The Spirited Daughter-in-law and the Mountain Man-Chapter 795 - : 795 Big Mountain has a crush on her.
Chapter 795: 795 Big Mountain has a crush on her.
She was a stingy person and had no intention of paying Li Rong’er back. Who asked her to be so generous? In her opinion, giving ten cents would have been enough.
So, Lady Mo left, clutching the embroidered handkerchief. She remembered her vegetable basket and turned back to pick it up before leaving.
After this, she had no interest in getting involved with Xiao Yishan anymore.
Only Xiao Yishan and Li Rong’er were left by the artificial hill.
The bright moon hung in the sky, like a crescent.
The artificial hill was stacked like mountains, and the courtyard was beautiful.

In the moonlight, Li Rong’er couldn’t be considered a great beauty, but she had apricot-shaped eyes, peachy cheeks, and a decent figure, qualifying her as a beautiful woman.
Xiao Yishan looked at her sparkling eyes in the moonlight, and when she looked at him, there was admiration in her gaze. He couldn’t help but look away uneasily. He took out one tael of silver from his sleeve pocket and handed it to her, “This is for you.”
She didn’t take it. “Brother Xiao, I gave that money on behalf of Lady Mo. How can I take your silver?”
“But she left the vegetables for my sake; I have a responsibility.”
She shook her head gently, “I still can’t take your money. If I did, I would feel uneasy. Brother Xiao, don’t worry about it.”
“But…”
“No buts. You keep the money.” She reached out with her fair little hand and grasped his open palm, intending to make him take back the money. However, she touched his thick palm and withdrew her hand, blushing, “I… I didn’t mean to…”
Xiao Yishan looked at her blushing pretty face and thought she was a shy woman. “It’s all right.”
Gathering courage, she raised her head to look at him, “Brother Xiao… I…”
“What do you want to say?” Xiao Yishan’s eyes suddenly filled with alertness. He knew Lady Mo came for the Xiao Family’s money. Could she be the same?
She sighed, “Brother Xiao, I saw you reject Lady Mo. She has affairs with many servants in the Mansion. You’re the first man to reject her, and I think you have good character. Before, I always wanted to find a man like you who wouldn’t be swayed by the beauty of women. But you already have a wife. Otherwise, I would have liked to marry you.”
Just as he was about to say something, she continued, “You don’t have to say anything. I know a good man like you wouldn’t do anything to betray your wife. I’m a chaste woman, too, and I wouldn’t lower myself like Lady Mo. After you finish your part-time work at Fang Mansion, you’ll leave. As for me, I signed a living contract. In a few days, my five-year servant contract will be up, and after leaving the Mansion, I’ll marry a good man. You and I will probably never meet again in our lives. Let’s just bid farewell now.”
With that said, she took a deep look at him and walked down the stone path ahead.
Xiao Yishan watched her lonely figure, thinking she wasn’t like Lady Mo, who was a brazen and frivolous woman. She knew how to respect others and had a kind heart, causing him to have a good impression of her.
In a rarely-visited corner of the Fang Mansion, Li Rong’er gave Xing another five hundred cents.
It was actually Li Rong’er who had instructed Xing to deliberately cause trouble for Xiao Yishan and Lady Mo earlier.
Xing counted the money and asked, “Rong’er, you’ve spent one and a half taels to make Xiao Yishan fond of you. Is it worth it?”
Li Rong’er replied, “I don’t know if it’s worth it or not. The renovation work is about to end soon, my contract is expiring, and I’m about to leave the Mansion. This is the quickest way I can think of to get close to Xiao Yishan.”
Xing thought if Xiao Yishan knew about her heavy scheming, he would definitely run away from her as far as possible.
