“A hundred bucks a month? Is there more? Then won’t Colonel Lu’s wife’s salary be higher than his?” Those people had awkward expressions on their faces.
They thought that a man was strong. No matter how capable a woman was, she could not beat a man. It was customary for a man to earn a high income at home. It was abnormal for a woman to do better than a man and make more money. That couple would suffer because of that.
No man would like a woman who was better than them, and no woman would like a man who was not as good as them.
“I don’t know how much our teachers earn, and I’m not a teacher either. I’m just a graduate student who just passed the entrance exam. I’m my teacher’s assistant, not an employee of the school. My teacher pays my salary. A new assistant like me does not eam much, but I don’t care how much money it is.
After all, Iam still a student.” Jiang Yao quickly explained as she looked at those people who seemed like they wanted to turn her pockets inside out to see how much money she had.
Those people did not want to steal her money; they were just too curious about other people’s personal matters.
That was normal, but Jiang Yao was a little conflicted.
She did not like people asking her personal questions, and she would never ask others how much money they earned in a month.
That was not polite.
“Really?”
“These ladies obviously do not believe you. If you don’t have much money, can you afford to use a cell phone? The phone bill costs a lot per month, right? How can Colonel Lu spend money like that?”
Jiang Yao thought for a moment and could only give them another explanation. “My husband’s family is rich.”
Then, she smiled as she waited for the but to arrive. She wanted to let them know that she did not lack money to spend. Otherwise, everyone would pay attention to Lu Xingzhi’s salary and wonder where she got her money.
Jiang Yao’s answer instantly made everyone quiet down. It was a little heart-wrenching for those who still had problems purchasing daily necessities.
Those with financial problems would naturally develop a kind of envy and jealousy toward the rich. Therefore, they all felt they were a little out of place with Colonel Lu’s wife, just like the gap between the rich and the poor.
Jiang Yao did not care about their opinion, but she was clear where everyone stood on that matter.
‘The bus arrived at the station a few minutes later. After everyone got on the bus, Ye Jianguo stood beside Jiang Yao and continued to talk to Jiang Yao. She was the only one not affected by Jiang Yao’s words.
“Are you going to school or somewhere else?” Ye Jianguo asked. “I’m going back to school to find someone. If you are heading there, we can go together.”
“Tm going to the market to buy some vegetables. I’m not going back to school.” Jiang Yao shook her head. She was glad that she was not going back to school. Otherwise, with Ye Jianguo’s noisy personality, she would be annoyed all the way.
‘When the bus reached the downtown area, the sun was already shining so brightly that people could barely open their eyes. Jiang Yao asked for directions and went straight to the first market.
Ye Jianguo, who was supposed to head to school, turned around and went to Ye Xueli’s dormitory to look for her.
Even though they had the same parents, Ye Xueli and her younger brother Ye Jianguo did not have a good relationship. Ye Xueli had always thought that her younger brother was a little silly. He could get along well with their stepmother and another younger brother at home. She felt that Ye Jianguo was
not someone who would stand on her side..
