After the Hou family's mistress went crazy, she became the favorite of the entire capital.

"Just a few dishes, twelve taels!"

He Zhen was so angry that he looked up and saw that apart from a group of servants, he was the only master still present.

Unable to wipe his face, He Zhenzhi had no choice but to pay out his own money and angrily went upstairs.

In the capital, He Wangzhou spent a lot of money, and he didn't need anyone else to pay for it. He Zhenzhi naturally thought that this was the case all the way, so he only took a few dozen taels of silver with him when he went out. It's better now. One meal cost him ten taels of silver.

He didn't know how to spend money along the way, which made He Zhenzhi feel very distressed.

After a night's rest, we went downstairs early the next morning and had breakfast again.

He Chenzhi was smart, he ran out early and ran away early. Shu Yan saw this and He Wangzhou didn't say anything. It was just that Nanhuai didn't even want to look at the second young master of the Hou family.

But before leaving to check out, the waiter said: "Sir, together with yesterday's accommodation money, today's meal money, and the dry food and other things that the young master asked for, the total is twenty taels of silver."

We had agreed yesterday that the upper room only costs two taels of silver a day, and the servant's room only costs less than one tael. Even if it is connected to today's meal, there is no need to spend so much.

"What kind of food did he want?"

The waiter counted on his fingers: "Five meat pies. The young master asked for two kilograms of freshly baked meat. The young master also picked it himself. He also asked our cook to make some pastries and asked us I want some tea..."

Shu Yan only found it funny when he heard this. He Zhenzhi must have been frightened by hunger yesterday.

Twenty taels of silver was not enough to pay for a drink for Wangzhou in the capital.

He happily gave the waiter a few more taels of silver, which made the waiter grin from ear to ear.

He Wangzhou called Ah Si and whispered a few words. When leaving, Ah Si would stop and go. Every time he stopped, he would get out of the car to buy something and hand it to Xi'er. Xi'er then opened the car curtain and handed it to Shu Yan inside.

He Zhenzhi's carriage was walking at the back, and he said impatiently: "Why do you stop and go?"

The boy said, "It's the eldest son's carriage in front. The younger one saw Ah Si coming down to buy something."

He snorted angrily, "It's really too much money and nowhere to spend it."

Shu Yan looked a little distressed as he saw a lot of food placed around him.

"Ah Si, there's no need to buy it, I can't eat so much."

Ah Si smiled and said, "Young lady just picks and eats. The young master pays for it. I don't feel bad."

Who cares about his money.

He Wangzhou was looking at the storybook with interest, and when he noticed Shu Yan looking at him, he quickly put down the storybook, "What's wrong? Is there anything else you want to eat?"

Shu Yan smiled, "I can't eat anymore. Let's read your script."

He Wangzhou threw away his notebook and put it up shamelessly.

"I won't read it anymore. The storybook is not as good as my daughter-in-law."

Shu Yan pushed him away: "You're not doing the right thing."

Outside the carriage, Ah Si and Xi'er were sitting upright, looking at their noses and hearts, but within a moment they were made to blush by the two masters in the carriage.

After leaving the town, the carriage stopped again after traveling for more than an hour.

"Second Young Master, they got out of the car to rest. Do you need Second Young Master to come down?"

"No way!"

Yesterday, we didn't stop for a moment on the road. I'm afraid I'd have to start work soon, and I'd have to leave immediately when I got off. If you go around and get cold looks from others, you might as well just read in the carriage.

He Zhenzhi started chatting behind the car curtain, picked up a book and started reading it seriously. Hearing the sound of reading, Nan Huai looked over, saw him shaking his head, and looked back in disgust.

Shu Yan was puzzled and asked He Wangzhou in a low voice: "Isn't he very good at what he does? Why is uncle still not satisfied?"

He Wangzhou didn't even bother to look.

"That's my uncle, not his uncle."

The sound of reading became louder and louder. Shu Yan took another look and said, "That's right. He's not a three-year-old child anymore. He still shakes his head while reading."

"If he likes to read, let him read. As a scholar, what can you do if you don't study? Besides, when the time comes, he will have to make a splash at his grandfather's birthday party."

He Zhenzhi's mouth went dry after reading, and the pot of water in his hand was empty again. He called the boy over, "Fill me with a pot of water."

The boy said: "Second Young Master, please take a break. You have been reading for almost an hour. We have finished drinking the water we brought. There is a stream in front of us. I went to see it just now. The water is very clear. Would you like me to go over there and make a pot for you?"

"You bastard, you want me to drink water from the ditch?"

He Zhenzhi's face darkened, and then he reacted, "What did you say? They have been stopped for more than an hour?"

After thinking about it, He Xiangzhi asked the boy to go to the front to ask for some water and go relieve himself.

When he came back, his carriage was the only one left.

The boy held the kettle and waited anxiously. He was relieved when he saw him come back, "Young master, you are back. The eldest master and the others have been gone for a while, so let's hurry up."

He Jianzhi cursed twice.

If there were outsiders present, He Zhenzhi would not dare to say this. Now that there is no one around, he dares to curse. If he and He Wangzhou hadn't shared the same ancestor, he would have scolded all of He Wangzhou's eighteen generations of ancestors.

Fortunately, they didn't fall too far behind, and He Genzhi quickly caught up with them. Ah Si glanced back and said, "Young Master, the Second Young Master is following you."

He Wangzhou's slightly mocking voice came from the carriage: "Well, rest right here."

Seeing the carriage in front of him stop again, the boy could only turn around and congratulate him: "Second Young Master, they have stopped again."

He opened the car curtain thoughtfully and said, "Stopped again?"

He Wangzhou clearly did it on purpose!
  He jumped out of the carriage, but before he could take two steps, the carriage continued to move forward. He Zhenzhi took two steps forward, insisting on asking what He Wangzhou meant.

The carriage that was walking normally just now suddenly started running forward, and the remaining three carriages also ran forward together as if they had made an appointment, with only He Zhenzhi chasing after them like a fool.

"Second Young Master, come up quickly."

The boy hurriedly drove the carriage beside him and let him get on. He lowered his head and concentrated on driving, not daring to look at He Zhenzhi's face as dark as the bottom of a pot.

"Sir, he's getting in the car."

Ah Si's voice was filled with laughter, and even Xi'er snickered several times.

He Wangzhou leaned against Shu Yan, looking at the wonderfulness of the words, so he responded lazily. "Um."

Shu Yan smiled and said, "You tease him like this, aren't you afraid that he will go back and sue you?"

"Excuse me. You have to endure some hardships when you go out. If you can't bear this little hardship, how will you be the heir apparent of the Marquis Mansion and inherit the title?"

Shu Yan took away his notebook and said, "You have no intention of arguing at all. So what if he can't bear the hardship? The old Marquis is obviously biased towards your second brother. If he really does..."

He Wangzhou took his storybook back and opened it to the page he was reading just now, not paying attention.

"Yan'er, there are not many people who can be a marquis with a pen. Besides, do you think he can hold a pen well?" (End of Chapter)
