Chapter 207: Golden Bracelet
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Qin Xi pretended to be in a difficult position.
“How about this? Give me the deed first and we’ll sign it. I happen to have a bankbook of 3,000 yuan with me. I’ll give it to you. Then, you can come with me to get the land contract, ok?”
3,000 yuan?
Qin Guobiao and Li Guihua were dumbfounded. They had lived for so long but had never seen 3,000 yuan. It would be a lie to say that they were not excited.
Qin Hongtao, who was originally cowering in the corner, became even more excited. He suddenly jumped up, his eyes shining and his lips trembling with excitement. “Where’s the money?”
Qin Guobiao was not blinded by money. He asked warily, “Why do you have so much money with you?”
Qin Xi shrugged and said frankly, “I wanted the villagers to go up the mountain to help pick fruits today. This is their salary!”
“I’ll use this 3,000 yuan as collateral. As long as you sign it, this money will be yours.”
Qin Guobiao felt that something was wrong. He was threatening Qin Xi to take out the property rights to the orchard. Why did Qin Xi suddenly want this house?
However, at the thought that Qin Xi would give them 3,000 as collateral, he did not think too much about it.
He pondered for a moment and nodded in agreement.
However, although he agreed, the deed was still in the house, and there was something in the house that terrified him, so he hesitated.
Li Guihua’s face turned pale and she said with a trembling voice, “The deed is in the house, but the house is haunted. If you want to get it, go and get it yourself.”
Qin Xi said nonchalantly, “Sure, where is it?”
Li Guihua pouted. She wanted to tell Qin Xi the place, but she was afraid that Qin Xi would pocket the things inside and was hesitating if she should tell her.
“If you’re worried, you can follow me in.” Qin Xi said with a teasing gaze.
The three of them quickly shook their heads. Li Guihua quickly said, “Under the stove in the southeast corner.”
Qin Xi nodded and walked in casually.
Qin Xi looked at the stove carefully and found a square iron box under it. When she opened the box, there was a stack of money and a pair of golden bracelets worn by children. The patterns carved on them were very unique.
Qin Xi frowned and picked up the golden bracelet to study it carefully.
With the Qin family’s financial condition, how could they afford such an expensive golden bracelet? Moreover, it was for the child. All these years, the Host had never seen a child of the Qin family wear it. In other words, this golden bracelet might not belong to the Qin family.
Thinking of the way Hu Xiaofeng looked at her, Qin Xi had a bold guess.
Although it was just a guess, she still put the golden bracelet back and walked out with the deed at the bottom.
Li Guihua looked at Qin Xi suspiciously. “You didn’t take anything inside, did you?”
“Yes!” Qin Xi said with a smile.
Li Guihua treasured that golden bracelet very much!
She had stolen this golden bracelet from Hu Xiaofeng. Although she did not know where Hu Xiaofeng got it from, since it was in her hand, it was hers. All these years, she had taken it out almost every night to appreciate it. It had become her habit.
Therefore, Li Guihua thought that Qin Xi had taken her golden bracelet. She was so angry that she lost her rationality and pounced on Qin Xi. “Give me my golden bracelet. You little bastard, if you dare to steal my golden bracelet, I’ll tear you apart!”
Qin Xi snorted and inserted a needle into Li Guihua’s acupoint without hesitation.
