Back to the 60s: The Struggle Career of a Charmed Wife

Lu Jiang sat beside her, listening intently, and felt very proud, "A month ago, when I heard Anbang talk about this, I thought it wouldn't sell, and I was afraid you'd worry about it, so I didn't tell you. I didn't expect it to sell so well and help so many people. With a son growing up, it adds so much glory and color to us as parents."

Feng Qingxue held the phone in one hand and patted Lu Jiang's arm with the other, saying displeasedly, "Why didn't you tell me? Even if not a single copy was sold, it's still my son's work, and I'd buy it to keep!"

Before Lu Jiang could answer, Xibao heard it through the phone and worried his parents might argue. He quickly said, "Mom, I only knew my compiled material was published when I received the royalties. Don't be mad at Dad, or I'll be mad at Godfather too; he didn't tell me a word!"

Zhao Anbang burst into laughter, patting the table with his single arm.

"Good son, I wanted to give you a surprise. Tell me, was it a surprise?"

"It's a surprise, but it was also quite a shock, okay?" Xibao said helplessly, thinking of the material he compiled, he quickly said to the other side of the phone, "Mom, there's something I need to ask you."

Feng Qingxue hurriedly asked what it was, and Xibao earnestly said, "That set of materials actually has many types of questions I borrowed from some review materials I've seen, so the main credit should go to them. I want to trouble Mom and Dad to help me find the teachers who compiled the original materials and split two-thirds of the royalties with them."

Feng Qingxue was momentarily stunned, then praised her son non-stop, "No wonder your dad feels proud of you. Son, Mom is very happy. My son did the right thing. We can't erase the intellectual property of others. You tell your godfather that in the next publication, note which reference materials you borrowed from and who the authors are in the published material."

Xibao's eyes lit up, "Got it, Mom, that's a great idea. I'll ask Godfather to do that later."

"Okay, Mom and Dad are waiting for the new publication, increasing your sales. Two-thirds of the royalties go to them, and the remaining one-third?"

Hearing his mother's question, Xibao replied without hesitation, "I want to use the remaining portion to help children who can't afford to go to school, especially little girls in mountain villages. Grandpa and I have visited many places in Huaibei City. Boys not attending school mostly due to poverty, while many girls, though capable and bright, have to drop out because they are from a family that prefers boys over girls or because of poverty, even if the family can afford to support them."

Xibao paused for a moment, then softly said, "I find it very regrettable. Mom, you said that education can change destiny, but they don't even have the opportunity to learn. Grandpa said, 'If one is poor, they cultivate themselves; if prosperous, they help the world,' which is the highest state of being human. Although I'm not prosperous yet, I believe I can start small."

Feng Qingxue was too overwhelmed to say anything.

She led by example, teaching her children kindness, thinking it would take a long time to see her children's deeds, not expecting her son to understand the principle of 'If one is poor, they cultivate themselves; if prosperous, they help the world' at such a young age.

As parents, what reason is there to oppose their child's good deeds?

"Alright, Mom will follow your lead. I'll have your dad and your godfather discuss the details, starting with us as parents. Your aunt sent me fifty thousand Hong Kong Dollars from Hong Kong. I'll convert it to RMB, keep a few thousand for the household, then contribute the fifty thousand with your royalties to start a scholarship program."
