Everyone watched the convoy go further and further away with worried faces, thinking that those people were going to be in trouble.
The two servants pinched the unconscious man's Ren Zhong point. When they failed to wake him up after a few pinches, they yelled at the people around them.
"You, you, and the two of you, come and carry my young master to the pharmacy to see a doctor!" The servant pointed at several young men nearby.
The four young men did not dare to disobey and hurried forward to lift the man who was lying on the ground like a dead pig.
Only after the man was carried away did the street vendors breathe a sigh of relief and continue hawking their wares.
But some vendors quickly packed up their things and prepared to leave, as they were afraid of being implicated by what had just happened. Among them was the family of the boy who sold the melons to Jiang Yueyang.
The man squatting next to the boy put the melons on the stall into a basket, put it on his back, and pulled the boy back.
The boy staggered a bit and pointed in the direction the convoy left and said, "Dad, Yuelai Inn is over there."
“Their business is no longer viable.”
"I won't." The boy shook off the man's hand. "They bought fifty melons from us, each for 12 wen, fifty melons is 600 wen, enough for mother to take medicine for a long time!"
The man paused, and after a moment of hesitation, he finally reached out to pull the boy. "They beat up the mayor's son. If we get involved with them, we won't end up well."
"I don't care. Mother needs money for her medical treatment. If Dad is scared, I'll deliver the melon myself."
After saying this, he reached out to take the backpack on his father's back.
"Xiao Hu, Dad knows you are worried about your mom, but we can't afford to offend the mayor." The man persuaded softly.
"If mommy doesn't take the medicine, then... then..." The boy's tears fell, "she's going to die!"
When the man heard this, his eyes became moist. He knew this very well, but he couldn't ignore the little ones.
Xiao Hu seemed to know his father's concerns. He looked at his father earnestly and said, "Dad, those people are obviously not ordinary people. Maybe they can kill that bastard mayor..."
Upon hearing this, the man covered Xiaohu's hand, quickly looked around, and breathed a sigh of relief after making sure that no one was paying attention to them.
"You're asking for your life. If someone hears you saying that, our whole family will be in trouble!"
However, he thought back to the actions of those people and began to waver. Perhaps those people could really...
Seeing his father's emotion, Xiao Hu said, "Dad, those people are so powerful and willing to help those who are bullied. They must be kind people. Besides, I just saw that the beautiful sister had those red-fleshed bitter melons in her car."
"Dad, Mom's illness can't be delayed any longer. I...I don't want to be without Mom." He added with tears in his eyes.
After hearing the last words, the man gritted his teeth and said, "Okay, for your mother's illness, let's take a gamble!"
Xiaohu was happy, "Then let's deliver the melons now. These are not enough, we need to go back and pick some more."
The man nodded, carrying the backpack and pulling Xiaohu, he walked firmly in the direction the convoy left.
At this time, on the other side, Jiang Yueyang and his group had just arrived at Yuelai Inn, and Xia Rui and the others were waiting outside the door.
After the carriage stopped, Jiang Yueyang held Lu Yunting's hand and got out of the carriage.
Xia Rui stepped forward and said, "Madam, this inn is not big, just enough for us to stay in, so I'll book it."
Jiang Yueyang nodded and asked, "Any questions?"
"No, everything is fine."
"Then let everyone settle down."
"promise."
As soon as Jiang Yueyang stepped into the inn, he heard a shout from behind.
"Girl, wait."
Everyone turned around and looked, and it was the girl they had rescued before.
The girl ran up to them and thanked them breathlessly: "Thank you for saving my life, Ah Xiu has no way to repay you."
After saying this, she was about to kneel down and kowtow.
Lu Yunting quickly supported her with the handle of the knife to stop her from kneeling down to thank him.
Jiang Yueyang smiled slightly, "Miss, there is no need to do this, it's just a small favor. Besides, he is blocking my way."
Ah Xiu glanced inside the inn and lowered her voice and said, "Girl, the man who wanted to take me away just now was the mayor's son. His family is powerful and will definitely come to retaliate against you later."
Jiang Yueyang smiled indifferently, "Don't worry, young lady. A mere town mayor can't do anything to me."
Seeing her so calm, Ah Xiu felt relieved, but she still reminded her again: "This Yuelai Inn is owned by the mayor's family."
"It's really a narrow road for enemies to meet." Jiang Yueyang said with a smile.
"Be careful, girl."
Jiang Yueyang nodded and said, "Go back, girl. The mayor's family should be here soon. If they see you with us, you'll be in trouble."
Miss A Xiu nodded and left.
Over at the drugstore, the mayor's son woke up from his coma after being treated by the doctor.
As soon as he woke up, he yelled that he wanted to settle accounts with Jiang Yueyang and the others, and he was venting his anger in the pharmacy. As a result, he accidentally touched the hand that was hit by Lu Yunting with silver, and he cried out in pain!
Prince Wang was in so much pain that he broke out in a cold sweat, which only aroused his anger. He yelled at the servants, "What are you still standing there for? Go tell my father that I was beaten and have him teach those people a lesson."
After hearing this, one of the servants hurried to inform Mayor Wang without delaying for a moment.
The other servant tremblingly helped Prince Wang out without paying for the consultation.
Soon, Mayor Wang found out that his son had been beaten and became furious.
After some inquiries, he learned that Jiang Yueyang and others had checked into Yuelai Inn, and immediately said to his men, "Cut off their hands."
"Yes." The subordinate obeyed the order.
At this moment, Xiaohu and his father came to Yuelai Inn carrying a basket of melons.
Seeing that nothing happened in the inn, my tense heart relaxed a little.
The man said, "The Wang family probably doesn't know what happened on the street yet. Let's take this opportunity to send the melons in."
Xiaohu nodded and walked into the inn with his father.
He had a good memory and pulled his father towards Qin Shi, who was sitting in the lobby drinking tea and resting.
Soon, the two walked to Qin Shi's table.
The man put down the backpack, and Xiaohu looked at Qin Shi and said stiffly: "The pretty sister asked us to find a sister named Xia Rui. We are here to deliver melons."
Qin Shi thought for a moment and realized that Jiang Yueyang had bought melons from them. Just as he was about to ask someone to call Xia Rui, Mayor Wang's men rushed into the inn with a group of people.
