Chapter Twenty

Fu Jingchao showed a somewhat helpless look. He couldn't scold such a little girl, and it wasn't very good to beat her. Could he really throw her into the river to feed the fish?

Shen Xingwan felt a chill rise in his heart when he saw him, and said with an awkward smile, "What, do you really want it?"

"Otherwise, do you think I'm joking with you?" Fu Jingchao couldn't help but roll his eyes at her.

Shen Xingwan had a small calculation in his mind and said seriously, "But I really like that set of jewelry. Nothing else can replace it in terms of beauty!"

Fu Jingchao looked at her artificial acting skills and understood what she meant in a second. She was not satisfied with the compensation plan they proposed and didn't want the jewelry.

"Tell me what you want in exchange." Fu Jingchao said calmly.

"Brother needs money to study, money to buy rice and oil, and money to buy clothes... The Shen family is really short of money." Wei Xi hinted crazily.

"So you chose to trick me?" Fu Jingchao looked at her deliberately and seriously.

Does he look like he has the word "taken advantage of" written on his head? He is very thoughtful at his young age.

Shen Xingwan twitched the corner of her mouth. She felt that compared to what she had read in novels, when she traveled to ancient times, she could sell a few prescriptions for hundreds of taels. As soon as she went up the mountain, she would not dig up all kinds of precious medicinal materials, or the heroine would be attacked by prey.

halo.

As a vicious female supporting character, she still found it easier to negotiate terms with this mysterious, wealthy, but not stupid "family sister".

"You really dare to speak, and you are not afraid that I will kill someone and silence you." Fu Jingchao said to scare her.

Shen Xingwan glanced at Fat Meow, who was about to fall asleep in Hongling's arms with his chin being scratched.

Huh, that set of jewelry was thrown into Fat Meow's random space along with the banknotes.

I have to say that Fu Jingchao made the right bet by placing the things here with her. It was extremely safe.

"Then I promise sister, I won't find what you want even if you dig three feet into the ground." Shen Xingwan said with a smile, as if he was just talking casually.

Fu Jingchao's expression became serious. He didn't dare to gamble.

The incense that appeared on the boat that day, as well as Shen Xingwan's extraordinary intelligence on many occasions, made Fu Jingchao never dare to treat her as an ordinary child.

Don't underestimate anyone! This is something he has long understood.

"How much money do you want?" Fu Jingchao asked.

Shen Xingwan didn't dare to go too far. She flashed her big eyes and pretended to be obedient. "Sister, please give it to me. My sister really can't even eat, so I made this decision. I hope my sister won't worry."

"I'll come to Shen's house in person to pick it up in a few days." Fu Jingchao ignored her cuteness and said coldly.

Shen Xingwan gave him a big smile in return, "I will be at home and wait for my sister to come."

But I couldn't help but feel happy. I had a little more start-up capital, and I was one step closer to my dream of being a salty fish.

Fu Jingchao looked at her with an excited face, and her whole body was exuding a happy message. She couldn't help but wonder, "Since you love money so much, why don't you stay in the Hou Mansion and have your pick of rare treasures?"

Shen Xingwan narrowed his eyes and said lazily, "I'm young and I'm stupid. If you touch something that doesn't belong to you, you will pay the price."

If the daughter of the Hou family was so easy to pawn, the original owner would not have suffered the same fate.

"You are really different from ordinary little girls." Fu Jingchao held the teapot in his hand and refilled half a cup of tea for himself.

What was it like to be the daughter of a marquis in the capital?

Fu Jingchao really can't remember much. He was too young. Even if he was born in a noble family, few people pay attention to it and few people mention it.

Shen Xingwan smiled confidently and said without any guilt, "Of course, I have been the smartest since I was a child, and everyone praises me like this."

"I didn't realize it because I was smart, but I am narcissistic." Fu Jingchao said speechlessly.

Soon Shen Tang came over after finishing his work. He waved to Shen Xingwan at the stairs but did not come over.

Shen Xingwan jumped off the stool and said, "My father is here, I'm leaving first."

Fu Jingchao took a look, and saw that she was a middle-aged woman and man with clear features. She looked at Shen Xingwan with obvious fondness.

But I suddenly felt that it might not be a smart move for her to come back. There are many secrets behind the high-ranking family, and she has such an embarrassing status.

"Pack up the table like this. You will eat in a mess and it will make you upset." Fu Jingchao said softly.

Qingsi immediately asked the waiter for oilcloth paper to wrap up all the remaining pastries and handed them to her.

Shen Xingwan happily took it and didn't dislike it at all.

Before leaving, she winked at Fu Jingchao mischievously and said, "Sister, she is kind-hearted and a good person."

Then he took Banxia to Shen Tang who was waiting aside, handed him the cake, and happily held his hand and left.

Fu Jingchao still sat down, looking calmly at the street outside the window. Shen Xingwan's back disappeared little by little.

He said without any expression, "She actually praised me as a good person. It seems that I am blind at a young age."

Shen Xingwan: I just praise someone because of their short hands, so don’t think too much about it!

Qingsi couldn't help but said, "When the young lady is with her, she talks a lot more."

Fu Jingchao firmly refused to admit it and said, "It's all her fault for being too noisy. I've never seen a girl talk so much."

Because of today's unexpected fortune, Shen Xingwan's whole body was trembling when he walked.

Shen Tang glanced at her, "Are you so happy? Because of that clan sister?"

Shen Xingwan chuckled, "Of course I'm happy to eat and drink together. You don't have to spend money, and you can take it back to your mother and brothers to try it."

"You have been wronged." Shen Tang felt unhappy.

Shen Xingwan looked up at him with curved eyebrows, "I'm not wronged. I feel very at ease when I'm with my parents."

"Dad will work hard to let you live a good life." Shen Tang looked at her soft heart and solemnly promised.

"Okay, I believe dad will wait for this day to come." Shen Xingwan looked at Shen Tang with admiration.

Of course, this idea needs a lot of encouragement and support. Rainbow farts are universal in ancient and modern times and must not be missed.

"Let's go back. Your mother should be waiting at home." Shen Tang's mood obviously improved a lot after being praised.

Shen Xingwan said with some embarrassment, "Dad, I have something I want to discuss with you."

"you say."

"Ban Xia's identity and the current situation of the Shen family. If she follows me back, I'm afraid she will cause trouble sooner or later."

"This is indeed a problem." Shen Tang frowned.

The situation at home is not suitable for having a maid at all. Old Mrs. Shen is not an economical person and will start to cause trouble sooner or later.

"Then what do you think?" Shen Tang asked.

"Can you find a place for her first and let her come back after we separate?"

Shen Xingwan planned to train the loyal maid in the original work to become his right-hand man.

No matter what business you do in the future, it is very important to have your own confidants and team.
