After leaving the Cheng Family estate, Zhang Chuchu took the private carriage Zhou Zhendong had arranged for him and returned home.
When he arrived home, Zhang Chuchu didn't see his two sons and turned to his wife to ask, "Where have Zeyu and Zepei gone?"
Mrs. Tian of the Zhang Family was in the kitchen, holding a bamboo sieve filled with dried vegetables that she was about to take out to the courtyard to sun. As she passed her husband, she said:
"I heard the Celestial Break Gang's Ministry of Works Hall is recruiting again, so they went to take a look. Doing odd jobs forever is no way to make a living. You could at least arrange something for your two sons, otherwise what's the point of you working so hard over there?"
Zhang Chuchu frowned. "It's precisely because I'm there that I can't act on my own. If I were to use my position for personal gain, how could I ever show my face there again? Besides, Zeyu is a down-to-earth man. There are some jobs he's just not suited for."
