Pei Jiao could ride a horse faster alone, so she set off first after getting the location Xu Ning told her. When Xu Ning and his carriage arrived, Fang Wenhai's cousin Fang Wenshan and the people he brought were lying on the ground wailing.
"Sister Pei, what's happening?" Xu Ning saw the people on the ground with bruised faces and noses, and immediately realized that they had offended Pei Jiao.
"Hehe, some of them ate shit, and I helped them beat it out! After all, how can people eat shit? Eating shit will turn you into a dog, don't you think?" Pei Jiao said, and kicked Fang Wenshan.
Fang Wenshan screamed in pain, unable to open his eyes, but afraid that Pei Jiao would kill him, he endured the pain and nodded desperately.
Fang Wenhai ran down as soon as the carriage stopped, picking up the water bag in his hand.
Fang Wenshan heard footsteps, opened his eyes and saw that it was his cousin, and for a moment he was confused.
Unfortunately, Fang Wenhai didn't even glance at Fang Wenshan. He was only worried about what happened to his wife!
"Susu, Susu, wake up." Fang Wenhai gave water to his wife whose lips were cracked and chapped, but there was no response after he called for a long time. He was so anxious that sweat broke out on his forehead.
"Miss Pei! Miss Pei! Is there a doctor?" Pei Jiao and Xu Ning had not yet gotten into the carriage to see the situation. When they heard Fang Wenhai's anxious voice, they all turned their eyes to Xiao Tianquan who had also gotten off the carriage.
Xiao Tianquan: ...
"She's exhausted from the long journey and hasn't eaten for several days, so she can't wake up. Just feed her rice porridge for a few days and she'll be fine." Hearing that his wife just fainted from hunger, Fang Wenhai breathed a sigh of relief and hurriedly thanked Xiao Tianquan with gratitude.
"If Mr. Fang is worried, he can make some nourishing soup for Madam. But she should eat some liquid food for the next two days. It's better to hold off on eating any greasy or hard food." Fang Wenhai's wife was in good health. She just had no strength after being hungry for a few days. After all, she had money, so drinking some tonic would help her recover faster.
"Okay, thank you Master Xiao." Fang Wenhai bowed to Xiao Tianquan. Fang Wenhai wanted to stop him but it was too late. He really suffered.
However, when Fang Wenhai took out the silver again, he refused to accept it no matter what.
Xu Ning found it very novel to watch the two grown men "fighting" each other, and he even pulled Pei Jiao to watch while eating melon seeds.
Xiao Tianquan and Fang Wenhai: ...
In the end, the two of them took a step back, and Fang Wenhai directly gave the money to Pei Jiao, saying it was Xiao Tianquan's "food expenses."
Pei Jiao shook the money bag with a smile on her face, "No problem, as long as you have a normal mind, who can resist money? Master Fang, don't you agree?"
Fang Wenhai didn't dare to respond, for fear of offending Xiao Tianquan. After all, he had just treated his wife. He could only smile awkwardly, neither nodding nor shaking his head.
Xiao Tianquan was speechless. Pei Jiao was implying something to him again.
"How are they going to deal with it?" Seeing that they had nothing to say, Xu Ning pointed at Fang Wenshan and others who were still groaning on the ground.
"Take them back to North City. Miss Pei, I'll give you another fifty taels a day. Could you please escort these people to North City as well?"
Pei Jiao and Xu Ning exchanged glances and finally agreed.
Now they were only a few days away from North City. If they could earn a few hundred more taels, they could have a good New Year! It was a good deal no matter how you calculated it!
In the next few days, Pei Jiao rarely gave Xiao Tianquan a good face. Firstly, the medical fee that he refused to collect was in her hands, and secondly, they were about to arrive in North City and would soon be able to part ways with this stinky Taoist priest.
"Gee! Gee! The carriage in front please move aside!" Pei Jiao was riding on her horse and looked towards the source of the sound. When she saw the familiar sign, her face turned dark.
