Now that the weather has started to heat up, the charcoal fire business can only be suspended.

Bie Ye originally planned to stockpile some to buy medicine in the coming year, but the letter made him dispel this idea.

He went out early in the morning.

After Gu Rao washed up, she came to the main hall, but she didn't see Bie Ye, so she asked the servants.

"Why didn't you see your husband?"

Xiao Liu replied, "Master went out early in the morning."

Gu Rao asked, "Did you go out after eating?"

Xiao Liu shook his head.

"Master got up too early, and the kitchen hasn't prepared breakfast yet."

Gu Rao frowned, a little worried that Bie Ye would not be willing to spend money to buy breakfast outside.

"Did he say when he'd be back?"

Xiao Liu smiled and said, "Master knew Madam wanted to ask, so he told me in advance. If you ask, just say he will be back at noon."

Gu Rao, "...he said where he went, and what did he do?"

Xiao Liu shook his head.

"No."

Gu Rao was a little disappointed, eating breakfast alone was a bit tasteless.

After breakfast, I didn't know what to do.

I can't get excited about doing anything.

noon.

Xiao Liu put the food on the table and persuaded, "Madam, you can eat first, after the master comes back, just ask the kitchen to make another."

Gu Rao felt a little uneasy when she thought of the letter that was quietly delivered to her bedroom last night.

Didn't he say he would be back at noon?

It is noon now!

Why haven't you come back yet?

Is there anything wrong?
Thinking of Youxi's self-confidence and the behavior of sending letters to force Bieye to make a decision, Gu Rao suddenly worried that he would take Bieye away directly.

Immediately couldn't sit still.

"I'll go out for a while, and I'll remove the lunch first, and heat it up when we come over."

After speaking, without waiting for Xiao Liu's reaction, he strode out.
-
There are several streets in Wild Boar Town, Gu Rao searched on both sides of the river, but couldn't find any trace of Bie Ye, and became more and more flustered.

She didn't find Bieye, but met someone who was beyond her expectations.

——Don't become a talent.

At this time, Bie Chengcai was in a panic, being beaten and kicked by several thugs.

A group of people gathered around to watch.

"In broad daylight, it's not good to beat up a weak scholar like this?"

"Those beaters are fat and strong, let's keep our voices down, so as not to be beaten together."

"That scholar looks familiar, as if he's seen it somewhere before..."

……

After the leader beat up Bie Chengcai, he put down his harsh words and said, "I'll give you three more days, and if you don't pay back the 100 taels you owed after three days, I'll break your dog legs!"

Only then did the people around know that this person was Bie Chengcai who was kicked out of Qiushui Academy, and being surrounded and beaten by a group of people was not innocent, but he deserved it. Who made him owe 100 taels of silver to other people's gambling house?
Bie Chengcai hugged the thug's leg, and begged regardless of his appearance, "Brother, that's 100 taels of silver. I'm an ordinary person, how can I take out 100 taels of silver in three days!"

"Give me another year of grace, no, half a year, as long as half a year, I will definitely return all the 100 taels of silver!"

The thug kicked Bie Chengcai away and stared at him with dark eyes.

"Can't get it out within three days?"

"Okay, break your leg now!"

As he said that, he had to ask his subordinates to attack Bie Chengcai.

Don't be so frightened that you put your head in your hands.

"Stop hitting! Stop hitting, I'll pay it back. I'll definitely pay it back within three days!"

Only then did the thug put down his hand, and hummed heavily at Bie Chengcai.

"Dare to gamble without money, I think your life is too long!"

"In three days, I will come to collect the money in person, so be prepared."

Turning around and taking two steps, he turned back and smiled at Bie Chengcai, "Don't try to escape, you can't escape." But there was no smile in his eyes, only disregard and cruelty towards life.

Bie Chengcai was so frightened that he urinated, and the hem of his clothes was obviously wet with water.

The people around became more enthusiastic.

"I really didn't expect that a scholar would look like this, it's not shameful!"

"You're so timid, you peed out of fear!"

At this moment, Li Mo'er, who was covered in scars and had a child under the moon on her back, hurried over.

She ran to Bie Chengcai's side, trying to help him up, but just as her hand touched Bie Chengcai's arm, he slammed him away.

"Go away!"

"You also come to see my joke?"

Li Mo'er burst into tears.

"Sanggong, didn't you promise me not to gamble?"

"Why do you owe so much money again?"

"100 taels of silver, when will I be able to pay it back..."

Bie Chengcai glared at her angrily.

"If you hadn't insisted on marrying me, would I have lived in such poverty? There were so many women from rich families who wanted to marry me, but I had to marry you!"

Li Mo'er was stunned for a while, her expression changed from hurt to numb.

Sleeping in the same bed for so long, getting along day and night, is enough for her to see a person clearly.

However, it was too late for a girl to marry her husband, and she could only live by him in her life.

She doesn't even have her only brother. If she makes mistakes in her husband again, how can a woman live with a child who is not yet full moon?
She didn't even dare to think about such a day, and she was also reluctant to leave Bie Chengcai.

Regardless of whether he used her or not, or whether he had a trace of sincerity, they were already married, and they were destined to be bound together for the rest of their lives.

Suppressing the disappointment in my heart, I cheered up again, and stretched out my hands to Bie Chengcai to help him up again.

"Msister, there are too many people here, we will talk about it when we have something to say, and we will discuss it slowly when we pay back the money."

"There's always a way."

Bie Chengcai's face was gray and defeated, and he scratched his head with both hands irritably.

"any idea?"

"There are only three days. Where can I collect 100 taels of silver in these three days?"

"You can't get so much money if you sell me!"

sold……

Bie Chengcai suddenly had attention in his heart, looking at his wife and the child on his back, hope rekindled in his eyes.

If he didn't pay the 100 taels of silver, those people would definitely break his legs.

Two of his fingers have been cut off, and he can't lose his legs again!
"You're right, there will always be a way, let's go back first."

He belatedly realized that he had lost someone for so long, and when he thought of so many people watching his jokes, his complexion turned livid, and his pace gradually accelerated.

Li Mo'er quickly chased after her.

After the couple left, Gu Rao continued to look for someone.

She deliberately hid behind the crowd just now, and was not noticed by Bie Chengcai.

If it is seen by Bie Chengcai, it is very likely that he will be entangled again.

The less trouble, the better.
-
Gu Rao did not find Bie Ye, but was found by Bie Ye.

Bie Ye said, "I'm sorry, I left in such a hurry this morning that I didn't tell you where to go."

Gu Rao, "...I made a big fuss."

Bieye raised his hand and patted her head.

"I know what you're worried about."

"No matter when, I will never leave you alone."

Gu Rao's heart calmed down a little, and then she asked, "What did you do this morning?"

"Have you had breakfast yet?"

"Didn't you eat lunch?"
