After Shen Xiangzhi took the cloth bag, he took out another small bag from it.
It is placed so tightly, it must be something very important, An Hongdou thought.
He took out a handful of banknotes from his small bag and handed them over. "Since we are building the house, it's not good for you to pay for it. Take these back and use them as you wish."
In fact, if he hadn't had an injury on his leg, he should have been the one to build the house.
But when he talked about the injury on his leg, it seemed like it was all caused by An Hongdou.
Shen Xiangzhi never thought that he would encounter such a thing.
He was a grown man, but he was pinned down by a woman. After the incident, he not only had to be obedient, but also had to take responsibility.
Who makes them victims just like me?
It was all that damn Zhao Youliang's fault. Chen Xiangzhi felt that the feud had gotten bigger.
An Hongdou looked down and saw that the money in Shen Xiangzhi's hand was all ten-yuan notes.
She took it and counted it. There were 10 in total.
100 yuan is a huge sum of money.
An Hongdou looked at him in surprise, "I didn't realize you were so rich!"
Shen Xiangzhi raised his eyebrows, "Do I look more like a pauper?"
It shouldn’t be that serious, right?
Shen Xiangzhi had always known that he was good-looking, and he could tell just from the way those women looked at him.
Moreover, his temperament is of the cold type. He wears ordinary clothes like others, but when he wears them, he inexplicably carries a sense of nobility.
An Hongdou didn't answer the question. Instead, she put the money into her pocket with a smile on her face, leaned forward slightly to close the distance between the two of them, and whispered, "Originally, I was planning to go to the mountains to find some things to exchange for money, but with the money you gave me, I don't have to worry."
Chen Xiangzhi, however, looked cautious, stretched out his hand to hold her wrist, and warned, "Don't do anything reckless, there are many dangers in the mountains. Even if you are strong and not afraid of wild boars, what if you encounter wolves and tigers?"
"Are there tigers in this mountain?" An Hongdou's eyes lit up instantly.
Shen Xiangzhi looked at her expression and his eyes widened in shock.
"An Hongdou, you... don't tell me that you even dare to attack a tiger. Do you want to live?"
From ancient times to the present, tigers have always been extremely ferocious prey. If a tiger really came down the mountain, half of the people in the village might not be able to match it. But this woman... this woman actually dared to target a tiger!
"You haven't told me yet, are there really tigers in the mountains?" An Hongdou wondered, this shouldn't be possible.
The original owner grew up in the village and had never heard of tigers in the mountains. Shen Xiangzhi had only been in the village for half a month, so how did he know about it?
"How would I know if there are tigers? I didn't grow up here!" Shen Xiangzhi's tone was a bit angry.
He said there was a tiger in the mountains just to scare An Hongdou so that she wouldn't rely on her own strength and act recklessly. "I don't know if there are tigers, but there are definitely wolves in the mountains. An Hongdou, don't go into the mountains recklessly just because you are strong. Although you killed a wild boar yesterday, it might just be luck. If you really encounter a mad animal in the mountains, you might not be able to save your life."
Shen Xiangzhi said it again, fearing that An Hongdou would not obey.
After all, although her eyes are small, they keep rolling around, and you can tell at a glance that she is not a peaceful person.
"I know, I know. I'll just pick some wild fruits and find a pheasant outside. I'm not a fool." An Hongdou responded casually.
In fact, her wood-based ability can control a lot of force. You can see that when she caught those goats, she didn't even use her hands. She just tied them up with vines.
An Hongdou is confident that even if she really encounters a tiger and cannot defeat it with her fists, she still has her supernatural powers to use.
So, what is there to be afraid of!
"Okay, now that you've finished eating, I'll go back first. Just leave this bowl here and you can get it next time I come over." An Hongdou said as she looked at the half bowl of mutton that was left.
Shen Xiangzhi nodded, the scent of the sheep in his mouth had not yet faded, leaving him with a lingering aftertaste, but he still said, “Actually, there is food to eat at the educated youth center, so you don’t have to deliberately come and bring me food.”
Apart from that one encounter, the two of them weren't very familiar with each other.
Although the marriage certificate was issued, Shen Xiangzhi didn't think he would have any special feelings for An Hongdou.
This does not mean that he is a heartless man. After all, there is no love between the two of them.
"Have you been lying in bed alone these two days?" An Hongdou suddenly spoke, but what he said was a world away from what he wanted to say.
"Not really. In the morning and afternoon when it's not too hot, they will help me go out and sit for a while." Shen Xiangzhi answered blankly.
"You just injured your knee, not both of your legs. I'll get you a crutch when I have time, and you can walk around nearby to relieve your boredom." An Hongdou thought that if she had to lie still like this every day, she would probably go crazy.
Of course, she was so nice to Shen Xiangzhi, and she definitely didn't have any intentions towards him.
An Hongdou felt that, after all, she had just received a huge sum of money from others, so it was only right for her to be nice to them.
In fact, if Shen Xiangzhi was also interested in her, she wouldn't mind being with him.
After all, this guy completely meets her aesthetic standards, and he has a good temper too. She has never been in love in her past life or this life, so it is normal for her to feel a little moved.
But when An Hongdou looked down at her body, she immediately gave up the idea.
With her appearance, there was no way Shen Xiangzhi would be attracted to her.
Otherwise, she would doubt whether there was something wrong with his aesthetic taste!
"Then... then thank you." Shen Xiangzhi was trying not to bother others the previous second, but the next second he was forced to accept others' things, and he was slapped in the face.
There's no other way. He's really exhausted from lying like this every day.
With a cane, at least I don't need help when going to the toilet, and I don't have to listen to those female educated youth complaining in front of me every day. I can't hide even if I want to.
"You're welcome." An Hongdou grinned. "I'm leaving first. I brought back some chestnuts yesterday. I'll go back and think about how to eat them, and then I'll bring them to you. If you need anything, you can tell me."
Shen Xiangzhi didn't say that if possible, he really wanted this book.
But he knew that An Hongdou herself could not even read, let alone have something as valuable as a book.
When An Hongdou went out, the other educated youth had already dispersed, and only Zhang Jianjun was still standing outside.
