Switched Marriage The Coddled Little Wife novel Chapter 60

Chapter 60: Chapter 60 Never Dreamed of in Two Lifetimes

Lin Jiayi thought about how Li Guangyuan in her past life had also started from a small business and gradually made it big. She didn’t know what kind of business Lin Chuxia and he had started, but considering the Li Family’s circumstances, it couldn’t have been a big business. Perhaps it really started with selling vegetables. Thinking this, she nodded, "Well, it’s agreed then, once you have some capital, you’ll expand the business."

"Definitely, we will become wealthier and wealthier."

Lin Jiayi believed this; she had seen Li Guangyuan when he was prosperous.

Thinking of something, she extended a hand, "Then return the money I originally gave you. Selling vegetables doesn’t require much capital, the leftover money should stay with me. I still need to buy some fabric to make a cotton dress."

Li Guangyuan was momentarily stunned, then he pulled her into his embrace, "Jiayi, it’s like this, the vegetable selling business doesn’t need much initial capital. I can frequently travel to the county on the day after tomorrow. I definitely need to buy a bicycle, and luckily Li Ergou is willing to sell his bicycle to me, so I bought it."

Lin Jiayi’s voice raised a couple of notches, "That bicycle outside, you bought it from Li Ergou’s family? How much?"

She recognized that bicycle; it was the one Li Guangyuan rode when he married her.

She thought it belonged to the Li Family, but a few days ago, Li Ergou took it back.

Li Guangyuan just brought it back, she thought maybe after finishing the work in the field, Li Guangyuan was going to take her to the county for a stroll, that he borrowed the bicycle for this purpose.

It was previously agreed that after fertilizing the corn, he would accompany her to the city to get fabric.

Li Guangyuan weakly held up a finger, "One hundred yuan."

"One hundred yuan?" Lin Jiayi sprung to her feet, "One hundred yuan for an old bicycle? Do you know how much a new bicycle costs?"

Of course, Li Guangyuan knew, "Nowadays, bicycles are not that easy to buy, we don’t have any connections to get a bicycle ticket. Even for a used bicycle, many people are unwilling to sell. It’s just that Li Ergou and I have a good relationship, his family agreed to sell the bike to me. I finally found a way to make money, we can’t just give up because of the bicycle, can we?"

Lin Jiayi looked reluctant, "Even so, you should still have one hundred yuan on hand, give me seventy."

The Li Family’s bridal gift to her was taken by the two daughters of the Li Family, her new cotton dress was still unresolved. Initially, she thought of buying it when Li Guangyuan made money from the business. Now it’s simpler; the vegetable business doesn’t need much capital, so she’ll get the fabric for her new cotton dress first.

Li Guangyuan’s eyes flickered, he coughed lightly, "Jiayi, it’s like this, when we got married, to gather your bridal gift, my family borrowed fifty yuan. Recently, when that family urgently needed money, they came to our house to collect the debt, so I paid them back first."

Lin Jiayi was truly upset now, "Li Guangyuan, do you know what you are talking about? You actually used my money to fill the gaps of the Li Family? That was my bridal money, intended for investing in your business, and you spent it without even consulting me?"

She pushed Li Guangyuan away, her eyes almost red with anger, "I don’t care, you must get that money back for me, every single penny."

Li Guangyuan lowered his eyes to hide a hint of dissatisfaction, then lifted his face again, appearing pitiful, he took Lin Jiayi’s hand and placed it on his face.

"Jiayi, I know I did wrong. If you are angry, slap me twice, it’s my lack of capability that made me resort to using your bridal money. What can I do? I’m my mother’s only son, and it was borrowed for our marriage. If I don’t pay it back, who will? I originally planned to get the business up quickly and use the profits to repay the debt. Little did I know things would turn out this way, and I ended up using your bridal money. I’m truly incapable."

He held Lin Jiayi’s hand, and gave himself a hard slap.

Lin Jiayi pulled her hand back, already having calmed down significantly by the time he admitted his fault.
