Hearing Chen Ermao's words, Chen Xiaobei, your heart skipped a beat.
In order not to be seen by others, he deliberately walked far away from the village to the north of the village, but he still couldn't escape Chen Ermao's eyes, which meant that he must have been staring at him somewhere.
I shudder when I think of this Chen Xiaobei.
Seeing Chen Qiaoer's frightened and panicked look, Chen Xiaobei was a little annoyed. He took a step forward and asked in a deep voice, "Chen Ermao, what are you doing here again?"
"Brother Xiaobei, think about what happened yesterday. Let me tell you, you can't lose to Cui Hongyu when you get to Baihualou. It's not impossible to become a top star with his appearance. She is very popular there and drinks hot food.
As long as there is a leak between your fingers, it will be enough for you and Qiaoer."
The more he spoke, the more outrageous he became. Chen Xiaobei was so angry that his teeth itched.
Even if I'm not related to Cui Hongyu, I can't just watch you push people into the fire pit. What kind of place is Baihua Building?
Chen Xiaobei did not say a word, but turned around and pulled Chen Qiaoer back into the house.
Then he took out two taels of silver from under the bed and came to Chen Ermao.
He held the silver in one hand and waved it in front of Chen Ermao.
"Chen Ermao, I'll give you the money. Let's settle Qiao'er's matter. Don't pester me again in the future."
Chen Ermao's eyes swept over the two pieces of silver, but he didn't take them.
"Chen Xiaobei, you are mistaken. The two taels of silver you owe me are profitable to us. It has been five days now."
"The interest must be half a tael anyway."
Play with me on this.
Chen Xiaobei sneered, turned his hand, took the money back, and put it in his pocket.
"You have already taken the money, so please take it back."
Chen Ermao's eyes widened, "What's wrong? Chen Xiaobei, if you dare to play tricks with me, you won't be afraid of the future..."
"What's the future? There is no future for you and me."
Chen Xiaobei said resolutely, but Chen Ermao rolled his eyes and thought about it. Looking at the two taels of silver that he was about to get, he didn't even have one now.
A good man doesn't want to suffer immediate losses. "Hey, brother Xiaobei, I was joking with you just now. Don't be impatient. Two taels are two taels. We are brothers, how can I ask for profit from you?"
Seeing Chen Ermao's expression change, Chen Xiaobei felt uneasy. He shouted at the top of his voice, "Second Aunt, Dachun, come quickly."
This voice startled Chen Ermao, "Brother Xiaobei, what are you doing? I told you, two ounces is two ounces."
"Chen Ermao, don't be afraid. I asked Brother Da Chun to come here just to be a witness."
Soon after hearing the shouting, Dachun came over with a hoe.
Although Chen Ermao was arrogant in front of Chen Xiaobei, he was really a little frightened when he saw Dachun.
Chen Dachun is tall and strong, and he has strength from farming every day. If he really wants to fight, Chen Ermao is really no match for him.
"Brother Dachun, please don't do anything. I'm here to tell Brother Xiaobei something. Say something."
Xiumei came over and saw this scene, and quickly stepped forward to block the door of the house. She turned to Qiaoer and said to Qiaoer, "Don't be afraid, Qiaoer, the second aunt is here."
Seeing this scene made Chen Xiaobei's heart heat up.
This brother Dachun is very good at dealing with things, and he really takes care of things when he encounters them.
"Brother Dachun, don't do anything. I asked you to come here to be a witness. I was unlucky a few days ago and lost two taels of silver to Brother Ermao. Today he came to ask for a debt, so I gave him the two taels of silver.
From now on this matter will be settled."
Seeing how he spoke so lightly, Xiumei was shocked.
Chen Xiaobei was actually able to take out two taels of silver.
A thought quickly flashed in her mind, that is, Chen Xiaobei had been sneaking into the mountains at night for the past two days.
He must have found a way to make a fortune in the mountains.
Dachun shook his head helplessly.
Two taels of silver, this is a huge amount of money. Even if I go to the city to work, I'm afraid I will have to work for a year.
Taking two taels of silver, Chen Ermao said a few words, turned around and left.
Dachun sighed helplessly again, "Oh, it's a pity that two taels of silver were spent on feeding the dog."
Xiumei did not sigh, but gave Chen Xiaobei a few words and took Da Chun'er back to her home.
As soon as he got home, he pulled Da Chun'er into the back room, "Dachun, you know, what has Xiaobei been doing these two days?"
Dachun shook his head, "I was at home at night and didn't go with him, so how would I know."
Xiumei then said, "Oh, look at him, in just two days of hard work, he was able to come up with two taels of silver. This silver was definitely not given by the Cui family."
"So I guess he must have found some way to make a fortune in the mountains."
Upon hearing this, Chen Dachun immediately came back to his senses, "That makes sense, otherwise how could he get two taels of silver?"
After saying that, Dachun turned around and walked out, "I'll go ask him and see what he did!"
Xiumei Che quickly grabbed her silly son and said, "You are really stupid. How can you ask about getting rich in person? You secretly follow him tonight to see what he is going to do in the mountains."
After sleeping for a while at home, Chen Xiaobei packed up again and prepared to go into the mountains, but this time he had a second thought and decided to take Chen Qiaoer with him.
Because if the pheasants don't go back, there will be too many pheasant eggs left at the site, and Chen Qiaoer will have to help take them back.
In order to make it easier to walk at night, he also made a torch, wrapped the old mosquito net at home around a branch, poured a lot of vegetable oil on it, and prepared a fire twister.
After everything was ready, the two of them walked towards the mountains while it was still early.
I heard Chen Xiaobei go out.
Chen Dachun also put on a hatchet and walked out of the door, following behind at a distance.
As soon as she left the village, Chen Dachun'er felt something was wrong.
There was a sneaky head on the roadside in front of me. It was none other than the idiot from this village.
Seeing Er Lunzi, Dachun felt a little uncomfortable, because Er Lunzi usually hung out with Chen Ermao every day.
What does it mean to follow Chen Xiaobei secretly?
Chen Dachun distanced himself and followed Er Leng from a distance.
As for Chen Xiaobei, who was walking in front, he didn't even think that someone would be following him behind him. His thoughts were all on the pheasant.
In this way, Chen Xiaobei knew nothing and took Qiaoer into Qingniu Mountain.
Chen Er was stunned and chased him to the foot of the mountain. He hesitated for a moment but did not go in. Instead, he turned around and walked back.
Dachun hid in the bushes and waited until Chen Er was gone. Then he straightened up.
At this time, he was a little confused, should he tell Chen Xiaobei? If he told Chen Xiaobei, wouldn't it mean that he was following him, but what if he didn't tell Chen Xiaobei?
After much deliberation, Dachun finally gave up the idea of reminding Chen Xiaobei.
In his opinion, Chen Ermao just followed the Chen brothers and sisters for a while and did nothing else.
At this time, on the mountain, Chen Xiaobei and Chen Qiaoer climbed up the tree and waited patiently for dark.
