"They haven't given them military pay?!" He Jinseng was shocked, he couldn't believe the court would do such a thing: "How could it be possible? San Lang is a Company Commander, and he and the soldiers at the Military Office receive their silver every month."
Young Master Dou glanced at He Jinseng, pointed at him with the ledger in his hand, and said, "Tsk tsk, now I understand why you couldn't pass the scholar exam, because you're too foolish."
He Jinseng had taken the exam twice but failed to become a scholar, and already felt very upset. Hearing this, his eyes reddened with anger: "Young Master Dou, there's no need to bring up my shortcomings, even if I'm wrong, you shouldn't rub salt in my wounds, right?"
Young Master Dou: "Ha, what's wrong with revealing your flaws? If you go to a foreign land and encounter rascals and spendthrifts, they might not just expose your flaws but even kill you."
