On the wedding day, I was broken off, so I remarried his uncle

After Old Song left, Song Xile arranged for the Qiao brothers to go back to their house to rest.

Then she returned to the main room and told the two of them what she had discovered after going out today.

Qian Feng slammed his palm on the table and said angrily: "This Yang Ji is simply lawless. Should we report to the police?"

Chen Yun shook his head and said, "Catch the thief and the stolen goods. We don't have any evidence to prove that he was the one who did this."

If they cannot capture him in one fell swoop, what they are doing now will not be able to intimidate Yang Ji, and may even annoy him, and he will retaliate against them even more unscrupulously.

"What should we do then?" Qian Feng asked anxiously.

Song Xile suggested, "Now we know the person behind the scenes, but Yang Ji doesn't know your specific situation. I went to the clinic today to buy herbs for treating diarrhea. Those people will definitely go to the clinic to inquire about it. They will definitely mistakenly think that you have been infected."

"Why don't we just take advantage of their situation? You should stay at home and don't go out these few days. The entrance exam is only a few days away anyway."

Song Xile glanced at her husband who also looked unhappy, and continued: "However, we cannot help but be on guard. Who knows if Yang Ji has any backup plans."

"On the way back, I was still thinking about whether I should hire some people who know martial arts to come to my house."

"It just so happens that the Qiao brothers are here. We know them well. I would like to ask them to protect us here. I also have a plan in mind."

Chen Yunyou said hesitantly, "But the two brothers of the Qiao family have a feud with Yang Ji. Will the brothers of the Qiao family have any concerns?"

"I'll go and ask them what they think. If they really want to do it, they often travel around the world, so disguising themselves won't be a difficult task for them." Song Xile said.

"If the Qiao brothers stay here, what should we do if we need to go back to our father-in-law?"

Song Xile said, "I will talk to my father about this later and ask him to come back with us later."

"Will my father-in-law agree?"

Song Xile patted his chest and said, "Don't worry about it. I'll take care of it. If dad really doesn't want to go, I'll hire a team of people to send him back first."

What neither of them expected was that after Old Song saw with his own eyes how booming the barbecue stall was, he immediately decided not to leave and wanted to stay to help his son.

When he came back from the stall, Old Song pulled his daughter aside and whispered, "Girl, it's not as convenient to have outsiders help you in business as it is to have your own family."

"Now that I'm your father, I can go help your second brother. There's no need to hire so many people. What a waste!"

Song Xile was happy in her heart. She had originally been thinking of finding an excuse to keep her father here, but now he was willing to stay on his own initiative.

However, Song Xile did not agree to Old Song's request and found an excuse: "Dad, those three people did nothing wrong. How can I suddenly fire them?"

Old Song slapped his chest anxiously, "How can there be no reason? We were short of manpower before, and now I'm here."

"Why don't you just tell them that it would be OK if they had help at home?"

Song Xile did not respond, but said: "But I have paid all their wages in advance, until the Dragon Boat Festival."

"If we fire them now, they won't get their wages back? Dad wants them to leave, so I'll go talk to them right away."

Old Song grabbed his daughter who was about to leave and said with a heartache: "Ah, alas, why didn't I realize that you were so lenient before? How could anyone be like you, paying before the work is done?"

"Dad, you should know that every household has little food in stock now. The reason why I paid them in advance is to let them buy more food."

After hearing what his daughter said, Old Song didn't say anything else.

Song Xile continued to explain: "Dad, you have also seen how lively the city is now. As the Dragon Boat Festival approaches, more and more people will go to Yunhu Lake to play. I even think there are not enough people now."

"I was thinking of hiring someone else, but now that Dad is here, I'll have to trouble him to take care of the stall. Yun You has to take part in the college entrance examination, so I can't take care of the kebab stall. I'm afraid my second brother will be even busier!"

After hearing what his daughter said, Old Song's expression softened a little, and he said confidently: "Just focus on taking care of Yun You, Dad is still here."

So the matter was settled.

As for the Qiao brothers, Song Xile suggested that they stay until the college entrance examination is over and then go back together.

During this period, two people were hired to guard several people and were promised generous rewards.

Originally, all the money they earned was used to buy food, and now the family’s savings is only a few taels of silver at most. This amount of money is still too little. If the family encounters an urgent need for money, the two of them will not be able to come up with any money at all.

As soon as Song Xile made the suggestion, the two brothers of the Qiao family agreed without hesitation.

Time soon came to the day before the college entrance examination.

In order to confuse the enemy, Song Xile went to the clinic several times during this period. He watched the servant there and reported the matter to Yang Ji immediately.

After hearing this, Yang Ji felt that his method was effective, and his lips curled up in satisfaction.

But the rankings of these two people were not low. In order to more thoroughly prevent them from participating in the college entrance examination, Yang Ji leaned close to the servant and whispered a few words.

The servant received the order and left immediately.

At this time, Chen Yunyou and Qian Feng, who knew nothing yet, were preparing things to take with them the next day.

The pens, ink, paper and inkstone in the examination basket were all prepared early in the morning in accordance with the regulations. Song Xile also prepared food and homemade mosquito repellent for them.

The college entrance examination is different from the other two examinations. One has to stay in the examination room for three days. All meals and accommodations during these three days must be taken in the examination room. Song Xile is worried that the weather is hot and there will be mosquito bites and heat stroke.

So Song Xile made her own mosquito repellent. If it weren't for the fact that medicine bags were not allowed into the examination room, she would have also wanted to prepare mosquito repellent sachets for the two of them.

As for the food, we don’t care about how delicious it is, so all the meals prepared are long-lasting steamed buns and flower rolls.

Qian Feng picked one up and took a bite, almost breaking his teeth. He widened his eyes and said, "This is too hard."

Song Xile explained: "This is specially dried to prevent it from spoiling in this weather. When it feels too dry when you want to eat it, just soak it in water. It saves time and effort."

Qian Feng thought about it and it seemed to make sense, so he stopped worrying about it.

The next day, because the college examination was about to begin, everyone in the courtyard got up early to prepare and send the two to the examination room.

When Qian Feng was carrying the examination basket and heading towards the carriage, Chen Yunyou, who was waiting in the yard, called him.

"We'll go out the back door."

"Why is this?" Qian Feng asked puzzled.

Chen Yunyou explained, "Yang Ji has not made any further moves in the past few days. I am worried that he may have a trick up his sleeve. So we can go directly to the examination room through the back door and have Changan drive from Liu'er Hutong to attract those who are secretly following us."

Qian Feng immediately understood and followed with the exam basket.
