Chapter 10 The Angered Xiao Family



Zhang Zhonghui glanced at Shopkeeper Su with a smug look on his face, then said, "This fifty-year-old Ganoderma lucidum is extremely valuable. I'll offer you five hundred taels. What do you think, young friend?"

"Five hundred taels?!"

Xiao Qingluo never thought that this fifty-year-old Ganoderma lucidum of his could be sold for so much money!

This amount of money is enough for an ordinary woman to live a worry-free life for half her life.

It was really beyond her expectation that Zhang Zhonghui would spend so much money on it.

Xiao Qingluo nodded and said, "Okay."

Seeing Xiao Qingluo nod, Zhang Zhonghui smiled and looked at the shopkeeper Su, saying, "Xiao Su, I don't have much money with me. Please give this young man five hundred taels first."

Shopkeeper Su, with a gloomy face, went to get five silver notes with a face value of one hundred taels each and handed them to Xiao Qingluo: "Miss, this is a five hundred tael silver note. It can be exchanged for in any bank in the entire Dagan Dynasty. Please keep it."

Xiao Qingluo put the banknote away and bowed to Zhang Zhonghui and Shopkeeper Su, saying, "Thank you both very much. I'll be leaving now. Bye!"

"See you again if we have the chance, little sister," Xiao Qingluo rubbed Zhang Xueyi's little head.

Doctor Zhang said sweetly, "Take care, sister."

"Bye-Bye?"

Zhang Zhonghui and Shopkeeper Su looked at each other, completely confused as to what it meant.

But looking at Xiao Qingluo's decisive and impetuous back, Zhang Zhonghui smiled and nodded.

This woman's behavior is completely different from other women.

Instead, he looks like a man.

However, Zhang Zhonghui felt a little regretful.

Obviously, Xiao Qingluo knows medicine.

At least you have a deep understanding of medicinal materials.

Otherwise, it would be impossible to immediately tell the difference between the artificially cultivated Ganoderma lucidum and the wild Ganoderma lucidum.

"Forget it, we'll talk about it when we meet again."

Zhang Zhonghui took Zhang Xueyi's hand and walked into the inner hall.

In the inner hall, the young man had already sat down at the table again, drinking tea.

Zhang Zhonghui and Zhang Xueyi approached the young man and bowed, saying, "Greetings to His Highness the Sixth Prince."

If Xiao Qingluo were here, he would definitely exclaim in surprise, "The Sixth Prince of the Dagan Dynasty, Lu Changgeng!"

The young man nodded and said, "No need to be polite, please take a seat."

Only then did Zhang Zhonghui and Zhang Xueyi straighten up.

Zhang Zhonghui sat down next to Lu Changgeng, touched his leg, and sighed, "Alas, Your Highness, the muscles in your legs are becoming increasingly atrophied. Even if I give you acupuncture, it can only delay the condition, not restore it. If this continues, it will only get worse."

The two servants behind Lu Changgeng all showed sad expressions when they heard this.

Lu Changgeng's expression was extremely calm. He said, "It's okay. I already knew this. It can delay the disease. Go ahead and give me the acupuncture."

"yes."

Doctor Zhang opened the medicine box, opened the needle bag and placed it on the table.

Zhang Zhonghui then began to give Lu Changgeng acupuncture.

As the needle pierced his muscle, Lu Changgeng showed no expression.

But a hint of desolation flashed across Lu Changgeng's eyes: "I still don't feel anything at all..."

On the street.

Xiao Qingluo first went to the money shop to exchange twenty taels of copper coins and silver, then found a bun stall and ordered a few buns, a plate of pickles, and a bowl of porridge.

While eating the buns, Xiao Qingluo began to think in his mind.

"I was a little too reckless today."

"I didn't even ask about the market price of good medicinal herbs, I just took a fifty-year-old Ganoderma lucidum and sold it."

"Even though I sold it for five hundred taels of silver, this tree attracts the wind. If people knew about this, I'm afraid it would bring me unnecessary trouble."

"I'd better be more cautious in the future."

Xiao Qingluo finished the last bun in two bites and said to the stall owner, "Young man, please pay the bill."

The stall owner came over and said with a smile, "Miss, the total is fifteen cents."

Xiao Qingluo counted out fifteen copper coins and placed them on the table. He asked, "Young man, do you know where the best blacksmith shop in our city is?"

The stall owner said kindly, "Girl, the best blacksmith in our city is over on West Street. You can find him by asking over there."

"Okay, thank you, bro."

Xiao Qingluo said this and headed straight for West City.

Xiao family.

Xiao Yuanhe had a gloomy face and felt uneasy!

Yu Huilan couldn't help but curl her lips and said, "Master, you've said this eight times. We've sent out all the servants and maids in the mansion to look for her and they haven't found her for such a long time. If that bitch really escapes, what will happen to our daughter?"

Having said that, Yu Huilan hurriedly wiped away her tears!

Xiao Yuanhe became even more furious: "This ugly thing actually dared to run away! If I catch her, I'll starve her to death!"

Although he was furious, he couldn't care less about himself when Yu Huilan started crying. He hurried to comfort her, "My dear, don't worry. In Yanzhou City, no one we want to catch can escape. That little bitch will definitely not get away!"

Hearing this, Yu Huilan cried even louder: "Master, I'm not afraid that the little bitch will run away, I'm afraid that our Xiao family will be destroyed by that little bitch!"

Yu Huilan sobbed, "The Emperor granted this marriage because the treasury was depleted, and he wanted to legitimately collect money from our Xiao family through marriage. Now if we let that little bitch get away, Ruo Lianke will have to marry that crippled Sixth Prince. Wouldn't that be like being a widow?"

"Your Majesty, this move is truly extraordinary. If we don't marry our daughter off, we're defying his order. If we marry our daughter off, even if she's a royal relative, we'll have to contribute to the national treasury!"

"If that bastard Xiao Qingluo runs away, Ruo Lian will have to marry him. Doesn't that mean she's making a losing deal?"

Xiao Yuanhe listened to Yu Huilan's complaints. How could she not understand what Yu Huilan was saying?

Xiao Yuanhe sighed heavily and said, "Don't worry, I will definitely capture Xiao Qingluo! Our daughter is going to marry the eldest prince and become the queen in the future, the mother of the country. I will never let her marry a cripple who can't provide her with any benefits!"

As Xiao Yuanhe spoke, a cold look flashed in his eyes. He said to the servants, "Spread the word. When we find that little bitch, tie her up and throw her into the woodshed!"

Xiao Qingluo came out of the blacksmith shop with a pair of silver needles in his hand!

It has to be said that this blacksmith is the best skilled craftsman in Yanzhou City.

He already had many ready-made molds in his shop.

She just paid some labor fees and then paid the money herself, and it took her less than two quarters of an hour to make a set of silver needles.

"Let's go home now. I guess that scumbag dad and the green tea mother and daughter are probably going crazy!"

Xiao Qingluo smiled and looked around.

He actually discovered several servants of the Xiao family, who were searching everywhere and questioning everyone one by one.

Xiao Qingluo knew what was going on, so he found a gap where no one noticed him and entered an alley.

After making many twists and turns, he was not discovered by any servant of the Xiao family.

However, just when she was about to walk towards the Xiao family.

She suddenly heard two footsteps behind her!
