When Xiao Xiao spoke, the audience was completely silent.
Everyone felt that these words didn't sound like something a country bumpkin would say.
Some are even speculating that Mo Xiaoli's aunt is likely to be proven wrong this time.
As expected, Mo Xiaoli took the paper package from Xiao Xiao's hand.
He opened it in front of everyone, revealing two thick stacks of ten-yuan bills inside.
Everything is brand new.
Everyone looked on in disbelief; how could a country bumpkin give so much money as a gift to his nephew?
Mo Xiaoli's aunt, Mo Yaru, smacked her lips and said something very sharp and sarcastic:
"Xiaoli, is this all fake?"
Some people, in order to save face, have real money on two sides and fake money in the middle.
You'd better look carefully.
Mo Xiaoli bit her lip, flipped the middle open, and let the people in front of her see it clearly.
Some people even reached out and touched it.
Those who have seen it say, "It's real, it's real money, and it's all brand new."
Mo Yaru was still not satisfied: "It looks like a lot, but we don't know how much there is?"
Mo Xiaoli asked Xiaoxiao with a smile, "Auntie, how much is the gift money here?"
Xiao Xiao still had a smile on her face: "It's here."
If Aunt Xiaoli doesn't believe me, she can count them in front of everyone.
Mo Yaru's face flushed red, but she still stubbornly said:
"You peasants actually managed to come up with so much money."
I wonder if this money came from a legitimate source?
Don't do anything illegal just to save face.
That could land you in jail.
Her small face immediately turned cold, and her eyes were also icy.
"Aunt Xiaoli has to provide evidence when she speaks."
In public, you can't just say whatever you want and it doesn't mean it's true.
We are country bumpkins.
Can't peasants make money?
Or does it mean that peasants are inferior to others?
I thought you, a high-class city dweller, were so noble.
If it weren't for us peasants, what would you eat and drink?
They eat the grains and vegetables grown by us peasants, yet they look down on us peasants.
Aunt Xiaoli is really capable!
She was clearly implying that Mo Yaru was shameless.
Those who had previously looked down on them fell silent.
This woman is incredibly eloquent, and what she says makes perfect sense.
It left everyone speechless.
Mo Yaru's face turned pale and then red.
She stammered, "I, I, I didn't say anything."
"I just suspect that the money you're getting is ill-gotten."
Xiao stared at her coldly: "Whether my money came from legitimate sources or not, you can check."
I didn't stop you from checking.
Besides, I dare to openly display this money in front of you.
Are you still afraid?
"Are you just carefree, or am I stupid?"
Mo Yaru tried to argue, but the old man who had been silent all along slammed his cane on his hand.
He shouted sternly, "Enough! Shut up!"
Don't you even know what day it is today? You're just spouting nonsense here.
Second brother, control your wife! You've really embarrassed yourself!
The one called "Second Brother" glared at Mo Yaru and said in an unfriendly tone:
"What are you still standing there for? Come here right now."
Mo Yaru walked up to him, tossed her hair, and smiled softly:
"Ping An's aunt, you have such a good way of speaking, I wonder what you do in the countryside?"
Before Xiaoxiao could speak, Yuan Ping'an interrupted:
"My aunt used to be a teacher in the village."
They specifically taught the village children to read and write.
Mo Yaru's eyes darted around: "You mean she isn't anymore?"
Were you fired?
Yuan Ping'an rolled his eyes at her: "My aunt said that the new generation surpasses the old."
We must give opportunities to young people.
Mo Yaru finally shut her mouth and stopped talking.
It was Liang Lao Er who spoke up: "Ping An's aunt, I heard that you taught Ping An all his martial arts."
I never imagined you could be both scholarly and martial; you truly are a woman who rivals any man.
"You must be the best in your village."
He meant to say that you must be the most formidable shrew in your village.
But given his status and position, he couldn't possibly say such a thing.
He was certain that the country woman wouldn't understand the hidden meaning in his words.
Xiao Xiao still had a smiling face. She felt like she had smiled a lot today, and her face was a little stiff.
"You must be Uncle Liang's second brother."
You don't know, we live deep in the mountains and forests.
Besides farming, the villagers make a living by hunting.
Half of the villagers know martial arts.
I only taught Ping An a little bit of martial arts; the rest was taught to him by his uncle.
Upon hearing this, everyone turned their attention to the man standing to the side, who was clenching his fists and staring with wide eyes.
This man is really muscular.
And those two scars on his face, though faint, are still visible.
It must have been injured while hunting, right?
Liang Lao Er's lips twitched.
He didn't want to ask anymore; asking any more would only make him look foolish.
He thought the woman wouldn't understand him, but to his surprise, she not only understood him but also gave him answers that left him speechless.
Xiao Xiao looked at him and asked, "Second Uncle Liang, is there anything else you want to ask?"
I will speak frankly and openly here, without holding anything back.
Liang Lao Er's face was flushed red from the fever, and he wished he could disappear into a crack in the ground.
The old man next to him glared at him fiercely but didn't say a word.
Mo Xiaoli was overjoyed; she liked this aunt.
She looks gentle and pretty, but I never expected her to be so shrewd when it comes to contradicting herself.
Her aunt is a person who flatters the powerful and belittles the weak; she is particularly fond of the rich and disdains the poor.
If it weren't for her parents constantly trying to persuade her, she would have already argued with them, given her temper.
There's no need for her to be so presumptuous today.
She happily stepped forward, picked up a cup of tea, and called out:
"Auntie, have some tea."
Xiao Xiao took the tea, took a sip, and then took out a red envelope from her pocket and handed it to her.
Mo Xiaoli was taken aback. Hadn't she already given it to him? Why was she giving it to him again now?
Xiao Xiao seemed to understand her thoughts.
"What I gave you just now was a gift of money; this is a change of address fee."
Mo Xiaoli was dumbfounded. There was even a change-of-address fee?
Yuan Pingan tugged at her: "Hurry up and thank your aunt."
Mo Xiaoli happily thanked Xiaoxiao, then offered tea to Yuan Shitou: "Uncle, have some tea."
To be honest, she was a little afraid of her stern-faced uncle.
She saw it very clearly just now.
When her aunt talked about her uncle's wife, the uncle's eyes looked like he wanted to eat her alive.
He would have definitely gotten angry if his aunt hadn't patted him.
Yuan Shitou gave her a smile, picked up the tea, and drank it.
He also took out a red envelope from his pocket and gave it to her.
Mo Xiaoli took the red envelope and felt that it was quite thick inside.
In front of everyone, I opened the red envelope.
Inside was another stack of ten-yuan bills.
She couldn't help but look at Xiaoxiao.
Xiao Xiao smiled and said, "This is the change of address fee, there is 1200 in it."
Mo Xiaoli happily pocketed the money.
"Since my uncle says it's a change of address fee, then I'll accept it."
