    Boss Chen was injured and it was inconvenient to walk by himself, and it was even more inconvenient to find someone.

    Fortunately, he planned to take Taohong out for dinner before he came, and he still had a few coins with him.  Seeing the entanglement here and the owner's unwillingness to withdraw the rent, he stopped forcing it.

    It¡¯s true¡­the boss kept saying that Taohong only paid him two months¡¯ rent.

    In such a remote place, the rent in the town is not expensive.  Even if they all withdraw, how much will they have?

    Boss Chen was anxious to chase people and stopped arguing with his employer.  I found an ox cart and headed to the county seat.  Of course he knew that the ox-cart was not as fast as a horse-drawn carriage and had to be bumpier, but the coins in his pocket did not allow him to rent a horse-drawn carriage.

    The next morning, Boss Chen came back dejected.

    After chasing her all the way to the gate of the county town, I was surprised not to see Taohong¡¯s person.  After asking around privately, no one saw a beautiful woman entering the city alone.

    Boss Chen was unwilling to give up and gave all the coins he had to the guard guarding the door.  People said that not only yesterday, but also for dozens of days in the past, the beautiful woman in the silk shirt he mentioned had not entered the city alone.

    The guard saw that he was really anxious and helped him analyze it.  Either the woman found someone to keep company with, or she changed into ordinary common clothes.

    No matter which one, if Boss Chen wants to find someone in the county, it is like looking for a needle in a haystack.  And the copper coins he owned did not allow him to stay in the county town longer.

    In fact, after bribing the guard, he lost all his money.

    And the bullock cart that took him to the county seat had no choice but to pull him back.  It was only after Mr. Chen repeatedly promised that he would pay the fare when he returned home that the ox cart driver was willing to let him get on the bus.

    It¡¯s just that the old cow was really slow to drive, so he walked all night under the moonlight before returning to the village.

    The bullock cart driver sent the person directly to the door of Chen's house, with no intention of leaving. He looked at Boss Chen with obvious hints.

    All the money Mr. Chen had on hand was spent on Taohong.  He also plans to borrow some from the villagers and marry someone first.  How can I have money to pay the fare at this time?

    Seeing that the bullock cart driver was unwilling to give up, Mr. Chen had no choice but to find his cousin who had already separated in the next room and asked him how many coins he had taken before sending the cart driver away.

    Mrs. Ye saw that his whole body was wilted and said sarcastically: "Aren't you planning to get married? Why is that woman making things difficult for you? I have told you before that a woman like her is restless. Even if she gets married, she will not live happily with you.  Live your life"

    Sooner or later, I couldn¡¯t hide it anyway. Boss Chen closed his eyes and said, ¡°Mom, she has already run away!¡±

    Ye¡¯s eyes widened!

    "Where have you gone?" She thought of something and asked eagerly: "She said she wanted a betrothal gift before, did you give it?"

    Boss Chen nodded dejectedly: "Here you go, three taels!"

    Ye's eyes darkened, and she felt a little desperate. With the last glimmer of hope, she asked, "Have I given it back to you?"

    Boss Chen shook his head: "No! She was fine two days ago. Yesterday I went to the town to look for her and found that the house was empty. Someone in the town saw with their own eyes that she found a carriage and went to the county town. I also hired an ox cart.  I chased her all the way to the gate of the county town, and even asked the guards guarding the gate and the beggars nearby, but they all said they had not seen her."

    "Three taels of silver" Mrs. Ye hated the iron. "You ask me to tell you what you are good at. You and Guihua have been together for more than ten years and have two children. There is nothing wrong with you. You insist on marrying a foreigner.  The woman? It¡¯s fine now. The money was taken away. What are you going to do to plug such a big hole?¡±

    What else came to her mind: "Did Osmanthus come to you and tell you that Taohong was a liar and asked you to get your money back first? We have been married for more than ten years, will she harm you? I think you were drunk by the woman outside.  My mind is full of bean dregs, and I can¡¯t tell whether it¡¯s good or bad. How could I have given birth to such a fool as you?¡± She asked, stretching out her finger to poke her son¡¯s forehead.

    Three taels of silver is just a betrothal gift, not counting the gifts that Boss Chen usually gives out.  Thinking of this, Mr. Ye was so angry that his mind went crazy.

    Whenever this person gets angry, his voice will get louder and louder.  Not to mention the Chen family, even the neighbors around them heard the noise vaguely.

    The remaining rooms of the Chen family are all in the house. During dinner this morning, Fourth Uncle Chen said that the food has been put into the warehouse. In the past few days, we have chosen a suitable day to find two elders to bear witness to the separation of the family!

    After receiving the exact news, everyone was both excited and worried.

    Looking forward to dividing the family and taking charge of the family.  The worry is that I am afraid that I will suffer a loss.  The young couple stayed in their room to figure out which piece of land was best in the house, and they also speculated on their parents' savings. They even carefully identified the chickens in the backyard, which one liked to lay eggs, and caught them first when they separated, etc.  ¡­

    &Who will come out?  "

    Everyone: ""

    The next moment, everyone looked at Ye.

    Ye was very helpless.  This is a typical situation where three monks have no water to drink. When there are more people, they will blame each other.

    The most important thing now is to find the person and recover the money.  That's three taels of silver!

    She took out the few copper coins she had left and glared at her eldest son: "I put these in another place for urgent use, but your eldest brother didn't find them. There are only more than thirty copper coins in total, and they are all here. You can look at them.  Let¡¯s do it.¡±

    Everyone looked at the few coins in their mother's skinny hands with despair.

    I originally planned to use the money to buy things after the separation Brother Chen stepped forward to take a few, and said bitterly: "Brother, just recover the money. If you can't recover it, this is what you owe."  He killed several of our brothers. We must pay them back!"

    Brother Chen San looked ugly and added: "Mom, this family must be divided. Even if dad is here, I will say the same thing!"

    The brothers had worked hard for many years and finally saw this little money, but Boss Chen gave it away overnight.  The key point is that this is still a brother. Even if you want to beat him to vent your anger, you can't do it. You have to find someone to help!

    Who is not aggrieved?

    At just this moment, Fourth Uncle Chen came in from outside with his hands behind his back, still humming a little tune. When he walked in, he saw that the atmosphere was not right, and vaguely heard what the third child said just now. He frowned and asked, "What do you want to say to me?"

    Brother Chen stood at the door and said in a cold voice: "The three-tael betrothal gift given to Taohong by my eldest brother was stolen from home. Taohong has run away and can't be found."

    Fourth Uncle Chen: ""

    His vision went dark, his body went limp, and then he knew nothing.
