Chapter 73: Revisiting the Past



"What does this PUA mean?" He Jinshu asked curiously.

Chen Zhen had taught him how to pronounce both the pinyin and the English letters, and he could recognize them separately, so why couldn't he recognize them when they were combined?

"It's just brainwashing and mind control."

Upon hearing this, He Jinshu said, "I think you're trying to PUA me, right? You used to tell me every day that you were my partner and that if we didn't get married, I'd rob you. You also kept saying you could fight and make money, and you insisted on thinking you were the best man in the world and asking me to marry you. Isn't this brainwashing?"

"What? Are you going to bring up old things?" Chen Chen said, glancing at He Jinshu.

"If you bring up the past, I'll bring up the past too," Chen Chen said angrily. "The first time I gave someone flowers, you threw them away. And the time I brought you food, you knocked it over. I ended up feeding the pigs with the food I carefully prepared, and then I was sad for the whole afternoon."

After hearing what Chen Zhen said, He Jinshu said that he didn't lose it, but because he spoke too quietly, Chen Zhen didn't hear it clearly, so he asked again: "What did you say?"

However, He Jinshu did not say anything this time. He felt that he was really a little drunk and actually talked about this with Chen Chen in public. Fortunately, everyone was chatting and eating happily and no one paid attention to them, otherwise his image would really collapse completely.

At this time, He Sixuan saw that his father was talking to his father and ignored him, so he pulled He Jinshu and said, "Father, go down and play."

He was full and wanted to go downstairs to play with other children.

Upon hearing this, He Jinshu picked him up from the chair and asked Chen Fang and the others to take the two brothers out to play.

After eating for a while, the plates on the table were cleared away one after another, and then some after-meal tea and fruits were served. The fruits were some wild fruits picked from the mountains and some fruit trees planted by Shenjia Village.

After eating for a while, the children came back because the afternoon circus was about to begin again.

Seeing that the two children were sweating from playing, Chen Zhen took out a handkerchief and wiped them each. Then he and He Jinshu carried them to the stool and let them watch the performance.

When I was halfway through the performance, I suddenly saw Uncle Wang, Aunt Wang and a few people from Wangji Village coming, and they looked a little anxious.

When they saw Shen Chen and Shen's mother sitting at this table, they walked straight over here.

Seeing this, the Shen family stood up and went to see what was going on.

Although Aunt Wang looked anxious when she saw everyone, she still suppressed her emotions and said to Mother Shen: “Let’s talk while we walk.”

Although the group was a little confused when they saw this, they decided to follow and see what was going on.

Chen Zhen returned to the table and said to He Jinshu, "I'm going to go see what's going on with Aunt Wang. You stay here and look after the child."

Seeing this, He Jinshu said, "I'll go with you."

Looking at the expressions of that group of people, He Jinshu felt that the matter might not be simple, otherwise it would be well known that Aunt Wang had a good relationship with the Shen family. Normal matters would definitely not allow them to rush over at this time, and their expressions were so abnormal.

Upon hearing this, Chen Chen said to his two sons, "Would you like to watch the play here with your great-grandmother and great-grandmother, or go back to your grandmother's house with your father and father?"

The two sons first looked at their fathers, then looked at the performance on the stage, and finally, reluctantly, stretched out their arms and let their fathers pick them up.

After being picked up, He Sixuan said to Chen Chen aggrievedly: "Dad, I'll watch it again next time."

As Chen Zhen carried him and chased after Mother Shen and the others, he comforted him, "Okay, when I have time, Dad will take you to the town to see it."

After hearing this, He Sixuan no longer felt aggrieved and even smiled happily.

After they left the threshing ground, Aunt Wang and the others finally explained the reason.

It turned out that when the people of Wangji Village went to Luozhou to sell seasonings, someone pointed out that the vinegar they sold was poisonous. The person who was poisoned was a new scholar in Luozhou Prefecture this year.

The man then reported the matter to the authorities, and the entire group was detained in Luozhou Prefecture. The authorities sent someone to report that poisoning a scholar who had just passed the imperial examination was a serious crime, but considering that they were only selling seasonings, the authorities could give them a lighter punishment.

But they must identify the real murderer, otherwise they will have to take the blame.

After hearing these words, Chen Zhen said angrily: "That's nonsense. If I meet that damn Luozhou prefect, I will definitely ask him if he has ever eaten food cooked with vinegar. He ate my seasoning and still spewed shit here. That seasoning is really fed to the dog."

"Feed the dog." He Sixuan in his arms also said with anger on his face. Although he didn't know why his father was angry, he was also angry when he saw his father angry.

"That's enough," Shen's mother said disdainfully, "be careful if someone hears me or I'll punish you for disrespecting a court official."

Aunt Wang also said at this time: "Yes, Brother Zhen, now is not the time to curse. Let's find a way to rescue Zheng Kun and the others first."

"Yes." Other people in Wangji Village also echoed.

This team of more than ten people are all from Wangji Village. What should they do if something really happens?

Upon hearing this, He Jinshu asked, "Aunt Wang, where is the person who informed you of this now?"

"He's gone. He gave us the tokens that Zheng Kun and the others had on them and left." Aunt Wang said.

He Jinshu nodded slightly upon hearing this, and then comforted them, "This incident might be directed at our Wujia Village or our family. Before we go to Luozhou, Brother Wang and the others should be safe, so you don't have to worry too much."

Aunt Wang was a little worried when she heard this and said, "Jinshu, are you saying you're going to Luozhou? This incident is obviously targeting you. If you go there like this, will you be in danger?"

"It's okay, don't worry, I know what I'm doing. I will bring them back safely when the time comes." He Jinshu said comfortingly.

Aunt Wang wiped her tears and said, "What on earth is going on? We've been eating it for so long and nothing happened, so why did that person get poisoned?"

"He is framing me." Shen Chen said indignantly.

He Jinshu patted him on the back and told him to say less, then he said to Shen's mother: "Mom, let's go home first. I will find a way to deal with this matter. You don't have to worry too much."

Mother Shen and the others nodded, and Brother Shen said at this time: "When you go to Luozhou, tell me, and I will go with you."

"No need, big brother, just stay at home and help take care of the house." He Jinshu declined, "You guys don't know much about these official affairs, I can handle it."
