Chapter 121 - 121 Disapproval



121 Disapproval

Ji Huai shouted anxiously, “Ah Tao, don’t you want to know your background? Grandmother said that not only did you have a jade locket on you, but you also had a lot of banknotes!”

“Banknotes?” Ji Zhao raised her eyebrows curiously. “What banknotes?”

“It’s…” Ji Huai, who almost blurted it out, moved his eyes restlessly. “Ah Tao, can you put down the hoe first?”

Ji Zhao thought for a moment and placed the hoe beside her. “If you have something to say, say it quickly.”

“Ah Tao, I’m really in trouble. Otherwise, I wouldn’t have begged you. Can you be merciful and help me?” Ji Huai, who was lying on the ground, kept begging, “It’s not much. Lend me a hundred taels of silver!”

“A hundred taels?” Ji Zhao was amused. “Ji Huai, do you think you have a big face?”

“Ah Tao, we’re a family. It’s one thing for you to hide it from the Shen family, but you’re also hiding it from me?” Ji Huai smiled sinisterly as he winked at her. “If you’re useless, why would the second manager of Hongxing Restaurant look for you? And that poor scholar Zhao Xian, if not for your Second Brother You’s help, he definitely wouldn’t have been imprisoned, right?”

“Ah Tao, I know that you look down on that cripple, Third Young Master Shen. If Grandmother hadn’t been ruthless and sold you out, you wouldn’t have married a cripple like Third Young Master Shen. It’s just that Second Manager You already has a wife, so there’s nothing you can do, right? Ah Tao, I understand your difficulties…”

“You think I have an improper relationship with Second Manager You?”

“Don’t you?” Ji Huai asked subconsciously.

“Pfft!” Ji Zhao spat angrily, picked up the hoe again, and drove Ji Huai away. “Only a dirty person like you would judge others by your own standards. I, Ji Ah Tao, am upright! If you dare to gossip again, believe it or not, I’ll rip out your tongue and tie it into a knot to feed it to the dogs!”

The frightened Ji Huai couldn’t help but shiver!

If he had not dodged quickly just now, that hoe would have really smashed his head open!

After chasing away her scoundrel cousin, Ji Zhao carried the hoe back to the Shen family’s courtyard.

Shen Yao handed her the cut watermelon. “Try it?”

“Thank you.” Ji Zhao smiled gratefully and took a bite of the watermelon.

After eating two watermelons in a row, Ji Zhao finally calmed down.

Unexpectedly, Shen Yao leaned close, stopping just a step away from her.

“What… what’s wrong?”

Shen Yao raised his hand to wipe the melon juice at the corner of her lips.

“What Ji Huai said just now, what… what do you think?” At this moment, Ji Zhao felt an inexplicable frustration in her heart. “They say that women shouldn’t show their faces in public. Do you agree with this?”

Shen Yao shook his head. “I don’t agree.”

“Why?” Ji Zhao was a little surprised.

“When I was young, my mother once brought me to the county city to visit the temple fair and happened to listen to a play, ‘Mu Guiying Takes Command,'” Shen Yao explained with a smile. “At that time, I understood the true meaning of the saying that women are not inferior to men.”

Ji Zhao did not expect Shen Yao to be so open-minded.

“Shen Yao, I like to cook. I like it very much.” Ji Zhao could not help but smile. She said gently, “When everyone finishes every dish I cook, I will feel a sense of accomplishment.”
