The Fake Rich Daughter Knows a Bit of Metaphysics and Leads Her Whole Family to Become Wealthy - Chapter 3

Chapter 3: Receiving the First Reward

The phone was unusually quiet on the other end, and Jiang Zhixu couldn’t read her thoughts.

Just as she was about to say something else, the call was hung up.

Looking at the disconnected phone, Jiang Zhixu stroked 688’s fur, “Little Eight, do you think this will work? Should I call again to ask?”

688 enjoyed her petting, “Host, don’t worry, Mu Hua’s mission progress is already halfway done.”

Halfway done?
Jiang Zhixu couldn’t believe it. Was the mission really that simple?

After lunch, she was bored and decided to go out for a walk. Suddenly, she heard a commotion coming from a distance.

Jiang Zhixu turned her head to see a frail woman yelling at a middle-aged man, with police officers standing nearby.

“She’s my wife, isn’t she beautiful?” A soft voice came, and Jiang Zhixu realized that Mu Hua’s ghost had appeared beside her without her noticing.

“She used to be a school beauty, from a good family, but she ended up with a poor guy like me. And I couldn’t even give her a good life.” Mu Hua’s eyes were filled with endless sorrow, feeling like he had let her down and couldn’t take care of her.

“Now that I’m dead, she’s free from constraints, she’ll live well, right?”

“No.” Jiang Zhixu denied, her eyes filled with sadness, “She’ll feel heartbroken, feel like life has lost its hope.”

“I can tell she loves you very much, and her eyes still hold love for you.”

Mu Hua smiled, a warm and happy smile, “But I hope that in the next life, she’ll meet someone better, and won’t have to suffer with me again.”

“She deserves better.”

It seemed that his obsession had disappeared, and Mu Hua’s body gradually became transparent. He felt it too.

He looked down at Jiang Zhi Xu and sincerely thanked her, “Thank you for letting me see her again, thank you.”

Gradually, Mu Hua disappeared.

All he had wanted was to see his wife one more time.

[Ding! Mission completed, 500,000 has been transferred to your bank card, please check your account.]

[Newbie gift package activated, gift package has been sent, please check.]

On the other end, the woman’s sorrowful scream seemed to have sensed something, and she looked over this way.

But all she saw was a woman sitting in a wheelchair, looking at her with sad eyes.

Jiang Zhixu returned to her hospital room, took out her phone from under the pillow, and found a new bank card.

688: “The bank card issued by the system, all future payments will be in this card, and it’s already bound to your identity information.”

Jiang Zhixu stroked the bank card, still feeling like it was unbelievable, and decided to log in to online banking to check.

When Jiang Zhixu saw the amount on the bank card, she counted it over and over again, and even bought a box of tissues with the money. Finally, she believed it.

It was all real, everything was real.

She wasn’t dreaming.

This great fortune had finally fallen upon her!

Knowing she wasn’t dreaming, Jiang Zhixu was filled with energy and started seriously learning ghost-catching knowledge with 688. She also began drawing talismans and calculating fortunes.

During this period, she helped two more vengeful spirits find peace, earning 1 million and an electric car, as well as a pill that strengthened her body.

After taking the pill, she felt full of energy and vitality.
Half a month later, she removed the leg cast.

To avoid suspicion, Jiang Zhixu asked the system to create a cover-up, and then she sat in a wheelchair and returned to the Jiang family home with Jiang Zhiyu, who was on leave.

Even with mental preparation, she was slightly surprised when she saw the Jiang family home.

It was completely different from what Bai Liuli had described.

The outside looked like a typical old and dilapidated house, but the interior was warmly decorated.

“Zhizhi, you’re back.” Qin Mei, wearing an apron, saw Jiang Zhixu and nervously rubbed her hands.

“Are you hungry, mom… I made some lean meat porridge for you, do you want some?”

Noticing Qin Mei’s unease, Jiang Zhixu breathed out and smiled, “Okay, thank you, mom.”

Qin Mei’s eyes turned red at the sound of “mom”, and she trembled, but her lips quivered, “Yes, mom will go get it for you.”

“Xiao Yu, quickly push Zhizhi to the dining table, I’ll go get the porridge.”

Jiang Zhiyu’s gentle voice,”Okay.”

As he pushed Jiang Zhixu inside, he sat down in a chair.

“I thought you’d hate it here, since it’s not even comparable to the Bai family’s place.”

Jiang Zhixu turned to look at him, “Why would you think that, second brother?”

“This place may look old, but it’s warm and cozy, something the Bai family doesn’t have.”

“I really like it here.”

Jiang Zhiyu gazed at her, seemingly judging whether she was telling the truth.

In the end, he only saw joy and no sign of dishonesty.

“During your hospitalization, mom had to take care of dad and Xiao Lei, so she couldn’t visit you. Don’t be angry.” He awkwardly changed the subject.

Jiang Zhilei, half a year ago, had a racing accident and was now bedridden with partial paralysis, requiring constant care.

Their father also had mobility issues and needed assistance.

The family was in debt and couldn’t even afford a caregiver.

These were things Bai Liuli had once jokingly told her about.

It seemed the situation was quite serious.

Jiang Zhixu shook her head, “I won’t be angry, I’m not that petty.”

She took out a bank card from her pocket, “There’s 1 million in here, it’s the money I’ve saved over the years. Second brother, take it and use it.”

This card was a new one she had 688 help her open, and she would use it to give money to her family members from now on.

There was 1 million in it, and she had left 500,000 for herself in case of emergencies.

Looking at the bank card, Jiang Zhiyu didn’t take it, and instead smiled, “The Jiang family hasn’t fallen to the point where we need to use our daughter’s private savings to make ends meet.”

“Keep it for yourself.”

“Second brother, I still have money. Take it and buy things for dad and third brother. Consider it a gift from me to them.” Jiang Zhixu pushed the bank card into Jiang Zhiyu’s hands without giving him a choice.

“Take it, second brother. It’s just a small gesture from me.”

Jiang Zhiyu held the bank card, unsure of how to feel. He had thought Jiang Zhixu would despise this place, her parents, and her third brother, given her previous life and the potential disparity in their living situations.

But it seemed she didn’t, and instead offered her own savings to buy things for them.

“You’re really different from Bai Liuli.” He couldn’t help but sigh.

Jiang Zhixu stroked her long hair and smiled mischievously, “Second brother, how can you compare her to me?”

“Are you unhappy?” Jiang Zhiyu chuckled, “I was wrong.”

These two were completely incomparable.

Bai Liuli’s selfish nature was indeed incompatible with the Jiang family.

Thinking about everything the Bai family had done, it seemed that the bad genes in their bloodline couldn’t be changed by upbringing.

“Zhizhi, come, eat the porridge, and there’s some small dishes to go with it.” Qin Mei brought out the porridge and carefully handed her a spoon.

“Thank you, mom.” Jiang Zhixu picked up the spoon and ate slowly, “The taste is good, it’s my favorite flavor.”

Her bright eyes sparkled as she looked at Qin Mei, who was excitedly rubbing her hands, “As long as Zhizhi likes it, mom will make it for you again.”

“Okay, mom is the best.” Jiang Zhixu happily lowered her head to drink the porridge.

Jiang Zhiyu couldn’t help but speak up, “Mom, I want to eat too.”

Qin Mei: “Oh, serve yourself.”

The attitude was completely different from when she was with Jiang Zhixu.
Double standard, indeed.

Jiang Zhiyu pouted and got up to serve himself.

Jiang Zhixu smiled brightly.

After eating the porridge, Jiang Zhixu went to see her father, Jiang Shengnan. He was sitting in a chair, reading the newspaper, wearing a plain white shirt and glasses. From the side, he looked like a very handsome middle-aged man.

“Dad, I brought Zhizhi back.”

Jiang Shengnan put down the newspaper and looked up at Jiang Zhixu, slowly revealing a smile and waving at her.

“You’re back.”

Jiang Zhixu was pushed closer, “Dad… Dad.”

“Yeah, you look a lot like Ah Mei.” Jiang Shengnan looked at Jiang Zhixu with a gentle gaze, “I wonder how I didn’t notice that before.”

“Dad.” Jiang Zhi Xu boldly reached out and grasped Father Jiang’s hand, “It’s not dad’s fault, it’s just that the bad people are vicious.”

“Now that I’m back, we’ll live a good life together as a family.”

“When my leg gets better, I’ll go earn money and take care of you all.”
