The Village Girl Who Jinxes Her Husband Is Filthy Rich Chapter 176 - Lin Mingqing

Chapter 176: Lin Mingqing

Lin Yuelan didn’t want to harm anyone, but it didn’t mean that she wouldn’t defend herself. She just wanted to be an ordinary farmer.

So, if one day Jiang Zhennan suddenly decided to go on a power trip and manipulate her, then she’d have no choice but to kill him. Therefore, this was a test Lin Yuelan set up to probe Jiang Zhennan. She wanted to see if the man would try to steal her powers or not. If he had such thoughts, she would have to silence him to prevent future trouble. If he didn’t have such thoughts, she wouldn’t mind having the soldiers around her hut.

Jiang Zhennan was a smart person. When he thought about it, he instantly understood what Lin Yuelan meant. His expression under the mask was hurt.

The fact that Lin Yuelan didn’t believe in his character and came up with this test made him feel sad. Of course, his expression was shielded behind the silver mask. Lin Yuelan couldn’t see it. She merely looked into his eyes. For some reason, she antic.i.p.ated his answer.

Jiang Zhennan said very seriously, “Miss Yue ‘Er, good people will have good karma!”

Lin Yuelan was stunned.

Then, she laughed. She was very satisfied with this answer.

Indeed, good people would have good karma. Once the time came, the good people would be rewarded.

‘Lin Mingqing is a good person but has suffered so much. Even heavens pity him and give him a miracle pill. I wonder if people will believe this explanation.’ Lin Yuelan thought to herself.

The two didn’t mention this matter anymore. They walked back home.

Halfway there, Lin Yuelan suddenly remembered their purpose of going to Lin Yiwei’s house and immediately shouted, “masked uncle, I actually forgot to tell Grandpa village chief about the land reclamation.”

However, considering Lin Yiwei was taking care of Lin Mingqing, Lin Yuelan thought about it and said, “forget it. I’ll find Grandpa Village Chief another day!”

On the way home, they pa.s.sed by a small ditch. There was a school of small fish the size of tadpoles in the small ditch. Jiang Zhennan looked at them for a while, and then he remembered something.

He opened his mouth a few times, and in the end, he said, “Miss Yue ‘Er, Guo Bing and the others said that they want to have you prepare a fish dish for them. Is that okay?” In fact, he wanted to try her cooking too. However, for the sake of his face, he had to use Guo Bing’s name.

Lin Yuelan immediately replied, “no problem. Let’s go, masked uncle, let’s catch some fish. Without fish, how are we going to cook fish?” As she spoke, she reached out to hold Jiang Zhennan’s hand out of habit.

Jiang Zhennan looked at his hand that was being held and felt really helpless. ‘Miss Yue ‘Er doesn’t have the slightest idea of what’s going on. I really didn’t know what to do.’ However, for Lin Yuelan’s sake, he shook her hand and changed the subject, “miss Yue ‘er, there’s no need for us to go to the river to catch fish. Guo Bing and the others were drooling when they heard Little Twelve describe your cooking. They were too shy to ask you to cook for them, so they requested me to approach you instead. They’re probably catching the fish in the river now.” After all, they were penniless leechers at her house. Their food, clothing, and accommodation were arranged by Lin Yuelan. She had provided them with so much that they felt ashamed, demanding her to cook them specific dishes.

Lin Yuelan burst into laughter and said, “masked uncle, they feel too shy to ask me, but aren’t you shy too?”

Jiang Zhennan was stunned. ‘That’s right. Why didn’t I feel shy asking Miss Yue ‘Er to do this for us? I am also freeloading at Miss Yue ‘Er’s house too. So why wouldn’t I mind approaching Miss Yue ‘Er with this request?’

Jiang Zhennan asked himself these questions, but he did not seem to find any relevant answers.

Seeing how Jiang Zhennan had lowered his head to try to figure out the answer, Lin Yuelan found it even funnier. “Haha, masked uncle, you look so cute like this!”

A burly man was huddled in a corner and thinking hard because of a simple question. He reminded her of a primary school student who was ordered to stand at the corner and think about the solution to the homework.

Jiang Zhennan’s face under the silver mask turned red.

He was a burly man, but he was called “cute”. This made him feel a little embarra.s.sed.

Lin Yuelan laughed even louder, “haha… Masked uncle, I can’t help it. You are too cute. My stomach hurts…”

Jiang Zhennan was a little confused. He really didn’t know what was so funny about this.

After laughing for a while, Lin Yuelan was a bit confused too. She had seen funnier things than this, and she never laughed this hard. So why was she so amused by Jiang Zhennan’s reaction?

She couldn’t figure it out, but she didn’t waste her time trying to.

She said to Jiang Zhennan, “masked uncle, just help me relay this message to them. I can cook anything they want, but the caveat is that they have to work hard for me!” After all, she wouldn’t be cooking for free.
