Chapter 24 Ding! Good Samaritan Card Arrived
Mrs. Lu shook off his hand, her face turned pale, and she shook her head in resistance.
"I don't want to look for Jiusu. She's about to leave the Chen family and start a new life. I won't bother her.
Thank you, little brother. There are insects and tigers and leopards in the back mountain. Please go down the mountain quickly. If you meet Jiusu, please tell her that I am sorry for being a burden to her. "
Qian Junjie frowned. He saw it, so he naturally couldn't let her die. Moreover, if Jiusu knew about it, she would definitely look down on him again. "You tell her yourself, I've lived such a bastard life, and I haven't died yet, so why do you want to die?"
He held Lu's arm and asked her to sit down and calm down.
Mrs. Lu smiled bitterly and said, "People who commit evil never realize they are committing evil, so they can only hurt those around them. My youngest son has been away from home for a year and there's no news. My eldest son is doing nothing. My daughter-in-law and grandson call me a blind woman and tell me to get out. They think I'm eating too much. There's no point in living anymore. I might as well go to the mountains and feed a tiger. That would be a worthwhile death."
Hearing this, Qian Junjie lowered his head in thought.
He came back to his senses when he heard the noise next to him. He pulled Lu Shi and said, "Okay, come with me to find Jiusu. If there is anything, tell her."
Lu refused to leave.
Qian Junjie dragged him in front of Jiusu.
"Your mother-in-law wanted to die, and I stopped her." He tilted his head back, and the moment the words came out of his mouth, his heartbeat quickened.
Jiusu was stunned. She looked at the blood-soaked white cloth covering Lu's eyes, her swollen face, and her filthy clothes. Her heart sank, "Did Sun Mei and Chen Wu beat you?"
"No, no." Mrs. Lu lowered her head.
Jiusu sighed deeply. Without any herbs, she didn't dare to remove the cloth from Lu's eyes. She held her mother-in-law's arm.
"You don't have to tell me, I understand."
Then, she noticed Qian Junjie's gradually lost look. If a word could change a person's fate, then she was willing to do it.
"Thank you, Mr. Qian. You are such a good person."
Ding! The Good Samaritan Card has arrived.
Qian Junjie scratched his head. It wasn't the compliment he'd imagined, but the corners of his mouth widened until he finally laughed. His hearty smile spread throughout the foot of the mountain. "No, no, it's just a piece of cake. I... Eh? Where's the person?"
He looked around and saw two people heading down the mountain, chasing after them with baskets in their hands.
The carriage sped along the road, and after an incense stick of time, it arrived at Jiusu's house.
Qian Junjie was nowhere to be seen the whole morning and was caught by Master Qian and taught a lesson.
Jiusu filled a basin with clean water and untied the white cloth. The herbs were already stained with blood. She took a deep breath and wiped them clean with a clean cloth. She said helplessly, "Didn't I tell you not to cry anymore? If you cry again, you won't be able to see anything."
"It's better to let me die." Lu lowered her head and wanted to wipe away her tears, but Jiusu stopped her. She noticed that she was wiping her dirty hands, "Jiusu, don't bother."
Jiusu pursed her lips and flipped through the system store.
【Copper Leaf-300】
[Ointments, gauze, and painkillers have been put into storage.]
These are modern items, so they were all exchanged for copper leaves.
She applied the ointment around her eyes and warned him again, "Don't cry this time. No matter how sad you are, you should wait until your eyes are healed before you cry. Don't forget, Chen Zhao hasn't come back yet. If you die, Chen Zhao will definitely turn against Chen Wu and might even kill him."
For Lu.
My biggest weakness is my family.
She is the lowest and most vulnerable person in the Chen family, but she is also a miserable mother who loves her family and her son. She is the one who most hopes that the Chen family will be well.
"Zhao'er..." Lu's fingers trembled and clenched together, her voice choked, but when she thought of Jiusu's instructions, she swallowed her tears. Her face was covered with wrinkles, as in countless nights.
The first half of her life was spent mourning her deceased husband, and the second half was spent missing her son.
Why did life bring her sorrow?
Jiusu wrapped the gauze, found a recliner, helped her lie down, and covered her with a thin blanket. When she heard someone knocking on the courtyard door, she said, "You rest here first. I'm going to meet someone. Don't leave without permission. Otherwise, I'll go find Chen Wu."
"Okay." Mrs. Lu nodded.
She looked in the direction of the voice and breathed a sigh of relief. This younger daughter-in-law used to be so weak that she dared not say a word in front of the eldest daughter-in-law. But now, she has become a little braver and can overcome every difficulty.
Even a little girl can face it bravely.
Can't she, a blind old woman who has lived for most of her life, do this?
Outside the courtyard, Lu He knocked on the door. Seeing Jiu Su coming out, she stepped over the threshold and motioned the maid to hand over the things in her hand. "Miss Jiu, did the eldest master go back and tell him that he has been with you all morning?"
"Yes." Jiusu said truthfully, "I went to the countryside to pick four baskets of okra and saved my mother-in-law. I haven't had time to go to the Qian family to thank them yet."
Lu He smiled and said, “No wonder he was so happy when he got home that his tail was about to lift up to the sky. The master thought he had done something bad again and chased him around the yard with a broom. The eldest son said he had done a good deed, but the master didn’t believe it and sent me to investigate. It turns out that this was indeed the case.
We should thank Miss Jiu. You taught him for just one day, and he's already done something good. The master is so happy that he can't stop smiling."
The two of them came to the front hall one after the other.
Lu He glanced at the old woman next to her and found that she was exactly the same as Qian Junjie described. When they walked into the house, they were both stunned for a moment.
There was not a single table in the front hall.
Jiusu slapped his head and coughed lightly: "Sorry, I just moved in and forgot to buy furniture. Please forgive me."
"It's no big deal, it's the young lady's business. The eldest master has already said that everything in your yard will be paid for by our Qian family." Lu He pulled her handkerchief and walked out immediately, ignoring Jiu Su's obstruction, and said with a smile, "Don't refuse. My master is rich. You cured the lady and saved the eldest master. You are our great benefactor!"
Being with her, I feel very comfortable.
I thought the wives and concubines would fight to the point of bloodshed, but unexpectedly, a family with real family education would have a harmonious backyard and abundant wealth. For the Qian family, the only drawback is that the wives are injured and the children are ignorant, right?
“Really, there’s no need…”
Before she could finish her words, Lu He smiled and waved her hand and went back home.
Jiusu shook her head helplessly. However, she didn't expect it to come so quickly. Before she even reached Mrs. Lu's side, she heard a noise, "This..."
The maid bowed and said, "Miss Jiu, where do you put all these?"
Seven beds, thirty chairs, five large tables, countless furniture poured in at once. Jiusu felt guilty, and Luhe stepped forward and said, "If Miss Jiu trusts me, why not let me do it?"
"Really, there's no need..."
"Miss Jiu, do you look down on our Qian family?"
Having said this, Jiusu put away the idea of refusing and said with a smile, "Then I'll trouble you."
Mrs. Qian was in poor health, so Lu He was in charge of everything. She managed everything in an efficient manner and soon had arranged all the furniture that had been moved in.
Lu He checked it carefully again and smiled with satisfaction.
"If Miss Jiu is not satisfied with anything, just call the servants of the Qian Mansion and ask them to move it for you. My master is hosting a banquet tonight to entertain Miss Jiu. Please do me the honor."
