Chapter 9 Sincerely Convinced



Jiang Ying watched leisurely as Qi Ren placed a heavy purse and a fine jade pendant on the table and pushed them in front of her.

Pretending not to understand, "What does Guard Qi mean by this?"

Qi Ren gritted his teeth, "Aunt Jiang... Oh no, Miss Jiang, Miss Jiang, I was blind just now. Can you please be magnanimous and not argue with me?"

Jiang Ying didn't say anything, but just played with the jade pendant in his hand.

Qi Ren saw that there was a chance, and instantly he didn't care about face anymore, and laughed, "This jade pendant is a gift from you, it's very good.

"Grandpa originally said he would give it to me as a family heirloom. Now that I see that I'm the only one left in our Qi family, as long as I'm alive and well, it will be more useful than any heirloom, right?"

Jiang Ying almost laughed at him.

This kid is cunning and weird, but he is not that annoying.

He subconsciously glanced at Siyu.

Siyu and Chen Ma are both loyal and serious about their work. Even for the sake of his and Siyu's future relationship, Jiang Ying will not stand idly by.

She called Siyu over.

Qi Ren was extremely excited, thinking that the hidden danger on his neck could finally be removed!

Finally, Jiang Ying smiled and stuffed the jade pendant into Siyu's arms, "This is a reward for you. Continue to be loyal to me and take good care of the young master."

Siyu was flattered, "Ah? This..."

The main thing is that she just saw it. Isn't this the medical fee that Guard Qi gave to the girl? Is it really okay to give it to her in front of her?

Qi Ren on the side is the real one who is tied to Q.

Big sister, that's my family heirloom. Please don't give it to the servants in front of me, okay?

Jiang Ying’s inner thoughts: Tsk, you don’t understand, I’m just preparing for a rainy day.

“…” Qi Ren didn’t know what to say.

After a long pause, he managed to speak, "Forgive me for interrupting you. Doctor Zhu and I will leave today. If you are free some other time, please send someone to let me know."

He won't be able to recover if he doesn't adjust for a day or two.

Besides, we need to give Jiang time to prepare.

Jiang Ying didn't say anything. He stood up and took out the towel that Xiao Yanzhi had used to wipe himself in the bathtub. He squeezed some water and handed it to Qi Ren, "Try applying it on the wound."

Qi Ren, "!!!"

The expression that had just been half adjusted returned to normal in an instant.

Damn, this woman is making fun of him!

Jiang Ying knew what he was thinking at a glance, and said with a half-smile, "Don't employ a person you doubt, and don't doubt a person you employ. You've already paid me the consultation fee, so why not trust my medical skills?"

Qi Ren's face was like a palette of colors, complex and forbearing.

Sister, there is not only dandruff in the water, but also mud and dirt. Can't you see it?

Just a towel soaked in someone else's bath water, and you want me to believe that it can cure diseases?

Jiang Ying raised her hand until it was sore, but Qi Ren still refused to take it. She got angry and said, "Forget it if you don't want to try. I'm telling you, even though this water looks dirty, the medicinal herbs inside are worth as much as ten of your jade pendants."

Qi Ren's eyes widened, and Zhu Rong took a breath.

Seeing Zhu Rong staring at the handkerchief and bath water with shining eyes, Qi Ren no longer hesitated, snatched the handkerchief, and without saying a word, pinched his nose and pressed it against the scar.

Jiang Ying curled his lips, "That's pretty good."

After a moment, Qi Ren felt a cool and comfortable feeling spreading from the area covered by the handkerchief to every part of his body. He froze in place, extremely surprised.

The light in his eyes was unusually obvious.

Jiang Ying took the purse and said confidently, "Well, I didn't lie to you, did I?"

Zhu Rong couldn't help but ask, "Qi boy, how do you feel?"

Qi Ren pursed his lips and lowered his gaze, mostly out of shame, not daring to look Jiang Ying in the eye. "It's quite good. It's refreshing and cool, and it neutralizes the burning sensation."

"That's useful!" Zhu Rong made the final decision.

Jiang Ying clapped his hands, "That's fine. You go back first. When I'm out of confinement, I'll give you a complete cure."

Of course it is possible now, but Qi Ren was so arrogant just now, Jiang Ying plans to teach him a lesson.

Let him be anxious for this month.

Qi Ren finally realized how powerful Jiang Ying was. He didn't dare to say anything and reluctantly took off the handkerchief in his hand. "Miss Jiang, you said you'd come back next month. But, don't you need to take care of yourself during this month?"

What if, as Zhu Rong said, the fire grows into the brain?

Jiang Ying couldn't help laughing, and reached into his sleeve pocket, actually taking out a piece of spiritual spring crystal from the space.

"This, take a fingernail-sized amount each time, add water and apply it as a hot compress. This will keep the condition stable for a month."

It's just a minor illness, not even a miracle cure can help.

Just the spiritual spring is enough.

Qi Ren took it with tears in his eyes, suppressed his manliness and bowed to Jiang Ying.

"Thank you, young lady."

As the two returned the same way, Zhu Rong's eyes were fixed on Qi Ren's chest with warmth.

He placed the crystal stone given by Miss Jiang there.

Zhu Rong did not think it was strange that a crystal stone could cure diseases. After all, in the Compendium of Materia Medica, many stones were used as medicine.

For example, five-colored stones are often used for anesthesia and pain relief.

I was just curious about what the stone was, and I really, really wanted to own some.

After enduring for a long time, he finally couldn't hold it in any longer and said to Qi Ren, "Um... Qi boy, can you give me a little bit of the medicinal stone that Miss Jiang gave me? Just a little bit will do, even powder will do!"

Qi Ren subconsciously covered his chest with his hands.

Good guy, I knew he was staring at me the whole time and had no good intentions.

"Doctor Zhu, you are someone I trust. Logically, I shouldn't keep secrets from you, but I just gave away my heirloom, and all I got is a small piece the size of a pigeon egg..."

It will take a month to use, there is no time to save it, how can I possibly give it away!

After much persuasion from Doctor Zhu, Qi Ren finally agreed to let him use a handkerchief as a cushion and a dagger to scrape off a little powder from the crystal stone.

Even with this, Qi Ren was still crying out in pain, "Doctor Zhu, you were too rough! Look, it's even left a dent!"

Zhu Rong, “…”

You idiot, are you taking advantage of my age and poor eyesight? There's no such thing as a dent; there are only a few subtle scratches!

The thin layer of powder on his handkerchief was not even as much as the dust on the table at home.
