020 Ask for money
Feng Qingchen raised his head and examined the young man in front of him, scaring him so much that he grabbed the corner of his clothes tightly before he looked away.
Feng Qingchen shrugged indifferently, lowered his head, and continued to eat the snake soup, as if nothing had happened.
She didn't want to scare the little handsome boy.
In order to ease the atmosphere, Feng Qingchen said considerately: "Eat something first, we can talk about it after we finish eating."
Feng Qingchen felt sympathy for this young man from the bottom of his heart.
This young man had clear eyes and was definitely not a wicked person. The fact that he sent a snake to her after taking her money showed that he had a simple mind.
The occasional vigilance and fear in his eyes were like a deer walking out of a herd, filled with uneasiness and anticipation.
She saw the shadow of the former Feng Qingchen in this young man.
He was framed and ended up dead.
The difference is that the previous Feng Qingchen chose to die, but this young man tried hard to survive.
She doesn't mind helping anyone who dares to challenge fate. For her, it's just a matter of moving a knife, but for this young man, it can change his life.
Just like the dress that the Ninth Prince handed to her that day.
It's just a simple task, but it allows her to retain her remaining dignity.
In addition, Feng Qingchen expressed his deep disgust for this type of punishment that involves branding on the body.
The word "lowly" divides people into different classes.
This young man looked like a piece of beautiful jade, and Feng Qingchen couldn't see how he was cheap.
Of course, the most important point is that this young man is really suitable to stay in Feng Mansion.
Where can she find such a beautiful person who can pick her up for free?
The young man looked at Feng Qingchen with a hint of wariness and suspicion, but his stomach kept growling.
Although he was anxious about whether the brand on his body could be removed, seeing Feng Qingchen concentrating on eating, he could only wait.
He sat down and ate the steaming, delicious snake soup, but it was like chewing wax. He finished the food in his hand in a few bites and filled his stomach. Just as he was about to ask Feng Qingchen, he heard footsteps.
Is someone coming?
The boy froze and shrank back cautiously.
This was the defensiveness he unconsciously revealed when facing strangers.
Feng Qingchen stood up. Although he didn't know who the visitor was, anyone who dared to come to Feng Mansion at this time must be definitely not a simple person.
"Don't be afraid. You are no longer a pariah or a refugee. Now... well, you are my cousin. By the way, what's your name?"
"My last name is Zhou, you can call me Zhou Xing, young lady." The young man hesitated for a moment and said this name.
Knowing that this was a fake name, Feng Qingchen did not ask further questions: "Zhou Xing, remember, from now on, you are my cousin, Feng Qingchen, and you can call me sister from now on."
After saying this, he turned around and looked at the person who came.
I saw a young man in brocade clothes, his whole body emitting a soft glow, walking slowly towards me in the sunset.
"Mr. Su?" Feng Qingchen blinked.
This Mr. Su's radiance is really strong. He was probably in the morgue because his brother had an accident and he was in a bad mood.
Now this Young Master Su had swept away the depression and gloom seen during the day. His every move was filled with the elegance and luxury of a nobleman, and his radiance was so dazzling that people could not open their eyes.
"Ms. Feng, I'm sorry that Wenqing entered the backyard without permission." Su Wenqing nodded apologetically.
Actually, it’s not his fault.
In such a huge Feng Mansion, there is not even a single servant.
"It's okay. It's Qingchen's fault for not hosting guests well. I'm sorry for not welcoming you from far away." Feng Qingchen returned the greeting gracefully, with a hint of distance in her friendly tone.
Feeling Feng Qingchen's alienation, for some reason, a hint of bitterness and loss flashed in Su Wenqing's eyes.
Deep down in his heart, he really didn't like Feng Qingchen treating him as a guest, but who should Feng Qingchen treat him as?
Su Wenqing couldn't explain it clearly, he only knew that he didn't want to maintain such a distant relationship with Feng Qingchen and hoped that the two of them could be closer.
"Ms. Feng, Wenqing is here to apologize for what happened during the day, and to thank you for saving my life."
After saying this, he kowtowed solemnly.
Feng Qingchen was startled and quickly dodged: "Mr. Su, you are too serious. We have already made it clear what happened during the day. It was just a misunderstanding. As for the life-saving grace, the doctor saves people and only wants the money for the medicine. If Mr. Su doesn't mind, just pay the money directly."
She was extremely poor and didn't even have money for tomorrow's meal. Now that a fat sheep had been delivered to her door, she would have missed nothing if she didn't kill it.
Robbing Su Wenqing's wealth, and helping Feng Qingchen's poverty!
"Ah?" Su Wenqing thought he had heard it wrong and looked up at Feng Qingchen.
This girl asked me for money for medicine?
He, the great Master Su, came in person to apologize, but Feng Qingchen only wanted money.
For some reason, an unknown fire ignited in my heart, but I didn't know how to vent it.
Su Wenqing forgot that when he encountered such things in the past, he always dealt with them with money. In Su Wenqing's eyes, every person and thing has a price, the price just varies.
But today, Feng Qingchen acted like he only wanted money and wanted to cut off ties with him, which made Su Wenqing very angry.
"It doesn't matter if Mr. Su doesn't want to pay. It's just a small favor. You don't have to take it to heart." Feng Qingchen saw that the other party didn't want to pay, so he waved his hand generously.
She has always understood that the people should not fight against the officials, especially in this country.
From ancient times to the present, the aristocracy has had many privileges. Although she is also considered an aristocrat, she has no one to rely on and is worse than a commoner.
"No, how much do you want?" Su Wenqing suppressed the disappointment in his heart and looked at Feng Qingchen coldly.
Mr. Su was very angry and the consequences were serious.
"Just give me one thousand taels. I don't care." Feng Qingchen said generously. Of course, she saw the contempt and anger in Su Wenqing's eyes.
But so what?
In a corner where no one could see, Feng Qingchen's mouth corners slightly raised.
She had never thought of compromising and making friends with these noblemen.
Didn’t Su Wenqing say that she was unfaithful and unclean, and that she was filthy? Wouldn’t it be better for her to just step aside?
"Give her one thousand taels of gold." Su Wenqing waved to the servant behind him.
After saying this, he turned around and left without any more lingering feelings.
In Su Wenqing's eyes, Feng Qingchen is a shameless woman.
Su Wenqing ignored the rumors from the outside world and condescended to visit Feng Qingchen. Not only did Feng Qingchen not want to please him, but he actually put on such an attitude.
Damn woman!
You want money, right? I’ll give you 1,000 taels of gold.
Let you understand what an opportunity you missed!
To get close to me, Su Wenqing, it would cost at least one thousand taels of gold.
"You made him angry." Zhou Xing pointed at Su Wenqing's departing back and looked at Feng Qingchen in confusion.
He heard a lot about Feng Qingchen in the imperial city.
Shouldn't a woman like this seize the opportunity to turn things around by grabbing hold of Su Wenqing, a man like that? Why?
Feng Qingchen shook the banknote in his hand and said nonchalantly, "It doesn't matter. I don't plan to deal with him."
She is just a doctor. It is only natural for her to get paid for treating patients and saving lives. It is just a matter of how much.
Obviously, Su Wenqing is a generous person.
Feng Qingchen looked at the dilapidated Feng Mansion and nodded vigorously:
"Zhou Xing, take good care of yourself. I will help you remove that cheap name mark right away."
Now that she has money, Feng Mansion needs to be renovated. Zhou Xing is a good choice...
Make the best use of people! Feng Qingchen doesn't keep idle people.
"Really? That's great. Thank you Miss Feng, thank you Miss Feng. Miss Feng is so kind, Zhou Xing will definitely repay her with gratitude."
"No need to repay me with gratitude. Just clean up the things on the table." Feng Qingchen smiled sweetly and walked slowly into the room.
With money and servants, her new life should be good...
