Rebirth: Splendid Marriage in the 80s

Chapter 347: Chapter 347: That Day’s Incident is Hard to Explain

Upon entering the house, Xu Linjiang actually discovered a problem.

He found Chiang Xiao completely lacked curiosity and amazement for this house, and moreover, with the mountain chicken she had squashed to death in hand, she went straight into the kitchen.

How did she know where the kitchen was?

”Little, have you been here before?”

Chiang Xiao was startled for a moment, not expecting to have forgotten to pretend. She pursed her lips and said, ”Uncle, I met Captain Meng around here back then.”

”Oh? What a coincidence?” Xu Linjiang was very surprised, ”Such a coincidence?”

”Yes, I’ve been inside,” Chiang Xiao didn’t want to tell them about what had happened in this house before, fearing they’d be scared, especially since a ferociously evil criminal once lived here, and someone had even died here.

However, she herself wasn’t superstitious, and besides, Chu Liang was a former Supervisor Guard. If he was now willing to rent out this house, it was certainly because those people had no chance of coming back to cause trouble.

Moreover, with so many upright Supervisor Guards coming and going back then, it didn’t matter that someone had died here; any negative or evil energy would have been completely dispelled by their authority.

”Little, you met Captain Meng right here at the beginning? How exactly did you meet? Does that mean you also know the owner of the house?” Ge Xiaotong still asked this question.

Chiang Xiao’s eyes shifted and she patted her bulging pocket and said, ”Aunt, don’t you think we have more important things to do right now?”

Ge Xiaotong still didn’t understand, but Xu Linjiang laughed and said, ”Don’t you want to know how much money we made today?”

”Ah! I want to know!” Ge Xiaotong’s attention was finally drawn over, her eyes lighting up as she looked at Chiang Xiao.

Money was certainly important! Gossip could wait!

Ge Liutao rolled up her sleeves and said, ”You guys go count the money, I’ll go cook.”

Liu Pei really wanted to know how much money they’d made, and, wiping her hands shyly on her clothes, she sheepishly said to Ge Liutao, ”Big sister, I’ll come help in a bit!”

She still wanted to go see the money being split.

Chiang Xiao also saw that they had tidied up the house well that day; with several women cleaning, it felt different. It was much cleaner and tidier than before.

The courtyard was directly in front of the living room, which was not very large, but all the furniture was still there; Chu Liang hadn’t moved anything out.

Chiang Xiao sat at the table and took out the money, a thick bundle of it, which made Liu Pei’s eyes widen in astonishment.

”Three hundred and twelve dollars,” Chiang Xiao didn’t hold back, since they had already agreed upon the distribution, she directly announced the numbers. ”I’ll take one hundred and fifty-six, the rest is for Great Uncle and Uncle!”

With the other half left, Ge Dejun and Xu Linjiang could each get seventy-eight dollars!

Liu Pei couldn’t help asking, ”Did you manage to catch another wild boar this time? How could you earn so much?”

Ge Dejun had already told them the night before that they had made a lot of money the last time because they had been incredibly lucky, catching a wild boar, but they expected this time it would just be some wild vegetables and mushrooms, so there shouldn’t be much money.

Liu Pei was prepared mentally and thought that if she and her son-in-law could each get twenty dollars, it would be the most they could hope for; she hadn’t expected so much!

”Where are there that many wild boars.” Ge Dejun laughed heartily, pointing at Chiang Xiao and said, ”It’s all because Little is lucky, she caught wild hares, mountain chickens, and mountain chickens!”

”So many good things?” Ge Xiaotong exclaimed.

”Isn’t that the case. A whole flock of mountain chickens, Linjiang and I each caught two, guess how Little caught them?” Ge Dejun asked teasingly, barely concealing a laugh.

Chiang Xiao covered her forehead, were they going to talk about how she had crushed a mountain chicken to death again?
