Of course, the five hundred yuan is not only pocket money, but also includes household expenses, such as buying vegetables, meat, and clothes, but it doesn't cost much.

In fact, my brother would bring meat and fruits from time to time, and the family couldn't finish all the food. A lot of it was given to Sister Xiang, our tutor, who took it back to school and distributed it to classmates.

Also, my brother pays for the school fees and pays for our clothes and shoes. He always buys them for us, which makes my sister always complain that he spends too much money.

Anyway, my sister's monthly pocket money of 500 yuan can hardly be spent. She saves it carefully, saying that she will save it for future use.

Humph, if you ask me, my brother is so rich that he doesn’t care about a few hundred yuan, but my sister is too stingy, even though she has money, she doesn’t spend it. Even if I want to buy a new dress, she won’t let me.”

Upon hearing this, Qiao Erqiang stopped talking and looked at each other with his eldest brother Qiao Yicheng.

After taking a deep breath, Qiao Erqiang asked: "Simei, is everything you said true?"

"Of course it is true." Qiao Simei nodded, "I have seen it with my own eyes and experienced it myself, how can it not be true?"

"He's not that old, how can he get so much money?" Qiao Yicheng asked with a frown, "It couldn't have been left to him by his parents, right? If he keeps going like this, he'll be ruined sooner or later."

"No way." Qiao Simei shook her head, "Brother Cao's parents didn't leave much money to Brother Cao. Brother Cao's current career and his money were all earned by himself.

Don't you know, Brother Cao was a famous poet before, and one poem could be sold for a lot of money.

Later, I heard that he was appreciated by some big leader, and then he gave Brother Cao a chance to become the general manager and vice president of the publishing house.

Then, for some reason, my brother was made the president and became the top leader.

That Uncle Chen, my future adoptive father, is just Brother Cao's subordinate.

He adopted me after listening to my brother Cao's orders.

Because Brother Cao is not qualified to adopt me, only Uncle Chen is qualified.

So, even if I am adopted, I don't have to be separated from my sister. I will still live in her house.

By the way, Brother Cao also said that when my sister grows up, if she doesn't dislike it, she will leave that house to her.

Then I live with my sister, what do I have to worry about?"

At this moment, Cao Lili suddenly appeared at the door of the toilet: "Ah, why are you still here? Is the toilet so beautiful? You stay in it and never come out?"

"Sister!" Qiao Simei said with a smile, "I said you have five hundred yuan of pocket money every month, but they don't believe it. Please tell the eldest brother and the second brother, is it true?"

Cao Lili frowned: "Why are you talking about this?"

Qiao Simei pursed her lips: "It's not like I can't tell you. Why don't you tell me if you have an upright background? Besides, I didn't tell outsiders. I told the eldest and second brothers. Can't they tell me too?"

Qiao Yicheng looked at Cao Lili, who was frowning: "Sanli, is what Simei said true? Do you really have five hundred yuan of pocket money every month? It's all given by Brother Cao.

?”

Cao Lili frowned and looked at Qiao Yicheng, then at Qiao Simei, and finally looked at Qiao Yicheng again and nodded: "Yes, it's true."

Qiao Yicheng frowned again: "He spends money so lavishly, does he have the right reason? Where did he get so much money?"

Cao Lili said: "The money he earns from writing books is all royalties. There is absolutely no problem with his source."

"Write a book?" Qiao Yicheng frowned, "Can you make money by writing a book?"

"It doesn't seem to be the case." Cao Lili shook her head, "No one else makes as much money from writing books as he does. He is a famous poet. It seems that many people like his poems. It is said that the big boss also likes his poems, so he was allowed to be a poet.

The leadership of the publishing house.

Well, after he became the leader of the publishing house, it is said that he did a good job and built a great career in a short period of time.

It was because of this that he quickly transitioned from vice president to president.

Anyway, that’s all I know.”

After a pause, Cao Lili added: "Brother, I know what you are worried about, but don't worry, I have been with Brother Cao for the longest time, and I still know him better.

Although he seemed a bit unreliable in the past, he has completely changed since Mother Lin passed away.

Now Brother Cao has changed so much that I don’t even recognize him, but one thing is that he is very good to me and Simei. He really treats us as his own children and his own sisters. He has never done anything short of us, right?

We also love them very much.

Also, everything that Brother Cao did was achieved bit by bit by his own ability, not charity from others.

In short, Brother Cao is a very capable man and seems to be born to do great things.

You don’t have to worry about him treating us badly, and you don’t have to worry about his money coming from the wrong way.

In terms of self-discipline, Brother Cao sees things clearly than anyone else. Anyway, he never does anything that is illegal.

So, big brother and second brother, you really don’t have to worry about me and Simei.

After Simei returns to the capital with me, I will only live a good life and will not treat her badly."

"That's it." Qiao Yicheng lowered his head and squinted at the floor tiles, "It seems that Brother Cao is your real adoptive father."

Cao Lili nodded: "Although it doesn't sound good to say this, it is the fact.

Brother Cao actually paid for all the food, clothing, housing and transportation expenses for Simei and I in the capital.

He not only provided money, but also contributed. For example, it was Brother Cao who arranged for Simei to go to school on loan.

Although he is not my eldest brother, he really has nothing to say about what Simei and I did.

So brother, you really don’t have to worry, brother Cao is really a good person, he’s really kind to us, and he won’t treat us badly.”

Qiao Yicheng nodded thoughtfully, then raised his head again and smiled slightly at Cao Lili: "Well, since you said so, of course I believe you."

"Thank you, brother." Cao Lili smiled slightly, "Don't worry, brother, if you miss me and Simei, just write to me or call me!

Then, when the holiday comes, I will definitely ask Brother Cao to help and find a way to bring my sister and I back to see you.

Don’t worry, although the distance from Beijing to Nanjing is quite long, which is difficult for others, for Brother Cao, this distance is not a problem at all.”

"Yes, yes!" Qiao Simei said with a smile, "The flight is very fast, it didn't take long to arrive, and there was plenty to eat and drink, so it was very comfortable."

"Take a plane?" Qiao Er said forcefully, "It's impossible to take a plane every time, right? It would be so expensive."

Qiao Simei pouted and said: "Humph, Brother Cao said that for him, flying is no different than taking a three-wheel drive. It's not expensive at all. The cost of a plane ticket is probably not as good as a meal for him."

"So powerful?" Qiao Erqiang was stunned.

"Okay, okay!" Cao Lili interrupted Qiao Simei's showoff, "Don't show off. That's because Brother Cao loves us. It doesn't mean that it's what you deserve. Stop showing off, it's embarrassing.

.”

"Haha." Qiao Yicheng smiled slightly, "No matter what, he is very good to you and can make you live a good life. That's good, that's good."

"Oh, what a pity." Qiao Simei sighed.

"It's a pity that the eldest brother and the second brother can't live with us. It would be great if we could still live together. In that case, we don't have to separate, we can still live a good life in the capital, and we no longer have to drink every day like we did in the past.

Let’s eat porridge and noodles.”

"Stop talking!" Cao Lili glared at Qiao Simei, "Simei, you are getting more and more outrageous!

Come on, come out with me. Don't stay in the toilet all the time. What do you mean?

Everyone, come out, let’s go out and drink soda.”

Qiao Simei made a face, then finally kept silent, and then followed Cao Lili out of the bathroom.

Qiao Erqiang quickly followed him out, waiting to drink the soda Cao Lili mentioned.

Qiao Yicheng, on the other hand, did not leave the toilet immediately. Instead, he narrowed his eyes and looked at the exquisite bathtub again.

"Continuing to live together? It sounds pretty good."
