书中自有颜如玉,... 2,710,000 hits; 2,310,000 百度

From my BJ textbook:

一年之后,你可以把过去他们四年校园兼职挣的钱挣出来几倍。这就是隐忍不发,一鸣惊人......谁说书里没有黄金屋?!

Explanation in the textbook: 古人说:“书中自有颜如玉,书中自有黄金屋。” 意思是只要好好读书,就可以得到荣华富贵。

In MoE's definition of 书中自有颜如玉, they mention marrying a beautiful young lady, but can that be implied by "glory" in my definition? Or should we squeeze in this thing about marrying a fine lady? :)
