Chapter 76： One life in exchange for a lifetime of care

In the end, Cui Zhiqiang could only go home dejectedly, but from this day on, his life became filled with fear...

-

Here, before midnight, Xu Xiangbei took Xu Jinning back home.

When he opened the door, Xu Aiguo got up and looked. After seeing that it was Xu Xiangbei, there was no change in his eyes, and he seemed to be used to it.

He knew the character of his younger son. He seemed to be obsessed with making money and doing business.

Although he had a stomachache tonight and he didn't go there for the time being, he knew that his younger son would definitely go there if his stomach didn't hurt anymore.

So he was not surprised to see his youngest son.

But when he saw his youngest son followed by his little girl, his eyes were full of shock, especially when he realized that his little girl was going to the county town with him to do that dangerous thing. He immediately picked up the broom beside him and was about to hit him. Hit the body.

"No, no, dad, don't hit me. It's this late at night. If you hit me and I scream, wouldn't it be known to the neighbors." Xu Xiangbei grabbed the broom that his old father was swinging over.

"Dad, please don't hit me. I asked you to take me there. I won't do it again." Xu Jinning also hurriedly explained.

In fact, she is not curious about buying and selling, and she doesn't like to take risks. She went there tonight just in the hope of helping Xu Xiangbei save his life and not fall into Cui Zhiqiang's trap.

Otherwise, why would she go to the county town to enjoy the breeze in the middle of the night if she chose not to sleep well?

But it was indeed she who asked Xu Xiangbei to take him there.

Xu Aiguo was so angry that he was itching his teeth, "Xu Xiangbei, you know what the consequences will be if you are caught. Even if you take risks on your own, you actually bring your sister with you. I really..."

Xu Aiguo wanted to fight Xu Xiangbei, but what Xu Xiangbei said made sense.

"Ningning, don't say nice things for your little brother, he just needs to be dealt with." In Xu Aiguo's heart, Xu Jinning is very well-behaved and sensible. How could he go to the county town in the middle of the night to participate in such a dangerous thing? It must be Xu Aiguo. Provoked to the north.

It’s all Xu Xiangbei’s fault!

Xu Xiangbei felt inexplicably aggrieved. Why did he feel that after the little sister came back, the father did not love his little son, but instead loved his little girl.

But he also knew that it was indeed dangerous to take Xu Jinning with him tonight.

"I know. Before the news has passed and the situation has not become clear, I will not go again, and I will never take Ningning with me again. Really, I swear!"

Xu Aiguo glanced at Xu Xiangbei steadily, and finally snorted coldly and released his grip on the broom.

Xu Xiangbei breathed a sigh of relief and quickly put the broom aside and put it far away.

"Okay, Ning Ning, go to bed early." After telling his little girl, Xu Aiguo went back to the house. As for Xu Xiangbei, he mainly ignored him.

“I know, Dad.” Xu Jinning responded obediently.

“Let’s go, little sister, let’s go back to your house.”

Xu Jinning was pulled into her room by Xu Xiangbei, and the two of them sat by the bed.

Xu Xiangbei then opened the bag, revealing the watches inside.

He counted 50 of them.

“Fifty watches, each watch costs more than a hundred yuan, but this is thousands of yuan. I will make a fortune.”

In the countryside, most people can only save a dozen or dozens of yuan year-round. This is a few thousand yuan, which is naturally a huge amount of wealth.

Xu Xiangbei touched the full collection of watches, his eyes shining.

 He ​​looked up at the little girl and found that her eyes were very calm, as calm as the watch in front of her, just like the scenery he could see everywhere.

He hurriedly restrained his eyes and sighed in his heart: The little girl is really good. If it were someone else, she might have such greedy eyes.

The little girl’s eyes were really calm, as if the watch in front of her was very ordinary.

Xu Jinning really didn’t take the 50 watches in front of him seriously.

There is no way, she has seen too many jewelry, accessories, jewelry in modern times, the value of which is much greater than these 50 watches.

So she is not greedy at all, even though she has now traveled to this more difficult era.

But her original intention, nature and knowledge remain unchanged. In just the next second, one of her hands was pulled by Xu Xiangbei, and then a watch was put on her wrist.

"This wrist is too thin. You should eat more in the future. Girls' homes should have some meat before they can be found." Holding Xu Jinning's wrist, which was so thin that only bones remained, Xu Xiangbei thought in his heart It's unspeakably distressing.

It was strange. The little girl was obviously thin when she came to this house before, but he just couldn't pay attention to the little girl at that time.

But now, it seems to have changed.

It seems...it started when he could hear the little girl's inner thoughts.

From then on, he really paid attention to this little girl and realized that she existed in the family.

He also began to cherish her a little bit.

The little sister is really too skinny.

Xu Xiangbei knows that when people are looking for a wife these days, they are looking for someone with big breasts, thick butt, flesh, and roundness, so that they can have children and look healthy.

But my little sister is now...

I guess no one would be interested in me even if I were to propose marriage.

And it’s so dark. To be honest, it does look a bit ugly.

Xu Xiangbei was a little worried. It would be difficult for this little girl to get married in the future.

Forget it, if the younger sister can't get married, then he will work hard and raise her for the rest of his life.

After all, his life was saved by his little sister.

One life in exchange for a lifetime of care, there’s nothing wrong with it!

Xu Jinning didn't know what was going on in Xu Xiangbei's heart, so she just watched Xu Xiangbei put the watch on her.

“Okay, I’ll give this watch to you later.”

“How is it? Do you like it?” Xu Xiangbei asked cautiously.

Xu Jinning stared at the watch blankly. The dial of the watch glowed with a metallic luster under the kerosene lamp.

Hearing Xu Xiangbei's question, she immediately raised her head and said, "Hi, I like it."

She naturally likes it.

It seems that after coming to this world and this home, she received more and more gifts.

Dad’s malted milk, mom’s hand-made clothes, eldest brother’s skin care and chicken drumsticks, eldest sister’s cream, and now my younger brother’s gift of a watch.

Perhaps, this is family.

This watch is definitely not comparable to the ones she wore in modern times. The dial is inlaid with diamonds and looks very luxurious.

But the modern ones are just accessories for her.

But the one on the wrist is different now. This is a gift, a gift from the younger brother, or he put it on her personally.

The meaning is different.

"There are still these, I will give them to my parents, eldest brother and eldest sister tomorrow." Xu Xiangbei also kept a few watches that he was going to give to his family, and of course his own.

Xu Xiangbei plans to find time to sell the remaining 44 watches later.

"Little girl, I will sell the remaining watches, and we will get half of the money each." Xu Xiangbei said.

When Xu Jinning heard this, he shook his head and said, "I don't want it. I just have this watch."
