In the evening, Zhao Jinbao left Widow Lee's house and on the way home, the villagers all took the initiative to greet him. Especially the villagers' families who were poisoned in the morning, their faces were no longer cold. When they saw Zhao Jinbao, they passionately pulled his hand, their mouths full of words of thanks.

Feeling the enthusiasm of the villagers, Zhao Jinbao was happy in his heart. At the same time, he was filled with gratitude towards the dragon pearl. If it weren't for the dragon pearl, he wouldn't have such a chance encounter in his life, and the originally dark world wouldn't have been so radiant.

When he was passing by Xia Xiaohee's house, Zhao Jinbao suddenly thought of something. Coincidentally, Xia Xiaohee's mother Cheng Xia walked out from her house and saw Zhao Jinbao.

"Yes, Auntie Xia. Is Uncle Xia feeling better? " Zhao Jinbao replied.

"Haha, it's much better now. Thank you so much for today. Do you want to come in and have a drink of water before leaving?"

"That's fine, I have something to talk to Uncle Xia about."

After Cheng Xia entered the room, Zhao Jinbao heard Xia Xiaohee and Xia Kangcheng's voices, but from their tone, they seemed to be arguing about something.

Hearing the noises coming from outside, the people in the room stopped arguing. Xia Kangcheng walked out first, and then Xia Xiaohee. However, the corners of his eyes were red, it was obvious that he had just been crying.

"Oh, Jin'Bao is here, sit inside. Xiaohee, what are you standing there for, quickly go and get some cold water. " Xia Kangcheng knew that Zhao Jinbao had saved him, so his words were very polite.

"Haha, Uncle Xia, there's no need. I'll leave soon. I just want to ask if your family has any fishing nets or not. Recently, I haven't been doing anything at home, like loading some fish." Zhao Jinbao stated his intention for coming.

"There's no need for that. If you want to use it, just use it." Xia Kangcheng said quite straightforwardly, but he also reminded Zhao Jinbao, "Entering a treasure, our Shuangqiao Village location is not good, don't look at how many rivers there are, but these rivers do not have any living things, it's impossible for us to get anything down there."

What Xia Kangcheng said was the truth. If such a large village like this could really get things from the river, how could it be possible that no one would get them? Xia Kangcheng had already bought this fishing net for several years already, and every year, there would be no goods for it to sell. The other people in the village did the same. After a while, no one thought about Shuangqiao Village anymore.

Indeed, the rivers surrounding the village were all artificially dug irrigation rivers. Normally, when the water was dried, not a single drop of water would be found. Only when the farmland needed irrigation would the water be reclaimed. How could a fish survive under such a method? Right now was the time to irrigate the water. Xia Kangcheng thought that Zhao Jinbao wanted to take advantage of the situation when there was an underwater fish to catch, hence he kindly reminded his.

Zhao Jinbao understood what Xia Kangcheng meant, and understood the logic behind it. However, he did not want to leave it under the water of these rivers, as his goal was the biggest irrigation canal.

"Hehe, Uncle Xia, I left it in the irrigation ditch."

"Irrigation canals? The water was flowing over from other places, passing by the Shuangqiao Village station, and then the next village. Such a living water wouldn't be able to store any fish, unless a large river rose and flooded their pond, bringing out a portion of their fish, otherwise, it wouldn't be easy to catch them. It's not worth it to go back and forth. " Xia Kangcheng had clearly suffered before, so he spoke clearly.

"I just want to give it a try. If I can't catch it, then so be it. Since I'm free, I might as well do it." Zhao Jinbao laughed.

"I'll give it a try. Just you wait, I'll find a gunny sack and give you the fishing nets and earth cages."

Xia Kangcheng immediately stuffed all the things related to fish flapping into his gunny sack. After doing all that, he prepared to return home, but before he went out, he secretly gave Xia Xiaohee a hand signal and waited for her outside the wall.

Xia Xiaohee understood what Zhao Jinbao meant. After a minute, he sneaked out from his house to look for Zhao Jinbao.

Just now, they had met, Zhao Jinbao had pulled Xia Xiaohee's hand and pulled her into his embrace, and said: "Did you miss me, at your house just now, why didn't you look at me?"

"Let go, my parents are home, don't let them see us." Xia Xiaohee struggled in his embrace, but she wasn't as strong as Zhao Jinbao, so doing anything was futile.

"At home, I'm not afraid of them seeing me. Do you believe that I can go in and tell them that we're the same person?"

"Don't, don't say it." Xia Xiaohee believed it and was so anxious that she was about to cry.

"Hehe, I'm just teasing you. Why do you take it so seriously?" Zhao Jinbao quickly let go of his hands and looked at Xia Xiaohee whose eyes were completely red. He said with a bit of heartache: "Just now, when I was going to your house, I heard you and Uncle Xia arguing, what happened?"

Xia Xiaohee looked at Zhao Jinbao, and tears flowed down her face. Zhao Jinbao helped her wipe them away and asked: What's going on? "Don't cry. Tell me and I'll help you deal with it."

"It's like this. In the evening, my dad told me that Ding Yu would be coming to the village in two days, so I told him what we heard in the town. But he didn't agree, saying that he wanted me to follow him since he accepted Ding Yu's gift." Xia Xiaohee said while crying.

"Ding Yu is just a beast. How can Uncle Xia not care about your life. You can just withdraw after receiving the betrothal gift."

"My dad said that the betrothal gift has already been used. Why aren't you going back?"

"How much is it? The money I paid you back last time is still here, if it doesn't work, then I'll use that money to pay you back. "

"Ten …" "One hundred thousand!"

"What?" "So many?" Even if it was Zhao Jinbao, after hearing this number, he was also shocked. In the countryside, how could there be so much money for the gift?

"Then how did Uncle Xia use it?" What Zhao Jinbao wanted to know was how Xia Kangcheng, who didn't want to bet, managed to spend all of these.

Xia Xiaohee told Zhao Jinbao about what happened. It turned out that Xia Kangcheng had once gone to town and crashed into a car that was parked by the side of the road. The taillights were broken and the owner of the car called the police.

To Xia Kangcheng who was born in the countryside, a hundred thousand would definitely be an astronomical number. However, if he could not compensate Xia Kangcheng, he would have to detain him until he had paid off the money. Although it was called detention, to Xia Kangcheng, it was equivalent to a life imprisonment.

Just as Xia Kangcheng was returning home to raise money, the matchmaker from the town found him. Xia Kangcheng, who was in a crisis, did not think too much and agreed to marry the matchmaker.

Listening to Xia Xiaohee's story, Zhao Jinbao felt that something was off. Three Springs Town was not a very expensive place. There was a car with a taillight that was worth a hundred thousand gold coins, and all the cars now had car protection, so it shouldn't be too much of a loss. The Xia family didn't understand this, but Zhao Jinbao did.

"Alright, I understand. This is what I'll think of. First, let Uncle Xia do what he wants. Leave everything to me."

"Okay." At this time, Zhao Jinbao was Xia Xiaohee's backbone, and whatever he said was what he wanted to say.

"I'm going home. Don't you want to say something before we go home?" Zhao Jinbao said with an evil smile.

Xia Xiaohee shyly lowered her head. Zhao Jinbao used his hand to lightly pull her chin, and then kissed Xia Xiaohee's cherry lips.
