Over at the restaurant.
Wei Yihong was caught in a nightmare. In the middle of the night, he suddenly jumped out of bed.
"ah?"
The third wife was also woken up by the noise.
The third wife rubbed her eyes, looked at the man whose forehead was covered in cold sweat, and pressed her chest against his. "Master, are you having another nightmare?"
Wei Yihong: "Hmm."
"Ah Guang!"
After shouting a few times, he suddenly realized something.
Uncle Quan stood at the door. "Master, is there something you need?"
Wei Yihong put on his clothes and gently closed the door.
"Uncle Quan, how are they?"
Uncle Quan: "The Second Madam suddenly had a shock on her way back to her hometown. She was already dead when we found her... The young master also did something, perhaps missing the Second Madam, he suddenly jumped out of the carriage like a madman, and fell to the ground without breathing."
Wei Yihong nodded lightly, "Understood."
The third wife's mouth was dry, so she got out of bed and drank a few sips of water.
Hearing the two talking in hushed tones, he quietly returned to the house.
Squeak.
The door closed.
The Third Madam clearly noticed that Wei Yihong's expression suddenly relaxed, and a thought struck her.
Wei Yihong lay on the bed, muttering to himself, "The ones who hurt you the most are often the people closest to you. If it weren't for that Chen family man's inexplicable behavior, I, this resentful child, would still be raising someone else's son."
The third wife shook her head and said, "I don't understand what you're saying, sir."
Wei Yihong sighed and hugged the young woman beside him tightly. "Why doesn't the second brother understand? As long as he doesn't betray me, I'd be happy even if he gave birth to a girl. You idiot."
Early the next morning, Wei Yihong discussed his plan to withdraw from Daxing Town with Uncle Quan.
"It would be best to call the Chen family over and ask them if they'd be willing to take over the restaurant."
Uncle Quan: "Okay."
"Should we tell him about the Gu family?"
Wei Yihong was slightly taken aback, thinking that he was a complete scoundrel, and his eldest son was no better, with his concubines fighting over him and trying to kill him.
Chen Xian may have said it, but it wasn't exactly honorable.
He paused for a moment.
"No need. Just say that business is not good right now and you want to find someone to take over. See what he says."
Uncle Quan was slightly taken aback, then lowered his head and went back to his work.
In the village, young women and wives gathered around the door of the eldest, second, and third sons of the Dong family early in the morning.
"Hey, have you heard? I heard that Dong Lao Da's wife and Dong Lao Er's wife are very close, and Dong Lao San's wife and Dong Lao Da's wife call each other 'sister-in-law' and 'uncle' very affectionately!"
"Even Dong Laosan... calls his eldest sister-in-law and second sister-in-law so affectionately... hehe..."
"You said, hehe..."
Someone waved their hand and said seriously, "I didn't say anything!"
Boss Dong sensed something was wrong and started cursing, "Get lost! Stop talking nonsense about me!"
Crowd riot.
Zhang Daguang said sternly, “Hey Boss Dong, how can your brain be so dirty? We were just saying your family has good connections, hey! Don’t look at me like that. People with dirty brains think the dirtiest things!”
Someone chimed in, "Yeah, yeah!"
Old Dong felt as if an egg was stuck in his throat, and he couldn't speak.
Before long, the old village head said with a serious face, "Everyone, disperse. We're all from the same village. If you spread rumors about someone from your village like this, one day someone will use the same method to slander you. Don't you think so?"
His gaze swept over the Dong family members.
Complex and unspoken.
The Dong brothers gathered together, looking like wild vegetables that had been dried out by the sun and were about to wilt.
"Forget it, I didn't expect the old village head to be so biased towards the widow of the Dong family. He's really vicious, spreading rumors about us..."
Old Master Dong looked at the two brothers with a complicated expression. The rumors were one thing, but the key was that the woman in the family had indeed been in contact with them in that way.
Who knows... whether it's a rumor or...
Seeing the two remain silent, Dong Laosan shook his head and smiled.
Forget it, if we don't even trust our own brothers, how can we unite against external threats?
They seized land and died quickly.
...
Chen Xian's little yellow horse is still recovering from its injury.
I conduct my daily routine of inspecting the village's pig farm.
More than 20 pounds of chicken are steaming hot in the iron pot.
We went to town.
Liniang and Shuangshuang were watching the stall.
Many diners have already started greeting Chen Xian.
"Good morning, Mr. Chen."
"Hello.'
Chen Xian began to respond.
"Boss Chen is so kind."
Many vendors near the food street have already started to post advertisements on their own.
"I heard that the owner of Zuixianglou is planning to sell it."
"Really? The price is several hundred taels for all the tables, chairs, and kitchen equipment together."
"Compared to Baiweilou Restaurant in town now, the price is really not expensive."
"Didn't you just buy it? Why are you reselling it?"
Someone looked at Chen Xian.
Start to let your imagination run wild.
"Could it be that Boss Chen used some tricks again? No way, we didn't know anything about it."
They didn't know when Chen Xian made his move, and their gazes toward Chen Xian became even more profound.
The greatest fear is the unknown.
"Wei Zhai is also planning to sell. He even posted the purchase contract, which is the same price as the original price, and he's also throwing in some furniture."
"So generous, I don't quite understand Mr. Wei's actions anymore. He just bought the house, and now he doesn't want it anymore? Is he being so hasty?"
"I don't know, maybe something happened at home?"
"Didn't you say you were going to lay down a fortune for your youngest son so he could squander it? Why aren't you working hard anymore? I can't understand it. Do you think your son is a good-for-nothing, beyond help, and have resigned yourself to your fate?"
