When Zhou came to the house asking for money and food, Aunt Chi was wary.

The old man didn't know how much money he had, so she took out half of it, thirteen taels of silver, intending to deposit it in a money exchange.

That way it won't get lost.

But it was stolen!

Aunt Chi searched frantically all over town for many days, but she couldn't find the little beggar.

Thirteen taels of silver!

If I said that, wouldn't the old man scold me to death?

Actually, she now regrets it a little. How could she have been so blinded by greed? She could have just hidden those thirteen taels of silver from the old man.

well!

Aunt Chi sighed heavily, turned over and fell asleep.

Before we knew it, it was June.

After a month of construction, the Meng family's courtyard has been completed, and the workers' wages have been paid.

Mr. Meng invited the village chief, two other respected elders from the clan, and the Chi family to a meal to celebrate their new home.

The children all eagerly went to visit the Meng family's courtyard.

Taking the opportunity, Meng Chenyi picked up Chi Tang and led her around the yard.

Chi Tang's bright black eyes darted around as she grabbed the older boy's red ear, listening to his introduction.

Suddenly, Chi Tang felt a sudden unease in her heart!

That sudden sense of danger made her feel extremely uncomfortable, as if a thousand needles were pricking her heart, and her hair stood on end!

An overwhelming feeling of terror and discomfort instantly enveloped her, as if the river had engulfed her!

"ah!"

Little Tangtang hugged Meng Chenyi's head in terror and screamed.

Meng Chen stopped abruptly!
