Scumbag Training Manual

Chapter 2
Chen Xuanze looked at his 16-year-old daughter, full of sadness.

Originally a lady of golden branches and jade leaves, seeing that the matchmaker who came to propose a marriage a while ago almost broke through the threshold of the family, he kept procrastinating and delaying her daughter's lifelong event.

If he had known this earlier, he should have chosen a good family to marry his daughter off earlier, and saved her from staying in this family and worrying all day long.

Now he is half disabled, Chen Ling is young, and still has the 300 taels of foreign debt. .

The burden of the whole family is all on her weak shoulders, how can I bear it?
Chen Xuanze let out a long sigh: "Miaoer, it's Daddy who dragged you down!" He said bitterly: "This damned Hang Feijue is the one who made our family like this, I will never let him go!"

Chen Miaoqiang pulled out a smile, and comforted him: "Father, when is it time to repay the injustice?"

Yes, what Hang Feijue did today was because 20 years ago, Chen Xuanze won most of the Chen family's property from the Hang family.

Hang Feijue has been dormant for more than [-] years, and today's move is nothing more than to regain the ancestral property from the Chen family.

Chen Xuanze's face was livid, his eyes were closed, and he said in a deep voice, "You don't understand..."

Seeing that he didn't want to talk anymore, Chen Miao sighed lightly, stood up, and said in a low voice, "I'll go see how the medicine is cooked."

With a heavy heart, Fu sat back in front of the small stove, picked up the cattail fan, and fanned it lightly.

Chen Miao didn't know how to persuade her father to be so stubborn. She knew from a young age that Chen Xuanze's character was extremely stubborn, and as long as something was decided, it would be difficult to change.

It was like this when the family was rich and powerful, but now that the family has undergone tremendous changes, I am afraid that in his heart, he will not be able to pass this hurdle at all.

After decocting three bowls of water from the medicine furnace into one bowl of water, Chen Miao came to his father's bedside with the medicine bowl in his hands.

Chen Xuanze had a gloomy face and did not speak, he just picked up the medicine bowl and drank it down in one gulp, then handed the empty bowl to Chen Miao.

Looking at her father's expression, Chen Miao became more and more frightened.

She understands Chen Xuanze's stubbornness better than anyone else, now that his family is ruined, don't think about what stupid things he did.

Chen Miao put away the bowl calmly, and said softly to Chen Xuanze, "Daddy, you can sleep for a while."

Chen Xuanze nodded, and Chen Miao flattened the pillow behind him for him, helped him to lie down, and tucked the corners of the quilt for him, before pulling Chen Ling out the door.

After closing the door, the two entered the yard and sat side by side on a small stool.

Chen Ling opened a pair of big black and white eyes, and was about to cry. Chen Miao gently stroked Chen Ling's forehead hair, and said in a low voice: "Linger, we may have to move again, and we may have to endure hardships in the future, you Are you scared?"

Chen Ling shook her head and said loudly, "Don't be afraid!"

Chen Miao smiled slightly, and said in a low voice, "You are a man, don't cry easily. Although we are facing difficulties now, we can always get through it."

Chen Ling gritted her teeth and nodded.

Chen Miao lowered her head in thought, she still had more than 100 taels of cash and a few pieces of jewelry, all of which were pawned, and estimated that she could make up 300 taels of silver.If it doesn't work, if you sell this small yard, it should be almost done.

Chen Miao hurriedly glanced at the back room, took Chen Ling's hand and said in a low voice: "Ling'er, you should look at Daddy more these days, but don't let him do anything stupid, our family , can no longer stand the toss."

Although Chen Ling was young, she was also smart, so she nodded quickly.

At noon, Chen Miao made some random food and ate with Chen Ling.Chen Xuanze's right hand was inconvenient, so she took a bowl and fed it to her father one bite at a time.

Chen Xuanze was recuperating silently at home, and he rarely spoke at ordinary times. When the wound on his right hand healed, he tried to move his right hand. Except for a few fingers that could barely be bent, he could hardly even hold a pair of chopsticks.

Chen Xuanze's face became more and more gloomy, and he was unwilling to say a word, Chen Miao and Chen Ling guarded Chen Xuanze carefully every day with fear.

Chen Miao gathered all the money in the family together, and took out all the jewelry that had been reserved as dowry. She only kept a pair of twisted silk silver bracelets that her mother gave her before she passed away, and pawned the rest.

In the end, there was still 30 taels of silver.

Chen Miao looked around the small courtyard where she was currently living. When she bought it, she spent 50 taels of silver.If you sell it, you may still have some spare money to rent a smaller house.

Chen Miao went to find a middleman and entrusted the middleman to sell the small courtyard where they are currently living.Because the middleman knew Chen Xuanze, and he usually got a lot of benefits from Chen Xuanze's subordinates, so it was quite straightforward to agree to this matter.

Within three days, someone came to see the house.Chen Miao cleaned up the inside and outside of the house, and posted it properly. The buyer was very satisfied after seeing it, so he paid the deposit on the spot, and promised to give them two days to vacate the house. Clear the balance.

The new residence was something that Chen Miao had been looking forward to two days ago. It was in the most remote part of the northern city. Compared with the place where they lived now, it was even poorer, and it was almost considered a slum area.

There were only two empty houses and a very small yard, which Chen Miao bought with only three taels of silver. Chen Miao tidied up the house before bringing her father to see it.

Chen Xuanze was noncommittal, so he acquiesced.

Chen Miao softly comforted: As long as our family is still there, no matter how difficult it is, we can always get through it.

Although the small yard is small, some vegetables can be grown after turning the soil, and it can also subsidize some households.

Two days later, the house was handed over, and Chen Miao hired two laborers to move the simple household items that could be used by the family there. The rest that could not be taken away were sold and exchanged for some money.

The next day was the day when Hang Feijue came to pick up the silver.

Although the Chen family moved to a new house, Hang Feijue still showed up at the door of the Chen family's new move on time.

He only brought two people here today, and looked around Chen Miao's new home with his eyes, with a half-smile on his face, "Miss Chen was not used to such a hard life since she was a child, isn't it? , Hang will never treat Ms. Chen badly."

Chen Miao coldly pushed a bag of money in front of him: "Take your money and leave quickly, you are not welcome here. Return the IOU to me."

Hang Feijue didn't care about her attitude at all. He opened the silver package with the handle of his fan and took a look, then took out the IOU from his pocket and handed it to Chen Miao.

Chen Miao took a look, quickly tore the IOU into pieces, and said softly, "You can go."

Hang Feijue pulled his lips and smiled slightly, took a deep look at Chen Miao, but didn't say much, only motioned to the people behind him to put away the money, then turned and left.

Although he admired Chen Miao a little bit, he would not have any other thoughts about her.

The purpose of attacking the Chen family was just to regain the ancestral property and wanted a lot of women. Although Chen Miao was fairly handsome, she was not the type he liked, and there was no need to provoke her.

Seeing that Hang Feijue took the people away, Chen Miao breathed a sigh of relief. From now on, they can live in peace and quiet.

She turned her head and looked behind her, only to see Chen Ling standing at the root of the wall and playing with weeds, but her father, Chen Xuanze, was missing.

Chen Miao was startled, and hurriedly asked, "Ling'er, have you seen Daddy?"

Chen Ling was startled, looked around, and said hesitantly: "Daddy was here just now, why did he disappear all of a sudden?"

Chen Miao's face changed, and she exclaimed, "Not good!" She turned her head and rushed out the door.
