For several days, Chen Shouxin and Youzi had to carefully choose their time before they would go shopping. But even so, he still couldn't escape Ma Yuanliang's notice. Every day, he would more or less be bullied.

Ma Yuanliang didn't dare to really fight back, but it was still possible for him to use his shoulder to hit someone twice and use his words to ridicule someone else.

After returning home, Youzi would complain for a while, but Chen Shouxin gradually got over it.

The situation was better than the people. The Ma family's father and son were the local tyrants. Although the old man's position was high, he was still an angel without any power. There was no use in being here at all, and even now, there was not a single official that came to pay their respects. This was obviously illogical. If it was a proper minister, the threshold would have been flattened.

"Youzi, we're not going out today." Chen Shouxin said seriously after breakfast.

"Yes, we'll listen to the Young Master. We can avoid running into that big scoundrel after we leave." Youzi also nodded vigorously.

"Cough cough, I am not afraid of that Ma Yuanliang. It was after careful deliberation that I decided to make my move. " Chen Shouxin coughed to make himself less awkward.

"Yes, the young master is right. We have to help the old master." Youzi covered her mouth and laughed.

"Forget it, the bird has a lofty ambition." Chen Shouxin shook his head helplessly. Did he really plan to make a move? But Xiao Youzi didn't believe him.

"Master, do you want to catch sparrows to cook?" Youzi's interest was piqued, as if she thought of the taste of burning sparrows, and she even licked her lips and cried out.

Chen Shouxin felt that he had failed. The two little girls that he had personally trained, one was a proper foodie, the other one was a failure who spent all his time on making money every day.

"Young master, young master, don't go over there and anger the old master. The old master has lost a lot of weight in the past two days." Seeing that Chen Shouxin was really going towards the room, Youzi hugged his waist and said pitifully.

"Let go. Under the clear sky and clear sky, men and women must not be intimate with one another. You cannot be like this." Chen Shouxin pinched Youzi's cheek and said with a smile.

"Young master …" Youzi pursed her lips again.

"Don't worry, this time young master really is going to do something big." Young Master does not wish to stay here for too long. Chen Shouxin lightly patted Youzi's arm and said.

Youzi hesitated, but still let go of her arm. She was still a little worried. Watching her young master walk into the room, she also got busy and hid everything in the yard that could be beaten up.

He walked into the room and took a few glances inside. The room was piled high with boxes. The old man and Uncle Chen were looking at the account books attentively.

"Cough cough!"

Chen Shouxin coughed lightly to remind the two that he was here.

Chen Changqing raised his head and glanced at him. He waved his hand, signalling for him not to come over and cause trouble.

Chen Shouxin was helpless and could only sit opposite his old man and close the account book he was reading.

"What are you trying to do?" Chen Changqing looked at him and asked.

"It's a serious matter. I want to eradicate the great calamity called the Ma family." Chen Shouxin said seriously.

"Don't mess around, take the grapefruit and play for a while." Chen Changqing opened the account book.

"Old man, I've already said that it's a serious matter." Chen Shouxin was anxious. Why was he so untrustworthy? Was it easy to make up his mind?

"If you really feel bored staying here, then return to the Imperial City with Commander Wang and the others in two days." Chen Changqing looked up at him for a while and slowly said. Then, he looked at the account book in his hand.

Chen Shouxin was stunned. To be honest, he was a bit tempted. However, when he saw the old man's red eyes and the new strands of white hair on his temples, he felt pain in his heart for some reason.

"Old man, can't you trust me again?" Chen Shouxin said after hesitating for a moment.

Chen Changqing glanced at him again and put down the pen for the first time.

Seeing that his old man had finally turned his attention to him, Chen Shouxin calmed himself down and thought for a while before speaking.

"I don't like to stay in this place. It wasn't that the place was bad. Although it was a border city, it was managed well and there was even beef to be eaten. The reason why I don't like it here is because of the people here. "

"The Ma Clan's father and son have been here for many years, and they have managed this place like an iron bucket. Whether we want to or not, we're already here. "Regardless of whether we're willing or not, we still have to give the emperor some compensation."

"I told you that I could help you with your accounts, but you wouldn't believe me. Let me tell you again this time, I really can help you check your accounts. Although I may not be able to tell which account is the problem, but I can find the general clue, and then you can follow it. "

After saying that, Chen Shouxin looked at his old man with a serious expression.

This made Uncle Chen, who was standing at the side, break out in a cold sweat. He quietly moved the utensils used to make the tea to the side, which made Chen Shouxin roll his eyes.

"Why do you say that?" Chen Changqing stared at Chen Shouxin for a moment before asking.

"I've thought of a way, but I don't know if it will work. Just give me all the books from last year and I'll check them out. You've found out, you're not worried about it, are you? Even if I can't find out anything, I won't hold you up. I'm fine, don't you have to be annoyed? " Chen Shouxin said with a smile.

"Two requirements." Chen Changqing said.

"First of all, we can't lose the account book. Otherwise, we won't be able to afford it. All of these documents have documents to be transferred over."

Chen Shouxin nodded and signaled the old man to continue with the second point.

"The second point is that these books should not be used for play. In particular, don't tear up the ledger pages and play with Youzi on a stack of planes. " Chen Changqing continued.

Chen Shouxin scratched his head in embarrassment, he didn't expect the old man to remember the shameful incident when he was young. It was too young then to tease Youzi, who had just arrived at the house, so he took her and stacked some planes with her, and for that his own buttocks were hit with a few small boards.

"Don't worry, I'll be able to come up with a rough outline in the morning." Chen Shouxin promised.

"However, there is one more thing that I do not know what you are going to do next." Uncle Chen definitely told you about what happened these few days. "

"Actually, it's fine if I get bullied, but he doesn't dare to really beat me up. At most, he would take advantage of me in words. But through this, we have to pay attention to the issues that are reflected in it. "

"The Ma Clan has been here for many years. I don't believe that their family is clean. On the contrary, their family couldn't be sure how much silver they had been greedy for. If you did find out something, what would you do about their counterattack? What if their family was desperate? What do we do if we crack our entire family? "

He had been worrying about this for the past two days, and the situation now did not allow for him to stay behind the old man to catch a cold.

Even in his dreams, he had dreamed that Ma Yuanliang was standing by his bed with a bloody knife, while Youzi was lying on the floor covered in blood.

Hearing his words, Chen Changqing frowned. He felt that his son seemed to have changed a lot today.

"I used to eat, drink and have fun because you're an official in the imperial court, and you're also very well-liked by late emperor." Chen Shouxin shrugged his shoulders and said.

"There's really no other way this time, or we'll just stay here and endure." Or he could find out what happened to Old Ma's family and secretly take care of them. "Even though it's somewhat risky, now that we've helped the emperor, if we don't have any merits, we'll still have to put in some hard work. He raised his hand and called the two of us back."

"What do you mean?" Chen Changqing didn't answer him directly. Instead, he looked at Uncle Chen.

"This... That... Old master, I always thought that our young master was very smart since he was young. It was just that he was a bit too playful. So... So, that. Right, isn't there talk of sudden insight? The young master's had a flash of insight. " Uncle Chen scratched his head and thought for a long time before finally finding a reason.

"Uncle Chen, thank you for your kind words. When I'm free, I'll properly stew a pot of wine to honor you, old man. " Chen Shouxin said with a smile.

"We can't, we can't, we can't. "Master, please cook a pot for me. I will also smell the fragrance." Uncle Chen was a little worried.

"Just drink some turbid wine, old man. Drink it as sweet water. His body is too weak, and cannot be stimulated by strong alcohol. " Chen Shouxin shook his head.

"Alright, you don't have to care about the other matters. You can take the account book." Chen Changqing nodded and said after pondering for a while.

Hearing the old man's words, Chen Shouxin also let out a long breath. He was really worried that the old man would go against him and say that he wouldn't give anything to him.

"Do you really think this kid is enlightened again?" Chen Changqing asked as he looked at his son who was happily walking away.

"Master, I don't know if Young Master is enlightened or not, but this old servant knows that Young Master is someone that late emperor praised before." Uncle Chen put away his smirking face and said with a serious expression.

"Although the young master is a bit obedient, his heart is kind." He was the first of the three great evils of the Imperial City, but how many things had he truly committed that exceeded his expectations? Did the few people he led people to beat up ever have a good thing? "

"Don't think that I don't know. It couldn't be that you were behind all this." Chen Changqing glared at him.

"Master, this old servant has been taken in by Master since childhood and has been rewarded with a surname. This old servant is someone from Chen Family. "Old master is scolding me, but if anyone else dares to extend their claws towards young master, this old servant will help young master chop them off." Uncle Chen's face showed a hint of fierceness.

"Don't be impatient, have you forgotten what that stinking brat said? It wasn't that they didn't report it, but that the time wasn't right yet. "How long until our people arrive here?" Chen Changqing shook his head and asked.

"The shortest is three days, while the longest is five days. This time, thirty people had come, which was enough to deal with the situation. Old master, do you think the young master can discover anything? "What we lack right now is evidence." Uncle Chen asked curiously.

"How would I know?" I don't even know what's going on in his head. He's probably been too depressed these few days. Let him have some fun. " Chen Changqing shook his head helplessly.
