Chapter 142 There is no love without reason
"Is Cheng Rui coming to Yuecheng in the next two days? He may not be able to go to the house for the time being. I have been very busy recently. The construction of the building has already begun, and there are many new dishes and new things to teach them."
Shangguan Yue thinks about new dishes and many modern new things every day. If the store does not add some new ideas from time to time, it will soon be overwhelmed or replaced by others. It is very important to innovate.
"Look after the house, little sister, if you have anything to do, please share some with me! I get anxious when I have nothing to do now, I need to work to enrich myself."
Zeng Qianer now feels that having something to do will keep her from being bored and having random thoughts. She also likes these innovative jobs. As her second and youngest sisters said, it gives her a sense of accomplishment.
"Big sister, there really are some. If you have time, go to Jiazi Lane and see how many boys and girls between the ages of thirteen and eighteen there are. I need to form a dance troupe, and we need ten boys and ten girls each. If you don't have enough, please help me buy some at the children's shop.
After buying them, we will hire musicians to teach them how to sing, dance, play the piano, etc. In the future, these performance teams will not only perform in Lanyue Pavilion, but we can also hire them to perform at the opening of our company or other people’s stores.”
Shangguan Yue thought that after their group was established, they could open an entertainment company under it to undertake commercial performances on opening days, festivals, and other festive occasions.
"That's good. I loved dancing when I was young, but I stopped dancing after I got married."
"Big sister, do what you like. Don't give up everything just because you're married. Dancing not only makes you healthy and graceful, but most importantly, it can relieve stress and make you happy both physically and mentally."
"I know. I've figured it out now. Being happy is the most important thing. I'll go to Jiazi Lane to take a look later."
Zeng Qian'er was very motivated when there was work to do. She pulled Hua'er away without saying a few words.
She had never been to Jiazi Lane before, so she asked Li Si, who had been to Jiazi Lane, to drive the carriage. Along the way, she looked at the beautiful scenery of mountains and rivers on both sides and was in a very happy mood.

"Sir, there is news about Wang Jiu."
"Oh? Where did he hide?" Zeng Zhongkai stopped writing and said.
"They are all hiding in a small town far outside the city. It's a really good place to hide."
"Pass the order down, make sure to capture them, and check if there is a place to refine puppet medicine near where they are hiding."
"Yes."
----
"Master, are you really going to move to Yuecheng in the future?"
"Yes, I will move wherever she is."
"Ah? But..."
"No buts. As long as she is happy and safe, that's all that matters. I moved here just to protect her."
"Master, why do you have to do this? You are already 28 years old, and other people's children are about to get married. Even though she has done you a favor, there is no need to protect her secretly all the time! She doesn't know it."
"Zhou Yang, have you ever loved someone? Or have you ever been attracted to someone?"
"Master, what are you talking about? I don't get along with women. They either cry or make noises. They are annoying."
Zhou Yang thought that women were annoying. He would never marry a troublesome woman. If he did something that did not satisfy her, and she started crying and making a fuss every day, he might not be able to help but twist her head off.
"It seems you still haven't gotten it." Zhou Huaizhi tapped Zhou Yang's head with his folding fan.
He lived a happy and carefree life before he was thirteen years old. He was also very intelligent. He passed the examination for a scholar at the age of thirteen and a juren at the age of sixteen. He was the most famous person in Lincheng at that time.
His father would brag to everyone he met about how smart and capable his son was.
If, if he had not been so smart, he would not have been besieged and targeted for more than ten years. He thought the several times he almost died before the imperial examination were just accidents.
But when he passed the imperial examination and celebrated with his classmates while drinking, he fell into the river on his way home and almost lost his life. Although he drank a little too much that night, he clearly felt that someone pushed him.
If there hadn't been a big fish cage in the river to hold him up, he might have died. There were three people who went to drink that day. They were all good classmates and had all passed the imperial examination. It was impossible that they were jealous of him and wanted to harm him.
That night, the three of them supported each other as they walked away. It was not known which of the two men took action, and all three of them fell, except him, who fell into the river.
After he recovered, he wanted to ask them out again. Both of them had left Lincheng. He asked people to inquire about them. He must find them and ask them the reason.
Why were they such good classmates, why did he treat them as good friends, why did he help them financially and physically when they were in trouble, but in the end they wanted to take his life!
He was unwilling to accept this! He just wanted the truth.
Perhaps his search frightened them, or perhaps their consciences were awakened, so they sent him a note:
Sorry! I can't help myself. Be careful of Aunt Li, it's not easy.
Zhou Huaizhi read these words over and over again for dozens of times. He didn't understand why this concubine Li wanted to harm him? His father had more than ten concubines, and several of them were surnamed Li.
The family is prosperous, with more than ten or twenty illegitimate children, an older brother and two older sisters born to the same mother. Why do they want to kill him?
Just because he was smart and outstanding? He had been studying in the academy and rarely went back to Zhou's house. He didn't even know a few of the concubines.
When we went back to Zhou's house to investigate Aunt Li, we encountered several accidents on the way. The carriage lost control, rocks fell from the mountain...
After finally returning to Zhou's house, I realized that my family was no longer the same as before. My sisters had married without knowing when, and my brother had become a fool...
His return was like a sheep walking into a tiger's mouth. Not only did he fail to find out who was behind Aunt Li, but his mother also drank poisoned wine to protect him, just to get him to leave safely.
His father was no match for Li Caiju, and he didn't dare to compete with her openly. He could only protect him secretly. He hated it! If Zhou Cheng hadn't been so philandering and had provoked Li Caiju, his mother wouldn't have died.
If he was just a mediocre person and Zhou Cheng would not protect him, he could still keep his life.
But he was too outstanding, which got in her way and brought about his own death.
He was young and frivolous, and refused to fight against evil. He was determined to go to Beijing to take the exam. As long as he passed the exam and became an official, he could kill her and avenge his brothers, sisters and mother.
But he was too naive. Not only did he fail to catch up with the exam, he was almost killed on the way. Before he passed out from the serious injuries, he only saw the beautiful girl squatting beside him, with a concerned tone and look, and ordered people to send him to the clinic immediately.
He stretched out his hand and wanted to thank her, but his chest felt tight and his throat felt like there was something stuck, so he couldn't utter a word. He tried hard to open his eyes to see her more clearly.
But he only saw her running towards a man. Her flushed little face, anxious tone and movements made his eyes sting, so painful that he closed his eyes.
