Transmigrated Into the Vicious Stepmother in a Historical Novel - Chapter 152

TL: The author seems to be changing to using the children’s true names from nicknames. The “big brother Lu Chen” are the words from the raw, possibly because the author was worried that the readers would forget their arrangement (Eldest Brother, Second Brother…)

Big Brother Lu Chen’s words made complete sense, leaving Lu Ting unable to refute them.

Unexpectedly, it was Sheng Fei who had taught Big Brother Lu Chen those words. After Big Brother Lu Chen spoke, not only did Lu Ting laugh, but the children laughed as well.

“Was it all Sheng Fei who told you that? I didn’t expect that phrase to be so classic. Money is not saved, but earned.

How is it that at such a young age you already want to earn money to spend on me? How much money can you earn? What do you want to do in the future?”

Big Brother Lu Chen hadn’t figured it out yet, but he felt that since Sheng Fei and Lu Ting could earn money, and Big Brother Lu Chen’s personality was particularly outgoing and cheerful and could get along well with his classmates, earning money shouldn’t be too difficult. Big Brother Lu Chen vouched for himself.

“In the future, I can sell things. I go buy them myself and sell them. Anyway, Auntie said that I will definitely earn a lot of money in the future, and then I will buy a house and a car for Auntie, buy lots of delicious food and fun things for Auntie.”

Big Brother Lu Chen’s language was very childlike and his expression was especially innocent.

But having this mindset made Lu Ting very happy.

Ruffling Big Brother Lu Chen’s head, Lu Ting gave him a thumbs up and praised him.

“I didn’t expect the eldest brother to have this mindset! In the future, I’ll be basking in your glory. If you earn a lot of money in the future, would you only give Sheng Fei a share, leaving nothing for your little uncle?”

“There is, there is. You all have been so good to me, so in the future the money I earn will definitely all be yours to spend.”

“Such a good boy.”

Big Brother Lu Chen looked at Lu Ting and the other children with a smile.

The expression on his face was very proud, as if showing off to his brothers and sister that he had been praised by Lu Ting.

Second Brother Lu Ye pouted, looking somewhat unhappy.

Feeling that Lu Ting only noticed Big Brother Lu Chen and not him, he tugged on Lu Ting’s clothes and said dissatisfiedly.

“Uncle, you only have eyes for eldest brother, you don’t see me. I also picked something for you. Eldest brother picked clothes for you, and I picked shoes for you. Auntie said this pair of shoes is especially good. It can be used for daily exercise, work, and even hiking. The material is also imported from abroad.”

Second Brother Lu Ye shoved the shoe box in front of Lu Ting like presenting a treasure, almost hitting Lu Ting’s face.

Lu Ting caught the box and opened it, finding that it was indeed as Second Brother Lu Ye described.

This pair of shoes was absolutely new and would cost at least one or two hundred yuan.

In this era, that was quite a hefty sum.

Lu Ting touched the shoes. He didn’t expect Sheng Fei to be so generous, actually buying such expensive items.

“These shoes do look good, the gray and black color combination, but they are too expensive. You said that the clothes you bought were so nice, so it’s fine to just wear them. But shoes don’t need to be this good, right?”

“Uncle, you don’t know this. People need to wear good shoes to protect their feet, wearing good shoes won’t rub your feet.”

Second Brother Lu Ye seemed to know that Lu Ting would say this, so he hurriedly explained to Lu Ting.

Lu Ting pinched Second Brother Lu Ye’s nose.

“These words are also taught to you by Sheng Fei. I didn’t expect her to even know what I want to say.”

“Yes, according to Auntie’s words, this is called foresight.”

Second Brother Lu Ye happily bared his two rows of teeth in a grin at Lu Ting.
