Getting Rich at Year-End, Returning to My Village for the New Year, and Seeing the Coldness of Human Nature

After six months of unemployment and endless mistreatment at work, just as I was on the verge of a breakdown, I was suddenly told that the lottery ticket I'd bought had won. Overjoyed, I collected my winnings and prepared to go home, planning to keep the news from my family and surprise them. But after I returned to the village, all I got were cutting remarks, gossip, people kicking me while I was down, and public humiliation. This time, if someone came at me, I'd come right back at them. They mocked me? Hmph. I'd face-slap them in front of everyone. As for anyone who bullied my family, sorry, I wouldn't allow it.
