After crossing over: kidnapping a female hunter to be the stepfather of the three cubs

Chapter 258 Zhou Wencong

"Isn't it? Now we're just waiting for the chili peppers from your place. With that stuff, wouldn't our Treasure Pavilion soar to the sky?"

"Pfft, it's not that exaggerated..." Huanxi laughed.

"It's no exaggeration, your Shuxiangju is almost selling for a fortune in town. I ate there once and I still miss it."

"But brother, what were you doing recently? My wife was at home taking care of things, and Shuxiangju was quite popular in the town at that time."

Xu Qingzhao smiled slightly and said apologetically:

"I had some family matters during that time, so my wife had to work so hard. Don't worry, it won't happen again in the future."

Huanxi pulled her hand, signaling her not to take it to heart.

Xu Qingzhao nodded and looked at her lovingly.

Chen Yunrui: Don’t kill dogs like this…

"By the way, Master Chen, the school in our village has been completed. When will the teacher be free to come over?"

Chen Yunrui, who hadn't even finished his meal, slapped his forehead when he heard this and quickly said, "There's a letter, there's a letter. He came a few days ago and is staying at my house. I'll go see him after I finish eating. My cousin misses you too and keeps talking about you to me."

Huanxi was delighted, then looked at Chen Yunrui speechlessly.

"It's such a big deal, and you didn't even send me a message so I could go visit you. It's so rude to go now..."

"I was so busy I forgot, didn't I? But his mother hasn't been feeling well lately. You know, older people are most likely to get sick during this off-season."

"Then could you please tell me what kind of illness Master's wife has? Besides Shuxiangju, my family also has a herb garden with some nourishing herbs. If you need them, feel free to ask for them."

"Ah, it's really pitiful. His family used to be wealthy merchants in Shang'an Prefecture. Their surname was Zhou. They used to run a trading company, so this kid never had to worry about food and clothing. After passing the imperial examination, he returned home and started living off his savings. But then his father was set up by someone and lost a lot of money..."

"What is a black trap?" Huanxi asked in confusion.

"It was all those dirty business dealings. Later, his father owed too much debt and was devastated, and he passed away not long after. Later, his mother suffered from heart palpitations because of this, and it has been like this for many years... Sigh..."

Huanxi also sighed secretly... This Master Zhou, she still remembered what Chen Yunrui said, that this Master Zhou now makes a living by copying books and also takes care of the children in the charity hall. It must be said that this master has a very good character.

After dinner, the group went to Chen's house again. Boss Chen was not at home today, but sister Luo Shan was wandering around the house. When she saw her cousin coming back, she ran over to say hello.

Chen Yunrui was ready to accept the greeting from his dear cousin, but Su Luoshan ran straight behind him and greeted Huanxi.

"Sister Huanxi! You're here! I haven't seen you for a long time. I really miss the food at Shuxiangju~"

Chen Yunrui beside him was disheveled in the wind. This girl... was no longer his dear cousin... Normally, his cousin would come running to greet him when he returned home...

Huanxi smiled and said, "Let's go to Shuxiangju. I'll treat you."

"Hehe, then I'm shameless~" She noticed Xu Qingzhao behind her, blinked her big eyes and asked:

"Huh? I haven't seen this brother before? Is he your husband, Sister Huanxi?"

"My surname is Xu, and I am Huanyi's husband. Miss Su is pleased to meet you."

Su Luoshan nudged Huanxi lightly with her elbow and said with a sly smile:

"Sister, you are so lucky... This Mr. Xu is so handsome..."

Huanxi patted her shoulder and said, "What nonsense are you talking about, little girl?"

"Hahahaha"

The group went to the courtyard where Master Zhou was staying temporarily, and they smelled a strong smell of medicine before they even entered.

"Brother Zhou, I brought the villagers from Dashi Village to visit you. Is it convenient for you?" Chen Yunrui shouted inside.

After a while, the courtyard gate opened. A young man in a dark blue cotton gown opened the door. The man was thin and his hair was wrapped with a cloth strip, but he had a clear gaze and a handsome face. He was obviously a decent person.

"Come in, come in. My mother just took some medicine and went to bed. How about we go somewhere else to talk?"

"Then let's go to the front hall and let your aunt have a good rest." Chen Yunrui said.

He introduced several people along the way, and Huanxi then learned that Master Zhou's full name was Zhou Wencong.

After sitting down and serving tea, Huanxi said straight to the point:

"Master Zhou, nice to meet you. I'm from Dashi Village. My surname is Zhao. Master, you can call me Sister Huanxi. This is my fiancé, his surname is Xu, and his name is Xu Qingzhao."

"Ms. Zhao, nice to meet you. I was supposed to go to Dashi Village a few days ago, but my mother was seriously ill, so I was delayed. I wonder what the situation is like in Dashi Village now?"

"The school in Dashi Village has been repaired, and the place where you will rest has also been repaired and is waiting for you to move in. The village has also found someone who can help take care of your aunt, so you can rest assured."

Master Zhou nodded in satisfaction and then asked:

"I wonder how many children are going to school this time? To be honest, I have a lot of books... I'm afraid I'll need an extra carriage if I move..."

Huanxi smiled and said, "The school is divided into boys' and girls' schools. Let's not talk about the girls' school for now. There are 28 children who have signed up for the boys' school this time. However, the children in the village are all tough, so I'm afraid the teacher will have to put in more effort."

"Hey... that's not right. Children, it's better to be tough when they are young. I was also a bit of a jerk when I was young, and I wasn't afraid of being laughed at by girls..."

The few of them were chatting happily, and they also told Master Zhou that they had a medicine garden at home and that there was a doctor in the village, which was basically the same as in the city.

He even mentioned the recent large-scale construction in the village to a few people, which caused them to be amazed.

"I can't believe the village has developed so much. I'm afraid Dashi Village will become almost like a small county town in the future..."

"Yes, cousin, you can take me out to play when the time comes~"

Chen Yunrui was still angry that Su Luoshan had not greeted him first, so he waved his hand and said:

"What are you kidding about? Our wedding is coming soon. I'll take you out after we get married."

When these words were spoken, Huanxi was also shocked.

This Chen Yunrui looks about the same age as her, around nineteen or twenty years old. This Su Luoshan is still young!!!

How can this be! This is just a child! Chen Yunrui! I despise you!

"Let's not talk about this! I just had my coming-of-age ceremony. You promised me to wait for a while, cousin!" Su Luoshan puffed out her cheeks, looking like an angry pufferfish.

Chen Yunrui laughed dryly as if he had caught something wrong. Huanxi was so frightened that her eyes almost popped out of her head...

"You two... I wonder when your wedding is going to be?" Huanxi asked hesitantly.
