Chương 48: Chapter 48: Xia Lin's Counterattack Plan

"Oh boy, I see this child is dressed in rags, probably starving. The few eggs of mine altogether cost fifty cents. Let him pay me fifty cents and we'll call it even."

Jiang Nanzhou frowned slightly and glanced at the boy in his hand.

The boy timidly met his gaze, understood what he meant, and said stubbornly, "I don't have any money."

Lu Jingqiu looked at his trousers which were much too short for him, realizing now, with the weather like this, his legs bare inside and only a thin pair of trousers outside.

Looking up at Jiang Nanzhou, she saw he didn't say a word, simply took out fifty cents from his pocket and handed it to the lady, "Ma'am, I'll pay for him. You take this and go buy some new ones."

"This... young man, how could I take your money."

"Ma'am, it seems the kid doesn't have any money to pay you," Lu Jingqiu chimed in from the side.
