Chapter 416: Sickly Elder Brother - Twenty-four

The commotion outside the Cui family's gate lasted most of the night, and Li Wensheng had also joined in the fun. When everyone dispersed, he wanted to look for Yunmo, but found that he could not find him. Fortunately, Cui's father had received instructions from Cui's mother, and he had been keeping an eye on the ragged boy. Where was the hundred taels of silver? He couldn't let him get away!

So, when everyone left, he saw that Li Wensheng seemed to be looking for someone, so he immediately went up to him, greeted him, and took him to Cui Yi and Cui Yan's room.

Cui Yi was still awake at this time. He opened the door when he heard the noise and frowned when he saw Li Wensheng standing outside.

Cui's father: "Translator"

Cui's father: "This person is someone your eldest brother left behind. Let him stay with you for one night." Cui Yi: "(He was unwilling in his heart, but still made way)"

Cui Yan walked over, holding a barbell in each hand that Yun Mo had pulled out from the space. He looked at Li Wensheng critically.

Cui Yan: "Father, where did my elder brother find this little beggar?"

Cui Yan: "I don't agree to let him share a room with us."

Li Wensheng: "Then I'll go find Cui Mo. He won't just watch me with nowhere to sleep."

Cui Yan: “No! (staring)”

Cui Yi: “No! (His face changes slightly)”

Father Cui: "No! (His eyes turned cold)"

Cui Yan: "Who do you think you are?"

Cui Yan: "How dare you look for my elder brother at this time?"

Cui Yan: "Do you believe I will beat you to death?!" Cui Yan: "You are such a tactless person!"

Cui Yi: “(Well said!)”

Cui Yi: "Well, my elder brother has always been weak. It's already this late and we absolutely cannot disturb him."

Father Cui: “That’s right.”

Father Cui said: "Da Lang is resting, don't disturb him, you can squeeze into this room today."

Li Wensheng: "I just can't..."

Cui Yan put the barbell in his hand into Li Wensheng's arms. Li Wensheng caught it subconsciously, but was almost choked by the fall.

Cui Yan: "You will be staying in our house today. You can't refuse (grabs the man by the collar and drags him into the house)"

Cui Yi: "It will be dawn soon, father, please go back and rest early."

Cui's father: "Okay (whispering)"

Father Cui said: "That man was rescued by your elder brother from the mountain. We agreed to give him 100 taels of silver, but he hasn't paid yet. Please keep an eye on him."

The implication was to not let anyone escape. Cui Yi understood immediately and nodded to show that he understood. Then Cui's father left. Cui Yi closed the door and turned around to see Li Wensheng sitting on the ground holding Cui Yan's barbell.

Li Wensheng: "How heavy is this thing of yours?"

Cui Yan: "My elder brother said it weighed 80 kilograms."

Cui Yan: "The two together weigh about 160 kilograms."

Li Wensheng: "Take this away quickly"

Cui Yan: "You can't even lift 80 kilograms. You're not as good as my Ah Yi."

Cui Yi walked forward, picked up the barbell with one hand and put it on the ground. Li Wensheng hurriedly got up.

Li Wensheng: "Your family can use fine iron to make exercise equipment, so why can't you spend money to build a good house?"

Cui Yan: "Who cares if we build a house or not? You live by the sea, don't you?" Li Wensheng: "What does this have to do with whether I live by the sea or not?"

Cui Yan: "Living by the sea means you have more control."

Li Wensheng: “(speechless for a moment)”

Cui Yi: "My second brother is a straightforward person. He has no ill intentions. Please don't blame me."

Li Wensheng: "... (This statement makes me feel that if I get angry, I am narrow-minded and petty.)"

Cui Yi said: "Second brother, Master Li is a guest. It's not right for him to share a bed with us. Let Master Li rest on your bed today. Let's squeeze in, okay?"

Cui Yan: “(Why should I give up my bed?)”

Cui Yi: "(Your bed is dirty, just right for him to sleep on, wash it after he finishes sleeping)"

Cui Yan: "(You have such a dark heart)"

The two exchanged glances and instantly reached a consensus. Cui Yan: "Okay, I'll be generous today and let you have my bed for one night."

Li Wensheng: "Thank you very much, Brother Cui"

Li Wensheng: "(I always feel something is wrong, but I can't figure out what's wrong. He touches my head and forgets it. I go to sleep first)"

The two brothers looked at each other, Cui Yi closed the book, Cui Yan dropped the fitness equipment, and they both decided to go to bed.

Li Wensheng shuddered, feeling a chill. He rubbed his hands and wanted to get some water to take a bath, but then he remembered that there seemed to be no maids or servants in this house, and the two brothers opposite had already started taking off their shoes and going to bed. He thought about it and realized that although his outer robe was torn, his inner body was fine. Although he looked miserable on the outside, he was actually not dirty or injured. Why not just make do with it for one night?
