Reborn as an Ugly Wife in the Countryside

Chapter 1275: Chapter 1277: This Mountain Is as Good as BoughtRegarding this matter, Chu Lian and Wang Xiangxiang had a secretive conversation in the room for a long time.

Wang Xiangxiang knew how private and important this matter was; even though she was usually carefree, she understood the seriousness of it. She looked at Chu Lian with sincere eyes and promised, ”Husband, don’t worry, the relationship between the Chu Family and the Sima Family, your sister’s issues, the child’s matters, I absolutely won’t tell anyone.”

Seeing Wang Xiangxiang like this, Chu Lian pulled her into his embrace without saying anything else, just uttering two doting words, ”Silly girl.”

If he was afraid she would tell, he wouldn’t have chosen to tell her everything completely.

He loved her, he trusted her even more, so he chose to tell her everything without keeping any secrets.

...

Such a big thing happened at the Chu Family, but Xiaoxiao and Yang Ming were completely unaware; they were still worrying about purchasing the mountain.

Three days had passed since the Village Chief left the Yang Family. Those few households seemed to be hesitating and hadn’t sent the hazelnuts back to the Yang Family yet. Xiaoxiao wasn’t anxious. Seeing her calm demeanor, Yang Ming couldn’t help but ask, ”Honey, why aren’t you worried at all?”

”Haha, why should I be anxious? It doesn’t matter if we buy the mountain or not,” Xiaoxiao said indifferently.

Yang Ming’s lips curled into a smile. Seeing his wife’s contradictory expression, he couldn’t help but speak, ”Is that so? Well then, I’ll tell the Village Chief not to have them send the hazelnuts back, even if they do, we won’t buy the mountain. Buying the mountain would just give you more work, and it’s exhausting. I’m leaving soon, and I’m not comfortable leaving you here.”

Upon hearing this, Xiaoxiao immediately reacted and stood up, ”Don’t.”

Seeing his wife’s anxious look, Yang Ming playfully brushed her nose with his finger and said in a doting tone, ”So, are we still buying it?”

”Buy, buy, buy, I’m definitely buying this mountain.”

Hearing his wife speak the truth, Yang Ming seemed quite satisfied. He sat down at the table and said, ”Then let’s wait for them to send the hazelnuts back.”

Xiaoxiao looked confident, ”Of course they’ll send the hazelnuts back.”

What she said wasn’t just wishful thinking; anyone with a bit of foresight wouldn’t choose to go against her. Besides, with the Village Chief helping, this matter was almost certain, she didn’t need to worry at all, it was just a matter of time.

But Yang Ming poured cold water on her enthusiasm, ”Honey, what if they don’t send the hazelnuts back?”

”Impossible, I’m confident they’ll send them back.” They’re all rural people, easily swayed by talk, especially when it comes to money.

”The other households will definitely send them back, but Aunt Lan Hua’s family is another story.” Although Yang Ming didn’t want to discourage his wife, he had learned in the past few days which households had picked the hazelnuts; they all lived in the same village, and he was familiar with each family.

Aunt Lan Hua was famous for taking advantage of small opportunities for personal gain. She probably wouldn’t accept this deal where she does work without any immediate benefit.

Besides, her family picked the most, so it’s likely they wouldn’t easily send the hazelnuts back.

Before Xiaoxiao could consider Yang Ming’s words, there was a noisy commotion outside, ”Auntie, are you home? Are Yang Ming and his wife at home?”

Xiaoxiao glanced out the window and brightened up; speak of the devil, here they were to bring her the hazelnuts.

She excitedly called to Yang Ming, ”See, they’re sending them back. Let’s go quickly.”
