One day, a man who seemed to be from ...
"Grandpa made grandma angry, so he's on his own!"
"Grandma, Grandpa is so bold that he actually dares to despise the beautiful and charming grandma. You must not let him into the room tonight."
Yang Youxue and others started to fan the flames, asking grandma to deal with grandpa.
In the end, Huang Lijuan moved to Yang Qingyao's room to sleep, Bai Jian went to sleep in the guest room, and Yang Zhongyi stayed alone in the empty room. Lu Guihua sent Old Man Yang to the guest room to accompany Bai Jian.
Seeing that there was no show to watch, Yang Youxue ate breakfast and followed Yang Qingman, Liu Qingpei and Yang Qingyou to Anren County to inspect the business.
Life goes on in an orderly manner.
Bai Chen left Taohua Village and headed south.
Ruyang County.
Bai Chen came to Ruyang County, where the Yang family had business, but he didn't want to contact them.
Bai Chen was having dinner at Zuixianlou when he heard a child crying for help downstairs.
There were a few thugs downstairs beating up two kids about twelve or thirteen years old. It was hard to tell whether they were boys or girls because their hair was disheveled and their faces were unkempt.
Meng Yue desperately tried to protect her brother from being beaten. She was exhausted, and she had to flee from the brothel with her brother. Along the way, they had to fight countless thugs and hooligans to survive.
"I won't allow you to bully my sister!" Meng Long, who was protected under his sister, pushed away his sister who was pressing on him, stood up with difficulty, and looked at them angrily.
"Looking for death! Dare to be mean to us. Come on, brothers, kill this little bastard. Then taste the little girl. Damn it, I beat him for so long but he didn't realize it was a little girl. Otherwise, I would have tasted her long ago." said a wretched hooligan.
"Okay, boss." The remaining gangsters laughed.
"I'm going to kill you!" Meng Long rushed forward with all his strength to fight them. However, due to the huge difference in physical strength and lack of energy due to lack of food, he was soon beaten to the ground by the thugs and could not get up.
"No, please don't hit my brother! Uncles, aunts, fellow villagers, please, save my brother!" When Meng Yue saw her brother being beaten to the ground, she was so angry that she spit out blood and fainted.
None of the people walking on the road dared to step forward to save the brother and sister. They pretended not to see anything and hurried on their way.
The thugs beat Meng Long until he vomited blood and fainted, and then they came to Meng Yue.
"Boss, this girl has fainted? What should we do now?" said a thug.
"It's best if she faints. Brothers, carry this little girl back and we will taste her slowly." said the boss.
"Okay, boss. I must make this little girl beg for mercy on me, hahaha!" said a little gangster.
"Let's see who dares!" Bai Chen flew down from the building, angrily scolding the hooligans. He originally didn't want to meddle in other people's business; he wanted to complete the task assigned by the young lady as soon as possible, return to her side and protect her. But when he saw the little boy's explosive energy and anger in order to protect his sister, he thought he had great potential.
"Who are you? Don't meddle in other people's business. You can't beat us alone." The thug leader was a little frightened when he saw Bai Chen. This person was no ordinary person, and his martial arts must be better than theirs.
"You'll know only after you try it!" Bai Chen said, and without waiting for the other party to speak, he kicked the gangster leader away.
"Brothers, come on, beat him to death. He must have a lot of silver on him." The gangster leader fell to the ground, grimacing in pain in his stomach, and said angrily to his men.
So the gang of thugs rushed up to fight with Bai Chen. In less than a quarter of an hour, they were all knocked to the ground and couldn't get up at all.
At this time, the innkeeper also came out. Bai Chen gave him one tael of silver for the food and wine, and asked him to help send it to the inn and invite the doctor over.
Inside Yuelai Inn.
"Young master, the medicine has been applied to the young master. He will be cured after taking a few doses. It is not convenient for me to apply medicine to the young lady's injury. The medicine is here. Can you ask someone to help apply it? These doses are for the young lady. She will be cured after taking them." The doctor said to Bai Chen.
"Thank you, doctor. Here is the consultation fee!" Bai Chen took out two taels of silver and handed it to the doctor.
"Thank you, sir. I'm leaving now!" The doctor took out two taels of silver and expressed his gratitude. The consultation fee and medicine cost only one tael of silver. The other party actually gave him two taels. How could he not be grateful for such generosity?
Bai Chen didn't know what the doctor was thinking, and he knew he didn't want to care. Although he was a servant, the Yang family never treated him unfairly. He was provided with food and lodging, and his annual salary was two hundred taels, not including the reward from the young lady. He now had five thousand taels, and when he was released, the young lady gave him ten thousand taels as funding, telling him not to save. If he didn't have enough, he could withdraw money from any of the Yang family's businesses.
Bai Chen asked the innkeeper's wife to apply medicine to Meng Yue and asked her to help decoct the medicine.
Meng Yue opened her eyes and saw a handsome young man in white sitting beside the bed. She was lying on the bed with her younger brother lying beside her.
"Was it you who saved me, sir?" Meng Yue asked Bai Chen.
"Yes." Bai Chen said.
"Thank you very much, sir. How is my younger brother?" Meng Yue asked Bai Chen gratefully.
"It's okay now. Take some medicine and rest for a few days, and you'll be fine." Bai Chen said coldly.
"I thank you for saving my life, sir. I have no way to repay you. I am willing to serve you as your slave." Meng Yue looked at the elegant young man, her heart fluttering. He was so handsome that she would be willing to be a maid.
