Chapter 13: The Butterfly Effect* Changes in the Trajectory (Favorites and Recommendations)
"Brother Luo, are you in such a good mood today, what's the happy thing?" asked the proprietress Widow Feng, who was 32 years old this year, her husband died in an accident, leaving her with a little daughter who was only eight years old.
Widow Feng had no job, so she could only set up a food stall near her home to sell rice and stir-fry vegetables.
"What happy event can Luo Yaozu have? His prodigal son just sold his house today. A neighbor who was eating at a stall said.
"The house has been sold, so where will you live in the future, Brother Luo?" Widow Feng asked worriedly, Luo Yaozu was a good person, and occasionally helped him drive away the in-laws who came to fight the autumn breeze.
"What do you think of me staying in your house, do I want you to marry me?" Luo Yaozu asked very nervously.
"Yes...... But I'm a widow?" said Widow Feng confusedly, in the nineties, there were very few divorcers, and not many widows remarried.
"I don't care about that, I'm in my forties and I don't want anything else, just want someone to cook me a hot meal when I get home later. The food you cook is delicious, and the people are very good!" Luo Yaozu said.
"That'...... Then can you let me think about it?" said Widow Feng, she had a good impression of Luo Yaozu.
"If you marry me, I'll open you a big hotel! So you don't have to set up a roadside stall every day, and I have money selling houses." Luo Yaozu patted his chest and said.
"If you have money, why don't you go find a yellow flower girl?" asked Widow Feng.
"The little girl just wants my money to be unreliable, what if they run away with my money? I've known you for so many years and think you're a good person. Luo Yaozu said.
"I still have to think about it, after all, my mother-in-law's family may not want me to remarry, and I also have to consider the mood of my daughter Xiaohua. Widow Feng said.
"Xiaohua is about to have a birthday, right? I brought her a birthday present! A guzheng from the Qing Dynasty, this is an antique! My mother left it to me. Luo Yaozu patted the guzheng that he had specially carried and said.
"Thank you, Uncle Rob!" Zhang Xiaohua ran over and said, she was very curious to lift the piano cover to see what the guzheng looked like.
"Brother Luo, this is too valuable, we can't accept it!" said Widow Feng.
"Take it, if you promise to marry me, you will be a family, it's not a big deal. Luo Yaozu said.
"Mom, I want this guzheng, and I also want Uncle Rob to be my father!" Zhang Xiaohua raised her head and said, Widow Feng looked at her daughter's longing and her heart moved.
"As long as you can promise to be good to Xiaohua in the future, I will agree to marry you!" Widow Feng said, and Luo Yaozu immediately agreed with great joy.
In his previous life, Luo Yaozu liked Widow Feng very much, but he never had a job or any money, and he could only live by selling his property every day, so how could he be embarrassed to propose marriage like Widow Feng!
Widow Feng was also unlucky, she was hit and killed by a car that rushed off the road in 92. The driver who caused the accident only paid 50,000 yuan, and Luo Yaozu was very sad for a while.
Luo Yaozu has no worries since then, in addition to gambling every day, he drinks and lives a drunken dream, and in less than two years, he lost all the antiques in his family, and then sold the courtyard and continued to gamble, until one day he died in the casino because of stomach bleeding.
In this life, because Jia Lei bought the Luo family's courtyard house and antiques four years in advance, Luo Yaozu became a millionaire and immediately had the confidence to go to Widow Feng to ask for marriage.
After the two got married, Widow Feng watched, Luo Yaozu naturally couldn't go to a place like a casino, and he could only play mahjong and poker with the neighbors' uncles and uncles, which really answered the phrase "small gambling pleasure"!
After Widow Feng got married, Luo Yaozu paid 2 million to build a big hotel for her that year, and Widow Feng jumped from the proprietress of a food stall to the proprietress of a big hotel!
Twenty years later
"Handsome guy, my family has a house shop in the capital, do you want to?" Zhang Xiaohua took a fancy to a handsome guy in the bar and ran over and said.
"I'm sorry, I'm waiting for someone!MM, we don't make an appointment!" Jia Lei said with a smile and rejected Zhang Xiaohua.
"Is the handsome guy really not dating? I still have an antique store at home? I can raise you!" Zhang Xiaohua said with a twitch of her head, wearing an emerald ring from the Qing Dynasty on her hand, shining in the light.
"I'm sorry I don't make an appointment! I really don't make an appointment!" Jia Lei refused with an embarrassed smile, is he the kind of little white face who needs to be raised?
"Cut! old-fashioned!" Zhang Xiaohua shook her head and left, thinking that she Zhang Xiaohua was a well-known Bai Fumei in the school back then!

"Xiaohua, you must take the archaeology major of the Department of History, otherwise Dad Luo will be pitted by Lao Liu of the Liuli Factory again, last time I kindly let them see Tang Bohu's paintings, they didn't say it was fake and wanted to buy it cheaply! I am certified by the state, how can it be fake, they think I am uneducated and want to lie to me! You must give Dad Luo me a fight. Before Zhang Xiaohua's college entrance examination, Luo Yaozu ran over to talk to her every other day to complain, Zhang Xiaohua had no choice but to give up, and her mother kept asking her to take the financial management department and secretly applied for the history department of Beijing University.
Luo Yaozu and Widow Feng inadvertently flapped their wings because of Jia Lei's butterfly, and their lives changed from capital BE to HE!
Jia Lei's merits are immeasurable!

Jia Lei just spent more than half of the cash in his hand when he went out this time, and the rest was less than 300,000, and he was finally able to take it himself. Jia Lei breathed a sigh of relief!
Uncle Wang Xinglang was really worried about this day, it was the first time he had gotten so much money with his own hands! It was also the first time that he had spent so much money in one day!
"Jia Lei, this kid is really a loser, 5 million! He spent 5 million a day! He really spent a lot of money...... Even if it's five million pieces of waste paper, it will take several days to burn it. Only...... It's just gone!" Wang Xinglang complained to his wife at night, and his aunt was very distressed when he heard him talk about buying a house.
"5 million!?Where did Jia Lei get so much money?Did he spend it like this?" The aunt asked.
"It's hard to guess, he's trading stocks! That's what he said. I'll just say, why did he go to the bank for a loan of 3 million yuan for no reason, and open a stall selling tea and eggs at the train station, how could he use so much money!" Wang Xinglang said, thinking that they hadn't noticed it when Jia Lei first said it.
"Why doesn't the capital carry out the joint-stock reform like Mingzhu City and Pengcheng? Otherwise, we can make a fortune!" said the eldest aunt enviously.
"Look at Jia Lei, he has earned twice as much in less than half a year, and how can he calculate that he has to repay bank interest on five million cash, at least twice as much!" said the eldest aunt with a small calculation in her heart.
"Pretty much the stock market in Pearl City has quadrupled or fivefold now! Many newspapers are talking about it. Wang Xinglang said indifferently.
"Jia Lei has spent so much money, doesn't his father-in-law care? The child doesn't have much money, so it's better to let his father-in-law and Wei Hong ask for the money to help him save it!"
"Let me tell you, don't mess with your ideas! Jia Lei and we are not close! We haven't raised him for a day in the past ten years, do you think he will give us the money? Besides, don't forget Jia Lei's surname Jia is not surnamed Wang, don't pay attention to his money! Otherwise, Dad won't be able to spare you!" Wang Xinglang warned her, and that's what Professor Wang told him.
"I didn't pay attention to this money, I just felt a little distressed! What are you buying an antique that you can't eat or drink?" said the eldest aunt distressedly.
"What are you distressed about, and it's not your money! We can't spend a cent. Wang Xinglang said, and the eldest aunt suddenly laughed.
"What are you laughing at?" asked the uncle.
"Of course Jia Lei should laugh if he has money, but he has bought a house for your sister! My sister-in-law will not move back to her mother's house to live in the study if she has a place to live, you must know that it is easy to live in and difficult to go out! My sister-in-law has three children, and the Zhou family's house does not have the share of the three of their mothers at all, do you say that my sister-in-law will not fight the idea of the study in the future? This time, my sister-in-law has a house, and the study will be saved, and our Wang Chaohui will be sixteen soon, and I have long been ready to keep the study for him as a new house. The eldest aunt said with a smile.
"You're right, Chaohui is not small! It's time to prepare. Wei Hong will be discharged from the hospital tomorrow, so you might as well ask for leave to help her move things! As brothers and sisters-in-law, we can't do anything without helping, and it's not like that if we have a nephew and a child to do everything! My third brother and I will take Jia Lei to help Wei Hong move tomorrow, and you will go to the hospital to pick up Wei Hong and discharge her. Uncle said.
"I don't need you to say that I have already asked for leave, and my housewarming gift for my sister is ready. Two washbasins, two hot water bottles, and brand new pillow sheets are all things that can be used immediately, and Wei Hong can't even have hot water when she is still in confinement. I'll give Wei another 100 yuan for the red envelope, isn't that thick enough?" said the eldest aunt.
"It's still my wife who is sensible, much better than the second family!" Wang Xinglang praised his wife.
"Don't compare me with her, it's too low! By the way, when you move tomorrow, let the third brother drive the car that buys vegetables from the canteen, and you can't just rely on your two legs to move! When my sister-in-law got married, she brought a lot of dowry. The eldest aunt said.

"If we take this money, you just wait for Jia Lei to cut off relations with us! If you really want to take care of everything when you are your own mother? Your own mother has raised him for a few days? How will you use this money when you get it back? Aren't Zhou Xing and Xiaoyue your children? What should you do when the Zhou family asks you to give them a share?" Professor Wang warned his daughter on the phone.
"I ...... Aren't I afraid that Jia Lei will spend money indiscriminately?" Wang Weihong said.
"The flowers are spent, and the money is earned by himself anyway! Let me tell you, you can't control this son! Don't care about it in the future! Let him do whatever he wants, don't forget that he had nothing to do with us a few months ago! He has lived without a mother and grandfather for more than ten years, and he won't mind cutting off relations with us now! That's why I don't dare to stop him......" Professor Wang said tiredly, children are debts!
Jia Lei is even more in debt!
