Chapter 340 Master Asks You to Count Money
Seeing Zhou Cuihua dumbfounded, Mother Zhang from Manchunyuan flicked her handkerchief and rolled her eyes: "Boring!"
He gave the thugs another look, turned around, and walked away with his butt swaying.
The thugs understood and immediately lifted up the tied Chen Chengcai and dragged him to follow Zhang Mama's footsteps.
When Zhou Cuihua saw her eldest son being dragged away, she struggled to get up from the ground and chased after him.
"Stop! Stop right there!"
"Where are you taking my son?"
Mother Zhang stopped and looked back at her: "Didn't I just tell you that your son got my little Honglian pregnant? I'm taking him back to solve the problem."
"Solve...solve the problem?" Zhou Cuihua was a little confused. "How do we solve it?"
"Oh," Mother Zhang raised her handkerchief, covering her mouth with her hand, and smiled. "Didn't you say it yourself? Since the two of you love each other, then you should get married!"
"You...!" Zhou Cuihua was so angry that her face turned blue. "My son will never marry a brothel girl!"
"It must be your little whore who came to seduce my son!"
"No, I can't let you take my son away! I...I'm going to report it to the police right now!"
As she spoke, she turned around and was about to leave, but when she turned around, she was blocked by two tall and strong thugs behind her.
"Chengcai Niang, if your brain isn't working well, I'll pay for you to go to the hospital and have your brain checked out."
Mother Zhang looked at her with a mocking expression: "For the past few months, Chen Chengcai has been coming to our Manchunyuan every now and then with money to order girls. He has ordered all the beautiful girls in our family!"
"In the end, he fell in love with Xiao Honglian and even got her pregnant. Xiao Honglian is one of the most popular people in our family! She's the successor to our top star!"
"I had a miscarriage this time, and I'll have to rest for at least half a month. How will I calculate the loss? Will you compensate me?!"
Zhou Cuihua has no money left.
She had previously spent a lot of money on sending Chen Chengcai to Lintianfu for the exam, hiring a carriage, and buying clothes, and all that money was borrowed from the money house.
"I..." She stammered, "But, even if you take Chengcai away, he won't have the money to pay you back!"
"If you don't have money, just work! Be a tortoise or a rabbit master, you can make a lot of money!"
Mother Zhang glared at her, then covered her mouth with her hands and laughed, "It's what we agreed to do, you're going to marry into our family! We at Manchunyuan are very welcome to you!"
"You...! You're forcibly robbing a man!"
Zhou Cuihua was so angry that her face turned blue. She rushed over and hugged Chen Chengcai tightly, refusing to let go.
"Someone, help! She's trying to force me into prostitution!"
When Chen Chengcai heard what Zhang's mother said, he was frightened. His face turned pale and his legs were shaking.
But no one wants to get involved in this kind of unclear and unclear matter, especially one related to Manchunyuan. Everyone just wants to watch the fun.
So, the crowd of onlookers unanimously took a few steps back to make way for Mother Zhang and the others.
Zhou Cuihua howled so loudly that Mother Zhang became annoyed. She waved her hand and had two thugs cover her mouth and drag her away together with Chen Chengcai.
At this time, someone in the crowd was sharp-eyed and recognized the two people.
He exclaimed in surprise, "Hey! These... aren't these the mother and son who passed out candy in a carriage on the day they went to Lintianfu for the exam?"
"Yes! It seems to be them! This... wasn't it said that Chen He was a good candidate for the imperial examination? How come he was taken away by the brothel madam in the blink of an eye?"
"He's still a juren! I think he's going to fail soon!"
"Ha ha ha ha!"
Laughter rose and fell in the crowd, and the atmosphere suddenly became lively again.
Baoya listened to the chatter in the crowd, her mind full of questions.
He pulled Yun Chengfu's sleeve and shook it: "Brother, what does 'not raised' mean? Does it mean that Chen Chengcai can't pass the imperial examination?"
Yun Chengfu: ...
Baoya's question made his face flush red. He turned away, coughed lightly and said, "This...this..."
Yun Chengfu didn't know how to answer and stammered, unable to speak.
Baoya became even more suspicious. Is there something that her elder brother doesn't understand?
"Baoya, let's go. Master asked me to tell you to count the money."
Behind him, Jing Zhen's cold voice suddenly came.
"Um?"
Baoya turned her head and saw Jingzhen looking at her. Then she remembered that little brother Jing had just come.
It turned out that he was looking for her.
but……
"What are you counting money for?" The little girl looked at him with her round eyes.
"The money I won from betting." Jing Zhen said.
Baoya remembered and her eyes suddenly lit up. She greeted Yun Chengfu, Zhao Zhilan, Wang Cailian and others.
"Big brother, second brother, third sister, fourth sister! Grandma, uncle, aunt! Master asked me to count the money, I'll be right back!"
After saying that, he pulled Jingzhen out of the crowd and ran away.
The Yun family members who stayed behind were confused. Asking her to count money? What money?
Jingzhen took Baoya's hand and walked out of the crowd and headed towards a quiet alley.
Baoya was still thinking about the question that Yun Chengfu had not answered.
Even if the eldest brother doesn’t know, Brother Xiaojing should know, right?
"Brother Xiaojing." Baoya shook the hands that the two of them were holding together.
Jing Zhen's lips curled slightly: "Hmm?"
"What does impotence mean?"
The smile on Jingzhen's face froze.
Seeing that he didn't answer, Baoya shook their hands again.
She pouted and acted coquettishly towards Jingzhen: "Just tell me!"
"Big brother doesn't know, doesn't Brother Xiaojing know either?"
Jing Zhen: ...
"cough……"
"Not...lifting means...not being able to do it."
"Oh." The little girl felt that she understood.
Chen Chengcai has a bad mind, is not good at studying, and cannot pass the exams. He is really not good enough.
She understood.
Just as she was thinking about it, Jingzhen had already brought her to a stop under an ancient willow tree.
"We're here." Jingzhen said.
When Baoya came to her senses, she saw a slender white arm reaching out from behind Gu Liu and waving to them.
"You two are so slow, come on!"
Nan Xuan's voice came from behind Gu Liu.
When Baoya heard the familiar voice, she actually let go of Jingzhen's hand and ran behind Guliu.
While running, he excitedly said, "Master! I'm here!"
Jingzhen was helpless, shook his head and smiled.
When did this little foodie become a money-grubber?
Behind the ancient willow tree, under the huge shade of the tree, Nan Xuan was sitting on the ground in a green shirt.
In front of him was a spread-out cobalt blue square cloth, on which lay a pile of glittering silver ingots, as well as a lot of small change and strings of copper coins.
Seeing Baoya and Jingzhen coming over, Nan Xuan smiled and stretched out his hand to greet them, "You two, help me count, is it enough for eight hundred taels?"
Eight hundred taels?
Jingzhen was speechless. He was afraid that Nanxuan had emptied the gambling house.
A gambling house in a small town like this, with all the money and the shop together, should be able to make ends meet, right?
