Seeing Yuan Xiao'e's unhappy expression, Cai Junze said, "Xiao'e, she is my mother after all. I can't doubt her like this. Besides, we don't have any real evidence. It's not good to make such suspicions!"
Yuan Xiao'e turned her head away and said, "Forget it, whether you want to listen or not! Anyway, this is your business!"
Then he said, "Regarding our marriage, you'd better think of a foolproof solution! As for earning money? Humph, can you earn the bride price my family requires in such a short time?"
Cai Junze frowned.
Sixty-six taels is indeed not easy to earn!
But, how will you know if you don’t try?
"Xiao E, you have to believe me, I will definitely earn this money!" Although he himself was not confident, he could not be unconfident in front of Xiao E.
"Then go and earn it!" Yuan Xiao'e's eyes flashed with disappointment, "But if you can't earn it, I won't wait for you!"
After saying that, he pushed him out of the yard and closed the door!
Seeing Yuan Xiaoe's disappointed look on his face, Cai Junze couldn't help but doubt his decision.
Can I really earn this betrothal gift?
How to earn it?
How long will it take?
In addition, if the mother does not pay a penny and relies on herself, in addition to the betrothal money, she also has to earn money for various expenses needed for the wedding!
Therefore, if he really wants to marry Xiao E, he needs to earn more than sixty-six taels!
At least, seventy taels, right?
Just thinking about it gave him a headache!
On the way back, he unexpectedly ran into the young thugs he had met a few days ago.
"Hey, Cai Junze!"
They surrounded him and said, "Although we didn't succeed last time, you still have to pay us a little money, right? After all, we worked hard for you, so we can't get nothing in return, right?"
Cai Junze emptied his pockets and said, "See, I really don't have any money! Not a penny!"
Then he said, "If I wasn't short of money, why would I ask you to play such a show with me?"
Seeing that he really couldn't pay, not a cent, the young men looked at each other in bewilderment. The leader said, "Okay, when you have money, we'll come back to ask for it! It won't be much, but at least give me one or two taels of silver!"
Having said that, he patted his shoulder and left.
Cai Junze: “…”
Well, I didn’t get my mother’s money, and now I’m actually in debt!
One or two taels of silver, just listening to the amount, is not much for him.
But, he is penniless now!
A penny can make a hero fall!
After a busy day, Liu Shulin came back from town. When she entered the yard, she saw Cai Junze sitting under the eaves, looking like he was deep in thought and was surprisingly quiet.
She walked over and asked, "Have you gone out to earn money today? Have you found any way to make money?"
Hearing the question, Cai Junze came back to his senses, looked at her, and replied: "I'm still thinking about it."
His eyes rolled around, and he continued, "Mom, how about you hand over the shop to me and let me manage it? I'll take half of the profits, how about that?"
This was just a sudden idea for him!
Liu Shulin glanced at him coldly and said, "Dream on! I've spent over ten years building up this store's reputation. It's not easy to come by! If I hand it over to you now, I'm afraid you'll ruin it in no time!"
"Besides, you've only been to the store to help out once, and you don't understand a lot of things. How can you run the store?"
"Can you make buns again?"
“Can you manage a shop?”
"None of them, right?"
She would not hand over the Yuanshan Baozi Shop to him!
At least, not now!
"If you want to make money, find another way!"
"Don't think about our bun shop!"
Liu Shulin sternly warned him!
Then ask: "Is dinner cooked?"
Cai Junze said lazily: "Not cooked yet."
Liu Shulin glared at him and said, "You were so active yesterday, but just one day has passed and you're already paralyzed and don't want to move?"
The next moment, her voice became serious:
"Go cook for me!"
"Otherwise, you won't have dinner tonight!"
Cai Junze said "oh" before hesitantly getting up and reluctantly going to the kitchen.
He had no money and had to eat at home.
In this case, I can only let my mother do whatever she wants.
The next day.
"What are your plans for today?"
After breakfast, Liu Shulin asked her son.
"I'm going to go out and see if there is any way to make money." Cai Junze said.
"I don't care what you do, but stay away from things like robbery, theft, and murder!" Liu Shulin said to him in a warning tone.
"I know!" Cai Junze nodded, "Mom, I won't do these things!"
"That's good to know!" As long as her son doesn't do anything that violates the law, she won't care how he makes money.
"Mom, can you give me some money?" Cai Junze looked at his mother eagerly. "I need to go out to earn money, so I have to carry some money with me in case of emergency, right?"
"You're planning to earn your own money, so why are you still asking me for money?" Liu Shulin glared at him. "If you're hungry, just go home and eat! It's not like there's no food at home! If you're going somewhere far away and can't come back for lunch, bring your food in a lunch box! If you're thirsty, bring water!"
Want money?
No!
Cai Junze: “…”
Liu Shulin planned to restrict her son's finances and not give him anything if possible.
