Chapter 298 Fell into the Dung Pit

Ruhua frowned, thinking that Chen Zhancai would redeem her and she would be able to live with him in happiness, but she didn't expect the Chen family to be so poor.

But fortunately, Chen Zhancai treated her well, so it didn't matter if she had to eat mixed flour steamed bread every day.

When he heard Liu Fengjiao's words, his face suddenly darkened.

"Sister, I don't like what you said. Since my husband is sure to pass the imperial examination, why do we still need those few acres of broken land? Leave it for you to farm!"

Liu Fengjiao was choked and stunned. "You.....what nonsense are you talking about? I don't know how to farm."

"This is terrible. Since you don't know how to farm, you should listen to your husband and sell the land."

"What if I fail to pass the imperial examination? What will our family eat and drink? Will we have to beg for food?" Liu Fengjiao stared at Ruhua with anger on her face.

Ruhua smiled with the corners of her mouth pulled, "Sister, you are doubting our husband's ability. I am not saying anything bad to you, but look at our husband, he has a big forehead and a round chin, he is born with the appearance of being rich, how could he fail the exam?

Besides, even if he really fails the exam, with my husband's ability, he can easily find a teaching job in town and earn money to support the family. Isn't that better than farming a few acres of land?"

Ruhua's words reminded Mrs. Chen that her son was a scholar, a man of status, and that he could earn two taels of silver a month as a teacher, which was more than enough to support their family. Now she had to fight for her life.

The sadness on her face disappeared and she immediately put on a smiling expression.

"Ruhua is right. I'm going to sell all six acres of land tomorrow. I must bring enough money for my son's journey."

Chen Zhancai smiled immediately, "Thank you, Mom. I knew you loved me the most."

"Why are you being so polite to me? I'm counting on you from now on."

"Don't worry, mother. With your son here, I guarantee you will have no worries about food and clothing for the rest of your life."

Old Mrs. Chen was so beautiful that she almost lost herself. She glanced at Old Man Chen, who had his back to her, and nudged him gently with her foot. "Old man, you have to come with me to find Wu Baoan tomorrow."

"I'm just a useless piece of shit, always talking after the fact. What can I do? You should go by yourself!"

"Look at you, you're so arrogant when I ask you to do something important. If I could sign and seal it, you really wouldn't have to go."

"Whoever wants to go can go, but I'm not going."

Old man Chen was still sulking, and muttered something in a low voice. Although the voice was small, Old Mrs. Chen heard it clearly. She gritted her teeth and stepped forward to grab his ear.

"I'm really giving you face. Let me ask you one more question: are you going with me or not?"

"Ouch~~ It hurts, it hurts." Old man Chen begged for mercy in pain, "Old woman, please let go, I'll go, I can't do it!"

Seeing that the two funny guys were about to fight again, Chen Zhancai shook his head and smiled helplessly.

Just then, he felt the urge to urinate, so he quickly stood up and said, "I have to go out for a while." Then he walked out of the room.

Seeing the opportunity, Dabao quickly hid himself.

Chen Zhancai was in a very good mood at this time. He wished he could take the money and go straight to Ningjing to have a good time.

He hummed some obscene and tuneless music and walked towards the outhouse behind the house.

Seeing him enter the toilet, Dabao followed him with a wooden stick in hand, hoping to hit Chen Zhancai by surprise.

But then he thought again and felt that it was not appropriate. Chen Zhancai was a useless guy who could not even lift anything with his shoulders or hands. How could he withstand such a blow? It would be troublesome if he was beaten to death.

No, it's not worth it to risk a life or death for such a person.

He narrowed his eyes and raised a wicked smile.

It would be better to kick this beast into the cesspool.

This way you can vent your anger without having to worry about getting into a lawsuit.

Thinking of this, Dabao put down the stick he had raised.

Chen Zhancai entered the toilet, fumbled around his waist for a long time, untied his belt, and released himself wantonly...

Seeing that the time had come, Dabao suddenly raised his leg and kicked Chen Zhancai on the butt with all his strength.

Chen Zhancai was holding up his pants with one hand, and tremblingly touching his little bird with the other hand.

Caught off guard, I felt a pain in my butt and stumbled forward a few steps uncontrollably.

But there was a pitch-black pit of manure in front of him. Before he could figure out what was going on, he felt his body go empty and with a "plop", he fell into the pit which was about ten feet deep.

He panicked at first, waving his hands wildly, trying to grab something to climb up, but it was pitch black everywhere, and he ended up getting covered in feces and urine.

He was so dizzy from the pungent stench that he almost fainted in the pit, yelling at the top of his lungs.

"Dad, Mom, Fengjiao, Ruhua, please come and save me! I'm almost suffocating!"

Dabao, who was hiding in the dark, felt happy when he saw Chen Zhancai's miserable appearance. He sneered, turned around and ran out of the yard quickly.

Old Mrs. Chen in the room was about to get up and go back to the room to rest when she vaguely heard Chen Zhancai's shouting. She hurriedly waved to Old Man Chen.

"Go out and see what your son is calling for!"

"Old woman, you know our son's problem. Every time he goes to the toilet, he hums. You don't need to look, it must be because he is angry and feels uncomfortable."

"You're right. Those who know him are furious, while those who don't think he fell into the shit pit!"

Old Lady Chen shook her head and smiled, and then instructed Ruhua who was standing beside her,

"Make Zhancai two raw eggs to drink tomorrow to help him cool down."

"I understand, mother."

As soon as Ruhua finished speaking, Chen Zhancai's cry for help rang out again. She asked again worriedly,

"Mom, I heard Zhancai screaming for help. Could he have really fallen into the shit pit?"

Old Mrs. Chen smiled and waved her hands, "Oh, my dear daughter-in-law, how is this possible? Zhancai is already an adult. If he really falls into the shit pit when he goes to the toilet, he would be a big fool!"

"Mom, you're not right. I have to go out and take a look."

Ruhua walked out quickly, feeling uneasy. She stretched her neck and took a look into the toilet.

"Husband, where are you? Have you finished using the toilet?"

Chen Zhancai was almost suffocated to death. When he heard someone coming, he responded weakly,

"Ruhua, come and save me, I fell into the pit." He said as he stretched out his hands.

Ruhua felt that there was a black thing wriggling in the feces and urine. She was so disgusted that she covered her nose and stepped back.

"Oh my god, husband, how did you really fall into the shit pit?"

"Don't make a fuss, just pull me out now, I'm about to die from the stink."

"Wait a minute, I'll go find someone." Ruhua was so nauseous by the stench that she turned and ran away, "Dad, Mom, come quickly, Zhancai has fallen into the shit pit."

Hearing the shouts, Old Lady Chen trotted out, "What's wrong, Ruhua? What do you think happened to Zhancai?"

"Oh my god, please go to the toilet and check. Zhan has fallen into the toilet and can't get out."
