Chapter 58 Wen Youcai Causes Trouble

Wen Luozhi probably knew what she was thinking, and without saying a word, she shoved the things into her hands, saying, "Your fourth brother and I are good to you because you're our sister, and most importantly, you've never done anything to hurt us."

"We don't need anything in return for being good to Pandi; we just hope she won't be as bad as some people."

She said tactfully that it's not acceptable to speak ill of someone else's parents in front of their child.

Wen Pandi nodded. She knew that the people her cousin was talking about were her parents, or perhaps her grandmother and uncle.

Wen Luozhi patted her little shoulder and said softly, "Go back quickly, and remember to hide your things so they won't be discovered."

"If you get hungry, just quietly come find us."

She sighed softly. This was all the help their family could offer. Once that den of wolves and tigers found out about the shop, they'd probably be eyeing them every day.

Pandi, clutching the bag of candy, kept turning back to look at it. Wen Luozhi smiled and waved to her before she quickly left.

Xie He had been watching from behind, and Wen Luozhi turned around, looked at her, and shrugged.

"Mother, tomorrow if they come one, we'll fight them one; if two come, we'll fight them both."

Since we're all in town anyway, if things get really bad, we can just report it to the authorities and have them arrested, so they won't keep coming out and bothering people.

Wen Luozhi's eyes darted around. If this old woman's grandson was imprisoned, they would definitely be unable to cause any trouble, and then their own family could finally live a more peaceful life.

"System, system, could you please check the county magistrate's information for me?"

Since the system upgrade, an information query function has been added, just like Baidu, where you can search for anything you don't know and find the answer.

This pleased Wen Luozhi greatly, and she would ask him questions whenever she had free time, but they were all extremely boring and trivial.

For example, the system doesn't bother with questions like why a sow can climb a tree or why a crab has eight legs.

This time she finally seemed a bit serious, and the system started running with a clatter, displaying a long string of data on the page.

[Guo Liangcai, male, 43 years old, County Magistrate of Shanquan Town. Hobbies: Being an official. Personality: Greedy and ruthless. Family situation: One wife and twelve concubines, with one son who is homosexual...]

Wen Luozhi stopped reading here, having already obtained the key information about the opponent, as the saying goes, "Know yourself and know your enemy, and you will never be defeated."

If spending some money can bring peace to their family, then so be it. They can't be killed, and they can be beaten. I don't believe they'll behave only if a few people are locked up.

They're already making a scene over just one shop; what will happen when their business gets better and better?

And they've already started having wicked thoughts. No one can stand having such disgusting bloodsuckers clinging to them.

Lying in bed, she thought that she would have to go to the government office first thing tomorrow morning.

Wen Youcai was so excited that he couldn't sleep for the rest of the night. Before the moon had even set, he woke up Yang Xiu, who was sitting next to him.

"Xiuer! Xiuer! Let's go to town and make some money!"

Yang Xiu was still a little dazed, but when he heard about the silver, he immediately woke up and sat up in bed.

Yes, yes, they're going to town today! I heard that my second uncle's family, who separated from his family, opened a shop and earns a lot of money every day!

They're going to get the money from their second uncle!

The two quickly tidied up, and Wen Youcai thought for a moment before turning around to call Wen Zhuzi.

Wen Zhuzi answered him weakly through the window, saying that he wasn't feeling well today and wouldn't be going.

Wen Youcai curled his lips and said, "If we don't want to go, then we don't want to go. Once we get the money, it will belong to the eldest branch of the family. The second branch won't get a share."

He set off with Yang Xiu in high spirits, but Wen Zhuzi, who was inside the house, kept turning his head to look at his own backside.

Yesterday, he figured it was about time and that Wen Muchuan and his family were asleep, so he sneaked over. Just as he climbed over the courtyard wall and was about to climb down, a big white dog rushed over.

He chased it away a few times, but the big white dog not only didn't leave, it jumped up and bit his butt hard.

Ignoring the pain still lingering in his body, he struggled fiercely to pull his buttocks out of the big white dog's mouth.

He didn't dare tell anyone when he got home. Stealing was already dishonorable, and if people found out and he got bitten by a dog, it would be incredibly embarrassing.

He applied some ointment haphazardly, but the bite wound on his buttocks, along with the places Wu Hong had hit him, kept him awake all night.

I don't have the energy to go to town now!

Before leaving, Wen Luozhi looked at Dou Dou lying on her bed. Usually, when she was going to town, this little guy would get up to see her off. Why hadn't he woken up yet today?

Seeing that it seemed to have grown a bit bigger, she thought maybe the baby was growing and needed to sleep more.

She glanced at the milk powder can; there wasn't much left.

She poured out the rest, mixed it, and placed it where it ate. Wen Luozhi walked to the bedside, gently pulled open its ear, and instructed, "DouDou, drink your milk when you wake up, okay?"

DouDou lazily lifted her eyelids and then nodded obediently.

Wen Luozhi patted its head and exclaimed, "What's the difference between this and my own child? This is just my child!"

Upon arriving in town, Wen Luozhi told the others that she had something to attend to and would be delayed for a while before jumping out of the car.

Xie He wanted Wen Zi'an to go with her, but she waved her hand and refused, saying that she would be back soon.

When she arrived at the yamen, she spent some spare change to bribe the constable.

After explaining her purpose, the constable chuckled at her and then took her to see Guo Liangcai.

"Brother Constable, please help me out if anything happens later," Wen Luozhi said, stuffing a tael of silver into his hand.

The head constable looked around to make sure no one was watching, then took out a silver coin, bit it, and immediately beamed, patting his chest and assuring her, "Don't worry, sister, I'll have two brothers go back with you in a bit."

The two waited inside for a while before Guo Liang, heavily pregnant, came out.

[A narrow forehead with a V-shaped pattern, and a low, sunken hairline—host, you've encountered a corrupt official!] The system seemed somewhat gloating.

Hmph, can he be as greedy as you? Just one level up for you costs me two thousand taels!

The system stopped talking and silently went silent.

"Sir, this young lady has something to ask of you."

Because he had received the money, the constable was pleased and immediately told Wen Luozhi what he wanted to do.

He'd seen plenty of these kinds of deals where people paid money to do favors, so he didn't shy away from talking about it at all.

"Your Excellency is dedicated to serving the people and bringing prosperity to this region. On my way here, I heard from the locals that you are a good official. So please help me, Your Excellency." With that, Wen Luozhi took out a silver ingot from her sleeve.

Guo Liangcai's eyes lit up and he winked at the constable, who immediately understood and took the silver from Wen Luozhi's hand and handed it to the clerk beside him.

Having received the money, Guo Liangcai didn't say whether he agreed or not. He looked Wen Luozhi up and down, and seeing that she was dressed in shabby clothes, he gave up the idea of ​​extorting more money from her.

"Alright, go back now. I am dedicated to serving the people and will certainly seek justice for you."

He waved his sleeve to send the man away, and Wen Luozhi quickly thanked him and followed the constable out of the backyard.

On the way back, Wen Luozhi felt that the air was fresher and the sky was bluer.

Luckily, she was wearing tattered clothes today, otherwise that damned Guo Liangcai would probably have ripped her off.

It's worth spending fifty taels to get rid of a swarm of flies!

She was in a great mood all morning, and the two constables who came back with her were also enjoying good food and drinks while sitting at the table in the far corner.

Seeing that there were more and more people in the shop, Wen Youcai felt it was time to pull Yang Xiu to the front of the shop.
