“Big Brother, you are well informed! I just bought the pagoda and you’ve known it so soon.” Xiao Jingting sneered.

“There are not many big customers like you, brother. So that people are pleased to talk about it, and naturally the news spreads fast,” said Xiao Qingyan.

Xiao Qingyan said to himself, ‘Xiao Jingting bought the magic tool in installments, and he must count on his parents to pay the rest. If his parents do not pay the money, Xiao Jingting will be caught by the store and go to prison. Of course, his parents will not stand by without doing anything. His monthly allowance from the parents is only five or six pieces of spiritual jade, one or two thousand taels of silver, which adds up to about three thousand taels of silver.

Xiao Jingting have to pay back ten thousand taels of silver every month to buy the magic tool. Is Xiao Jingting going to force his parents to spend money on him by buying the tool? It’s unacceptable.’

Wang Lu looked at Xiao Jingting and sighed, “Jingting, you are too immoderate. How can you spend so much money? How do you plan to pay back your silver later on?”

Xiao Jingting said slowly and gently, “I am going to ask father and mother to give me some farmland. When I was in Mound Village, I was used to working at sunrise and retiring at sunset. I am not used to the life as I have nothing to do these days. Mother, you give me a few pieces of farmland, so I can farm the land and pay back the money.”

Xiao Jingting said to himself, ‘At first, the original body owner’s aunt even gave him a lot of farmland when he was expelled. As the parents of the original body owner, they cannot be stingy.’

“Do you want some farmland? The farmland of Xiao’s Family is located outside the city, which is not close to home!” said Wang Lu.

Xiao Jingting nodded and said, “I know that. Once I have some farmland, I will take Muan and my son to build a house and live there. My son is too wild. He is not going the right way with the two sons of my eldest brother. I am afraid he will fight all day if he stays here in Xiao’s Family, which will be a problem.”

What Xiao Jingting said was not expected by Wang Lu, who was astonished to hear that, “Are you going to move out?”

Xiao Jingting nodded and said, “It is better to move out and take care of the farmland. Since I went out this time, I have found that I have a good talent in farming. If I work harder, I believe that I can manage to pay back the money. In fact, the down payment of 30,000 taels of silver is earned from farming.”

A look of shame came over the face of Xiao Linfeng, and Wang Lu was also eased down.

Xiao Qingyan frowned with a cold sniff and said, “Third Brother, do you think everyone is a fool? You are just a level 5 Qi practitioner, and you were much lower before. How can you earn so much money from farming? You sold out all the items of Heaven Wealth and Land Treasure you have found, didn’t you?”

Xiao Jingting threw his eyes on Xiao Qingyan and said, “I did sell some items of Heaven Wealth and Land Treasure, but most of the money were earned from farming.”

Xiao Qingyan ignored the last part of what Xiao Jingting said. Hearing that Xiao Jingting really sold some items of Heaven Wealth and Land Treasure, he became furious, “You really sold some treasures. What’s wrong with you? How dare you did this!”

Xiao Jingting took it for granted and said, “I had no money, and I had to sell something. According to the rule, I would pay a fine of silver of a month for the superior farmland given by my aunt if it was wasted for one month, and I had to pay much money as it had been deserted for a long time. I would not have paid the fine if I had not sold some items of Heaven Wealth and Land Treasure.”

Xiao Jingting looked innocent as he turned to Liu Xian as a bystander.

Liu Xian had been enjoying what was going on. She felt embarrassed as Xiao Jingting blamed on her.

Wang Lu threw her eyes full of hatred on Liu Xian.

Liu Xian smiled awkwardly and said, “Jingting, what did you say? Was the farmland deserted when you got it? How could such good farmland be deserted? I know nothing about it!”

“I had to pay a fine for the deserted farmland, and there are monster beasts who often haunt the farmland. Aunt, you must be cheated to give such farmland to me. I’m lucky to have the help of Second Brother, otherwise the farmland would have been destroyed by the monster beasts even it is planted with spiritual plants,” said Xiao Jingting coldly.

Wang Lu sniffed with an even worse look on her face.

“Aunt, how can you give such farmland to me? I was cheated by Hou’s Family for the farmland. They took two thousand taels of silver from me. Aunt, please remember to give this money to me! You have been cheated into giving me such farmland, and being your nephew, I had to pay so much money for you. It is unfair!” said Xiao Jingting righteously.

Under Wang Lu’s stares, Liu Xian could only make a promise, “This is my fault. I will pay the money for you.”

Liu Xian gritted her teeth. At first, she was complacent to transfer the farmland to Xiao Jingting, which would be fined. She did not expect Xiao Jingting to ask her for the money.

Xiao Jingting was gratified to hear what his aunt said. In fact, he only paid a fine of one thousand and five hundred taels of silver. Xiao Jingting asked more for five hundred taels of silver. Two thousand taels of silver did not mean a lot for Xiao Jingting now, but this was also a big money.

Xiao Qingyan didn’t care what Xiao Jingting had experienced in Mound Village. He only cared about Heaven Wealth and Land Treasure.
