Escape from famine at the beginning: I use space to raise three cute babies
Chapter 52: Take Back the Jade Pendant
"...Then you have to keep your mouth shut and don't tell others about it first, lest the news leaks out. They don't know yet that I'm here to see you."
Upon hearing this, Xiang'erhu nodded quickly: "This is natural. Don't worry, sister, I will listen to your arrangements."
In front of the Xiangyue clan, Xiang Jiuling also said the same thing. Although the Xiangyue clan was a little skeptical, he didn't say anything more with the help of Xiang Erhu.
"Humph, I've long said that Wen Xi is not a good person. I asked you to marry a landlord and still have enough food, clothing and clothing to live in poverty. It would be better for you to treat me and your father as enemies. Do you regret it now?"
Xiang Jiuling nodded, as if she had finally realized her parents' good intentions, "I understand, mother!"
"It's good to know. So what are your plans now? Do you take anything else besides these things when you come out?"
Although this married daughter is just thrown away, Xiang Jiuling is quite beautiful. If she can sell it again, she will definitely be able to get a lot of money. Xiang Yue made a mental calculation and quickly decided to deal with Xiang Jiuling as soon as possible.
The problem with Wen Xi.
Xiang Jiuling was also unambiguous and told her plan: "Mom, I can't go back alone. Wen Xi is so tall and burly. If he starts a fight, I will definitely not be his opponent. How about I do it alone?"
Let Erhu go with me, our Xiang family can't be without people? But... we have to find a way to get him to agree first, we can't force him to do it."
Hearing this, Xiangyue couldn't help but frowned and asked curiously: "How much money did you make with him?"
"About...this number."
Xiang Jiuling showed ten fingers.
The Xiang family couldn't help but take a breath. This was much more valuable than the fifty taels of silver given by the landlord, but where did they get so much money? How come they hadn't heard of it before? Can Wen Xi really give him so much money?
In order to gain trust, Xiang Jiuling told the story about opening a gambling house, and also omitted all the other things that followed, making it into a drama about Wen Xi taking money and not saving her. Anyway, it was hard for them to investigate and tell it now.
You won't reveal any flaws if you lie to them, and you can even find out if you ask them.
When Xiang's father heard this, his eyes suddenly shone: "Oh, if you don't come back early, I...I can still go to the city to help you in your gambling shop. My own family will guard it, which is better than outsiders."
Humph, he said he was from his own family, but ended up selling his biological daughter over and over again.
However, Xiang Jiuling didn't say much, and just said: "So I'm back, right? It's better for us to be a family."
Xiang Jiuling successfully persuaded Xiang's father and Xiang's mother to let Xiang Erhu follow her back to move things.
"Without any further delay, you should leave as soon as possible. If Wen Xi hides all the money, leave now and come back as soon as you get the money."
Xiang Yueshi urged, she was afraid that the money would fall into other people's pockets. She just pushed Xiang Jiuling twice but did not push. She couldn't help but frowned and her face changed: "Why, you don't want to go, I can tell you
, this matter is no joke, we have to get all the money back, our family does not support idle people."
This is really interesting. Xiang Jiuling's face didn't show it, but showed a somewhat troubled expression: "Mom, I know what you mean, but we can't take advantage of Wen Xi, we have to find ways to gain his trust first.
, and he has been dissatisfied with me recently, just because you took away the jade pendant, and what you said all day long is not, I...I can't get anything even if I go back."
Jade pendant...
When Xiang Yue heard this, she immediately became vigilant. She looked at Xiang Jiuling for a moment, wondering if Xiang Jiuling's return was because of the jade pendant in her hand. However, when she thought of Xiang Jiuling's description in her heart, she couldn't help but be greedy again.
, if she dares to lie to her, then she will sell her again.
"Mom, just give that broken jade pendant to sister quickly. It's quite a deal to exchange one jade pendant for so much money. And when sister gets the money, are you still worried about not being able to buy a jade pendant?"
Xiang Erhu, who just wanted to get the money quickly, didn't think much about it at all. When they got the money, how many jade pendants could they want to buy?
After hesitating for a while, Xiangyue finally took out the jade pendant and warned uneasily: "We still have to find a way to get this jade pendant back when the time comes."
She is really greedy. She wants money and a jade pendant. How can there be such a good thing in the world?
Xiang Jiuling took the jade pendant and immediately set off with Xiang Erhu without stopping at all.
"Sister, why are you leaving so fast?"
Xiang Erhu didn't expect Xiang Jiuling, a woman, to walk so fast. He had to trot to keep up.
"I was in a hurry. I didn't tell Wen Xi when I came out this time. I had to go back quickly to avoid his suspicion."
Xiang Jiuling actually just wanted to get rid of him. Now that she had obtained the jade pendant, her goal had been achieved, and there was no point in getting entangled with Xiang Erhu.
Now that she is alone, it is easy to get rid of anyone.
Choosing a path that few people walked on, Xiang Jiuling clenched the cold jade pendant in her hand and quickened her pace.
After about a cup of tea, a figure suddenly appeared in front of him. Xiang Jiuling couldn't help but frown, but when he saw that familiar face, he couldn't help being startled: "Why are you here? I didn't mean that I was going out to look for you."
Ingredients?”
"You are still lying to me. Why do you have to travel so far to find ingredients? You...you are not looking for your parents, right?"
Seeing Xiang Jiuling, Wen Xi was relieved, but his tone was still full of worry.
Since Xiang Jiuling left, Wen Xi always felt that something was wrong and felt uneasy, so he searched all the way here. He guessed right, she had indeed returned to the village here.
"I have something to do with them, so it can be considered as a resolution to my worries."
Before he finished speaking, a group of unknown people suddenly rushed out of the originally quiet woods. They were all dressed in black, holding swords in their hands, and were looking at them eagerly.
Seeing this posture, Xiang Jiuling understood that these people were all practicing fighters and were thugs who had undergone rigorous training.
The two of them were surrounded by these people, and one of them said fiercely: "Wen, hand over your things quickly, or don't blame us for being rude."
"What?"
I originally thought that the two were unlucky enough to encounter bandits who were robbing them on the road, but I didn't expect that these people were coming for them.
However, these people obviously behaved strangely, but apart from the valuable piece of jade pendant, everything else they wore was worthless. What they were looking for...
By the way, jade pendant...
Xiang Jiuling woke up instantly. It seemed that this jade pendant was not an ordinary thing. It was worthy of so many people surrounding them. That meant... Wen Xi's identity was actually not that simple?
Wen Xi frowned and looked at the people who were getting ready to go, and said solemnly: "There is nothing you want here."
