I Made a Fortune By Raiding Houses In Ancient Times Chapter 182

Lingchu didn't understand. She didn't know the county lord, so why was she so hostile to him?

 She was so hostile that she was told to leave the capital and never be allowed to come back.

 Normally, she has never interacted with Fang Fang, and the chance of meeting him is almost zero. Whether she stays in the capital or not has no impact.

 But since the county lord insists on her leaving the capital, does this mean that her existence threatens the other party?

Han Yao saw her frowning in thought, and her expression became more and more similar to that person's.

 She made a bet with this disaster star, not only to prove that she was luckier than her, but more importantly, to make the other party go back to the Taoist temple.

With the appearance of this disaster star, if she continues to stay in Kyoto, there is no guarantee that people will one day become suspicious of her appearance.

 If you can't figure it out, put it aside for now.

Looking past the opponent's hands that were tightly holding the handkerchief, Ling Chu asked quietly, "What does the county master want to bet on?"

Seeing her move, Han Yao suppressed the joy in her heart and asked as calmly as possible, "Does Miss Ling agree to the conditions just now?"

"Let me leave the capital and never come back. I am given a hair crown and a bracelet. Which one do you think I will choose?"

Han Yao snorted coldly in her heart. It was because she thought the lottery was short, but she didn't expect this disaster star to be quite greedy.

But that's right, I grew up in a place like Taoist temple, and I never saw any good things. If I have the opportunity, I shouldn't try to take advantage of it.

Han Yao took off the jade pendant on her body and asked, "A hair crown, a bracelet, and this jade pendant, will it be enough?"

Lingchu ignored her and glanced over her head intentionally or unintentionally.

Han Yao was furious in her heart. She raised her hand again and took off all the other headdresses on her head.

 Seeing Han Yao bet all the jewelry on her body, Cuiliu suddenly felt uneasy, "County Lord, this is inappropriate..."

Han Yao glared with a cold face and motioned for her to shut up.

Hum, that disaster star thought he could get what he wanted from her, and didn't even bother to see if she had that ability.

In order to prevent Ling Chu from having another excuse for procrastinating, Han Yao took off all the jewelry on her head, including the necklace and earrings she wore around her neck as gifts.

Ling Chu looked at Han Yao who was naked from top to bottom, with no jewelry left, and then smiled with satisfaction.

Seeing her smile, Han Yao was furious, "Are you satisfied now?"

I thought that the bane star would agree now, but the other party shook his head with a smile, "A few accessories are insignificant to the county master. It doesn't matter even if I lose. But if I lose, I have to leave the capital. , and will never come back. Comparing the two, who will suffer more, I don't need to say, the county master knows it, right?"

Han Yao gritted her teeth in anger, "Then what else do you want?"

Ling Chu took a look at the accessories piled on the table and said softly, "Among these things, the county master, that bracelet is pretty good, but it's a pity that there is only one."

 “Why, do you still want a pair?”

Ling Chu nodded with an exasperated smile, "As the saying goes, good things come in pairs. It would be a pity if I could only have one."

 Hmph, she does have some discernment. The pair of bracelets were a congratulatory gift given to her by the imperial concubine after she was made the county lord by the emperor. How could she give it to this disaster star? "The other one, as you saw, was mortgaged to Liu Dong's family just now. Forgive me that I can't use it as a lottery prize."

"It's simple. The county owner can write an IOU to Liu Dong's family and exchange the bracelet for him." Hearing these light words, Han Yao had an impulse and thought about scratching the other person's smiling face.

 “Don't bully others too much!”

Ling Chu's smile faded, "Who is the one who bullied me too much? I had no intention of betting with you, but you insisted on betting with me. You also put forward such excessive conditions. If I lose, I will never be able to return to the capital." If that's the case, shouldn't the county owner's prize be considered fair?”

Lingchu saw that the other party's face was purple with anger, and he shook his head, "Since the county owner is not sincere, let's forget the bet. It's time to go back home after being out for so long."

Seeing that she turned and left without hesitation, Han Yao could not be willing to do so.

“Wait a minute, you want a bracelet, I'll give it to you.”

Ling Chu paused and turned sideways, "Why do you have to force yourself, County Lord? I don't want word to spread that I, a Taoist nun, bullied you, the County Lord. I can't bear the crime."

Han Yao almost couldn't help shouting, "Don't push yourself too far," but she was worried that if she said this, the disaster star would really leave, so she had to swallow her anger and put on a smile, "How could Miss Ling bully me? It's because I'm idle." It's okay, I want you to play with me.”

Ling Chu glanced at her intently, then shook his head, "Forget it, the county master likes to gamble on stones, so you can find someone else to play with you. I'm worried that if I win you, there will be some unpleasant gossip, which will hurt me. The harmony between you and me.”

Even though she was furious at Ling Chu's repeated advances, Han Yao suddenly woke up when she was staring at her.

In order not to make the disaster star suspicious, she smiled and softened her tone, "How could it be possible? Miss Ling and I hit it off right away, and I thought about dating you in the future. Besides, except for you and me, everyone else in this Jade Pavilion is a man. , I don't want to bet with them.

Betting on stones is such a fun thing, I think it would be more interesting to do it with you. "

Perhaps because he was afraid that she would refuse again, Han Yao immediately turned to Liu Gui and said, "Dr. Liu, please return that bracelet to me. I will write you an IOU and have someone deliver the money to you tomorrow. Is that okay?"

Liu Gui smiled and nodded in agreement. He was eager to return the bracelet. This thing was given by the imperial concubine, and he was worried that if he bumped it while keeping it in his hand, he would not be able to explain it.

Seeing that Han Yao agreed to exchange the IOU for the bracelet, Ling Chu glanced at her calmly.

The reason why she repeatedly tested the bottom line of the county lord's patience was to let her know that although her status was not as noble as the other party's, she was not a soft persimmon that she could manipulate at will.

 Secondly, I want to see what step she will take to get her to leave the capital.

Now that she is willing to bet a pair of bracelets given by the imperial concubine to her, it seems that her staying in Kyoto poses quite a threat to her.

 It seems that she needs to pay more attention to the county lord in the future and find out why she insists on leaving the capital.

Han Yao wrote an IOU to Liu Gui, took the bracelet back, and then asked Ling Chu, "Miss Ling, a pair of bracelets are here. Let's start betting on stones. If you win, the bracelet and these jewelry will be given to you." How about you, I will never regret it?”

Lingchu smiled and reluctantly nodded, "Since the county master wants to bet on stones so much, then I would rather obey your orders and play with you."

 After a pause, he added half-truthfully, "I hope the county leader won't cry if he loses."

“Miss Ling, don't worry, this county master always does what he says.”

 That's all you need to say, I hope you lose later and don't jump over the wall in a hurry.
