Chapter 77: One Hundred Thousand Taels of Gold

Lu Li listened to Sheng Wanqiu's high-pitched voice and her flushed face, and thought she was complaining that it was not enough.

Come to think of it, the medicines he had taken and the doctors he had consulted since he was a child had cost him far more than this amount of money, but none of them could cure him. However, the small bottle of mysterious liquid she gave him cured him almost completely.

Ding Dali said that if he had two more bottles, he would definitely be able to recover and wield swords and guns again.

Since he was a child, he envied his younger brother for being able to practice martial arts with their father. He could not breathe when he got a little excited, so he could only stay in his room and read books desperately.

"gold!"

"One hundred thousand taels of gold!"

Lu Li's voice was like heavenly sound, exploding in Sheng Wanqiu's mind like fireworks.

Damn it! Gold! Kill me, kill me, kill me now, woo woo woo, I am still a poor man!
Sheng Wanqiu's heart was already spinning like a tornado. There were so many wealthy people in the world, couldn't she be one more? She was still gloating over the fact that she had four thousand taels of ginseng.

Wow, he just gave me 100,000 taels of gold!

If her grandmother knew that she would soon have 100,000 taels of gold, she would probably have a mouthful of gold teeth!
Opportunities are rare and will not come again. Suppressing the urge to scream, I made the decision immediately.

"make a deal!"

"Come on! Let's pinky promise!"

If Sheng Wanqiu didn't agree, she would slap herself a few times. The saying "treating money as dirt" didn't exist in her mind. She would even treat her like dirt for money.

When Lu Li saw Sheng Wanqiu extending her hand, he didn't know what to do, so he could only imitate her movements and hooked his little finger.

Sheng Wanqiu was afraid that he would go back on his word, so she immediately hooked his little finger.

"Hook, hang yourself, and I won't change for a hundred years!"

Then she stretched out her thumb and pressed it together with Lu Li's thumb.

"It's already been stamped! When I find it, I'll tell Shopkeeper Jiang and have him notify you!"

Then Sheng Wanqiu ran away happily. Hahaha, she wanted to find a place where no one was around and howl a few times to vent her excitement.

Lu Lijun's face flushed slightly as he watched her running away. Was she shy?
Zero Two who protects him in secret: A love-brained master is not acceptable!
···
Because Sheng Xiahua and his wife were also going back to Sishui Town, Manager Jiang invited them to go together. There were several carriages anyway, so it was no problem to take two people with them.

Sheng Chunhua and his wife followed Sun Erzhu's ox cart. It happened that Sun Erzhu was going to the next village to do some business, and it was also on his way. The family of four got on the ox cart with all their bags.

"Wanqiu girl, we'll go back first. See you at the restaurant tomorrow!"

Jiang Ping had already boarded the carriage. Lu Li lifted the curtain and saw Sheng Wanqiu and her three younger brothers standing at the door to see them off.

"Okay, Uncle Jiang, be safe on the road, and see you tomorrow!"

"Mr. Lu, goodbye. I will keep your affairs in mind and tell you as soon as I have any news!"

"Goodbye!" Sheng Wanqiu smiled brightly at the two of them. It would be a shame if she didn't smile brightly! Gold, gold, don't you want it anymore?
This is an important customer, we must not offend him.

"Okay, see you later, Miss Sheng!" Lu Li also nodded slightly in response.

"Brother Lu, remember to come and play with me when you have time! I will take you to pick bird eggs then!" Sheng Huaimu waved at him with a smile.

Lu Li couldn't help but feel his scalp tingling when he thought about how this kid had captured a toad alive, but he couldn't discourage the enthusiasm of a child, so he smiled and nodded.

But why did he feel that the smallest kid standing next to this boy had a sense of familiarity? It was an indescribable feeling, as if he was someone he knew, but he couldn't remember who it was for the moment.

The horse wheels began to turn, and several large carriages with an ancient charm slowly drove out of Qingshan Village.

What’s funny is that there was a fancy horse-drawn carriage following behind, and Ding Dali was driving the carriage while grinning with his teeth bared.

He will soon have black bear gall, which is a good thing. Jiang Ping said that the black bear is very big, so the gall must be very big.

Free things are always good. He also went to see the land she planted. Every plant was growing very well. It showed that she had put a lot of effort into it. There would be many more good things in the future, so this relationship must be maintained.

Yang Wei sat in the carriage. Only now did he feel like he was alive again. He looked at this priceless carriage, touching it here and there, his face full of excitement and curiosity.

I was excited because I could ride in such a nice carriage, and I was curious about how Sheng Wanqiu knew Manager Jiang.

Looking at Shengxiahua who was resting with her eyes closed, and the embroidery needle pinned to her collar with a cold glow, he wanted to ask but didn't dare. The words came to his lips but he swallowed them back. It's better to be honest. This family is really not to be messed with!
Everyone in the Sheng Dashan family had a sad face at this moment, except Sheng Zhaodi who had a broken leg.

She tightly held in her hand the small piece of silver that Sheng Chunhua had secretly slipped to her. Although she and her aunt were not close before, and they only called each other when they met, she did not expect that Sheng Chunhua would secretly slip her silver today.

Her aunt's words were still replaying in her mind.

"Girls can only have a way out if they can stand on their own feet. You are not a bad kid. Your embroidery skills are very good. As long as you don't give up, there will be a way out!"

"Look at your aunt. Now she has stood up on her own. The Yang family will never dare to bully her again."

"You still have a long way to go. Don't give up. I believe in you!"

Sheng Zhaodi hadn't heard anyone say "believe in her" for a long time. Her dry heart seemed to be swept by a warm current, and her heart was sore that she wanted to cry, but she couldn't cry. She had to be strong.

Since she was a child, she has been learning embroidery from her younger aunt Sheng Xiahua, because she is the first granddaughter of the Sheng family. At that time, Mrs. Sheng was very kind to her, but her temper became more and more twisted later, which was all thanks to her mother Liu Juan.

Every day, she told the sisters that Mrs. Sheng was partial to Sheng Wanqiu and her brother. You have to know that they were still young. Listening to these instigating words day after day, it was inevitable that they would develop hostility towards Sheng Wanqiu. Their personalities became more and more extreme, and they could not stand Sheng Wanqiu at all.

To be honest, Sheng Wanqiu's situation is not as good as hers, but she dares to fight. Whether she was a child or now, Sheng Wanqiu dares to fight others with a knife. She has only learned Liu Juan's sarcasm and blames all her misfortunes on others.

If she had not gone there in anger when Liu Juan drove her up the mountain and insisted on competing with Sheng Wanqiu, her leg might have been saved.

Sheng Zhaodi smiled bitterly, looked at her mutilated calf, and dark hatred flashed in her eyes.

Yes! She hates Liu Juan now, but this is also her own karma, isn't it?
