Mr. Yang nodded and brought Zhang Defa and his wife into the carriage. When they arrived at the small restaurant at the entrance of the alley, the fat shopkeeper saw Zhang Defa get out of the carriage. With a fierce expression, he reached out and said, “Zhang Defa, settle the money for the food and drinks that your son owes. This shop is small and can’t afford to debts.”

Chen Zhaodi got out of the carriage and sneered. “Yo! You can’t afford to be owed money, but you often give it to my Guisheng?”

Zhang Defa glared at her and smiled awkwardly at Shopkeeper He. “Shopkeeper

He, please be magnanimous. I’ll pay you together in a few days.”

Mr. Yang got out of the car and took a piece of silver and placed it in Shopkeeper He’s hand. “Is that enough?”

Shopkeeper He weighed it in his hand and estimated that it was more than five taels. He smiled and said, “It’s enough, it’s enough. Thank you, noble.”

Chen Zhaodi raised her head and looked at Shopkeeper He arrogantly. “Miser, tightwad, remember to settle the bill.”

“Just take care of your son,” Shopkeeper He said with a pout. He twisted his chubby butt and turned into the shop.

Zhang Defa pulled the drunk Zhang Guisheng up from the table. “Let’s go,

Guisheng. Mr. Yang from the capital is treating our family to a meal.”

“Let’s eat,” Zhang Guisheng muttered as Zhang Defa helped him into the carriage.

When they arrived at the restaurant, a smart shop assistant smiled eagerly and led them upstairs.

Mr. Yang politely ordered a table of dishes and wine. As soon as the dishes were served, Chen Zhaodi looked at the pot of fat chicken served by the shop assistant. Her eyes lit up, and Zhang Defa and Zhang Guisheng drooled.

Mr. Yang smiled and said, “Brother Zhang, you’re welcome. Let’s eat when the dishes are served!”

“Then I won’t stand on ceremony!” Chen Zhaodi wolfed down the food and even picked up food from Zhang Guisheng’s bowl from time to time.

Zhang Defa watched reservedly and smiled apologetically at Mr. Yang. “I’ve embarrassed myself in front of you, Mr. Yang. It’s really because my family’s fortunes have fallen and I’ve been unlucky that I’ve fallen to this state.” Mr. Yang smiled warmly. “How can life be smooth-sailing? Everyone will

encounter difficulties. After surviving, everything will turn out for the better.

Brother Zhang, you don’t have to stand on ceremony. You eat too.”

Zhang Defa was already hungry. After hearing Mr. Yang’s words, he was so touched that his eyes turned red. He cupped his hands at him and said, “Sir, we won’t stand on ceremony.”

Mr. Yang smiled and said, “Please.”

After the Zhang family ate and drank their fill, Mr. Yang said to Zhang Defa, “Brother Zhang, as long as you follow me to the capital…”

“Go to the capital?” Chen Zhaodi wiped the oil off her mouth and looked at Mr.

Yang with sparkling eyes. “Sir, can the doctors in the capital treat my Guisheng’s leg? Mr. Yang, you don’t know, but my Guisheng was originally going to take the High Scholar examination, but he was hit by that damn cart.”

When Mr. Yang heard this, he raised his eyebrows and said, “So Scholar

Zhang’s leg became like this because someone hit it? Was it an enemy?”

Chen Zhaodi choked and said, “Isn’t that so? In order to treat Guisheng’s leg, I sold my daughter…”

Zhang Defa patted her and interrupted her. He looked at Mr. Yang and said, “Sigh! They’re not enemies. We’re just unlucky.

Zhang Defa told Mr. Yang what had happened that day and looked at him expectantly. “Sir, there must be a divine doctor in the capital. I wonder if you can help find a doctor for my son and see if he can be treated?”

Zhang Guisheng also looked up at Mr. Yang hopefully.

Mr. Yang touched his chin and looked at the Zhang family. He thought about how to paint this picture to make the Zhang family willingly help Madam.

Mr. Yang thought for a moment and slowly said, “Brother Zhang, I heard that your Scholar Zhang was originally betrothed to the Li family. Do you know how glorious the Li family is now?”

Zhang Defa’s family looked at him and shook their heads. “I don’t know. I only know that she got promoted.”

Mr. Yang told the Zhang family about Li Yu’s family’s recent situation. Zhang Defa and Chen Zhaodi were dumbfounded.

Second Madam Zhang’s in-laws regretted it so much that their intestines turned green. They thought to themselves that if only they hadn’t chased Xiaoyu away back then, te immense wealth would have belonged to the Zhang family.

Mr. Yang looked at them and said, “As long as you help my master do it, I’ll report it to my master and beg her to help you hire an imperial doctor to treat your son. If you’re capable and my master is satisfied, she’ll help him find a teacher and help him take the scholarly examination as soon as possible.”

When he heard that she could help treat his crippled leg and do a good deed by helping him find a teacher to help him take the scholarly examination, Zhang Guisheng looked up at Mr. Yang excitedly. ‘What do you want us to do, Sir?”

Zhang Defa also looked at him and said firmly, “As long as you can help my

Guisheng treat his leg, I’m willing to go through thick and thin.”

Chen Zhaodi also nodded seriously. Zhang Guisheng was touched and grabbed his parents’ hands. The family looked at Mr. Yang and waited for him to speak. Mr. Yang smiled and said, “You only need to do this and that… Are you willing? Zhang Defa and his family nodded excitedly. “We’re willing.”

“From today onwards, you have to remember that the enemy instructed someone to hit your son’s leg. Do you understand?”

When Zhang Defa and his wife heard Mr. Yang’s words, they suddenly felt that they had hated the wrong person in the past. “Yes, yes, yes. That bitch Li Yu instructed someone to do it.”

Mr. Yang nodded in satisfaction. He took out a money bag and placed it on the table. He stood up and said, “Alright, I’ll help you get a travel pass. Go buy a few winter clothes. Think about my words along the way. Once the travel pass is done, we’ll set off immediately.”

“Yes, sir.” The three members of the Zhang family felt joy descend from the sky. They nodded excitedly and sent Mr. Yang out before going back to finish the dishes on the table.

After eating and drinking their fill, the family of three sat together in satisfaction. Zhang Defa looked at Chen Zhaodi and Zhang Guisheng. “We have to remember Mr. Yang’s words. Whether our family can make a comeback depends on this time. That bitch Li Yu instructed someone to knock Guisheng into this state because she was afraid that our Guisheng would trample them to death after he achieves his goals! Guisheng, from today onwards, you have to hurry up and study. Our family will depend on you in the future.”

Zhang Guisheng replied solemnly, “Father, Mother, don’t worry. I’ll definitely regroup and get an academic title to let you live a good life.”

Zhang Defa looked at his son excitedly. “Alright! I was waiting for you to say that. I believe you can do it.”

Chen Zhaodi seemed to see the timid Li Yu begging for mercy in front of her again. She slammed the table excitedly and smiled. “Isn’t that bitch Li Yu as strong as an ox? When the time comes, we’ll let that bitch Li Yu pull the mill for us.”

Zhang Defa interrupted Chen Zhaodi’s imagination. “Alright, let’s go buy a winter coat first. We’ll set off after packing up.”

The waiter of the restaurant looked at the three people walking downstairs and frowned in thought.

The next morning, Zhang Defa’s family sat in a carriage with a strong horse. The family looked forward to a beautiful future and followed Mr. Yang to the capital..
