The mountain I contracted can connect the past and the present

Chapter 57 What's Wrong with Old Man Sun?

When Yun Xinyue heard these words, she looked at Lan Ci awkwardly and quickly explained to the villagers around her, "Uncles, aunts, grandparents, you misunderstood."

She pointed at Lan Ci and smiled, "He is a tourist who is staying at my house. He is not my boyfriend."

"Besides, he paid me before, so I helped him buy things. It's not what you said."

It was the first time that Lan Ci was mistaken for a gigolo, and he did not feel the slightest bit of embarrassment or awkwardness, nor did he show any dissatisfaction.

His attitude was gentle and polite, showing the good upbringing of a big family everywhere. "Everyone really misunderstood. I am a guest staying at Miss Yun's house. I have paid enough money before."

"This time, I asked Miss Yun to buy things for me. I will pay Miss Yun again when I return."

When the two men spoke, some villagers believed them, while others did not.

"Why do I feel that what Xinyue said is so wrong? Does she sound like what those people who were deceived in the surrounding villages would say?"

"I think what Xinyue said is true. This guy is obviously not one of those pretty boys. How can those pretty boys be so handsome?"

"How can you judge a person by his appearance? You have to look at his character and what he is like."

Yun Xinyue and Lan Ci listened to the villagers around them arguing about this matter. They looked at each other and felt a little embarrassed.

They never expected that buying something would cause such a "sensation".

Yun Xinyue could understand that the villagers said these things to her because they were concerned about her being cheated by a man.

"Uncles, aunts, grandparents, it's really not like that."

She raised her hand to suppress it, and raised her voice slightly, "If he was a gigolo, he wouldn't let me buy these things for him, but would buy him more expensive things, right?"

When everyone heard this, it seemed to make sense.

They see those pretty boys on TV who trick girls into buying them very expensive things in order to drain all of their money.

"Xinyue, you should be more careful. Good looks can't make a living these days." A grandmother kindly reminded, "Maybe he starts by cheating you with small things, and then tricks you into buying him expensive things."

It's a pity that this man looks like a decent person, but he turns out to be such a thing.

Lan Ci felt the strangeness, disdain and disgust in the eyes around him, and touched the tip of his nose. It was really a new feeling.

When he was in his hometown, the people around him looked at him with envy, jealousy, admiration, pity and sympathy. No one had ever looked at him like this before.

Yun Xinyue didn't know whether to laugh or cry, "... Grandma, don't worry. I'm such a money-loving person that I will never let a man cheat me of my money."

"If grandma doesn't believe me, you can always come to my house and see me."

After hearing what she said, everyone felt a little relieved, but they still looked at Lan Ci with a hint of contempt.

"Young people these days, they have hands and feet but they don't know how to find something to do, they actually deceive little girls."

"There are many young people like this now, saying they want to just lie back and enjoy themselves. Why should they enjoy themselves when they are so young? It is time for them to work hard and make money."

The fake smile on Lan Ci’s face could hardly be maintained, and he sighed repeatedly in his heart.

It turns out that being slandered but unable to explain yourself is such a frustrating feeling.

Yun Xinyue, "..."

She had no choice.

Even after she explained it this way, the villagers still didn't believe her, so she could only accept her resignation temporarily.

She shook her head and invited Lan Ci to go shopping in the small supermarket.

She felt a little embarrassed and apologized quietly: "Lan Ci, I'm really sorry. The villagers didn't mean any harm to me. They are just worried about me. Please don't take it to heart."

Lan Ci waved his hand to indicate that he would not do so. His attitude was gentle and kind. "Miss Yun, what are you talking about? I was wrong. Only people in the village would behave like this."

He should have exchanged his gold for some money from Miss Yun before going down the mountain, so that these things would not have happened.

It was due to his lack of consideration.

Yun Xinyue felt relieved when she saw that he didn't take it to heart. "When we get back, I'll exchange some of our currency for you so you can buy what you want."

She should have thought of this sooner.

Lan Ci smiled with a hint of joking in his words, "Miss Yun, if I use the money to buy something, will the villagers think that you gave me the money to save face?"

Yun Xinyue was slightly stunned when she heard this, and then she clapped her hands in sudden realization, "It's really possible."

She pondered for a few seconds and came up with an idea. "How about this? I'll introduce you to a buyer of jade?"

"You can buy something like a jade item, so that you will have enough currency here, and we won't have to worry about what the villagers will say."

Lan Ci considered it and agreed to her proposal, "Thank you for your help, Miss Yun."

Before, he had thought about selling jade and other things here.

However, he did not understand the market conditions here, nor did he know who to sell it to. He also did not want to trouble Miss Yun all the time, so the matter was shelved.

After discussing this matter, Yun Xinyue took Lan Ci, Xing Huai and Old Man Sun to continue shopping in the supermarket.

She is not a person who cares about the looks and attitudes of people around her, so she doesn't take the various looks and pointings from people around her to heart at all. She just chooses the products she needs to choose and buys whatever she needs to buy.

After her parents died in a car accident, those so-called relatives looked at her in various ways and said unpleasant things to her. At that time, she slowly developed a "strong body".

Lan Ci was also a person who didn't care about the attitudes and looks of people around him. In addition, his attention was now on the various commodities in the small supermarket, so he didn't feel the pointing and talking of people around him.

He picked up a bag of finished noodle seasoning and looked at it again and again. Is there anyone selling noodle seasoning here? Can the seasoning for noodle be sold for money?

Lan Ci was concentrating on his research, but Xing Huai and Old Man Sun felt very embarrassed.

Old man Sun, in particular, has long faced pointing and criticism from his fellow villagers, and is very sensitive and concerned about these things.

Now, because of Lan Ci, he was implicated, and a few villagers would talk about him as well.

"I don't think Old Man Sun is a good guy. I've never heard of such a relative in the Xinyue family before, but now he shows up. Maybe he wants to take over everything in the Xinyue family."

"Let's be more careful and not let these bad guys harm Xinyue."

Suddenly, Old Man Sun covered his face and ran out.

"Grandpa Sun!" Xing Huai was the first to notice his situation and quickly chased after him, "Master, Miss Yun, Grandpa Sun suddenly ran out, come and check what happened."
