"Then what's the point of beating him up?" Niu Jiashi was unhappy, and Lu Qingyan was also unhappy. "Beating him up will only worsen the relationship between our two families. It will be more difficult to get money from him in the future!"
"The problem is, if we don't beat him up, we won't get the money!" Niu Jiashi felt deeply aggrieved.
He went to beat Cai Junze just to vent his anger from last time!
Otherwise, the mind will feel uncomfortable!
Who would have thought that he would fail at the outset and end up in failure!
The more he thought about it, the angrier he got!
"Okay, ask your mother to help you treat this wound!" Looking at the wound on his head, Lu Qingyan felt irritated.
After seeing this scene, Niu Li became even more unhappy with her daughter-in-law.
Her husband was injured, but she didn't care about him when she came home, and instead blamed him for everything. Moreover, she had nothing to do, so she didn't help with the wound, but asked her to help?
Niu Li was unhappy, but she didn't show it. Instead, she handed Yang'er to Lu Qingyan and went to treat her son's head wound.
"Mom, what happened to Niu Dad?"
Seeing the injuries on Niu's stone, Cai Chenyang asked.
He called Niu Jiashi "Niu Dad" and Cai Junze "Dad".
"It's nothing, I just fell and hit my head." Lu Qingyan said lightly.
Cai Chenyang seemed to understand, "Oh!"
The next day.
Cai Junze found an excuse and went out for a walk.
Instead, he went to find the gangsters who had been asked to act with him before.
"Hey, Brother Cai, what do you want to talk to us about?" Seeing him coming to find them, the young men became enthusiastic again and called him Brother Cai affectionately.
Cai Junze didn't care about the fact that they forced him to give him two taels of silver last time. After all, he asked them for help, so it was indeed his duty to give them money.
"I'm looking for you because I want your help with something." Cai Junze said solemnly.
"Oh? What's the matter?" When they heard that something was wrong, they became even more enthusiastic!
"Please help me keep an eye on the Yuan family in Lufang Village and see which family they have been discussing marriage with recently!" Cai Junze would naturally feel uncomfortable if he didn't get to the bottom of this matter, so he thought of finding someone to help him keep an eye on it.
He was under the control of his mother, so he didn't have the chance to go to the Yuan family every day to keep an eye on them. So, he had to hire someone.
He had asked these young men for help before and they were quite reliable, so he came to them again.
"Okay! But, this money..." The young man in the lead looked at Cai Junze with a smile, his eyes shining.
"Two taels of silver!" Cai Junze made the offer!
As he said this, he took out ten coins of silver and gave them, "I'll give you ten coins first, and when the matter is done, I'll give you another ten coins."
Ten coins is equal to one tael!
The young man took the money, smiling broadly, and said, "Okay, okay. We'll keep an eye on him for you and investigate his background."
Cai Junze gave them a few more instructions and left.
He felt the pain of spending two taels of silver on this matter.
However, he won't give up until he finds out the person who is trying to poach his girlfriend!
Besides, if he couldn't marry Xiao'e, all the money he had saved would be meaningless.
That day, he began to recite the third chapter of the Tao Te Ching.
“If you do not promote the virtuous, the people will not quarrel; if you do not value hard-to-find goods, the people will not steal; if you do not show what is desirable, the people will not be disturbed…If you practice non-action, everything will be governed.”
Seeing that he had returned to the shop and was still memorizing books there, Liu Shulin couldn't help but look sideways.
"Ms. Cai Liu, your son has been reciting his lessons every day recently. Is he going to take part in the imperial examination?" Zheng Xianren, who must come to buy buns every day, couldn't help but ask.
Liu Shulin shook her head. "With his level, he can't even pass the county exam, let alone the imperial examination!"
When people talk about imperial examinations, they generally refer to the examinations for scholars, juren, and gongshi... the more basic county and prefectural examinations are not included.
Zheng Xianren's eyes flickered as he said, "As long as you're willing to put in the effort, there's a chance. I think he's quite hardworking and diligent."
Liu Shulin said, "He's not cut out for studying. I let him study so he can learn something, not so he can take the imperial examination. Of course, if he's willing to take the exam, I won't object."
However, considering his character, he would definitely be unwilling to take the county exam.
Of course, now it is already past the time for this year's county examination.
Zheng Xianren took advantage of this topic to talk about a lot of things.
Liu Shulin simply complained to him for a few words and stopped talking about the topic, instead busying herself with her own affairs.
Zheng Xianren sighed inwardly and pondered, "What's been going on with Cai Liu in the past two months? Why does it feel like she's become much more distant from me?"
Two months ago, this was not the case!
A few days passed like this.
Cai Junze comes to the store to help every day, carrying books on his back.
Then, he glanced outside the store from time to time, as if waiting for something.
"You've been staring outside the shop these days. What are you doing?"
Liu Shulin noticed his action.
"Nothing, just looking around."
He wouldn't be honest, he was waiting for news.
Waiting for news from those young men.
Several days have passed and there is still no news?
He is anxious too!
Did he just take the money and run away?
After thinking about it, I don’t think so.
Although those guys are bad, they are still very loyal and trustworthy.
When he had memorized the sixth chapter of the Tao Te Ching, he finally received news from those young men!
They sent someone to the vicinity of the store and made a gesture to Cai Junze.
My dear, there is more to this chapter. Please click on the next page to continue reading. It will be even more exciting later!
