After the little cannon fodder was reborn, he chose the villain childhood sweetheart
Chapter 113 Xie Lan Borrows Money
The matter had been finalized, and Jiang Wan was not in a hurry to tell Aunt Xie.
Fourth Aunt Xie must be preparing to go to town to buy braised food tomorrow, so Maodan and the others have to put their reading and writing aside for now.
The weather is getting colder and it will get dark soon.
In the afternoon, Jiang Wan accompanied the four children in the family to read comic books. After finishing one book, Xie Xueling was still not satisfied and pestered Jiang Wan to tell her the bedtime story he had told her before.
Xiaohu and Xiaoliu didn’t know what a bedtime story was. The two children sat obediently on the stools, blinking their big eyes at Jiang Wan.
Jiang Wan was touched by the cute story and immediately told the fairy tale of Cinderella.
After the story was finished, the four children discussed the plot of the story and almost had a fight.
Dusk fell and the earth fell into sleep.
Since Xie Lan was not at home, Jiang Wan stir-fried the braised large intestine and green onions from lunch, stewed eggs, cooked corn porridge, and added a dish of pickled vegetables. Dinner was solved so simply.
After eating, Jiang Wan washed up and got into bed.
Four new tiled houses were built at home, one of which is the kitchen, another is a utility room, and the remaining two have kangs and are bedrooms.
Jiang Wan chose a new bedroom and gave the original living room to Xie Lan.
Jiang Weiran also slept with Xie Jing. Xie Xueling originally slept with Jiang Wan. After Xiaoliu and Xiaohu came, Xie Xueling and Xiaoliu went to sleep in another new room, while Xiaohu stayed in the same room with Jiang Weiran.
Jiang Wan finally got a single room of her own, and she was extremely happy.
After more than a month of traveling through the book, it finally looks like what it is.
She recalled when she first came here, she was in the shabby adobe house and the old wooden bed of the Jiang family.
Look at the brand new and clean new house now, and the warm and spacious kang.
The two are simply worlds apart and cannot be compared at all.
Jiang Wan was looking at the roof, and was just about to calculate his savings to see how long he could lie comfortably, when there was a gentle knock on the door.
"Who?"
"I."
A concise and familiar voice.
"Xie Lan? You're back?"
Jiang rolled up his body, put on a thin coat, and quickly went to open the door.
As soon as the door opened, the cold wind blew towards Jiang Wan. She subconsciously pulled her thin jacket closer and looked up at Xie Lan, who was wearing indigo clothes.
"What's wrong? What's the matter?"
Xie Lan took two steps towards her, as if trying to shield her from the cold wind outside.
"Go in and talk."
He was concise and to the point.
Jiang Wan was stunned for a moment, but still moved aside.
It's not like she and Xie Lan have been in the same room together before, so there's nothing to be shy about.
Xie Lan entered the room but did not sit down. Instead, he signaled Jiang Wan with his eyes to get on the kang.
Jiang Wan naturally would not take off her thin jacket and go into bed to talk to Xie Lan in front of him.
Just thinking about that scene makes me feel embarrassed.
"Where have you been? Why did you come to me as soon as you came back? What's the matter?"
Jiang Wan sat on the edge of the kang and asked the first question.
Xie Lan looked at her for a while before speaking: "I want to borrow some money from you."
"Borrow money?"
Jiang Wanmei's heart skipped a beat. Just as she was about to check how much money she had left in her savings, Xie Lan asked her to borrow money. Could it be that Xie Lan had the ability to predict the future and knew that she was also thinking about money?
Jiang Wan looked at Xie Lan suspiciously and asked curiously, "May I ask you something? What do you want to borrow money for? As far as I know, you have more than 200 taels on you, right? Where is the rest of the silver? Have you used it all up?"
"Ah."
Xie Lan nodded decisively.
Jiang Wan was dumbfounded and asked again in disbelief.
"More than two hundred taels? You spent it all? What did you do? Did you...gamble?"
The only way to spend more than two hundred taels in this small place like Luohe Town in just over ten days was gambling.
But Xie Lan doesn't look like the kind of person who would gamble, right?
Did he go to a prostitute?
No no no, impossible!
Jiang Wan immediately dispelled the thought.
It is impossible for Xie Lan, with his cold and icy personality, to visit a prostitute, just like it is impossible for a mute to speak.
But apart from gambling and prostitution, Jiang Wan really couldn't think of anything else that could make Xie Lan spend money so quickly.
Could it be that Xie Lan got into some lawsuit?
Xie Lan couldn't help but find it interesting to see her being angry, shocked, confused and thoughtful at one moment.
He didn't rush to explain, but quietly appreciated Jiang Wan's emotional changes.
I never thought Jiang Wan was so interesting before.
When encountering Mrs. Jiang's family making trouble, she is the one who remains calm and decisive.
Playing with Xie Jing and Xie Xueling, she is naughty and cute.
She takes good care of Jiang Weiran and is filial and patient.
She is not panicked when having affairs, she is smart and calm, and she is also generous in her love of money.
Jiang Wan's "core" seemed to have many personalities, many of which he had never seen but was not at all disgusted by.
"No, it's not gambling."
Xie Lan's answer was concise, and he did not reveal what he was going to do with the money.
Jiang Wan thought for a long time, but couldn't figure out Xie Lan's purpose for borrowing money.
After a long time, she accepted her fate and stopped thinking about it. She decided to see how much Xie Lan wanted to borrow first.
"I can lend you money, but..." Jiang Wan paused, glanced at Xie Lan's stern face, and said, "But I don't have much savings. If you borrow too much, I won't have any."
Xie Lan pursed his lips, thought for a while, and said, "One hundred and fifty taels."
"One hundred and fifty taels?"
Jiang Wan was stunned for a moment, and glared at him unhappily, "Why don't you just take all my secrets away!"
The last time she went to Luohe Town to shop, she checked the silver she had on her and found that there was about 180 taels of silver.
Later, I went on a shopping spree and probably spent nearly ten taels of silver.
Xie Lan asked for a huge sum of money, one hundred and fifty taels, which was equivalent to emptying her savings!
Xie Lan's ears turned slightly red, but her expression remained calm.
"I'll pay it back soon."
He said it quickly, but there was a hint of shyness in his tone, as if he was too embarrassed to ask Jiang Wan.
But Jiang Wan thought about it carefully for a while and did not hear any embarrassment from him. Instead, she looked at Xie Lan's expressionless face, which was full of self-righteousness.
Yes, the only one who can borrow money with such a strong momentum is Xie Lan.
Jiang Wan was a little reluctant, and after struggling for a while, she finally gave in.
Go ahead and lend it to her. Xie Lan will have great fortune in the future, and if she follows him, maybe she can enjoy the good fortune too.
She cleared her throat and said, "I have 150 taels of silver. You can borrow it from me, but I'm really a little curious. Where did you spend the hundreds of taels of silver? You don't have to tell me too much. Just tell me a little."
Xie Lan was silent for a moment, his thin lips opening and closing, his voice cold.
"Find someone."
Seeing that he was very frugal with his words and only said two words, Jiang Wan became more and more puzzled.
Xie Lan is looking for someone?
Who are you looking for?
Jiang Wan couldn't think of anything, and Xie Lan kept silent again, looking like he wouldn't say another word.
Jiang Wan had no choice but to give up. She asked, "Are you in a hurry to get the money now?"
Xie Lan thought for a while and said, "Tomorrow. Go to bed early and don't catch a cold."
His words of concern were also cold and indifferent, without a trace of warmth in them, but they were words he seldom said to others.
Jiang Wan said 'hmm' and politely replied, "You too."
