After the meal, Ding Mo took out the souvenirs she brought from City B and distributed them to everyone. She also gave Li Yunlong and Zhou Qi each a lucky money.

Actually, the package didn’t cost much, just two hundred yuan per person, just for fun.

However, her act of giving out red envelopes made Ding Zhiping frown slightly. After the meal, when no one was paying attention, he called Ding Mo out alone.

Ding Zhiping asked, "The 300 million yuan you deposited in the bank should have matured, right?"

Ding Mo originally wanted to inform him about the subsequent disposal of the money, but he was afraid that his eldest uncle and second uncle's families would cause trouble again, so he kept it to himself.

I didn't expect him to ask me this question, so I answered without hesitation: "I basically invested all my money in the stock market and picked out a few stocks that have great potential."

Upon hearing this, Ding Zhiping frowned even deeper: "You are still a child, why are you speculating in stocks? Shouldn't you focus on your studies? Besides, there are so many risks in the stock market, aren't you afraid of losing everything?" His tone even carried a hint of blame.

Ding Mo felt something was wrong when he heard his tone. Ding Zhiping had promised that he would not touch the money and would let Ding Mo spend it as he pleased. Now, he sounded a bit bossy by saying this.

But Ding Mo had to admit that what Ding Zhiping said made sense, but she couldn't tell Ding Zhiping that she was reborn, and she knew that Moutai would definitely skyrocket in the future and even increase tenfold, which was definitely a business that was sure to make money.

Forget it, just treat it as a parent’s concern and bear with it.

"I should have known that I shouldn't have let you be in charge of the money?" Ding Zhiping said shockingly.

Ding Mo's eyes widened.

The last minute she thought that this was out of his good intentions and concern as a father and decided to just endure it. The next second Ding Zhiping said this to her.

The father and daughter had not seen each other since she finished the college entrance examination, and the topic of their reunion after such a long separation was actually opened in this way.

"You agreed that I could use the money myself," Ding Mo said.

"My thought at the time was that if you had this money, maybe you could have a better life instead of gambling in the stock market. Instead of wasting it in the stock market, you might as well use it to buy a car and a house," said Ding Zhiping.

"Although stock trading has risks, it is definitely not a waste, Dad. What you said is illogical. What if I made more money by stock trading? What will you say then?" Ding Mo asked.

Ding Zhiping has his own theory: "What if you don't make money? Why take the risk to do such a thing?"

Before Ding Mo could explain further, he continued, "Also, I want to ask you, did you go traveling before you came back? Why did you buy so many things? And you also gave red envelopes to the two children. Didn't we, as elders, give them New Year's money, and now it's your turn to be generous? You either used the money to speculate in stocks or squandered it. The decision to let you manage the money yourself was a mistake!"

So in his mind, I am a spendthrift and have no brains? And he mentioned again and again that he shouldn't have let her manage her own money. Did he regret it?

If you think about it in a darker way, maybe your eldest uncle or your second uncle said something to him again, and I hope no one is instigating him to take her money.

Stocks can be traded at any time, just like cash in a bank. If someone really tries to cheat her out of money this time, she won't have the bank to use as a shield.

"So, who suggested that you take the money?" Ding Mo asked.

Ding Zhiping: “There is no such person.”

However, someone reminded him that he would have to rely on his daughter for support in the future, and strictly speaking, he also had the right to control the money.

Ding Mo said, "That's good. You should respect your original decision. At least when it's in my hands, no one else can take a penny. If I had given you the money, I'm afraid that my uncle and my second uncle's families would have each bought a small western-style house."

After hearing what she said, Ding Zhiping realized that he was in the wrong on this issue and it was not good to get angry again, so he was the first to return to the dinner table.

Ding Mo returned to the dinner table and immediately blended in with everyone happily. However, even though she and Ding Zhiping were in the same room, she felt that there was a huge gap between them.

Even before his rebirth, Ding Zhiping was not very close to her, but at least he treated Ding Mo sincerely, otherwise he would not have unconditionally agreed to give the money to Ding Mo to use as she pleased after her rebirth.

However, his weak character has always been a shortcoming that he cannot change. Even after going through divorce, and experiencing the various acts of stealing from his eldest and second uncles, and even escaping to S City for a year, there has been no change.

Unexpectedly, a few months later, when the father and daughter met again, they felt so unfamiliar.

----------

Ding Mo brought her two children to set off fireworks in the staff quarters again. The two large boxes of fireworks she bought made the two little kids the envy of all the other children.

Zhou Jing and Ding Zhiqin were busy cleaning up the aftermath of dinner at home. Finally, their respective parents carried their children, who were too sleepy to open their eyes, back to their own homes.

Ding Mo breathed a sigh of relief. She could finally go back and take a closer look at Li Shan's business plan, but was stopped by Grandma Zhou.

"Did your dad say something unpleasant again? I noticed you two looked a little off after dinner."

To be honest, Grandma Zhou doesn't really want to meddle in other people's affairs, especially Ding Zhiping's affairs.

If Ding Mo hadn't lived in their house for almost three years, he wouldn't have invited Ding Zhiping to the New Year's Eve dinner.

Since Zhou Lang passed away, the old couple has regarded Ding Mo as their comfort. So now that Ding Mo is unhappy, she is not happy either.

Seeing Grandma Zhou asking, Ding Mo didn't want to hide it: "I just came to ask what happened to the lottery money. He and I used it to invest in stocks, but he didn't really support me investing in stocks."

Ding Mo had mentioned this to Grandma Zhou when she was chatting with her when she bought a house and stocks in City B. She also hoped that one day she could let Grandma Zhou and her family go to City B to stay for a while and have a place to live.

Although the two elders thought it was a bit unbelievable that a child would spend several million to speculate in stocks, they were more interested in asking Ding Mo whether she was optimistic about the stock and whether she was confident.

As for buying a house, she is even more supportive. After all, it would be Ding Mo's own home, and it would make her forget that she has such a group of confused family members in K City. Buying a house is also a good idea.

"You didn't tell him that you bought the house, right?" Grandma Zhou asked after she heard what she said.

"No, I wanted to say it, but then I gave up."

Grandma Zhou said, "It's good that he didn't say anything. Your father has such a troublesome family of relatives, so it's right to be on guard. But this person is so annoying. Does he have to say something unhappy during the New Year?"

But after all, Ding Zhiping is the child's biological father. Although he may have said some harsh words, it is still reasonable.

"No, you should talk to him about the stock you bought?" Grandma Zhou asked tentatively.

Ding Mo was helpless. She could never explain to Ding Zhiping that she was reborn? And she also knew that Moutai's stock would soar tenfold in the future? He was not as easy to fool as Grandpa Zhou and Grandma Zhou. So forget it.
