Chapter 48: Become the Local
nough. She had to find a way to draw the attention of the highest authority, the Emperor.So, she gave her only piece of jewelry to the jailer in exchange for spreading rumors on her behalf.She had the...An Xuetang chuckled. She liked his unreserved support of her like this.
"Alright, I'll go find the village head tomorrow and ask him for help."
"Does Tangtang want to buy land in this village or nearby"
"Yeah, what else"
Mo Yunjing shook his head. "Not advisable. The villagers seem kind, but once everyone knows you've made a fortune, do you think you can still live peacefully here"
" "
An Xuetang was taken aback. That's right, she now got along well with the villagers, but once they knew about her wealth, they would surely be envious.
Humans are like that, when they're envious, they can do anything.
She couldn't guarantee that everyone would still be able to treat her calmly and peacefully after they knew she was wealthy.
And she had finally broken ties with the An family. If they knew she had made a fortune, they would definitely find ways to bother her.
She hates nothing more than trouble!
Thinking about it this way, buying land in the village is indeed not a good idea.
What advice does Jing have
"Go to the tooth fairy."
Matchmaker, which is similar to the middlemen today, they usually have resources in their hands.
An Xuetang readily agreed, "Alright, I'll go to the toothless woman tomorrow and buy a lot of land. Then I'll plant lots of grain and take good care of my Ah Jing. I won't let my Ah Jing starve or freeze."
Mò Yún Jǐng's deep eyes stared at An Xue Tang. Her words always had the ability to so easily disrupt his heartbeat.
When An Xuetang said this, she was actually just joking.
But as fate would have it, one day in the future, she truly did make that happen; she made sure he never went hungry or cold again.
"Tangtang." Mo Yunjing's voice was low and magnetic.
An Xuetang blinked. "What's wrong"
His voice was so pleasant to her ears, and she suddenly found herself enjoying hearing Mo Yunjing call her name like that.
Mo Yunjing's thin lips moved slightly, as if he wanted to say something, but in the end, he shook his head. "It's nothing, Tangtang, you should rest first. You must be tired after running around the city all day, right"
"Just fine."
An Xuetang suddenly stood up, "No, no, I feel very excited right now, I can't wait to be a landowner now, and plant a lot of grain, fine rice, fruit trees, and so on."
She hurried into the room, turning back and saying, "Ah Jing, play by yourself for a while. I'm going to write down my get-rich plan so I don't forget."
Mo Yunjing looked at her flustered appearance, he helplessly curled his lips into a smile.
On the other side, Dong Ge returned to the village from An Xue Tang's house. On his way, he was suddenly called out by someone.
"Brother Dong."
The person who called her was Yang Xingming's sister, Yang Xiao.
Dong Ge turned his head to look at Yang Xiao. When he saw it was her, his eyes darkened.
He didn't want to see the Yang family at all.
Before, the Yang family enjoyed the benefits An Xue Tang provided them while looking down on her, speaking ill of her everywhere.
Dong Ge'er despises such people.
But he didn't show it on his face. At this time, he just looked at Yang Xiao lightly, "What's the matter"
He was cold, but Yang Xiao didn't care at all. She liked Dong Ge'er in her heart. In her eyes, only Dong Ge'er, the scholar from their village, was worthy of her.
She looks down on all other commoners.
So she is now 16 years old, and hasn't been spoken to by any suitors. She's waiting for her East Brother-in-law to come to her house and propose.
Yang Xiaojiao shyly lowered her head and whispered, "Dongge'er, you... where did you just go"
Dongge'er frowned slightly, "Is something the matter"
“I…” Yang Xiao pursed her lips, seeming a little wronged. It was probably because Dong Ge didn't pay much attention to her, “I just wanted to remind you that there are some unclean things on this mountain. Dong Ge, please don't go up the mountain casually, especially not to that small wooden house.”
The small cottage is the home of Mo Yunjing and An Xuetang. Right now, Dong Ge'er listens to her talking about the small cottage, he squints his eyes, "What do you mean Why is the small cottage not clean"
Hearing him bring it up, Yang Xiaomou’s eyes lit up, and she excitedly explained, “Dongge, you probably don’t know this yet This little wooden house is weird, and there's An Xuetang too, she must be up to something.”
"..."
Don't Go only frowned, but didn't speak.
Yang Xia didn't notice his strangeness. At this moment, she continued to explain, "There must be something dirty in the little wooden house. It can attract a lot of poisonous snakes, and that An Xuetang must have been possessed by some dirty thing."
"!"
"Ever since An Xuetang entered that small wooden house, she's become a different person. So she definitely isn't the same An Xuetang anymore. Dongge, if you see her, be sure to keep your distance."
Dong Ge'er's thoughts suddenly sharpened. He knew about An Xue Tang's change, but he didn't think she was possessed by anything.
He just felt that An Xuetang must have figured things out and didn't want to live such a pathetic life like before.
This Yang Xiao actually said that An Xuetang was possessed, this is a bit too much!
Dong Ge'er turned cold, "Is that all you came to see me for"
"... "
Yang Xiao lowered her head and then softly spoke, "Dongge'er, I... I am already 16 years old."
So he can come to propose now.
Dong Ge frowned, she was 16 years old, then what
What does he have to do with it
Easty just sighed, "I understand."
As soon as he finished speaking, he wanted to leave.
But Yang Xiao didn't want him to leave just like that. She stopped him again, "Dongge'er, you... when will you come to my house to ask for my hand in marriage"
"…"
Dong'er frowned, "Engagement I'm afraid there are no other men in our family who can marry into the Yang family."
"You... aren't you"
"! Dong'er was speechless, "I'm sorry, I don't want to marry you."
Although Dong'er was young, she understood a bit about matters between men and women. However, he didn't plan to marry her. A woman from the Yang family... he would never marry one.
Even if Yang Xiao had done nothing wrong, just based on An Xue Tang's attitude, Dong Ge would not marry her.
He didn't have many demands on his wife, but he did require respect for his family, and now An Xue Tang was part of that.
He is her only sister. Anyone who disrespects or bullies her is going against him. How could he possibly marry a woman who has bullied An Xue Tang
Yang Xiao was stunned on the spot. She obviously didn't expect Dong Ge to refuse so decisively.
She still thought that over the years, Dongge had been different towards her.
After all, in this village, her appearance is among the best, there's no reason why Dong Ge would refuse her!
"Anything else Or are you just getting in my way"
Don Ge'er really didn't want to stay with her any longer, not even for a second.ang narrowed her eyes slightly, "Actually, you don't have any cats at all. You just used an illusion to lure King Beijang here."The man in the mask narrowed his eyes slightly, he glanced at An Xuetang...
