Chapter 25 It was her.
”What's there to explain?” Ji Feng snorted, ”If it wasn't for Tong Lei leaking information, I wouldn't even know that you're her brother. You b.a.s.t.a.r.d, you are simply too despicable!”
Zhang Lei said with a wry smile, ”I'm hiding my ident.i.ty, so there's nothing I can do about it.” Lunatic, you don't know anything about our family. ”My family's old man is living up to the words of [the rich and poor girl] and wants me to hide my name.”
”What?” ”So that's how it is, then you are really unlucky!” Ji Feng laughed heartily. He also knew about [The Poor Rich Girl].
Among the commoners in Mang s.h.i.+ County, there was a saying, ”The poor are rich”. The meaning of 'poor son' was that in order to raise a son, one had to be strict in their requirements. Before the son had grown up into an adult, they couldn't let him live a life of luxury or else they would spoil him.
Furthermore, the flowers that grew up in the greenhouse would not be able to survive the storm outside. If they became independent in the future, they would be unable to support the sky, so their pampered son would not have much future ahead of him.
As for the word 'rich', it meant that if one wanted to raise a daughter, one had to provide her with very good conditions. And the meaning of 'rich daughter' was, if one wanted to raise a daughter, then one had to provide her with very good conditions, not to let her lack food and drinks, and to let her grow up in a warm and rich environment.
There were too many girls who, because their families were not well off and wanted to enjoy themselves, ended up going down the wrong path, or were dishonest women. Although on the surface, they pretended to be n.o.ble, arrogant, and had a famous brand name, in reality, they might just be entering or leaving a romantic place, or they might be the mistresses of high-ranking officials, or they might have walked the path of a criminal!
This was the saying of ”the rich and poor girl”. It was pa.s.sed down from the old ancestor and had been popular in Mang s.h.i.+ County for who knows how many years.
However, although those words were very popular, there were not many people who raised their children according to those words.
Especially towards his son, there were very few people who were able to make it to the point of being poor. Most families were pampered by their sons, and held them in their hands to avoid freezing, then holding them in their mouths to avoid melting.
This is why there are so many second generation ancestors or rich second generation in society. It's because their parents didn't really achieve 'poor children'!
As for the rich girls, they were very popular. As long as the family wasn't too poor, parents wouldn't let their children suffer!
However, even though Zhang Lei's father was the head of Mang s.h.i.+ County and could be considered a marquis, he still strictly demanded of his son, even not allowing Zhang Lei to reveal his ident.i.ty. To be able to do this, as long as Zhang Lei wasn't too impure, he would definitely have a bright future!
As the secretary of the county council, Tong Kaide, was immediately filled with reverence. As the secretary of the county council, no matter how well he did as an official, at least in the field of educating children, he was a qualified father and an outstanding father!
”Good job, your old man!” Ji Feng raised his thumb and praised.
Zhang Lei said with a wry smile, ”Scram!” To be honest, my life is just too horrible. My family's old man treated my sister very well, he had nothing to say. But to me, the old man has never had a good expression. He's always so long-faced, and I don't even dare to breathe in front of him! In order to prevent others from figuring out my ident.i.ty, I was forced to have the same surname as Mother! ”
