Lu Sanzhu got on the carriage, panting, and took a few swigs from his water flask. Once the carriage started moving towards the escort agency, he squinted and said, "I just borrowed the Shopkeeper's backyard. Climbed up the tree in their yard, sat up there, and watched and listened to the whole thing."
People in the carriage, "..."
Is that why you're coming back so late? But that's not important. Grandma Lu and the others are also interested in what happened next with the Chen family.
"Tell me quickly, how did it end? Did they have to pay?"
Lu Sanzhu nodded, "They did. Those two argued for a while, neither wanting to back down. But it's a fact that the assistant stole something. Since it's been discovered, he has to compensate. Though ten times is really excessive, he couldn't possibly come up with that amount."
"After all the arguing, Chen He decided to have him compensate five times. This means the assistant worked for the Chen family for two months for free, without earning any wages."
The assistant was still unwilling and kept arguing, but in the end, it settled with him compensating three times.
Chen He was not happy about it, but he could at least save a little face.
So, the assistant gave the money, grumbling, and left.
Lu Sanzhu said, "I have a feeling that this assistant won't just let this slide. The way he looked, he's definitely going to retaliate against the Chen family's grocery store."
Grandma Lu thought the same way. A dishonest assistant reveals his true character; he won't be willing to take a loss.
Lu Sanzhu continued, "It's not just me; Chen He also thinks the same way. He told his wife, who came rushing over later, that they'll temporarily close the store from tomorrow. They'll rest for a few days and decide later. Tomorrow, they're going back to the city for a few days."
He clicked his tongue, "What's going on in Chen He's head? The grocery store's business is already so poor, the assistant just got fired. Instead of personally managing the store and hiring a new assistant, he's thinking of closing it. Closing the store for a few days means losing money for those days. Is he dumb?"
Shu Yu leaned against the carriage wall, coolly saying, "He's not dumb. The benefits he can get from the city must be much greater. Otherwise, why would the entire Chen family stay there and not come back? Chen He finally came back, only for one day, yet he's hurrying over there?"
They just don't know what those benefits are, but they must be much more than keeping the grocery store open for a few days.
Upon hearing this, Grandma Lu clapped her hands together, "That's perfect. Since he's going to the city tomorrow, we'll go along. That way, we can find Chen Bing and give him a good beating."
Grandma Lu was quite excited. She never expected that on her first day here, she would reunite with her sister on the second day and have a chance to beat up Chen Bing, that old bastard, on the third day.
Lu Sanzhu, on the side, agreed, "Right, I'll gather a few more people... no, we just need Ying Dong and Ying Xi. One of them can take on ten."
Mother and son grew more and more excited, slowly beginning to discuss the weapons they would use.
As the carriage neared the escort agency, in their hearts, Chen Bing was already as good as dead.
Shu Yu chuckled and said, "Grandma, you plan to find Chen Bing and just beat him up? Is that all?"
Grandma Lu paused, then frowned.
Yeah, what else could they do besides giving him a beating?
Just like when they stormed the Ruan family's gate in the past, the old Ruan's lady lived carefree for over ten years after that, didn't she?
