Chapter 304 What's my eldest son doing here?
"Um?"
Jiang Nuanzhi looked at Ping'er in surprise: "What's wrong?"
Ping'er frowned: "Mother, her identity is not ordinary. In any case, she can't stay in our house; there's no benefit for her. You'd better hurry up and send her away."
"You know her?" Jiang Nuanzhi asked in surprise.
She said, "Why did Ping'er's expression seem so strange after she saw this girl yesterday?"
Ping'er's expression showed a moment of panic: "No! I absolutely don't know him!"
"Mother, you must remember, we have absolutely nothing to do with her! No matter what she says, please don't believe her!"
Jiang Nuanzhi asked suspiciously, "Who exactly is she?"
"I don't know him." Ping'er answered decisively, and as she spoke, she had already prepared water: "Mother, please wash your face first, and I will have Master take him away later."
Jiang Nuanzhi frowned, looking at him with a conflicted expression: "But Ping'er, we haven't received the consultation fee yet."
Ping'er paused as she pushed Jiang Nuanzhi toward washing her face: "Don't worry, I'll ask my master for it later."
"Who is she?"
Ping'er pursed her lips: "I really don't know him, he's just an insignificant person. Please stay away from him."
Then, no matter how Jiang Nuanzhi asked, Ping'er stubbornly refused to read, not uttering a single extra word.
Helpless, Jiang Nuanzhi turned around and went inside to quickly wash up.
"Stop! What are you doing?"
Suddenly hearing Ping'er's voice from outside, Jiang Nuanzhi frowned, wiped her face hastily, and ran out.
When she stepped outside, it was just before dawn. The entire area outside the fence was already surrounded by a large group of people, roughly thirty or so, all dressed in blackâquite a grand spectacle. Even Jiang Nuanzhi was taken aback: "Who are you people?"
The woman at the head of the group, dressed in a black and red outfit with a large knife at her waist, frowned and said, "The tracking incense is stronger now; the princess must be here."
After saying that, she looked at Jiang Nuanzhi and Ping'er, her brows furrowing tightly: "You audacious commoners! How dare you kidnap the princess! Release her at once!"
Ping'er's face paled, and he barely managed to stand in front of Jiang Nuanzhi. He pursed his lips, turned to look at Jiang Nuanzhi, and his eyes were filled with guilt.
"Don't talk nonsense, it was my mother who saved your princess!"
Jiang Nuanzhi sensed something was off about Ping'er's reaction and subconsciously glanced at the young boy in front of her. His robe was a bit short, and with the slight breeze, his legs were even more exposed beneath it. Jiang Nuanzhi immediately pulled the child behind her. Her gaze then fell on the newcomer.
"Are you all here looking for someone? There seems to be some misunderstanding. I am a doctor, and yesterday a friend of mine rescued a young woman on the mountain. If you are looking for someone, she is still resting in the house and is fine now, so you can rest assured."
Upon hearing this, the woman in red at the head of the group was taken aback. She instinctively looked over, her gaze landing on Ping'er, and she couldn't help but frown slightly. However, before she could speak, a sharp, explosive sound came from inside the room!
"Aaaaaah!!!"
"Princess!" The woman's expression hardened, and she rushed into the house with lightning speed.
"Yuchuan! Yuchuan! Where have you been? Hurry up and come save this princess!"
"What the hell is that? It's disgusting!"
"Where is Princess Hei Ben?"
Before Jiang Nuanzhi could even enter the house, she heard a chaotic noise coming from inside.
She hurried inside, and sure enough, the injured girl had woken up. She was standing in the corner with a look of disgust on her face. Even when she stood on the heated brick bed, she looked pale with discomfort.
Baozhu and Xiao Er were still asleep when she woke them up. They were both a little dazed and stared blankly at the woman.
Jiang Nuanzhi rushed forward, embraced her child, and looked over with a frown.
"Princess! Don't be afraid, it's alright now." A female guard named Yuchuan stepped forward and gently comforted her.
"Yuchuan, where am I?"
Yu Chuan frowned: "Princess, don't you remember what happened before? We couldn't find you yesterday, we searched for you all day."
"I...I was going to find the general, but damn it, I fell into a big pit."
The woman gritted her teeth and said, "Damn it, this is really bad luck."
The next second, as if remembering something, she stared blankly at her clothes. Her face immediately turned pale again: "What the hell am I wearing?"
"Princess, don't worry, I'll go get you some clothes right away, please come down first."
"I'm asking you, what's this on me?!" Her eyes suddenly widened: "Ahhh!"
"Shut up! Of course you're wearing clothes, you idiot." Baozhu tugged at her hair in annoyance and said, "You're so noisy, it's so annoying."
She then looked at Jiang Nuanzhi beside her and said, "Mother, let's not save her. Let her leave quickly. This is so annoying."
Baozhu looked at the quilt that her mother had just washed not long ago, and she was reluctant to use it. It was really annoying that someone had stepped on it.
Jiang Nuanzhi glanced at Xiao Baozhu with some surprise.
I didn't expect this little girl to be so bold.
When Jiang Nuanzhi saw the little girl glaring angrily at the pink quilt, she couldn't help but twitch her lips and poke her sullen little face before turning to the opposite side and saying, "This young lady seems to be almost fully recovered. The consultation fee is two taels of silver. Once settled, you may leave."
Baozhu nodded vigorously, then said unhappily, "And besides, my mother hasn't even complained about you yet! You'd better hurry up and take off my mother's clothes, you look awful in them! They look much better on my mother!"
The princess opposite was stunned by the shout, and after a while she pointed to her own nose and said with an incredulous look, "This little thing is talking to me?"
Then, turning to look at Yu Chuan, she said, "What did she say? That I, the princess, am ugly? Huh!"
She suddenly screamed like a madwoman, rolled up her sleeves, and charged at Baozhu: "You little brat, say that again! I'll tear your mouth open! Ahhh! Let me go! Yuchuan, I order you to tear her mouth apart right now!!!"
Seeing that things were not going well, Yu Chuan hugged his princess, rubbed his temples, nodded to Jiang Nuanzhi, and immediately took out a bag of silver from his pocket and placed it on the heated kang.
"Thank you for your kindness, madam. We'll buy these clothes as well, and the extra money can be considered a token of our gratitude."
Then, he simply hoisted the person onto his back, intending to take the young princess away.
"Let go of me! Where are the guards? On my command, slap that little brat across the face right now! Hurry up! Or I'll take your lives!"
"Xiao Nianjun, can you please be quiet!"
The air did indeed quiet down after those words were spoken.
The young princess, who was being carried on Yu Chuan's back, turned her head stiffly to look at the person speaking beside her.
Ping'er frowned deeply, staring at her with a cool gaze and a face full of impatience.
The young princess's previously gloomy face brightened the moment she saw Ping'er, her clear eyes instantly sparkling with dazzling joy.
"Oh! What's my eldest son doing here!"
Upon hearing this, Ping'er's face instantly turned ashen: "Shut up! You, you, you! Don't talk nonsense! My mother is standing right behind me!" He then looked at Jiang Nuanzhi beside him with a hint of panic: "Mother, believe me, I have absolutely no relationship with her, not a single word she said is true!"
