Chapter 132 Again Criticizing Fate (2)_1

"This must have cost quite a bit," Qian Xiabai set down the tobacco, truly reluctant to refuse such an offer.

He had been abandoned at the entrance to the village at birth, raised on the generosity of numerous families. As an unregistered person with no land, nobody wanted to share their life with him. He had remained single and later learned some skills, but they were just enough to get by. Generous people like the Ruanlin Family were rare; just asking for a date was rewarded with a pound of meat, while others would simply give some grain or coarse rice.

This time, they had even given him two pounds of tobacco...something he absolutely couldn't afford to buy himself.

His hand trembled slightly as he caressed it, and when he touched something else, he felt the gifts were too valuable.

Just as he was about to say he couldn't accept them, the lady of the Ruanlin Family spoke first, "Brother Qian, don't be too hasty to refuse. I truly have something I need to ask of you this time."
