“However, Second Brother, we can’t accept those fabrics. They are too precious.”

Xiang Zhifu was unhappy. “I didn’t want to accept it either. I only asked for a few pieces of fabric. However, Landlord Wang kept pestering me, so I had to accept it. Anyway, he was the one in the wrong this time.”

“Just accept it. Take it as a thank-you gift from me. After all, I’ve caused you to have diarrhea for so long this time. I’ve also implicated you.”

“If you don’t accept it, I won’t have the face to ask you for help in the future.”

The few of them hesitated and subconsciously looked at Xiang Zhisen.

Xiang Zhisen nodded slowly when he saw his second brother’s sincerity. “Alright, in that case, we’ll accept them all. This is a blessing in disguise. We don’t have to worry about Landlord Wang bullying us in the future. It’s a good thing.”

“Then we’ll go back first. We’ll visit Ah Heng again tomorrow.”

“I still have to ask Ah Heng first. Don’t be anxious.” Xiang Zhifu was naturally direct when he spoke to his brother.

Moreover, the villagers who came this time were all on good terms with him, so they were naturally more honest.

All of them nodded. Scholars all had pride. It was normal.

After sending off his relatives and friends, Xiang Zhifu called his second son over.

Xiang Laoer followed his father’s instructions and walked to the corner. “Father, why did you call me?”

“Where’s Ah Heng?” Xiang Zhifu felt a little guilty. Now that they had left, his smugness after being complimented had disappeared, leaving only regret. If he had known earlier, he would not have agreed to his eldest brother’s request. He would have just found an excuse to brush it off.

Now that he was in a dilemma, he was afraid that Chu Heng would be angry if he asked him.

If he did not ask, his big brother and the others would definitely come looking for him tomorrow.

“Cousin? He’s reading in the room.” At this moment, only three rooms had oil lamps lit.

Apart from the kitchen and Du Heng’s room, there was only Chu Heng’s room left. Du Heng was still teaching the children.

“Is Ah Heng alone?”

Xiang Laoer scratched his head and looked at him in confusion. “Father, who else could there be? Cousin-in-law is teaching Mother and the others how to bake the wood ear in the kitchen. It’s the last critical moment. Cousin-in-law is worried and wants to watch over it personally.”

“That’s good.” Xiang Zhifu patted his chest and heaved a sigh of relief.

When Xiang Laoer saw this, he could not help but laugh. “Father, are you doing something wrong?”

Xiang Zhifu’s mouth twitched. He followed his heart and slapped his son’s back. “What nonsense are you talking about? Go and learn how to bake wood ears.”

“Oh.” Xiang Laoer was chased away. Under his father’s threatening gaze, he did not dare to stay any longer.

Xiang Zhifu paced in the courtyard for a while before walking into Chu Heng’s room.

“Eldest Uncle, what’s the matter?” Chu Heng saw Xiang Zhifu and looked up at him. There was some paper, ink, brush, and inkstone on the table. Chu Heng seemed to be writing something.

“Am I disturbing your reading?” Xiang Zhifu asked subconsciously.

“No, it’s fine.” Chu Heng shook his head and looked at him with starry eyes. “If Uncle has something to say, just say it. There’s no need to worry.”

Xiang Zhifu relaxed a little after hearing this. He said frankly, “My big brother came to our house just now. In the afternoon, Landlord Wang came to give gifts, so I only accepted the fabrics. Landlord Wang felt that I took too little, so I thought about it and asked him to send some fabric to other houses.”

“Ah Heng, is it okay for me to do this? Will it affect you?”

“You did quite well, Eldest Uncle,” Chu Heng said with a pleasant expression.

“That’s good.”
