Did You Get Beaten? Yes (3)
Just with rough assumptions, if she smashed a plate or cut apart a hat, then Grandma would spank her. If she wanted to make Grandma hate her to the bones and remember it for life, she’d probably have to dig out the house’s foundation.
That’s too tiring.
She didn’t want to move. If the house collapsed, she would have no place to live.
The system did not force her.
Achievement task was not a main task, nor was it a side task for earning points. It was just an achievement. Generally speaking, it was difficult to complete.
If she could do it, that’s great. If not, then it’s fine. The system had learned to take the initiative to excuse the host.
If you wanted to talk about working hard, then who wasn’t working hard? That was what the system thought.

It was getting colder and colder.
Jiang Xing finally stopped being so busy when the New Year’s Eve was approaching and Xiaoman was having her winter vacation.
He had made a lot of profit from the business. Although he had not moved from his house to live in a villa, the house in the city now had a landline installed and a refrigerator. He also covered Fragrance’s pen with a roof and fencing. It looked more and more exquisite and beautiful.
It was so beautiful that Jiang Xiaoman wished her body could shrink a little bit so she could get in and play with Fragrance.
After Jiang Xing came back, he gave her a big red envelope.
“Wow!” Jiang Xiaoman exclaimed as she looked at the thick stack of money in her hand.
She had never counted so many red-colored bills. It was a lot of money!
From now on, she could eat meat, make phone calls, and invite Yu Qingshi to beef noodles as much as she wanted! She could even pay for extra beef!
Jiang Xing said, “I, Your Uncle, had beaten that little pretty boy so badly he had to throw away his armor and angrily run back to his in-laws. How shameful.”
Jiang Xing experienced a lot of ups and downs this year.
Fortunately, the Heavens still granted him luck, and his strong opponent was eventually defeated.
When he heard that the little pretty boy was leaving the city in anger and returned to his in-laws, he was so happy he couldn’t sleep. He mocked him under the guise of seeing him off.
Finally, he managed to see his face when his in-laws ridiculed him.
That scene was chaotic, but also felt very refreshing.
Jiang Xiaoman also put her hands on her waist and scolded, “So shameful.”
After that, she remembered that she hadn’t seen the pretty boy that her Uncle kept mentioning. Who was it?
By the way, what was a pretty boy?
Since she couldn’t figure it out, she didn’t dwell on it for long. She never made life harder for herself.
She counted her money happily. But before she could finish, it was taken away by Grandma!
Jiang Xiaoman was unhappy and said, crying a little, “Grandma, that’s the New Year’s money that Uncle gave me… He said that the New Year is coming soon.”
“I know. Here, for you.” Jiang Xiumei pulled a sheet of Grandpa Mao1 and added1 yuan. It could count as giving New Year’s money.
Xiaoman looked at her New Year’s money that had shrunk many, many times and cried.
“Grandma is mean! You robbed my New Year’s money! You never did this before!!”
How could it be the same now?’
Back in the village, the red envelopes she received were just a few cents and didn’t add up to much. So they were treated as her allowance, for her to buy some snacks.
But when Jiang Xing gave her a few thousand Yuan, how could she let the child hold so much money?
Confiscated.
Jiang Xiaoman finally had the childhood experience of having New Year’s money confiscated.
New Year’s was near, and it was customary to go back to one’s hometown to celebrate it. They had no relatives in the city, and the New Year atmosphere was not very strong. Jiang Xiumei quickly told the kids to pack up to go back to the village.
In addition to her textbooks and homework, Jiang Xiaoman also brought the little red flowers from kindergarten.
She wanted to take them back and show them to Teacher Tang. Even when she was in the city, she was still very obedient and hardworking, not letting down his teaching!
She was very awesome!
It was not easy to take Fragrance, so it was sent to the pet shop for a while.
When she left, Jiang Xiaoman wiped her tears and reluctantly said goodbye to Fragrance through the glass window.
The pigs at home were raised by the grandma next door, and it was practically half given to her. It was just that she also had her own pigs and couldn’t afford to raise two sows, so after hearing that the Jiang family was coming back for New Year, the two families discussed and decided to slaughter the pig.
The pig was divided into two, and half of it was given to the grandma next door, while the other half was for the Jiang family’s New Year.
When Jiang Xiaoman returned to the village, what greeted her was Mrs. Flower’s body.
Poor Mrs. Flower, after losing her beloved daughters one after the other, it also finally became this year’s New Year Pig.
