Chapter 270: Bad Waters Emerge
Hearing what Old Man Chen said, Old Lady Chen was so angry that she glared at him, "Stop making trouble here, you old bastard, you want to be a eunuch, but people don't want you!"
"That's good. I thought you were going to sell me for money!" Old Man Chen breathed a sigh of relief and then asked, "Who are you planning to sell?"
Old Mrs. Chen swallowed her saliva and asked tentatively,
"You don't want Mom to sell your second brother or sister-in-law, do you? I wouldn't dare do such a thing, even if I were scared to death. The main reason is that I'm afraid they would try to kill me!"
Liu Fengjiao almost choked with laughter at these words, "Mom, what are you thinking? My second brother and his wife can't be sold for a high price even with their looks!"
"So what you mean is..."
Liu Fengjiao snorted coldly, "If we can't deal with that damn girl, then we can start with that brat. We can find a way to lure him out, and then sell him to a pawnbroker. Then all our family's difficulties will be solved."
"Okay, great."
Chen Zhancai slapped his thigh happily. He had disliked Chen Han for a long time.
I don't know what's wrong with that kid's brain, but he understands things at a glance and learns them quickly.
He is the best in every aspect in the academy, and it would be troublesome if I surpassed him.
Only by destroying him can he have no worries.
No matter how smart he is, as long as he becomes a disabled person, he cannot take part in the imperial examination. The Daning Dynasty does not allow disabled people to pursue a career in officialdom.
Old man Chen felt a little bit sorry, because farmers were proud of having many sons. Although the eldest son had been divided, the boy Han was the blood of the Chen family after all.
He shook his head and sighed, "This isn't good, isn't it a bit too unethical?"
Chen Zhancai rolled his eyes at him angrily, "Dad, didn't you agree to send my eldest brother to the palace? Why are you pretending to be a good person now?"
"I agree to send your elder brother to the palace to be a eunuch for a reason. First, he is old and can't make any contribution to the family. Second, only when he is old can he survive in the palace. Chen Han is so young, sending him to the palace is tantamount to his death!"
Liu Fengjiao narrowed her eyes, a cold smile appeared on the corner of her mouth, and then she began to persuade,
"Dad, what are you talking about? What's wrong with that?
Think about it, the eldest family has been like enemies to us since they separated from us. From the oldest to the youngest, no one has any conscience.
If they have any conscience at all, they won't just sit there and watch us get anxious and upset over such a small thing!
Therefore, we must not be lenient when dealing with villains!"
"I think Fengjiao is right. We can't even talk about morality with those ruthless people in the first house." Chen Zhancai said, looking at Old Lady Chen. "Mom, Fengjiao's idea is good. Now it's up to you."
Old Mrs. Chen shook her head when she heard this. "Feng Jiao's idea is indeed good, but that little bastard Chen Han turns black-eyed and crazy when he sees your father and me. We can't do anything about it!"
Old Man Chen saw that he couldn't win over them, and he really had no other way to get the money. For the sake of future glory and wealth, he could only be a man of evil.
"You're right. Although Han is usually silent and listless, he has many tricks up his sleeve. Ordinary people can't fool him, unless..."
"Unless what?" Old Mrs. Chen asked hurriedly.
Old man Chen gestured with his hands, "Unless you kill me, hit me with a club!"
"What a rotten idea you came up with."
Old Mrs. Chen glared at him.
"My men don't know how to handle situations. If they kill someone, all our efforts will be in vain.
We must come up with a foolproof plan. As long as we can trick that little bastard into the town and sell him to the human traffickers, everything will be fine.
But who can trick him out?"
This caused several people to be troubled.
After a moment, Liu Fengjiao smiled faintly and said, "Mom, no one else can do this kind of thing, it has to be done by you and my dad."
Old Lady Chen looked troubled. "No, Fengjiao, didn't Mother just tell me that the little bastard doesn't trust me at all? If I fail, it will alert the enemy. They will be on guard, and it will be difficult to take action next time."
"Yes, yes, mother, what you said makes sense." Chen Zhancai nodded and continued, "If you don't do this kind of thing, then don't do it. If you do it, do it secretly. You must win in one move and there must be no mistakes."
"Son, what do you mean?" asked Old Mrs. Chen.
A hint of a sneer appeared on Chen Zhancai's lips. "It's not easy for you to do this. I'll have to trick that little bastard myself."
Old Mrs. Chen nodded and said, "It seems that this is the only way. But son, you must be careful not to be discovered."
"Yes, Zhancai, this is illegal. If you are not careful, you may end up in jail." Old man Chen kindly reminded him.
Old Mrs. Chen was so angry that she started cursing, "You're a piece of shit, what law are you breaking? What are you going to jail for? Can't you just say something nice? You've been such a coward your whole life, so weak that you can't even make a fart. You'll never make a fortune in your lifetime. If you can't talk, just shut up!"
Old man Chen was almost angry to death, but he dared not say anything.
Chen Zhancai smiled confidently and said, "Don't worry, I will do it without anyone noticing. But if I really can trick that little bastard out, you mothers will have to handle the rest. After all, I'm a scholar, and it's not easy for me to deal with human traffickers."
"Okay, then it's settled. You're responsible for luring that little bastard into town, and leave the rest to me and your father."
Finally, she figured out a way to get money for her son's imperial examination. Old Mrs. Chen felt relieved.
Chen Zhancai took the opportunity to make big promises again, which made the old couple so happy that they almost lost their minds.
It wasn't until his stomach growled that he remembered he hadn't had breakfast yet, so he hurriedly said to Liu Fengjiao,
"My dear, please go check on Ruhua. I asked her to prepare some food. Why hasn't she come back in so long? I'm so hungry I can't stand it anymore."
"Okay, I'll go see your sister Ruhua right now." Liu Fengjiao turned around and left the house with reluctance on her face.
As soon as I arrived at the kitchen, I was stunned by the scene in front of me.
The ground was littered with discarded egg shells, and Ruhua was stirring the eggs in a bowl with a serious look on her face.
"Ruhua, what are you doing?" Liu Fengjiao widened her eyes in shock, her face full of disbelief.
Ruhua was distracted, thinking of the days in Chunfeng Tower.
Before she met Chen Zhancai, because no one wanted her to be a customer, the madam had to let her do odd jobs.
In addition to cleaning, I also have to cook.
She thought that this was the end of her life, but unexpectedly, good luck came and she couldn't stop it.
Finally, she had the honor to meet her first customer in her life——Chen Zhancai,
In order to satisfy the guests, she used all the skills she had learned from her sisters by secretly peeping through the window cracks.
Unexpectedly, she became incontinent after being treated by Chen Zhancai, and she was almost scared to death.
Fortunately, he was quick-witted and slapped Chen Zhancai several times in the face, and he finally regained his consciousness.
Ever since this incident, the madam didn't dare let her receive any more customers, for fear that she would harm them to death.
But Ruhua was also content, at least she had tasted the joy of being a woman.
Who knew that not long after, Chen Zhancai came to see her.
From then on, the two fell in love and secretly decided to spend their lives together...
