Chapter 1610: Tell the Truth!
....
After the village chief left, Jiang Zhennan!s face was cold, and he said with a faint anger,” Xiao Jingrui, this is too much. Does he think this is Black Clouds Kingdom? Does he think he can do whatever he wants?”
Although the words of the village chief were not plete, from the fear on his face, it could be guessed that Xiao Jingrui must have used some kind of threat, and the threat was obviously to threaten the lives of the entire village.
Thinking of this, Jiang Zhennan hammered the stone table again.
And then…
Lin Yuelan and Liu Yichen immediately jumped out of their seats. Then, they heard a ” kacha kacha ” sound. Finally, there was a ” bang ” sound. The stone table had already shattered into pieces and fell to the ground.
Fortunately, Lin Yuelan and Liu Yichen ran fast. Otherwise, they would have eaten a mouthful of mud.
Then…
“What happened? What happened?” The old man who was killing chickens in the backyard heard the motion and quickly ran out. However, he was soon stunned and became dumbfounded.
However, the stone table in his courtyard had already turned into a pile of broken stones.
This… What was going on?
How did this stone table turn into a pile of gravel?
The old man said in fear, “This… What’s going on?”
Lin Yuelan looked at the old man’s expression and said to him,” Old man, I’m sorry for breaking your stone table! ”
As she spoke, Lin Yuelan took out a piece of silver from her bag and handed it to the old man.” I wonder if this silver is enough?”
The old uncle was instantly happy when he saw the silver. He quickly took the silver and said with a smile,” It’s enough, it’s enough!”
Such a large piece of broken silver was at least two taels. Let alone one stone table, and even ten pieces would be enough.
After receiving the silver, he glanced at the gravel on the ground and said,”
Three guests, please wait a moment. I’ll clean up this place first.”
As he spoke, he bent down to move the large pieces of gravel from the ground. He went to the corner of the wall to pick up a shovel and a dustpan to sweep away the mud. After that, he returned to the house and took out a square table to put on the stone pillars.
The table looked quite clean. The old man wiped it with a clean cloth and said to them,” Please take a seat! Hehe, I won’t be able to get a stone table in a short time. Dear guests. please make do with it!”
Lin Yuelan smiled and said,” We’ve troubled you!’
Although this person wanted money, he wanted it openly. Moreover, because of the money, he had treated them well.
After cleaning up, the old man went back to the backyard to clean up the meat.
In the backyard an old woman who was cooking in the kitchen walked to the backyard and asked the old man in a low voice,” Old man, who are these people? They are handsome and look very rich.” At this point, she looked outside and asked softly,” Did they pay again?”
The old man glanced at her and said unhappily,” Go and prepare your meal! “Then, he thought for a moment and said,” Old woman, don’t tell the village that we took money from the guests.”
The old woman also had a look of understanding on her face. She sighed softly and said,” We didn’t mean to collect money from these customers. We have no choice. Look at our eldest son. He’s already in his twenties, but he hasn’t married a wife yet. Aren’t those people just looking down on our eldest son for being poor?”At this point, she said happily,” This is great. We’re rich now. Other than the eight taels of betrothal gifts for my eldest son’s wife, we can continue to save the remaining money. In a few years, we can build a large brick house.’
The more the old woman spoke, the happier she became.
The old man was also quite happy because of this unexpected fortune.
Therefore, he had to treat these three guests well and not let them down.
Outside, Lin Yuelan didn’t mind at all. The look in the old man’s eyes when he asked for money was very simple and cute.
After all, he wasn’t the greedy type.
Liu Yichen looked at Lin Yuelan and Jiang Zhennan’s expressions. This time, he asked seriously,” Sister, what’s going on? Jiang….” He looked at Jiang Zhennan and continued to ask,” Why is Jiang Yunfeng with Xiao Jingrui? Also, didn’t Xiao Jingrui return to the Black Clouds Kingdom? Why is he here?”
