After time travel, I ate glutinous rice bran in ancient times

The old housekeeper brought over five taels of silver. Wang Youcai took the silver and deliberately raised it high for everyone to see: "Everyone, look at it, this is five taels of silver!"

Then he handed it to Wang Yugui and said, "Yugui, just click it and put it away!"

Wang Yugui smiled, took the silver, looked at it, raised it like Wang Youcai, and said loudly: "Everyone, yes, this is indeed five taels of silver!"

"My account with Mr. Wang has been settled."

After saying that, he walked up to the village chief and his second uncle and said with a smile: "Village chief, second uncle, thank you both. I have troubled you to make another trip."

"I'm going back to the city now. I'll visit you two next time I come back!"

"Hey, okay, Yugui, come back often when you have time. You see, the people in the village welcome you very much."

"It's better for you young people to do things. My uncle is old and he won't listen to my uncle's words about being rich. But I think he can still listen to your words."

"In the future, you should give him more encouragement so that he can accumulate more virtues for our old Wang family!" The second uncle smiled and nodded.

After Wang Youcai heard this, the smile on his face froze: "Second uncle, you, look at what you said..."

The village chief also smiled and said: "Yes, Yugui, you are different now than before. You have made a fortune after entering the city, and you are much more knowledgeable than the people in our village."

"It's not easy to get Mr. Wang to come up with money. Because of Ergou's matter, your uncle and I came here a lot, and we ate a lot! Haha!"

Then he smiled and said: "Are you going back to the city now? Then, let me and my uncle see you off together."

"Well, okay, let's see him off together. I just want to walk around." The second uncle said and stood up. Wang Yugui hurriedly stepped forward to help him.

After hearing what the village chief said, Wang Youcai wanted to refute, but was speechless for a moment and just opened his mouth: "Ah, this, I..."

The second uncle took two steps and said to Wang Youcai who was standing aside: "Youcai, now that the matter is done, you can go back to your big house to rest. There is no need to send us off!"

"Hey, okay, second uncle, village chief, then you go slowly!" Wang Youcai came back to his senses and said with an embarrassed smile.

Wang Yugui, his second uncle, and the village chief all left. Naturally, everyone was chattering and followed them lively...

Wang Youcai, the old housekeeper, two young servants, and a few empty chairs were left silently in front of the Wang family's door.

"His grandma's, what's going on? Master, I spent five taels of silver, but that guy Wang Yugui gave me the limelight!"

"What did the second uncle and the village chief mean by what they said just now? Did they say it to me on purpose to try to flatter me? Grandma, this is a slap in my face!"

Wang Youcai stomped his feet in anger, turned around and entered the Wang family gate.

The old housekeeper took out his handkerchief and wiped his sweat while chasing after him, comforting him: "Master, don't be as knowledgeable as that kid, just settle the matter first."

"If there is a chance in the future, I will deal with that boy Wang Yugui again..."

Before the old housekeeper could finish speaking, he suddenly saw the figure in front of him flicker, and with a "plop", Wang Youcai suddenly fell to the ground, foaming at the mouth, and started convulsing...

Oops, no, Wang Youcai's epilepsy had another attack. The old housekeeper rushed forward and hurriedly stuffed the handkerchief that he had wiped with sweat for several days into Wang Youcai's mouth!

……

Under the escort of everyone, Wang Yugui came to the entrance of the village, jumped on the carriage, and hurried back to Wangtian County.

When I got home, I told my mother, Mrs. Wang, what happened.

When Mrs. Wang heard that her son had asked for five taels of silver back, she was very surprised: "Oh, my dear, I didn't expect you to get the money back from Wang Youcai!"

"Mom is still thinking that these five taels of silver will be regarded as a good deed by our family. At least it has saved two dogs' lives. It is worth the loss for us."

"I didn't expect that you not only saved Ergou's life, but also made Wang Youcai pay for it. Haha, Gui'er, you are really capable!"

Mrs. Wang looked at her son as she spoke, her eyes full of pride and relief.

"Haha, mother, actually I'm not reluctant to part with five taels of silver. I just don't want to take advantage of that black-hearted guy Wang Youcai!" Wang Yugui smiled.

Wang was happy, but she was still a little worried: "Wang Youcai must hate you to death, right? Gui'er, you have to be careful when you return to the village in the future."

"Wang Youcai is not only stingy, but also very narrow-minded. He is used to being domineering in the village."

"He doesn't even pay much attention to the village chief and his second uncle. He will definitely try to make amends for the loss he suffered today!"

"Well, mother, what you said makes sense, but I am upright and aboveboard, so I am not afraid of him." Wang Yugui smiled

He looked at his mother and said, "Hey, mother, don't worry!"

"I don't live in Xiaowang Village now. Wang Youcai can't even reach me if he wants to take revenge, haha!"

"Haha, that's right. He just messes around in the village. When he gets to the city, who does he mess with? Who knows him?" Mrs. Wang also laughed.

Wang Yugui told Mr. Wang again that he would have his imperial examination in about ten days, so he had to hurry up and read and couldn't waste any more time.

Wang nodded and asked, "I don't know when Chunsheng and the others will come?"

"I guess it's going to be soon. It will take five or six days at most. We still have to go to Huaizhou three days in advance." Wang Yugui smiled

……

In the evening, Wang Yugui wrote a letter to tell Miss Tan what happened in Xiaowang Village.

Miss Tan had returned from the farm to worship her ancestors. She was deeply shocked when she read Wang Yugui's letter.

She didn't expect that there was such a stingy and vicious landlord as Wang Youcai in the world.

She praised Wang Yugui's brave move to save people, but she felt that there was no need for Wang Yugui to waste time in a battle of wits and courage with someone like Wang Youcai.

Miss Tan thinks that Wang Yugui should report to the official directly and let the people in the yamen go directly to Wang Youcai and supervise him to treat Ergou.

Ms. Tan’s original words were: Such civil matters should be reported to the official! Otherwise, what's the use of a yamen!

"Hey!" Wang Yugui looked at the letter and smiled. Miss Tan lives in a wealthy family, how could she know how difficult Wang Youcai's kind of hard-edged man can be!

If he hadn't done it right, how could he have given in so easily!

However, Mr. Hai is wise and honest enough, and maybe he can handle it better than himself.

You can also give Ms. Tan’s suggestion a try.

That’s all, just think of me as helping Mr. Hai share his worries.

……

Silent all night.

In the afternoon of the next day, Wang Yugui was reading and practicing calligraphy upstairs when Mrs. Wang knocked on the door and came in.

"Gui'er, Mom made some cookies for afternoon tea. Come and eat some to cushion your stomach." Wang smiled and put the cookies on the table.

Wang Yugui said with a smile: "Okay, I just happened to be tired from reading. Let's take a rest!"

"Mom, you have been making delicious food for me these days. I think I am almost getting fat. Have you eaten, eldest sister?"

"Haha, the eldest sister ate it, and my second sister's, and my mother also left a few of them. Don't worry, my mother has never been partial." Wang laughed.

Wang Yugui looked at Mrs. Wang with a smile: "Mom, have you eaten?"

"Ha, mother will go down to eat later, you eat first." Mrs. Wang looked at her son and smiled.

Wang Yugui hurriedly took a cookie and gave it to Mrs. Wang: "Mom, let's eat it together!"

He poured another cup of tea for Mrs. Wang and said with a smile: "Mom, drink tea!"

"Hey, okay, then let's eat together. Mom just has something to tell you." Wang didn't refuse, took the cookie, took a sip of tea, and started eating.

Wang Yugui hurriedly asked: "Mom, what's going on?"
