Upon hearing this, Chen San exploded like a lit firecracker, completely forgetting his injuries. He jumped up and launched into a tirade of accusations.

Mo Qinghe and Gao Yuling simultaneously pulled Su Nanxi back a little, fearing that Chen San, who had suddenly gone mad, might hurt her.

Su Nanxi wasn't incapable of handling Chen San, but she couldn't refuse their good intentions and concerns, so she took two steps back.

Xiao Wu was a little upset that he couldn't stand next to his master, but since someone was protecting his master, he couldn't say anything. Anyway, they weren't far away, and he kept a close eye on them to make sure no one hurt his master!

Fu Mingchuan was just there to join in the fun. He was a spectator who didn't mind making things worse. Anyway, none of the people around him were weak scholars who couldn't even kill a chicken. They were all very capable fighters, so why was he worried?

This strange outfit, I must say, is quite novel and fun. This apprentice's wife certainly has a lot of weird and wonderful ideas!

I've never felt this happy before, I'm going to have a good time!

Yes! Just enjoy the show!

It's rare to see him in such a good mood; he never used to be in the mood to deal with these trivial matters!

If only there were a stool to sit on!

Su Nanxi had no idea what he was thinking. If she did, she would have pointed him in the right direction. He could have just sat down on the ground; that would have looked pretty cool!

Squatting is fine too; that's the standard posture for onlookers!

The group learned some things from Chen San's aggrieved and angry words.

Chen San lost his parents at a young age and relied on his grandmother for survival. She did all kinds of work, no matter how dirty or tiring, just so that she could have food to eat and the two of them could survive.

His early life was indeed very tough and humble, but with Chen San's indomitable spirit and hard work, he gained the appreciation of a merchant by chance, who was willing to take him under his wing and help him. Perhaps heaven finally woke up and began to favor this person who had endured so much hardship and remained strong, and Chen San's life slowly improved.

He would give every penny he earned to his grandmother to keep, and she would keep half for herself.

Unsurprisingly, after some trial and error, Chen San also started trying his hand at business, beginning with the smallest trade and gradually building it up. Eventually, he became capable of handling things on his own and became a merchant himself.

Everything was going well, but fate played another trick on him; he encountered a romantic entanglement!

The rice noodles from Changna Village sell very well, and word has spread to far and wide. Many merchants have smelled the money in them and are willing to travel from afar to buy some and take them back to resell. The purchase price of rice noodles is not very high, but the selling price is much higher. This way, they can make a lot of money!

As a merchant, Chen San naturally needs to keep his ears open to all sides, keep information flowing smoothly, and be good at discovering business opportunities so that he can make big money faster than others!

Seeing how popular rice noodles were, he also had his eye on it. However, his home was far away, and he had a grandmother with mobility issues at home. He usually asked villagers to help look after her. He was worried about leaving her for too long, but he was also unwilling to leave her!

When his grandmother found out, she kicked him out, saying that she was just inconvenient with her legs and could not walk fast, but that she was not disabled and could not get up. She told him to go do what he was supposed to do and not to use her as an excuse to not work all day!

Chen San finally made up his mind, packed his things, and headed to Changna Village, wanting to get back as quickly as possible.

But once he's out the door, when he wants to go back is not something he can decide for himself!

He arrived at Changna Village without any trouble. The villagers of Changna Village, knowing that he was a merchant, treated him with great hospitality.

After learning the purpose of his visit, she enthusiastically introduced him to the group.

Unfortunately, Chen San arrived at the wrong time. A batch of rice noodles had just been sold out before he arrived, and there was hardly any left.

There's no way around it, they're selling too well. The merchants who come aren't buying them by the few kilograms, they're taking them away by the truckload!

This small workshop is working day and night, but it still can't keep up with the sales speed of these vendors!

Because small workshops have already signed contracts with some vendors, they must meet the vendors' needs for a certain quantity over several days. Therefore, vendors who buy on a whim can only take the leftovers.

If you arrive too late and they're sold out, I'm sorry, you'll have to come back tomorrow, or go back to the village to ask. There are smaller, family-run workshops in the village now; they might still have some!

Even smaller than a small workshop, a typical example is the miniature workshop of Qin Youming, the younger brother of the Qin family.

Don't underestimate this small place; the rice noodles they make are excellent. Moreover, Qing Youming is very innovative and has created many different kinds of rice noodles, which are very popular!

However, Qin Youming's rice noodles are exclusively for the special supply and are not sold to others, so you can't buy them even if you want to!

There were others even younger than Qin Youming, all of whom were families working together, sharing the profits, since they were all family and their expenses were all shared.

There are many such family workshops. They are usually large families with a clear division of labor. They can take care of their work at home and in the fields, and they can also make rice noodles without any problems!

Although their rice noodles aren't the best, they still have a lot of customers, so they don't have to worry about selling them. They just wish they could make more!

Chen San arrived a little late, and they all told him to come back tomorrow since there weren't many left.

He thought, since he came all this way, he would still have to come back tomorrow. Running around like this, he might as well find a place to stay for the night, so he wouldn't be too tired and might not be able to get any rice noodles even if he ran back and forth!

Finally, Chen San found a family willing to let him stay at their home. This was the family where he later paid the bride price, but the marriage fell through and he couldn't get the money back!

It was under these circumstances that Chen San met his former fiancée.

That being said, Chen San grew up without parents, so he really doesn't understand anything about relationships. He's just a clueless idiot, but deep down he longs for the feeling of being cared for and loved!

And then he happened to run into a cunning family. Oh no, he was like a lamb entering a tiger's den.

The naive Chen San was deceived emotionally and swindled out of his money!

Ever since Chen San stayed overnight and was teased to the point of losing his bearings, he has slowly started to have bad luck. His business was doing well, but not only did someone always steal his business, he also got into trouble and lost money!

The woman, unaware of this, thought he had a lot of money. Fearing that things might get complicated and the rare catch might slip away, she accelerated the process and had the clueless Chen San discuss the marriage.

Chen San had little experience with women, so he couldn't resist the tempting advances and succumbed. He was already of marriageable age, so he agreed.

So they borrowed money to get engaged!

That's how it is! It's all their fault!

Which family lied to you so badly?
