Chapter 1058: Spending Money on Grain 2
Lu Jiang stood rooted to the spot, intending to ask his father what he knew, but the latter had already pretended to start snoring.
When Feng Qingxue heard Lu Jiang describe the situation upon his return, she couldn’t help but say, "Dad has already spoken to this extent, it’s not just that he suspects something, he has practically guessed the truth. Ajiang, I think we have no need to hide it from him any longer!"
"So we tell him? But if we tell the old man, it adds another risk," Lu Jiang scratched his head, obviously troubled.
Having a father who is too clever can be quite embarrassing, as there is very little you can hide from his piercing gaze.
After careful consideration, Feng Qingxue spoke in a low voice, "Since we are a family, and Dad is our Sea-God’s Needle, let’s be honest with him, revealing only the space, and not the matter of ’borrowing a corpse to resurrect the soul.’ This latter secret should only be known by the two of us, forever kept in our bellies, not to be leaked even the slightest bit."
Lu Jiang was taken aback, "Qingxue, you..."
He knew better than anyone how secretive his wife was, keeping their own secrets tightly guarded.
"The things in the cellar need to be moved out, and then we have to carry some grain back in. There will definitely be a lot of movement going in and out, and we’ll both end up wasting time and energy. You also said that Dad is not an outsider. Would he go about spreading our secret for all to know? That would be akin to seeking death for our entire family. We just need to warn him not to tell a fourth person," she said.
