24　　Ma Liu said: "Okay, it's settled."

　　"I won't keep you here tonight, brother Ma Liu. I'll treat you to a drink when I have the chance."

　　Chen Jie said with a smile. After hearing this, Ma Liu smiled and said, "Okay, I'll wait for this drink with my brother."

　　After saying that, he turned around and left with his men.

　　Looking at his leaving back, Chen Jie's eyes narrowed and a hint of murderous intent flashed across his eyes!

　　We can't keep this Ma Liu!

　　At this time, Ma Liu walked out of Chen Jiusi's yard. The younger brother who followed him came up and asked, "Sixth brother, you just came out like this?"

　　Ma Liu looked back at the dilapidated courtyard of the Chen family and said, "This Chen Jiusi is so lucky that he became Doctor Bai's apprentice. This matter is not easy to handle. I have to go back and tell the young master."

　　Ma Liu rushed to the town.

　　When the villagers saw that the excitement was over, they all dispersed, but they shook their heads as they left.

　　"Chen Jiusi is finished. He owes such a huge sum of money. This family will collapse sooner or later."

　　"Yes, twenty-five taels of silver, how can he possibly get that? He even has to borrow from the Bai family. The Bai family owes him that!"

　　"You deserve it. I've long said he was a gambler. Now look what happens. Wait till your hands and feet are cut off."

　　The group of people dispersed, leaving only Uncle Erba.

　　Uncle Erba looked at Chen Jie and said, "Ninety-four, this?"

　　Chen Jie didn't explain much, just said: "Well, uncle, it's okay, I can handle it."

　　"Hey, kid, I have two taels of silver here. If you need it, I'll give it to you."

　　Chen Jie waved his hand and said, "No need, uncle. Huzi is not a child anymore. Save this money for Huzi to get married."

　　"Brother, I'm not in a hurry, let me deal with your matter first."

　　Hu Zi said, Chen Jie heard it and said: "Don't worry, your father and your mother are not in a hurry, okay, uncle, Hu Zi, I can really solve it, by the way, here are some peanuts, uncle, take them back and eat them."

　　Uncle Erba waved his hands and said, "No, no, you said you can solve it, I believe you, but you must tell me if you need money."

　　"Got it, uncle."

　　Chen Erba took Hu Zi away, and the whole yard became quiet for a while.

　　Chen Jie turned around and looked at Su Yunjin, who was at a loss. At this time, there was only one number in Su Yunjin's mind: twenty-five.

　　Twenty-five taels of silver! How can I repay this?

　　For the Chen family at that time, twenty-five taels of silver was an astronomical figure.

　　When Chen Jie saw Su Yunjin like this, he felt a pain in his heart. He made this woman worry about him again.

　　Su Yunjin felt Chen Jie's gaze and met his gaze with a smile that was uglier than crying: "Husband, don't worry, it's okay, there will be a way..."

Chapter 33 Wife, I Can Do It

　　Crack!

　　Under the dim oil lamp, the little kid secretly put a fried peanut into his mouth, chewed it up, and had a happy face.

　　The small eyes looked at the two adults under the oil lamp.

　　At this time, the two adults were seen. The elder sister looked worried, and the brother-in-law was silent, looking a little angry.

　　"Just be it."

　　Su Yunjin spoke, as if she had made a great decision, and placed her mother's copper-plated silver hairpin on the table.

　　Then he added, "I didn't eat much of the jar of meat oil at home, so I should be able to sell it for some money."

　　"As for the food at home, keep five pounds for emergencies, and sell the rest. Ask the neighbors if they want any. Also..."

　　Su Yunjin told Chen Jie that there were things at home that could be sold.

　　But no matter how you calculate it, all these belongings added together can't be sold for more than two taels of silver.

　　But the gap is twenty-five taels. What should I do?

　　Su Yunjin was so anxious that she saw a blister forming under her lip.

　　Looking at Su Yunjin who was constantly calculating, she didn't even notice that her hair was loose. A strand of hair floated to her lips, and while she was talking, it was eaten into her mouth.

　　Seeing this, Chen Jie reached out to help her lift her hair away.

　　She was stunned, then looked at Chen Jie anxiously and said, "Did you hear me?"

　　"Yeah, I heard it."

　　"So what do you think?"

　　Chen Jie looked at Su Yunjin and said, "Don't worry, I have thought of a solution."

　　"You really can't borrow twenty-five taels from Doctor Bai. You just became Doctor Bai's apprentice, and it's impossible for him to lend you so much money."

　　Chen Jie said at this time: "Well, you are right, but I didn't ask Doctor Bai to lend me money, madam, do you believe me?"

　　Su Yunjin was stunned and looked at him.

　　Chen Jie looked at her with eyes as soft as water. Under the dim oil lamp, their eyes met and ripples appeared in their eyes.

　　Su Yunjin seemed to melt under this gaze.

　　Crack!

　　Just when the two were looking at each other affectionately, a discordant voice suddenly sounded, and the little kid put another peanut into his mouth and chewed it with satisfaction.

　　Su Yunjin came back to her senses, her face flushed slightly, she lowered her head and continued to settle the accounts.

　　Chen Jie glared at the little kid fiercely, but found that the little kid ignored him. He picked his nose and saw his brother-in-law looking at him.

　　She grabbed a peanut with her little hand that had just picked her nose and said, "Brother-in-law, want some?"

　　"Eat it yourself."

　　"oh."

　　Put it in your mouth, pop...

　　The little mouth moved up and down like a hamster.

　　Chen Jie was helpless. Seeing Su Yunjin starting to settle accounts again, he said, "My wife, it's getting late. Go to bed. I can handle this myself."

　　After hearing this, Su Yunjin frowned and asked, "How do you solve it?"

　　Chen Jie knew that if he didn't reveal some truth, his wife would not be able to sleep.

　　"Tomorrow, give me the eight cents in your pocket, and I'll go to my uncle Erba to borrow another two cents. When I have one ounce, I'll go find my master. I was actually framed in this matter. At the beginning..."

　　Chen Jie explained how he was framed.

　　Su Yunjin frowned, bit his lower lip, and looked thoughtful.

　　"If this happened in the past, we would definitely not be able to do anything, but now I have a master. My disciple has been tricked like this, so my master will definitely help me."

　　"But Doctor Bai..."

　　"My master certainly can't do that, but don't forget, my master's son-in-law is Wu Zhong, the manager of the fish pen, and he can talk to Yu Biao directly. Isn't it just a matter of a word from them? And I'm going to pay back the principal, so can't we just accept our bad luck?"

　　After hearing this, Su Yunjin finally relaxed her brows and nodded, "Husband, if this is the case, it would be great."

　　Chen Jie smiled and said, "You can rest assured now, Ruirui. Serve your sister some food. You didn't even have a good dinner."

　　Hearing Chen Jie's call, Xiao Douding immediately stood up and said, "Yes."

　　Then she quickly took the pork elbow and steamed buns that her brother-in-law didn't allow her to eat, put them in front of her sister, and then stared at her sister eagerly.

　　Chen Jie then cut the bun with a knife, stuffed a few pieces of pork elbow into it, and handed it to Su Yunjin, saying, "Try it."

　　Su Yunjin took the steamed bun with pork elbow from Chen Jie and took a small bite.

　　The little kid at the side was drooling: "Sister, what does it taste like?"

　　Chen Jie looked at the little kid and said, "Want to eat? This belongs to your sister."

　　"I'm not eating it, I just want to smell it."

　　Chen Jie laughed when he heard that. Su Yunjin glared at him and said, "Don't tease Ruirui. Sister can't eat it. I'll give it to you."

　　"no."

　　As Chen explained, Xiao Douding also said, "Sister eats, Ruirui is just asking, he doesn't want to eat."

　　Chen Jie patted Ruirui's little head and said, "You are so good. This one is for your sister. Brother-in-law will pick another one for you, okay?"

　　"Uh-huh."

　　Ruirui nodded vigorously.

　　Chen Jie made another one in the same way, and the two sisters ate it with great relish.

　　Seeing them eating so happily, Chen Jie felt a little satisfied, but when he turned around, a hint of murderous intent appeared in his eyes. Ma Liu and Yu Sanliu, these two bastards who were thinking about his wife, must not be kept.

　　He would never allow Su Yunjin to fall into the same situation as Cui'er who jumped into the well.

　　At this time in Xiantao Town, at the Yu family mansion.

　　Yu Sanliu was sitting in front of a table with all kinds of delicious food on it. A pretty young woman was feeding him.

　　Ma Liu stood behind him with his hands hanging down.

　　Yu Sanliu chewed the shrimp that the young woman had peeled, took a sip of wine and said, "Are you saying that Chen Jiusi became Bai Wenjing's apprentice?"

　　"yes."

　　"Oh... this is a bit troublesome, what did you do?"
