Chapter 368 Speaking Directly
Jian Pingping smiled and shook his head: "Since I promised to give it to Doctor Murong, I will naturally not regret it. I am just worried that if Doctor Murong takes it back and uses it for a long time, the facial cream will not work well."
Doctor Murong looked at her carefully for a moment before nodding with satisfaction: "Give me another box. Your small box won't take long."
Jian Pingping went to get the paper bag patiently. Doctor Murong handed her the three boxes Jian Pingping had just given him: "Pack this together."
At this time, another guest came and wanted Jian Pingping to receive him. Doctor Murong glared at him and said, "Didn't you see you were packing something for me?"
Jian Pingping quickly asked the waiter to take the man aside, handed the bag to Doctor Murong, and smiled and told him to come back if he needed anything.
These were almost farewell words.
Doctor Murong took the bag but didn't leave immediately. He looked around before saying, "If you don't want to laugh, don't open your mouth so wide. It'll cause wrinkles."
The smile on Jian Pingping's face was almost gone. Doctor Murong was a little too direct in his words.
Doctor Murong shook his head and turned to leave.
Jian Pingping really couldn't understand what he was thinking. Doctor Murong looked about the same age as her father, so why was there such a big difference?
Mr. Jian is an easy-going person. He is always polite when speaking to everyone and is especially close to his two children. He does not favor boys over girls at all. In fact, because Jian Pingping is the first child, he treats Jian Pingping better than Jian Anan.
Jian Pingping's relationship with Jian's father is like that of friends.
But Doctor Murong, who looked about the same age as Jian's father, had very different ideas and spoke harshly. If he wasn't a doctor and had just helped her, she really didn't want to receive him.
If Jane's father and mother were still alive, she would still be the pampered girl in her parents' hands, and she could turn around and leave, but now she is the support of her younger brother. Even if her parents left them a lot of wealth, they cannot just live off it.
When Jiang Yue stepped into the shop, she saw Jian Pingping in deep thought.
"What are you thinking about?"
Jian Pingping came back to her senses. She tucked a strand of hair that fell by her ear behind her ear and said, "You were a little dazed just now. Why are you back?"
Jiang Yue thought Jian Pingping was too tired and did not ask any further questions.
A waiter brought Jiang Yue a cup of tea, and the others hid aside.
"Forget it, let's go inside and talk." Jiang Yue looked around and saw that there were still customers in the shop. She left the maid behind and walked into the shop with Jian Pingping.
The two of them sat down, and Jian Pingping leaned against the cushion and let out a long sigh.
Jiang Yue looked at her apologetically: "You're in the shop every day, it's too tiring, why don't we find another shopkeeper?"
"No, I have nothing to do at home anyway, so I might as well be in the shop."
Not long after the Chinese New Year, Jian Pingping found a private school to send Jian Anan to. There were maids and servants at home, so she was not needed for any work. She was bored sitting alone, so she decided to come to the shop and chat with the shop assistants when she had nothing to do.
"After all, you are the prefect's niece. He will probably be unhappy if he knows you are showing up here." Jiang Yue naturally recognized Zheng Yuang and the others, and knew their relationship.
"Uncle won't know, at least not recently. My cousins don't dare tell him what happened today."
Although Jiang Yue didn't have much contact with Zheng Yuang and Mei'er, Zheng Yuang was very afraid of his father and Mei'er was a relative staying with them. If they told what happened today, the prefect would ask about the details even for the sake of face.
Zheng Yuang and Mei'er were so resistant to her attitude, and just now, they didn't speak to her side.
If the two of them told her about opening a shop here, she would ask them face to face why they embarrassed her in front of outsiders.
Although this is a bit embarrassing, she knew after her parents passed away that there was no one to protect her and she could only protect herself.
Jiang Yue guessed something from her attitude and changed the subject: "I saw the girl who came to cause trouble today two days ago."
"When I arrived, it was almost dark. She was walking carefully, holding the face cream. She was dressed simply, and I thought she had saved up money for a long time to buy a box of face cream. I didn't expect that she was sent by someone to blackmail us."
Jiang Yue had only heard Manager Jiang talk about all the tricks in the business world before, and this was the first time she had witnessed it.
"Did you invite Doctor Murong today?" Jian Pingping suddenly remembered the somewhat strange Doctor Murong.
"It wasn't me, it was Mingzhu. She found out someone was causing trouble and asked someone to call a doctor. Unexpectedly, it was Doctor Murong who came and he exposed the other party's conspiracy." Jiang Yue is not the kind of person who would take credit for others' work.
"Although Doctor Murong's words are a bit harsh, he is still a very nice person." Jian Pingping had a good impression of Doctor Murong.
"I heard from my father that he was young and his medical skills were always questioned before. Later, his words became more and more harsh. This time he came to the capital. I heard that he was in the capital and his words offended people."
"Young?" Jian Pingping was a little surprised, but soon figured it out: "Doctors definitely become better as they get older. Doctor Murong is only in his thirties, so his medical skills will definitely get better and better in the future."
"How old do you think Doctor Murong is?" Jiang Yue looked at Jian Pingping in surprise.
"He's in his thirties and looks about the same as my father." Jian Pingping answered quickly.
"Hahaha," Jiang Yue laughed happily, "I thought so too when I first met Doctor Murong, but my father said he was only in his twenties, but he knew some disguise techniques and often disguised himself to look like he was in his thirties."
"In his twenties?" Jian Pingping was a little unconvinced: "I think Doctor Murong is about the same age as my father."
If his father were still alive, he would be 36 years old this year, but Doctor Murong looks like a man in his 30s.
"My father said that Doctor Murong was very handsome, but when he first started practicing medicine he was only seventeen years old. Many people didn't believe in his medical skills, so he deliberately dressed himself up to look thirty years old, and only then did people start coming to him for treatment."
These were unimportant things that Jiang Da Guanshi just mentioned casually at home, but Jiang Yue wrote them down.
Jian Pingping just nodded and didn't take it to heart.
No matter how old Dr. Murong is, since he helped her today, she will be grateful to him and treat him as an elder.
"Pingping, the facial cream given to Dr. Murong today is all paid for by the public." Jiang Yue reminded her.
"Okay." Jian Pingping nodded. This was something the two of them had agreed upon at the beginning. All favors exchanged in the shop would be considered public, but anything that was taken away as a gift would be recorded on their own account.
"Mingzhu is my savior. I have already recorded the things I gave her today."
