Chapter 277 The Origin of 100 Taels

Uncle Zhang sighed, went back to the kitchen, picked up the bamboo basket and hurried up the mountain.

"Di Qing, you really can't blame me for this, I tried my best, 100 taels of silver, how can I hide it~"

Uncle Zhang shook his head, and looked at Jiang Zhinuan's room, hey, Di Qing, you're lucky!

Uncle and two cousins ​​were exhausted after driving for a few days. After lunch, they went to the room for a lunch break. Di Qing had just put the two to sleep, and when he went out in a wheelchair, he met Jiang Zhinuan with him. Sullen eyes.

Looking at the bank note in her hand again, Di Qing's heart skipped a beat, knowing that Uncle Zhang had revealed something.

"Do you have anything to explain?"

Di Qing just said: "Go back to the room and talk, don't wake up the child."

Jiang Zhinuan didn't push Di Qing either, she turned around and looked a little angry and twisted her waist back to the bedroom. She kicked off her shoes and sat cross-legged on the kang, staring at Di Qing who came in behind, waiting for his explanation.

Di Qing sat in the wheelchair and didn't speak for a long while.

He didn't know how to explain the origin of the money to Jiang Zhinuan. The less Jiang Zhinuan knew about the jade plaque, the better.

The jade badge is something that can prove his identity, and his identity is very sensitive, so I can't say it anymore, for fear that it will bring Jiang Zhinuan a fatal disaster.

Before Jiang Zhinuan changed, Di Qing was thinking about going back all the time, he was waiting for the opportunity.

But now, he thought more than once that it would be a good choice to spend his whole life with Jiang Zhinuan in this mountain.

He knew that one day, his identity would not be concealed.

When that day comes, it may be a smooth future, or it may be a disaster of death. He dare not risk Jiang Zhinuan and the two children. In the situation where he is not fully sure, he hopes that the arrival of that day will be as late as possible.

Sometimes, not speaking, is a kind of protection for Jiang Zhinuan.

However, he didn't know if Jiang Zhinuan would understand his so-called protection.

Jiang Zhinuan sat on the kang and kept looking at Di Qing. When he frowned tightly, she had already decided not to ask.

That's it!

How can a person live without secrets?
Even with the closest people, there will be secrets that cannot be spoken.

Di Qing is, and so is she.

"I don't want to know, but I will return the money to you. I don't need it. I will think of other ways to repair the dam."

The silver bill floated into Di Qing's hands lightly.

There was a look of grievance in Di Qing's eyes: "Why can't you use it? Isn't mine yours? What's wrong with you using my money? I'm a big man who is raised by you at home, eats yours, spends yours, I don't have any What are you saying, you can’t do it with mine?”

Jiang Zhinuan frowned slightly, and said after a long time: "I don't want to use unknown money, every penny our family uses now is earned by ourselves, but your money... It came out, why should I use it?"

She imagined the source of the money, but it was not established.

The Jiang family used to be a big family in Pingxi Town. Perhaps when the family was broken, Di Qing hid some wealth. When he encountered difficulties at this time, he used it.

It is understandable to hide, after all, Jiang Zhinuan in the past is really nothing.

However, Di Qing almost starved himself to death before, if he hid the money, at least he should buy some food for himself and the children.

These can only show that at that time, Di Qing really had no money in his hands, but where did his money come from now, she may not ask, but she will definitely not use it.

For this reason, Di Qing was a little hurt in his heart.

Jiang Zhinuan didn't trust him!
Yes, 100 taels is not a small amount. Ask yourself, if she suddenly gave him 100 taels of silver for him to use casually, wouldn't he doubt the origin of the money?
The answer is yes!
He would doubt where the money came from. If Jiang Zhinuan didn't explain clearly, he would be the same as Jiang Zhinuan now, and would definitely not use the money.

But he really couldn't elaborate on the origin of the money.

He also knew that if Jiang Zhinuan really wanted to know, he could ask Uncle Zhang, she would always find a way to know something from Uncle Zhang.

Instead of letting others tell her, it is better to confess it yourself.

Thinking of this, Di Qing raised his head and looked into Jiang Zhinuan's eyes: "The 100 taels of silver was obtained by giving the jade token to Uncle Zhang and asking him to go to the pawn shop in the town to pawn it."

Jiang Zhinuan continued to look at him, waiting for him to explain the origin of the so-called jade plaque.

Di Qing frowned slightly and looked at her: "The jade token... the jade token is my personal possession, and I have carried it with me since I was a child. I can assure you that the jade token is mine, and I will not steal or snatch it. In vain, but... for the rest, don't ask, okay?"

He seems to know how to show weakness and act like a baby.

Especially in front of Jiang Zhinuan, his eyelids drooped slightly, he was obviously a shrewd big wolf dog, but now he looked like a pitiful little milk dog begging for comfort.

Jiang Zhinuan liked this very much, and sighed helplessly: "Okay, okay, I just don't ask."

"Then take the money and use it. Let's build the dam first, shall we?"

Di Qing approached Jiang Zhinuan in the wheelchair, grabbed her arm and shook it gently.

Jiang Zhinuan shook his head directly: "No way! Since you said that the jade token has been with you since childhood, it must be very important. Go and redeem it immediately!"

"Uh...it's not that important...it doesn't matter if you don't redeem it."

It's just something that can show Di Qing's identity, and it's not important to him. What he's afraid of is that if this thing gets out, someone will follow the clues to find him.

However, he has been hiding in the countryside with two of them for more than five years. Perhaps those people thought he was dead, or no one was looking for him.

Although that uncertain matter is very important, it cannot compare to Jiang Zhinuan's reeds.

He is willing to take the risk to sell the jade token, as long as he can keep the reed marsh, which was built by Jiang Zhinuan from the barrenness, and he wants to help her protect it!
But Jiang Zhinuan doesn't think so!
She knew from the very beginning that Di Qing must not be an ordinary person, but she didn't ask if he didn't tell.

In the past, Di Qing would rather go hungry than exchange the jade token for money. It was enough to let her know how important this jade token is. If he didn’t want to help her build the embankment, he would probably never give this jade token out for the rest of his life. of.

But she still took the money and nodded towards Di Qing.

"I will keep the money first, and I will use it if I have to."

Seeing Jiang Zhinuan took the money, Di Qing was relieved: "My lady, I'm sorry."

Jiang Zhinuan got up and put on his shoes: "It's okay, I can understand, everyone has secrets that they don't want to tell, you don't want to tell, you have your own considerations, but you have told me where the money came from, that's enough gone."

Di Qing pawned such an important thing for her reeds, if she is still angry, then she really doesn't know what to do.

However, she didn't plan to use the 100 taels of silver!

In a while, she and Uncle Zhang will have to get the redemption ticket back, and when they go to town tomorrow, they will quietly redeem the jade token to Di Qing.
