Chapter 294: Chapter 294: Giving You Pocket Money
Translator: 549690339 |
When Yang Ye said that he was going to give 500 taels today, he really wanted to protest in the same way.
Qiao Xiaomai is his girlfriend after all, how could he just stand by at this moment?
But he had no grounds to openly object.
He could only swallow his frustration.
He later realized that Yang Ye might have discovered his relationship with Qiao Xiaomai, so he left willingly.
He felt very uneasy all afternoon.
At one point, he even thought about ending the relationship. Xiaomai was so wonderful, he didn’t want her to be implicated in any way.
But he couldn’t bear to.
He truly couldn’t bear to.
Living to the age of seventeen, he tasted the beauty of love for the first time, and he couldn’t bear to let it go.
Every moment they spent together felt like an unexpected gain.
Maybe, there might not be a tomorrow.
So while they could still be together now, he wanted to do whatever he could for Xiaomai.
“Don’t feel sorry, 1 will replenish you.” He smiled and said.
Xiaomai raised her eyebrows and picked up the pile of silver notes, all in denominations of a hundred taels. She counted them one by one, and finally said, “Five thousand taels, is this your private money?”
“Yes, I am the young master of Tingfeng Pavilion, of course I have private money.” Tong Sanlang said as he lifted the tea cup and took a light sip, “Actually, my family receives quite a bit of dividends from Jimei Ju every year, but this money is managed by my grandfather.”
“Tingfeng Pavilion makes money from selling information too, but after sharing with Grandpa Liu, the money is also managed by grandpa.”
“The five thousand taels, partly are the wages I get every month after becoming the young master, and partly are the rewards I’ve received over the years during the New Year. I didn’t have many expenses, so I accumulated this much.”
Xiaomai made a sound of acknowledgment, dragging out the end of the note. Five thousand taels, quite impressive for a seventeen-year-old country boy.
“As the young master of Tingfeng Pavilion, how much do you earn in a month?” she asked.
“One hundred taels.”
“That’s quite little.”
“It was set by grandpa. He said I was young, and wouldn’t need that much silver.”
Xiaomai made a few tut-tutting noises, then returned the pile of silver notes to Tong Sanlang, “You keep it, it’s the thought that counts.”
“I’m compensating you.” Tong Sanlang emphasized the word ‘compensating’ and pushed the silver notes back.
“It’s only thirty taels. What I’m peeved about is the ten thousand kilos of wheat, and not being able to swallow this slight.” Xiaomai hummed and pointed at the silver notes. “Take it away, 1 don’t want it.”
“Why don’t you want it? If we really do get married in the future, I’ll have to hand it over anyway. If we don’t get married, letting these silver notes lying around at my place would be a waste. Regardless, I’m giving them to you in this lifetime.” Tong Sanlang said.
Xiaomai”…”
‘If we don’t get married,’ this sentence made her feel a little bitter inside.
If they didn’t get married, there would only be one outcome.
She curved her lips into a smile, picked up the silver notes, and carefully put them away in the void.
The sincerity of a young man was worth more than its weight in gold.
She took nine dimes out of the void and put them in front of Tong Sanlang, “Here, since you’ve handed over your private money, then I should give you pocket money. Take it and spend it freely, if it’s not enough as me for more.”
Tong Sanlang’s handsome face showed a surprised color, “No need, I still have some spare change.”
“It’s not the same, I just want to give you pocket money.”
Tong Sanlang was taken aback for a moment, then began to laugh, “Can I have it in silver?”
Nine dimes, nine thousand copper coins, were quite cumbersome to carry.
“In the countryside, it’s more convenient to use copper coins.”
“Well in that case, I’ll accept it.” Tong Sanlang nodded, “From now on, I’ll hand over my wages to you every month.”
“Then I’ll give you pocket money every month.”
The two looked at each other and then burst into laughter.
The night was, indeed, so wonderful..
