Chapter 213 Where are you going so late?
Chapter 213 Where are you going so late?
The middle-aged man hesitated. One of the men carrying the stretcher said, "Listen to the young girl, brother. Auntie can't take any more strain."
They arrived in town early in the morning, and the journey down the mountain was already quite bumpy, let alone riding in an oxcart, which would have been even more bumpy than being carried by them.
If this continues, the elderly person definitely won't be able to take it.
After hearing his words, the middle-aged man thanked Wen Luozhi, and the group carried the old man straight to the nearest clinic.
Before leaving, Wen Luozhi said that if she went to the yamen, she should find Zou Ersheng, but it would cost her some money.
The middle-aged man understood this principle. Thinking of Qian San'er's extremely arrogant appearance, he made up his mind that even if he spent all his money, he would still seek justice for his mother.
Wen Luozhi thought for a moment and went to Jun'an Hall again. Jun Qianzi was making pills and stopped when he saw her.
"Luo Zhi, what brings you here? I was just about to deliver a letter to you this afternoon."
His tone was somewhat helpless. Although there were only two letters from A-Yue, the two thick stacks of letters made his eyes hurt just looking at them.
Wen Luozhi smiled slightly, "I've been so busy with the restaurant's opening these past two days that I completely forgot about it."
"However, there's something else I need your help with."
The two sat down and talked over tea. Before leaving, Wen Luozhi clasped his hands in a fist salute and said with a smile, "I'll have to trouble you with this matter, Doctor Jun. After it's done, you can eat at my Baiweizhai restaurant for free for life."
Jun Qianzi was amused by her and took out a box containing a letter that Helian Yue had sent back by fast horse.
Wen Luozhi took it and held it protectively in her arms, which made Jun Qianzi smile again.
I'm so happy for A-Yue.
It just so happens that the magistrate's wife had promised him one thing if he cured Guo Wencai: what did he need to do? Now it just so happens that she can come in handy.
That Qian San'er is indeed annoying, like a fly. It wouldn't hurt to teach him a lesson so he'd remember it.
The last lively moment of the half-day was in the afternoon, and there weren't many people left in the restaurant. Wen Luozhi took a ladder and went up to the roof to watch the excitement.
Finding it hard to see clearly, she took out a pair of binoculars from the system and clicked her tongue as she looked.
It seems Zou Ersheng is reliable after taking the money; he came to arrest people so quickly.
Qian San'er was arrested, and he was still saying something that was too far away for her to hear.
The arrogant guy looked terrified as Zou Ersheng held a knife to his neck.
Ah Da and Ah Er followed behind, their heads bowed so their faces couldn't be seen.
The onlookers dispersed, and Wen Luozhi stood up, dusted off her skirt, and went downstairs.
Because everyone had been busy for three consecutive days, their backs and waists were all sore, so the restaurant was closed much earlier today than it had been the previous two mornings.
Wen Luozhi and her family packed their things and returned to the village. When the carriage passed by Banrixian's door, she saw Qian San'er sitting on the stone steps at the door with a frustrated look on his face.
I heard that Qian San'er ended up losing money, and when the worker came back, he fired him without paying him his wages.
As for Ah Da and Ah Er, they came back, packed their things, and left without looking back.
Now that Banrixian doesn't have a pastry chef, and it's not easy to find one in the short term, it seems they might not be open for the next few days.
"Hmph! Serves him right! Who told him to call me a dog?" Wen Luozhi finished speaking and Lang Batian proudly raised his chin.
See? See? Those who called him a dog are getting what they deserve, aren't they?
It glanced furtively at Wen Zi'an; this guy had said it was a dog this morning!
Wen Zi'an sat down next to it and slapped it. "What are you looking at me for? I don't have any roast goose on my face!"
This big fat dog stole and ate all the goose legs his sister left for him at noon today! It's infuriating!
They ate everything without leaving a trace!
Qian San'er knew their carriage so well that he felt powerless when he heard the barking of the dogs and their laughter inside.
I don't know what happened today. He had already bribed the people at the yamen a long time ago, so how could he let them in?
When they met the county magistrate, everyone was stunned. The man looked so poor, how could the county magistrate have to come forward?
This man is extremely greedy; whenever there's trouble at the shop, you have to stuff a lot of silver into his hands to resolve it.
Could it be that this person has changed his ways and is truly going to do things for the people?
No, no, no! He shook his head to himself. It must be that the county magistrate is happy because his only son just got married!
Inside the Guo residence, Guo Youcai sat solemnly in a chair, while Guo Wencai knelt on the ground, barely daring to breathe.
"You! You're always making me owe you favors!"
Guo Youcai took off his hat, angrily placed it on the table, and looked at his chubby son with a hundred dissatisfactions.
He was hoping to get some money from the shopkeeper who was only available for half a day! But when his wife sent someone over, they said there was nothing left.
Guo Wencai dared not speak and knelt there, letting his father scold him. The county magistrate's wife, feeling sorry for her son, pleaded for him:
"Master, Wencai has already realized his mistake, so he hasn't gone out, has he?"
"With Ah Miao around, no one dares to act like they used to."
Guo Wencai nodded repeatedly, "Yes, Father, I will listen to you and Mother from now on and never do anything reckless again. I have A-Miao watching over me."
Guo Youcai's expression softened a bit when he heard about his daughter-in-law, who had only recently entered the family. He stood up, dusted off his clothes, and said, "You'd better listen to A Miao, or I won't let you off the hook!"
He glanced at his only son, who had never been so obedient, and softened his tone considerably, "Get up."
Guo Wencai got up from the ground and went over to make him sit down. She patted his back and massaged his shoulders, and soon he was calmed down.
After he finally left, Guo Wencai, the county magistrate, grabbed the county magistrate's wife and cried, "Mother! I want to go out and play!"
"I don't want to stay at home all the time! I want to go to Chunxiang Garden right now..."
He spoke the words "Chunxiang Garden" softly, but Wang Amiao, who was still outside and hadn't heard him clearly, asked loudly, "Where did my husband say he wanted to go? It's so late now, why don't we go tomorrow?"
Before seeing him, Guo Wencai heard his voice; just hearing that slightly rough voice was enough to frighten him.
This Wang Amiao is not as slim as her name suggests; on the contrary, she is quite fat!
She's not like what others say, a beauty who's more like a man!
His mother insisted that it was called being plump! She said that a large bottom was good for childbearing and could produce a big, fat boy!
It's said that it's a blessing for a woman to be born with a masculine appearance, but that just makes her a tomboy!
He moved to hide behind the county magistrate's wife, but Wang Amiao, who had just entered, grabbed him and asked with a smile, "Where did you say you were going, husband?"
Guo Wencai swallowed hard and stammered, "I didn't say that, my wife, it's so late..."
"Where can I go this late... haha... right, Mom?"
Seeing that Wang Amiao seemed somewhat disbelieving, the county magistrate's wife quickly chimed in, "Yes, Amiao, you must have misheard."
"Mother has been here the whole time and hasn't heard Wencai say anything about going anywhere."
She turned her face away, not daring to look Wang Amiao in the eye. When the master found out that her son had been seeing male prostitutes, he was furious.
Later, they found Dr. Jun of Jun'an Hall, who spent a lot of money to buy the best medicinal materials to make medicine and cured the disease.
From then on, her child's father had been looking for a daughter-in-law, and finally found this distant cousin's niece.
After they moved in together, her son couldn't even get close to the front door, let alone go out for romantic escapades.
