Peasant Princess and Hen-pecked Prince - C216
Wanqing looked at the shopkeeper, and said with an ice-cold expression, “Let me take your bow, your restaurant is so inhumane, this lady will not stay here any longer.”
Wanqing lived in the most expensive room in the restaurant, which only cost five taels of silver per day, and previously, Wanqing had clearly indicated that she would stay here for a long time, so the owner of this restaurant had always thought that he would earn quite a bit of silver from Wanqing, who would have thought that he would not be able to pay the bill today? If that was true, then wouldn’t he earn less? Although this wasn’t a big deal and there were quite a lot of people coming and going every day, which wasn’t strictly speaking, the shopkeeper just didn’t know why this good customer would say he didn’t want to stay any longer after going out for a round.
“Miss, if you’re leaving now, you must have a reason, right?”
Reason? This shopkeeper actually wanted a reason? It is simply the biggest joke in the world. “Wanqing looked at the shopkeeper with an ice-cold face and said coldly,” Could it be that the shopkeeper’s ears are bad, or what? Didn’t I just say it? This is a restaurant that has no humanity, why do you want me to repeat this so many times to you? ”
It was not that the shopkeeper did not hear Wanqing’s words just now, but he felt that he had heard wrongly. How was this possible? How did his restaurant turn into an inhumane restaurant?
After all, he had already closed the door just now. He naturally didn’t see what happened outside, so hearing Wanqing’s words, he felt a little surprised. The atmosphere was unbearable.
“I say, you’re a good little girl. If you don’t act like a good human being, you’ll be imitating his words. How come a good restaurant like mine is devoid of humanity?”
Wanqing was too lazy to bicker with the shopkeeper, she turned and headed towards the room she used to live in.
Actually, if the young lady from before was in a difficult situation, Wanqing did not think too much about it. After all, in this kind of dangerous situation, people would always think of protecting themselves first.
This person was simply too selfish. At this moment, Wanqing had a thought, that was to open a restaurant that was even better than this restaurant, and take away all his business, Wanqing wanted to see if she could continue doing business for a long time.
Wanqing was used to all sorts of tricks in the business world, so using business to crush him was the most normal way.
However, he didn’t want to waste any time on him right now. After getting what he wanted, he turned around and left.
Because the room fees were all pre-paid, she only paid for one day’s rent when she woke up late yesterday. Coincidentally, she had to pay for the next day’s rent, but right now, Wanqing had left before she had to pay for the room fees.
After all, he couldn’t force others to stay. He could only watch as Wanqing left with eyes full of hatred.
The young lady at the gate and her mother did not leave. As if they had predicted that Wanqing would come out, they continued to guard the door.
Seeing Wanqing coming out, the mother and son duo hurriedly went forward to greet him.
If it weren’t for you, I’m afraid that my mother’s money would not have been taken back. My name is Jiang Yan, if you have anything you need help with in the future, Jiang Yan would definitely not be able to help.
Wanqing looked at Jiang Yan and her daughter, and without saying anything, she immediately headed towards the front.
Jiang Yan had originally thought that she would receive a response, but she didn’t expect that her savior would actually turn around and leave, and didn’t even say a single word to him.
Mother Jiang looked in the direction Wanqing left and then looked at her daughter. She dragged her daughter along as she left the place.
Wanqing could feel that they were following him, hence she stopped in front of a small alleyway, turned around, and looked at the mother and daughter who had followed him.
“Why are you two following me?” Now that the silver has been retrieved, why aren’t you rushing to the hospital?
Jiang Yan, did you not realize that your mother is currently terminally ill? ”
The mother and daughter pair were also famous families in the martial arts world, but because their mother was severely ill, their family did not want her mother’s sickness to affect their family, so they transferred 100 taels of silver from home to them to go to the hospital.
Everyone said that there were many people in the capital, Jiang Yan thought, there must be a lot of doctors here, but she never expected that she would not even encounter a good doctor along the way.
It wasn’t because she hadn’t met a doctor who was better, but because there wasn’t a single doctor who could cure her mother’s current illness.
His mother also knew that he wouldn’t be able to hold on for that long and that he might not be able to recover from his illness. Therefore, she decided to find a place to end her daughter’s life and not drag him down.
After the mother and daughter hugged each other and cried, Jiang Yan decided to fulfill his mother’s last wish, which was to let his mother live in the best place, eat the most delicious food, and enjoy the most blissful scene of her life.
However, he did not expect that the moment he entered the restaurant, he would be targeted by the people he had offended in the martial arts world, which was why he saw the scene just now.
That kind of place was impossible for Jiang Yan to return to, and just now, when Mother Jiang saw Wanqing standing up for them, she thought that Wanqing must be a warm-hearted girl with strong martial arts, that he was not a mortal.
If his own daughter could stay by his side, then even if she died immediately, she would have no regrets.
Seeing Wanqing leave, Mother Jiang pulled her daughter and followed behind him.
Wanqing was a smart person, she could probably guess what the mother and daughter pair were thinking. However, she didn’t want to be burdened by so many things when she entered the capital alone, so if she kept Jiang Yan by her side, who knew what would happen?
Even though she wasn’t someone who was afraid of trouble, she wasn’t someone who wanted to cause trouble. Helping her this time was fate, she couldn’t help him for the rest of her life.
“I know what you want from me, but I have my own things to do when I enter the capital, and I’m not a person with a clean background.”
Wanqing had her own important things to do in the first place, not only was it important for him to expand her business to the capital, more importantly, investigate the relationship between him and the Prince Li Palace.
Although Wanqing didn’t want to care about these things in the depths of her heart, since she was already here and had given up on this body, then no matter if it was for the Steppes Master or for her own father, there were some things that needed to be investigated thoroughly.
Investigating these things required him to pay a price, so Wanqing did not want anyone by her side to risk their lives.
Jiang Yan could tell that Wanqing really didn’t want him to stay by her side, but just now, Wanqing had stood up for his mother and daughter, and had saved their lives. As the saying went, a life saving grace greater than the heavens was something that they had no choice but to repay.
Glancing at her own mother and getting a definite answer from her eyes, Jiang Yan lightly nodded her head. Then, turning around, she looked at Wanqing with an extremely serious gaze, and directly kneeled on the ground.
“I am unable to repay Miss’s great kindness towards me and my son, and Miss can also see that my mother’s end is near. If I cannot find the Godly Doctor, I simply cannot be treated, so Mother’s meaning is that after my mother has left, I should be able to follow by her side and repay Miss’s kindness.”
Although Jiang Yan was still in the martial arts world, her martial arts was not very strong. After all, her family would not hand over martial arts to his daughter, who was born from a concubine, so if they were to go together, it was very possible that they would take away the life of the mother and daughter. She knew herself well and knew her limits, so she wanted her mother to leave her unharmed in the future.
Hearing Jiang Yan’s words, Wanqing frowned.
“Are you that sure that your mother is hopeless?”
When Jiang Yan heard this, she heard another meaning from within, which was to look at Wanqing with hope.
“Does lady know the genius doctor’s Xia Luo? If Miss knows the whereabouts of the genius doctor, please tell me, if you can save my mother’s life, let alone in the next life, in the next life, even if Jiang Yan can do whatever it takes for her to live. ”
She had never thought that this girl would be so deeply filial to her mother. It would be a lie to say that she wasn’t moved.
However, she didn’t know whether or not that person was in the capital. The left side was just a matter of words, and if she could save someone’s life, then it would be more virtuous of her.
“Bring your mother to the Misty Rain Pavilion. Tell her that Lan Jun asked you to find their master to help you save your mother.”
After Wanqing finished speaking, she turned and quickly left. She still wanted to buy a good piece of jade, and find a skilled craftsman to help make her mask. If she wanted to use her identity as Lan Jun to do things in the capital, then this mask would be absolutely necessary.
Jiang Yan never thought that Wanqing would actually say that Misty Rain Pavilion. She knew that place was a place that sold high quality clothes and high quality white spirits, but she had never heard of any kind of genius doctor there.
However, there weren’t even any good doctors. Who knows, maybe the Godly Doctor was really in that place. It wouldn’t be difficult to walk around, and if he could find the Godly Doctor, wouldn’t that make everyone happy?
Jiang Yan had already made her decision in her heart. If Wanqing could really guide her to find that genius doctor, then even if she had to make him suffer, she would definitely chase after him. After all, saving her mother’s life was the same as saving her life;
Wanqing did not leave, but turned a corner in the street and looked in the direction of Jiang Yan and his mother. Seeing that Jiang Yan had indeed brought his mother and walked towards the Misty Rain Pavilion, he nodded slightly.
“This girl is truly filial. If she can really help me by my side, it would be a great help. But now is not the time.”
Wanqing turned around to find a place to sell jade stones, to see if she could buy a piece of the jade that she liked, and in various places in the capital, it was slightly quiet, as if the bustling words of the rumors just now had never happened. Even the Princess of North Di Kingdom, Liang Yuxin and Liang Yuxin had all quieted down.
In the middle of the Anyi Village that was still restless, an old man brought his entire family as he fled towards them. From the looks of it, it was as if he hadn’t eaten for a few days and nights, and the entire family was practically skin and bones.
The expressions on their faces were even more dispirited. As they walked, they seemed to tremble, as if a gust of wind could blow all of them away.
Although the faces of these people were ugly, almost all of them were as skinny as firewood, walking with shaky steps, but a few of them had very lively eyes, and did not seem like they were here to escape.
However, these people were like this. Most of the people in the village were simple and honest. How could they possibly notice? Even Zhao Dasong of the courtyard was surprised when he heard someone knocking on the door to take a look. He quickly welcomed the person to the door and asked.
“You are a big family! Why are you people here? What is going on with you all? From the looks of it, you haven’t eaten for days? What is it? “
