Chapter 144: Even five years combined for the two of them is too many (Added)

In retaliation, Fang Meng grabbed the little girl's head with both hands and gave her a good rub.

"Aaaaah, you stinky Fang Meng, you big fatso, stop it, stop it, you're going bald, you're going bald!" Bai Nuo was so angry that she raised her little fist and slammed it forward with her eyes closed.

"I was wrong, I was wrong, I won't do it again, I won't do it again!" Fang Meng quickly let go of the little head and at the same time held the little girl's hands.

"Alright, alright, I can't afford to mess with you. I'll bring you something." Fang Meng pulled the girl into the house, then took out a bankbook from his pocket and handed it to her.

"What?" Bai Nuo subconsciously took it, opened it, and her expression became even more confused.

Fang Meng glanced at the door. It was completely dark outside, and the doors and windows of the neighboring houses were also tightly closed. A little light from kerosene lamps shone from inside. In the instant he expanded his spiritual power and confirmed that no one was watching them, he quickly closed the front door of Bai Nuo's house and then pulled the little girl into the inner room.

Fang Meng looked at the two thick and soft quilts on the kang (heated brick bed), a large cushion against the wall, two different shaped pillows next to it, and a reed curtain with floral fabric trim hanging on the wall. Everywhere exuded warmth and comfort.

Fang Meng raised an eyebrow: "You've made this room quite comfortable."

Bai Nuo proudly raised her chin: "Of course, I can't wrong myself, even if it means wronging anyone else."

“That’s right!” Fang Meng nodded with a smile.

Bai Nuo smiled, pulled Fang Meng to sit down on the chair in front of the desk, turned around and sat on the edge of the kang (a heated brick bed), shaking the savings book in her hand.

What are you doing?

Fang Meng counted on his savings book: "I joined the army at fifteen. In the first year, I only received a monthly allowance of six yuan. In the second year, I was promoted to platoon leader and received a monthly allowance of 57 yuan. In the third year, I was promoted to company commander and received 80 yuan per month. At the end of last year, I was promoted to battalion commander and now I receive a monthly allowance of 101 yuan. Apart from occasional food and drinks and some donations to comrades who have sacrificed their lives and whose families are in financial difficulty, all the money is here."

Bai Nuo looked at the number on the bankbook, 1796 yuan, and blinked: "You've only spent a little over two hundred yuan in the past three years?"

Is it really that economical?

"Heh!" Fang Meng chuckled lightly, looking speechlessly at the little girl. He tapped the savings book with his slender fingers. "There's still over a hundred yuan in here. That's money I spent on gifts for some little girl in Beijing over the past two years."

"Hehe!" Bai Nuo hugged the savings book tightly with a smile, looking at Fang Meng with a cheeky expression, "What are you saying? We're practically family, why are you being so calculating!"

"Tch, you heartless little brat!" Fang Meng rolled his eyes and continued, "Keep the passbook safe. Buy whatever you want in the future. Don't be stingy with money. You'll have money every month from now on, so don't worry about spending it all. I've already transferred this passbook to the post office savings bank here, so you can withdraw the money here."

Bai Nuo was stunned again, looking at Fang Meng with confusion: "Why are you suddenly giving me money? I have money."

Thinking about it this way, Bai Nuo suddenly felt proud; she was much richer than Fang Dadun.

"You have money but you're dressed so drably, and you even risk collaborating with others to sell goods on the black market? Don't worry so much at such a young age. You don't need to concern yourself with money. Just be happy every day." Fang Meng stood up after saying that. He hadn't come with the bankbook to discuss anything; he had just informed this little girl.

"Then what are you going to do?" Bai Nuo asked Fang Meng, holding the bankbook and looking at him with a puzzled expression.

"Don't worry, I have more than one savings account. Even if I run out of money, I can still rely on my parents." Fang Meng turned to the little girl, raised an eyebrow, and smiled with a roguish look.

"But Beijing is quite far from here, so it's not convenient to eat here!"

Bai Nuo assumed Fang Meng was referring to Fang's grandfather, or asking Fang's uncle for money. After all, Fang Meng had done this many times before, and often took her along to eat double portions. Bai Nuo was quite adept at this sort of thing.

"I don't need them for now. It's inconvenient in Beijing, and I'm too lazy to contact my dad." Fang Meng didn't feel ashamed at all about sponging off his parents; he said it very openly.

Bai Nuo: "So what you're saying is..."

Fang Meng: "Isn't there an uncle-in-law in that county? If I don't take advantage of him, he'll be a freeloader. If I ever run out of money, I can just go there for a bite to eat. He can't possibly kick me out. That black market boss isn't someone to be trifled with."

Bai Nuo nodded knowingly: "That's true!"

These two unreasonable people didn't think there was anything wrong with their behavior and words at all; on the contrary, they were both more self-righteous than the other.

Moreover, Bai Nuo often went to the Fang family to swindle money when she was little, so she didn't see anything wrong with Fang Meng now that he was planning to take advantage of his great-uncle.

Ultimately, it was just two scoundrels colluding to do evil, and the only ones who got hurt were a few easily bullied elders in the family.

"Alright, go to sleep early. I won't be going out anytime soon. I'll call you for breakfast tomorrow morning." Fang Meng raised his hand to smooth the girl's hair, then turned and strode out with his long legs.

However, just as he stepped out from behind the curtain in the inner room, he suddenly stopped. Fang Meng then remembered something, turned around, and reached out his hand to Bai Nuo.

"Give me five yuan first. I'm penniless right now, and I feel a little insecure!"

"oh!"

Bai Nuo nodded obediently, got up and put the savings book on the kang (a heated brick bed), then turned around to get her small crossbody bag.

Every day when the system packs her small bag, it also checks her small wallet. If the money in it is almost gone, it will put five yuan in as pocket money. Right now, there is exactly five yuan in it.

"Here, do you want the tickets?" Bai Nuo handed over the money.
