"Who might you be?"
Chen Qing walked out and opened the door, seeing a man dressed in plain clothes with a constable's badge hanging from his waist.
The sturdy man smiled, "Brother Chen, I'm Zhao Yousan who lives next door to your house. Due to busy official duties, working nights and resting days, I haven't had a chance to meet since Brother Chen moved here. I've come specially to congratulate Brother Chen on breaking through barriers. This small token doesn't amount to much respect."
Speaking thus, he produced five taels of silver.
He had just finished roll call and heard this news while passing the Zhou courtyard, immediately rushing to the Chen household without stopping.

"Brother Zhao is too kind." Chen Qing smiled and didn't stand on ceremony.
Seeing this, the smile on Zhao Yousan's face deepened.
