Guo Jinnian and Gu Hongwei both gulped in unison, stunned by Tong Yao's remarks. Before, they had indeed agreed to bait Guo Xinpei into handing over the household register and receipts, but these promises were on a whole new level.
Boy, did Tong Yao have a way with words; who talks about giving thousands in betrothal gifts and helping with the construction of new houses and roads???
Honestly, Guo Jinnian herself would feel guilty if she told such lies, but Tong Yao seemed perfectly calm. Guo Jinnian couldn't help but silently applaud her in admiration.
For Gu Hongwei, who wasn't great at crafting tall tales, he listened to Tong Yao with a guilty conscience, let alone repeating them.
At this moment, Guo Xinpei was totally taken in by Tong Yao's words, his eyes shining with excitement, and he was grinning so big it almost reached his ears. Deng Qiuxia was stunned, completely taken by surprise by Tong Yao's generosity.
