Chapter 1903 He's Going to Collect Debts

Chen He was not as physically strong as his 'younger brother' and soon fell into a disadvantageous position. Fortunately, his mother was from the Pan family, so he didn't suffer any real loss.

But his hostility hadn't diminished at all; he even threatened to kill the other person.

Just then, Song, Chen He's wife who had been silent for almost the entire day, said with red eyes that she wanted to divorce Chen He and take her son back to her parents' home.

Chen He was stunned; he never expected that such terrible news awaited him upon his return.

Song was determined, as her family was also from Chenggu County. Given Chen Bing and Pan's shrewd nature, they would certainly not choose a family with a poor background when selecting a wife for their son, so the Song family was even better off than the Chen family.

Song was pampered by her family since childhood. Chen He was the only son of the Chen family, and the Chen family's shops and houses would be his in the future. Moreover, she had the Pan family as a powerful backer, so her future would not be bad.

But now Chen He is an illegitimate child, of low social status, how could Song Shi tolerate that?

Not only her, but her family wouldn't agree either.

She couldn't even stay at the Pan family's house anymore, so she took her son and went out to find an inn to stay in, planning to leave early the next morning and return to Chenggu County.

The Pan family was plunged into gloom and despair. When Lu Sanzhu returned after reading the report, Chen He had also fainted.

"So, people still shouldn't do evil, because if they do, their descendants will suffer as well." Of course, Chen He wasn't a good person to begin with.

Lu Sanzhu looked quite moved, which left the old lady speechless. Everyone else could say that, but him…

Shu Yu said, "Song is going back to the county town tomorrow, and Chen He will probably go back too. Third Uncle, why don't you accompany Grandma and Aunt to the county town to collect the debt tomorrow?"

"Collecting debts?" Lu Sanzhu exclaimed excitedly, "I'm willing to do that."

He had originally planned to stay in the city for a couple more days, but now that he had encountered something he was more interested in, he agreed without hesitation.

He's only ever been the one being chased for debts in his life; he's never arrogantly gone to someone else to collect debts. It must have been very satisfying.

Therefore, the next day, Lu Sanzhu hitched up the carriage in the backyard early in the morning.

This time, only Lu Erbai and Lu Sanzhu, along with the equally enthusiastic Da Bao, went back with them. As for Shu Rui and Er Niu, they had seen enough of the excitement these past two days. Since they were on a trip, they couldn't just focus on gossip.

Now that they've arrived in the prefectural city, and Shu Yu doesn't plan to go back for the time being, they've decided to stay and explore the city, learning about its customs and culture.

Shu Yu saw the old lady and the others out of the city gate. She had Ying Dong follow them the whole time. With people like him and Yuan Gui who were skilled in martial arts, there was no need to worry about them being bullied.

"If you encounter any problems that you can't solve, go to the county government office and find Magistrate Tang."

"I understand, Ayu, you can go back now." The old lady waved her hand and lowered the carriage curtain.

The two carriages left one after the other. Zhou Tiedong and his group were in the second carriage and went home together.

As the carriage drove further and further away, Shu Yu let out a breath. Just as she turned to return to the city, she saw the Chen family's carriage coming towards her.

Sitting on the carriage shaft was Chen He, who looked haggard and had a gloomy expression. He also saw Shu Yu and immediately showed a look of hatred.

Shu Yu gave a half-smile, and Chen He immediately looked away, not daring to look at her again. Ultimately, her status was beyond his reach; unless he wanted to die, it was best to stay as far away as possible.

Chen He quickly drove towards Chenggu County.
