Chapter 212: Chapter 212 The Blind Man is Sick (3)_1

After settling her wages, Pei Qin’s savings of several dozen taels of silver were also running low.

"Damn it! If it hadn’t been for the robbery, I would have been able to afford some simple furniture by now!" Pei Qin grumbled, clutching the twelve taels of silver left in her hand, unable to resist cursing again.

Feng Wei was about to come over to ask them to send a meal to Mo Heng for dinner when he overheard her cursing and paused in his steps, quickly turning back.

Mo Heng heard him return and asked, "What’s wrong?"

Feng Wei felt a moment of embarrassment, "Forgot to take something." He picked up something random and went out again with it.

Pei Yuan and Pei Qian were both out, washing clothes.

Feng Wei had no choice but to bite the bullet and ask Pei Qin to send dinner to Mo Heng that night.

Pei Qin was in the midst of cursing the robber when she heard his voice and suddenly leaped up, "Holy shit! I’ve finally figured out what’s wrong! Was it you who robbed me!?" Ever since they rented Old Father Kong’s courtyard, she always found something off about this blind man’s attendant. No matter how he changed his voice, she recognized it.

Feng Wei’s complexion changed, and he promptly denied it, "Robbery!? Ms. Pei, don’t make baseless accusations!"

Pei Qin grabbed his collar in one swift move, "I recognized your voice, still pretending!?"

Feng Wei stood firm, "I really haven’t robbed anyone, Ms. Pei, you’ve got the wrong person!"

Pei Qin wasn’t about to listen to him, and she threw a punch at his left eye.

Feng Wei gasped, surprised by the strength of this slender young girl.

After throwing the punch, Pei Qin withdrew her hand, grinding her teeth, "I’m in need of money right now, waiting for him to return it doubled!"

"Return it doubled? Then Ms. Pei doesn’t have to worry. The one you encountered might not be a real robber. When the time comes, if they said they’d return it doubled, they’d surely pay you back. But I’m not the one who robbed a young girl!" Feng Wei finished explaining and didn’t stay long; he quickly left.

"Not you my ass! Robbing a woman, I’ve never seen such a coward! If you’ve got the guts, go rob from the rich to give to the poor!" Pei Qin cursed, flipping him off, still feeling unsatisfied.

After a while, Mo Heng came over with his walking stick, "I’m sorry!"

Pei Qin snorted in response.

"The silver... I will return it to you as soon as I can," Mo Heng said hesitantly.

Pei Qin snorted again, "What can you do, as a blind man?" She didn’t believe his words.

Mo Heng was silent for a good while, "I can help you shell peanuts."

"We buy shelled peanuts, no need to shell them!" Pei Qin replied irritably. This blind man had a capable, able-bodied attendant with no shallow kung fu skills, yet he chose to learn to rob, and it had to be her he targeted.

"...I can teach your brother," Mo Heng suggested.

"Thanks! He has a teacher, he doesn’t need it! And you can’t teach being blind!" Pei Qin didn’t want the ten taels of silver, and she didn’t want to get entangled with a master and servant who obviously had big trouble hovering over them.

"Didn’t you say that as long as the heart is not blind, one can see?" Mo Heng replied. Ever since he came out, he had been taking medication. If Feng Wei hadn’t been really strapped for cash, he wouldn’t have robbed her. He had previously mentioned earning ten taels of silver; he hadn’t taken it seriously.

"No need!" Pei Qin laughed sarcastically. They would be moving away soon; it was better to keep a safe distance from this obvious trouble.

However, Mo Heng wanted to do something to alleviate Feng Wei’s burden. When Wendong returned from school, Mo Heng called him over and told him that in the future he would give him extra lessons in addition to school, and asked him to come to his place every day after school.

Pei Wendong’s eyes widened, and he hurriedly ran away. When he returned, he told Pei Qin that the blind man inexplicably insisted on teaching him.
