Countdown to Awakening

Jiang Wen thought about it and realized it made sense. If he could buy Yingdi out, perhaps things would be better. Chen Jiade was a bit nagging about their past, so even if he went to beg for her, he wouldn't be able to get her, and it would only make Chen Jiade and his mother laugh at him.

He wasn't afraid of being laughed at, but even if he asked Chen Jiade for help, he wouldn't give it to him. If he could pay, he might have a chance of winning.

"Then... then I can only do as you say."

After saying that, Li Weiming took out a small stack of banknotes from another drawer.

"I'll give you this money, and if you can contribute some more, you'll definitely be able to convince Chen Jiade. If he's still not satisfied with this... there's nothing I can do."

There was also some helplessness in Li Weiming's words.

"This money... don't you need it? No, it's already unfair to you that you teach in the village. You haven't saved any money in these years, so you won't have money to marry a wife in the future. I can't take this money. You should save it yourself." Jiang Wen refused.

Li Weiming said, "I just want to teach here my whole life and have no plans to get married. It's good in this village. You're my friend. How can I just stand by and watch you get into trouble? I'd consider myself lucky if I could find someone good to marry, but fate doesn't just happen. Take her now. If you're any later, she'll be thrown into the back mountains. It would be illegal for you to pick her up there."

Jiang Wen didn't say much, but if you think about it carefully, it's true.

"Then consider this money as a loan from you. I will definitely pay you back when the time comes."

"You go first."

After Jiang Wen left, Li Weiming couldn't imagine how he could love someone to such an extent. He just couldn't understand it.

Li Weiming suddenly thought of another person, perhaps she could help Jiang Wen.

Jiang Wen alone is not enough. There must be a statement that can make them believe that Liu Yingdi must be taken away by Jiang Wen before they will let Liu Yingdi go.

After thinking about it, Li Weiming put away his books and put them in the drawer. He left the dormitory, locked the door, and went straight to the school gate.

Jiang Wen pushed the wooden cart to the door of Chen's house.

After making a lot of mental preparations, he finally entered the house.

"What are you doing here? Huh? Did I ask you to come? Get out of here!" Chen Jiade's expression turned bad as soon as he saw him.

"I……"

Before Jiang Wen could say anything, Chen Jiade's mother came out of the room.

She also looked at Jiang Wen with disdain. Wasn't this her daughter-in-law's old lover? He came to her house?

"What are you doing here? Our family doesn't want to see you. Go back!"

"Don't worry, isn't Yingdi already gone? You can't just abandon her to the back hills. She was a respectable person after all, and she died giving birth to your family's child. How can you just abandon her to the back hills? I'm here to buy Yingdi's body from you. I brought some money with me."

Chen Jiade was surprised when he heard this. Who would actually spend money to buy a dead person?

"Oh... I've never heard of you spending money on a corpse. If I didn't know you, I'd think you had some ulterior motive. But why did I sell her to you? My wife can do whatever she wants with her, and it's not your turn as an outsider to interfere!"

It's strange, Jiang Wen too. After all this time, he still likes Liu Yingdi? He even cares about her death? It's a pity that Chen Jiade's wife can't just be given away to someone else. What kind of reputation would this get if it got out?

"I just won't give it to you, so what? What else can you do? She, Liu Yingdi, is a member of my Chen family in life and a ghost of my Chen family in death. Is it your turn, an outsider named Jiang, to interfere? I admit that you like her, but she is my wife."
