Chapter 903 Matchmaker Visits (1)
Mo Yan had no reason not to agree and said with a smile, "Uncle Lv, once the small detached courtyard is finished, just move into whichever one you fancy. This is your niece’s way of showing her filial respect."
"Haha, building a small detached courtyard will cost at least five hundred taels of silver. You, girl, are letting Uncle Lv choose without even blinking an eye; you’re very generous indeed. Just don’t regret it when Uncle Lv moves in and you find it hard to part with your silver," Master Lv said, delighted by her earnestness, and couldn’t resist teasing her.
Mo Yan pretended to be a miser, saying with a vexed expression, "Well... then, please, Uncle Lv, put in a little more effort to make the small detached courtyard beautiful. When it’s done, we can fleece the wealthy, and then won’t we earn the silver back?"
Master Lv was stunned for a moment and then said, with a laugh and a cry, "Just as I thought, taking advantage of you isn’t easy at all. Look at this, the small detached courtyard isn’t even in our hands yet, and Uncle Lv has to start with hard labor! Sigh, after all is said and done, it’s Uncle Lv who’s at a loss."
"That’s right, there’s no such thing as a free lunch in this world," Mo Yan said, blinking earnestly and not the least bit embarrassed by her words.
She knew in her heart that even without saying these things, Master Lv would surely do his utmost on the project of the small detached courtyard. She spoke this way because she wanted to give him one as a token of appreciation. Later on, refusing Master Lv’s silver would also be done with good reason.
Master Lv sighed helplessly and looked at Mo Yan with an especially gentle gaze, "You girl, truly... really leave Uncle Lv at a loss for words!"
