Chapter 364: Great Kindness
Ning's mother was so angry that she pounded the stool: "How could this be possible! How could the Qian family do this!?
They are too much and too shameless.
So, that's why you sent the caravan to bring us a letter earlier this year, asking us to write to you and ask you to come back to celebrate Grandpa's birthday, right?"
"Yes. They've been forcing me and putting drugs in my food several times.
If I hadn't studied pharmacology before and discovered that the smell of food was wrong, I would probably have become a piece of flattery for the Qian family.
Mother, I don’t want to be their plaything. I would rather cut my hair and become a nun in a temple.”
“How could they do this to you.
My daughter, how much have you suffered over the years? "Mother Ning caressed her daughter's face distressedly.
"This time it's all thanks to Liu Wenyan. If it weren't for her, the consequences for you would be unimaginable..." Thinking of Madam Qian Er's vicious plan, Mother Ning couldn't stop shivering.
"There are rumors out there that she is cold-blooded and ungrateful.
I didn't expect that she would take such a risk to save a stranger.
It seems that all the rumors were spread by word of mouth, and we believed them easily.
We will definitely repay her well someday."
Ning Tan pinched his fingers nervously: "Mom, what are our family going to do about my problem?
I'm afraid my grandfather won't do me justice for the sake of our family's reputation."
Anger flashed in Ning's mother's eyes: "Don't worry, Tan'er, if your grandfather still wants to keep things quiet, then I will divorce your father.
My mother and I went to Jingzhao Prefecture together to sue the Qian family for their disregard for human life.
If Jingzhao Prefecture refuses to accept the case, I will file a complaint with the emperor. I will seek justice for you and free you from that devil's den."
"Mom..." Ning Tan threw himself into his mother's arms and burst into tears again.
The mother and daughter hugged each other and cried bitterly again.
After Wen Yan left, she strolled on the street with her maid.
Passing by a shop.
I saw that there was already a long line in front of the shop door before it opened.
There is a sign hanging above the shop that says "Winter Discount Charcoal".
"Make way, make way. Don't delay me from buying charcoal." Wen Yan was suddenly bumped into by someone.
"Be careful!" The maid hurriedly supported Wen Yan.
Wen Yan stood up and waved her hand: "Don't worry, I'm fine."
The maid reminded him, "Master, we should leave first. When the shop opens soon, it will become even more chaotic here."
Wen Yan asked, "Is this the place where the government sells 'winter charcoal'?"
The maid nodded. "Yes. Because we serve ordinary people here, the charcoal sales here are always mixed and dangerous."
"It's okay, I'll watch for a while." Wen Yan thought about it, then pretended to be here to buy charcoal and joined the queue.
After a while, she heard a lot of gossip from the aunts in line.
turn out to be.
The amount of charcoal you can buy here is limited.
Each person is only provided with three pounds of food per day, and can only buy it once every three days.
If there are more than seven people in an account, either the amount of charcoal will be reduced by one third or the price will be increased by 30%.
If a student comes to Beijing from other places to take the exam, he or she can receive three pounds of charcoal every day with a travel permit and student status.
This way, the possibility of abuse by collecting multiple amounts is avoided.
Little leader Yuan is really good at what he does.
"Everyone, make way. The charcoal handler is here." Following this reminder, everyone took the initiative to separate from both sides.
"Look, Madam Jiang and Miss Ruyue are here again today.
My God, Madam Jiang and Miss Ruyue are so kind. We were all misled by those rumors before."
Mrs. Jiang?
Wen Ruyue?
Wen Yan looked in the direction of the voice and saw the Jiang family mother and daughter, surrounded by a group of servants, walking towards the discount shop.
How did Jiang Xinkui and her daughter get mixed up with these charcoal-carrying officers?
Moreover, they are kind and good people?!
These people are such a joke.
The aunt who was standing in front of Wen Yan explained to her with a boastful look on her face: "Have you never seen this before?
Those two were the mistress and eldest daughter of the Wen family.
They are a family with a history of hundreds of years, and they are all excellent and kind people.
Not only do they sell their own charcoal to ordinary people like us at low prices, fearing that we would be wronged, they also come to watch over us in person.
Unlike the adopted daughter of the Wen family, who is not only cold-blooded and ruthless towards her adoptive parents, but is also trying to profit from the national crisis at this time!"
"That's right. Right now, charcoal is hard to come by in the entire capital. She has a million kilograms of charcoal in her hands, but she sells it for more than ten times more than others.
The adopted daughter of the Wen family is simply born bad.
Even after being raised by the kind-hearted Madam Jiang for over ten years, he still hasn't changed his despicable character."
Wen Yan: “…”
For a moment, I didn't know how to respond to this enthusiastic aunt.
However, Jiang Xinkui and her daughter are really brave.
He actually set his sights on 'wintering charcoal'.
Wen Yan couldn't help but burst out laughing. These charcoals had passed the test in front of the emperor and empress.
They use "wintering charcoal" to create a good reputation for themselves, but isn't this just walking on their own two feet?
The more famous they build their reputation now, the more terrible their reputation will be when it explodes later.
Wen Yan covered her mouth and laughed secretly. She had nothing to do now and just wait to see the joke.
Wen Yan took the maid's hand and said, "Let's go. The fun here is over."
"Ah?" The maid followed with a confused look on her face.
Not long after Wen Yan and the others left, Leader Yuan and Pei'er came back.
Pei Er saw Jiang Xinkui and her daughter showing off in the shop like a peacock, and she stamped her feet in anger. "Humph! This mother and daughter are really shameful. They even dare to take advantage of such a thing. Look, I'm going to expose her now."
Pei'er rolled up her sleeves and rushed forward.
He was pulled back by the arm by the young leader Yuan: "Calm down, don't be impulsive."
"Others are stepping on our heads, why are you calming down?" Pei'er, who has a bad temper, stomped on his instep in frustration.
Little leader Yuan's face wrinkled in pain.
He held his feet and explained to Pearl with gritted teeth.
After listening to this, Pei'er's anxious expression slowly relaxed.
She poked the young leader Yuan in the chest and said, "If they don't get what they deserve in the end, I will definitely beat you up."
The young leader Yuan covered his chest and said, "There are differences between men and women. Why did you touch me?"
Pei'er: "..."
I really want to roll my eyes at him.
After Wen Yan left the place where he sold charcoal, he prepared to go back home to Qingfeng Xiaolou.
Along the way, she saw many scholars entering the city.
That’s right, the imperial examination will be held in more than two months.
Candidates from other places have recently arrived in the capital.
Since you have passed the imperial examination, you must have enough money.
Then her chance to make money with "A Little Ink" would come again.
She has to go back quickly and make careful arrangements, she will definitely make a lot of money.
Thinking about making a lot of money, Wen Yan's steps became much lighter.
Unexpectedly, when she passed through a small alley, she heard a tearful and pleading voice coming from inside: "Manager Cui, I really have nowhere else to go.
Please help me one more time, wuwuwuwu..."
Wen Yan couldn't help but be curious and took a look inside. Her eyes widened instantly.
