Chapter 17: Mrs., did you really earn this money?

Food and wine were prepared for them. Yunze happened to be a little hungry, so he sat down at the warm invitation of Fang Hu's parents.

During the dinner, Yunze asked Fang Hu's father about the restaurant.

There was already a feud between him and Zheng Ming, and after what happened at the poetry meeting, this guy would never give up.

Rather than waiting for the other party to come to him, it is better to strike first. Isn't the Zheng family based on the restaurant business? Then he will make it impossible for the Zheng family to continue their business.

The Zheng family hired people to destroy other people's restaurants because they wanted to use malicious competition to buy other people's restaurants at a low price. Yunze would never let them get their wish.

However, this matter needs to be considered in the long run.

Therefore, he did not mention this matter much during the dinner. He simply said goodbye to the Fang family after a simple meal.

After going out to find a carriage and sending Ye Chen home, Yunze returned to the courtyard by himself.

As soon as I got off the car, I saw a faint light still on in my yard. It seemed that sisters Luo Yunniang and Luo Yunxi were not sleeping yet.

Yunze paid the fare, took advantage of the dim light, held an umbrella, and walked into the courtyard carrying his easel and other things.

The two sisters who heard the commotion poked their heads out of the room, their eyes full of vigilance.

When they saw it was Yunze, the two sisters' faces relaxed. But there was a trace of worry and fear in their eyes.

In the past, Yunze would often come back so late. If the two sisters didn't wait for him to come home, they would definitely be beaten and kicked.

Yunze comes home late most of the time, either after drinking too much or after losing a bet. Sometimes he doesn't come back, which is normal.

However, the two sisters did not dare to sleep until late at night. They were afraid that Yunze would come back and fight against them.

Although Yunze seemed to have changed during the day, since Yunze came back so late, they couldn't help but worry that Yunze would change back to his original appearance.

Looking at the worried and fearful eyes of the two sisters, Yunze felt a pity in his heart, and he said softly: "You are so late...why haven't you slept yet..."

As soon as he asked this question, a look of embarrassment appeared on his face. The reason why people go to bed late is not because his predecessor wants to hit someone.

He touched his nose, looked at the frightened two sisters, and said, "Have you eaten..."

Hearing this, the two sisters shook their heads instinctively. It wasn't that they didn't want to eat, but that they didn't dare to eat.

If Yunze knew that they would eat without waiting for him, he would probably have to beat them up.

Yunze glanced at the two sisters helplessly. It seemed that he still had a long way to go to convince them that he was no longer the same guy.

He didn't say anything more, but walked into the kitchen, looked at the cold dishes and rice on the table, and started to heat them up.

Seeing Yunze actually lighting up the fire with enthusiasm, the eyes of the two sisters who followed him widened. Their eyes were full of fear, and they hurriedly came to help.

Yunze didn't stop him either. Looking at the two cautious sisters, he could only shake his head.

Soon, the food was hot. Yunze served the two sisters with rice, pulled them to the table and sat down. He picked up the rice bowl and started eating.

Although he had just eaten some at Fang's house, Yunze simply ate some. Seeing that the two sisters did not dare to move their chopsticks, Yunze put some meat and vegetables into their bowls.

"Eat quickly and take a rest early... I have something to do tomorrow..."

Speaking of this, he seemed to have thought of something, and took some silver and banknotes from his body and put them on the table.

"Here are three hundred and eighty taels of silver. I have already earned the money. You don't have to worry about me paying you out again. Don't worry, I will treat you well in the future..."

Some painters paid in silver, and some paid in banknotes, so they had both. In addition to the 280 taels earned from painting, there was also a hundred taels as a reward for writing poems.

Seeing the silver on the table, the two sisters' eyes widened, filled with disbelief.

"Ms. sir... this money... is really earned by you... what can you do... to make so much money!" Luo Yunniang looked at the money in front of her, her voice full of anxiety.

She couldn't believe that she had earned so much in just half a day. She even wondered if Yunze had found a good seller and sold them again.

But Yunze didn't look like one, so she didn't show too much intensity.

"Huahua..." Yunze replied with a slight smile to Luo Yunniang.

There's something short-circuited in Luo Yunniang's brain. Painting?! Her husband-in-law can also do this kind of skill, and can he really earn so much from painting?

Although she was full of doubts, she didn't dare to ask.

"I'll go get Huang Shena's IOU back tomorrow, so you can rest assured... After you finish eating, go to bed early..."

Yunze put away the money, got up and prepared to go to bed. He was so tired that he didn't bother to wash it again.

In the kitchen, only the two sisters were left with big eyes and small eyes. However, when they looked at Yunze's leaving figure, there was a look of expectation in their eyes, and their eyes were also gleaming.

Or maybe Yunze has really changed. Thinking of this, the two sisters couldn't stop tears from pouring out of their eyes.

I've been looking forward to this day for so long, right?

"Ms. sir, you have to change for the better. Yun Niang really can't hold on any longer. If... you give me hope and then take it away again, Yun Niang will have no choice but to die..."

Luo Yunniang looked at Yunze's back and murmured to herself. Luo Yunxi, who was beside her, hugged her sister's arm tightly, with tears in her eyes as well.

After dinner, the two sisters simply washed up and went into the side room to sleep. The house has one main room, two side rooms, and a kitchen.

Because Yunze despises the two sisters as bad actors, he still lets the two sisters sleep in the side room. He has never meant to consummate the marriage with Luo Yunniang.

Luo Yunniang felt happy for a moment, because Yunze was like this, and she really didn't dare to hand herself over to Yunze.

The next morning, Yunze got up early and started practicing boxing in the courtyard. His body was really too weak. If he didn't exercise, he would be sorry for the skills he had in his previous life.

When the two sisters heard the noise, they also got up. When they saw Yunze boxing in the courtyard, the two sisters were so shocked that their mouths opened wide.

Is this really the lazy guy who didn't sleep until midnight?! Even the neighbors next door were shocked by Yunze's changes.

Luo Yunniang came to her senses and quickly took her sister to prepare breakfast. After Yunze finished a set of punches and practiced for a while, Ye Chen had already rushed over.

Yunze asked the other party to call Huang Shen over, while he himself moved the wood from the courtyard to the empty side room. It was time to build a new loom.

Although the crisis of owing money has been resolved, life must continue in the future. If he wants to make the two sisters live a good life, Yunze still has to work hard.

Moreover, Yunze has other plans.
