Chapter 719: Chapter 719: Just for the Thrill of Being Outrageously Awesome
When Song Ci came through, she was already fifty-seven, now itās been almost two years, fifty-nine?
Nanny glanced at her and said, "You were born in April, counting in traditional years, youāre already sixty-one."
Ancient people always counted higher, even if itās just for traditional years, they would add two more.
But Song Ci wasnāt willing to acknowledge her age, she huffed and said, "Clearly, Iām fifty-nine, letās only count real age."
Nanny didnāt even lift an eyelid, smiling, "As long as youāre happy, Madam and the others are thinking of throwing you a grand birthday celebration next year."
"That means Iām going to receive a lot of lavish gifts again," Song Ciās eyes were shining.
Familiar look, familiar tone, familiar love for money.
Nanny chuckled, "Yes."
"It must be held, a full sixty years after all, considered long-lived, it must be celebrated." Song Ci smiled cheerfully, already fantasizing in her heart about what lavish gifts she would receive next year.
Nanny handed over a cup of tea, thought for a moment, and asked, "Madam, do you really love money so much?"
This lady, she likes to visit her private storehouse. When sheās bored, she also likes to take out her property booklet and look at it over and over again, the joy in her eyes is real.
But to say she loves money, the gifts she gives to the younger generation are given without hesitation, the degree of generosity is as if they werenāt even hers.
"Love it? Why wouldnāt I love it?" Song Ci looked at her and said, "Have you forgotten my background? I was once terribly poor, naturally, I love money, because having money represents confidence, it means you can do many things, like charity, isnāt it because you have money that you can be so benevolent?"
If you have no money, you can only dream.
"I feel itās not just for that reason, right?"
Song Ci chuckled sheepishly, "Youāve seen through me. Haha, your Madam here is simply fond of being rich, very rich, the kind of rich where I donāt have to do anything, commonly known as lifeās ultimate goal. Donāt you think thatās enjoyable?"
Although itās a bit shameless, things like these where good fortune falls from the sky, she indeed finds it enjoyable, just seeing her personal storehouseās treasures rising brings her a unique joy.
Becoming a fabulously wealthy woman was originally her daydream, now it may not be perfect, but at least itās a dream come true, and thereās the opportunity to āamass wealth,ā naturally, she canāt perfectly miss it.
"But having that much money is pointless; one person canāt use it all." Nanny discussed her view on money with her for the first time.
Even someone like her, a servant, at this age, has enough assets to enjoy her old age comfortably, canāt even use it all; let alone Song Ci, with her status, thereās no worry over food and drink, so whatās the use of having so much money?
So she really couldnāt understand what the significance of Song Ciās love for money was?
"Nanny, everyone has a kind of euphoria in their heart to pursue, some want power that rules the world, some want to have admiration on all sides, some want immense wealth, achieving it is their euphoric feeling. For me, itās about that super-rich thrill, whether I can spend it all or not, the thrill is there, thatās how I please myself, nothing particularly meaningful, just because I like it, I like seeing myself rich with money to spare."
She just likes that unapologetically wealthy feeling, so what?
Nanny was a bit speechless, alright, she admitted she couldnāt grasp that point.
"Letās not talk about this. Nanny, some of the young girls are about to get married, do you have any young girls you fancy?"
Nanny was taken aback.
