Jiang Miao was severely punished by Shen Yanqing. If he hadn't been worried about Shi Lei being outside, he wouldn't have let her go so easily.
"No matter what your status is, you are my wife and no one can take her away."
Shen Yanqing may seem as gentle as jade, but his inner possessiveness is stronger than anyone else. He will only hold the person he believes in tightly in his hands and never let go.
"good."
Jiang Miao's body and heart turned into a ball of water. She believed in Shen Yanqing's character and would not break his promise as long as he said it. Moreover, her identity was just a guess. Overthinking would only increase her worries.
Zhenjiang Prefecture
Qiao Songyun woke up from her sleep. Smoke was already rising from Mrs. Yuan's small yard. She got up to cook just after the fifth watch. Mrs. Yuan raised a few chickens. After cooking, the sound of chicken feeding came from the yard.
"Xiao Qiao woke up. The porridge is hot in the pot, and I left an egg for you. You quickly eat it while it's hot. Although the injury is almost healed, you have to take care of it later, otherwise it will become the root of the disease. When you get older, you will know how uncomfortable it is..."
Mrs. Yuan's chatter added life to the small courtyard. Qiao Songyun pursed her lips. He still had the look of innocence on his face that he had just woken up from. A bunch of pressed hair on his head was sticking up. He looked dazed and stunned. There is no usual indifference and gloominess.
He was used to being alone. These days he lived at Mrs. Yuan's house and was taken care of by her. Qiao Songyun gradually got used to her nagging.
"Okay, thank you, ma'am."
"It's just a meal. I don't deserve to thank you in front of you. You are worthy of being a scholar. You are polite in everything you do and say."
Qiao Songyun was brought home by her that day. Mother Yuan was afraid that he would be carrying a debt of revenge. Now she was the only old woman alive in the Yuan family. Mother Yuan didn't want to die, so when he woke up, she interrogated his identity carefully.
Qiao Songyun did not tell her the truth for fear of getting into trouble. He only said that he was a scholar rushing to take the exam and encountered bandits. He had some medical skills and was not stabbed in the vital part by the bandits.
Grandma Yuan saw that he was handsome and spoke in an orderly manner, so she believed his words in her heart. She took pity on him and felt sorry for him so she stayed at Yuan's house to recuperate.
It’s just that the Yuan family is not rich either. In addition to chopping firewood, she usually goes to the mountains with the women in the city to pick flowers and herbs. All her savings in the past six months have been spent on Qiao Songyun’s medical treatment and medicine. Even Qiao Songyun has a cold heart. Thank you for her life-saving grace.
He drank the sticky rice soup, finished the eggs in two mouthfuls, looked at the old woman in the yard, and made a decision in his heart. He originally planned to wait until he recovered from his injuries and continue to go south, but Mrs. Yuan spent all her wealth to save him, and he was grateful for this kindness. I have to repay it, at least I have to pay back the money for medical treatment.
But he has no other skills but medical skills. If he wants to make money, he has to go to see doctors and save people.
…
Jiang Miao and Shen Yanqing went to the capital. Wu Yue didn't have to wait by her side, so she had some free time. She stayed in the food street every day these days, eating from the street to the end of the street. She had such an appetite that even Li Biao sighed. Not as good as.
"Ms. Wu is worthy of being a martial arts practitioner. It's just that our skills can't match her. Now she even has to give in to her appetite!"
Recalling that they had overestimated their abilities and wanted to compete with her and be beaten violently, they all walked away when they saw her, and they were not so bold even in front of Jiang Miao.
Wu Yue dismissed the words of Li Biao and others. How much she had eaten just now. If she were still in the secret guard camp and exercised so much every day, her appetite would have doubled.
Wu Yue was a little nostalgic for the past days, and she ate two more skewers. The spicy and fragrant meat skewers entered her mouth. They were so beautiful that she forgot about everything. How could she have eaten so many delicious foods if she was still in the secret guard camp.
"Let's go!"
Wu Yue finished the last skewer of barbecue in her hand and walked to the back street with two braised chickens. Although Jiang Miao was not in the capital, she still had a task left for her. Shen Yanqing's secret guard battalion required her to keep an eye on her on weekdays. If you have any needs, you can learn about them in time, and the progress of the training will not be delayed.
"What kind of kid dares to compete with our Doctor Qi for business? I think you don't want to hang out in Zhenjiang Mansion anymore!"
Qiao Songyun had just finished consulting the customer when the stall in front of him was opened up. The person who came was a powerful and sturdy man with muscular tendons on his body that looked intimidating.
He glared at Qiao Songyun, holding his collar with his big palms like cattail leaf fans. The two of them were so close that Qiao Songyun could still smell the smell of sweat on his body. He was very clean by nature, so he couldn't help but frown in disgust. , thin lips slightly opened, and cold words came out.
"roll!"
"Damn, I wonder if you are looking for death. If you dare to argue with your grandfather, you should be wise and hand over all the money you earned, and then take your rags with you!"
The big man pushed Qiao Songyun away. His body was still not fully recovered. He couldn't stand firmly and fell to the ground. He looked quite embarrassed, which made the big man and others laugh.
"Tsk! You are like a weak chicken. Grandpa can knock you down with just one finger..."
Qiao Songyun sat on the ground, his hair falling down from his forehead, covering his gloomy eyes, his fists clenched beside him, red marks on his palms from his nails, a surge of anger and strong humiliation welling up from the bottom of his heart.
"I won't leave. This place belongs to everyone. Even if I set up a stall here, nothing can stop me!"
Qiao Songyun is withdrawn by nature. In the past, patients came to see him for consultations. He had no experience in dealing with people and had never been bullied by bullies.
But when he came to Zhenjiang Prefecture, he had to go out to set up a stall and seek medical treatment. His business was robbed by others, and now he had to be robbed of his money by bullies. Qiao Songyun's eyes were red with anger, and he wanted to kill all the people in front of him.
But he didn't know people's bad nature, and the way he tried to resist but couldn't make these people want to bully him even more.
"Why, boy, you are not convinced. Get up and have a fight with grandpa. If you beat me, I will spare you this time. If you can't beat me... Tsk, tsk, I see that your little body can't be put to a lot of trouble. If you are injured, you will be injured." Don’t blame grandpa for being cruel, hahaha!”
Qiao Songyun listened to the dirty words in the man's mouth and laughed angrily. He retracted his fingers into his sleeves and touched a sachet. A look of sternness flashed in his eyes. Since some people didn't want their lives, there was no need for him to be merciful.
"Are you scared if you don't speak? If you hand over the money now and kneel down and call me grandpa twice, maybe I can let you go because of my kindness..."
Before the man realized the danger, his words became more and more arrogant. The boys next to him laughed arrogantly, completely unaware that they were adding fuel to the fire.
"Okay, lean over."
Qiao Songyun smiled innocently. He was handsome, fair-skinned and innocent. He pretended to be well-behaved and deceived the strong man. He actually leaned down obediently.
"Why, I figured it out and asked Grandpa for mercy!"
Qiao Songyun curled his lips and smiled sarcastically, and was about to spill the poison in his hand, but before he could make a move, the strong man was hit hard on the head.
