Chapter 305: Chapter 305: Pretty and Cute Young Lady Sister

After everyone had left, Chiang Songhai and Ge Dejun were sitting together in the main room, smoking. Xu Linjiang had gone to return the tables and chairs to Aunt Juan’s house, Liu Pei and Ge Xiaotong were helping Ge Liutao wash the dishes, while Chiang Xiao sidled up to Meng Xinian and asked in a low voice, "What did my grandpa put in the red envelope he gave you?"

Don’t think she couldn’t tell—the red envelope was thick. Chiang Songhai didn’t have that much money, so it must have contained something else.

Meng Xinian reached out and pinched her nose.

"What ’my grandpa’? It’s ’our grandpa’!"

Chiang Xiao swatted his hand away, "Meng Xinian, what is your deal, really? Keeping a young wife for fun? At your age, you should be seriously courting that pretty and cute young lady!"

Pretty and cute young lady?

Meng Xinian thought her way of speaking was funny. He couldn’t help but tease her, "What’s so fun about courting someone?"

"How is it not fun? A young lady can be all lovey-dovey with you, shy and seemingly annoyed under the moon and flowers, letting you hold her little hand, kiss her little mouth, with her face all blushing and heart pounding..."

"Ouch! Why did you hit me!"

Chiang Xiao covered her head and glared at him.

Meng Xinian kept a straight face, his handsome features were so impeccable that they seemed sculpted, not an ounce of excess flesh, and although his skin wasn’t very white, it glowed with a healthy sheen, giving off a very masculine vibe.

"How are you like a young girl at all? Aren’t you ashamed to say such things? You’re not allowed to speak recklessly in the future."

Talking about holding hands and kissing, wasn’t she afraid that people would think she was a hooligan?

How did a girl, who grew up in a small village, learn to say such things?

Chiang Xiao rubbed the top of her head where he had knocked it quite forcefully just now.

But it also reminded her.

Now really wasn’t the time for speaking so freely.

She had learned these words from her roommates in the past, but oddly enough, she didn’t use to say such things back then. She hadn’t expected that now, in front of Meng Xinian, she would be so fearless and outspoken.

While rubbing her head, she glanced at him with a tilted eye. This little gesture softened Meng Xinian’s stern expression a bit. He reached out and rubbed her head as well, his voice tinged with laughter, "Have you remembered?"

"I remember; I remember." Chiang Xiao was not really a child. She knew which words to listen to and which could be said in a fit of pique.

It wasn’t just the two of them here, and those words should not have been said in the first place.

Er, would it be alright to say those words if it were just the two of them?

Chiang Xiao deliberately ignored this question.

Meng Xinian took two red envelopes out of his pocket and handed them to her, "Open them and see for yourself, I don’t know what’s inside either."

Chiang Xiao didn’t stand on ceremony. The two red envelopes—one from Chiang Songhai and the other from Ge Liutao—were both plump, though one was not as thick as the other, but it still felt substantial, surely containing something.

"Hand." Chiang Xiao gestured for him to stretch out his hand, and she dumped the contents of the envelopes into his palm. Both of them were shocked by what fell out of the envelopes.

Chiang Xiao had always thought her family couldn’t be poorer, and clearly, Meng Xinian had the same impression.

Yet now, they had managed to dump out four Silver Dollars and one Gold Jade Men’s Ring from the red envelopes!

All four Silver Dollars were large ones, the real deal. Chiang Xiao knew that these Silver Dollars were highly valued by collectors in later times and were also valuable in the present.

The Gold Jade Men’s Ring was very luxurious with a broad band set with an oval jade stone, heavy and opulent.

Selling this ring now would fetch at least ten thousand yuan, wouldn’t it?

To think, this year the term "ten-thousand-yuan household" hadn’t even been coined yet. Ten thousand yuan, that was a huge fortune!
