The Sweet Life of Superstar and His Goddess Wife-Chapter 555: Doing charity starts with me

After returning, Zhan Zhengtong underwent significant changes. She no longer inquired about Jiang Nuo’s matters and earnestly dedicated herself to public welfare endeavors. If someone interviewed her because she was Jiang Nuo’s mother, she would say, "Doing more public welfare and accumulating virtue is what my son taught me."

[Supporting mom, indeed she is worthy of being our @Jiang Nuo’s mother, that’s the way it should be, do more public good and accumulate virtue.]

[I feel like the whole @Jiang Nuo family is doing good deeds, what a kind-hearted family.]

[Hahaha... all this credit goes to our @Qiuniang goddess; at the beginning, it was always our @Qiuniang goddess who was doing charity work. However, back then, she did it secretly, and no one knew.]

[@Qiuniang goddess is amazing!]

[Love @Qiuniang the most, love @Jiang Nuo the most!]

...

Maybe due to Jiang Nuo’s family, recently there’s been a global wave of "start public welfare with myself," many people unconsciously started engaging in charity work and posted it on Weibo.

Even if it wasn’t something they did themselves, or if it was something others did, upon seeing it, they would take a picture and post it on Weibo.

Every day, Jiang Nuo would pick and promote 2-3 people who had done charity work, @ them and repost. This made these people so happy, motivating them even more in their charity work.

Occasionally, Jiang Nuo would pick some, privately message them for their contact details, and send them a "hand-made gift" crafted by Mu Qiuniang personally.

Every time they received a gift, these people would happily show it off: [Initially, I just wanted to do charity, to get closer to @Jiang Nuo and @Qiuniang; unexpectedly, I received a surprise gift. This is a handkerchief embroidered by my beloved @Qiuniang herself, so wonderful!]

[Wow! I received one too, it’s handwriting from @Qiuniang. I love it so much, I must hang it on the wall. I surely will do more charity and accumulate virtue in the future.]

[Hahaha... what I received is a signed photo from @Jiang Nuo and @Qiuniang. Look at my idol’s smug expression, as if wanting the whole world to know how much in love they are. I want to say, @Jiang Nuo, no need to flaunt, we all know globally.]

[They just want to do charity, yet inadvertently show their love; nothing can be done. I absolutely won’t admit it, but I did it on purpose... This is @Jiang Nuo’s inner thought process at our house.]

[Hahaha—original poster, you seem right, hahahaha...] 𝒇𝒓𝙚𝒆𝔀𝓮𝓫𝒏𝓸𝙫𝓮𝓵.𝓬𝙤𝙢

...

Although many media reports praised this matter, saying Jiang Nuo actively guides the whole nation in "starting public welfare with myself," there were still skeptics: "Jiang Nuo, don’t you think your rice flour charity campaign is only motivated by the recognition you give them or the gifts they receive? Don’t you think such activities are too driven by interests?"

Jiang Nuo raised an eyebrow: "What’s wrong with interest-driven? As long as you can do charity for a lifetime, I admire that. Charity is inherently interest-driven, I do charity for fame, you do it for mental comfort, what’s the difference, aren’t we both seeking something? In this world, everyone has different original intentions, but as long as the result is the same, that’s what matters. Of course, these are my personal opinions, I still hope everyone does charity not just out of self-interest, but remember—I’m a Huaxia person, this is what I should do! Alright, next one."

In essence, Jiang Nuo made his stance clear—regardless of your motivation for doing charity, as long as you do it, and can sustain it for a lifetime, that’s what counts.

Jiang Nuo Weibo: [Charity, I only admire those who can persevere for a lifetime, regardless of your original intention.]

[@Jiang Nuo, you’re awesome, I’ve decided I’ll do charity for a lifetime so that my idol will admire me.]

[Even though I’m not certain whether I can do charity for a lifetime, I will start with small things around me and pay homage to @Jiang Nuo.]

[No matter why you’re doing it, as long as you do charity for a lifetime, I admire you.]

[As a rice flour fan, the greatest happiness is—my idol @Jiang Nuo has always been the best. Charity, I only admire those who can persevere for a lifetime, regardless of the original intention.]

[Charity, I only admire those who can persevere for a lifetime, regardless of the original intention.]

[Charity, I only admire those who can persevere for a lifetime, regardless of the original intention.]

[Charity, I only admire those who can persevere for a lifetime, regardless of the original intention.]

...

This statement by Jiang Nuo was reposted by many rice flour fans, instantly becoming a buzzword online.

People no longer focused on your reasons for doing charity, but rather on how long you’d continue doing charity. Because everyone believes, time can prove everything.

Some even began to ponder, is it really bad to engage in charity for benefits?

If someone did charity for a lifetime for this, and someone from a sincere heart only did it once, who is more deserving of admiration?

Regardless of the original intention or process, the outcome is clear; the one who does charity for a lifetime deserves more admiration.

Someone even wrote an article specifically to discuss this topic. Why do people do charity?

Is it really purely from the heart, without any expectations?

Isn’t psychological comfort a form of expectation?

Does charity motivated by interests really have no merits?

Nobody knows.

Jiang Nuo also talked humorously about it on a program, he indeed had expectations when doing charity. He hoped to accumulate blessings and virtue for future generations, which is also an expectation.

His expectations, however, differ slightly from most people’s.

"Personally, I think it doesn’t matter much, after all, different grains raise a hundred different people, you can’t expect everyone’s thoughts to be the same, so you can only lead everyone to the same outcome through certain methods."

"If everyone worldwide engages in charity, and most can sustain it for a lifetime, no matter why they’re doing it, I believe the world will become very beautiful."

"I’m a very selfish person, I don’t like saying too much, that’s meaningless. Whatever I do, there’s always a purpose, like now inspiring more people to do charity, my purpose is simple, using my influence, if more people engage in charity, maybe heaven will look upon me favorably and won’t take back the happiness I currently have."

"Yes, that’s right, I’m afraid heaven will take back my happiness. Previously, with changes in my family background, as you all know, it was quite unexpected to me, I always thought I was an orphan without parents, then suddenly this happened, I was particularly scared at that time, it was beyond my control, I feared my current happiness would be shattered."

"Perhaps because my wife did so much good before, it really worked, heaven stood on our side, the appearance of my parents didn’t disrupt my happiness, they didn’t interfere with my life, this gives me a good feeling."

"Oh, about my father’s imprisonment, I can only say, the innocent will remain clear, the murky will remain murky, heaven truly has a pair of bright eyes, what you will have in the future depends on what you do now."
