Chapter 505 Lost out
"Mother, how can you doubt me? Your good son, I really didn't lie. If you don't believe me, you can go ask Aunt Wu." Chu Jin was very confident, not feeling guilty at all. He wasn't stupid he deliberately sold the bracelet at a higher price to prevent Wu Huzi from regretting it, so naturally he needed a witness.
The fact proved that this decision was very correct.
Glancing surreptitiously at his mother, who didn't seem angry anymore, he breathed a sigh of relief.
It seemed that his mother was worried he would get into trouble, not truly upset about him selling the bracelet, Chu Jin thought to himself.
With this understanding, Chu Jin felt relieved and in a better mood than ever. As long as his mother wasn't angry, he could focus on developing his hobbies. Thinking about how soon he would be able to exchange his saved silver for gold, he felt excited.
"This matter cannot be left like this." Ye Muyu stood up and tapped the ruler.
Chu Jin's relieved heart was suddenly lifted again feeling like he had been too happy too soon.
Sure enough, the next moment, he heard Ye Muyu say softly, "Since you don't want the bracelet then return the money to mother."
"Come on, Ziluo, take mother to find your brother's money box!"
"Ah, mother, please don't hit me!" Chu Jin hurriedly chased after her and hugged her legs, wailing.
Seeing him like this, how could Ye Muyu agree? She forcibly took Chu Ziluo and found the wooden box where Chu Jin had hidden his silver.
She left Chu Jin with only ten copper coins, confiscating the rest.
Seeing his supposedly well-hidden secret stash of money being found, Chu Jin was momentarily stunned. He murmured, "This is impossible, I hid it very well how did mother find out?"
At this moment, Ye Muyu had already left with the money box in her arms.
Chu Ziluo, still in the room, sighed softly after hearing her brother's words and shook her head. "Brother, do you really think mother doesn't know that you're saving silver?"
"I don't believe it. Next time, I'll find an even better hiding place and mother definitely won't find it." Chu Jin said defiantly and patted his chest to assure her.
Glancing at her silly little brother, Chu Ziluo raised her eyebrows and smiled, "Alright, I bet mother will still find it next time."
"Humph, this time I'll find a safer place and mother definitely won't find it!" Chu Jin said indignantly.
Seeing her brother's attention clearly diverted, Chu Ziluo asked curiously, "Brother, now that your money has been taken, do you still have any left to hide?"
"Don't mention my sadness, I'm so sad." Chu Jin immediately put on a sorrowful expression.
Chu Ziluo was slightly surprised, "Are you really sad?"
Chu Jin had already started counting on his fingers, "I was only one silver coin and five copper coins away from exchanging for a small piece of gold!"
"It looks like I'll have to start saving again."
"Oh right, sister, remember to remind me earlier next time. This time was a mistake, I didn't expect mother to be so ruthless. Luckily, she left me ten coins." Chu Jin was happy and then sad in turns.
"My throat is sore from coughing, but I didn't see you listening." Chu Ziluo rolled her eyes.
Chu Jin waved his hand, "Sister, you don't understand. This time I made a mistake but I definitely won't make the same mistake next time."
"Then you better be careful next time." Seeing her brother's thick-skinned nature, Chu Ziluo didn't believe he could fool their mother. It was just their mother deliberately indulging him. But seeing her brother gradually forget about this incident without making their mother angry, she felt relieved.
It turned out that her brother just liked shiny things, like gold, and wasn't really greedy.
