Reborn into this life before the age of two, my Father vanished on his way to the provincial exam in the capital—alive, he was never found; dead, his body never returned. That very month, Grandfa...
340 Wang Qing Meets Scumbag
Sun Sicheng was also helpless. What his father analyzed to him was not wrong. Saving lives was a good thing, but people nowadays wanted to save lives while also paying attention to the separation between men and women. How could there be so many things that could have the best of both worlds?
Logically, there should be no distinction between men and women in front of the doctor.
"Ping An, the people in the Marquis of Loyalty and Bravery's Mansion are not bad. Isn't his nephew Wang Chufeng still living in your house? Isn't he just a god-relative? You don't have to visit relatives specially at ordinary times, just recognize him."
After thinking about it, he decided to repeat to Ping'an what his father had said to him.
"Master, I was a little impulsive this time, but I don't regret it. You saved both the mother and the child. Saving a life is a great merit. We will still increase our efforts in training female doctors in the future, but we will try not to perform caesarean sections in the short term."
Ping An thought so too.
This caesarean section was performed in the Marquis's Mansion. The Marquis's wife and the prince were both clear-headed and reasonable people. More than 90% of the people in the Great Zhou Dynasty could not accept caesarean sections. Women married early and countless people died in childbirth every year.
How sad.
"Master, I will listen to you, but I will never accept you as my godmother again."
Sun Sicheng smiled bitterly: "No, this is the only one. In two years you will be an adult, and people usually won't recognize another godmother after they become adults."
Ping An thought about it and it was true. In the Great Zhou Dynasty, a man was considered an adult at the age of sixteen, but he truly reached adulthood at the age of twenty.
"I will go to the Marquis' Mansion these days. You can just focus on your work. Let the Marquis' Mansion arrange the matter of recognizing your relatives. If they don't urge me, I will pretend to be ignorant."
"Well, the judges of this arithmetic competition are all very influential people. I want to try and see if I can win the prize."
If I really want to pursue a career in politics in the future, it wouldn't be a bad thing to make friends with these people.
Two days later.
After morning exercise, Xiao Wu told Ping An, "Master, there were two or three people peeking outside our yard last night for about half an hour. They didn't come in, so I didn't make a fuss. Later, Lin Feng and I followed them and found that they actually went to the Jingguo Mansion."
"Okay, I got it. Don't alarm them. You take turns sleeping during the day. Be careful at night. This is not the capital city. Try not to do anything in your own house. If you really have bad intentions, just knock them out and half-death."
"Understood, Master."
Wang Chufeng probably doesn't know about this. The situation is unclear now, so I'll tell him later.
Huo Zhi has been back to his own house these past two days to deal with some things, so this is just fine, there is no need to involve Huo Zhi.
As soon as I arrived at the academy, I saw a notice posted at the gate with the list of ten contestants. Ping An was in the first row and Wang Qing was in the sixth.
Ping An felt a little proud in his heart, but he lost that mood after a while. There was nothing to be proud of. Any junior high school or high school student in his previous life would have gotten top marks, not to mention that he was a top student.
There is no way to compare the arithmetic of the two dynasties.
Wang Chufeng admired Ping An to the extreme. How could a young man be so outstanding?
Such a person is worthy of his lifelong friendship.
"Hey, Ping An, you have a good relationship with that Wang Qing?"
Ping An nodded: "Yes, he and I have been friends for seven or eight years, like brothers."
Wang Chufeng pulled him aside and whispered, "If that's the case, I have to tell you that someone seems to have taken a fancy to your brother."
Ping An frowned: "He got married the year before last."
Wang Chufeng rolled his eyes at him and said, "You are stupid. He is a man. There are many gay men in the Great Zhou Dynasty. Your friend is good-looking, elegant, and comes from an ordinary family. It is not surprising that he is targeted by others."
Ping An's face darkened: "Do you know who the other party is?"
"The Imperial Merchant Mu family is one of the top families in terms of wealth in the Great Zhou Dynasty, and they seem to have strong backers. This person is the eldest son of the Mu family. He is not favored, but I heard that he is very good at doing business."
"I understand, Chu Feng. Don't tell anyone about this. Just pretend you don't know. I will handle it."
Wang Chufeng looked at Ping An and said, "Be careful, try not to leave any marks, and just let me know if you need my help."
That person is a scumbag, he has been wanting to take action against him for a long time. Since Ping An wants to deal with him, he can just send someone to do it secretly.
Recently, his people have noticed that those people from the second house are making moves again, just like a clown, making people laugh and annoying at the same time.
It's becoming more and more fun to be around him.
Ping'an returned to his seat, thinking about this matter. Wang Qing lived alone in his own house with a few servants. The Wang family was just an ordinary wealthy family in the local area, and it could be said that they were not prominent at all in the capital.
Such a person, with no one to rely on and extraordinary talent, naturally attracted the attention of those people.
I can only protect him myself.
Ping An waited at the gate in the afternoon, and after a quarter of an hour, Wang Qing finally showed up.
"I'm safe. Is everything alright? I received some local specialties from home yesterday. I'll have the servant deliver them to you later."
Ping An looked at Wang Qing's smiling face and felt a little upset. Why are there always scumbags who want to ruin such a good person?
A feeling of flattery suddenly arose in his heart.
"Come up quickly, I have something to tell you."
Wang Qing saw that Ping An looked a little unhappy, so he hurriedly got into the carriage. Xiao Wu drove the carriage to a corner and stopped.
"Brother Wang, do you know a man named Mu who is not too old, maybe a little under 30?"
"Mu?" Wang Qing thought for a moment. "There is a businessman named Mu who has approached me several times, saying he wants to do business with my father. I said I don't understand, so that's fine. I'm safe, but what's the matter?"
"Brother Wang, listen to me, you should move to my yard. I just heard today that that person seems to be targeting you. That person is a piece of shit, he only likes to look for handsome men."
Wang Qing felt dizzy and took a deep breath, "Who told you this?"
"Wang Chufeng, I don't know where he got this information from, so he wants you to be careful. The Mu family is an imperial merchant family, and he is the eldest son of the Mu family. The Mu family's business is well-known in the Great Zhou Dynasty."
Wang Qing's eyes turned red. He really thought that this person wanted to do business with his father. But now he thought that his father was just a businessman in a small place. How could he let such a person come to him on his own initiative?
No wonder he always felt that someone was spying on him these days. His personal servant Shuangxi also thought so.
"Ping An, will my visit to your house cause you any trouble?"
"It's OK. The people around me are all good at martial arts. I've even been commended by the Emperor. The Mu family doesn't dare to touch me. Brother Wang, you won't go back today. Let's think of another way. You're in the open and they're in the dark. We can't defend ourselves. We have to find a way to solve this problem once and for all."
Wang Qing nodded: "Okay, I'll tell Shuangxi to send some clean clothes over.
I was careful in everything, but I didn't expect someone would find me anyway. Is it okay to be a bit handsome if you are good-looking? It's better to be sloppy in the future."
"Brother Wang, not all people are bad. Men are relatively tolerated in this world, but you can't expect there to be no scumbags at all. Since we know about this in advance, let's find a way."
"I'm safe. Thank you. It seems like I've always been protected by you, but I've never protected you."
"Life is so long, brother, there's no need to calculate these things between us."
