Quick Wear: I'm Really Not a Scumbag

Chapter 467: A Farmer’s Scholar in Troubled Times (24)

- the next day

"What's going on? Why are these three people lying here in disheveled clothes?" Zhang Fengchun, who was in a hurry to go to court early in the morning, was suddenly stuck in traffic in his carriage.

When he opened the curtain, he saw several people in the middle of the road. At the same time, his colleague's carriage had stopped in front of him, and he nodded when he saw him.

"Sir, I'll go and see what's going on." The coachman also stopped the carriage.

After a while, the servant came running back and said, "Sir, the fair-skinned man in the middle seems to be the son of Sun Jiangxi, the Tongzhi of the Imperial Clan Bureau. I don't know why he's lying on the ground, and he doesn't seem to be awake yet."

He pointed to the alley next door. "His daughter was lying in the alley next door with a servant, her clothes disheveled and acting crazy. The road over there was also blocked. The alley was full of scattered love letters. I picked up one."

Zhang Fengchun was actually planning to take it and look at it, but he was surprised by a foul smell. "What's that smell? It's a foul stench!"

"Hold it for me to see." He took out a handkerchief from his arms and covered his mouth and nose.

The servant was not surprised by his anger. Zhang Fengchun was famous for his cleanliness. He had wiped the petition as soon as he got it, otherwise the stench would be even worse.

The more Zhang Fengchun looked back, the deeper his frown deepened. "How could a young lady from the boudoir, a member of a noble family, be so vulgar and shameless? Go check first, and quickly have the Sun family carry him back. If we block him here, who knows how many people will be affected from attending court."

"Yes!"

......

——Sun Family

Sun Jiangxi, who was being served, looked at the snacks on the table with displeasure. "We are out of money? How can we eat such food? Didn't the Wei family send money a few days ago?"

Wei Yuan's face was a little grim, but she quickly concealed it. "Master, have you forgotten that we still need to take care of the Shu family? This is the most important matter. It would be bad if it affects your promotion."

Sun Jiangxi paused for a moment, "This matter is indeed the most important, but our family's life can't get worse and worse, right? Can't your brother think more about us? He also has a son, he should know how difficult it is to be an official, and how difficult my situation is."

Wei Yuan immediately squatted on the ground, "I understand. I will send a letter to Houyun City right away. I believe they will deliver it soon."

"You eat too." Sun Jiangxi helped her reluctantly.

"But we must not forget to mention our family's current situation. We all prosper together and suffer together."

"Yes." Wei Yuan seemed obedient, but in fact she was very disgusted with his behavior of being a gigolo.

But after all, Wei Liangfei is not her biological brother, so she naturally wouldn't feel sorry for their money.

She just needs to hold on a little longer. When her two sons get married and have children and become high-ranking officials, and when her daughter marries into a prominent family, then she will have finally gotten through this.

Now I have to endure and give in to him for the sake of the children, watching him hang out with those concubines all day long and hang out with those dirty prostitutes outside!

After Sun Jiangxi finished hammering, he enjoyed the attentive care of his two concubines. Suddenly, he remembered something, "Where are the three of them? Why can't I even see Qin'er?"

Wei Yuan's face finally showed some signs of panic. "I don't know what's going on outside. Qin'er, go check. The other two kids are still slacking off. Let them rest for a while."

These two dead kids are really something, why haven’t they come back yet?

What if Sun Jiangxi finds out? Although Sun Jiangxi has no personal ethics, he always pretends to be serious in public, and others think he is a good person.

"How can this be possible? I see that these two have been unable to get up more than once or twice in recent days. It's okay for Cheng'er, but Qiuyun is a woman, how could she be like this?! If my colleagues in the court knew about this, I would be laughed at!" Sun Jiangxi looked at her seriously.

"You are my legitimate wife. Although you come from a merchant family, how can you be so confused?" Sun Jiangxi scolded.

This was the first time in all these years that Wei Yuan was scolded by him in front of these concubines. She clutched her handkerchief tightly and said nothing.

Sun Jiangxi obviously realized that he had spoken too harshly and was about to make up for it.

"Master! Master! Something happened!"

"master!"

.......

——Guangyun Mountain

"This mountain doesn't look high, but I didn't expect that I couldn't reach the top after climbing it." Wei Siqi regretted bringing so many things with him.

Chen Xuyan opened the bamboo tube and prepared to drink water. "What you saw at the foot of the mountain just now was only the halfway point of Guangyun Mountain. Of course it felt far away."

The other half of the mountain almost overlaps with the mountain in front.

Wei Siqi looked at him as if to predict the outcome. "No wonder. I told you it should have arrived by now."

He looked at the other four strong men as if asking for help.

"I don't have the strength either." Li Wentao knew what he was going to say.

Jin Yonghuai smiled and said, "Who told you to bring so many things? Didn't my eldest brother try to dissuade you?"

It was certainly not impossible for Chen Xuyan to get it. All his things had been snatched away by Chen Zhao and carried on his back. Helping him get it would be asking for trouble.

"You should take this opportunity to train yourself well." Chen Xuyan stood up, and Chen Zhao stood up as well.

The other three rested early in the morning.

"Are we leaving now? How long have we rested? Let's rest for a while longer?" Wei Siqi wanted to cry, if he had known earlier he would not have gone out today, but he was afraid that if he stayed in the yard alone and something happened, no one would be able to save him.

I still followed them to watch the fun and climb the mountain.

He had certainly walked enough today.

Lin Zengjie winked at him maliciously and said, "You really need to exercise your brain."

Wei Siqi looked at the road down the mountain and felt a little scared. He looked at the people who had already walked far away above, and could only bite the bullet and follow them.

"Wait for me!"

Chen Xuyan deliberately slowed down so that Wei Siqi could keep up.

—The Mountaintop

"I didn't expect that so many people in the capital have the leisure to climb this mountain." Chen Xuyan sighed.

In front of everyone was a temple, which was quite large and very popular.

"How did they get up here?" Wei Siqi didn't have the energy to ask more questions. He pointed at the young ladies walking in front of them.

Jin Yonghuai smiled and said, "They are going to the back mountain, and the carriage can go up, so of course it's easy."

Wei Siqi looked at them in disbelief, "Then why do we have to climb the mountain?"

"We have no place to use our energy. What other reasons can we have?" Lin Zengjie couldn't help laughing when he saw his expression.

"Hahahaha, look at how stunned he is."

"You guys?!" Wei Siqi felt like he was almost collapsing at this moment.

"You didn't tell him?" Chen Xuyan noticed something was wrong.
