What if he got lucky and won? So she was really worried. She never expected that Zhou Muyu didn't even give God this chance, and even his luck was gone.
Very good, very good...
Zhou Muyi lay in bed for two days after being seriously ill before he opened his eyes. As a result, the Ye family was in an uproar. These days, the Ye family was squeezed out by the Zhao family and had been bankrupt for many days.
As everyone knows Madam Zhao's wealth and methods, everyone would step on the Ye family in order to curry favor with Madam Zhao. This shows how unlucky the Ye family is.
They had already sold their ancestral home and were living on coarse food, just waiting for their son-in-law to pass the high school entrance exam so that their family could benefit from it.
Who would have thought...
"Liar, liar...big liar..."
The entire Ye family angrily slammed open the door of the Zhou family's house, rushed in, and pulled Zhou Muyi, whose fever had just subsided, out of bed.
"What are you doing? What are you doing..."
Old Mrs. Zhou screamed, and Ye Xiyan also ran out of the house and asked, "Dad, brother, what happened to you? Mu Yu is still sick..."
"He's not sick at all, he's just lying to you. This coward must have known he wouldn't pass the exam, so he's pretending to be sick..."
Or perhaps it could be said that shameless people understand shameless people best. Zhou Mu probably never expected that he and his father-in-law were actually birds of a feather.
"You're talking nonsense! How could I possibly be faking illness? I've been preparing for the county exam for so long, toiling away every night. Cough cough cough... Just wait. In three years, I'll definitely pass..."
Zhou Mu insisted stiffly. Yes, the purpose of his pretending to be sick was to make the people of the Ye family think that he was not without talent, but just unlucky.
In this way, the Ye family will continue to support him for three years.
But, will the Ye family believe it?
The Ye family is a business family that exploits the people. They were deceived by a weakling like him. Master Ye was furious: "You are still lying, you bastard."
As he said that, Master Ye rushed up and slapped Zhou Muyu twice to wake him up.
"How dare you hit the scholar..."
"You idiot scholar, if you go out and ask around now, you'll be the laughing stock of the entire county. If it weren't for you, if it weren't for you, my Ye family would be bankrupt. I'll beat you to death, you little bastard..."
Zhou Muyu was completely like a scholar and a scoundrel to Mr. Ye. After a round of punches, Zhou Muyu knelt down and begged for mercy.
"Father-in-law, please spare my life..."
Ye Xiyan was dumbfounded. She used to think that even though Zhou Muqi had a bad temper, he still had some courage. She didn't expect him to be so cowardly?
"Dad, stop hitting me. Beating a scholar to death is a serious crime," Ye Xiyan cried.
Master Ye finally stopped and said, "Okay, I won't hit you anymore. Now, everyone in the Zhou family, get out of this house immediately. This house belongs to our Ye family..."
The Ye family sold the big house and are now renting a house outside. This small house is just right for them to live in. It seems that what the old man said was right. He would never sell the ancestral home, so he kept it.
Although the Ye family is tyrannical and incompetent, they still have some assets. The Zhou family really has... nothing.
In order to marry Ye Xiyan, he used all his land and property to make up the betrothal gift, eighty-eight taels of silver.
"Father-in-law, you are going to force me to death. My hometown has nothing left. You want me to take Xiyan to the streets to beg for food and scold? I spent all my money to marry Xiyan..."
Zhou Mu's eyes were completely red.
"What? Eighty-eight taels ruined your family. This amount was decent back then. You're so poor, yet you're still pretending to be rich. Do you think you're some kind of scholar? Get out of here."
Master Ye’s firepower is not to be underestimated. He is strong and muscular, and can defeat several people at once.
