Chapter 250 Help
Zhang Wei smacked his lips and said, "Brother Bei Xiu, sister, I have done my best on this matter.
I'm afraid that if Wang Houwen is released, he, a second-rate guy, will not let it go!"
Ye Beixiu frowned tightly. Although he felt unwilling in his heart, he was powerless at the moment and had no good solution.
He couldn't help but clench his fists tighter. He had no choice but to work hard, to stand taller so that he could better protect his wife and children.
Although Zhang Juexia was worried, he was not frightened. "Brother Zhang, you have already helped us a lot in this matter. There is no need to blame yourself. Let's take it one step at a time!"
Zhang Wei also warned, "Liu Hong's son, Liu Sanle, passed the imperial examination. I'm afraid he's going to show up again. You'd better be careful!"
"Hey, a mere scholar is nothing to be afraid of."
Zhang Wei raised his head and looked outside. "It's getting late. I'll go back."
Zhang Juexia and Ye Beixiu sent Zhang Wei out of Manfu Restaurant. They returned and talked to Manager Wan for a few words before preparing to go back to the shop to take a look.
Zhang Juexia was a little worried, but he pulled himself together and discussed the next things with Ye Beixiu, "We need to find a time to open the shop in the county. When you go back to the county this time, take Li Le with you so that he can get acquainted with Yang Zhi.
After the grain is harvested, the rent for the thirty acres of land in the town will be collected. You can leave this matter to Li Xi and let him handle it. The land at home can be handed over to Uncle Yunhai.
After a few days, when I finish my housework, I will go to the county town to buy a few more people and send them out to raise sheep and chickens. I will let Liu Wanfeng take care of them.
Ye Beixiu nodded as he memorized it in his mind, "My wife, you have arranged everything properly, leaving me as a free man."
“How can you be an idle person when you are carrying such a heavy burden?
Ye Beixiu, let me tell you, I was upset about what happened to Wang Houwen today. He had clearly committed a crime, but because of a word from a scholar, the county magistrate changed his mind.
Therefore, I hope you will take the military examination seriously. Even though adding the word "martial" before "xiucai" doesn't give you the same prestige as "xiucai", it is still a xiucai after all."
Ye Beixiu looked around and saw that there were no pedestrians. He immediately pulled Zhang Juexia into his arms and said, "I feel uncomfortable too. My wife, I will work hard to help you get the imperial decree."
Zhang Juexia nodded, "Then let's work hard together!"
"Excuse me, are you Ye Beixiu and Zhang Juexia from Yejia Village?"
Zhang Juexia shuddered with fear. Ye Beixiu protected her and looked at the other party with forced calmness, "Who are you?"
"Don't be afraid, I'm not a bad person. I just have someone who wants to see you. Please come with me."
As the man spoke, he pulled out a sign and flashed it in front of them.
Zhang Juexia recognized this sign; she had one at home. "You appeared behind someone so quietly and said something out of the blue. Do you know how scary it is?"
The man touched his nose with his hand embarrassedly and bowed to Zhang Juexia, "I'm sorry, but my eldest brother specifically told me not to use violence and that I must not let outsiders know about this, so I had no choice but to do this."
"Tell me, how do we get there?"
"We still have some distance to go. I'll lead the way, and you just follow."
After the man finished speaking, he jumped onto the carriage in front. Ye Beixiu followed closely behind, while Zhang Juexia, who was sitting in the carriage, was wondering what Ren Xiaoyao wanted to see them about.
To be honest, she just wanted to live an honest life and really didn't want to have anything to do with bandits.
The carriage in front left the city and arrived at a village that Zhang Juexia had never been to. After making many turns, it finally arrived in front of a dilapidated courtyard.
The man stopped the carriage and said, "You two have arrived. My eldest brother is inside. You can go in without worry. I will be waiting outside."
Zhang Juexia knew that he was probably watching at the door, so he took Ye Beixiu's hand and walked into the yard.
Ren Xiaoyao walked out of the house and said in his powerful voice, "We meet again. Please come in."
Zhang Juexia entered the room and looked around.
Ren Xiaoyao let them take a seat and said, "This house is a private residence I bought in the village. If you brothers come by on weekdays, it can be regarded as a place to stay."
Although Zhang Juexia had many doubts in his mind, he still sat down obediently.
She didn't dare to reason with the bandits and ask them why they did this.
Even though Ren Xiaoyao is speaking nicely now, he might turn hostile in the next second.
After Ye Beixiu sat down, he stood up again and bowed to Ren Xiaoyao. "I wonder what the boss wants to talk to my wife and me about?"
"I told you guys not to be polite with me, just call me Brother Ren, otherwise, I will get angry."
"Brother Ren."
"That's right. I'm looking for you because one of my brothers got injured and broke his leg while fighting for a hilltop a while ago.
I took him to see Liu Mingda from Dejitang, and he also said that there was no cure.
I think we are brothers, and he is already in this state. It would be cruel for me to let him follow me to seize the mountain.
But I racked my brains and couldn't figure out how to arrange this brother. After thinking about it, I thought of you.
Can you let me, your brother, go back to the village with you and help you farm?"
Zhang Juexia thought to himself, big brother also needs good people to farm!
Seeing that Zhang Juexia didn't say anything, Ye Beixiu thought she disagreed and didn't dare to respond to Ren Xiaoyao's words.
Ren Xiaoyao glared, "What? Do you dislike my brother?"
Zhang Juexia waved his hands repeatedly, "How could that be? I was wondering what kind of job this big brother is suitable for? How is his martial arts?"
Ren Xiaoyao thought for a moment and said, "It's considered good in our mountain."
"Can we meet someone first?"
"Tianxing, come in quickly."
After that, a tall, muscular man with a rough beard limped in and said in a loud voice, "Brother, are you looking for me?"
Ren Xiaoyao quickly introduced, "My brother Ren Tianxing."
"Tianxing, this is the couple Zhang Juexia and Ye Beixiu that I mentioned to you."
"Hello!"
Zhang Juexia and Ye Beixiu quickly returned the greeting.
Ren Xiaoyao didn't say any polite words and went straight to the point and asked, "How is it? You've met the person now. Can you give me a straight answer?"
Ren Tianxing didn't wait for Zhang Juexia to reply, but instead spoke up, "Brother, why did you insist on chasing me down from the mountain? Even though I've become a cripple, I can still help everyone with cooking and stuff."
"Did I ask you to speak? Can we eat the meal you cooked?"
Ren Tianxing scratched his head.
Zhang Juexia discovered that his face, as a big and strong man, turned red.
