Chapter 156 Someone Fell into the River
"I said, I don't need you to thank me. This matter has passed. If you continue to pester me, I don't mind asking someone to go to Miss Yan to get the silver back and send you over as well."
When Bai Xiaorui heard Yu Banxia say this, her face turned pale instantly.
The waiter was standing aside and heard Yu Banxia say this. He felt that the young man in front of him was speaking too coldly.
But we will not blame the guests, as that would be extremely rude.
Bai Xiaorui didn't expect this handsome young man to say that. Her face turned pale with fright. She secretly went to see Ge Lang, but saw Ge Lang standing aside, not saying a word.
She was so angry that her mouth trembled. Before she could speak, Yu Banxia spoke again: "It's understandable that people strive for higher goals, but sometimes a simple life is a blessing."
"Cherish the present moment. There is a good marriage opportunity right before your eyes. It all depends on whether you can grasp it."
"Now, leave. I'm going to eat." Yu Banxia's words were so dismissive that Bai Xiaorui had no place to vent her anger even if she was angry.
She could only swallow her anger, stood up in shame and ran to the backyard.
The shopkeeper shook his head. He had heard everything that had just happened. Seeing that Ge Lang was still foolishly chasing after him, he couldn't help but sigh again.
Never mind. I'll just spend money to teach him how unpredictable human minds are.
After dinner, Yu Banxia did not go back to the house to rest. Instead, she felt like going out for a walk.
"I'll go out for a walk with the girl. Xingyu, you and Feiying stay in the inn and rest." Liuli instructed Xingyu and the others.
The two nodded, and Liuli followed Yu Banxia. The two walked along the street and bought some snacks.
Yu Banxia was feeling uneasy tonight, as if some force was pulling her towards the moat.
The moat runs through the city, and from time to time you can see one or two small boats passing by.
"Girl, where are you going?" Liuli asked curiously. There was no candlelight in front and it was pitch black.
Yu Banxia shook her head: "I don't really know, but it seems like there is a force guiding me in that direction. Let's go over there and take a look."
"Okay." Liuli nodded.
There is an arch bridge not far away, and there seems to be a person standing on the bridge.
Then the man fell towards the river. Liuli pointed over there and said, "Girl, someone fell into the river."
Yu Banxia also hurried forward. The figure fell into the river and struggled twice at the beginning, and then there was no sound.
What's going on?
Yu Banxia ran forward quickly, and Xiaobai transmitted his voice: "Master, there is something interesting in the water, a water ghost that is nearly 20 years old, and a vicious fish that has just begun to awaken its intelligence."
"Use your wood-related ability quickly, and I will shield the surroundings for you." Xiaobai urged.
Yu Banxia nodded quickly and followed the direction indicated by Xiaobai. The vitality grass grew instantly and turned into flexible vines, and quickly found the person who fell into the river.
She exerted a little force, controlled her wood ability and pulled the man ashore. At the same time, a two-meter-long black fish also came ashore.
It seems that this is the intelligent monster that is harming people.
Yu Banxia put the black fish directly into the space and asked Xiaobai to take care of it, and then hurried forward.
The person who fell into the river was actually a woman. Her eyes were closed and her breathing was weak.
Yu Banxia hurried forward and first pressed her abdomen to make her spit out the river water she had drunk.
Then I took her pulse and found she was very weak.
She could only perform CPR. As soon as she put her hand on the wound, a sharp female voice exploded in her ear: "You lecher, what do you want to do to my girl!"
Liuli grabbed the maid who was about to rush forward, and the maid struggled: "Let me go, let me go, I'm going to report you to the authorities, you flower-stealing thief."
"Such a lot of noise, can't you see that my girl is trying to save your girl?"
"Since you are so protective of your master, where did you go just now? Your daughter fell off the bridge into the river. If it wasn't for my daughter, your daughter would have drowned and no one would have known."
Liuli was so angry that she pushed her away and yelled angrily.
Then she saw a figure flash by on the other side of the bridge. Was there someone else?
Liuli wanted to go and take a look, but was afraid that the little girl might not be able to figure it out and would disturb the girl from saving people.
After a long while, the girl coughed and spat out the last mouthful of water.
“Jade, Jade…” the woman called weakly.
The little girl rushed over and said, "Girl, are you okay? How did you fall into the moat?"
"I don't know. I was standing on the bridge waiting for you. I looked down and saw a woman waving at me in the water. I wanted to see more clearly, but I fell in."
The girl looked to be no more than seventeen years old, and at this moment, she was also frightened.
When the little girl heard this, she knew that she had wronged someone. She quickly apologized to Yu Banxia and his servant, "Sir, it was Feicui who was disrespectful just now. It's just that my daughter is a woman, and you are a man..."
"Don't worry, I'm not only a doctor, but also a woman. It's just that it's more convenient for me to dress as a man when I travel." Yu Banxia immediately returned to her female voice.
When the little girl heard this, she burst into tears of joy. It was great! It was a girl and the girl's reputation was not damaged.
"Thank you for saving my life, young lady. My surname is Yu, my name is Danyan, and I am the second daughter of the Yu family in Fenggu County." After being helped up by Feicui, Yu Danyan bowed to Yu Banxia.
Jade wrapped her in the cloak she had just taken, fearing that she would catch a cold.
Yu Banxia raised her eyebrows and said with a smile: "Isn't this a coincidence? We are from the same family, and it is just a coincidence. It is all fate."
"My name is Yu Banxia, and I'm from Yunshan Town, Anping County." Yu Banxia smiled at her.
Yu Danyan was also very surprised, and then said: "My father married into the family, and I heard from my mother that my grandfather was also from Yunshan Town, Anping Town."
"We, we are not related, right?" Yu Danyan said in surprise.
Yu Banxia was also stunned: "It can't be such a coincidence, right?"
"Well, where do you live? Can you come to my house tomorrow? I have a family tree at home and you will know it at a glance." Yu Danyan suggested.
Yu Banxia thought about it and finally nodded: "Okay, let's do as you said. We will stay in Jufu Inn for the time being."
"Okay, then it's settled." Yu Danyan emphasized again, fearing that Yu Banxia would not go.
"Go back and change your clothes quickly. It's cold." To comfort her, Yu Banxia added, "Don't worry. Since I promised you, I won't break my promise."
"Okay, then I'll go back first. I'll ask Feicui to bring someone to pick you up tomorrow." Yu Danyan nodded and walked towards her mule cart.
As soon as she left Yu Banxia, she couldn't help shivering. When she stood next to the little girl just now, she didn't feel cold at all.
"A-choo, A-choo..." Yu Danyan sneezed several times in a row.
Yu Banxia heard it, and when the others walked away, Liuli looked towards the other side of the bridge: "Girl, there was a dark shadow that just flashed by on the other side of the bridge. I feel like there's something fishy going on."
