Chapter 35: Earn another thirty taels and I can marry you



"Remember what you said! If I find out that you take such a risk again, you'll be on your own!" Liu Shulin didn't want to indulge him!

Someone just chuckled.

Afterwards, Cai Junze went to find Liu Shanyao.

"Junze, you're back?"

Liu Shanyao was also very happy to see him come back.

"You kid, did you let something slip to my mother?"

As soon as they met, Cai Junze questioned him!

"No, no way!" Liu Shanyao waved his hands quickly, "Your mother did come to see me, but I didn't tell her the truth!"

Cai Junze stared at him for a long while, then looked away and said, "Okay, I'll just trust you for now! I promised you before that I'd treat you to a meal when I get back. I'll treat you again when I'm free!"

Liu Shanyao breathed a sigh of relief, looked at him, and said, "Junze, did you encounter any danger on the way to Luocheng County this time?"

Cai Junze laughed when he mentioned this, and then he proudly told him about the thrilling incident on the road. After that, he said, "So, I'm awesome, right?"

Liu Shanyao had a look of shock on his face, his mouth open, too shocked to speak!

"Look how shocked you are!" Cai Junze patted his shoulder in amusement. "Let me tell you, after three days of absence, you should look at me with new eyes! You can't keep looking at me with the same old eyes!"

"I am now very different from before!"

Liu Shanyao came back to his senses, seemed unconvinced, and asked, "Is what you said true or false?"

Cai Junze immediately frowned, glaring, and said, "I said so much, but in the end, you thought I was bragging? It seems that you still look at me with the old eyes!"

Liu Shanyao quickly forced a smile and said, "I believe it, of course I believe it! You can even kill wild boars, so dealing with a few robbers and bandits shouldn't be a big deal!"

Cai Junze wanted to punch him and said, "If you don't believe me, forget it!"

Then left!

In fact, Liu Shanyao was skeptical.

After all, what he said was indeed very different from the him he knew!

The next day.

Cai Junze went to Yuan's house and looked for Yuan Xiaoe.

Seeing him coming, Yuan Xiao'e was happy at first, but then her mood became complicated.

She had seen that Mr. Yan before. He looked okay, but his family was really rich!

Moreover, it seems that he really wants to marry her?

So, for a moment she had a hard time making a choice.

"Brother Junze, why are you here?"

Subconsciously, she is not as enthusiastic as before.

The look in his eyes when he looked at Cai Junze was a little evasive.

"I missed you, so I came to see you!" Cai Junze didn't notice Yuan Xiaoe's little mood. He smiled and his eyes seemed to be twinkling with stars. "I came here this time to tell you a good news."

"Good news? What good news?" Yuan Xiao'e's eyes flashed with surprise.

Cai Junze asked her to guess, she guessed two, but didn't get them right, so she stopped.

"If you don't want to tell me, forget it." Yuan Xiao'e looked unwilling to guess further.

Cai Junze could only reveal his true colors and said with a smile, "I went out to earn money this time and earned thirty taels straight away! Adding to my previous savings, I already have thirty-nine taels! I'm only twenty-seven taels away from the betrothal gift for you!"

Hearing this, Yuan Xiao'e was startled. She looked at him with wide eyes and said, "You...you earned thirty taels?"

"Yeah!" Cai Junze said with a smug look on his face, grinning, "I earned thirty taels! Isn't that impressive? Hehe!"

Yuan Xiao'e was shocked for a moment, then recovered and asked him, "What did you do to earn so much?"

Cai Junze did not hide anything and told her about how he escorted the caravan to Luocheng County, encountered danger on the road, and how he cleverly resolved the danger and was rewarded with thirty taels of silver.

Listening to him talk about these things, Yuan Xiao'e's expression changed in various ways, and finally turned into joy and admiration. She blinked her eyes, looked at him, and said, "Brother Junze, you are so amazing!"

Cai Junze said confidently: "That's not the case!"

By the way, this experience, in addition to earning him a reward of thirty taels, also gave him a kind of confidence and courage that he had never had before!

"But, Brother Junze, this is so dangerous! If you're not careful, you might lose your life!" Yuan Xiao'e felt a trace of worry in her heart. "Fortunately, you came back safely! But, don't do such things in the future! No matter how important money is, it's not as important as life!"

Listening to her concern, Cai Junze was satisfied and smiled, "In order to marry you, I don't care about these dangers! But don't worry, I will try to avoid such things in the future!"

"What do you mean by touching him as little as possible? Don't touch him even once!" Yuan Xiao'e raised her fist and hit him twice.

Cai Junze grabbed her hand, took her into his arms, and hugged her tightly, whispering in her ear: "Xiao E, I will definitely marry you and make you my wife!"

Yuan Xiao'e was slightly startled. If it were in the past, she would definitely be happy to be his wife. However, now, a Mr. Yan appeared, and he was so rich. What's more, he took the initiative to come to her house to propose marriage with full sincerity. It would be a lie to say that she was not moved at all!

However, she also has feelings for Cai Junze.

So, she was really confused about this issue and didn't know what to do.

"Xiao E, why do you look unhappy?" Cai Junze noticed something and couldn't help but lower his eyes to look at the woman in his arms.

"No, no!" Yuan Xiao'e quickly denied it, then forced a smile on her face, "I'm very happy!"
