Chapter 31 The Road to Well-off (7)
Li Yannian was completely focused on the unconscious Black Bean, so how could she possibly have time to pay attention to him? She frowned slightly as she looked at Black Bean and then at the oxcart that was still tied to the door. She could not help but have a headache. A person’s unconscious body would be extremely heavy, even if she managed to drag them outside the door with great difficulty, she wouldn’t have the strength to carry Black Bean inside the car.
She had to turn to the people around her for help, and this time there was no need to pretend: “Would any uncle be willing to help? “My brother is like that, even my brother and I can’t move him.”
Then, a kind and compassionate brother and sister jumped out and said, “This is not difficult. Little girl, where do you live? Why haven’t I seen you guys in the manor before? ”
Li Yannian had no intention to reveal her information in front of everyone: “Uncle, thank you so much. Our car is right outside. Eh, it’s all thanks to you, otherwise we really wouldn’t know what to do. Uncle, you live on that street, I’ll tell our master to come and thank you. Uncle, you’re such a nice person! ”
The beautiful words were as if it was free, spitting out the words continuously from Li Yannian’s small mouth, coaxing the uncle to be beaming with joy. How could he remember to ask where the other party was just now?
“It’s just a small matter. If you don’t want to thank me, just say so.” Me? I’m just a noodle seller on the front street. I’ll know the moment I ask Old Wu. “If you’re free, come over and eat noodles. Uncle will give you one less coin.”
Uncle Wu laughed heartily. Li Yannian raised her head and sized him up. No wonder her strength was so strong, she was only here to cook, that big pot already had a few kilograms of strength to carry it.
“Okay, Uncle Wu. Next time, I’ll definitely come to your shop to eat noodles. When that time comes, you must remember to consider me cheaper!”
Not only Uncle Wu, even the people around were amused by this. This little girl was really interesting. She had previously said that she wanted her family members to come and thank her. Now that she called someone to eat noodles, it could be considered cheap. She was truly not a person for life.
“Sure, I don’t have anything on that stall of mine. If you want noodles, you have to eat it.”
While they were talking, Uncle Wu had already helped the two siblings carry Black Bean onto the ox-cart. He looked at the siblings’ expressions and was still a little worried, “Little girl, can you two do it? Do you want me to send you off? ”
Li Yannian thanked him sincerely and said: “I will drive the carriage, and my relatives will not be far from here. Don’t worry uncle, I will thank you very much today.”
Uncle Wu’s face turned red from her gratitude as he waved his hands, “It’s alright. Alright, you can go. Be careful on the way.”
“Mm, thank you uncle. Mao Dou, why aren’t you thanking Uncle Wu yet? ”
Mao Dou looked at Li Yannian and said softly, “Thank you, Uncle Wu.”
“Good boy! Your family’s adults really know how to teach children. The one in my family, aiya, has been badly skinned. ”
Uncle Wu patted Mao Dou’s head and suddenly exclaimed.
Li Yannian smiled at him, then imitated Black Bean and lightly whipped Old Cow: “Then Uncle Wu, let’s go. We’ll visit your business next time.”
Uncle Wu nodded. Seeing that she was still driving the carriage, he was relieved and returned to the infirmary. He had been suffering from shoulder pain for several days. If it wasn’t because of the pain, he wouldn’t have been willing to rest for half a day to see a doctor.
However, the moment he turned around, he almost bumped into someone.
Uncle Wu jumped in fright, he looked carefully, and could not help but be surprised: “Doctor Du, what’s wrong with your face, something doesn’t seem right, is he sick?”
Du Huichun looked at him coldly, then his gaze landed on the hand that was massaging his shoulder and laughed: “Your shoulder bones have been pulled out of position, and you still dare to mess around with people helping to carry people. Do you think your life is long enough for you to cripple yourself?”
Uncle Wu choked, unable to respond. Strictly speaking, he was shocked. Was this still the Doctor Du he used to have? Even though he still looks the same, he can poke people when he says anything.
“What are you looking at? Why aren’t you going in and waiting?” I’m a doctor myself, and I know if I’m sick or not. ”
Uncle Wu answered with embarrassment. As he walked in, he turned around to look at him. He couldn’t help but wonder if he was angered by that little girl. However, he did not think too much about it. The moment he reached the lobby, he quickly immersed himself in communicating with his fellow patients about his symptoms.
Du Huichun stood at the entrance of the infirmary and looked towards Li Yannian’s direction. He was worried that his owner would chase after him, but seeing that his expression was ugly, he asked: “Boss, this little lady … Shall I send someone to take a look and see if it’s the children of that family? ”
Du Huichun turned his head and stared at him, “What are you looking at? Can it be that a person as big as us has the nerve to get angry with a young lady? When Huang Lian wakes up, you need to calculate your wages and give him some money.
The shopkeeper secretly cursed. Who was it that was so big to provoke such a series of events with a girl like her? As a shopkeeper, he only needed to remember what the shopkeeper said and just listen to it. He absolutely did not jump up and point at the shopkeeper’s nose and say “where did you do wrong”.
Even though their boss had a big heart and a big heart, he was still able to hold a grudge even after being scolded by the little girl. Yet, he was still able to restrain his temper. The sun was rising in the west.
However, before the shopkeeper could finish sighing, he heard his boss say, “Let’s not argue with the child. We can only fuss with her family.” “Go, go to our cloth shop and ask who made the Songjiang Fine Cotton Fabric Trading today. If you are sure, immediately go back and talk.”
The shopkeeper’s mouth twitched. As expected, dogs couldn’t stop themselves from eating sh * t. Their boss’ vengeful attitude still hadn’t changed, but he still showed a respectful expression on his face. “Then I’ll let the shop assistant ask around.”
Coincidentally, the medicine shop assistant had arrived just in time, Li Yannian drove the ox-cart over. In the end, it was because she wasn’t familiar with her business that she managed to persuade Old Ox to go on a rampage.
The shop assistant caught sight of the person from the corner of his eye and immediately stopped talking with the shopkeeper. When the shopkeeper saw Li Yannian walking in, he greeted in surprise, “Eh, didn’t your uncle say you guys had gone back? But did something fall and come back? ”
Li Yannian looked for Zhang Bao anxiously, and did not notice that the person who was talking to the shopkeeper was wearing a dark blue medical gown, and only looked around: “I met with some matters on the way, and can’t go back, so I came back to ask First Uncle, where can I find an inn to stay in in?”
The shopkeeper shook his head: “Your First Uncle had just gone out to deliver the goods and I’m afraid that he won’t be able to come back soon. It’s not convenient for you kids to stay outside, why not stay in our shop and wait for your uncle to come back before cleaning up a place.”
Li Yannian smiled and tactfully declined: “No, we appreciate your kind intentions. After all, the store is a place to do business, so it’s not appropriate for us to live here. Furthermore, there’s also my little brother. He’s a bit noisy at night, so he’s fine while arguing with us and everyone else. I’m sorry, but shopkeeper, thank you very much.
The shopkeeper praised Zhang Bao’s niece in his heart. He was just casually saying that she was going to let someone live in the store. If she really agreed, then it would be difficult for him. All the shop assistants were signed, so they took the monthly money and ate and lived in the same place. For those who worked and ate, it naturally wouldn’t be much good to live there. Where could she find room for a girl in a large shared house?
As a result, when he gave the three siblings a recommendation to settle down, the shopkeeper seemed especially sincere: “There are quite a few inns in the manor, and there are a lot of merchants going in and out. If the three of you want to be lively, then go to the Great East Inn on the street in front and live. There’s food and drinks. Furthermore, a few steps away is a small yamen. Even if you fall asleep at night, you would still be able to rest easy. It’s just that the price is a bit more expensive.
“And then there’s the Hongyun Inn on the east side of the street. It was opened by the Gu family. However, the price was much more suitable. It was only two hundred letters a night. Miss Li, why don’t you discuss it with your brother. You’ve decided to tell me first, that when your uncle comes back, there will be a place to report to me. ”
Li Yannian smiled with gratitude. “Thank you, shopkeeper, then I will have to trouble you to tell my uncle that we will be staying at Great East Inn on the front street. If he is free at night, he will come over to rest.”
Li Yannian did not delay any further, she bid farewell to the shopkeeper, and went according to his instructions to the Great East Inn. In the eyes of the “ruined girl”, money was not saved, but earned. Three hundred gold was not much different from two hundred, and the shopkeeper had purposely pointed out to her that there was a small yamen near the Great East Inn. In fact, he was already warning her that it was safer to live here.
Moreover, Black Bean was still unconscious, she had to quickly find a place to rest and get someone to look for a doctor.
Li Yannian left in a hurry while the staff of the infirmary spoke to the shopkeeper quietly, “Who is this young lady? She is young, but her speech and actions are extremely quick and nimble, as if she was born in our line of work.”
The shopkeeper understood what he meant and laughed, “Yeah. When I saw her in the afternoon, I thought that she was following Zhang Dayao’s teachings and was taught by the lord to be so experienced. After hearing about it from Da Bao, I realized that this little girl is not close to the outer sect at all.
The doorman rolled his eyes, “Zhang Bao? “Is that the worker in this shop, with a square face and thick eyebrows?”
The shopkeeper was suspicious, “It’s him. Why are you asking about this?”
The shop assistant chuckled, “I’m afraid you won’t be able to work for long if I tell you the truth.” “Prepare yourself. The fourth master will have someone drive him in the next few days.”
“Ah?!”
The storekeeper couldn’t stop moaning in his heart. He had gone through so much difficulty to help this hard-working and quick-witted young master. Just what kind of play was Fourth Young Master singing about? Did he remember his enmity at Eldest Young Master’s store?
“Sigh, he should be considered unlucky!” The shop assistant gloated as he told the storekeeper everything that had happened this afternoon. Finally, he pretended to sigh, “This family is really unlucky. It’s not good to fight with other people, but to offend our Fourth Young Master. That’s a person that even the master and wife can’t control!”
The shopkeeper was infuriated and held in his anger. This was truly like a mortal suffering from a fight between a god and a mortal. Fourth Young Master, what a sin!
