Chapter 467 You have the most money in the whole family!
Outside, Sanqi struggled desperately: "Doctor Jiang, it's really not my fault, I'm innocent! It's mainly because we're incompetent, and it was you who stepped in. Um, you...you don't have to be angry. The imperial decree has already been issued. Shouldn't we think about settling things down here and hurry to the capital? There's gold waiting for you in the capital. Um, didn't the Sixth Prince just say he'd buy you a house?"
As Sanqi spoke, she clung tightly to the door, forcing a smile.
Eunuch Liu was dumbfounded; even now, he still didn't understand why Lord Sanqi had been kicked out.
However, based on his prince's instructions and the precedent set by Eunuch Wang, he resolutely stood on Jiang Nuanzhi's side and immediately said, "What Lord Sanqi said is true. Our prince has indeed bought a house for you, Physician Jiang. But he will absolutely not interfere with when you come to the capital. I, Liu Wang, will also follow Physician Jiang's lead. No matter what you say, just give me your orders. As for the small matter of kicking people out, just leave it to me. You don't need to do it yourself, Physician Jiang."
As he spoke, he immediately took the door from Jiang Nuanzhi, pushed it hard, and slammed Sanqi out of the room.
Jiang Nuan was taken aback and subconsciously looked towards Eunuch Liu.
Hey, this person seems a bit different from the previous ones.
However, she quite liked it. She gave him an encouraging smile and said, "Very good."
Outside the door, Sanqi stared wide-eyed: "Liu Wang! I never expected you to be like this, Liu Wang!"
Eunuch Liu lowered his eyes, appearing to follow Doctor Jiang's lead without question, as if he hadn't heard anything.
Sanqi struggled to climb over the wall, then clasped his hands together and bowed repeatedly to Jiang Nuanzhi: "Dr. Jiang, please, please. Let's go, let's go. Time waits for no one, they're in a hurry over there."
Given that Dr. Jiang was absolutely resistant to both gentle persuasion and force, Sanqi had absolutely no intention of forcibly escorting her to the capital.
This task is too difficult! The Emperor and his master want him to bring Physician Jiang back to the capital within fifteen days. It took them six days to get here, and that was with him and Eunuch Liu riding fast horses. Physician Jiang's carriages and horses certainly won't cooperate with him to run non-stop. Nine days, no matter how you calculate it, it's difficult!
Jiang Nuanzhi glanced at Sanqi: "We'll see."
Then the focus shifted to Eunuch Liu.
Liu Gonggong shuddered in fright, then smiled obsequiously at Jiang Nuanzhi and said, "Physician Jiang, His Highness said that whatever you say goes, and I will absolutely obey your orders. You can leave whenever you wish."
At first, Eunuch Liu thought she was a beautiful woman, but now that she was staring at him, he felt his hair stand on end and he nervously swallowed several times.
Jiang Nuanzhi suddenly laughed: "Eunuch Liu has come from afar and hasn't eaten yet, has he? Please tidy up and prepare to eat. Why don't you stay at my house tonight?"
Eunuch Liu was stunned, never expecting to hear such a reply: "Yes."
Jiang Nuanzhi smiled at him, then took the package Xiao Xuanting had given her from his hand, and said with a smile, "Linchun, find a guest room for Eunuch Liu. Take him to freshen up."
Lin Chun nodded: "Yes."
He then glanced at Eunuch Liu and said, "Come with me."
After saying that, he went straight into the house.
Outside the door, Sanqi sneaked over the wall and followed quietly behind, shrinking his neck and looking like a guilty thief.
Jiang Nuanzhi could tell at a glance that he was definitely involved in this matter, but she was too lazy to deal with him for the time being.
She turned to look at the old man and reached out her hand to him.
"Give it to me."
The old man immediately clutched his chest: "What?"
Jiang Nuanzhi: "Of course it's silver. I don't want it all, just give me half."
Jiang Nuanzhi saw it; Sanqi gave him several bills, which must have been four or five hundred taels.
The old man immediately became dissatisfied: "I earned this through my own abilities, it has nothing to do with you. If you want it, go scare him yourself!"
Jiang Nuanzhi: "If he hadn't sent me the imperial decree, why would he have come? If he hadn't come, how could you have swindled money from me? Hurry up, I'm out of money to buy some good food!"
The old man was so angry that even his mustache trembled: "You're the richest person in the whole family! I saw your little box for storing silver notes was full! What, you don't have money to buy anything good to eat?"
"So, I don't have the money or the strength to do it, right?"
Old man: "!!!"
He gritted his teeth, and finally, as if deflated, pulled out two hundred-tael silver notes from his pocket: "Give me two first, so I can save some money."
Jiang Nuanzhi took it with a smile: "Okay, I'll ask you for more when I run out."
The old man: "."
Seeing Jiang Nuanzhi's greedy appearance, the old man couldn't help but be suspicious: "You like money that much? I'll get you two chests later."
Jiang Nuanzhi: "Hey, that's great! Thank you so much. I'll prepare a Manchu Han Imperial Feast for you."
Jiang Nuanzhi said with a smile.
The old man stared intently at her: "You were absolutely right."
"Approved, approved."
Jiang Nuanzhi didn't take it seriously at all, she was just playing with the old man, and then she went to the kitchen to see what was missing.
Sanqi followed Jiang Nuanzhi into the kitchen furtively, saying, "Um, Dr. Jiang..."
Jiang Nuanzhi glanced at him: "No matter what, let's talk about it after lunch."
"Okay, okay, okay." Sanqi had already resigned herself to her fate, but then she seemed to remember something and suddenly leaned over again: "Then, can I order a hot pot? I've been craving that taste ever since I had it last time, and even the imperial kitchen can't make it."
Then Jiang Nuanzhi squinted at him and laughed in exasperation: "With our relationship, do you think I would make you hot pot?"
Sanqi forced a smile that looked more like a grimace and pulled out a silver note from his pocket: "Well, I won't eat for free, I'll pay with silver."
After saying that, she said resentfully, "I helped you with hoeing the fields at your house. I even helped water the plants. My arms ached for days from exhaustion."
Jiang Nuanzhi glanced at him, and the next second, she smiled brightly and snatched the silver from his hand: "You should have said so earlier!"
He then put the hundred taels of silver into his pocket.
It seems that being a chef can earn much more than being a doctor.
Jiang Nuanzhi even considered changing careers.
Having received the money, Jiang Nuanzhi finally gave him a definite answer: "Just wait a bit. In any case, I need to settle things at home. I don't know when I'll be back from the capital, so I need to make sure everything is arranged properly."
"Of course, of course." Upon hearing this, Sanqi almost burst into tears of joy. As long as she could go back with him, at least his mission wouldn't have been a complete disaster.
Jiang Nuanzhi suddenly turned to look at Sanqi: "Wait, you said the Emperor appointed me as a seventh-rank official. How much is the salary of a seventh-rank imperial physician? What benefits are there?"
