Afterwards, Chen Zhen asked Lin Liu, "How is your wound?"
"As long as you apply the medicine properly, it should be fine after a while." Lin Liu said nonchalantly.
Chen Chen nodded after hearing this, then threw him a purse and said, "There is some change in here, use it to buy some delicious food to replenish your body."
After Lin Liu took the purse, he said happily, "Thank you, Mr. He." The purse was quite heavy, and Mr. He was still so generous.
After that, it was the bearded Zhang Qiang and his group. Chen Chen asked them whether they wanted to go with them or go back on their own.
"Mr. He, can we brothers go back to work with you?" Zhang Qiang said.
They had previously honestly helped He Jinshu to open a gambling game in the provincial capital, and they gave all the money they earned from the gambling game to He Jinshu. In addition, they also helped He Jinshu publicize his reputation and deeds in various provincial capitals. This time, they helped him complete the "hiring of murder". He felt that they had a certain relationship with each other, right?
He Jinshu also gave them the previous antidote, which was a medicine that made people's bodies itch. After taking it, the brothers felt uncomfortable for a long time until He Jinshu gave them the antidote, and they returned to normal.
Several people understood He Jinshu's methods and admired his abilities very much, so they also wanted to go back and work with him. At least if they followed He Jinshu, as long as they worked hard, they would definitely not have to worry about food and drink, nor would they have to worry about not making money.
Upon hearing this, Chen Zhen said, "If you are willing to go, of course you can. The requirements are the same as Wang Erpi's."
"Thank you, Mr. He." Zhang Qiang and others said happily.
Afterwards, Chen Zhen also gave them a purse as a reward for their help.
After everything was settled, everyone headed directly towards Linshe County.
But this time there was no rush, so everyone drove at a normal speed.
On the way, He Jinshu and Shen Zhen took a detour to Cangzhou Prefecture, told the situation to Governor Pan, and invited him to visit Wujia Village in the next month. By then, the basic construction of Wujia Village would be completed, and visiting at that time would allow them to feel the changes in Wujia Village more intuitively.
After nearly 20 days of travel, the group finally returned to Fengyuan Town.
Before everyone parted, Wang Zhengkun said to Chen Chen and He Jinshu, "I'm really sorry that we've delayed the two children's first birthday party because of our affairs. When you have agreed on a date for the first birthday party, remember to let me know and I will definitely prepare a generous gift for them."
It is already mid-April. Originally, the end of March was the first birthday of the two children, and Chen Chen was planning to hold a banquet for them at that time, but unexpectedly it was delayed because of this matter.
"Okay, I understand. We will notify you when the time comes." Chen Chen said.
After that, everyone separated and went back to their own villages.
When they reached the fork in the road, Chen Chen told his servants to go to the Shen family to deliver a message first, and then headed towards Wujia Village.
From the outside, the school in the village looks almost completed, and the brick and tile houses of every household are about to be completed. In August, the terraced fields in the village will officially be put into use. By then, the appearance of Wujia Village will surely be completely new.
When the villagers who were busy in the village saw Chen Chen and his group coming back, they said happily: "He Xiucai, Village Chief, Brother Chen, you are back?"
"Yes, we are back. Is there anything big happening in the village?" Chen Chen said with a smile.
"It's nothing, everyone is fine." Aunt Yi replied with a smile.
"Hey, village chief, you actually learned to ride a horse?" An uncle who was about the same age as Village Chief Wu teased him.
Village Chief Wu sat on his horse and said proudly, "That's right. This time I went out with He Xiucai and the others and gained a lot of experience."
With his efforts, he also learned to ride a horse, although he was not fast.
After listening to the village chief chatting with the villagers for a few words, Chen Zhen and his friends said hello to the village chief and then returned home with their two children.
After arriving home, there was another lively atmosphere. After the two children were held by several elders in turn, everyone sat down to rest and chat.
"Are all the issues resolved?" Wei Mingyuan asked.
"It's resolved. Brother Wang and the others are all fine and have returned home now." He Jinshu replied.
"Not only was it resolved, Ah Shu even asked them for 1,500 taels of silver in compensation!" Chen Chen said proudly.
Wei Mingyuan nodded after hearing this, and then said to Chen Chen: "It's good that it's resolved. Brother Chen, since you are back, isn't it your turn to cook?"
Chen Zhen left just two days after he arrived, and she stayed away for such a long time that he didn't get to eat many of the meals cooked by Chen Zhen.
Although Aunt Wen’s cooking is delicious, I always feel that she doesn’t have as many varieties as Chen Zhen’s, and the taste always feels a little lacking compared to Chen Zhen’s.
Chen Zhen was speechless when he heard this: "You are really not polite at all." He had just come back and hadn't even sat down yet, but he was asked to cook.
"You're too polite. I have no food to eat." Wei Mingyuan said complacently, "I'm almost done with my wine. Remember to get me some more."
Madam Wei interrupted at this time, "Don't pay attention to him, Brother Zhen. You just got back today and you should have a good rest. It's not too late to cook tomorrow."
"I understand, Grandma Wei." Chen Chen responded.
After saying that, Chen Zhen said to Wei Mingyuan: "I can help Grandpa Wei to get some wine, and I can even give you an extra pot, but you have to do me a favor."
"What's the matter?"
"Help me find an experienced teacher to assist Ah Shu in teaching in the school in our village." Chen Chen said.
Upon hearing this, Wei Mingyuan said, "Your two villages combined have six scholars. Are you still worried about not being able to find a teacher?"
"The teacher can definitely be found, but Ah Shu himself has things to do and can't stay in the school every day. Our school is so big, we have to find an experienced person to manage the entire school, similar to the dean.
"You've been teaching for a lifetime, so you can definitely help find someone who's particularly qualified to help us manage this school, right?" Chen Chen said to Wei Mingyuan with a smile.
"You have a good plan." Wei Mingyuan said with a chuckle.
"Just tell me if you can help me with this."
"Give me two more jugs of wine and I'll help you."
"No," Chen Chen refused, "I'll give you another pot at most. Don't you know how old you are? Do you still want to see your precious great-grandchildren grow up?"
"Okay, just give me one more pot. I'll go find someone for you." Wei Mingyuan compromised.
"Then I would like to thank Grandpa Wei first." Chen Chen said with a smile.
After saying that, Chen Zhen looked at He Jinshu and raised his eyebrows. The teacher's matter was settled.
He Jinshu smiled when he saw this. He was still thinking about how to talk to Wei Mingyuan about this matter, but he didn't expect Chen Chen to help him discuss it directly. In this way, their school can start officially recruiting students soon.
