“Darling, what should we do about this?” Yuan Zhao Di panicked a little when he saw all those gifts.

His wife was even worse off than him. Yuan Zhao Di asking his wife for advice was equivalent to asking air.

After a long while, Madame Li carefully said, “Why don’t you send them to mother and let her help keep them?”

Yuan Zhao Di thought for a moment and said, “I think it’ll work!”

Even Yuan Zhao Di, who was in charge of the dock, could not handle so many things.

However, when Yuan Zhao Di picked up the box of jewelry, he stopped and whispered, “Darling, if we give this to mother for safekeeping, I’m afraid we won’t have enough money when we return gifts!”

Because they had not separated from the Yuan family, the young couple had no money of their own. Although Old Yuan and Madame Zeng’s family would give them pocket money every year, they didn’t save much. Occasionally they would use their savings or Madame Li’s dowry if they had some favors to return.

Yuan Zhao Di’s brothers and sisters-in-law must have used their dowry money to purchase the gifts that Yuan Bao received. All of this would have to be returned with gifts later.

“We’ll talk about it when the time comes!”

Madame Li also did not know how to deal with this matter. She said she would give it to her mother-in-law for safekeeping, but in reality, she also wanted to use this opportunity with her mother-in-law to ask for a solution.

Yuan Zhao Di thought for a while, then went to the main room with the box.

When Madame Zeng heard her son’s intention, she waved her hand and said, “It won’t work! This is for Jiao Jiao. You can manage it yourself!”

“Mother, there are so many things. If we exchange them for silver, I’m afraid there would be dozens of taels. How can we manage?”

A few dozen taels of silver was an amount that Yuan Zhao Di did not even dare to think about.

He was a manager at the dock, but his monthly salary was only two taels of silver. He had to maintain his relationship with people and occasionally treat them to meals and drinks. After a month, he did not even have half a tael of silver left.

But even so, his job was envied by countless people. Yuan Zhao Di was considered a very promising child in Lin He village.

It was not easy to make money.

“Why can’t you guys manage it?” Old Yuan said.

When Old Yuan heard his son’s words, he glared at him, “What? Do you expect us to be your servants for the rest of our lives?”

“Father, I didn’t mean that!”

Yuan Zhao Fi felt wronged. That was not what he had meant!

Old Yuan didn’t care. He snorted and said, “I know what your problem is. You’ve never seen the world. This is nothing compared to the real problems out there! You must broaden your horizons, see far, and be bold to do great things!”

“You’ve worked at the dock for two years but haven’t made much progress. To think that I was hoping that you could make further progress!” Old Yuan continued.

“Father, look at what you’re saying. How capable can I get?” Yuan Zhao Di did not dare to think too highly of himself. He had relied on a little bit of cleverness to get to the position of a manager. He had to spend more than half his monthly salary to get others to like him to keep this position.

As for progressing? With no one working under him, even if he were to get a better position, he might lose it at any time.

The current situation was already pretty good for Yuan Zhao Di. Although he didn’t get much money, his life was still not bad.

Humans need to know when to be content!

“Look at your useless face. Get lost, get lost, get lost. I’m annoyed just by looking at you!” Old Yuan said as he waved his hand disdainfully to drive him away. He won’t be so annoyed as long as he is out of sight.
