Watching Ning Chunlin's excited back, Jiang Yuwei shook her head helplessly. This man had indeed transformed into a young master of the royal mansion, but he wasn't exactly presentable.
At this moment, Wang Ma also watched Ning Chunlin's receding figure with a face full of excitement, feeling extremely emotional.
Jiang Yuwei didn't want to meddle in other people's business; she needed to get to her shop early to open for business. So she turned to the simpleton beside her and said:
"You don't need to go to the shop today. Stay here and help Wang Ma and Yun Qing look after the house."
Upon hearing this, the fool quickly shook his head and said:
"No! I have to go to the shop to feed Little Black!"
Jiang Yuwei said helplessly:
"Whatever, just leave if you want."
After saying that, Jiang Yuwei pulled Liu aside and whispered:
"Don't trust these two completely. Keep a close eye on them at home."
Upon hearing this, Liu nodded nervously.
After giving the instructions, Jiang Yuwei led everyone towards Moxiangzhai.
To my surprise, as soon as I arrived at North Street, I saw a crowd gathered in front of me, busy carrying water to put out the fire.
Jiang Yuwei was shocked to see this and quickly grabbed someone to ask:
"What happened?"
The man turned around and glanced at Jiang Yuwei, then hurriedly said:
"You must be the manager of Moxianzhai! What are you still doing here! Your shop is on fire, why aren't you putting it out!"
Upon hearing this, Jiang Yuwei was startled and quickly told Ning Huaizhi to stop the oxcart outside and wait, while she led Ning Zhao and the others to squeeze into the crowd.
When the fool heard that the shop was on fire, he became even more anxious. At this moment, he only hoped that Xiao Hei would be alright, so he didn't care about anything else and pushed his way through the crowd to rush towards Moxianzhai.
When the fool arrived at the Ink Fragrance Studio, he rushed straight into the sea of fire, and no one could stop him.
Seeing this, Jiang Yuwei had no choice but to direct everyone to help fetch water and put out the fire.
The fool rushed into the backyard alone, suffering several burns from the raging flames. But he seemed oblivious to the pain, his only thought being to reach the backyard and rescue Little Black.
When he finally arrived at the backyard, he saw Xiao Hei lying motionless on the ground. The fool didn't care about anything else and went straight to unleash Xiao Hei's leash.
The more anxious he became, the more chaotic things got. Just as the fool finally managed to untie Xiao Hei's chain with red eyes and was about to run out with Xiao Hei in his arms, he was suddenly hit in the lower back by a horizontal beam on the roof.
Little Black was tightly protected beneath the fool, muttering incessantly:
"Little Black, I'm here to save you..."
"Little Black, you mustn't die..."
"Little Black, Little Black..."
Soon, the fool lost consciousness due to the thick smoke. By then, Jiang Yuwei and the others had already put out the fire.
Upon entering, they saw the mentally challenged man unconscious, pinned under a horizontal beam. They quickly called for help to move the beam away.
Jiang Yuwei then grabbed a burly man and begged him to help take the idiot to Huichuntang.
The big man knew that saving lives was the priority, so without saying a word, he picked up the fool and ran towards Huichuntang.
Jiang Yuwei picked up Xiao Hei, who was already lifeless lying on the ground, sighed helplessly, and quickly handed Xiao Hei to Ning Zhao, instructing him:
"Zhao'er, go find a place to bury Xiao Hei."
After saying that, Jiang Yuwei didn't care about Ning Zhao and Ning Wan, who were still standing there with red eyes, and hurriedly followed the big man to Huichuntang.
Now that he knows the fool's true identity as the prince's heir, if anything happens to the fool, the people of the prince's mansion will definitely not let him off the hook.
So, taking advantage of everyone's inattention, Jiang Yuwei first used the spiritual spring water to clean the fool's mouth and nose, and then secretly fed him a cup of spiritual spring water.
Seeing that the simpleton was unconscious, Doctor Lin quickly fetched silver needles and began acupuncture. He then wrote a prescription. Seeing the severity of the simpleton's injuries, Jiang Yuwei said to Doctor Lin:
"Dr. Lin, may I borrow your backyard to brew some medicine for the fool and feed it to him?"
Upon hearing this, Dr. Lin nodded hurriedly and said:
"Alright, hurry up and get the medicine."
Jiang Yuwei grabbed the medicine and hurried to the backyard to decoct it for the fool with the spiritual spring water. She then fetched a wooden bucket, filled a basin with the spiritual spring water, and handed it to the shop assistant, instructing him:
"Please use this water to wash the wounds on the person inside and then bandage them for me."
Seeing this, the waiter took the water, nodded, and went inside to bandage the fool.
A short while later, Ning Zhao and Ning Huaizhi arrived at Huichuntang to see the idiot. Jiang Yuwei sighed helplessly.
"If the idiot doesn't wake up this time, we'll be in big trouble. After all, the idiot's status is different..."
Ning Huaizhi frowned and pondered after hearing this:
"Let nature take its course. If all else fails, then we'll kill you to silence you. I will absolutely not let anything happen to you."
Seeing this, Jiang Yuwei quickly stepped forward and covered Ning Huaizhi's mouth, then looked around warily and whispered:
“Huaizhi, be careful what you say, for walls have ears.”
Ning Zhao went into the inner room alone to see his foolish master.
Jiang Yuwei glanced at Ning Huaizhi with a complicated expression and said:
"Huaizhi, since you're already here, you can stay here and help the idiot with his acupuncture. You can also ask Doctor Lin to give you another acupuncture treatment. I need to go to Moxianzhai to check on things; I'm worried about leaving Daya and the others there alone."
Ning Huaizhi nodded upon hearing this, and looked at Jiang Yuwei with concern, saying:
"Yuwei, natural disasters and man-made calamities are unavoidable, so don't think too much about it. If the shop is gone, we can earn it back."
Jiang Yuwei patted Ning Huaizhi on the shoulder and then called out into the inner room:
"Zhao'er, hurry up and come out to brew medicine for your foolish master. After you've finished brewing it, feed it to him first."
Upon hearing Jiang Yuwei's words, Ning Zhao hurriedly came out of the inner room, sat down on a small stool in the backyard, picked up a palm-leaf fan, and began to help the mentally challenged man decoct medicine.
Jiang Yuwei hurriedly left Huichuntang and rushed to Moxianzhai. Fortunately, the fire was discovered early, and everyone worked together to put it out, preventing it from affecting the nearby shops. Otherwise, even if she took out all the money she had, it wouldn't be enough to compensate them.
As Jiang Yuwei walked towards Moxiangzhai, she looked at the shop in front of her and felt a pang of pain in her heart. This shop was the result of her hard work and painstaking efforts to build it up bit by bit.
Now that everything has been burned to the ground, Jiang Yuwei is not only heartbroken about the goods in the shop, but also about everyone's hard work and dedication over the past few days.
Jiang Yuwei thought that now that the shop had been burned down and all the paper had been sold, she might as well stop doing business for the time being. She would just set up a stall during the market days and consider making a comeback once the situation stabilized.
I need to go to the Sun family mansion these next few days to ask Master Sun for help in selling the shop quickly so I can get the money back to the members who joined earlier.
Thinking this, Jiang Yuwei stepped into the shop, but as soon as her left foot stepped in, she felt something under her foot. Jiang Yuwei quickly squatted down to check.
There was a dagger on the ground, and I felt like I had seen it somewhere before.
