Chapter 654 Complaint
Hearing the call from the back room, Gu Yuan's mother smiled, took the basin and placed it beside her, and Xu Miaomiao immediately went forward to wash her hands.
Her sleeves were tugged, and when Xu Miaomiao turned around, she saw Xiaobao smiling at her. Xu Miaomiao immediately squatted down and looked at Xiaobao and said, "What's wrong? Shouldn't you be resting at this time?"
"Mother, I saw it when you were treating that young prince just now."
Xiaobao looked at Xu Miaomiao with a sweet smile.
Xu Miaomiao smiled and tapped Xiaobao's head, then looked at him and said, "So, what do you know now?"
"Hehe." Xiao Bao smiled, and then he spoke after looking at Xu Miaomiao's appearance: "Originally, the prescription didn't need to be so painful. Although mother gave a few injections to cure the disease, I'm afraid that they were just to make that little husband suffer a little more."
"You little brat."
Xu Miaomiao smiled and turned her head, only to see Lian Zhi wrapped in bandages, with eyes full of beads, looking at Xu Miaomiao with misty eyes. She stood there in a daze for a long time, then immediately bowed and smiled at Xu Miaomiao: "Thank you, Madam Xu, for your help."
"I can't help you. The scars on your body are too old. I'm afraid they can't be restored to their original appearance. I can only make them as light as possible. You understand."
After listening to Xu Miaomiao's words, Lian Zhi bowed slightly and smiled in her direction: "Thank you, my lady."
This time Xu Miaomiao did not continue to shirk. She shook off the wet water on her hands and spoke to Gu Yuanniang, "I didn't finish yesterday's work, so I have to go again today. Liu Niang, you should keep an eye on the family. If the person in the backyard is really annoying, find someone to shut her up. Also, be careful not to let Wang Mang bump into the child."
"Don't worry."
Gu Yuanniang nodded towards Xu Miaomiao as she spoke: "Ling'er is now thinking about how to find his own talent all day long, so he doesn't have the time to take care of him. Besides, Erbao is a well-behaved child. If Xiaobao wants to go and learn martial arts, he won't be able to get in the way with just Nian Miao in my arms."
"That's good. I'll be leaving first."
Xu Miaomiao waved and left towards the door.
Gu Yuanniang also waved her hand. This way of saying goodbye was taught to her by Xu Miaomiao.
Seeing Lian Zhi still standing on the steps in a daze, Gu Yuanniang smiled and said, "If you have time, come and play shelling beans."
Lian Zhi smiled, nodded at Gu Yuanniang, and walked over.
"Mother, everything is ready."
Dabao nodded and spoke to Xu Miaomiao. Li Yi, who was standing beside them, looked at the two of them and took a step forward curiously. He stared at Xu Miaomiao and said, "What is this? It's so mysterious."
"Nothing, just the fish from yesterday."
Dabao said as he picked up the fish in his hand. Li Yi fanned his mouth and nose with some disgust, glared at Dabao, and then put his hand down.
Xu Miaomiao smiled and looked at the two of them, finding them very interesting.
Yesterday they just went to Wangjia Village to ask the local people and bought the fish from the fisherman, but the issue of the vegetables was not yet clear.
Since we want to leave the shopkeeper no reason to fight back, we must find all the evidence.
Following behind Xu Miaomiao, Li Yi was holding a dogtail grass in his mouth, Dabao was wearing a white robe, a bamboo hat on his head, and holding a few fish in one hand.
When she arrived at the place that the man had originally mentioned, Xu Miaomiao finally understood what was going on here.
If it weren't for the guidance of the shopkeeper, she would probably never have known in her life that there was such a poor place in Bai County.
Three or four women were sitting in a row, wearing clothes that were almost faded from washing. It was clearly winter, but the clothes were so thin. Even their shoes were made from a few random pieces of grass and vines and could not keep out the cold.
There were some vegetables in front of them, but they looked very fresh. There was also a box of rotten leaves next to them.
Seeing Xu Miaomiao and her group coming, the woman immediately stood up and said, "Madam, are you here to buy vegetables? Look at what I have. If you want, I can give it to you at a discount."
Xu Miaomiao didn't say anything. Li Yi, who had been slacking off behind her, took out the dogtail grass in his mouth and looked at the woman in front of him seriously.
Dabao didn't show any surprise. Instead, he looked at the leftover leaves in the basket and asked, "What are these?"
The woman smiled awkwardly: "These are all worthless rotten vegetable leaves. If you ladies and husbands want them, I can give some to you."
Xu Miaomiao did not say anything, but took a step forward and looked at the rotten vegetable leaves in the frame. They were obviously exactly the same as what they had eaten at that time. She thought that the shopkeeper must have thought that they were outsiders and would definitely not investigate the matter, so he did such a thing.
Seeing the woman like this, Xu Miaomiao didn't know what to say. Seeing her like this, Li Yi at the side spoke first: "Madam, someone came to you earlier to ask for these vegetable leaves."
The woman lowered her head and thought for a while, then raised her head and nodded: "Indeed, she did, and she gave me a few copper coins, so I gave her all the leftovers."
"Give me all these leftover vegetable leaves today." Xu Miaomiao looked at Dabao, and Dabao immediately took out some silver and handed it to the woman opposite.
The woman was a little flattered and began to thank Xu Miaomiao.
The money she gave was enough to buy her all the vegetables, not to mention some leftovers.
Xu Miaomiao smiled and left.
Li Yi immediately took all the leaves in his hand and looked at Xu Miaomiao who was standing beside him in confusion: "Master, where are we going now?"
Dabao, who was standing by, loved the game. He looked at Li Yi and said nothing.
"Now that we have all the evidence, we will naturally go and settle the score with the shopkeeper."
Hearing Dabao's words, Li Yi nodded and looked at Xu Miaomiao in front of him.
Xu Miaomiao also smiled: "It's time to settle the matter."
"good."
Li Yi nodded, held the vegetable leaves even tighter with his hands, and smiled at Xu Miaomiao and Dabao.
Li Yi opened his own shop originally because he really likes cooking, but now such a thing has happened in his restaurant. Naturally, Li Yi is the first one who is unwilling to do so. Now he finally has the opportunity to clarify the matter, so he naturally wants to be the first to take action.
Perhaps he was walking too fast, Li Yi looked back at Xu Miaomiao and Dabao and waved to them.
Dabao's expression remained unchanged.
