97 An Accident At Home
Xia Ye snorted disdainfully. “Sure. You said it yourself. Don’t go back on your word when the time comes!”
Xia Ye was quite familiar with Xia Wan’s academic performance. It was already the second semester of her second year in high school. Xia Wan’s previous academic performance had been very poor, so it was impossible for her to catch up. Besides, most of the studying would be done in her first and second years of high school. The third year was just a process of consolidation.
Xia Ye did not think that she would lose. Instead, she felt that Xia Wan’s suggestion was stupid.
Xia Wan nodded. “Okay, as long as you agree.”
Xia Wan then looked at the students beside Xia Ye and said, “You guys can be our witnesses. I made a bet with her. Don’t let anyone go back on their word.”
These students were all on good terms with Xia Ye, so when they heard Xia Wan’s words, they naturally spoke up for Xia Ye. Looking down at Xia Wan, they said, “Don’t worry. You’ll definitely be the one to write the reflection letter. It won’t be Xia Ye. Everyone in school knows that your grades are terrible.”
Seeing that Xia Wan was being slandered, Xia Feng couldn’t help but retort, “Stop looking down on her. My sister is brilliant!”
Although his sister earned so much money, these people still looked down on her. Xia Feng felt that these people were the real fools.
After making the bet with Xia Ye, Xia Wan was no longer in the mood to continue eating. She paid the money and left.
After Xia Wan left, Xia Ye stared at her back with a vicious expression.
Xia Wan and the other two found a quiet alley and began to check the money. The three formed a circle as though afraid that others would see them.
“1000, 2000, 3000!” Xia Chen counted the money, and his voice couldn’t help but rise.
He had followed Xia Wan into the store to purchase the clothes, so he knew it had only cost them a little over 1000 yuan in total. They were now sold for over 3000 yuan, double the original price!
And they sold the clothes very quickly. In just one day, everything was sold out. Xia Chen wouldn’t have believed it if he didn’t see it with his own eyes.
Xia Feng’s eyes widened as he listened to his brother’s count. Even though he had helped collect money today, he had only collected a couple of dozen yuan or a hundred yuan for each piece of clothing. Now, he counted the money in the thousands.
After all, his father could only earn 300 yuan a month from hard labor, but his sister could earn seven months’ worth after selling clothes for a day.
Xia Wan smiled happily, but she still said to Xia Chen and Xia Feng, “We still need this money for more goods. Only by constantly buying and selling can we make a decent profit.”
She had to instill in her brothers the idea of using money to make money so they wouldn’t be stuck in the current situation. When school started, she would be in her third year and be busy with her studies. She would have to leave the business to her brother Xia Chen, and Xia Feng as a helper. Besides, Xia Wan felt that Xia Feng was actually more cunning than Xia Chen. She had to rely on Xia Feng for some petty tricks.
Her brother Xia Chen was just too honest.
Xia Feng and Xia Chen both smiled and nodded. we understand.
After counting the money, the three of them walked home, feeling like they were floating on a cloud.
Soon, they arrived at the door. However, before they got close, they heard Xia Ru’s curses.
“It’s useless. Dad, Mom, I’ve been soaking in the bath for three hours. Xia Wan must be lying to you. She doesn’t want me to get better!
“I don’t care. I want to get treated. I want to go to the city. How can you do this to me? My face is almost disfigured!
“Are you my real parents? Why can’t you spend that little money instead of just watching me suffer?”
Xia Ru wailed and moaned as she started to cry.
Xia Wan and the other two could hear the commotion clearly from outside the door.
“Sister,” Xia Chen looked at Xia Wan and asked. “Didn’t you give her the correct prescription?”
Xia Wan smiled. the prescription I gave her is definitely correct, but I’m not sure if she followed it.
As she spoke, Xia Wan pushed the door open.
Seeing that Xia Wan had returned, Xia Ru glared at her with bloodshot eyes. She looked at Xia Wan as if she was looking at an enemy.
“Xia Wan, you still have the face to come back! I followed the prescription you gave me, but it was useless. I’m still itchy all over, and you made me suffer like this, soaking in this wooden bucket with everyone staring at me. You’re making me look like a fool.”
“Why would I listen to you? You’re a vicious girl!”
