The son-in-law of a prosperous family

"And I heard that he cheated a lot of money. If he runs away now, he can take the money and live a carefree life somewhere else. I really can't swallow this."

Zhao Yunchuan just smiled and didn't take it seriously.

"This is a serious question, how can you still laugh?"

Zhao Yunchuan: ...

He was obviously laughing at Wu Chengen's arrogance.

"Do you think you are a smart person?" Zhao Yunchuan suddenly asked.

Jiang Li didn't understand why he asked himself this question, but he still answered confidently: "Of course I am a smart person. You don't even know what my nickname was when I was a child. It was called Dacongming. Do you know why? Because everyone thinks I am smart!"

So he lives up to his name!

The corners of Zhao Yunchuan's mouth twitched. So... smart?

To be honest, this name doesn’t seem to be a compliment!

Did Jiang Li misunderstand something?

Feeling that Zhao Yunchuan's gaze was a little strange, Jiang Li frowned: "Why are you looking at me like that?"

Zhao Yunchuan: "I'm looking at you with a very smart look!"

At this moment, Jiang Li felt that he was fine again.

Yes, he is really smart!

"But why are you suddenly asking me if I'm smart? What does this have to do with Wu Chengen?"

"You are so smart that you know he is going to escape. How can those smarter people than you not know? Will those smart people who have been cheated of their money just stand by and watch?"

of course not!

As Zhao Yunchuan expected, those smart guys had already sent people to keep a close eye on Wu Chengen, and there were people guarding the front and back doors of the inn!

Even if Wu Chengen just took a shit, there were people standing outside!

"You have nothing to do every day, right? Why are you staring at me?"

The servant was very polite: "Don't be angry, Master Wu. Our master heard that you were not in good health and was afraid that you might have an accident, so he sent me to take care of you!"

The words were very respectful, but there was a look of contempt on his face.

Everyone already knows what happened today. There is a 90% chance that the Wu Chengen in front of us is an imposter.

They are all young and energetic guys, how can they be willing to be made fun of?

Find someone to keep an eye on him. If it is confirmed later that he is an imposter, those who have been deceived...

Haha, this liar will definitely be punished.

"I'm in good health now. I don't need you to take care of me. Go back to where you came from. Get out of here!"

"Master Wu, I'm really sorry. Although I am a servant, I am not your servant. I only listen to our Master. If you asked me to guard you, then I must guard you well!"

It sounds nice to say it's care, but in fact it's just surveillance!

There were people guarding him everywhere, and there were several different groups of people. Wu Chengen just felt a headache. With such close guards, how could he escape with all the gold, silver and treasures?

Hey……

difficult!

Wu Chengen is now like an ant on a hot pan, anxious and restless. He originally thought that the current situation was already very serious, but he didn't expect it to be even more serious.

The waiter came to him with a stack of bills.

"Mr. Wu, the rule of our inn is to settle the bill every ten days. You haven't settled the bill for almost half a month. How about settling the bill today?"

Wu Chengen was so angry. He wasn't even in such a bad state yet, but these people couldn't wait to come up and step on him, right?

"Hahaha……"

He was so angry that he laughed out loud, and saw the waiter looking at him with a very complicated look.

Could it be that he has been shocked and gone crazy?

Wu Chengen laughed so hard that tears came out of his eyes. The waiter just felt uneasy and decided to leave.

Just when he decided to quietly leave, Wu Chengen finally stopped laughing, and he looked at the waiter with a sharp gaze.

"Why? Do you think I can't afford your room?"

The waiter shook his head: "Of course not, it's just that the rule of our inn is to pay off every ten days. I'm just an employee, and I hope that kind-hearted people like Mr. Wu won't embarrass poor people like us!"

Although he said flattering words, the waiter was actually rolling his eyes to the sky in his heart.

It is only right to pay back your debts!

It is normal to pay the bill if you owe money, but what happens? The debtor becomes the boss and the debt collectors have to kowtow to him!

How can there be such truth in this world?

After hearing what the waiter said, Wu Chengen's expression looked much better.

"Tell me, how much?"

The waiter took out an abacus and calculated a lot. He said as he calculated, "You stayed in our inn for half a month, all in the best rooms, plus the dishes for three meals a day, the total is... one hundred and fifty-seven taels and two cents."

"Our shopkeeper is a fan of your book. He has already instructed that the decimals can be eliminated, so you only need to pay one hundred and fifty-seven taels."

How many?

One hundred and fifty-seven taels?

Wu Chengen just felt his forehead hurting even more. Do you need so many?

Although he had saved a lot of silver during this period, it was less than three hundred taels in total. But who would have thought that just staying in an inn would cost him more than half of the silver.

Ah ah ah ah ah!

He wanted to escape, but he couldn't!

"You must have miscalculated. I've only been staying here for half a month. How could it cost so much money? You must have miscalculated!"

"No, we remember every single thing you spent at our inn. The bill is here. Why don't you calculate it yourself?"

Wu Chengen had also learned abacus. He grabbed the abacus and started calculating. Although he calculated a little slowly, he was extremely careful. After a long time, he finally figured it out.

That’s right, it’s exactly one hundred and fifty-seven taels and two cents.

"There must be something wrong with your bill. Look here, tea eggs. Can I eat fifty tea eggs in the morning?"

Are you kidding? He is not a pig!

The waiter reminded him, "Mr. Wu, have you forgotten that you felt sorry for the beggars on the street, so you asked the kitchen staff to send a hundred tea eggs to the dilapidated temple?"

Wu Chengen: …

Uh……

It seems that this is indeed the case!

He had just become rich at that time. The poor man who had just become rich wanted to engage in revengeful consumption and experience the feeling of being superior, so he gave alms to beggars on the street. Sure enough, he saw admiration and gratitude in the beggars' eyes.

This greatly satisfied his vanity.

"Mr. Wu is really kindhearted. Today you sent fifty tea eggs to the dilapidated temple, and tomorrow you sent fifty white flour buns to the dilapidated temple. I heard that you also want to send them bird's nests?"

"It's a pity that we don't have many bird's nests at home. We are out of stock!"

At this moment, Wu Chengen really wanted to travel back in time. Haha, when he punched hard, all that went out was pure silver!

He wants to cry!
