Chapter 77 What a fool!
"Young Master Liu, congratulations!"
Ye Wan saw Liu Wenshu and went over to him.
"Madam Ye, what are you doing here?" Liu Wenshu asked with a hint of surprise in his eyes.
"I came with my dad..."
Before Ye Wan could finish speaking, she was pushed two meters away. Seeing that Liu Wenshu was already surrounded and out of sight, she pursed her lips.
She was just about to subtly bring up the hundred taels of silver when she tried to get closer to him.
"Dad, look, isn't that right!" Ye Wan pointed to the name on the list.
The old man nodded, "Yes, yes, it should be him. Where is he? We don't even know who he is."
Ye Wan took a deep breath and shouted loudly.
"Ceramic creation! Ceramic creation!"
Tao Chuang, startled, stumbled and looked at them blankly. "What do you want with Tao Chuang?"
"Hey bro, you know him?" Ye Wan blurted out, "I'm her relative, where is he?"
Tao Chuang pointed to the west, "It seems like they're staying at the Fulai Inn. Go and ask around."
"Thank you so much, sir."
Ye Wan and the old man with a cough went to the Fulai Inn.
Tao Chuang looked at them and thought to himself, "Where did these two idiots come from? They can't even come up with a plausible reason to lie to me. What relatives of his are they?"
His relatives don't even recognize him; he's such a fool.
He was overjoyed; he had won, and finally he could repay his benefactor's kindness.
Oh, by the way, where did he go to find his benefactor?
Tao Chuang looked left and right, just about to find a shady spot to squat down, when suddenly a shoe fell from the sky and landed on his head.
"Young master, your shoe got crushed!" Yantai, covered in sweat, blocked the way.
Liu Wenshu was in a sorry state. "Stop talking nonsense! Stop it! Run! It's all your fault for shouting so loudly! If I get caught up in the results and become a son-in-law, you'll be sorry!"
Tao Chuang is holding a shoe in his hand, is he giving it up?
Could he pawn it?
"Did you see which direction Lady Ye went?" Liu Wenshu said, then saw his shoes, snatched them, and put them on.
The inkstone, "I think it's in the east?"
Ceramic Creation: ...
At the entrance of Fulai Inn.
"Father, let's go ask. Hopefully, we won't be disappointed again this time. Finding someone is so difficult." Ye Wan shielded her eyes from the sun and looked at the inn's signboard.
The old man wasn't so anxious now. "Whether we can find him or not depends on fate. Seeing that he's on the list puts my mind at ease. This child hasn't neglected his studies after all."
When they went in and asked, they found out there was nothing there, and the shopkeeper impatiently ignored them.
Just as the two were about to ask a waiter, Ye Wan spotted a familiar figure.
"Big sister!"
Ye Hua, who came out through the back door, was accompanied by Wang Ming.
"Little sister!"
Ye Hua rushed over, "Little sister, you've come to the capital city too?"
"I'm here to find someone. What are you doing here, big sister?" Ye Hua glanced at Wang Ming, who was not far away and looked uneasy.
“I came to the city with Wang Ming to sell vegetables. The prices here are higher. I was just thinking of stopping by town to see you on my way back, but I didn’t expect to run into you here.” Ye Hua was quite happy. “My family grew a lot of vegetables this year. Thanks to him for finding me a way to sell them at Fulai Inn.”
Wang Ming hesitated for a moment before walking over. "Who are you looking for? I know the people in the back. I'll go in and ask for you."
"Tao Chuang is on the list; he should be a Juren now."
Wang Ming went in and came out very quickly.
"Li San from behind said that a man named Tao Chuang had stayed at the inn for two days. The innkeeper from the front is regretting it now. If he had known that Tao Chuang could also win, he would have kept him here even if it meant not paying for the room!"
"Let's go, let's go back, let's stop looking."
The old man felt reassured that since people could afford to stay at the Fulai Inn, they must be doing quite well.
"Big sister, has that Wang Hu hit you recently?"
When they arrived in town, Ye Wan took Ye Hua to Aunt Cai's place so that she could familiarize herself with the area and find her there if she ever came to town again.
"No, I haven't dared to lay a hand on you since you taught me a lesson last time." Ye Hua said somewhat awkwardly.
He was only surprised that Ye Wan had re-acknowledged her parents, and didn't say anything.
"Big sister, you look thinner lately, is something wrong?"
Ye Hua shook her head and smiled, "What could possibly happen? Because of you, the people of Wangjia Village treat me kindly too."
“I know what you’re thinking. It’s a difficult path for a woman to walk. Don’t worry about me. I’m doing well now. I’m more worried about Cao’er.”
Seeing that she didn't want to talk about it, Ye Wan stopped talking and changed the subject, "Big sister, second sister is smart, she'll be fine."
"I won't stay here any longer. I'm going home now. I'll come see you again next time I'm in town."
Wang Ming was still waiting at the door to go back together, and Ye Hua felt bad making him wait too long.
Seeing Ye Wan take out a chicken, Ye Hua hurriedly declined, "No, you and the three children eat it. I've already eaten well enough today."
"Take it with you." Ye Wan forcefully stuffed it into her hands.
Ye Hua couldn't refuse, so she accepted, "Okay, the old lady next door is very kind to me, I'll use your chicken to do her a favor."
After exchanging a few more words, Ye Hua reluctantly left.
"That kid waiting at the door is obviously interested in your older sister," Aunt Cai whispered to Ye Wan.
"Mother noticed it too?"
Aunt Cai clicked her tongue. "How can you not see it when it's so obvious? Your eldest sister is an indecisive person. She can't figure things out herself, and no matter what others say, it's useless."
Ye Wan smiled and said, "Then let's wait for her to come to her senses."
“I thought you would try to persuade her?” Aunt Cai looked at Ye Wan.
"Why try to persuade her? It's not like I'm the one living the life. As long as she's comfortable, that's all that matters."
Ye Hua herself didn't want to leave Wang Hu, so why should she try to persuade her further?
“You’re even more insightful than I am,” Aunt Cai said with a yawn.
"Mom, can you teach me how to play chess?"
"No chess pieces."
...
...
"How's the thing I asked you to do coming along?"
Magistrate Wu sat in his chair and took a sip of tea.
Lin Anyuan bowed and said in a low voice, "Reporting to you, sir, it has been taken care of. The items have been placed in a place where no one knows about them."
"Good, I knew I hadn't misjudged you." Magistrate Wu stood up and patted Lin Anyuan on the shoulder. "I know you come from a humble background, but don't worry, you'll definitely have your day if you stay by my side."
Lin Anyuan was very excited. "My lord, thank you for your kindness. I will definitely serve you like a dog in the future."
It was as if he would die for Magistrate Wu if Magistrate Wu said just one more word.
Magistrate Wu was in a very good mood. Once this matter was settled, he would soon be promoted.
That troublesome Zhang Gui, he used to dream of becoming a county magistrate, now his grave is overgrown with weeds.
The bandits of Snake Mountain really did a good deed.
The more Magistrate Wu looked at Lin Anyuan, the more satisfied he became. He felt that this man could stay by his side in the future.
Wealthy families employ advisors, and he thought Lin Anyuan was an excellent advisor.
