Chapter 507: Scholar Throwing Tantrum
Seeing that Shopkeeper Yao was so direct, Ye Beixiu no longer needed to be shy. "Shopkeeper Yao, I'd like to inquire about any news from Liu Hong."
Shopkeeper Yao was slightly taken aback, "Juexia doesn't know?"
"I don't think she knows. I haven't heard her talk about it."
"Oh....., Liu Hong was brought back from Qingling City by Fang Lan. Is it just his body? Anyway, you know that he was tortured over there for so many days..."
Shopkeeper Yao's words were too subtle, but Ye Beixiu still asked, "Can you raise him?"
"Why? You're still hoping he can be brought over. I haven't asked for details, but people who have heard of him say he's currently lying in bed, needing someone to take care of him, eating, drinking, defecating, and urinating."
After hearing this, Ye Beixiu felt a little sweet in his heart, but then he felt something was wrong, so he calmed himself down and repeated to Manager Yao what he had just told Li Xi and Aunt Wang.
Shopkeeper Yao slapped his forehead and said, "We can't get rid of all these bad guys. Liu Hong is gone, and now Zhou Jiu is here. It's really abominable."
Seeing that Manager Yao was so upset, Ye Beixiu comforted her and said, "The man I arrested has been sent to the government.
I've also said hello to those people in the government. I think they won't have the guts to do these sneaky things anymore!"
Shopkeeper Yao snorted coldly, "This Zhou Jiu is Liu Hong's follower, I'm afraid that the top beam is not straight and the bottom beam is crooked.
He recently got married, and it was time to use the money...
Forget it, you don’t live in town on weekdays, I will keep an eye on it.
Don't tell Juexia about this yet. The most important thing now is to take good care of her so that she can give birth to a big fat boy for you."
Ye Beixiu couldn't help but smile, "Thank you, Manager Yao, for thinking of my wife!"
Manager Yao waved his hand and said, "Alright, you've finished your meal, and you've heard what you wanted to know. Let's go back quickly!
Don't let Juexia wait anxiously at home. I will pay attention to the affairs of the town. If there is anything, I will let Manager Li tell you as soon as possible."
Ye Beixiu bowed respectfully to Shopkeeper Yao and said, "Thank you very much!"
"Don't be polite. I'm doing this for Jue Xia. Let me tell you, if you treat her badly, I'll be the first one to object."
"Of course not! Please rest assured."
Ye Suyun, Ye Beishan and Ye Beilin were talking outside after dinner. When they saw Ye Beixiu come in, the three of them hurriedly stood up.
Ye Beishan asked with concern, "Beixiu, are we done with our work? Shall we leave now?"
"If there's nothing else, let's go back!"
Ye Suyun reluctantly sent her brothers away. As she stood in front of the shop in a daze, Shopkeeper Yao walked over and said, "You are a lucky girl. Look at your brothers. I'm afraid that kid from the Zhao family doesn't have the courage to mess with you."
Ye Suyun stepped forward, took Manager Yao's arm, and started to act coquettishly, "Master, you told me yesterday to make progress on my own.
It is said that a woman can never rely on anyone else at any time and can only rely on herself.
Why are you talking about this again today?"
Shopkeeper Yao reached out and patted Ye Suyun gently, "Girl, don't be so ungrateful for what you have. It's good to have someone to back you up!"
"well!"
Lin Yuan was driving the carriage, and the three brothers Ye Beishan, Ye Beixiu and Ye Beilin were talking in the carriage.
As they talked, they talked about some interesting things in their childhood. When it came to the sad part, Ye Beishan sighed, "Beixiu, I never dreamed that you could pass the martial arts exam."
"I haven't thought about it. I used to think how great it would be to be able to marry a wife and no longer be a burden to my family!"
Ye Beishan comforted Ye Beixiu, "You are the best among our brothers now.
Let's not think about that anymore. Beilin, have you ever thought about working as a clerk in your brother Beixiu's shop someday?"
Ye Beilin, who was resting with his eyes closed in the carriage, opened his eyes quickly when he heard his name being called, "Brother, Brother Beixiu, what did you say?"
"Tell me, have you ever thought about how to be a good buddy?"
Ye Beilin was thinking quickly in his mind, but he was complaining in his heart, I just want to do something I like, why is it so difficult?
Ye Beilin opened his mouth, but before he could say anything, Lin Yuan, who was driving the carriage outside, suddenly pulled the reins tight and stopped the carriage.
Ye Beixiu quickly lifted the carriage curtain, "Lin Yuan, what's going on?"
Lin Yuan pointed ahead and said awkwardly, "They're blocking the road ahead. I..."
Ye Beishan muttered in the carriage, "We haven't even left Jinshui Town yet, and the road is blocked."
No, when did the roads in Jinshui Town become so difficult to travel on? "
Ye Beilin, who didn't know the truth, suggested, "Brother, why don't you let Lin Yuan rest and drive the car? You drive this road every day, so you must be more familiar with it than Lin Yuan."
When Lin Yuan heard that he was being disliked, he quickly explained, "Master, Master Beilin, it's not that I don't know the way, but this road is indeed blocked. If you don't believe me, you can come down and take a look."
Ye Beixiu had already jumped off the carriage and joined the crowd to see what was going on.
"Liu Sanle, what kind of logic is this? The second brother and I have already separated from the family, and now you live with your parents.
Dad is sick, so you should take care of him, why are you looking for us?"
"That's right. Normally, when you took money from your parents, you never gave us a penny."
Liu Sanle couldn't argue with four people, but he still said with his neck stiff, "A few days ago, with the witness of the clan leader, I also separated from the family.
Dad is sick now and needs someone to take care of him. The three of us brothers should share the burden. Is there anything wrong with that?
Besides, in order to save my father, my mother sold my fifty acres of land.
When dad got into trouble, you didn't contribute a penny. Now I ask you to take turns taking care of your parents, and you still have objections.
Fortunately, you are still my brothers, I...”
"If you don't want to acknowledge us as your brothers, then don't acknowledge us.
Oh, I forgot, you are a scholar now, and we cannot reach your status."
Liu Sanle watched his two brothers and sisters-in-law prepare to leave. He lay on the ground, blocking their path. "Things haven't been explained yet. You can't leave."
More and more people gathered around, and when Ye Beixiu saw this scene, he curled up the corner of his mouth in disdain.
Someone in the crowd said, "I never thought that the scholar is not only good at studying, but also good at throwing tantrums and playing tricks!"
Brother Liu Sanle got angry and tore his sleeves. He would rather have his clothes torn than argue with Liu Sanle in the street.
"Sanle, please stop making trouble. No matter what, your second brother and I have done our best for you and for our parents.
We have supported your education to this point, and now it is time for you to contribute your efforts and show your filial piety."
