76. Chapter 76: One Life in Exchange for a Lifetime of Care



When the door was opened, Xu Aiguo heard someone get up and look. After seeing that it was Xu Xiangbei, there was no change in his eyes, as if he was used to it.

He knew his youngest son's character, and he seemed to be obsessed with making money and doing business.

Although he had a stomachache tonight and did not go for the time being, he knew that his youngest son would definitely go once the stomachache was gone.

So he wasn't surprised to see his youngest son.

But when he saw the little girl following his youngest son, his eyes were full of shock, especially after he realized that the little girl was going to the county town with them to do that dangerous thing, he immediately picked up the broom beside him and was about to hit him.

"No, no, Dad, don't hit me. It's the middle of the night. If you hit me and I scream, the neighbors will know about it." Xu Xiangbei grabbed the broom that his old father was waving at him.

"Dad, don't hit my brother. It was me who asked him to take me there. I won't do that again in the future." Xu Jinning also hurriedly explained.

In fact, she was not curious about speculative trading and did not like taking risks. She went there tonight in the hope of helping Xu Xiangbei save his life and not fall into Cui Zhiqiang's trap.

Otherwise, why wouldn't she just choose to sleep? Why would she go to the county town to get some fresh air in the middle of the night?

But it was indeed she who asked Xu Xiangbei to take him there.

Xu Aiguo was so angry that his teeth itched. "Xu Xiangbei, do you know what the consequences will be if you are caught? It's ok for you to take the risk yourself, but you even brought your sister with you. I really..."

Xu Aiguo wanted to beat Xu Xiangbei, but what Xu Xiangbei said made sense.

"Ningning, don't say good things for your brother, he just deserves to be punished." In Xu Aiguo's heart, Xu Jinning was very well-behaved and sensible. How could he go to the county town in the middle of the night to participate in such a dangerous thing? It must be Xu Xiangbei who provoked him.

It's all Xu Xiangbei's fault! Xu Xiangbei felt inexplicably wronged. Why did he feel that after his younger sister came back, his father didn't love his younger son anymore, but loved his younger daughter instead?

But he also knew that it was indeed dangerous to take Xu Jinning there tonight.

"I understand. Before the storm has passed and the situation is clear, I will not go there again, and I will definitely not take Ningning there again. Really, I swear!"

Xu Aiguo looked at Xu Xiangbei steadily, and finally snorted coldly and loosened his hand that was holding the broom.

Xu Xiangbei breathed a sigh of relief and quickly put the broom aside, far away.

"Okay, Ningning, go to bed early." After giving instructions to his little girl, Xu Aiguo went back to his room. As for Xu Xiangbei, he just ignored him.

"I know, Dad." Xu Jinning responded obediently.

"Come on, little sister, let's go back to your room."

Xu Jinning was pulled by Xu Xiangbei into her room, and they both sat on the edge of the bed.

Then Xu Xiangbei opened the bag, revealing a bag full of watches.

He counted them and found there were fifty of them.

"50 watches, each watch costs about 100 yuan, this is several thousand yuan, I'm rich."

In the countryside, most people can only save a dozen or several dozen yuan throughout the year. These several thousand yuan are naturally a huge fortune.

Xu Xiangbei touched the pile of watches, his eyes shining.

He looked up at the little girl and found that her eyes were calm, as calm as the watch in front of him, and just like the scenery that could be seen everywhere.

He quickly retracted his gaze and sighed in his heart: The little girl is really good. If it were someone else, who knows how greedy their eyes would be.

The little girl's eyes were so calm, as if the watch in front of her was very ordinary.

Xu Jinning really didn't take the 50 watches in front of him seriously.

There is no way, because she has seen too many jewelry, accessories, and jewels in modern times, and their values ​​are much greater than these 50 watches.

So she was not greedy at all, even though she had traveled through time to this difficult era.

But her original intention, nature and insights remain unchanged.

"Your wrist is too thin. You have to eat more in the future. As a girl, you should have more meat so that it's easier to find a man." Holding Xu Jinning's wrist, which was so thin that only bones were left, Xu Xiangbei felt indescribable pain in his heart.

It's very strange. When the little girl came to this family before, she was also skinny, but he just couldn't pay attention to her at that time.

But now, it seems to have changed.

It seemed...it started when he could hear the little girl's inner thoughts.

From then on, he really started to pay attention to this little sister and realized her existence in the family.

I also began to care for her a little bit.

My little sister is really too thin.

Xu Xiangbei knew that nowadays people look for wives with big breasts, thick buttocks, and a plump and round body, so that they can give birth easily and look healthy.

But my little sister now...

I guess no one would be interested if I went to propose marriage.

This work is organized and uploaded by Liujiu Book Bar~~

And he's so dark, and to be honest, he does look a bit ugly.

Xu Xiangbei was a little worried that it would be difficult for his younger sister to get married in the future.

Forget it, if my younger sister can’t get married, then he will try his best to support her for the rest of her life.

After all, his life was saved by my younger sister.

One life in exchange for a lifetime of care, no problem!

Xu Jinning had no idea what Xu Xiangbei was thinking. She just watched Xu Xiangbei put the watch on her.

"Okay, I'll give you this watch later."

"How is it? Do you like it?" Xu Xiangbei asked cautiously.

Xu Jinning stared blankly at his watch. Under the kerosene lamp, the watch dial shone with a metallic luster.

Hearing Xu Xiangbei's question, she immediately looked up and said, "I like it."

Of course she likes it.

It seemed that after coming into this world and this family, she received more and more gifts.

Malted milk from my dad, clothes made by my mom, milk and chicken legs from my eldest brother, vanishing cream from my eldest sister, and now the watch given by my youngest brother.

Maybe, this is what family is.

This watch is certainly not as good as the ones she wears in modern times. The dial is inlaid with diamonds and looks very luxurious.

But modern ones are just accessories to her.

But the one on her wrist now is different. It is a gift, a gift from the young man, and he put it on her personally.

The meaning is different.

"And these, I'll give them to my parents, older brother, and older sister tomorrow." Xu Xiangbei also kept a few watches to give to his family, and of course his own.

Xu Xiangbei plans to find time to sell the remaining 44 watches later.

"Little girl, I will sell the remaining watches, and we will split the money in half." Xu Xiangbei said.

Xu Jinning heard this and shook his head, "I don't want it. I just want this watch."
