“There’s a regular in your gambling den called Ji Huai. He owes the gambling den a lot of money, right?” Ji Zhao lowered her eyes slightly and said softly, “I can help Ji Huai pay off the money he owes the gambling den. Moreover, this deal is definitely profitable for you.”

“Miss, you’re really interesting.” The smile in Qin Minghong’s eyes deepened. “I’m starting to be interested in the deal you mentioned.”

“I’ll help Ji Huai return the money. The gambling den will chop off his right hand,” Ji Zhao said casually. “If he dares to step into the gambling den in the future, break his right leg.”

Qin Minghong was very surprised.

He did not expect a delicate and weak-looking girl to say such ruthless words expressionlessly.

“The relationship between Ji Huai and this Miss is…”

“He’s my cousin.” Ji Zhao thought for a moment and placed all the silver in her arms on the table at the side. “There’s about three hundred and twenty taels of silver here. The extra twenty taels can be considered my thank-you gift.”

“Thank you.” Ji Zhao put down the silver and left.

From beginning to end, she did not ask for Qin Minghong’s opinion.

Looking at her slender back, Qin Minghong silently curled his lips.

“Go investigate this girl.”

“Yes!”

This was the first time he had met such a domineering and interesting girl.

After walking out of Octagonal Guests, Ji Zhao heaved a long sigh of relief. Then, she turned around and went to the county office.

Thanks to the amount of money she had used for bribery, she did not suffer any physical pain.

After reporting Madam Xie to the county office, Ji Zhao began her journey home.

After returning to Shanghe Village, she was not in a hurry to return to the Shen family’s courtyard. Instead, she took a detour to the Earth Temple.

“Earth God, your devotee, Ji Zhao, have specially bought roasted chicken for you.” Ji Zhao smiled sweetly. After cleaning the shrine platform, she carefully placed the roasted chicken on it and respectfully offered an incense stick.

“Earlier in the gambling house, it must have been you, Earth God, who secretly protected me!” Ji Zhao said gratefully. “I’ve never been lucky since I was young. It must have been you who helped me in secret to win so much silver, right?”

“I have always been someone who repays kindness and takes revenge. Madam Xie has bullied me over and over again. I can’t take it anymore!” Ji Zhao sighed softly. “I only hope that the perpetrators will receive the punishment they deserve.”

When Ji Zhao returned to the Shen residence, it was already dusk.

“You’re back? Wash your hands and eat.” Hearing the footsteps, Zhao Lanhua hurriedly walked into the courtyard and said with a smile, “Mother made chestnut roast chicken tonight! There’s also fragrant chili stir-fried meat!”

“Okay.” Ji Zhao smiled and nodded obediently.

Around 7pm, the Shen family sat around the square table in the central room.

“We’re all here. Don’t just stand there. Hurry up and eat,” Zhao Lanhua called out with a smile. Then, she picked up a chicken drumstick with her chopsticks and placed it in Ji Zhao’s bowl. “Ah Tao, try it. See how Mother’s cooking is.”

“Ah Tao, this drumstick is for you too. Eat more!” Second Sister-in-law Shen also picked up a drumstick from her bowl.

“The chicken wings taste good too.” Shen Dashan also added food to her bowl.

“This chicken wing is for you too.” Shen Yao, who had always been a man of few words, couldn’t help but add another mouthful of food.

Ji Zhao looked at the bowl piled up into a small mountain in front of her and couldn’t help but smile.

However, as she smiled, her eyes turned red.
