Xu Mumu sat there for over an hour, waiting for a few kids to come out of the school.

Each of their faces was flushed with excitement, suggesting they had received quite a few awards today.

The kids were excitedly talking about the award ceremony they attended at school today and the things they received.

Besides money, they also received certificates, several notebooks, and a few pretty nice pens.

"Girl, are your younger siblings so accomplished?" The old lady selling ice powder looked at Xu Mumu with wide eyes. She noticed Xu Mumu’s good temperament and had clothes she had never seen before, indicating that a family like hers would certainly send their children to study.

So, part of the reason she chatted with Xu Mumu earlier was this, but it was mainly because of Doudou.

Hearing their conversation now, these kids were the girl’s younger siblings and were the students whose names were displayed on the school banner, with one even being the top scorer. This was truly impressive.

"Yes, they all work very hard," Xu Mumu said with a proud smile.

"It’s my sister who taught us," Xu Minglei said, proudly puffing out his chest. He believed his sister was the most competent, "My sister used to be the top science scorer."

Xu Mumu helplessly pinched her brother’s face. The kids had been diligently preparing for the college entrance exam and had lost a lot of weight.

The old lady was even more surprised, thinking this family must have received a blessing from their ancestors; how could they all be so outstanding?

After bidding farewell to the old lady, on the way back, the kids excitedly calculated what to do with the prize money they received this time, while Tiedan had already planned it out.

"Sis, what should I do with my money? It seems I don’t have anything I want to do. I plan to help grandma during the holidays," Xu Minglei said, feeling a bit at a loss with so much money all of a sudden.

"Then save it. Once your savings are enough, buy a house. When you get married, you won’t have to share a place with your brothers," Xu Mumu said with a smile. Her brother had saved quite a bit of money over the years.

"Then I want to buy a house in the Imperial City," the little guy said grandly. He thought the houses where his sister and the others lived in the Imperial City looked nice, plus it’s the Imperial City. His sister had mentioned how the houses there appreciate in value just sitting around.

His sister now receives a significant monthly income from the rental of her house, which isn’t a small amount.

"Big Sis, I also want to save up money to buy a house in the Imperial City," Xu Jiaojiao’s eyes lit up. She really liked her brother-in-law’s Prince Mansion in the Imperial City and wondered if there were any more in the Imperial City. She wanted to work hard to make money.

"Yes, yes, I also want to buy a house in the Imperial City. Later, I’ll bring our parents and brother to the Imperial City," Xu Tao immediately said.

"Then you all need to work even harder. Houses in the Imperial City are very expensive; buying one there could buy several in this provincial capital," Xu Mumu said with a smile. The kids had rather grand ambitions—buying a house in the Imperial City—which could hardly go wrong.

"Sis, tell me how to make money quickly?" Xu Minglei couldn’t wait any longer. Although marriage was still far away, he knew he couldn’t rely on his elder brother forever. Eventually, they would split up, just like his father and his brothers.

With Xu Minglei’s question, the other kids immediately looked over eagerly, wanting to know as well.

"I see you all are good at English, French, and German. I’ll have your brother-in-law check if there’s any translation work needed, and then we’ll get you some jobs," Xu Mumu said while touching her chin.

"Really? Can we really do it?" Xu Jiaojiao’s eyes sparkled.

"Of course you can, but it might involve a lot of specialized terms. I’ll have someone bring you some professional dictionaries." Xu Mumu was well aware of the kids’ level; she taught them, and they had learned her teachings well. 𝙛𝓻𝒆𝒆𝒘𝙚𝓫𝙣𝙤𝒗𝙚𝓵.𝙘𝙤𝙢

Following Xu Mumu to the company, it was the first visit for the kids. The building was tall, though not as tall as skyscrapers in later years. The people coming and going all belonged to Xu Mumu, filling the kids with curiosity.

"Is this brother-in-law’s company? It’s huge," Xu Jiaojiao marveled.

"And this is just the headquarters. There are other branch offices and many industries. When you graduate, you can also engage in business if you want," Xu Mumu said with a smile.

The kids had graduated from high school and now held diplomas. In Xu Mumu’s eyes, their minds were gradually maturing, and there were certain things they still needed to learn.

After learning of Xu Mumu’s arrival, Yin Yang finished his work and summoned all of them over.

Upon seeing his father, little Doudou stretched out his arms to be held by him, still remembering that his mom didn’t let him have ice powder.

Xu Mumu let the little boy get close to his dad, as she sat and discussed the kids’ work prospects with Yin Yang.

"You all want to do translation? That’s fine. I have work here. I’ll hire you," Yin Yang said with a smile.

He then explained the rates for translating documents. Yin Yang wanted to help the kids, not just because they were Xu Mumu’s siblings but also because they had excellent grades and likely bright futures, making it beneficial to have a good relationship with them.

"Brother-in-law, do these translation jobs really pay this much? Are you giving us a higher rate on purpose?" Xu Minglei asked, puzzled.

"What are you thinking? Truly skilled translators are hard to find. The ones I’ve got need more polish, so having you help is wonderful. I’m actually paying you less than the company employees because you’re temps," Yin Yang said, with a serious tone.

In fact, Yin Yang was offering a bit more than what he paid the company staff, just not wanting to put pressure on the kids.

He was also curious about the kids’ skill levels, using this as a chance to test them.

Xu Mumu quietly listened from the side, watching the kids discuss with Yin Yang, feeling moved at how they had grown.

As they left the company, Yin Yang carried Doudou, with Xu Mumu at his side. The kids carried a stack of documents and a professional dictionary each.

The kids were excited. It was their first job, and they couldn’t wait to start; soon, they would be able to earn their own money.

Seeing their excitement, Xu Mumu didn’t want to dampen their enthusiasm. Translation work might be tedious and boring, prone to mistakes, so she hoped the kids would persevere.
