Chapter 1343: One Family
Yu Nian: “I…”
Salted Fish said, “What’s wrong with you? Did you do something illegal? Or did you visit a prostitute without paying?”
Yu Nian rolled his eyes . “I have never been to that kind of place . ”
Salted Fish said, “Heh heh…”
Yu Nian said, “I’m really nervous . ”
Salted Fish said, “Nervous my ass! Let me tell you as an elderly ancestor . A clear conscience laughs in the face of a false accusation . Aren’t cultured people like you who write books most particular about righteousness? Ancient scholars have righteousness in them . They aren’t afraid of ghosts or evil, nor are they afraid of power . Although what you did is like that of a retard… you have to understand a principle!”
Yu Nian said, “What principle?”
Salted Fish said in an old, experienced tone, “You aren’t an ordinary retard . You are a retard who holds the moral high ground!”
Yu Nian rolled his eyes . “Isn’t that still a retard?”
Salted Fish said matter-of-factly, “The prefix is long . That makes you better than ordinary retards . ”
“…You really know how to comfort people . ”
Salted Fish said, “You are only foolish, but you didn’t harm others, so you are a good person . Those people are smart, but they used their intelligence on evil . That makes them bad people . Sometimes, smart people do bad things . They are much more wicked than fools . ”
Yu Nian said, “This consolation is better than the one before it . ”
Salted Fish said, “Alright, stop frowning . I’m here . I’ll help you resolve such a trivial matter!”
Yu Nian asked, “How?”
Salted Fish rubbed his belly and said, “Before I start working, I need to be full . Do you have any local vegetarian dishes?”
Although Yu Nian suspected that this salted fish was unreliable his entire journey, he now confirmed it .
This salted fish was unreliable!
However, being unreliable was better than not having him . Therefore, Yu Nian had no choice but to lead Salted Fish to an eatery .
They ate local delights . Although Salted Fish ate Crystal Rice every day, he hadn’t had other flavors before . He found it refreshing once he had something different .
As for the rice in the restaurant?
“This thing can also be called rice? Forget it, I’ll focus on eating the dishes . ” Salted Fish mumbled as he squatted in the corner and ate the food .
There was nothing they could do about it . Salted Fish was too conspicuous . If he were to really eat at a seat in the restaurant, everyone probably wouldn’t be able to eat . They would all look at him .
Then, news of Venerable Salted Fish’s visit to the county city that day would spread across WeChat Moments . Then, Yu Nian would become famous again .
As for invisibility?
Salted Fish said, “I’m an old man . I don’t study those unorthodox ways!”
In reality, he was just trying to skive .
In Fangzheng’s words, this silly fish doesn’t even know how to fly . How much can you count on him?
After the meal, the duo did not return to Yu Nian’s house but headed straight for Hu Xiaoye’s house .
When they reached downstairs, Yu Nian said, “What do we do now?”
Salted Fish said, “What do we do? Go ask for money . I’ll wait downstairs . ”

Yu Nian was instantly dumbfounded . “You’re waiting downstairs? Then why did you come?”
Salted Fish flicked his whiskers and said proudly, “Of course I’m here to watch the fun . As a witness, do you expect an elder like me to help you fight?”
Yu Nian suddenly had the urge to eat a chili pepper fish head…
However, Yu Nian held back and said, “Venerable Salted Fish, if I can get it back myself, would I need to look for you?”
Salted Fish pinched his whiskers and said, “Yes, it’s not impossible for me to make an appearance, but the appearance fee is very expensive . ”
“How expensive?” Yu Nian asked, his heart aching .
Salted Fish thought for a moment . Red Boy had earned a hundred bucks from beating up someone at the foot of the mountain . He couldn’t possibly earn less than he did, right?
Therefore, Salted Fish looked up and said proudly, “Two hundred!”
The moment that was said, Yu Nian was dumbfounded as he exclaimed, “How much?”
In Yu Nian’s impression, getting a hooligan cost tens of yuan and he would need to treat him to a meal . It would cost about 100-200 yuan .
Even if the salted fish in front of him didn’t have any divine powers, just its breed and appearance alone would at least be worth a thousand, right? Yet…
At that moment, Yu Nian’s impression of Salted Fish finally changed . It wasn’t about unreliability, but simply adorableness!
When he saw Yu Nian’s shocked expression to the point of being silent,
Salted Fish thought to himself, “Did I ask for too much?
Therefore, Salted Fish said, “It’s fine if it’s 150 . If it’s any lesser, I quit . ”

Yu Nian was instantly amused . As expected of the people on the mountain . Fangzheng’s disciples would not ask for too much . They were truly swell!
Hence, Yu Nian said, “Two hundred . I’ll give you two hundred . Can you help me now?”
Salted Fish was immediately excited when he heard that . He roared with laughter . “Ami—haha— ta—heh—ba, no problem . Let’s go . Let’s go up . What floor are they on?”
Yu Nian’s face darkened when he heard that . He had been briefing him the entire way here, but the stupid fish wasn’t even listening… A string of curses ran through his heart . What the fish!
After they reached the third floor, Yu Nian asked in a low voice, “Are we really knocking?”
Salted Fish pinched his whisker and said, “Go ahead . I’m here . What are you afraid of?”
Hence, Yu Nian knocked on the door .
Knock! Knock! Knock!
Three knocks rang on the door . The next moment, the door opened .
“It’s you?” The person who opened the door was a girl wearing spectacles . She had delicate features and looked a little weak . When she saw Yu Nian, her face was full of surprise but there was not much guilt .
“Why are you here?” Hu Xiaoye asked .
Yu Nian looked at the girl in front of him and his heart felt a stabbing pain . He sighed . “What do you think?”
Hu Xiaoye thought for a moment and said, “I think it’s over between us . My dad doesn’t agree to it, so let’s leave it . Don’t come looking for me in the future . You’re quite a nice guy…”
When Yu Nian heard this, his heart ached even more . He said bitterly, “Quite a nice guy… Haha, is this your definition of me?”
Hu Xiaoye shook her head and said, “Then what do you want me to say?”

This time Salted Fish had used a concealment spell to go invisible . He whispered, “Let her pay up!”
Only then did Yu Nian remember the purpose of his visit . “I came back to get my house and the betrothal gifts . ”
Hu Xiaoye was taken aback before she fell silent . “You have to talk to my father about this…”
When Yu Nian heard this, he was completely disappointed with this girl . The money was in her hands, and the house was written in her name . In the end, she washed her hands of the matter by telling him to talk to her father!
At this moment, Yu Nian had completely given up on Hu Xiaoye . The last trace of gentleness in his eyes disappeared .
At that moment, a fierce voice sounded . “Xiaoye, who is it?”
Hu Xiaoye immediately said, “It’s Yu Nian . ”
Salted Fish cursed softly when he heard that . “Holy sh*t, it’s no wonder they are going back on their word . This family is shameless! This girl looks innocent, but she’s more scheming than you! In the beginning, she was pretending to be innocent, but now she’s showing her true colors! She doesn’t pretend to be the nasty one, but she’s not much better than her father . ”
Yu Nian nodded slightly . He was a writer and was best at analyzing a person’s inner thoughts and logical reasoning . Therefore, Hu Xiaoye’s actions were clear . She did not want to discuss the money with Yu Nian . She directly got her father to chase him away!
