Chapter 389 People’s hearts are unpredictable
"Master, you are here..."

Xiaoqian was the first to see Zhang Chuba come in. Her bored face quickly showed joy, and she went up to greet him enthusiastically, as if she had met a relative.

She was wearing a simple long dress, neatly dressed and spotless.

Although she was a fox demon with magical powers, the scholar loved her terribly and treated her as a delicate little girl. He was reluctant to leave her to help. Since Ning's mother was in the house, she did not dare to be alone and could only stay outside. Fortunately, thanks to her affectionate and loyal behavior in the past two days, the bricklayers were not scared and they just subconsciously circled around her.

The only effort she had put in that morning was to boil some water, but she was bored to death!

Hearing the noise, everyone who was working stopped temporarily and looked over.

The scholar was overjoyed, as if he had seen a relative. He brushed off the dirt on his body and ran over to greet him: "Master, you are here..."

Several bricklayers felt nervous for no reason, and when they saw that Zhang Chuba was not paying attention to them, they were actually relieved. They turned back to continue working, but they felt a little more restrained, and their skills became less skilled!

"Um……"

Zhang Chuba nodded slightly and responded with a chuckle.

The scholar looked around, a little embarrassed, and said, "It's a bit messy here, go sit inside!"

Zhang Chuba ignored his invitation, stood still, and refused: "No, I'll just say a few words and leave."

"Are you in such a hurry? Is there something urgent?" The scholar asked casually with a smile without thinking much.

"I'm here to say goodbye." Zhang Chuba went straight to the point.

The scholar's expression darkened when he heard this, and he tried his best to keep you: "You're leaving now? I haven't treated you properly yet. Please stay for a few more days!"

He was reluctant to leave. There were so many things going on these days, and Zhang Chuba had been working day and night for him. He felt really ashamed.

Besides that, he also had a little selfish motive. Although Ning's mother was saved by Xiaoqian's sincere prayers, tracing back to the root cause, the merits and demerits offset each other at most. It was a pleasant surprise that Ning's mother could abandon her prejudice. If he wanted her to give in, it would still be extremely difficult!
But Zhang Chuba is different. As an outsider, he has done his best these days, which can be regarded as a life-saving favor to Ning's mother. If he can say something nice, it will surely speed up Ning's mother's change of heart!
"It was a bit hasty, but it was also done in accordance with the situation. Li Xiangsi came from afar at my invitation, and although she didn't have time to help, the favor was real. Now she has received my message and has stopped nearby to provide free medical treatment. She has a compassionate heart and has been traveling around the world to do charity. I haven't met her for many years. This time, by chance, I was thinking of going to see her and then returning to Beijing!" Zhang Chuba took out his prepared speech to prevaricate, and his expression was also reluctant.

"OK then……"

The scholar was well-read and a reasonable man. Upon hearing this, he no longer insisted, but felt very disappointed.

"Don't be like this. It's not like we won't see each other anymore. I'm still waiting to come to the wedding again."

Zhang Chuba patted the scholar's shoulder and said with a smile, glancing at Xiaoqian jokingly. She blushed with embarrassment, lowered her head and twisted her clothes, and had wild thoughts!
Hahaha……

Zhang Chuba laughed loudly and cupped his hands: "My wife is still waiting for me, so I won't be polite with you. I'm leaving now. See you later!"

After saying that, he simply turned around and strode away...

The scholar and Xiaoqian hurried to see him off, but Zhang Chuba kept walking and turned his head away, saying, "No need to see me off, or I'll be sad..."

"Wait a moment……"

Ning's mother chased out of the house with full energy.

Zhang Chuba stamped his feet and turned around, asking in confusion: "What else is wrong, Sister Ning? Are you feeling unwell?"

Mother Ning did not answer, but bowed solemnly: "I would like to thank you for saving my life first..."

Zhang Chuba felt ashamed at the time, so he waved his hand tightly, helped her up in mid-air, and said kindly: "Sister Ning, you thanked the wrong person. It was not me who saved you, but your daughter-in-law!"

Mother Ning knew that Zhang Chuba was not an ordinary person, but she was not panicked, nor did she bow again, nor did she react to her "daughter-in-law". She just insisted on her own opinion: "Of course I know, but the nobleman also helped a lot, Caichen told me..."

"We are all friends. We will do our best to help." Zhang Chuba waved his hand politely.

Mother Ning was delighted when she heard this, and immediately said, "Since you are a friend, I have something to ask of you..."

"Mother, what are you doing? We have already troubled the Taoist priest enough..." The scholar became angry and turned around quickly, ran over to grab Ning's mother and stop her from being greedy!

Zhang Chuba frowned slightly and chuckled heartily: "If you have anything to say, just tell me and I'll do my best!" He was as cautious as ever and kept his promise without a single flaw!
"Master, don't listen to my mother's nonsense. Isn't the princess still waiting for you? Let's go..."

The scholar turned around and urged Zhang Chuba to leave, unwilling to lose his only dignity!

Mother Ning became anxious upon hearing this. She shook her body and pulled her hands to try to break free. At the same time, she raised her voice and shouted, "I want to beg you..."

"Mother, please stop talking. The Taoist priest has done me a great favor. Where do you think I will be left?"

The scholar angrily shook off Ning's mother's arm, his brows folded with tears, and he was almost on the verge of collapse!
Mother Ning felt heartbroken upon seeing this, but she remained stubborn: "I'm doing this for your own good!"

"I have no face anymore..."

The scholar roared, his dignity was lost!
"Scholar, don't be anxious. Listen to what your mother says..."

Zhang Chuba said this and winked at Xiaoqian.

Xiaoqian understood and looked at Ning's mother hesitantly. Ning's mother made eye contact with her for a moment, then quickly looked away, with a helpless look of out of sight, out of mind.

Seeing this, Xiao Qian felt relieved, and then she walked over quickly, hugged the scholar's arm, and half of her warm and soft body melted the scholar's fiery heart, and said: "Auntie is doing this for your own good, you should listen to what she says first, and if you don't agree after she finishes, no one can force you!"

woohoo...

The scholar was still panting and his face was red, but he had calmed down for the most part. He thought to himself, if his mother made unreasonable demands, he would refuse her sternly even if she made a big fuss!

Mother Ning's weather-beaten face trembled, and she sighed inwardly that her son was no longer under the control of his mother. She forced out her embarrassment and said, "This is not difficult, but it's a bit troublesome..."

"Oh?"

Zhang Chuba responded at the right time, slightly curious.

"The Spring Examination is approaching, if it weren't for..."

Mother Ning glanced at Xiaoqian and continued, "It's almost time for Caichen to leave..."

"You want me to take him with me?"

Zhang Chuba took over the conversation and suddenly understood.

"Sorry for your trouble!"

Ning's mother bowed cunningly to express her gratitude, attempting to create a fait accompli.

Zhang Chuba laughed dumbly, remained silent for a moment, and said hesitantly: "It's not impossible, but..."

Before he finished speaking, the scholar objected: "No, you just came, how can I..."

"If you can get into high school, I'll help you!"

Ning's mother was so decisive that the scholar froze in his tracks. It was only after Xiaoqian quietly pulled him that he came to his senses. However, he felt as if Fan Jin had passed the imperial examination, and was in a state of disbelief. "Are you serious?"

"If you don't want to, forget it!"

Ning's mother looked reluctant, said this, and turned away!
"No, no, I wish, I wish..."

The scholar burst into laughter and quickly grabbed Ning's mother, shaking her arm, becoming a filial son and grandson again!
