Farming in the Mountains: Max Level Jiaojiao Is Three Years Old - Chapter 1759

Chapter 1759: Chapter 1759: I’ve Hid It All!

“If you don’t give it,” Wu Changcai continued, “he will definitely steal it. He’s done things like stealing chickens and dogs before, so you really need to secure your money!”

Seeing that Wu Changcai didn’t covet her money at all, Wu Lingxi was naturally pleased.

And hearing Wu Changcai remind her to secure her money and talk about her brother, Wu Lingxi was even more delighted. Her brother was always hanging around the town’s gambling house nowadays, sometimes not even returning home. Living in that house, she was naturally aware. But no one else had warned her about this—only he did—and she felt that he truly had her best interests at heart.

However, she still didn’t want to tell Wu Changcai about the big matter of scheming against Xue Bai.

Wu Lingxi said, “My master’s family has become rich, ‘a thousand silver’ is nothing to them. Changcai, you don’t know how wealthy those noble families are; even a thousand silver isn’t as thick as one of their leg hairs.”

Wu Changcai played along, looking extremely surprised, “Really?”

In fact, he didn’t believe it at all in his heart.

“Of course it’s true. They saw how diligent I am, and just so happened to be in a good mood that day, so they gave me the kinship contract, allowing me to return home, and even rewarded me with some money. I truly thought it was just going to be a little, but it turned out to be this much,” Wu Lingxi said pretentiously.

Wu Changcai continued to play along, acting like he believed her.

Wu Lingxi went on, “You don’t have to worry about my good-for-nothing brother either. As soon as I got back, I gave them money. If he asks me for money because he’s lost at gambling, I definitely won’t give it to him! And he can’t steal it either, I’ve hidden it well!”

“That’s good, that’s good,” Wu Changcai was relieved.

The money was eventually supposed to end up in his hands; it couldn’t all be lost by her brother at the gambling house.

Seeing that Wu Changcai’s clothes were truly shabby, and now that she was dressed quite nicely, being together made her feel as if her value had decreased. Thus, Wu Lingxi took out a pouch from her bosom, which contained a few coins, and forcefully gave it to Wu Changcai, “You refuse to let me keep 200 silver at your place, but you must accept these few. Look at the state of your clothes—it just breaks my heart to see them.”

Wu Changcai, focused on the long con, naturally still firmly refused to accept the money, pushing it back, “If you do this, I won’t come to you again, and we’ll just call it quits. I’m a man, how can I use your money? If you have money, buy some nice clothes for yourself, make every day a good one—that’s what will make me happy. Take it back, take it back. If you really feel sorry for me, I’ll just use my own savings to buy some new clothes. I may not have much, but I can still afford a few outfits. It’s just that I won’t be secretly buying you treats anymore.”

Wu Lingxi naturally felt even more that Wu Changcai was sincere towards her.

After sitting on the small hill for a while longer, Wu Lingxi and Wu Changcai returned to their respective homes, with neither of them noticing that someone was watching them from the trees not far away.

There were two people watching them, naturally sent by Xue Shi. One of them told the other to continue keeping an eye on Wu Lingxi, while he went back to report to Xue Shi.

When Xue Shi heard that Wu Lingxi had deceived Wu Changcai, saying the Yang family had become rich, and it was their good mood that had granted her return home as well as a thousand silver, he immediately called out, “Cunning woman!”

While Xue Shi was cursing Wu Lingxi as a cunning woman on one side, on the other side, Wu Lingxi was having dinner at home, where the family was now very enthusiastic, continuously offering her more dishes to eat, and they had even killed a chicken and bought meat and fish.
