Let's just drift through life together in this quick transmigration story.

Shiyi Niang knocked on Su Beichen's door. "Mr. Su, are you home?"

Upon hearing the voice, Uncle Liu opened the courtyard gate and said, "It's the Eleventh Miss. What brings you here, Eleventh Miss?"

Eleven smiled shyly and said, "I've come to see Mr. Su to convey our second-in-command's message."

Uncle Liu opened the door. "Please come in quickly."

Su Beichen was reading under the eaves. Sunlight shone on his profile, making him look very comfortable, without any resentment or anger at being dismissed from office.

Shiyi Niang placed her hands on her waist and bowed, "Greetings, Mr. Su. The Second Master has something to discuss with you and asked me to convey his message."

"What tasks does the second-in-command assign?"

Su Beichen lowered his hand and looked at Shiyi Niang tenderly. Shiyi Niang blushed. Being stared at by a handsome and capable young man would make any woman, no matter how knowledgeable, blush.

But Shiyi Niang hadn't forgotten the important matter. She calmed herself down and said, "Mr. Su, our second-in-command would like to invite you to teach the children in the mountain stronghold."

"But sir, there's no need to worry. You can simply teach every three days. The tuition will be arranged according to the standards of the top academies in the capital. What do you think?"

The tuition at the top academies in the capital is ten taels of silver per month, which is more than enough for an ordinary person's monthly expenses.

Su Beichen clasped his hands in a gesture of respect, "Yes, thank you for informing me, Eleventh Miss."

"Mr. Su, I'll be leaving now. I'll bring the documents to you later."

"Thank you for your trouble, Eleventh Sister."

It's not easy for a lone man and woman to get along, so Shiyi Niang left without lingering.

Uncle Liu said worriedly, "Young Master, are you really going to teach in a bandit's den?"

The young master knew a hundred characters at the age of three, could compose poems at the age of seven, passed the imperial examination at the age of ten, and became the top scholar at the age of sixteen, becoming the youngest top scholar in the dynasty. Later, he rose to the position of Vice Minister of the Court of Judicial Review and even became sworn brothers with the eldest prince. How spirited and ambitious he was!

Su Beichen: "Liu Boshen said there's nothing wrong with teaching in Da Caizhai."

"Da Cai Zhai are a band of righteous bandits. Since their arrival, the security in both the capital and Lincheng has improved significantly. Besides, what else can I do after being dismissed from my post?"

When asked what to do, Uncle Liu perked up and said directly, "You can go and beg His Highness. Now His Highness holds immense power in the court, and he will surely allow you to return to the court, living up to your expectations, sir."

Liu Bo had no idea that it was the eldest prince who had sent his young master away from the capital, and the more he thought about it, the more hopeful he felt.

Su Beichen's face rarely showed a serious expression as he said to Uncle Liu, "Don't mention this matter again. If you want to go back, you can go back by yourself."

Su Beichen basically made all the decisions in the Su family, so Uncle Liu naturally couldn't say anything. He just said woodenly, "Before coming to the capital, the master asked me to take good care of you."

“I can handle my own affairs, Uncle Liu, you don’t need to work so hard.”

"Yes, Master."

Su Beichen understood Liu Bo's thoughts. It was a waste of talent for a top scholar to teach, but as the saying goes, "You are not a fish, how can you know the joy of a fish?"

002 chuckled as he fiddled with the cup in his hand. So what if Su Beichen coveted Xiong Bufan? Xiong Bufan was still by his side. A young scholar who had achieved great success could only end up teaching in a bandit's den, and he was still working under him. 002 was happy just thinking about it. He had already begun to imagine Su Beichen always being inferior to him.

Seeing that 002 had been grinning to himself ever since Shiyi Niang returned and reported, and was still fiddling with the water cup in his hand, Xiong Bufan remembered the money spent on hiring Su Beichen to teach, and Xiong Bufan's face showed obvious displeasure.

Eleventh Sister wanted to bury herself in the storybook, not wanting to see what was about to happen. The Second Master was the same; he never learned his lesson after being beaten.

Xiong Bufan slapped 002 across the face, "Go and earn the monthly salary for Su Beichen. If you can't earn it, I'll sell you to Nanfeng Tower down the mountain."

002 snapped back to reality in a second and said with a wronged expression, "Yes."

Xiong Bufan: "Don't lose yourself again. If you do, you'll have to pay off your debts with Su Beichen."

"I will definitely work hard to make money."

"Um"

002's secret excitement had vanished, and he now regretted offering Su Beichen such a high tuition fee.

Where am I supposed to get ten taels of silver a month? Maybe I should teach martial arts to children and get Xiong Bufan to pay such a high fee. I can't really go and sell myself.

While Xiong Bufan was still comfortably listening to Shiyi Niang read the storybook, 002 mustered up her courage and said, "Bufan, can I teach the children martial arts? The tuition fee is the same as Su Beichen's." After saying that, she glanced at Xiong Bufan cautiously.

Eleven Sister had no idea how 002 had the courage to say that; asking the Boss for money was like pulling teeth from a tiger's mouth.

Xiong Bufan picked at his ear and said to 002, "What did you say? Say it again."

002: "I think, ah." After a scream, 002 was thrown out of the house by Xiong Bufan.

Xiong Bufan's voice came from inside, "Take responsibility for your own affairs. Don't try to cheat me out of my money. Go make some money. I'll be waiting for your good news."

002 got up from the ground, looked around, and found that no one had noticed him. Relieved, he patted the dirt off his body and walked out of the yard. As long as no one saw him, he was still the respectable second-in-command. In fact, everyone was used to 002 being thrown out, and no one cared about him anymore.

In the following days, Xiong Bufan continued to obey orders, and 002 and Su Beichen busied themselves making money for Xiong Bufan. Life went on like this.

Su Beichen gradually fell in love with the feeling of teaching. A teacher is one who imparts knowledge, teaches skills, and resolves doubts.

Time seemed to fly by, and before they knew it, it was summer of the following year. Su Beichen was getting married to his female teacher, with whom he had taught.

On the day Su Beichen got married, 002 drank a lot of wine in his joy and patted Su Beichen on the shoulder, saying, "Now that you're married, live a good life together."

"I will."

She is a good woman. She can discuss poetry and literature with Su Beichen. Although she doesn't have exceptional martial arts skills, she will be a wonderful wife, and Su Beichen will be loyal to her for life.

This time, Xiong Bufan did a good deed. He didn't ask for Su Beichen's betrothal gifts or his wife's dowry. Instead, he took out a modern mirror and gave it to Su Beichen and his new wife, wishing them happiness, many children, and much good fortune.

Only if Su Beichen has many children will his debts continue, and Xiong Bufan will be able to keep receiving repayments from Su Beichen.

Kongkong naturally knew Xiong Bufan's true thoughts, so when giving him the mirror, she kept complaining that Xiong Bufan was stingy and that he only used his brain to make money.

Xiong Bufan, on the other hand, felt happy spending the money he earned with his own brains.
