90s: Koi beauty reborn and became rich

That damned "Mountain Monkey" was actually playing tricks on his wife. A man who doesn't work and is supported by his wife on the surface, but secretly takes so much money from a woman, there must be something else going on.

Lai Wei remained calm, but he had other thoughts in his mind.

He sneered and didn't bother to be polite with Yan Silan. He asked directly, "Did you bring the money?"

While Lai Wei was looking at Yan Silan, Yan Silan was also looking at him.

I heard this guy is a few years younger than her husband, but how come he looks like he's almost 60? Can he capture Yi Congxin?

She glanced at Zhang Baojiang, a hint of suspicion in her eyes.

Yan Silan then looked at Lai Wei and said, "Your price is too high. A little girl is not worth much. I'm not asking you to kill people or set fire to anything. I'm just asking you to get someone."

When she said this, she couldn't hide the contempt in her eyes.

Lai Wei snorted coldly and ignored Yan Silan.

Yan Silan was a little embarrassed and continued to complain, "I say, you are not young anymore, and that girl is young and runs very fast."

Lai Wei glanced her up and down, walked silently to the side, picked up a curled-edge kitchen knife, picked up a piece of raw rotten sweet potato, held it in the air in his hand, and with a few quick cuts, the sweet potato slices flew out like snowflakes.

Zhang Baojiang and Yan Silan watched in amazement, thinking he was showing off his special skills. Unexpectedly, Lai Wei peeled a sweet potato to the root, threw the stem upwards, and slashed it diagonally, breaking the two or three centimeters stem into two pieces.

Lai Wei slashed the knife at the window frame, and the edge cut deeply into the wooden window edge.

The old and rotten window frame trembled, and dust flew everywhere. Yan Silan and Zhang Baojiang turned pale and opened their mouths wide.

"Did you bring the money?" Lai Wei asked again.

Yan Silan couldn't help but take a half step back, hiding behind Zhang Baojiang, tugging at the corner of his clothes, hesitating and not daring to say anything more. After a long while, she finally squeezed out a sentence from her throat: "I brought it, I brought it. 2000 yuan, not a cent less."

Lai Wei glanced at her and signaled her with his eyes to put the money next to the statue.

Yan Silan placed an envelope under the statue with trepidation. Her hand trembled and the envelope accidentally opened, revealing a wad of money inside.

Zhang Baojiang looked at the stack of money reluctantly and swallowed his saliva greedily.

However, he and Lai Wei had agreed to split the profits after the deal was done, so he naturally couldn't say "no" in front of Yan Silan. Lai Wei had just shown off his skills, and his heart was still beating wildly.

"Brother, well, Brother Lai, you are my real brother! With the skills you just showed, don't forget your brothers when you become rich in the future." Zhang Baojiang concealed his guilty conscience and quickly followed up with flattery.

Although he was two years older than Lai Wei, he shouted "Brother" out of genuine fear.

Lai Wei glanced at him and snorted indifferently.

They are really a couple, both cowardly and bad.

"Come back here in five days." Lai Wei was very frugal with his words.

Five days?!

Zhang Baojiang and Yan Silan were shocked.

This time, both of them were shocked by the same thing: this was really too much trouble.

Zhang Baojiang opened his mouth, hesitated for a moment, and then spoke very carefully, "Brother... well, this time is, um... a little long?"

Lai Wei glanced at the couple and said calmly, "If we want to keep this secret, five days is too short. How about ten days? You can come back in half a month."

After saying that, he paused again, raised his chin slightly, and looked calmly at the knife on the edge of the window.

Looks quite... proud.

Yan Silan and Zhang Baojiang just couldn't understand it. Someone who had spent over a decade in a cell, what was there for you to be proud of?!

Although that move just now was quite powerful.

Seeing the couple remained silent, Lai Wei feigned serious analysis, "Tracking her whereabouts and finding the perfect time—don't you think it takes time and effort? Are you two still planning to rush it, only to fail the first time and alert the enemy completely?"

"No, no, no, Brother Lai, just follow your pace." Zhang Baojiang waved his hands repeatedly.

Lai Wei said nothing, but calmly picked up the envelope and rummaged through the money inside.

Good, that’s enough for him to run away.

But before running off...

He glanced at Zhang Baojiang again, and he had to get some more money out of this buddy's pocket.

He didn't expect that money was so needed in today's world.

When he went to prison, he had to use coupons to buy everything. But now, there are no food coupons or cloth coupons anywhere, and only 2000 yuan is not enough to get by.

Before this, he just pretended to be serious and fooled this stupid couple.

During those years in there, he did make some progress. In addition to having honed his cooking and knife skills after working as a cook for more than ten years, he also learned a lot of tricks from other people in the cell.

He was framed and arrested during the "Yan Da" (a crackdown) campaign. Initially, he was angry and wanted to appeal, then he became disheartened and decided that death was better than living, and finally he accepted his fate...

Until he was assigned the job of "cutting vegetables" in the kitchen, he gradually became addicted to cutting vegetables. Only when he was cutting vegetables could he feel at peace.

Slowly, he became better than the other inmates. Later, he was assigned to be the chef and immersed himself in cooking. With the same ingredients, he cooked better than the other inmates.

It seemed like he had found what he wanted to do in his life.

After he got out, he really wanted to be a serious person and do his work.

It’s a pity that a penny can make a hero fall.

Difficult!

Lai Wei hid the money under the statue in the temple. For some reason, he took out two cents and an even older food coupon from a small hole under the base.

The food coupons had expired and could not be used, so Lai Wei put the two cents in his pocket.

By the time he left the temple, the couple had already reached halfway down the mountain.

Lai Wei thought about it and followed.

****************

On the other side, Shen Chen and Zhang Chengjin finally caught up with Yi Congxin and Zheng Donggen. The four of them waited in the mountains for a while and finally saw the shadow of Boss Yang.

Yang Jinfa is... completely soaked?!

I saw him holding a half-thick stick in his hand as a crutch, taking two steps with a breath, and resting three steps after taking two steps with a breath.

However, he actually managed to hold on and catch up.

A smile appeared on Yi Congxin's lips.

It’s hard for Boss Yang.

It seems that Yang Jinfa really wants to get a share of the pie. That's good, she was not wrong.

However, she didn't want to meddle in his affairs and help him.

Everyone, please climb slowly, there are still many hills and bumps ahead.

Just because she doesn't care doesn't mean Zheng Donggen doesn't care.
