Chapter 128 Incident
After being kicked twice in a row, even though the opponent reduced his strength, despite Nanny Chen's pampered body, she still sat on the ground and groaned in pain.
The accompanying maid rushed over to support him, and shouted at Chen Chunxing fiercely: "Madame Chen is the Seventh Prince's wet nurse. How dare you be disrespectful to her? Aren't you afraid of offending the royal family?"
Chen Chunxing rolled his eyes. It was difficult to explain to such people that he had not moved at all... You were the ones who were looking for trouble, and now you are the ones who feel wronged. It's really interesting.
She was too lazy to pay attention and led the tall girl to Ge Daniu's stall.
Everyone looked at each other.
The seventh prince?
So amazing...
How could such a respectable person have anything to do with this dead land?
Does not exist.
They didn't feel anything at all. They were scattered around talking and laughing, as if they couldn't see the two people on the ground.
"Mammy, why don't we go back first? The people here are too barbaric. Getting angry with them will only hurt yourself. It's not worth it."
Although the maidservant said that she was powerful, she was actually afraid in her heart.
I've heard before that this place is quite chaotic. If they kill someone and bury him secretly, even if relatives report the case, it will definitely be a cold case.
No matter how noble the status of the Earl's Mansion is, it refers to the master of the mansion. The two of them are just servants. Who can really come here to stand up for themselves?
"Just now you asked me to come, and now you want me to leave. So I came here just to get kicked? You little girl, are you trying to piss me off so you can take my place?"
Nanny Chen couldn't swallow this anger. She glared at the maid and scanned the crowd. When she spotted someone, she stood up with difficulty, walked over a few steps, and said arrogantly, "Follow me!"
The old student was stunned and couldn't help but grin. Why did he get himself involved in the fun?
"Write a petition for me and submit it to the government office. I want to see if the ruler of Honglu County is still His Majesty!"
Nanny Chen sneered, threw a piece of silver to the old student, then turned and walked towards the market, not at all worried that the other party would refuse.
Two taels of silver.
The old student understood the general idea after just one touch. He wiped it with his sleeve, bit it carefully, then put it in his arms and followed slowly.
The people who live here are willing to risk their lives for money.
Miss Shen is good...but doesn't she still have County Magistrate Xue to protect her? At least there's no need for an old man like me to worry about it.
there.
Ge Daniu took the prescription, took a quick look at it, and then frowned: "This medicine doesn't seem right..."
The tall girl was anxious: "How could it be wrong? Doctor Chang clearly told me to come get the medicine today! I, I really didn't lie!"
"I didn't say you were lying. Who wouldn't cheat for medicine? Are you afraid of dying?" Ge Daniu frowned even more. He turned the prescription over and over against the light, then secretly glanced at the girl several times before suddenly asking, "Are you a girl?"
Chen Chunxing had just taken the bowl of tea handed to him by Baoer and almost spit out tea when he heard this.
The tall girl looked at her and smiled kindly: "Uncle, don't look at me because I look like a man. We have to make a living on the border, so it's inevitable that we have to live a rough life. I have to look like a woman, and my sister has to look like a man."
The words were spoken with great frankness, and the helplessness of life was revealed between the lines.
Ge Daniu rubbed his hands in shame: "That's not what I meant, girl, it's this medicine! It's... it's..."
The tall girl's lips trembled, a little frightened, thinking that the old doctor yesterday didn't tell her that she had a serious illness...
Chen Chunxing listened for a long time but didn't get the point, so he couldn't help but urge: "What is it?"
"This medicine is an aphrodisiac!" Ge Daniu said without hesitation, "It's for men only. Women are not allowed to touch it."
“…”
He has been making a living by reselling medicinal herbs for many years, so he still has some common sense.
The tall girl blushed.
No matter how strong you are in normal times, you will still feel ashamed when you encounter such a thing.
"That's impossible? No matter how old and blurry Doctor Chang's eyesight is, he wouldn't make such a mistake..." Chen Chunxing was surprised.
When an old man diagnoses a patient, he has to take the patient's pulse, so there is absolutely no possibility of misidentifying the gender.
Ge Daniu shook his head, also very puzzled: "I don't have any of the medicines on the list here at all."
The medicine packages he came to pick up today were all prepared yesterday. He had received the prescription lists yesterday, but he didn't see this one.
"Could it be that I missed it?"
"Then you shouldn't prescribe aphrodisiacs to girls..."
The three of them didn't understand, so they went to the west of the city to ask Doctor Chang.
The Shen family has a mule cart, which is quite convenient.
Chen Chunxing always likes to watch the fun, so he excitedly led the tall girl into the car. As soon as they drove away from the market entrance, they heard a noisy sound coming from behind them.
"Someone seems to be calling you?"
The two of them sat together outside the car, with Shen Chunxing driving. When she saw the tall girl wanted to look back, she smiled faintly.
"In this market, eight out of ten people know me, and I guess they are saying hello to me."
When the tall girl heard this, she thought it made sense and ignored it.
Behind the mule cart.
Nanny Chen's nose was crooked with anger. The maid hesitated to speak, wanting to persuade her to leave, but was afraid of being punished again. Finally, the old student asked, "Are you still going to sue?"
"Why don't you tell on me!" Nanny Chen stamped her feet vigorously and chased after the mule cart with a held breath.
She must teach that ignorant girl a lesson today!
Perhaps blinded by anger, Nanny Chen didn't notice that the pain in her legs, which had always been a bit stiff, had inexplicably subsided, and even her old chest tightness seemed to have disappeared...
The mule cart drove all the way to the west city market.
After hearing the two people's intentions, Doctor Chang glanced at the tall girl and snorted in dissatisfaction: "My eyesight may be poor, but I'm not blind! How can I not tell whether this girl is a boy or a girl? Bring me the list!"
The girl quickly handed over the prescription.
Shen Zhixia curiously moved closer to Doctor Chang, stood on tiptoe, and looked at his hand. Suddenly, she chuckled and shook her head, not knowing whether to laugh or cry.
"See? My apprentice figured it out!" Doctor Chang proudly tossed the list onto the table. "Although the handwriting here bears some resemblance to mine, it lacks rhythm and form. It hasn't captured the essence of the writing at all! It's a shame that Chun, who's so clever, couldn't even figure out this little trick."
Chen Chunxing: “…”
God knows how difficult it is to practice calligraphy!
She wasn't the second or third child, one was very cunning and the other had a good memory, and they were considered the top students in the village...
Ahem, we’ve strayed off topic.
Chen Chunxing thought for a moment and asked the tall girl, "Did you let go of the prescription after you got it?"
The tall girl looked bewildered. After thinking for a long time, she said uncertainly, "On the way to the south of the city, I was indeed knocked down by someone. The prescription slip flew out of my hand for a distance, but I got up and picked it up... That little beggar was still a child. He couldn't have been the one to do anything bad, could he?"
Chen Chunxing smiled.
No words.
The tall girl realized it herself, but she didn't get angry. She smacked her lips helplessly.
In this world, people will do anything to survive.
Wanting to live is never a sin.
As for the bad guys involved, everyone already knows who they are.
But the other party probably didn't expect that Ge Daniu was selling medicine, but he was not selling medicine. He took a very small profit and carefully prepared the medicine every day, leaving no opportunity for others to tamper with it.
"Hate!"
Shen Zhixia angrily wrote two words on Shen Chunxing's palm. She smiled and touched her sister's little head.
"Anyone who even our Zhixia hates must be a very bad person."
Selling drugs at high prices is unscrupulous, and even if they make some small mistakes, nothing can be done to them.
But changing someone else's prescription...it's a bit like taking human life lightly.
She and Ah Huai just needed a good place to make money.
After Doctor Chang rewrote the prescription, the three of them ran over panting.
The old scholar didn't hesitate. He plopped down on the empty little chair next to him and fanned himself with his hands. "This money... I'm afraid I won't be able to spend it all in my life... This is the first time in my life that I've seen someone so determined to challenge a mule... Can you really beat it?"
As he spoke, he picked up the teapot from the table and drank it down in one gulp.
Doctor Chang said "Hey".
I don’t know where this familiar person came from!
He caught a glimpse of Chen Chunxing's mischievous smile, so he just sat there calmly, waiting to see what kind of show would be performed today.
Chen Chunxing echoed in agreement, staring at Nanny Chen without blinking. "Yes, how can a human bother with an animal? If it were me, I would turn around and leave without giving it a chance to kick me in the back."
“…”
She really didn't pay attention to herself just now.
Nanny Chen's chest heaved violently, and she felt a surge of foul air rising to her throat, making her feel uncomfortable. She slammed the table hard.
"You daring and treacherous slave! I will definitely take you to the government office today..."
As the foul air is exhaled, the whole body feels relaxed.
It seemed as if even the anger in my heart had dissipated a lot.
Nanny Chen was so surprised that she didn't even bother to think about the harsh words she had just finished saying. She just stood there with her mouth open, lost in thought.
"Huh..." Doctor Chang suddenly sat up straight. Zhixia followed him and looked at Nanny Chen, covering her mouth in surprise.
The accompanying maid turned her head suspiciously and let go of Nanny Chen's arm in fear: "Nanny, your face! Why... why did it turn purple!"
It's really scary.
The old student took only one look and didn't dare to look again. He pushed Doctor Chang away with his buttocks, lay down on the table, picked up the pen and began to write the petition.
"We've already settled the payment. If you want to...look for someone else at night, don't look for me."
Chen Chunxing watched from the side and nodded continuously.
She had met this man at the gate of the county government office and had heard a little about his deeds. Now she saw with her own eyes that he was indeed a very talented writer. The petition he wrote was so well written that it could be entered into the annual outstanding essay awards... but it was so convoluted that not a single word in it was useful.
The old student stole a glance at Chen Chunxing and muttered, "Every wrong has its perpetrators. If you want to blame someone, blame the person holding the knife, never the knife maker."
Chen Chunxing laughed.
Another smart guy...
Thinking of the boys at home, she became interested. While watching the old student write a petition against her, she asked enthusiastically, "Does the old man live near the county government office?"
The old scholar replied cautiously, "How could I be so lucky? I can only make a living in the city."
Chen Chunxing's question was rather erratic, rambling here and there: "From my perspective, sir, you look old enough to enjoy the company of your grandchildren, right?"
The old student twisted his buttocks, feeling very uncomfortable, and said the same thing: "How can I be so lucky..."
Chen Chunxing was talking and laughing, but then he changed the subject and said something cold and ruthless: "Since you have no luck, why don't you work harder?"
The old student looked up blankly.
Facing Nanny Chen's screams, she leaned over the table and whispered, "Would you be interested in moving? My village is in need of a teacher. You know, I'm rich...our whole village will be rich."
The old student's eyes sparkled with brilliance.
There's no village in the North that dares to call itself wealthy...
Over there.
After scolding the maid, Nanny Chen went to the well in disbelief. When she saw the water, she was so scared that she almost fell in!
Her whole face was red and purple, her lips were black, and she looked like a devil!
"how so……"
Nanny Chen searched her whole body but couldn't find anything wrong. Instead, she felt that all her old ailments had left her at that moment, and she felt as relaxed as if she were twenty years younger.
"Oh my, Ma'am, why does it look like you've been poisoned?" Chen Chunxing covered her lips, pretending to be surprised.
Doctor Chang glanced at her and curled his lips. Even a fool could see that, but she insisted on saying something. No one knew what she was up to.
"Come here, I'll show you."
Faced with life and death, Nanny Chen didn't care about anything else. She hurried over and stretched out her hand for Doctor Chang to check her pulse.
"Doctor, what poison have I taken?"
Doctor Chang glanced at Chen Chunxing obscurely, grinned strangely, shook his head and said nothing.
This girl is so bad!
Chen Chunxing was still pretending: "Do I even need to ask? Her face has turned purple, it must be poisonous! Who did Mammy offend to suffer such a cruel fate..."
Nanny Chen was as sad as if she had lost her examiner.
Who did she offend?
That’s too much!
Anyone who can work in the palace and leave alive must have a bad hand.
Not to mention those far away, the one standing right in front of her! But she just couldn't suspect Chen Chunxing. This girl had never lived in the mansion at all. As for the food in the mansion... it was just radish and cabbage all day long. Nanny Chen didn't touch a single bite, and she always took the maids out to cook.
Think about it this way.
Nanny Chen's expression turned serious, and she had already placed her suspicions on the Duke's Mansion...
But the most important thing right now is not to investigate, but to detoxify!
"Doctor, look at this poison. Can you cure it? I can pay any price!"
Doctor Chang is very vague.
He was a genuinely kind doctor and had never done anything to deceive anyone. But that old woman clearly had a grudge against Chun Yatou, so it didn't seem unreasonable to trick her, right?
"This poison is quite powerful. I still need to think it over. Come back tomorrow." Doctor Chang pretended to give Nanny Chen an acupuncture injection, but he did not forget to remind her, "I will suppress the poison for you first. When you go back, fast, move less, drink plenty of water, and remember not to use any drugs indiscriminately. If the poison is triggered again... well, you don't need to come to me anymore."
Nanny Chen was at a loss and could only nod.
Such a purple face, who wouldn’t be scared of this thing?
The maidservant who accompanied her had to keep her head down even when supporting her, for fear that she would have nightmares at night if she looked at it too much.
Wait until people leave.
Chen Chunxing winked at Doctor Chang: "Aren't you afraid that she'll go back and find another doctor? Then her lies will be exposed."
"When did I lie?" Doctor Chang refused to be fooled. He pointed at Chen Chunxing and said, "You little girl, when did you realize that the old woman was suffering from a disease of affluence?"
