Chapter 128 You little bastard, how dare you hit me!
Xie Liangchen and Afu were already starving, and now that they saw the big iron pot, they couldn't move an inch.
The two of them only ate half a steamed bun at noon, and finished it before they could even taste it.
The reason the two were in such a hurry to go home was that they thought even wild vegetable dumplings would be good enough to fill their stomachs.
Who knew that Zhao Yuniang was injured today, and even the wild vegetable dumplings were gone.
Right now, the aroma of Jiang Nuanzhi's sweet and sour pork ribs is relentlessly wafting into my nose.
Ah Fu's stomach was already rumbling, and he took several deep breaths: "Young Master, it smells so good."
Xie Liangchen couldn't help but glance at the iron pot several times, secretly swallowing his saliva. Seeing Afu almost crawling into the pot, he couldn't help but frown: "Don't look like you've never seen anything like this before."
He uttered a reprimand, and the next second, his stomach also started rumbling, even louder than Afu's.
Xie Liangchen blushed deeply.
The two of them entered the courtyard, and Jiang Nuanzhi couldn't pretend not to see them, especially since their stomachs were rumbling like drums.
She turned her head and looked at me questioningly, but didn't say anything.
Xie Liangchen covered his stomach in embarrassment, clenched his fists, and said with a stern face, "Jiang Pangya, there is a sick person in my family. Could you go and visit them?"
Jiang Nuanzhi looked at him with a strange expression: "...Just asking me to make a house call?"
Xie Liangchen was taken aback: "What did you think it was?"
Jiang Nuanzhi: "It's nothing."
She assumed the two men were there to cause trouble. After all, her own family had beaten Zhao Yuniang so badly; it was only natural that they would come looking for trouble.
Jiang Nuanzhi had even decided that she would deny it to the death if asked. But she never expected that Xie Liangchen had actually invited her to make a house call.
Come to think of it, I've been here for quite a while now, but I haven't seen many patients. Even counting cats and dogs, I can count them on one hand.
Xie Liangchen was one of her biggest customers.
Thinking this, Jiang Nuanzhi smiled and said, "Where's the money? As long as the consultation fee is paid, everything will be fine."
Xie Liangchen was stunned for a moment when he met her sudden bright smile. He was bumped by Afu, which brought him back to his senses. He immediately took out two taels of silver from his pocket and handed it over.
As Afu watched the two of them exchange words, his eyes grew brighter and brighter. Jiang Pangya's words just now were loaded with meaning? It seems there's still hope! He knew there was no woman who could resist such a handsome young master as his young master. Her previous indifference towards the young master was indeed just an act.
Jiang Nuanzhi, unaware of their ulterior motives, swiftly pocketed the two taels of silver and turned back with a smile to instruct, "Young Master Lü, peel and mince the garlic, then add it to the prepared sauce. Eat first, don't wait for me."
After saying that, he went inside to get the silver needles, and then went out to call Xie Liangchen and the other person to go out.
Seeing this, Li Junping suddenly stepped forward and tugged at Jiang Nuanzhi's hand: "Mother, can I go with you?"
His smile was even radiant, with shallow dimples at the corners of his mouth, giving him an innocent and charming appearance.
Jiang Nuanzhi felt strangely uneasy. Was this the first time the villain had ever called her "mother"? A chill ran down her spine for no apparent reason.
However, thinking that this hostility was probably not directed at him, he patted his head and said, "Okay, let's go."
Xie Liangchen followed, but after only two steps, he felt a cool gaze lock onto him.
He glanced over instinctively and saw the child looking back at him.
Meeting the child's eyes, Xie Liangchen couldn't help but frown slightly.
This child
Although they were from the same academy and would see each other all the time, the boy he saw was definitely not as well-behaved as he appeared in front of Jiang Pangya.
Furthermore, according to his understanding, the child seemed to be of low character.
Not only did he steal from his classmate, he also beat him so badly that he couldn't get out of bed and even knocked out one of his teeth.
That man, unfortunately, was also a poor scholar, and was so humiliated by him that he nearly committed suicide. Now, almost everyone in the academy avoids him like the plague.
Seeing that Jiang Pangya seemed to care for him quite a bit, Xie Liangchen thought he should give her a reminder.
Although Jiang Pangya was annoying and not a good person in the past, she was still a servant in my household. Now that I'm raising such a child, I don't know when she might turn on me.
But when the words were on the tip of his tongue, he didn't know how to say them.
Jiang Nuanzhi didn't think too much about it and went straight to see the patients as soon as she entered the room.
Zhao Yuniang's condition is more serious; let's see her first.
She was drooling, but she wasn't actually seriously injured. The old man had simply dislocated her limbs. His technique was very skilled; he hadn't broken any bones, just dislocated them, but that was enough to cause her excruciating pain.
Jiang Nuanzhi restored each part of her body to its original position and then reattached her chin.
"You bitch! You slut!"
"Liangchen! Kill her for me! It's all her family's fault!"
Before Zhao Yuniang could speak, she pointed at Jiang Nuanzhi with resentment, trembling with anger.
Xie Liangchen couldn't help but frown and look at Jiang Nuanzhi.
Seeing that Xie Liangchen didn't make a move, Zhao Yuniang suddenly pounced on Jiang Nuanzhi like a madwoman, baring her teeth and claws.
Jiang Nuanzhi frowned and tried to dodge, but because she was on the heated kang (a traditional heated brick bed), she was still embraced.
Just as Zhao Yuniang's hand was about to strike Jiang Nuanzhi's face, a wooden stick swung over the next second.
With a bang, it hit the hand that Zhao Yuniang was using to grab Jiang Nuanzhi.
Looking back, it turned out that Ping'er had been hitting them with a wooden stick at some point.
Suddenly, Zhao Yuniang let out a scream like a pig being slaughtered.
"You little bastard, how dare you hit me! I'll kill you!"
Zhao Yuniang seemed unable to accept the fact that she had been beaten by Ping'er, and went completely mad.
Ping'er, however, swung the stick again, showing no mercy whatsoever.
Jiang Nuanzhi quickly stopped her and knocked the agitated Zhao Yuniang unconscious with a karate chop.
"Hey! Is this kid crazy? What's with that look in his eyes? Does he want to kill someone?!"
Afu was startled and immediately put his hands on his hips, shouting, "Jiang Pangya, why did you resort to such underhanded tactics!"
Jiang Nuanzhi had already settled Zhao Yuniang on the heated kang. Upon hearing this, she immediately shielded Ping'er behind her, narrowing her eyes slightly: "Are you blind? Zhao Yuniang attacked me first. What's wrong with me, Ping'er, protecting me?"
Afu: "But he shouldn't have hit someone with such a big stick. The way he did it was like he was going to beat them to death. Also, Zhao Yuniang said that it was your family who beat her, what's that all about?"
Jiang Nuanzhi: "How am I supposed to know what this crazy woman is saying?"
"I haven't even asked you yet. You wouldn't have conspired with Zhao Yuniang to plot against me, would you?"
"You're talking nonsense!" Afu's eyes widened immediately: "Who would pay two taels of silver before harming someone?"
Jiang Nuanzhi: "Who knows? I just healed her, and she tried to kill me. You two just stood by and did nothing, letting her bully me. If my son hadn't been here, I don't know how badly I would have been bullied."
"You're talking nonsense! She can't possibly bully you! You could break her leg with one hand!"
He could see it clearly: Jiang Nuanzhi hadn't used any force at all to subdue the person, which was why that kid could hit so accurately.
Jiang Nuanzhi rolled her eyes: "Xie Liangchen, can you control your barking dog? If you can't, I don't mind cleaning it up for you."
Xie Liangchen pursed his lips: "Afu, say less."
After saying that, seeing Jiang Nuanzhi protecting Li Junping behind her like a chick, he couldn't help but frown: "This child of yours seems to have a certain character."
“You don’t need to worry about my child.” Jiang Nuanzhi frowned and said, “Do we still need to see the doctor? If not, I’m going back.”
After Jiang Nuanzhi finished speaking, she saw Xie Liangchen's face fall long, clearly indicating that he was angry.
But who cares?
Without saying a word, Jiang Nuanzhi simply grabbed Ping'er and left.
They had only taken a couple of steps when Afu suddenly exclaimed, "Don't go! We need to see a doctor! We need to see a doctor! Chun Tao is here too. And our young master's arm needs to be checked. Jiang Pangya, don't take the money and not treat the illness, or I'll definitely go around the village making a scene!" After saying that, she kept winking at Xie Liangchen.
Xie Liangchen's face was ashen, but he still said with a dark expression, "Please take a look at Chun Tao."
Goodnight, my darlings
