"If you don't give it," Wu Changcai continued, "he will definitely steal it. He's done things like stealing chickens and dogs before, so you really need to secure your money!"
Seeing that Wu Changcai didn't covet her money at all, Wu Lingxi was naturally pleased.
And hearing Wu Changcai remind her to secure her money and talk about her brother, Wu Lingxi was even more delighted. Her brother was always hanging around the town's gambling house nowadays, sometimes not even returning home. Living in that house, she was naturally aware. But no one else had warned her about this—only he did—and she felt that he truly had her best interests at heart.
However, she still didn't want to tell Wu Changcai about the big matter of scheming against Xue Bai.
Wu Lingxi said, "My master's family has become rich, 'a thousand silver' is nothing to them. Changcai, you don't know how wealthy those noble families are; even a thousand silver isn't as thick as one of their leg hairs."
