“Why is Fang Rou following them? Are you planning to let her study in the city?” Shi Song didn’t know what his daughter was thinking.

“That’s right. Isn’t the Chen family’s oldest son in the city? Is there a problem with asking their family for help?” Shi Yan didn’t think that her request was too much, but Shi Song frowned.

“No! Don’t get involved with the Chen family again!”

Liu Cui felt that Shi Yan’s idea wasn’t bad. After all, once Shi Sen and Bai Lan left, they would completely escape their control. If they really became rich in the city, they definitely wouldn’t come back.

“I think Yan’er makes sense. If Shi Sen really becomes a champion, there will definitely be benefits.”

Although Liu Cui didn’t think highly of Shi Sen, the city leader and the village chief did. If Shi Sen really became successful, they couldn’t let her escape the control of the Shi family.

“I can’t control what you guys do! If Fang Rou is willing to enter the city with her cousin, so be it. They can take care of each other.” With that, Shi Song walked straight back to the house.

“Dad agreed?” Shi Yan didn’t understand what Shi Song meant, so she asked Liu Cui.

“He also wants the child to be successful, but Shi Sen is not as obedient as Rou Rou. He also wants Rou Rou to live a good life.”

Liu Cui knew that Shi Song was worried that Shi Sen would cut ties with their family. After all, she was his eldest son’s only daughter.

“That’s good. Let’s go to the Chen family again. I don’t believe she won’t agree!” Shi Yan said as she perked up. She was even better at arguing than Liu Cui was.

The two of them rushed to the entrance of the Chen family. Mrs. Chen was a little worried when she saw the mother and daughter, since Liu Cui and Shi Yan were famous for being difficult to deal with. She was helpless against them.

“Sister Liu Cui, I really don’t have that much money on hand. Why don’t I give you half of it and wait for my oldest son to send me the money before giving you the rest?”

Mrs. Chen knew that her son was in the wrong, so she didn’t want to be entangled with the Shi family anymore.

“I don’t need you to pay so much money this time!” Liu Cui had a smile on her face. When she saw her neighbors looking at her, she said to Mrs. Chen, “Let’s go in and talk.”

Although Mrs. Chen was unwilling, she didn’t dare to leave Shi Yan and Liu Cui at the entrance. With a bitter expression, she brought them into the courtyard.

She didn’t know where the second son of the Chen family had gone, so if they fought, she wouldn’t be their match.

“Mrs. Chen, I heard that Brother Chen is doing well in the city?” Although Shi Yan was smiling, she still gave people a sense of discomfort.

“Sigh, he’s just teaching. The job sounds dignified, but he doesn’t earn much a month.” Mrs. Chen was afraid that Liu Cui would increase the price again, so she hurriedly said that she had no money.

“Teaching is a good job!” The smile on Shi Yan’s face became even brighter. Since the Chen family’s oldest son was teaching in the city, Fang Rou’s matter was settled.

“Rou Rou is planning to go to the city to study. You can get Brother Chen to help take care of her when the time comes.”

When she heard Shi Yan’s words, Mrs. Chen’s expression changed and she said awkwardly, “I have to ask my oldest son about this. I can’t make the decision.”

“I can make all the decisions! Mrs. Chen, don’t refuse!” Shi Yan had already made up her mind to send Fang Rou over first. She would let the Chen family’s eldest son think of a way to pay the tuition fees. Fang Rou was smart and would definitely be able to settle the matter.

“That’s right. The child doesn’t have anything else to ask of you. If you don’t agree, I really have to settle the score with you. If it really doesn’t work out, we’ll go to the police station. My son is still bedridden. If not for the fact that I care about maintaining harmony between neighbors, I wouldn’t have suffered this grievance in silence!”

Liu Cui was a little agitated and Mrs. Chen was timid. When she heard that Liu Cui was going to call the police, she immediately agreed in a panic. She said that she would contact Boss immediately and definitely settle Fang Rou’s matter.

Liu Cui and Shi Yan left the Chen family in satisfaction. Both of them had different plans in mind.

The Chen family quickly settled Fang Rou’s matter. They were just waiting to return to the city with Shi Sen, Bai Lan, and the others.

Shi Sen didn’t know what had happened until the day she went to the city with Mr. Liu and the others. She saw Fang Rou, who had also packed her luggage.

“What do you mean by this?” Shi Sen looked at Fang Rou, who was following behind her, and asked in confusion.

“I’m going to the city with you to study too. Grandma asked me to follow you and Aunt so that we can take care of each other on the way.”

Fang Rou didn’t have much luggage. Shi Yan told her to ask the Chen family’s eldest son if she lacked anything. Fang Rou didn’t like the things at home, so she had no objections.
