Chapter 108: Chapter 108: The idiot who scored zero dares to skip class?
Xi Yuanshan didn’t allow Gu Qiusha to tell their three sons, who were working hard in their careers away from home, about his illness.
Gu Qiusha thought about how she had already saved up for her daughter’s college tuition, and selling her dowry would almost cover the treatment costs, so she agreed.
She couldn’t sleep all night.
In the morning, when Xi Zuzi was leaving for school, she saw her mother still lost in thought in front of the dressing table. Those pieces of jewelry were once her treasures in her youth, and now they were packed in bags, waiting for the second-hand dealer to come and buy them cheaply.
Especially an emerald bracelet, a coming-of-age gift from Gu Yuzhi on her 18th birthday, that she’d worn for years without taking off.
She rubbed it gently and couldn’t help but feel her eyes well up:
"It’s all my fault for not being ambitious. Why did I agree to Yuanshan’s request of not going out to work when we got married, focusing solely on the family?"
"If I had a career that earned money, I wouldn’t have to sell my brother’s things now, boo hoo..."
"So a woman really needs to have money, to have her own money..."
Xi Zuzi stood at the door, glancing silently, seemingly deep in thought.

Qingcheng High School.
The entire morning was two English classes back to back, focusing on the English papers for the Four School Joint Exam.
The English teacher, Fang Yumei, was the homeroom teacher for the Nanshan Class. She was young, spirited, and a graduate from the Imperial Foreign Language College, with a very Western and fashionable way of dressing.
She and the history teacher, Xing Yue, joined the school at the same time, but she was clearly more favored by the principal. The fact that she could be the homeroom teacher for the top students class showed the school’s emphasis on her. It’s said that male teachers lined up all the way to the school gate to pursue her, but she wasn’t interested in any of them.
Fang Yumei had declared that this year, the Nanshan Class would achieve the highest average score in the city and produce a top scorer in English for the province.
She hoped this provincial top scorer would be her proud student — the English class representative, Xi Ruzhu.
Fang Yumei’s ambitions were so high that she felt teaching the East Sea Class, filled with underachievers, was a waste of her precious time.
She didn’t have a pleasant expression throughout the entire class:
"You all are absolutely hopeless, couldn’t even answer the highlighted points before the exam. Is your brain made of mush?"
"Even if your brain isn’t sharp, can’t you at least memorize by rote?"
"An average score of below 50, and there’s even a zero!"
"The one who scored zero, stand up. I want to see what a pathetic sight you are, can’t even write a single letter, dumber than a pig?"
The entire class was silent under her scolding.
Fang Yumei’s gaze landed on the first row, at the empty seat in the middle.
Her anger flared immediately:
"Xi Zuzi! You dimwit who scored zero, how dare you skip class?!"

At this moment.
The little ancestor skipping class was standing outside a lottery booth, looking at the notice stating "Closed for three days as per superior orders."
Her eyes showed slight disappointment: "Little rat, making money still has to wait for the right day, huh..."
Next to her, Wu Minghao scratched his head: "Little ancestor, there are actually many ways to make money, not just buying lottery tickets."
Xi Zuzi: "Oh? Let’s hear them."
She just remembered Wang Laowu winning two million from the lottery; it seemed like easy money, and she hadn’t really paid attention to other ways.
Wu Minghao was full of enthusiasm: "Like stock trading, gambling on stones, lending from underground banks... so many avenues. Little ancestor, are you short on money lately? You don’t actually have to work so hard. How much do you need? I have some. My dad promised me 200,000 as spending money if I passed my exams. I can tweak the results a bit to meet his requirement, hehe..."
Xi Zuzi: "Not much, fifty million."
Wu Minghao gulped: "F-fifty million?!"
Even though he’s a rich second generation, he’s never handled such a huge sum of money, ah ah ah.
