Kou Jiming tumbled and crawled down from the third floor. Before he even reached the front door, he saw his daughter and her friends coming in. He ran over in a panic, and the seven-foot-tall man's voice was filled with tears: "Daughter! How are you?"
Ji Changying and Jiang Fengshi were both almost dumbfounded.
Kou Yunyi saw his father's expression immediately fade away, and he helped Kou Jiming stand firmly, saying softly, "I'm fine, don't worry, Dad."
Kou Jiming looked up and down, wiped away the tears that were about to flow out: "My dear, I'm glad you're okay, I'm glad you're okay!"
Kou Yunyi smiled sweetly at her father and said, "I have to thank Miss Ji a lot. If it weren't for her, I might have died under the horse's hooves today."
Kou Jiming then turned around and patted Ji Changying's shoulder vigorously with his palm as big as a palm fan: "Niece! I cannot thank you enough for your kindness! From now on, your uncle Kou will protect you!"
Ji Changying rolled her eyes at the slap: "If it were an ordinary person, you would have knocked them down with that kind of strength!"
Jiang Fengshi's shoulders kept shaking, and it was obvious that he was having some difficulty enduring it.
Kou Yunyi looked at his father angrily: "I think there seems to be an adult injured over there. Dad, do you want to go and take a look?"
Kou Jiming then remembered the important matter and his face changed. "Right, right, right, I have to go over and take a look. You guys can go to the private room I just booked and ask them to serve you a new table. Just order whatever you want, it's all on me!"
After saying that, he gave an order to the waiter and left in a hurry.
After sending Kou Jiming off, the waiter bowed and nodded attentively, looking at Ji Changying and the others: "Three girls, please go upstairs——"
When they got to the private room, Xiao Er quickly removed all the original tea and replaced it with new ones.
Jiang Fengshi couldn't wait to tell the waiter: "I want the roasted lamb, and the rest will be served upon their order!"
"Okay!"
The waiter shook the towel on his shoulder, then stood there and listed a series of dishes. Kou Yunyi and Ji Changying ordered four dishes and a soup, and the waiter then bowed and left.
Seeing the waiter leave, Kou Yunyi finally breathed a sigh of relief: "I was really scared just now! I can't imagine what kind of situation I would be in now if I was stepped on by that horse hoof."
Thinking of Cui Hao's end, Kou Yunyi was terrified.
Talking about what happened just now, Ji Changying stood up and stood at the window looking down.
Unexpectedly, the view here is just right, facing the street just now.
She saw several guards looking at Zhongli Zhou and Kou Jiming warily, preventing them from getting close to Cui Hao.
After the doctor came and gave some instructions, they quickly lifted the person onto the rack and followed the doctor to the infirmary for treatment.
Ji Changying shook her head: "I think that person is beyond saving."
Jiang Fengshi and Kou Yunyi's faces turned pale when they heard this.
It was the first time they had seen someone die in front of them.
"Okay! Let's stop talking about this so that we don't lose our appetite later." Jiang Fengshi quickly changed the subject and didn't want to continue talking about this.
Kou Yunyi agreed wholeheartedly: "Right, right, right, let's not talk about this anymore, let's talk about... Zhang Leyao! Where can I find pine, bamboo, and plum blossoms? I have to buy them quickly to compensate her, so she won't bite me like a mad dog when she sees me!"
Jiang Fengshi frowned: "Didn't her family specially bring pine, bamboo and plum from the south? It's hard to find here."
Kou Yunyi's shoulders slumped. "If I had known, I wouldn't have hurt her. After I got home yesterday, she and her mother came to my house and demanded compensation. My mother is very worried now."
This was quite interesting. Ji Changying raised her eyebrows and looked at her: "Did you fall on purpose?"
Kou Yunyi nodded.
Jiang Fengshi was also shocked: "You two usually just have a few arguments, why did you throw flowers at her for no reason?"
"I just can't stand her brainless look! The Crown Prince and the Princess clearly look down on her, yet she's still so eager to show off. It's obvious she's not up to the mark! That's the key point, but do you know why she always dislikes me? It's because she thinks I like the Crown Prince and that I'm her rival!"
"God knows I haven't even said a word to the prince! My head is full of love and affection, I'm really hopeless!"
Jiang Fengshi whispered: "Then you shouldn't... throw her flowers..."
Kou Yunyi pouted: "I regret it too!"
Ji Changying sighed. "Pine, bamboo, and plum trees are more suitable for survival in the south, both in terms of climate and soil. If you want to compensate her with the same flowers, I'm afraid you'll have to go south to find them. It will take until next spring to go back. But if she doesn't mind, you can take your time looking."
Kou Yunyi slammed his head on the table. "How is that possible?! They only gave us a month's deadline. If we don't see the things by then, they'll make my mother and I walk around Liangzhou City and apologize to them in front of everyone!"
Jiang Fengshi gasped: "You agreed?"
Kou Yunyi slumped his face on the table and replied with a look of despair, "It's only natural to pay back a debt. What else can I do if you don't agree?"
Ji Changying looked at her in disbelief: "Then you should at least buy yourselves a little more time, right?"
"You have no idea how difficult Madam Zhang and Zhang Leyao are! All we had to do was ask for more time, and they would sneer at us in front of the neighbors, saying we were poor and that we were going to default on our debts. They were going to make it so bad that my whole family couldn't face staying in Liangzhou anymore! After all, I was wrong about the flower dropping, and my mother didn't have the guts to argue with her, so she could only agree first and figure out a solution later."
Jiang Fengshi sighed, "I do have a plum tree, but it's a common wild plum. If I show it to them, I'm afraid it will be a laughing stock and useless."
She gave Kou Yunyi a helpless look.
Ji Changying didn't say anything. There were still many precious flowers in her space, but they were all growing wildly and had not been trimmed yet.
Even if you want to help, you need the right opportunity and excuse...
The waiter started serving the dishes at this time.
Every time a dish is served, the name of the dish is chanted: "A mouthful worth a thousand gold—roasted lamb!"
"Replenishing Qi and Blood—Chicken with Scallions and Vinegar!"
"Three fat and seven lean—Yunmeng meat!"
"Each flavor has its own unique flavor—the twenty-four flavor wontons!"
"Beauty and nourishment—Hibiscus Soup!"
After the waiter finished setting the dishes, he said, "The dishes are all here. Please enjoy your meal, ladies."
Without waiting for anyone's instructions, the waiter took the initiative to leave the place for them.
Jiang Fengshi's eyes were fixed when he saw these dishes. He swallowed and said, "I think it's more important for us to eat."
Kou Yunyi revived with full health: "Things will work out when the time comes. Let's eat!"
The three of them couldn't wait to pick up their chopsticks.
Roasted lamb is very similar to grilled lamb skewers in both taste and appearance, but the difference is that the quality of the lamb is indeed fresh, fragrant and oily, without any mutton or fishy smell.
Jiang Fengshi took a bite and his face was full of happiness.
"Why is this called a thousand gold coins?"
Isn't this just a delicious lamb kebab? It's definitely not worth a fortune, is it?
Jiang Fengshi looked at her with deep sorrow: "Didn't you notice any difference?"
"What?"
"Didn't you notice the cumin and pepper in this?"
"It would be strange if it didn't have pepper and cumin, right?"
