Chapter 1546: Calculating with the Door-Knocking Third Aunt (Part 1)

Ou Pengfei could tell from everyone’s expressions what they were thinking. But since they didn’t say anything, he couldn’t just explain outright.

Old Lady Qu looked at Ou Pengfei and asked, "Did you arrange for them to live there?"

Her question gave Ou Pengfei an opportunity to explain on behalf of Mengyu and the others.

He shook his head, "It was my future cousin-in-law who chose to live there. She said it was safe. Moreover, I offered to pay for them but she refused, insisting on paying me a hundred million G coins to convert and use temporarily."

Everyone immediately understood that they weren’t using the Ou Family’s money to stay in the most luxurious hotel.

Old Lady Qu turned to the Master: "It seems Xuexue, our soon-to-be daughter-in-law, is quite wealthy."

"Of course," Ou Pengfei said confidently. "Without money, how could she casually give away a valuable Amulet worth millions to Fu Miao, saving his life?"

He recalled how at the Gu Family, Mengyu had given each person such a Protective Spirit Jade.

Third Aunt Qu’s eyes were fixed on the Spiritual Jade Pendant, clearly envious: "Can I take a look?"

Ou Pengfei wanted to say no, but he knew that if he did, Third Aunt would surely complain to his father when he returned.

He could only hand the Spiritual Jade Pendant over.

After looking at it for a while, Third Aunt Qu liked it more and more: "Pengfei, your third aunt is born under the ox sign, how about gifting this Spiritual Jade Pendant to me?"

Pengfei knew that once any good item was in the hands of Third Aunt, it would be difficult to retrieve.

He quickly said, "Third Aunt, I spent a hundred million Yuan to buy this."

"So expensive?" Third Aunt Qu was skeptical.

"Think about it, this treasure not only nourishes the body, but can also save a life at a critical moment. Having it is like having an extra life. Do you think it isn’t worth a million Yuan?"

Third Aunt wanted it but hesitated considering the cost.

Besides, if it were just small trinkets from younger members, it would be fine for an elder to ask, but something worth millions, she couldn’t just take.

But, taking out a million Yuan was equivalent to over seven hundred million G coins, which she couldn’t immediately come up with.

Seeing Third Aunt’s expression, Ou Pengfei said, "If Third Aunt wants it, just let me choose ten items from Third Uncle’s antique collection."

Third Uncle loved collecting antiques, especially those from before the Han Dynasty. The Master mentioned seeking old artifacts, not necessarily very valuable ones. Third Uncle’s collection was just right.

Third Aunt deliberated a moment, "Your Third Uncle would kill me."

"I promise not to take those valuable Yuan Blue and White pieces."

"But—"

Ou Pengfei reached for the Spiritual Jade Pendant in her hand, "Since Third Aunt is reluctant to part with the antiques, let’s forget it."

"Alright, alright, exchange it then. Just promise not to take the Yuan Blue and White," Third Aunt Qu was so fond of the Spiritual Jade Pendant that she had no choice but to agree.

Ou Pengfei shouted inwardly: Yes!

He’s been worrying about where to find antiques for the Master, and Third Aunt came through. Normally, she’s the one taking advantage of others, but today he’s taking advantage of Third Aunt.

Ou Pengfei went with Third Aunt to select antiques, leaving a bunch of people staring at one another. Eventually, everyone looked at Ou Zhen: "Zhenzhen, is your future cousin really amazing?"

"Zhenzhen, how did your cousin know Fu Miao’s car had been tampered with?"

"Zhenzhen, can your cousin tell fortunes?"

"Zhenzhen, I heard that your cousin grew up in the countryside, is she a country bumpkin?"
