Capítulo 1851: Chapter 1851: Tomorrow We’ll Beat Up That Old Bastard
Lu Sanzhu struggled up into the carriage, took a couple of fierce gulps from the water pouch, and as the carriage started towards the escort agency, he squinted and said, “I just borrowed the Boss Lady’s backyard, climbed up their tree, and sat there watching and listening to the whole thing.”
People inside the carriage, “…”
So that’s why you came back so late?
But that’s not important; the old lady and the others are quite interested in the Chen family’s follow-up.
“Tell us quickly, how did they handle it in the end? Did they compensate?”
Lu Sanzhu nodded, “They compensated. Those two argued for ages, neither willing to suffer a loss. But this staff actually did steal, getting away with it as long as it wasn’t discovered. Now that it’s been discovered, compensation is inevitable. Tenfold is too much; where could he get that?”
“Later, after endless quarreling, Chen He settled for five-fold compensation, meaning this staff worked for the Chen family for two months without earning a single coin.”
The staff still refused to give in, haggled for a long time, and eventually it ended with threefold compensation.
Although Chen He was unwilling, he was at least able to pocket a little.
Then the staff paid up and cursed as he walked away.
Lu Sanzhu said, “I guess this staff definitely won’t let it go. Watching his manner, he will definitely retaliate against this Chen family general store.”
The old lady thought the same, an unscrupulous staff is clearly not someone willing to suffer losses.
Lu Sanzhu, “Not just me, Chen He thinks so too, so he told his wife who rushed over afterward that from tomorrow, the store will temporarily close, take a break for a few days. They’re going back to the prefecture city tomorrow for a few days.”
He clicked his tongue and said, “What on earth is Chen He thinking? The general store business is already bad, the staff has just been dismissed, instead of staying at the store to oversee and recruit new staff, he actually wants to close it. Closing the store for a few days means losing a few days’ money, is he dumb?”
Shu Yu leaned against the carriage wall, speaking coolly, “He’s not dumb; the benefits in the prefecture must be greater. Otherwise, why does the whole Chen family stay there and not come back? Chen He hardly returned, just for one day, and hurried back?”
The exact benefits are unknown, but they must be far greater than those from running the general store for a few days.
Upon hearing this, the old lady claps her hands fiercely, “That’s perfect. Isn’t he going to the prefecture tomorrow? We’ll follow, then find Chen Bing and teach him a good lesson.”
The old lady was very excited, didn’t expect her luck was so good, arriving on the first day, reuniting with her sister on the second day, and giving that old beast Chen Bing a beating by the third day.
Lu Sanzhu listened and also agreed, “Right, I’ll call a few people… wait, Ying Dong and Ying Xi are enough, they can take on ten.”
Mother and son, the more they talked, the more excited they became, gradually starting to discuss suitable weapons.
As the carriage was nearing the escort agency, in their minds, Chen Bing was practically a dead man.
Shu Yu laughed while holding his forehead, “Grandmother, once you find Chen Bing, do you just plan to give him a fierce beating and then call it quits?”
The old lady paused, then frowned.
Yes, what else can they do besides give him a beating?
Just like when they stormed the Ruan family’s gate with her son, didn’t that old woman live comfortably for over ten years afterwards?
