Chapter 72: Teachable
The sun went from being high overhead to slowly setting in the west.
The bird that was scared away was put on the shelf again.
Chu Lange dropped the shovel and gasped.
"Yuan Ye, carry me out. I'm tired today. Let's come back to dig another day."
"yes."
Yuan Ye nodded slightly.
He wanted to remind the princess that she was a noble lady and didn't need to do such physical work.
But seeing how happy she has been these past few days, I couldn't bring myself to say it.
Although the princess was pampered in the past, because of her status, no one was truly her friend. In addition, the words of comfort from Aunt Mei, whom the princess trusted, made her temper more and more arrogant.
But it’s not like now. The princess seems to have the energy that she should have at her age.
After finding a place to stay, Chu Lange looked at the gold that he and Yuan Ye had dug out today, his eyes filled with a sense of accomplishment.
After carefully admiring it, she pointed at the gold and said, "Jiang Youning! Look, this is the kingdom that I built for you!"
"I see, I see! You've worked hard, Lang Gege. How about I give you some of this gold?"
Jiang Youning immediately nodded like a chicken pecking at rice.
[Oh my god, what kind of overbearing princess is this? She is ten blocks away from those overbearing bosses, okay? ]
【I love to hear this!!!】
【Great! 】
The domineering Princess Chu Langge raised her head proudly and refused: "My words are as good as gold. If I say no, then I don't want it! I'm tired now and want to go back home. Don't touch this yard. I'll come back to dig it tomorrow!"
“…”
Jiang Youning watched Chu Lange disappear quickly in Yuan Ye's arms, and he didn't look away for a long time.
[This is my friend! My most dearest friend who is at the top of my heart! If anyone tries to steal my friend from me in the future, I will be angry with him!!!]
Not far away, Jiang Wanrong was speechless watching this scene.
very good.
My sister has a really big heart.
~~~
That afternoon, Jiang Youning, who felt that he had good luck today, took a bath and burned incense without hesitation to draw another round of prizes.
After half an hour of cursing and talking, a burst of laughter broke through the room.
This time, even Jiang Wanrong in the next yard was frightened by the sound and almost fell off the stool.
Jiang Wanrong had never felt so strongly as she did now. The baby chair made by her sister was tailor-made for her and it suited her perfectly.
Jiang Youning looked at what he had taken out, his smiling face as bright as a chrysanthemum.
After drawing prizes for so long, she finally won the one she liked when her luck value reached 361!
"Mobile phone! The little fairy who was forced to quit the Internet finally got a mobile phone!!!"
"Mua! My dear Ji, do you know how much I missed you during these days when I was away from you? I finally got you!!!"
Jiang Youning took the solar-powered foldable phone and kissed it twice, looking like a pervert.
After she had laughed enough, she turned on her phone.
A few minutes later, the quacking little man performed a smile-vanishing trick and his mood was no longer so good.
"Ah! You little piece of shit! You can charge your phone with solar energy, why can't you be a little more outrageous and just use the internet!!!"
"A cell phone without internet access may look good, but it's no more useful than a brick!"
Unhappy Jiang Youning lay down with no hope in life. She browsed the system mall for a long time. When she was about to go to sleep, she suddenly paused.
The lottery system has been updated!
Nothing else changed, but the only thing as golden as the phone became an unlimited internet card.
And the 361 points of luck that she had worked so hard to accumulate...were reset to zero!
Hey guys, what's not to understand?
Isn't this the same routine as the one she used in that crappy game where she draws crystals every time her luck is full? It's very similar to the shamelessness!!!
"Swindler! As expected of a scammer, he was waiting for me here. Is this a scam?"
"Hey, 110, I feel like I've fallen into a trap! Police officer, can you help me?!"
"You damn system! Just wait, even if I take all those points with me into the coffin, I will never spend money to draw a prize again!"
…
After being irritable for a while, Jiang Youning took a few selfies that he was quite satisfied with before he finally calmed himself down and fell asleep.
~~~
Two days later, all the gold was mined.
A few people who were dazzled by the wealth gathered together to count the money and found it was exactly twelve thousand taels!
Jiang Youning sat in the yard, finally smiling happily.
[Goose, goose, Buddha, you are so kind. You are the only one who is honest and never deceives me. ]
[I spent all my money to be a good person, and then I got more than what I paid back! ]
[Isn't this reward better than a lottery? How about giving these gold ingots away to do some good deeds? ]
[Forget it, forget it. Too much can’t be chewed. Let’s do it next time. ]
Jiang Wanrong stopped talking when she was about to say a reminder.
Fortunately, my sister is not that stupid and she doesn’t really plan to give away all the gold and wait for rewards.
After all, good things are good things, but good things can't come to the same person every day.
The hard-working partners didn't want money, but they couldn't let their work be in vain, so the wealthy Mrs. Jiang took everyone shopping and everyone could choose whatever they liked.
As for little Goku.
The little brat didn't have much of a hobby other than eating, and she didn't miss him on a daily basis.
So, after much thought, Jiang Youning asked a craftsman to make him a wooden fish as big as a basin, made of pure gold!
When they said goodbye that day, Chu Lange patted Jiang Youning's shoulder heavily.
She said: "Jiang Youning, I have to thank you, you made me understand the value of a strong wallet!"
Jiang Youning didn't feel anything at the time. Instead, he said with a look of satisfaction: "Ruzi is teachable. You should also work hard."
"Yes! I will try my best!"
Chu Lange strode back.
~~~
Not two days later.
Something big happened in the palace.
When the ministers went to court in the morning, everything was fine.
But when they came out again, they were all confused.
How come such a short time has passed, the palace no longer has any familiar feeling?
Not far away, palace maids and eunuchs were busy working. Except for a small path about one meter wide that led along the Hall of Supreme Harmony to the outside of the palace, all the bricks had been pried away, and many places... were either piles of earth or pits.
"What the hell is going on here? Is there a thief in the palace?"
"Look, those figures are the palace maids and eunuchs. Did something big happen in the palace?"
"Let's ask His Majesty first."
…
then.
Emperor Wenzong of Chu, who had just finished court and had not yet had time to leave the Hall of Supreme Harmony, was forced to return in a rage.
"Go! Find out for me who is so bold as to dig up my palace!!!"
