Chapter 69 A Friendly Reminder
brush--
Luo Huai opened his eyes with a bad look.
Step out of bed.
"Hey, wait!"
Wang Qin looked up and signaled him not to move, but he was forced to retreat again and again.
Finally, the two stood face to face.
The stalemate continues.
"Hey, little brother Luo, why are you so stubborn?"
Wang Qin couldn't help but sigh. He didn't want to have a real fight. If there was another fight, he wouldn't be able to buy the herbs.
Forget it, I, a sir, will not bear grudges against villains.
He stood still, his eyes closed: "If you are still angry, just hit me. I will definitely not fight back."
As he said this, he clenched his fists and his eyelashes trembled slightly.
Wang Qin thought, since he has expressed his opinion so far, I should just let it go.
For a long while, there was no sound.
He couldn't help but open his eyes a crack, and saw a fist rushing towards him.
“Ah…” A painful howl came from inside the house, “You really hit me!”
Outside the house, Zhu Mingqing raised the corners of his mouth slightly. He no longer paid attention to the two of them and went straight back to the room to wait for Wang Qin to come back.
An incense stick later, Wang Qin walked in with a sad and angry expression, covering his swollen face.
He was really pissed off.
I have never suffered such injustice in my life.
He made great sacrifices for his father's promotion.
Zhu Mingqing burst out laughing when he saw his grimacing look.
Wang Qin's cheeks puffed up with anger. "You're still laughing? This was all caused by your son."
Zhu Mingqing shrugged: "Then who made the first move?"
Wang Qin was so angry that his temples bulged.
Fearing that he would upset her again, Zhu Mingqing said quickly:
"Okay, let's get back to business. From now on, the feud between us ends here, and your father won't know about this either."
Hearing this, Wang Qin was slightly satisfied and smiled.
However, when his red and swollen cheeks were involved, he couldn't help but grimace: "Mrs. Zhu, do you have any medicine for the wound? Can you give me some first? I really can't bear it anymore."
Seeing this, Zhu Mingqing took out the medicine he had taken from the palace from the space and handed it over.
As soon as the ointment was applied, a cool feeling suddenly appeared on the burning face.
"Hey, you know what, this ointment is really useful." Wang Qin took the bottle and was about to look at it carefully, but Zhu Mingqing took it back.
The bottle is made of jade, and most people may not be able to see its specialness.
But just in case, don't show it to anyone.
"Stingy." Wang Qin couldn't help rolling his eyes. He was even more stingy than him.
Zhu Mingqing ignored him and continued talking about the previous topic: "I can give you two-thirds of the herbs. Is that enough?"
Hearing this, Wang Qin immediately laughed and nodded quickly: "Enough, enough."
Looking at his bruised face, it seemed a little funny no matter how I looked at it.
Zhu Mingqing lowered his head slightly, picked up the teacup and drank water, a deep smile flashed in his lowered eyes.
Thinking of something, Wang Qin hesitated, but decided to give a reminder.
"By the way, there is something Madam could pay attention to."
The reason why he wanted to forcibly purchase the medicinal herbs was because he heard that someone in the capital was purchasing them on a large scale, and not only medicinal herbs, but even food was being hoarded at high prices.
Before, he thought the other person was stupid.
What's the point of collecting so many things?
But now it seems that they are the smart ones.
This natural disaster is rare in a century. I'm afraid those people must have made a lot of money.
Although Mrs. Zhu’s stuff may not be as much as what leaks out from other people’s fingers, it is better to keep a low profile on the road ahead.
"So, to avoid attracting attention, it's better not to sell it to anyone else."
Upon hearing this, Zhu Mingqing's expression paused, and he suddenly remembered something that happened not long ago.
At that time, she had just arrived in Zhencheng, and the shopkeeper Zhou who sold medicinal herbs said that those herbs were to be purchased by the Feng family in the capital.
So she asked, "Is it the Feng family?"
Wang Qin's expression changed slightly, and he lowered his voice: "How did Madam Zhu know?"
Zhu Mingqing did not answer and did not want to talk about this topic anymore.
She stood up and thanked him: "Thank you, Prince Wang, for telling me this news. I will pay attention to it."
At the same time, he picked up a gray sack next to him and put it on the table.
"This is a parting gift."
They will be leaving Zhencheng tomorrow, and they may never meet again.
Since the other party told her such important news, she gave him something he liked in return.
Wang Qin was puzzled: "What is this?"
Slowly untying the rope, he revealed round objects wrapped in mud inside.
Wang Qin couldn't help but frown in disgust.
Zhu Mingqing took out a cracked preserved egg, peeled off the shell, and revealed the crystal clear black preserved egg inside.
Wang Qin's eyes lit up immediately, and he picked up one and started eating it.
When Wang Qin returned home with a sack of preserved eggs, County Magistrate Wang thought he had failed again.
I wanted to just go up to him and give him a smack on the head.
But when he saw the wound on his face, his face darkened: "What happened?"
Wang Qin quickly covered his face, put the sack on the ground, and said quickly, "I bought the herbs, they will be here soon. And these are the preserved eggs that Madam Zhu sent. Don't forget to ask the kitchen to make porridge for me tonight. I'm tired, I'm going back to my room to rest."
Having said that, he disappeared in a flash.
County Magistrate Wang frowned.
Running too fast!
This kid must be hiding something from him.
On the other side, Luo Huai, who had fought with Wang Qin, didn't look much better.
Luo Xiao applied medicine to him while he kept preaching: "Second brother, why are you so stupid? If you can't beat him, just call me. Together, we can definitely beat him to a pulp."
Luo Huai was also in great pain, grimacing and asking him to be gentler.
"alright."
Luo Xiao put down the ointment, put a bandage on him and was about to leave.
"etc."
Luo Huai stopped him and asked incoherently, "Wen Baolu, what have you been doing with him these past two days?"
Luo Xiao paused, a look of embarrassment appearing on his face as he turned his back to his second brother.
He promised his mother not to tell anyone.
"Second brother, I..."
Seeing that he was still silent, Luo Huai frowned slightly, "Is it related to my mother?"
Otherwise, he really couldn't think of anything else that could make his third brother so troubled.
"Oh, second brother, please don't embarrass me." Luo Xiao turned around and sighed: "But I'm afraid Brother Wen and the others will have to accompany us for a while."
"kindness?"
"They are going to Jizhou to look for their relatives, so they want to go with us, which will be safer."
…
On the day Zhu Mingqing and others left Zhencheng, the ancient city gate was full of people, and the people of the whole city came to line the streets to see them off.
If you don’t know, you might think it’s a farewell to some high-ranking official of the imperial court!
Mrs. Wang was deeply moved and said, "Mrs. Zhu's ability is beyond my reach."
County Magistrate Wang felt both bittersweet and envious.
"This day will come to me sooner or later."
It was originally a joke, but he didn't know that it would become a reality soon.
When this scene reappeared, Liang He and others could not hide their excitement.
It is probably rare to see prisoners escorted to this extent.
Especially Prince Luo, his evaluation of Zhu Mingqing was refreshed again.
"Mrs. Zhu, we will all miss you."
"Wishing you a safe journey, Madam!"
Looking at this group of lovely people shouting loudly, Zhu Mingqing's heart was in turmoil, as if a small stone was thrown into the calm lake of his heart, causing ripples.
She smiled and waved vigorously: "See you again if we're lucky!"
