How to Tame a God and the Lucky Beasts-Chapter 82 - 83: 200,000

Chapter 82

Chapter 82: Chapter 83: 200,000
Wang Xiaoyuan’s aunt had nothing more to say. She really hadn’t expected that Wang Xiaoyuan would be a few months younger than her own daughter. The things she just said...
The aunt was about to speak, but Wang Xiaoyuan didn’t give her a chance to open her mouth and argue again.
"Aunt, you said this is a good marriage, so let Xiao Ning marry into that family, after all, she’s my cousin, I can’t take such a good match from her."
The aunt was completely furious: "You’re such an ungrateful wolf! All these years you’ve eaten my food and worn my clothes, now you still want to hurt my daughter! You have no conscience! How did the Wang family produce such a heartless thing like you!"
Wang Xiaoyuan quietly watched her aunt throwing a tantrum nearby, listening to her claims of her attempting to harm her daughter, and retorted:
"Aunt, didn’t you say this was an excellent match? This family is wealthy, and there’s no rush to have children."
The aunt’s tantrum paused, indeed it was her own words, but those words were meant for Wang Xiaoyuan.
Anyone with eyes could see it was a trap, if it were her own daughter, who would agree to marry into such a family?! She even heard from others that it wasn’t the man’s ex-wife who cheated, but that she was literally beaten away by him!
How could her daughter marry into such a family!
But that family said that as long as the marriage was finalized, they would give her two hundred thousand yuan.
That was two hundred thousand! You could buy a nice house in a small town with that kind of money, how could she watch the money fall into someone else’s hands?
So she thought of Wang Xiaoyuan.
Previously, she had introduced matches for Wang Xiaoyuan, but either Wang Xiaoyuan didn’t agree, or people didn’t like Wang Xiaoyuan, saying she was bad luck for her father and mother.
If it worked out this time, she wouldn’t just get the money, she could also solve the trouble of Wang Xiaoyuan... Her heart was moved, and she acted.
So today she called Wang Xiaoyuan back for this scene.
Who would have thought that this little brat Wang Xiaoyuan wouldn’t take the bait, a troublemaker indeed!
Back then, she shouldn’t have soft-heartedly taken her in!
Wang Xiaoyuan didn’t know her aunt’s series of thoughts, she only saw clearly again the reality of her aunt.
No matter how well she did, no matter how good she was to their family, she could never compare to her aunt’s own daughter.
Every time her aunt came to her for money, even though her own life was tough, she still gave her aunt money. Only yesterday she discovered that her aunt’s so-called urgent need for money was to buy a pair of pretty shoes for Xiao Ning.
Her uncle... was even worse. Ever since she arrived at this house, he never once gave her a good look.
But after all, it was her aunt who took in the homeless her, this kindness, plus the help of paying for her father’s medical bills back then, was enough to make up for their indifference towards her.
In recent years, her aunt’s family gradually became affluent, Wang Xiaoyuan’s life improved, and every month after necessary expenses, she also managed to save some money.
Since becoming an assistant for Ruan Xingwen, besides the salary from the company every month, Ruan Xingwen would also give her an additional sum of money.
After Ruan Xingwen learned about Wang Xiaoyuan’s family situation, each month he would give her extra pay from his own savings.
For a young girl fighting alone outside, having extra money for security was indeed good.
See, even an outsider cared for her, yet her aunt’s family...
Before returning to her aunt’s house, Wang Xiaoyuan had taken along her bank card with saved money, fearing her aunt’s family might really have issues.
Now, though knowing her aunt was okay, this money could still come in handy.
Wiping away tears at the corners of her eyes, Wang Xiaoyuan no longer hesitated and said firmly to the aunt sitting on the ground: "Aunt, this is the last time I call you this."
Wang Xiaoyuan stepped forward, helped the aunt up, and guided her to sit on the sofa.
She continued: "This family offered two hundred thousand to buy me, and you agreed? I thought over all these years, even people with little acquaintance should feel connected. In the end, I was wrong."
Sitting on the sofa, the aunt opened her mouth to speak, but not knowing what to say, she could only listen to Wang Xiaoyuan continue.
"Over the years, you’ve taken not a small sum from me, though each time wasn’t much, over the years, it’s not a minor amount. Let’s settle the accounts today."
Upon hearing Wang Xiaoyuan wanted to settle accounts, the aunt perked up; they had spent money raising Wang Xiaoyuan all these years, plus providing for her education, all these should be included!
This was Wang Xiaoyuan bringing it up herself; she couldn’t be blamed!
The aunt’s expression noticeably changed, but she restrained herself, not letting the satisfaction on her face show too obviously.
"It was you, Xiaoyuan, who brought this up, so let’s calculate it!"
But the aunt seemed to have forgotten how she treated Wang Xiaoyuan all these years.
Since Wang Xiaoyuan came to their house, all house chores were done by her, while she ate their leftovers every day. During school, she was given only a few yuan a day.
How could a few yuan be enough for a growing child to eat?
Every day, Wang Xiaoyuan ate steamed buns with plain water and pickles, making her grow thin and small before she turned sixteen.
This situation persisted until Wang Xiaoyuan entered high school.
She worked part-time while studying, finally covering her daily meal expenses, though not much, at least not only eating steamed buns and pickles like before.
Later, Wang Xiaoyuan got into college. That same year, her cousin Xiao Ning also got into college, though it was a third-rate one.
That year, her aunt’s family suddenly became wealthy, even Wang Xiaoyuan’s treatment improved. Tuition and living expenses were provided by her aunt. Though not much, it was a breath of relief for Wang Xiaoyuan then.
After graduating from college, Wang Xiaoyuan only occasionally returned to her aunt’s home. Each return, her aunt asked her for money.
Upon hearing from someone that celebrity assistants earn well, her aunt demanded repayment, asking to return the money advanced for her father’s treatment. After repaying, she was told to pay interest too.
That could be tolerated, believing her aunt at least gave her a home all these years, following her aunt’s price, she repaid.
After repayment, her aunt rarely contacted her. Today, receiving her aunt’s call, she thought something had indeed happened at home.
Unexpectedly, her aunt planned to sell her off, at a good price!
How ridiculous!
Wang Xiaoyuan, with a cold expression, said: "I came to my aunt’s home at twelve, now I’m twenty-five. I’ve lived in your house for thirteen years, you’re surely clear about the sustenance you’ve provided me."
Saying this, Wang Xiaoyuan took out a notebook from her bag, opened it, and placed it on the coffee table between them.
"Aunt, see for yourself, it’s all here, all the money you’ve spent on me over the years, including tuition and living expenses, recorded in this book."
The aunt sneered, "Seems you’re truly an ungrateful wolf, keeping accounts even with me!"
