310 Great Hoodwinker Jiang

“Why do we need to have a written agreement on this?”

Xiaoguo stared at Jiang Danhe with wide eyes. How insulting.

“Sign it or fingerprint it.”

Jiang Danhe’s smile turned into a sinister smile in Xiaoguo’s eyes. It didn’t feel good.

“I’m not going to do that.”

Jiang Danhe seemed to have expected her rejection. He put down his brush unhurriedly. “Then it’s invalid. There’s no time like the present. Let’s get on with it.”

“Wait, wait, wait!” Xiaoguo grabbed her clothes tightly and thought for a few seconds. Then she nodded her head and signed the humiliating contract.

At this moment, Zhuang Zhuang was not at home and he did not return for a long time. Xiaoguo guessed that Jiang Danhe might dare to make a move on her, so she could only sign the contract first. She would find a chance to steal it back and destroy it when he fell asleep.

Perfect!

After thinking it through, Xiaoguo snorted. “So be it.”

Seeing that she had agreed so readily, Jiang Danhe was guessing that she must have something up her sleeves. However, he would deal with whatever came his way.

Xiaoguo wrote her name in big letters and handed it to him boldly. “Here.”

“I’ll let you keep it for a while. I can secretly destroy it later.”

Jiang Danhe ignored her little tricks and checked the contract in front of her. Then, he folded the paper and put it in his undergarments.

Xiaoguo’s eyes widened. “Why did he put it there?!”

After putting it away, Jiang Danhe patted it proudly. With this contract, he could try for a daughter the next time he was back.

“I’ll go look for Zhuang Zhuang.” Jiang Danhe had gotten what he wanted, so he went out to look for the boy.

He knew that he wouldn’t succeed this time. He could only set a trap and force her into it. With this signed contract, he felt much more at ease.

When he arrived at the grain field, Jiang Danhe took out the sesame candy from his pocket and handed it to Xiaohu in front of Zhuang Zhuang. He even reached out and patted his head gently. “Well done!”

Xiaohu chuckled and took the sesame candy before going home. The mission was completed perfectly!

Halfway through, he stopped and turned to look at Zhuang Zhuang guiltily. “I’m sorry, brother. For the sake of my future wife, I have to let you suffer for now.”

After watching him jump away, Jiang Danhe stood up and came to Zhuang Zhuang’s rescue. He was tied to a tree.

Zhuang Zhuang’s eyes widened in anger. The moment Jiang Danhe let go of him, he ran off quickly. “I’ll tell my mother!”

Jiang Danhe was feeling smug at first, but when he heard Zhuang Zhuang’s words, his smile froze on his face. “Oh no…”

“Mother… Mother… Mother… Boohoo… Mother…”

Xiaoguo was washing the pot when she suddenly heard Zhuang Zhuang crying. She was shocked and ran out with a spoon.

She saw Zhuang Zhuang running towards home and wiping his tears at the same time. As he ran, he called out to his mother. When he saw Xiaoguo, he jumped on her.

Xiaoguo put down her spoon and asked him anxiously, “What’s wrong, Zhuang Zhuang? Tell me?”

“Father, Father found someone to tie me up!” Zhuang Zhuang wiped away his tears and took out the rope in his hand for Xiaoguo to see. “Here it is!”

Seeing that there were not many tears on his face, Xiaoguo was not anxious. How had Jiang Danhe provoked him this time?

“Isn’t this the same rope that we use to tie up the cows?” Xiaoguo took the rope and looked at it carefully. Then, she looked at the livestock shed and realized that there was indeed a missing rope.

“It’s this one. Mmph…” Zhuang Zhuang was about to complain when he saw the man coming back from the corner of his eye. Then, he started wailing again.

“…” Xiaoguo covered her ears and took a step back. “Zhuang Zhuang, you are being too dramatic.”

Jiang Danhe walked over quickly and waved his hand innocently. “That’s not what happened.”

“It is. It is!”

Zhuang Zhuang retorted loudly. Xiaoguo’s heart ached for his voice. How uncomfortable it must feel to howl like this.

“Alright, alright. Zhuang Zhuang, stop crying. I’ll ask your father what’s going on now. Go back to the house and wash your face. Go drink some water, okay?”

Seeing that the two of them were about to start glaring at each other again, Xiaoguo quickly separated them.

Zhuang Zhuang nodded. He had no power to resist such a gentle mother. He could only follow her instructions and go into the house.

“What’s going on?”

After Zhuang Zhuang left, she looked at Jiang Danhe. “Why did you provoke him?”

“I didn’t. It was Xiaohu.” Jiang Danhe immediately betrayed Xiaohu.

“Say it again!”

Xiaohu was so close to Zhuang Zhuang. Why would he tie him up?

Jiang Danhe said calmly, “It’s true.”

“…” Xiaoguo took one last look at him and looked like she was about to turn around. “I’ll ask Zhuang Zhuang.”

“No, no, no.” Jiang Danhe immediately stopped Xiaoguo. “I’ll tell you.”

If Zhuang Zhuang was the one to tell her, he might take the chance to defame him. Although he was telling the truth, there was a difference between taking the initiative to confess and being made to confess.

—-

“You actually tricked Xiaohu and convinced him to stall Zhuang Zhuang?”

“Hmmm.”

“If Xiaohu really can’t do it, he can tie Zhuang Zhuang up?!”

“… Yeah.”

“You even prepared a rope for Xiaohu. How considerate.”

“…”

“DId Xiaohu listen to you just for a few sesame candies?”

“… Yes!”

Xiaoguo’s eyes narrowed. Jiang Danhe coughed dryly and said guiltily, “Not entirely.”

“…” Xiaoguo was speechless. “Why is this man so childish?”

“What else is there?”

“And our future daughter,” Jiang Danhe said slowly. Xiaoguo was so shocked that she almost fainted. “What daughter? Whose daughter? Where did this daughter come from…?”

“I asked him to help me with this. Then, I will allow our future daughter to get engaged to him.”

“…” Xiaoguo felt that the word childish was not enough to describe Jiang Danhe at this moment. This fellow was simply ridiculous. He could even talk about something that didn’t exist.

“So you really want Xiaohu to become our son-in-law?”

“Of course not. I can support our daughter—she won’t have to worry about food and clothing until she’s a hundred years old.”

What he meant was that their daughter didn’t have to get married. She just had to stay by their side forever.

Jiang Danhe’s serious tone showed that he meant every word he said.

When Xiaoguo heard this, she couldn’t take it anymore. This man had actually involved three children in his deception. She really couldn’t tolerate this!

“What are you looking for?”

Jiang Danhe didn’t understand why the other party was looking for something while talking. He thought that she had lost something, so he lowered his head to help look for it.

Xiaoguo remained silent. Her eyes were busy searching for something. In the end, she found the rope that was used to tie down Zhuang Zhuang. It turned out that she was still holding it as she had forgotten to put it down in her hurry just now.

Seeing that something was wrong, Jiang Danhe immediately ran back into the room and slammed the door.

Xiaoguo threw the rope down. Luckily he got away fast enough. Otherwise, she would have tied him up too!

At the window, Zhuang Zhuang was afraid that his mother would vent her anger on him, so he quickly lowered the curtain. Gloat was written all over his face. Although he didn’t hear what she was saying, it was really satisfying to watch his mother try to hit his father!

“Stinky Xiaohu, you’re a bad brother. You’re so disloyal! I won’t give you any more candy in the future. I’ll only give it to Sister Xiaohua.”

Zhuang Zhuang swore to himself. Suddenly, his ears twitched and he heard footsteps outside the house. He immediately sat back down on the stool and wiped his face seriously with a wet handkerchief.

On the other side, Mrs. Yang watched as Xiaohu brought back two more sesame candies. The curiosity in her heart was bothering her like an itch that wouldn’t go away.

“Xiaohu, who gave you the candy?”

Just as Xiaohu was about to return to his room after giving one to Xiaohua, Mrs. Yang couldn’t help but ask.

Xiaohu shook his head. He couldn’t tell. He had promised to keep it a secret.

He was about to walk into the house, but after taking two steps, he couldn’t suppress his joy. He turned around and said to her, “Mother, I’m going to have a wife!”

“Huh?!”

Mrs. Yang almost dislocated her jaw. After closing her mouth with her hands, she could tell that he wasn’t joking, so she asked in amusement, “Who is it? How old is she?”

“That’s a secret!”
