Chapter 95 Gold Rush
Cheng Weiyao frowned deeply. She knew the hidden meaning of Li Kui's words. Her sister-in-law's injured foot had not yet healed. Although the little girl was taking medicine, her face had no color for some time, and it was obvious that she still needed to rest.
"My patience is limited. I'll count to three. Three, two..."
Li Kuicai ignored the condemning looks from the crowd, casually stretched out his finger and began to count down as if no one was around.
"You want to eat fish, right? Of course I'll catch one..."
When Cheng Weiyao turned around, she had already put on an expressionless face and adjusted her mood.
But when they arrived at the river, Cheng Wei Yao found that she had agreed too early. In the past, whether she was spearing fish or fishing, the water was always shallow and at most she would only get her feet wet.
But this time, it really was a small river rushing forward. Cheng Wei Yao took a look at the sound of the water and felt a little unsure. Not knowing the depth of the water, it would be risky to go into the water rashly.
"What's wrong? Are you going to regret it? Where's all that talk you just said? It's okay, it doesn't matter if it doesn't come down. That Wen Liyu..."
Seeing Cheng Weiyao didn't move, the officers stood by the river and watched. They had already tested the depth of the water with their long swords, but it wouldn't drown anyone, at most they'd just get wet. Cheng Weiyao had ruined the good thing last time, and today they had to make up for it all in one go. It really felt good to have something in their hands!
Cheng Weiyao heard the urging voices from behind, and glanced at the officers' long swords out of the corner of her eye. She already knew what was going on. They didn't want to eat fish, they wanted to take advantage of them.
However, the officials' greed and lust are worth taking advantage of... In this way, Cheng Weiyao's spiritual sense moved and she found a golden modern handicraft in the warehouse of QQ Farm.
Since there's a river, it's normal for gold to appear, right? After all, whether it's ancient or modern, as long as people are greedy, there will always be fish that bite...
From the officers' perspective, Cheng Weiyao walked directly into the water with her shoes on, looking dazed. With her bare hands, she didn't look like she was going fishing, but rather like she was committing suicide by jumping into the river.
Since it was a feudal and conservative ancient time, not to mention showing one's legs, even women's feet could not be seen blindly. If it was serious, it would be said to have ruined their reputation.
"Brother, is it okay for us to make things difficult for her like this? If she gets upset and dies here, Wen Chengyun won't let it go..."
Li Kui was simple-minded and straightforward in his speech. He immediately expressed the concerns of the officers. They just wanted to take advantage of Cheng Weiyao and make her look bad, but they didn't intend to force her to death on the spot.
Wang Gang frowned, looking at the dazed Cheng Weiyao with some pity. It was true that he had a grudge against Prince Qingping, but...
"Oh my God! This is..."
While Brother Wang was hesitating, Cheng Weiyao's consciousness had already withdrawn from the QQ Farm. She bent down, her eyes shining with golden light, and fished out a golden cup from the river.
As soon as the cup was out of water, the officers' eyes changed instantly, greed suddenly appearing. On the contrary, Wang Gang just twitched his eyebrows and said, "Bring it up and let us see it?"
Cheng Weiyao turned sideways and raised her eyebrows slightly, looking very protective of her food: "Officer, please stop. I fished it out myself. Why should I show it to you? If I really want to see it, can I bring it back? I think it's like throwing meat buns at a dog. It's a one-way trip, no return..."
Normal people will protect gold when they see it. After all, they are not saints, and it seems a bit fake to say that they are not moved by money.
"You've been talking so much, come here and give it to me!"
Li Kui was not like Wang Gang, who asked politely. Instead, he took a step forward, eagerly snatched Cheng Weiyao's cup, and took a sip.
A clear and pleasant sound came from between his teeth. Because of his excitement and excessive force, Li Kui's expression became ferocious for a moment.
Cheng Weiyao quickly lowered her head to hide her uncontrollable smile. In order to make it look more realistic, she chose a gold-lacquered object. With modern technology, the hardness of the metal is very high.
"Brother! This looks like real gold..."
Li Kui hadn't finished speaking yet, and was holding his cheek with excitement and pain, when he heard the sound of people falling into the water one after another around him, and the posture was more reckless than a moth flying into a flame.
After Cheng Weiyao finished laughing, she frowned, lifted her skirt slightly, and walked back to the shore. As expected, a small benefit attracted the officials, but...
She raised her gaze and landed on Wang Gang, who stood calmly by the river. They say money makes all the difference. If this man had been paid to act against the Prince of Qingping's mansion, he shouldn't have been indifferent to a hard currency like gold. It seemed like things weren't that simple...
"What a coincidence! If there wasn't another one in this river..."
Wang Gang felt Cheng Weiyao's scrutinizing gaze on him, and his eyes narrowed slightly. He always felt that there was something fishy about this matter. It was impossible that there would be a surprise as soon as he caused trouble for Cheng Weiyao. Could it be that this woman was born with good luck?
Cheng Weiyao wasn't panicked at all. Instead, she raised her eyebrows slightly and stood with her arms folded across her chest. "Are you joking, officer? I just stumbled upon you by chance. I'm lucky to have met you, not to have enjoyed you. If gold were everywhere, there wouldn't be the saying 'scarcity makes things valuable.'"
"Madam, be careful not to catch a cold. The fire is already lit."
Wen Chengyun appeared at the right time, and the next second his long coat was draped over Cheng Weiyao's shoulders. The man's long coat directly covered the faintly visible graceful curves of his lower body.
"Thank you, husband!"
Cheng Weiyao smiled with her eyes curved. Wen Chengyun arrived just in time. Wang Gang probably wouldn't dare to bother with her anymore.
However, what Cheng Weiyao never expected was that this action made Wang Gang, who was staring at their leaving backs, look slightly darker and determined to kill them.
I originally thought that she was just a substitute bride, but now it seems that she still has some weight in Wen Chengyun's heart. Since he cares about her, it is necessary to destroy her!
Cheng Wei Yao had just sat down next to the warm campfire when she shuddered inexplicably. It felt like she was being stared at. She inexplicably thought of Wang Gang's calm eyes.
"Sister-in-law, warm your hands. The police are so mean. They only know how to bully girls..."
Wen Chengming thought Cheng Weiyao was cold, so he quickly held her hand with his little hand, blew on it, and rubbed it.
Cheng Weiyao was moved by the childish and cute behavior of this warm boy, and immediately curled the corners of her mouth, and the next second a cup of warm water was stuffed into her palm.
"Warm yourself up, a bunch of mean-spirited villains who only know how to bully others..."
Wen Liyu appeared in her sight with an awkward and concerned face. She was worried that Cheng Weiyao would be troubled by the officials in broad daylight. It seemed that she was worrying too much.
