Chapter 19 I like the front door of Ah Shu’s house, the sunlight shines through the sycamore leaves…
At the gate of the house, sunlight poured in through the gaps between the sycamore leaves.
According to the diagnosis of famous doctors, Pei Yixue's disease cannot be cured.
"I didn't expect you to be so..." Chang Feng hesitated and patted Pei Yixue on the shoulder, "But if you pay more attention, you can still live longer."
Xie Yushu pursed his lips and looked at Pei Yixue, "There are many places in the world we haven't been to, and there are many miracle doctors we haven't seen. There must be a way to treat your disease."
"Well, I believe Ah Shu." Pei Yixue tilted her head, staring at the person beside her with smiling eyes.
Chang Feng curled his lips, flicked his sleeves and got on the carriage first, "Let's go back quickly. I felt uncomfortable sleeping in that shabby inn last night."
"Let's go back first." Xie Yushu looked away uncomfortably to avoid meeting Pei Yixue's gaze.
"Okay." Pei Yixue responded obediently, stepped onto the horse stool, and got into the carriage with Xie Yushu.
The carriage moved forward, and the wheels creaked as they turned on the road.
The car body was shaking, and the three people inside were sitting on each side.
Pei Yixue plays a sickly person leaning against the car body with his eyes closed. Xie Yushu on the left looks worried, while Chang Feng on the right keeps glancing away, and no one knows what he is thinking.
After an unknown amount of time, Chang Feng inadvertently glanced at Pei Yixue who was resting with his eyes closed and broke the silence.
"I've been away for these days and heard some rumors that the Pei family, relying on the Yan family's financial support, seems to want to drag down other pharmacies. The pharmacies are generally having a hard time, which has caused your medicinal materials to be unsalable for quite some time."
Pei Yixue dozed off, thinking, is this guy trying to use this to suppress and belittle him again? Unfortunately, this matter is completely under his control so far.
"Don't worry."
The corner of Chang Feng's mouth twitched. He was the son of the richest man in Daqing country, and he was sitting here naked. With a wave of his hand, he would not be afraid even if several more Yan's family came, let alone the Yan family.
After all, they have lived under the same roof for so long, and he is not a heartless and ungrateful person. Pei Yixue should know this very well.
Since he brought it up first, he must want to help.
But it was a matter of life and death, what was Pei Yixue doing? Was he still there peacefully basking in the sun and absorbing the essence of the sun and the moon?
Given Chang Feng's usual relationship with Pei Yixue, Chang Feng would definitely not take the initiative to ask for help.
Chang Feng sighed, "Oh, don't worry. The Yan family is just a mere family, and they still make you look bad." Then he folded his hands in front of his chest and sat up straight, "If you beg me, I will buy all the herbs in your hand. Do you want to try it?"
Ask? Pei Yixue smiled secretly. In his two lives, when would he need to ask for help? Only others asked for help from him.
Besides, if he was really so destitute that he needed to ask for help, who else could he ask for help, but his love rival? He would have to be kicked in the head by a donkey to do this.
"Don't worry." Pei Yixue was too lazy to pay attention to this person. He opened his eyes and looked at Xie Yushuo. Recalling the warm and clean soapberry scent on his body, he felt a little greedy.
If you want to get close to people, you have to find a reason.
He propped himself up with some difficulty and said weakly, "Ashu, I feel a little tired, but it's uncomfortable for me to lean on this chariot."
As he spoke, he moved towards Xie Yushu.
"What are you doing?" Chang Feng shouted angrily, raising his hand to block his way, "Is it uncomfortable to lean on the chariot? My shoulders are broad, you can lean on them as much as you want!"
Pei Yixue leaned forward slightly and stopped halfway. After being stopped by Chang Feng, he did not move anymore. He just looked up at Xie Yushuo, and seeing that the other party did not say yes or no, he shrank back pitifully into the corner behind him.
The pitiful and lonely eyes, coupled with the exquisite and beautiful facial features, the "weak" body and the sick air lingering between the brows, interweave into a beautiful and sad picture, full of a sense of brokenness.
In Xie Yushu's eyes, it was like a feather constantly teasing his heart, making him unable to help but want to agree to any request of Pei Yixue.
Chang Feng's expression cracked for a moment, and his fists clenched so hard that they made a creaking sound.
He grabbed Pei Yixue's wrist and pulled her to his side, almost gritting his teeth and said, "I already said the chariot is uncomfortable, I'll give you mine."
Pei Yixue was caught off guard and staggered. She quickly used her other hand to steady her body so as not to fall... and fall into Chang Feng's arms.
"Let go." He stared at Chang Feng coldly. Chang Feng seemed unaware of his displeasure and even wanted to press his head.
"Don't you want to rely on someone? Don't you want to?"
Pei Yixue slapped away the big hand that reached out to him with a bit of anger.
He said that after the big villain in the original book came back, he couldn't expect to do anything smoothly. He had obviously returned to the capital, so why did he run back to this remote countryside?
Pei Yixue barely suppressed his brows that were about to twitch, glanced at Xie Yushu beside him, and then, in a serious tone, like someone who would die soon, frankly expressed his little thoughts.
"I like Ah Shu, and I just want to stick with Ah Shu. I don't think it's a bad intention. Master Chang, don't you want to expose this?" He glanced at his wrist, which was a little red from being grabbed, "Now that Ah Shu knows, can you let go?"
Chang Feng didn't expect Pei Yixue to expose himself. He let go of his hand woodenly and looked at Xie Yushuo, looking like a dead pig that was not afraid of boiling water.
The other person seemed to have completely not heard what Pei Yixue had just said. He turned sideways and stared at the curtain of the sedan chair that was swaying gently with the car body, as if all their actions and conversations had nothing to do with him.
But the fingers clasped tightly at his sides and the ears that were red as blood clearly showed that Xie Yushu was not as calm as he appeared.
This was the first time Pei Yixue said something similar to a confession to Xie Yushu in front of outsiders.
The moment Xie Yushu heard Pei Yixue say "I like it" and "I want to stick with you", he almost forgot to breathe. What followed was an inexplicable throbbing in his chest and his heart pounding wildly.
He couldn't handle the matter, so he pretended to be deaf and blind and knew nothing.
Pei Yixue retreated into his corner again. As the effect of the cheating drug he had taken before the consultation had not yet completely worn off, after struggling with Chang Feng for several times, he began to lose strength and his face looked even more sick.
The faint gasp broke the briefly awkward atmosphere in the car.
"Hey, stop playing tricks!" Chang Feng pulled Pei Yixue's arm twice, "With that little strength just now, no matter how weak you are, you shouldn't be like this."
Xie Yushu's thoughts, which were daydreaming, were suddenly pulled back to reality. He turned around and saw Pei Yixue, who looked like a dead man, and was almost scared to death.
"How could this happen?" He moved to Pei Yixue's side, "It's clear that he just took medicine to suppress it."
"I'm fine. I'll be fine in a while." Pei Yixue was really feeling uncomfortable at the moment. He could probably guess that his complexion must look very bad at the moment, which scared Xie Yushuo.
But Xie Yushu didn't think he was fine and could get better on his own, so he immediately decided: "Let's go find a miracle doctor."
Lifting the curtain of the sedan chair, Xie Yushu instructed the coachman in front, "We will not be returning to Daohua Village for the time being. Please take the fork in the road ahead to Liming Pharmacy."
The coachman responded and the carriage slowly turned on the road and headed towards the Dawn Pharmacy.
Pei Yixue was forced to hold back his words of persuasion. In that case, he might as well pretend to the end.
The carriage continued to move forward with a creaking sound. Pei Yixue leaned on Xie Yushu's shoulder with his eyes closed. In addition to feeling satisfied, he suddenly felt a little guilty, but only a little.
"Ah..." The carriage stopped, and the coachman said, "Sir, the road ahead is blocked by a crowd, and the carriage cannot move forward."
Chang Feng opened the curtain of the sedan chair and saw a group of onlookers gathered in front of the Liming Pharmacy.
"What's going on?" Xie Yushu asked in surprise. He lifted Pei Yixue from his shoulders and said, "Wait here for me. I'll go take a look."
"Ashu." Pei Yixue stretched out his hand to grab the person, but Xie Yushu moved too quickly and he didn't have time to hear his words. He jumped off the carriage and squeezed into the crowd, leaving him and Chang Feng looking at each other in bewilderment.
Chang Feng jumped out of the car, hesitantly stretched out his hand, and said to him: "Can I help you?"
"Well, thank you very much, Mr. Chang." Pei Yixue took the man's hand and got off the carriage slowly, just like a master.
How could the son of the richest man not see his intention to tease him? He clenched his back teeth tightly, but still suppressed his anger for the time being.
Probably because they were afraid that he would die accidentally.
"...Oh, my Lord, this is seventy-five coins, I can't use it!"
As I got closer to the crowd, the voice of the pharmacy manager reached my ears.
"Please make way. Someone is in urgent need of a doctor. Please make way." Chang Feng pushed people around but couldn't make a gap for a long time.
Some people were even more impatient and pushed Chang Feng: "Are you annoying? Why are you seeing a doctor? Haven't you heard that Liming Pharmacy sells fake medicine? The police are here to search for stolen goods. Why are you still coming here to see a doctor?"
Chang Feng's face turned dark. He didn't hear a word the man said. He only knew that given his status, the man in front of him actually dared to push him and talk to him like that.
He took out two large bags of silver, shook them in his hands, and said jokingly to Pei Yixue beside him: "Today, I will let you see with your own eyes what it means that money makes the world go round."
Throwing the broken silver in the opposite direction of Liming Pharmacy, Chang Feng shouted, "Do you want money? Go pick it up. Whoever picks it up will own it!"
With the sound of silver grains falling to the ground, a few sparse people took the lead and ran, and the rest followed like a flood.
It only took a few moments for the entrance of Liming Pharmacy to go from being crowded with people to being deserted.
Xie Yushu, who was hiding in the crowd, then emerged, hurried over here, and held Pei Yixue steadily.
"Why don't you stay in the car?" Xie Yushu glanced at Chang Feng who was still spending money lavishly, "Liming Pharmacy may not be able to accept patients today. We can only go to the other pharmacy first."
Pei Yixue tilted his head and said softly, "No need, Ah Shu, I feel much better now." He took Xie Yushu closer to the entrance of Liming Pharmacy, "Why are these officials smashing people's things for no reason?"
"They said they were searching for fake drugs." Xie Yushu pursed his thin lips, his tone full of indignation.
Anyone with a discerning eye could see that the police were clearly causing trouble on purpose.
"Hey, hey, hey, sir. This hundred-year-old ginseng of mine is worth eighty gold coins. It must be true." The steward held an abacus in his hand, and every time the officer smashed something, he added up the amount. It seemed that he was stopping the officer from destroying things, but in fact he was directing his firepower towards the valuable things.
In my spare time, I can also find time to make eye contact with Pei Yixue.
If the police came to smash the store, they must have obtained the permission of the county magistrate. The relationship between Liming Pharmacy and the current government office is not good. The county magistrate is not easy to deal with openly, but he has many shady tricks to trip up the pharmacy behind the scenes.
This is the reason why the people should not fight against the officials. Just take the various inspections as an example. No one can handle one every day.
But the manager knew clearly that there was no need to wait too long for these current issues, as they could be settled at the pharmacy tomorrow or at dawn the day after tomorrow.
He had to keep this account clear and make it known to the entire Xitang County.
