I bought a secret manual of the Hehuan Sect for ten yuan.

"Steal...steal the young?!"

"Eight hundred thousand?!"

"Little melon, are you serious?"

Qin Shun was completely taken aback when he saw Yang Xiaomeng counting out stacks of banknotes.

"Little one, listen to your uncle first. I don't know why you suddenly have so much money, but no matter how rich you are, you can't do this!"

"Listen to your uncle, pay back whatever you borrow. Save your money for when you get married and have children."

"Uncle has heard that city people are different from us in this mountain village. They want a car, a house, and hundreds of thousands of yuan in dowry to get married. You'd better be careful with your money!"

Qin Shun earnestly lectured Qin Ge, and Yang Xiaomeng, who was counting money on the side, blushed inexplicably when she heard his words. She miscounted and had to count again.

"Uncle Shun, don't worry!" Qin Ge said with a smile, "This isn't all my money. I'm saving it, and I'll earn even more in the future!"

"I'm giving this to you, so please accept it. It's not just money, it's a token of my appreciation and a way of repaying your kindness."

"In my opinion, your kindness deserves a better life!"

Qin Ge pulled Qin Shun aside and whispered in his ear, "Uncle Shun, if you don't take it, how can the others have the nerve to take it? You're going to incur public wrath."

After saying that, he picked up a bag, put the money that Yang Xiaomeng had counted in it, and stuffed it into Qin Shun's hand.

When Qin Shun actually received the 800,000 yuan, everyone in the courtyard erupted in cheers.

Those watching from outside the courtyard were filled with regret.

Eight hundred thousand? How many years of farming would it take to accumulate eight hundred thousand?

They all felt regretful and disappointed, saying that if they really wanted to, how many of them couldn't come up with ten or eight thousand?

It's a pity they missed out on this incredible fortune; they were so disappointed they could have kicked themselves.

Some people in the courtyard also regretted that they hadn't lent enough.

Apart from Qin Shun, the villagers borrowed only a few hundred yuan at a time. They did borrow, but they all kept some of it to themselves.

Qin Ge knew this, of course, but he didn't care.

It's rare to find people like Qin Shun and Yang Xiaomeng who are willing to go to great lengths to help; we can't judge everyone by their standards.

Judging by actions, not intentions, if someone borrows from you, that's it, no matter how much or how little, and he's willing to repay a hundredfold.

Yang Xiaomeng's friends all looked at her with gratitude, because the money they lent to her was not to Qin Ge, but to Yang Xiaomeng.

Yang Xiaomeng could have secretly taken 1.6 million from Qin Ge, then returned 16,000 to them, and at most treated them to a big meal, which would have been very appreciated.

But Yang Xiaomeng did not do that.

This was actually something Qin Ge had in mind; he had other plans for Yang Xiaomeng.

The purpose of this was to help Yang Xiaomeng make more good friends in Nancheng County so that she wouldn't be bullied in the future.

"Qin Gua!"

"You little beast, get out here right now!"

Qin Ping's wife, Tao, stormed over, carrying a bamboo broom.

She had just returned from the fields when she heard that her husband had been scolded and beaten by Qin Gua, so she came over with a broom to confront him.

But she was stunned when she saw what was happening in the yard.

Qin Ge glanced at Tao Shi, ignored her, and continued distributing money.

Tao didn't even bother to settle scores with Qin Ge; she immediately asked around to find out what had happened.

When she learned everything, her eyes nearly popped out of their sockets. "Pay back a hundred times the amount!"

Qin Shun received 800,000 yuan all by himself!

A barrage of information assaulted her brain, making her feel dizzy and disoriented.

Many people felt resentful seeing others receive money, so they took the opportunity to make fun of Tao.

It is said that Qin Gua has become successful. Qin Ping and Qin An are brothers, and their family should have benefited from it, but unfortunately they missed the opportunity and let outsiders profit from it.

Unexpectedly, immense wealth fell from the sky, but unfortunately, Qin Ping's family managed to evade it at all costs.

Tao was already feeling terrible, and hearing others make such a joke almost made him vomit blood on the spot.

She threw the broom aside, staring at Qin Ge in the yard, her mind in turmoil.

As the money on the table dwindled, Tao finally couldn't hold back any longer.

She walked straight up to Qin Ge, a fawning smile plastered on her face. "Little melon, still busy?"

"Why don't you call your auntie when you eat?"

Qin Ge glanced at her and said indifferently, "Do you have something to say? If you do, say it. If not, please leave. You're not welcome here!"

Tao's lips twitched, but she tried to maintain a smile. "Little melon, your uncle told me that it's all just a misunderstanding."

"Your uncle said he's only doing this for your own good, so as his nephew, you absolutely mustn't hold it against him!"

"We're all family, there's no need to hold a grudge overnight. The misunderstanding will be cleared up."

"I've had high hopes for you since you were little. I never imagined you'd be so successful even before finishing university. Your aunt and uncle treated you very well when you were young, don't you remember?"

As she spoke, her gaze would occasionally drift to the bright red banknotes on the table, her eyes filled with fervor.

"Really?" Qin Ge teased deliberately, "My memory isn't very good. Can you help me recall exactly what things were done to me that were kind to me?"

"Yes!" Tao answered decisively, but after racking his brains for a long time, he couldn't think of anything specific.

Her eyes suddenly lit up, filled with pride, "I gave your family an egg when you were born!"

Upon hearing this, everyone in the room was stunned for a moment, and then all eyes turned to Tao.

The look in his eyes seemed to ask: Is an egg such a big deal?

"If you don't believe me, ask your parents!" Tao added, thinking that no one believed her.

"I see!" Qin Ge said thoughtfully, admitting that he had underestimated Tao's shamelessness.

"If one egg is multiplied by a hundred, that's a hundred eggs. I'll give you two dollars each!"

Qin Ge pulled out two banknotes and handed them to Tao Shi, saying, "Go on, from now on, our two families have absolutely no connection whatsoever!"

Everyone burst into laughter, and Su Wenxi choked on her drink and coughed violently.

"You brat! You've got some nerve, just you wait!" Tao grabbed the two banknotes and stormed off in a huff.

She was furious because she only received two hundred yuan, while Qin Shun received eight hundred thousand!

Qin An and Jiang Xue remained silent throughout, only sighing inwardly.

They didn't hate Qin Ping's family, but they were still heartbroken.

"Hey! Qin Gua, I heard you've struck it rich and are handing out money to everyone?"

"How about it? Give me a few million to spend too?"

No sooner had Tao left than Huang Sheng appeared, accompanied by Huang Hui and several of his underlings, a cigarette dangling from his mouth, swaggering with an air of arrogance.

"Your father is dying, and you still have the heart to throw a feast and hand out money here. How filial you are!"

"Or are you arranging your father's funeral in advance?"

Huang Sheng heard the commotion at Qin Ge's house and came over with Huang Hui and the others. They didn't even notice Qin An sitting there when they entered.

He asked someone at the hospital to inquire about Qin An's condition and concluded that it was impossible for Qin An to recover and be discharged at this time.

"Qin'an?!"

Huang Sheng only noticed when he got closer that Qin An was sitting not far from Qin Ge, and his face changed drastically as if he had seen a ghost.
