Chapter 37: Insulting



After breakfast, Chen Chen went to the study alone, said hello to Grandma He, and then drove to the town with He Jinshu in a carriage.

Today, Chen Zhen felt uncomfortable sitting on the shaft of the cart.

After excessive use, he felt uncomfortable no matter how he sat, so he kept changing his sitting position.

In the carriage, He Jinshu was leaning against the wall, resting his eyes. When he heard Chen Chen's movements outside, he closed his eyes and asked, "What's wrong with you? Are you feeling unwell?"

Chen Chen lifted a corner of the curtain and hung it on the hook beside the carriage, then said to He Jinshu: "Ah Shu, we really can't do it so frequently in the future. Although I can keep up physically, I can't keep up with it later, so we should reduce the frequency in the future."

When He Jinshu heard this, he paused, and then he remembered the booklet about using ointment for maintenance.

However, this time he was in a hurry and it was too late to use it, so he took out a set of cotton clothes from the bag he brought with him, handed it to Chen Chen, and then said lightly: "Put this clothes underneath, it should be more comfortable."

After hearing this, Chen Zhen folded his clothes and put them under his buttocks, which really made him feel much more comfortable.

So he smiled and said to He Jinshu: "Ah Shu is still smart."

He Jinshu ignored him and leaned back in the carriage and closed his eyes. He was really a little sleepy.

After sending He Jinshu to the private school, Chen Chen went straight back to his house in town. After parking the carriage, he prepared to go out and buy some vegetables.

He left some of the mutton slaughtered yesterday for Grandma He and the others, and brought the rest over. In addition to the mutton, he also wanted to buy some pork to make stir-fried meat for Ah Shu.

Now that the weather is hot, you can also buy two pig ears and make a cold dish.

After He Jinshu arrived at the private school, he first gave the return gift to the teacher.

Although the teacher did not attend the wedding, the wedding gift was delivered, so He Jinshu should give him a return gift.

When Master Wang saw the return gift, he smiled and said, "You married a good husband, didn't you?"

The wine and snacks were not cheap, and there was also something wrapped in oil paper. Mr. Wang couldn't tell what was inside.

He Jinshu just nodded lightly when he heard this.

Seeing that He Jinshu didn't want to talk more, Mr. Wang didn't force him.

So I changed the subject and asked, "What are your plans for the future? The Autumn Examination will be held in August next year. Do you want to go to the academy or stay here?"

"I want to stay here." He Jinshu said lightly.

Upon hearing this, Master Wang said, "My abilities are limited. I can only ask someone to find you some past exam papers. Whether you can pass the exam depends on yourself."

"I know, thank you, teacher." He Jinshu bowed to Master Wang and then said.

Upon hearing this, Mr. Wang didn't say anything. He just waved his hand and asked He Jinshu to go to morning reading.

He Jinshu went straight to the classroom where the class was held. Everyone was stunned when they saw him and did not say anything for a while.

However, He Jinshu ignored their abnormality, just nodded to them as usual, and then sat down in his seat to start morning reading.

After Chen Zhen came back from buying groceries, he started cleaning the room. He hadn't lived there for several days, so there was a lot of dust in the room.

After cleaning the room, he washed and cut the food he was going to make at noon. After finishing all this, since it was still early, he went to the carpenter's shop again.

He thought of going to the carpenter's shop to make a rocking chair for Grandpa He and Grandma He so that they would be more comfortable to sit on when they had nothing to do.

The owner of the carpenter shop was quite familiar with him because he had custom-made a rocking chair for them before and made some money for the shop.

Seeing Chen Chen coming, the shopkeeper asked with a smile, "What are you ordering this time, Brother Chen?"

"I want to ask my uncle to make me a double rocking chair, for the elderly at home." Chen Chen said.

"Okay, no problem. Are you in a hurry?"

"Don't worry, just do it when you have time. When you're done, send it to the He family in Wujia Village for me. I'll give you the money first."

"Okay, I'll be able to send it to you in about three days."

Chen Chen nodded after hearing this, then paid the money and left the carpenter's shop.

After returning home, Chen Zhen saw that it was almost time to cook, so he went to the kitchen to cook.

After the morning class, He Jinshu packed up his textbooks and prepared to go back for dinner.

While packing his textbooks, Liu Yueda pretended to be concerned and asked, "Where are you going to eat, Brother He? Are you going home to live off your wife?"

He Jinshu glanced at him calmly after hearing this, and then said with a cold face: "It doesn't matter what I eat, what matters is whether I have food to eat."

Liu Yueda was choked by He Jinshu's words and couldn't find a rebuttal for a moment, but he still said stubbornly: "I rely on my husband for a living, what's there to be proud of?"

This time, He Jinshu ignored him, took the book box and left.

Not long after he left the house, he ran into Chen Chen who came to look for him. Seeing Chen Chen, He Jinshu's expression softened, and then he said to Chen Chen: "You don't have to come to pick me up in the future, I can go back by myself."

"It's okay, Ah Shu. It's not far anyway. I'll just take a walk." Chen Chen said indifferently.

He Jinshu knew that he couldn't persuade him, so he just let him go.

Afterwards, the two of them went home to eat. After finishing their meal, He Jinshu said to Chen Chen, "I'm going out for a while."

"What are you going to do?" Chen Chen said while clearing the dishes.

"I have something to do. I'll be back soon."

"Can't you tell me?"
