Reborn in the Seventies: Pampered Wife, Owning some Farmland

Chapter 389: Chapter 389: Explanation is Concealment, Concealment is Telling Stories_1
 

Old Mr. Zhao brought up the topic from before again, “My dear, tell me, how much did you really pay for the house at first? That young girl said that the house would cost at least five or six thousand. Is that true?”

If it’s true, where did the two thousand come from, dear?

Did you really sell Ahao to buy a house?

I don’t believe it, but on thinking deeper, what that young girl said makes sense.

You’ve smartened up this time, Lu Jingyi, but you’ve caused trouble.

Ahao might have asked her before how much the house actually cost, perhaps Lu Jingyi stirred things up a bit. Only that Ahao didn’t believe it but turned his attention to his home.

“Dad, the house really cost just over three thousand, haven’t I told you? The owner was in a hurry to sell at that time, and I only had a little over three thousand, so I haggled a bit, and the owner sold it to me. I’m your daughter, would I lie to you? Don’t you trust what your own daughter says, and believe outsiders instead?” With her last question, Meng Yunhan made Old Mr. Zhao let go of his previous suspicions.

She had foreseen this outcome, but she didn’t expect Lu Jingyi to intervene, bringing up an issue that had already been settled.

Seeing Meng Yunhan’s stern face, it was clear she was angry. Old Mr. Zhao hastily assured her, “Of course I believe you. I don’t even know that young girl; I only met her for the first time today.”

He paused before expressing his concern, “Isn’t it just that this house was too cheap?”

Meng Yunhan found it both funny and frustrating.

In this age, three thousand is indeed a lot of money.

“Dad, Ahao’s salary has gone up, and he only makes over fifty now. Even if he neither eats nor drinks, he can only make over six hundred a year. It would take five years of not eating or drinking to accumulate this amount of money. It’s really not cheap.”

Upon his daughter’s analysis, Old Mr. Zhao also instantly thought it was not cheap after all, not cheap at all.

“Then, my dear, that young girl said, you sold Ahao to her for two thousand and got the money, but you didn’t admit it. Is that true? Looking at that young girl’s attire, she also seems rich.”

Upon hearing these words, Meng Yunhan was first shocked, then angry.

What a great lie Lu Jingyi had spun.

Moreover, she was able to find her home, so she must have some skill. Also, she knew the price of her house.

She had indeed underestimated Lu Jingyi before. She should never underestimate anyone.

You can’t judge a book by its cover, and Lu Jingyi turned out to be so cunning.

Because Meng Yunhan got the short end of the stick in this matter, she dared not underestimate anyone in her life journey henceforth.

She couldn’t help but laugh, “She’s good at making up stories.” She remembered a saying: An explanation is a disguise, and a disguise is a tale.

Looking at the story that Lu Jingyi had spun, why doesn’t she write a novel? What a waste of her imagination.

“Is this fake?” Old Mr. Zhao asked incredulously.

That girl seemed to know what she’s talking about, was it fake?

Meng Yunhan laughed, “Of course it’s fake. Ahao is priceless to me, how could I possibly sell him? Dad, don’t believe what others say. You don’t know, do you? This girl likes Ahao, but she was rejected by Ahao. That’s why she turned her attention to our house, trying to make a mess so that she can benefit from it.”

This rival must be driven away.

She’s deceived her way to the house, who knows what crazy thing she would do next.
