Chapter 366: Chapter 366: So, Any Rewards?

The news spread so quickly that soon the whole village knew that the Scholar and his wife had bought that plot of land which often yielded nothing.

Such a big event can’t go without some gossip.

"The Scholar’s wife really bought that land?"

"Indeed, the Village Chief’s wife said so, could there be any doubt?"

"Hey, why do you think the Scholar’s wife wanted to buy that low-lying land?"

"Could it be that she doesn’t know and was tricked by the Village Chief?"

"Give it a rest, even if the Scholar’s wife doesn’t know, wouldn’t the Scholar know? They went to buy that low-lying land together."

"Now that is strange, could there be some treasure hidden in that land?"

"..."

"..."

Because Xiaoxiao and Yang Ming bought the land, there were various opinions, some said they were foolish, some said they were deceived, but the most outrageous rumor was that there was treasure in the land.

And indeed, someone really went to dig for treasure. Xiaoxiao burst into laughter when she found out. Were they providing free labor to till her land? It would be nice if there were really treasures.

When her family learned that they had bought that plot of land, they couldn’t understand it, feeling that money had been wasted.

But there was nothing to be done since the purchase was already made, and it couldn’t be returned. Hearing from Yang Ming and Xiaoxiao that with good management, it might turn out to be good land, they reluctantly accepted it.

The rumor that there was treasure in the land grew wilder, and the second brother’s wife charged into the house, "Little sister-in-law, is there really treasure in that land?"

Before Xiaoxiao could even speak, she heard her sister-in-law say anxiously, "Everyone is heading to our land, what if they dig up the treasure?"

"Pfft." This statement truly amused Xiaoxiao. Her sister-in-law actually believed there was treasure, "Sister-in-law, there’s no treasure, but we have gotten free labor to till our land."

Upon hearing this, the second brother’s wife froze for a moment, then realizing the joke, she slapped her thigh, "Oh, little sister-in-law, how do you come up with such ideas? I didn’t think of this at all. Now I can relax, I’m off."

Without a doubt, she was off to spread word to the other family members.

This sister-in-law was like the family jester, completely different from the first sister-in-law’s temperament.

After the sister-in-law left, Xiaoxiao looked at her beloved husband and laughed heartily, "Husband, do you think there might really be treasures in that land?"

Yang Ming drew his wife close, seating her on his lap, and looked at her affectionately, "Any land bought by my wife is definitely treasure land."

Xiaoxiao was startled by Yang Ming’s sudden movement, but then she wrapped her arms around his neck and looked at him just as affectionately, "Of course, who do they think I, Zhong Xiaoxiao, am?"

"You are my wife."

"Yes, your wife." Xiaoxiao giggled goofily, "We really have to thank the person who spread the rumor about the treasure. If not for them, where would all these volunteers to till our land come from?"

Yang Ming, with his arms around his wife’s waist, said, "So, should I get a reward then?"

"..." Upon hearing this, Xiaoxiao’s eyes widened. No way, this scheme was orchestrated by her clever husband? How sly and craftily clever he was.

"Husband, is it really okay to deceive the villagers like this?" Although she also felt that this plan was truly awesome.

"I’m just giving them something to do, who let them say buying the land was foolish?"

"..."

"So, about that reward?"
