Chapter 3 Where did it come from
“The thing is very simple. Since your two fools have robbed other people’s farmland, occupied their daughters, and also snatched some refugees as his private soldiers, then these things , You just need to return them all," the boy said with a relaxed and serious look.
"Give it back? Give it back to whom?" Ms. Li became nervous and asked first.
"Of course it will be returned to my brother Qing," the boy replied.
This one belongs to Brother Qing, and those who didn’t know it thought he was a gentleman! But then again, was this legendary miracle doctor a lady or a gentleman?
"Hehehe..." Mrs. Li covered her mouth and laughed, "Boy, don't blame me for not reminding you, not to mention whether my 14th son really seizes other people's fertile land, and his daughter and the refugees are his own private property. Even if there are soldiers, this is a blessing for untouchables like them.
In this world, if you want to live well, you must either be a noble, or you must simply sell yourself and become a slave of a wealthy family without status. , and without the protection of the nobles, you can only wait to be beaten, kidnapped, or even killed like a piece of grass. There is a saying that "the punishment is not good for the doctor, and the law is not good for the common people." These days, you will die. It’s no big deal for common people.”
The boy fell silent. He understood why Mr. Li could say these words so arrogantly: It is indeed true. In today's world, wars are so frequent. People die every day either because of wars or due to epidemics. Those corpses are piled up in the mess. The piles on the posts are like hills, and the officials have no control over the lives of these common people, nor do they want to.
Seeing the boy lowering his eyes and thinking deeply, Mrs. Li looked proud again, and immediately made a sympathetic gesture: "Young Master, it's not that we are reluctant to take these things as reward, but that your mistress simply cannot afford it. Not only is it unaffordable, it may also lead to death!”
After a pause, he then said, "Do you think this will work? If your master can really cure my family's illness, how about our Zheng family offering hundreds of pieces of silk and thousands of gold baht as a reward?"
Mrs. Li smiled brightly, looking at the boy's handsome face and was even a little dazzled. Unexpectedly, the boy squinted his eyes and smiled, then suddenly put on a serious face and said: "No, my master just wants to Just treat that money like dirt. If you also think that your Zheng Shilang is a piece of shit, then... forget about it! "
Is this true? What is a shit? The corner of Li's mouth twitched, and she squinted at the old lady's expression. Seeing that her face was as serious as water, she secretly sighed that this old lady was really well-educated.
Seeing that the boy was about to walk into the house, a group of women behind him rushed forward in panic. The old lady paused for a long time, then she lowered her face and apologized with a smile: "Young gentleman, please don't listen to this woman. "Your master's virtues and virtues are beyond comparison with those of ordinary people like us, so please be noble and don't argue with this woman."
After saying that, he glared at Mrs. Li, making her look aggrieved and frightened, and she didn't dare to say anything more.
"It all depends on your master's wishes. I will give you the deeds of whatever fertile land, refugees and women the 14th Lang has seized." The old lady promised with a sincere face, and hurriedly called a confidant beside her. Tell something close to your ear.
"Ajia..." Mrs. Li is still a little unwilling. She is just a low-level country doctor. She doesn't know how good her medical skills are. If she can be invited to treat the son of a wealthy family, she is very considerate of her. How can there be any disease that he hasn't seen yet? To put forward such a generous offer is obviously not to seek medical treatment, but to take this opportunity to rob someone.
Madam Zheng didn't know and didn't want to pay attention to Mrs. Li's inner slander. Under her orders, the group of people rushed towards the night.
…
The boy ignored these women, stepped across the threshold, and slammed the door tightly. This disdainful and arrogant look seemed to be to prevent thieves.
The women who were thought to be thieves all trembled and became bloated.
"Ajia, look..." Mrs. Li couldn't help but speak out again, thinking that Mrs. Zheng's wife was not being held up by others wherever she walked, and those common people wanted to lick their toes. How could they have suffered this? This kind of anger.
"If you don't speak, no one will think you are mute!" Mrs. Zheng stood up straight with a cane and said angrily, "Why do you still have such a short memory even after being slapped!"
Mrs. Li choked and blushed.
Unlike the women outside who dared not move in the cold wind, it was as warm as mid-spring inside the house. The boy bought some charcoal and lit a fire to keep the "young man" warm. He saw him holding a pen and falling on the screen. There, his eyes were staring blankly, so he came over to take a look curiously.
"Brother Qing, are you painting? What do you want to paint?" the boy asked.
"I don't know what I want to draw. Some things seem to burst out of my mind, but I don't know what they are." The boy replied. "Then what did Brother Qing remember or see in his mind?" The boy tried to ask.
The young man thought about it attentively, but it seemed that even recalling it was an extremely laborious and painful thing. Soon he frowned, and big beads of sweat fell on his forehead. Under the candlelight, he could see that his skin was so white that it was almost transparent. The veins on his forehead were exposed.
The boy quickly stopped him and said nervously and distressedly: "Brother Qing, don't think about it. If you can't remember, don't think about anything. I'll tell you whatever you want to know. If I don't know, I'll find a way." I’ll tell you later.”
The young man's expression slowly returned to calmness, and his black eyes gradually calmed down. He sat there with his dark hair hanging down, his posture upright, his white clothes as white as snow, and his complexion as jade, making him look like a sheep. Fat and beautiful jade.
"Fenghuang, tell me, my name is Xiao Jinyu, also known as Changqing. This is the name my mother gave me. We came here from Yecheng, the capital of Qi, a month ago, right?" he asked suddenly.
"Yes, yes." The boy said repeatedly.
"I'm a little unclear about what happened recently. Please tell me more." The young man said again.
The boy's heart became heavy. He really didn't want to repeat that fact to aggravate the pain in the heart of the "boy" or "girl". He was originally here to repay his kindness, and finally found his benefactor half a year ago. She became one of her subordinates and became nominal siblings with the benefactor's daughter, the girl. However, just three months ago, the benefactor passed away for no reason, leaving only their sister. The two brothers depended on each other. In order to hide their identity from the public, and to comply with the benefactor's last words before his death, the girl began to dress up as a husband and act outside, relying on the little medical skills she learned from her mother to save the world and support herself.
However, just two months ago, the two of them were chased by a group of wolf-like officers and soldiers. On the way to escape, he accidentally fell down the hillside with the girl. The back of the girl's head hit a rock. When she woke up, she felt nothing. I can't remember, and I become a little stupid.
She didn't know who she was, where she came from, and where she was going, but she could only remember the medical skills that her benefactor taught her before his death, even more so.
In order to avoid the pursuit of "those people", they fled from Yecheng, the capital of Qi, to this Xingyang County, and found this paradise-like place to live anonymously. However, they did not expect that a plague broke out in this village, and she stayed to treat the villagers. It only took ten days to cure all the villagers' diseases. That is, a month ago, the two of them met the dandy Zheng Shilang of the Zheng family while visiting the Peach Blossom Valley.
Zheng Shilang, relying on his status as a wealthy son of Xingyang County, has often bullied the common people here. That day, he happened to see the girl's appearance for some reason. He saw through the girl's female body at a glance and wanted to take her as his concubine.
Of course, what happened next was that he beat Zheng Shilang severely. It was because of this beating that Zheng Shilang, in order to retaliate, sent someone to find out where they lived and robbed them while they were away. They took away all their belongings, including some of the property left behind by their benefactor and the personal deeds of their servants.
Zheng Shilang's cruel words were that they would not be able to survive in Xingyang County unless the two of them were willing to surrender and become his concubines and slaves. How could he endure such humiliation? Looking for an opportunity to settle accounts with Zheng Shilang and take back what belongs to them, but the girl said that the Zheng family in Xingyang is a wealthy family, and their Zheng family has the final say in the entire Xingyang County. Head-on confrontation is not a good way, but it is best The best way is to ask him to hand it over himself, or to ask someone from the Zheng family to hand it over for him.
So they set up this plan and waited for Zheng Shilang to take the initiative to send it to their door, and that's what happened today.
Having said this, the boy said angrily: "Brother Qing, that Shishiro Zheng is really hateful. When Mrs. Zheng sends him here later, we must take revenge on him."
The young man's expression did not change, he was still confused and calm.
"You said, my mother passed away three months ago. How did she die?" Suddenly, she asked again.
The boy fell silent. Just when he didn't know how to answer, he heard a commotion outside the door.
The boy stood up vigilantly and said, "They should have been sent here. Brother Qing, I'll get them in. Then, let's think about how to avenge this revenge. I'll tell you after I've avenged this revenge." Your other things.”
After that, he ran out with a bright smile on his face.
