Chapter 83 Giving You Pocket Money
The Lu family's mother, son, mother and daughter were sitting in the carriage, and Qin Sheng was riding a horse to escort them.
The weather outside is very cold, but fortunately the wind is not strong today, otherwise people outside would suffer.
Lu Mingzhi lifted the curtain of the carriage, leaned over and asked Qin Sheng, "Brother-in-law, it's so cold outside, do you want to get in the carriage?" Their carriage was new, and although his brother-in-law had long arms and legs, he would be willing to make some sacrifices if he really wanted to get in.
"It's not cold." Qin Sheng rode his horse close to the carriage. He paused and said, "I won't go up."
Jiang sighed, "Young man, you have a lot of firepower."
Lu Mingzhi quickly replied to his mother, "Mom, that's not necessarily true." He was also a young man, but he was very afraid of the cold and felt that he lacked energy.
Jiang glanced at him and said, "You are weak, so your firepower is not strong."
Huh? Lv Mingzhi was so shocked by his mother's words that his face was covered in circles.
Lu Songli laughed muffledly.
After returning to the Lu family, Jiang considerately took her youngest son away to give her daughter and future son-in-law some time to spend together.
"It's cold outside, so go inside as soon as you finish talking." Jiang reminded before leaving.
It was indeed quite cold outside, and Lu Songli didn't plan to stay any longer. She saw that the place where he was standing was exactly the wind outlet, and the wind blowing towards her was completely blocked by his wide black fox cloak.
Lu Songli took his hand and led him to the sheltered area at the gate.
His hand was suddenly held, and Qin Sheng tried to grab it with his backhand. Halfway through the action, he remembered that the person holding his hand was her. In the end, he could only harden his heart and hold her little hand with his backhand.
Lu Songli looked up at him in surprise. Qin Sheng's ears turned red and his eyes looked upwards, not looking at her, but he still didn't let go of her hand.
Lu Songli chuckled, this guy has made great progress.
She simply used her other hand to take out a purse from her bosom and handed it to him, "A Sheng, this is for you."
Qin Sheng's gaze finally dropped from above, "What's in it?"
He held his breath slightly, his ears reddening, a hint of shyness in his eyes. Could it be a handkerchief or a jade pendant in the purse? Liu Erxi and Chen Jinshui had heard that girls who liked them would secretly give them handkerchiefs or jade pendants as tokens of love. Was she like that too?
"Go on." Lu Songli urged, saying that her hands were so cold as they were exposed.
Qin Sheng quickly stretched out his hands.
Seeing him stretch out his hands to take it, Lu Songli wondered, does her purse look that heavy? Although her face was full of question marks, she still put the purse into his hands.
When the light purse fell into his hands, he was filled with questions. What was in this purse? Why was it so light? It felt empty.
"What's in the purse?" He couldn't help but ask. He pinched it and felt a piece of paper. Could it be another land deed? He had just found someone to take care of the land deed she gave him last time, so why was she here again?
"You can open it and take a look."
Qin Sheng thought about it but still felt uneasy, so he opened it as he was told. When he saw that there was a silver note worth one thousand taels inside, he looked at Lu Songli in confusion.
"This is your pocket money."
Qin Sheng's eyes widened. No, no, no. Aren't ordinary people usually the husbands paying their wives? Why is it his turn? She's the one paying? Forget about the land deed last time. This time, she's just giving him a banknote. No, no, no.
Moreover, he is rich! He has many treasures!
"Don't be so quick to refuse. Last time you told me that the Zhao family was looking for painkillers, and I got some to sell to them."
Qin Sheng was anxious when he heard this. How could he sell such a good medicine to the Zhao family? What if the Zhao family took it apart and cracked the prescription?
Lu Songli signaled him to be patient, "Don't worry, I also put a lot of useless herbs in it, they can't tell the difference."
"I sold that medicine to them several times and got 15,000 taels from the Zhao family." Lu Songli leaned close to him and spoke in a low voice for the last few words.
Qin Sheng's eyes widened slightly. Did he earn so much? It had only been a short time.
Although he made a lot of money, Qin Sheng still felt it was not worth it. It was a waste to use such good medicine on Zhao Bin. Moreover, if he did not use the medicine, it would just make him suffer more.
Qin Sheng thought about it and told her his thoughts.
Lu Songli chuckled at this and lowered her voice to share the plan she had already implemented. So, "Don't worry, he may have suffered less physical pain, but he's suffered a lot mentally."
After hearing this, Qin Sheng was a little dazed. Was he superficial? Was he worried that she would show mercy to others? If Zhao Bin knew that the money she used to bribe the maid was the same money he paid for the anesthetic, he would probably vomit three liters of blood.
If Lu Songli knew what he was thinking, she would definitely tell him seriously that she was taking from the "people" and giving back to the "people". She made so much money from Zhao Bin, and there was nothing wrong with spending some of it on him!
"Well, don't you think I'm being a little cruel?" Lu Songli asked shyly, "Give me a negative answer quickly! Otherwise, if these three views don't match, it will be difficult to deal with."
Qin Sheng said seriously, "No." He could clearly distinguish between friend and foe. Besides, it wasn't the first day he knew her.
Lu Songli laughed, "This is all thanks to the information you provided, and this is all the money we earned from Zhao Bin. It's money we earned together, so of course we have to spend it together. So, you decide whether I should take it or not."
Qin Sheng hesitated. He initially thought he shouldn't take it. It was her ability to use this information to make money. But she said that they would earn and spend the money together...
Lu Songli closed his hand, "There's no need for us to be so distant, dear——"
Wait, he hasn't thought it through yet. This isn't a question of being obedient or not...
"Hiss, I'm so cold, I'll go in first. You should go home early too." Lu Songli's words blocked his refusal.
Forget it, then he should accept it first, don't let her get frozen. Just think of her as leaving it with him first, and when they get married, he...
On the way back, Qin Sheng was riding his horse slowly and happened to hear the two sisters-in-law talking while carrying baskets.
With his sharp ears and eyes, he immediately caught what they said.
"Sister, don't be silly. That man obviously doesn't want to spend money on you, so he's trying to coax you with words. What's the use of sweet words? You haven't gained anything. Trust me, I've been through this before. Listen to my advice: a man willing to spend money on you doesn't necessarily love you, but a man unwilling to spend money on you definitely doesn't love you. This man's words are deceiving. Let's just look at the facts and don't believe his nonsense!"
The two sides quickly passed each other. Qin Sheng sat on the horse, chewing over the words of the elder sister, 'Those who spend money on you don't necessarily love you, and those who don't spend money on you definitely don't love you'. The corners of his mouth curled up unconsciously. Well, what the elder sister said seemed to make sense.
Qin Sheng touched the purse in her arms. She was willing to spend money on him, and she gave him a thousand taels at once. The key point was that she didn't have much money.
The naive young man drank the big bowl of poisonous chicken soup in gulps, then squeezed the horse's belly. The horse sensed his emotions and ran away.
