SFS Chapter 181 Don’t think it will be easy!
Chapter 181 Don’t think it will be easy!
Qingfeng Academy is located in the north of the county town. There are few businesses here, mostly residential houses, few streets and many trees, so the environment is very quiet and peaceful. Cheng Yuexin said that this location is very well chosen and is perfect for study.
As soon as the two of them reached the door, a servant came out and asked, "Who are you looking for? I can go and inform them."
As expected, it was a college, and the servants were very polite. Cheng Yue politely bowed and said, "We are looking for Cheng Jun. Sorry to bother you, brother."
The servant responded and turned away. After a while, Cheng Jun came out quickly. When he saw Cheng Yue, his eyes lit up. "Aunt, uncle! Why are you here?"
He was just wondering who was looking for him. Since he entered the academy, his family members have never come to visit him once. Of course, he knew the reason and never thought too much about it.
Cheng Yue handed over the things in her hand and said with a smile: "We should have come to see you earlier, but we have been busy for a while and have no time.
You didn’t come home for the Dragon Boat Festival this time, and everyone in the family missed you, so they asked me and your uncle to come and see you!
These are food, you can share them with your good classmates. There is also some paper, I don’t know how to use it, so I’ll give it to you to practice calligraphy.”
She remembered that Cheng Jun came with a group of students to buy braised food. Two of them, who seemed to be very close to each other, took some extra food.
As for pens, ink, paper and inkstone, she really didn't know much about them and was afraid that if she bought the wrong ones, Cheng Jun would not be used to using them.
A warm current surged through Cheng Jun's heart. So this is what it felt like to have family come to visit. In the past, he would watch his classmates' families come to visit, and then he would enjoy the food he received for several days.
Then he took the things and grinned, "Thank you, aunt and uncle, I'm fine, you really don't have to come to see me specially.
In fact, I ate the rice dumplings made by my aunt during the Dragon Boat Festival. A classmate’s family bought a lot and sent someone to deliver them to me. I also tasted them. They were soft, glutinous, sweet and delicious! "
With the help of his aunt, his parents started a business, and the family became much more well-off. The last time he went home, he even had new clothes made. Before he left, his parents gave him a tael of silver, which is much better than before.
Cheng Yue was not surprised. All the prominent people in the county bought her rice dumplings and cakes. There were many children in the academy, so it was normal for Cheng Jun to eat them.
She still remembered that when they came together to buy braised food, there was a young man with extraordinary temperament, who looked like he came from a wealthy family.
"It's good to have eaten it. I took some more this time, so it's a good opportunity for you to share some."
Cheng Jun nodded, and Cheng Yue asked again, "Has anyone in the academy bullied you?"
"Don't worry, auntie, no one is bullying me!"
As Cheng Jun spoke, he looked at Chen An cautiously again. Especially since Chen Gen was expelled, the academy had been properly rectified and the atmosphere had improved.
Cheng Yue and Chen An smiled at each other. Looking at the look in this child's eyes, how could they not know what he was thinking?
"That's good. Your uncle and I won't come to the county town often in the future. If you have any questions, go to the braised food shop to find your cousin.
We will go back first. You should study hard and don't put too much pressure on yourself. You should learn to relax when you need to."
Cheng Jun is a hard-working person. He studies so hard that he forgets to eat and sleep. Especially after the family had a few words together during the wheat harvest last time, Cheng Jun's eyes were full of determination to work hard. She was afraid that he would work too hard and exhaust himself.
Cheng Jun felt warm in his heart and nodded, "Aunt, I understand. Health is the most important thing. I will definitely pay attention to it. Don't worry!"
Studying is hard, but without the support of a good body, even if you work hard and make progress, it will all be in vain in the end. What’s the point?
"Okay, go back now, we're leaving now."
Cheng Yue waved and watched from the door, so Cheng Jun had to go back with his things.
Song Zhibai and Gao Sheng were waiting for him behind the second gate. When Cheng Jun arrived, Gao Sheng came up to him and said, "Brother Cheng Jun, if you have anything good, share it with us!"
They had just seen that it was Cheng Jun's aunt who came. There was such a big bag, it would be strange if there was no food.
Song Zhibai tapped him with his folding fan, "Why are you so greedy!"
Gao Sheng chuckled, "It's because the amount you sent was too little. It's not even enough to fill my stomach. I just had a taste and it was gone..."
Chengji’s braised food is not expensive, but the cakes and rice dumplings are really not cheap. His family is poor now, so his parents are reluctant to buy things if they are a little expensive.
Song Zhibai opened his mouth but couldn't say anything, so he could only shake his head and laugh.
Cheng Jun raised the package in his hand and smiled sincerely and proudly: "My aunt took a lot of it specially so that I could share it with you. You all have a share!"
Gao Sheng smiled even more flatteringly now, "My aunt is so nice. I should have stepped forward to thank you just now."
"You'll have a chance to thank me later!" Song Zhibai said, then he remembered something. He heard from his uncle two days ago that a man named Zeng Youcai plotted against Cheng Yue, but ended up being plotted against instead.
Mr. Chen San greeted him and told him not to worry about it, and he didn’t know what was going on.
In short, Zeng Youcai is not a good person, so don't tell Cheng Jun about this to avoid disturbing him.
The three of them went to the dormitory while talking. It was noon, and it was perfect time to rest.
On the other side, Cheng Yue and Chen An were also preparing to go home. Before leaving, they went to the shop again and happened to run into Ji San.
Ji San was talking to Chen Lin. When he saw Cheng Yue and Chen An coming in, he hurried forward to salute and whispered:
"There's new news about Zeng Youcai. His two sons were rescued, but he had to sell both shops to raise enough money!"
It turned out that he had told her this on purpose. Cheng Yue asked again, "Where are the two kidnappers?"
Ji San said, "Don't worry, Madam Cheng, he has been sent away by our master. Zeng Youcai will never find him."
Cheng Yue thought that Master Chen San had helped a lot this time, and she had to think of how to thank him.
Ji San took out a wooden box, handed it to Cheng Yue and said, "Madam Cheng, this is three hundred taels. Zeng Youcai gave the kidnappers a total of six hundred taels. This half is for you from our master."
Mr. Chen San was so awesome?! He sent those two away and kept half of the money from her!
But think about it, Zeng Youcai wanted to harm her daughter, so it was reasonable for her to take his money.
Ji San left after he finished speaking. Cheng Yue felt worried holding the three hundred taels. If it weren't for Master Chen San, she would definitely not have gotten the money. How could she thank him?
Zeng Youcai was having an even harder time at this time. To be honest, he was just a wealthy man in the town, and his family fortune was not that profound. Now, his plan to plot against Cheng Yue failed, and his family fortune was almost gone.
Now he is regretting it so much, who knew that Mr. Chen Sanye had such a close relationship with Cheng Yue and the others, and he intervened directly. Suddenly he became a fish on the chopping board, at the mercy of others!
Cheng Yue couldn't afford to be harmed, but she had to let this anger out!
So he could only blame it on Chen Xianghua. If it weren't for her instigation, how could he have ended up in this situation!
Chen Xianghua was beaten so hard that she screamed and Zeng Dabao and Zeng Xiaobao were so scared that they ran into the bedroom and didn't come out, fearing that they would also be beaten.
Zeng Youcai vented for a while, but he was still angry. He almost forgot about the black-hearted Chen Ping, who was the culprit!
Having said that, he walked out of the house and headed straight for the county town. Now that he was in this state, Chen Ping would not have an easy life either!
