After rebirth, I rejected the rich yandere lady

"But Sister, earning money is also very hard for you, you write all sorts of things every night until very late, and you also bought mom and me so many beautiful clothes, but you didn't buy any for yourself. I'm very content now, I can't always spend your money. In the future, when I grow up, I will go and earn money with Brother Xu too, hehe!"

The little girl showed a satisfied and hopeful smile. Compared to the days when they might go hungry at any moment in the past, now they could eat meat not just during festivals, wear new clothes, afford medical care if sick, and live in a house that didn't leak...

Their life was now very, very happy!

Zhao Lianmai stroked her little sister's head; lately, this kiddo had been talking about growing up to work for Brother Xu every day.

Really, such small ambitions...

Zhao Lianmai smiled, but it was true, since they met Xu Musen, they started having the life they now enjoyed. Wasn't she the same?

As long as he didn't fire her, working for him for a lifetime wasn't out of the question.

She took out the red envelope she had just put away and handed it to her sister.

"A red envelope?"

"It's from your Brother Xu." Zhao Lianmai said with a smile.

The little girl's eyes instantly lit up, she looked around: "Is Brother Xu also here?"

"He's already left, this red envelope is for your New Year's money."

"Really!"

The little girl took the red envelope, turned around happily, treasuring it as if it was the most precious thing.

Zhao Lianmai indulgently asked: "Aren't you going to open it and see how much money is inside?"

The little girl held the red envelope to her chest like a treasure, her little head shaking like a rattle: "New Year's money, even if it's just one cent, it's the thought that counts, all these years, besides Sister and Mom, this is the first time anyone has given me New Year's money... Wishing luck and fortune for the new year!"

The little girl was naively romantic, but every word and sentence conveyed the purest blessings.

Isn't happiness just as simple as that?

"Sister, did you finish your egg tart?" The little girl still had a bit of a sweet tooth.

Zhao Lianmai's gaze drifted to a corner in the distance, where two figures stood, one being pampered, grudgingly and skillfully clinging onto the other's arm.

The towering figure was indignant yet indulgent, walking shoulder to shoulder into the crowd.

Zhao Lianmai blankly zoned out for a second or two, then shook her head slightly and curved her lips.

"Just now, a starving beggar snatched it and ate it."

"Ah?" The little girl was surprised for a moment, then looked down at the pastry in her hand: "Did he... eat enough?"

Zhao Lianmai was stunned, then couldn't help but laugh: "He snatched my stuff and I still need to worry if he ate enough?"

"You have a red envelope and he chose only to snatch food, he must have been really hungry. I've been hungry before too, I know that feeling is very uncomfortable, did he go far? I can give him some food..." The little girl looked at her pastry, which she hadn't been willing to eat first, but her eyes were exceptionally sincere.

Zhao Lianmai looked at her sister for a long time, her heart ached with a bit of pride; a person's kindness is always the most beautiful quality.

She gently caressed her sister's cheek: "Don't worry, that beggar won't starve... He should be finding a home soon. Sister, it's good to be kind, but you also have to make sure you don't go hungry, alright?"

"Mm-hmm! I got it, Sister. I'm going to be just like you, just like Brother Xu, making sure people around me live better and better!"

The little girl's lips now often carried a name.

Zhao Lianmai looked at her sister's admiring and hopeful eyes; it was just like herself when she first met Xu Musen in university.

Suddenly, she shook her head and with a trace of a smile, gently grabbed her sister's hand and walked forward: "You, don't keep bringing him up every day."

"But Brother Xu is really nice, and so gentle too."

"He is nice and gentle, but... he's also very good at bullying people, especially girls."

Zhao Lianmai's tone was a bit complex.

"Ah? How does he bully?"

The little girl blinked with interest.

Zhao Lianmai thought for a moment and decided to give her sister a precautionary warning in a roundabout way.

"It's like... being nice to you, so nice that you gradually can't do without him. For instance, cooking for you, taking you shopping, sharing your joys, venting with you when you're upset, and always involving you in his career, giving you everything... and when you can no longer do without him, he's like... always snatching other things to eat as if he's never full."

Zhao Lianmai said, but her sister slightly furrowed her pretty brows, then suddenly her eyes shone with desire: "Sister, I want to be bullied by him too..."

"..."

Zhao Lianmai looked at her sister's expression, patted her forehead, had she caused the opposite effect?

She was a bit helpless, then resignedly smiled.

Forget it, that guy, let him take care of his things for now.

"Let's go, this year Sister will buy you lobster to eat."

"Is it like that mean big lobster next to the fat catfish in the 'Adventures of the Little Carp'?"

"Yeah, today we're going to eat this naughty big lobster!"

"Yay, yay!"

She led her sister in the opposite direction of Xu Musen, and they walked out of the gate.

Outside was bright and sunny~

...

"Buy a house? You mean the villa we used to live in?"

During dinner at night, Father Xu and Mother Xu were surprised and very excited.

"Yes, right across from Ming Yue's house."

Xu Musen smiled and pointed out the window, to the villa across the street no more than a few meters from the corner, right opposite Yao Mingyue's family home.
