Chapter 840 The Entertainment Industry, The Original Female Lead Killed by the Transmigrator (6)

When the original owner signed the contract, Xiao's father went with her. Although he didn't understand it, he was afraid that his daughter would be deceived, so he took the contract and spent money to find a lawyer to ask if there were any problems before letting his daughter sign it. Therefore, he knew the contract term.

Xiao Yun definitely can't tell the truth, but she can still talk about some things that have been exposed online. She'll definitely bring these things up again when she becomes famous. Rather than letting them hear it from other people and get anxious, it's better to give them a heads-up first.

"Because the two dramas I filmed before were well received, I may have stolen their limelight or blocked their path. So they hired people to smear me online and even falsely accused me of drug possession. The company was afraid of getting into trouble, so they terminated my contract directly without even asking for a penalty."

"Poisoning! Who's so heartless? That's a crime punishable by jail time!" Mother Xiao exclaimed immediately upon hearing those words.

Mr. Xiao also looked at his daughter with a look of horror. They had been honest for most of their lives, and even if they were ignorant, they knew what not to touch.

Xiao Yun patted her parents' arms reassuringly, "Don't worry, the police have investigated and cleared my name. Otherwise, I wouldn't be able to come back. I can't be sure who it was, but it's probably one of my competitors. So I plan to stay quiet for a month or two, set up my own studio, and also find out who messed with me."

"What kind of studio are you setting up? It must cost a lot of money, right? Do you have enough money on hand? In a few days, after selling the grain and cotton, you'll have about 100,000 yuan. After leaving the money for next season's seeds, fertilizer, and pesticides, you should have about 70,000 to 80,000 yuan. You can use it for now..."

When Xiao's father heard that his daughter wanted to go it alone, his first thought was whether she had enough money. He calculated the money he was about to receive and then spoke up.

Xiao Yun felt a pang of tenderness in her heart; this was an emotion left over from the original owner of the body. She blinked, stood up, looked at the door, then closed it and sat back down beside her parents, whispering, "Dad, Mom, please prepare yourselves. What I'm about to say might be a bit intense, so please don't get too excited."

Mr. Xiao: "...How exciting? Did you rob a bank?"

Xiao's mother: "...You're not going to sell a kidney, are you?"

Xiao Yun: "No, I won the lottery."

Mr. Xiao took a deep breath: "You won the top prize? That's five million!"

Xiao's mother gasped, her voice trembling slightly, "You really won five million?"

Xiao Yun shook his head. The couple were somewhat disappointed but also relieved. They thought to themselves, "How could the grand prize be so easy to win? Otherwise, everyone would go crazy buying tickets and stop doing anything else but staring at it."

"No, it's from abroad, one hundred million US dollars."

"How many?!"

"How many!?"

Mr. and Mrs. Xiao shouted in unison, then simultaneously covered their mouths and ran to the door to check. After confirming that no neighbors were eavesdropping on either side of the wall, they floated back to the table, looking at their daughter as if in a dream.

Xiao Yun nodded affirmatively, then showed them the prize information she received on her phone. The couple couldn't understand foreign languages, but they could still count the zeros after the 1. There were eight zeros in total, which was indeed 100 million!

"Is this true? Xiaoyun, you're not just kidding me and your mom, are you?" Mr. Xiao was still a little incredulous.

Xiao Yun nodded seriously, then used her phone to transfer 50,000 yuan to each of them. The main reason was that she hadn't activated large-amount transfers yet, and the bonus money hadn't been transferred either, so she had to go to the bank to handle it.

"Take these and use them first. I'll transfer the money to you when I get back and activate a large transfer account. I'll pay back all the money I owe my second aunt, eldest uncle, and great-aunt. I'll give you a generous amount, including interest, since it's been several years."

Seeing the bank balance change information, the couple finally felt a sense of reality; their daughter really did have money!

Mr. Xiao suddenly stood up and said, "No! We have to celebrate! Pour me another glass, and a bigger one!"

If he drinks too much, he won't go in the afternoon. Anyway, they'll clean it up for him even if he doesn't watch over it. It's just that he's worried about wasting food, so he has to keep an eye on things.

Now his daughter is a billionaire! He's a billionaire's biological father, so who cares about those pittances!

Xiao's mother didn't stop her anymore. She stared longingly at the gourd-shaped wine bottle, wanting to have a little more.

Xiao Yun waved his hand heartily, "Drink! Let's get a big glass! Let's celebrate properly!"

Xiao Yun grabbed a glass for herself, and the three of them clinked glasses together, "Cheers!"

When they had almost finished eating, Xiao's father instructed, "Let's not tell anyone else about this. We can't be too careful. Just tell my older brother that it was Xiaoyun who earned it. They always say that being a celebrity makes money fast, so they shouldn't suspect anything."

Xiao's mother nodded. She also knew the principle of not flaunting wealth. The main problem was that the amount of money was too large, and revealing it would cause endless trouble. It was better to be cautious.

Xiao Yun had the housekeeping robot prepare six dishes. Although it looked like a lot, the portions were actually quite small, consisting of small plates. So the family of three finished the whole meal in no time.

The staple food was rice steamed in a rice cooker. There would normally be a little left over, but since there was only so little, Mr. Xiao simply cleaned it all up.

Although I said I wouldn't go to the fields, I was still worried. After taking a nap, I still wandered over to the fields around 3 p.m.

Xiao Yun didn't stop them, but told her parents that she was going to do a thorough cleaning at home that afternoon, since the blankets and curtains hadn't been washed yet.

If you lock the gate from the inside, no one in the village will come to visit unless the gate is open.

This is a customary practice in the village: when you don't want people to come, you lock the gate; opening the gate to welcome guests means closing the door to visitors.

Xiao Yun had the robot clean the two bedrooms in use and a storage room. The curtains and duvet covers were washed in the washing machine and hung out to dry in the yard; they would be dry by evening.

If it weren't so difficult to move, Xiao Yun would have liked to modify that dry toilet. There was no other way; that was all the kind of toilet available in the countryside.

If you want to install a flush toilet, you first need to build a septic tank. In rural areas, dry toilets are usually cleaned regularly by someone.

The toilet contained a large vat covered with two stone slabs. In the summer, it not only smelled terrible, but small animals would also crawl inside.

In the past, when we used to cook over a wood fire, the ashes from the fire would be scattered into the toilet every day, which at least reduced the smell.

Now everyone uses gas stoves and electricity, so there's no ash at all. In winter, coal is no longer allowed to be burned, so gas is used for heating, and there's no coal ash left.

This reminded Xiao Yun of a small world he had once visited. In that life, he transmigrated to a rural area in Northwest China, where the toilets were suspended in mid-air, with a sloping pit underneath that led outwards.

The winds in the Northwest are notoriously strong and harsh. Once, after wiping herself in the toilet, she threw down the toilet paper, only to have it blown back up. Luckily, she dodged quickly, or it would have smeared her face...

Compared to other things, this is actually tolerable. Just block out your sense of smell and don't look down. When no one is around, just go back to your own space to watch it.

She was thinking of making a name for herself as soon as possible, buying a house in Beijing, and then bringing her parents over. It didn't make sense for her daughter to be making a lot of money while her parents were still suffering in the countryside.
