Houfu Key Class

Chapter 141 Gambling with the Old Couple

The little kid was still a little kid, and everything he was thinking was written on his face. Xu Wan put her hand on her forehead, trying to block her smiling face.

This kid is so cute that it hurts.

However, you must hold back.

She adjusted her mood and looked over. The little devil still looked angry and ready to rebel at any time.

"What else do you have..."

Just as Xu Wan was about to finish, she saw the little devil asking: "What about my brother? Will his moon silver also rise to sixty taels?"

Xu Wan raised her eyebrows slightly and said: "These ten taels are a birthday gift for you. I think from your point of view, to be fair, you should wait until Wen Xiu's birthday to increase it to sixty taels."

Zong Jincheng: "..."

I say this for my own good.

But in that case, his brother would have lost dozens of taels of silver. After the little devil calculated the accounts, he felt that they still lost money.

He shook his head and said: "I don't want this fairness, I want it to rise together."

Xu Wan nodded and said: "Okay, then I respect your opinion. I will tell Butler Liu tomorrow and make adjustments to your Yueyin."

"Okay! Then I'm leaving." After the little devil said that, he left. His movements were straightforward and not entangled at all.

Cuizhi came in from the outside and asked curiously: "Madam, what did you say? Mr. Cheng seemed to have left in a hurry?"

Xu Wanhan smiled and said: "I asked for money, but I didn't have much success. Looking at the anxious look, I guess I'm going to harass my father-in-law and mother-in-law."

Cuizhi immediately opened her eyes: "Isn't that the end?"

"It's over?" Xu Wan frowned, "Are the father-in-law and mother-in-law's willpower so unstable?"

Cuizhi swallowed and said, "I don't know now, but I was very unsteady before. The old man loves his grandson the most, and Mr. Cheng is extremely smart, so he basically responds to all requests..."

Xu Wan also thought about the plans that the little devil had just made to fool her. If she hadn't reacted quickly, it might have been easy for him to evade the important points and take them away.

This guy is very good at deceiving people.

She prepared for the worst and comforted: "It's okay. Even if he gets the money tonight, it's useless. I'll just ask Butler Liu to confiscate it for him tomorrow."

Anyway, with the reputation of being a vicious stepmother, she can do whatever she wants.

Thinking about it this way, you actually feel a little bit happy?

Cuizhi: "..."

So unreasonable.

But it looks so practical.

On the other side, Zong Jincheng told the old man and his wife the plan to deceive Xu Wan again.

The old couple were shocked when they heard this.

"Oh my god, sir, look at this. Is this our little sweet grandson Jin Cheng? He speaks and does things very clearly now. Even an adult wouldn't be able to speak so clearly."

The old Marquis also stared at the little devil, and the little guy took the opportunity to act cute for him, smiling brightly.

Even though the old Marquis was a rough man, he couldn't bear it. He shook his head repeatedly and said: "It's incredible. We Jincheng are people who want to do big things at first glance. When we grow up, we will definitely amaze the government and the public."

The old lady nodded in agreement, smiling so hard that she could hardly see her eyes.

She repeatedly praised: "Wan'er is really good at teaching children. I haven't seen her for only half a year, but she has taught my little grandson so well. I don't know how good she will be three years later. I think I will teach her so well." Wan'er's hundred thousand taels are going to be spent, and Jin Cheng will definitely win the first prize!"

When the little devil saw the old couple praising each other, he quickly said while the iron was hot: "This shows that the rewards from grandma are useful. Look how well she accomplished her goal. I also want a goal like this, grandma, can you Order one for me too, so I will study harder and maybe won the first prize, just like my dad!"

The old lady was so confused that she was deceived and kept saying: "Okay, okay, I'll make it for you..."

"Cough cough cough cough..." The old Marquis noticed something was wrong and quickly reminded her frantically.

The old lady woke up from a dream and quickly changed her words: "Oh no, your mother is in charge of the money at home now. You should tell her about your plan and wait until she agrees."

"Ah? Why do you want me to listen to her?" The little devil tugged at the hem of the old marquis's clothes and began to act like a baby, "Grandpa, I like the master now, like entering the study, and like my brother, but I don't like Xu Wan. Can you Don’t let her set it for me. Anyway, it’s all the same for you. Just you and grandma set goals for me, and I’ll compete with her to see who can accomplish it better, okay?”

"Competition?" Lao Houye came from a martial arts academy and knew how important competition is in motivating learning, so he was immediately moved.

In fact, what Jin Cheng said was correct. It was the same whether the goal was Wan'er's Ding or theirs. In the end, it was the Hou Mansion who spent the money.

"That's fine by me..."

"Cough cough cough!" This time the old lady gave him a crazy wink.

The old Marquis quickly changed his words: "I think we have to talk to your mother and she agrees. Our Marquis Mansion is an enlightened family. We have promised your mother the right to run the house, so we can't always interfere in her affairs, otherwise Aren’t you going to make people laugh?”

Little Devil: "..."

Failed again, failed again.

Damn it!

What went wrong?

The little boy asked with a dark face: "Grandma, Grandpa, why do you keep coughing?"

He discovered that every time he was about to succeed, he would be interrupted by a cough.

The old lady coughed and said: "This, maybe this is the first time I have been away from home for so long, so I feel a little acclimated when I come back. Just, my throat always feels itchy."

The old marquis also said: "Yes, I have been feeling unwell for two days. The doctor came and said there was nothing he could do. He said that taking medicine would not cause any harm. I just needed to endure it for two days."

The little devil's face darkened: "Will I still feel uncomfortable if I return to my own home?"

"Of course..." The old lady made up a story seriously, "If you live in a place for a long time, you will get used to the climate there. It is normal to feel uncomfortable if you suddenly move to another place. And you know, the broken place of the capital city is really not good for people."

The little devil knew.

But he just felt that something was wrong, so his body responded correctly for him: "Grandma, I want to talk to you alone for a while."

As soon as he finished speaking, the old marquis's discomfort became more severe: "Cough cough cough cough..."

The old lady heard the code and started to cough cough cough...

"..."

Now even a fool would know that they were acting.

Zong Jincheng was angry. He shouted angrily and aggrievedly: "Grandfather, grandmother, you just don't love me anymore. Don't you want me? I am your most precious grandson!"

Speaking of this, he suddenly thought of his brother and quickly added: "And my brother, he is so pitiful. He has lived a hard life in the slums for so many years. He finally became the legitimate son, but he has to follow me and suffer misfortune. He only gets a few dozen taels of silver every month. It's really pitiful."

The little devil changed from howling to reasoning and moving emotions, using Zong Wenxiu as a starting point to make the old couple feel guilty, so as to achieve the goal of getting rid of poverty for him and his brother.

Anyway, even if they don't want to give him money, they can give his brother a raise.
