Chapter 779: Honest
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Xiang Zhifu’s heart was filled with complicated emotions. “Wife, it’s good that Ling’er can read. However, there’s a difference between men and women…”
“Since you know that there’s a difference between men and women, why don’t you call Ling’er into the kitchen? Isn’t Ah Yu here?” Chu Xingjun glared at him.
Xiang Zhifu was a little puzzled. The old woman had always had a good temper. Why was she suddenly so fierce?
Although he was confused, Xiang Zhifu still cared more about his daughter’s reputation, so he did not ask much. He got up and called Xiang Ling’er into the kitchen.
Xiang Ling’er did not have any special reaction and obediently went in.
Du Heng, on the other hand, felt the attitude of the elders of the Xiang family and frowned slightly. He was a little worried.
After that, the Xiang family was busy preparing dinner.
Before dinner, Wang Shichu indeed brought two carriages of gifts.
Although Xiang Zhifu was already mentally prepared, he was still shocked when he saw this.
He waited outside the courtyard with the Xiang brothers. Because Chu Heng was here, he did not want to embarrass Chu Heng. Thus, he did not go up to Wang Shichu. Instead, he stood at the door and waited for Wang Shichu to come down from the carriage.
Wang Shichu walked over quickly with a smile on his face. He apologized, “I’m sorry, Brother. This is a misunderstanding. I’m sorry to disturb you so late at night. Please don’t mind.”
“I just feel uneasy. These gifts are for your family. Please don’t mind them.”
“Master Wang is too polite. As long as you don’t cause trouble for my family, this matter will be over,” Xiang Zhifu said directly.
Wang Shichu choked. It had been a long time since he had met someone who did not hide his true thoughts.
However, he quickly reacted.
“Brother, since you speak honestly, I will tell you the truth. This matter is really my fault. It will never happen again. You can rest assured.”
“Alright, then.” Xiang Zhifu nodded.
As he spoke, he waved his hand and let Wang Shichu go back.
Wang Shichu was stunned. He quickly grabbed his hand and forced a smile. “Brother, you can’t do this. If you don’t accept it, I’ll feel that you’re still blaming me.”
“But you’re giving too much.” Xiang Zhifu frowned as he looked at the two carts of things. They had everything he needed.
“How many bolts of fabric should we reduce?” Wang Shichu asked.
“There’s too much. Just give us a few bolts of fabric will do.” Xiang Zhifu was too lazy to argue with him and said directly.
“This… This is too little…” Wang Shichu did not know what to say. He had prepared many gifts and valuable items, but the other party only wanted three bolts of cloth.
Xiang Zhifu said, “We’re poor. How can we be so extravagant? If you give me too much, I’ll feel uneasy. Besides, aren’t you apologizing sincerely?”
“If you are sincere, then send some fabric to those who have been drugged.”
Xiang Zhifu thought about it and felt that he couldn’t just take advantage of his own family. Those who had helped his family and the villagers had to benefit a little. Otherwise, who would be willing to help him?
“Just a few bolts of cloth?” Wang Shichu found it hard to believe.
Xiang Zhifu nodded firmly. “That’s right, Master Wang. Don’t give me too much. Otherwise, I won’t be happy.”
“I’m very satisfied with this.”
“Really?” Wang Shichu did not believe it and asked again.
Xiang Zhifu nodded. “It can’t be any more real. I’m not like you country bumpkins who always leave half of what I say to others to guess.”
