Chapter 520 is disgusting
Li San Niang was engrossed in watching when she heard a voice calling "San Niangzi" from not far away.
Li San Niang turned around and looked toward the sound of the shout, and saw Xu Jingzhen about to squeeze through the crowd.
Yes, although Xu Jingzhen was a martial artist, when he came down from the restaurant and wanted to head in the direction of Li San Niang, he found that there were people everywhere.
It took him a long time to squeeze his way to Li San Niang, thanks to his height and strength.
Looking at the worry in Xu Jingzhen's eyes, Li Sanniang couldn't help but want to facepalm. "What kind of situation is this?"
I actually felt a little guilty towards him.
Seriously, isn't my sense of morality way too high?
Regardless of what Li San Niang thought, seeing Xu Jingzhen's effort to break through the crowd out of concern for her, she still expressed her gratitude.
"Don't worry, Mr. Xu. I have people protecting me. Thank you for your concern. You've gone to a lot of trouble, Mr. Xu."
Just as Xu Jingzhen was about to reply, another "Dr. Li" rang in her ears.
Li San Niang looked towards the source of the voice and saw a familiar face with a look of surprise on its face.
It turned out that the doctor the shopkeeper had sent his assistant to find hadn't arrived yet. Instead, the doctor from the Imperial Medical Bureau, whom the patrolling constable had found on his way back to fetch someone, had come directly over first.
This doctor not only attended Li San Niang's lectures for ulcer doctors, but he was also the same doctor Wang who was taken to find a physician by the official of the Court of State Ceremonial when Li San Niang saved the Indian in the gold and silver shop.
(Plot of Chapters 370-372)
They've called you, you can't just pretend you didn't hear them.
Li San Niang handed Lu Zhu'er to her mother to hold before coming out of the shop entrance and walking this way.
"Dr. Wang."
"Dr. Li."
The two quickly exchanged greetings. Doctor Wang's first reaction upon seeing Li San Niang was one of delight, mainly because the techniques Li San Niang had taught him were very useful. In particular, after practicing them in the days that followed, Doctor Wang found these techniques to be even more effective.
However, Dr. Wang also had some questions. It was unfortunate that he was dragged out by the constables to rescue people, but unexpectedly he also saw Li San Niang.
Only then did Doctor Wang call for help. After bringing Li San Niang over, he realized that the occasion seemed somewhat inappropriate.
Li San Niang was somewhat relieved at this moment. Fortunately, she was stopped, otherwise she would have had to continue being polite to Xu Jingzhen.
Seeing that Doctor Wang was about to treat the woman whose arm had been cut, Li San Niang said directly, "Doctor Wang, if you are in charge of this woman, can I borrow that thing to take a look at her?"
Doctor Wang had no objection, but he still told the constable standing nearby who Li San Niang was.
"It is the renowned Physician Li. I am sorry to trouble you, Physician Li. This woman has injured someone in the street and must be brought to court."
So Li Sanniang squatted down in front of the woman. The woman, whose mouth was now gagged with a cloth, became obedient, but still glared at the woman with resentful eyes.
After speaking to the woman, Li San Niang cut open her sleeve and began to deal with the situation.
The wound is quite deep; it seems the patrol must have used considerable force.
However, as Li San Niang was stitching up, she was thinking that this woman was really amazing. Such a painful cut, so much blood loss, and she didn't even cry out in pain. She even had the strength to curse.
Although Li San Niang was using the wound medicine powder that Doctor Wang brought, which had an anesthetic effect and could stop bleeding, it was not a real anesthetic and she could still feel it. However, as the stitches were being sewn, the woman only frowned a couple of times.
After the stitches were done, just as Li San Niang was about to bandage the wound, a loud, rough male voice boomed in her ear, shouting "Rou Niang! Ah, Rou Niang!"
Li San Niang shook her head to relieve the damage the sound was causing to her eardrums. When she turned around, she saw a tall, strong man being stopped by the police a few steps away.
As soon as this tall, strong man appeared, the sturdy woman who had been forced to kneel on the ground next to Li San Niang reacted very strongly and struggled to stand up.
Upon seeing this, the patrolling constables quickly came over and restrained the woman. Li Sanniang also immediately stood aside, and Qiu Xiang stepped forward to pull Li Sanniang behind her to protect her.
The scene was incredibly dramatic. The tall, strong man looked at the woman, whose face was streaked with tears, who was being treated by Doctor Wang, and cried out, "Rou Niang, how are you? Are you in pain?"
"Ah, Rou Niang, you're hurt. My heart aches so much, so much."
The woman named Rou Niang looked at the tall, strong man with a sob in her voice, and said, "Qing Lang, Qing Lang, you've come."
"Now that you're here, my pain has subsided."
Li San Niang didn't understand the saying that seeing adulterous couples makes her want to vomit before, but now that she sees this scene, she understands.
She really understood!
Because even if she could manage, she really felt like vomiting; the way those two were so sticky was just disgusting and unbearable.
Even Li San Niang couldn't stand it anymore, let alone the strong woman involved. One constable couldn't subdue her. Judging from her appearance now, she was being held down by two constables, one on each side.
However, if the strong woman's eyes could ignite fire, Qinglang and Rou Niang would have been burned to ashes long ago.
The shouts, discussions, and cries of the onlookers grew louder and louder, all because of Qinglang's sudden appearance.
Just as the constable was about to ask Qinglang who he was and what he was doing there, an old man in the crowd called out loudly, "Hey, isn't this Butcher Liu from the east end of Fifth Street?"
"Old man, you said that guy named Qinglang is a butcher? Do you recognize that woman kneeling on the ground?"
As some people wanted to eat melon seeds, others made way for him. The crowd even cleared a path for the short old man carrying a basket. The old man took two steps forward, looked at the sturdy woman on the ground, and said, "This, isn't this Zhu Niang?"
"Zhu Niang is Liu the butcher's wife!"
With a "buzz," the crowd exploded like water being poured into a hot oil pan.
"My goodness, today's show was even more exciting than anything I've ever seen in a brothel!"
"Excellent! Excellent! This is a story of a butcher's wife catching her husband cheating!"
"I knew it! This must be adultery, otherwise the butcher's wife wouldn't be shouting 'vixen'!"
"Look, look, this butcher is still protecting that poor girl who was stabbed."
"Pitiful? You think that woman is pitiful?"
...
The chatter among the crowd did not stop Qinglang and Rou Niang from pouring out their hearts to each other, even though they were seven or eight steps apart.
The two were still exchanging sweet nothings when the constable, looking utterly astonished, shouted, "What's your name? What are you doing here? Tell me the truth!"
