LIGHTNOVELONLINE Chapter 97 She became a sinner
In Liuye Alley, Xishui Street, Zhang Shanshan came back with sour plum soup. When she saw a servant standing at the door, she knew her brother was coming, so she immediately sped up.
"Third Miss!" The servant shouted respectfully when he saw her.
Zhang Shanshan said "Hmm", crossed the threshold, and shouted before she saw her brother.
"elder brother!"
Zhang Zijin came out of the main hall and looked at his sweating sister.
"Wash up first, and I'll take you out for dinner later."
"it is good!"
Zhang Shanshan did not wash up immediately, but handed the sour plum soup she had carried all the way to her brother.
"What is this?" Zhang Zijin asked.
"You'll know when you open it."
Zhang Zijin looked at the contents of the bamboo cup.
"Sour plum soup?"
"Well, I know you are here today and I brought this specially for you. Please try it."
Zhang Zijin happened to be a little thirsty, so he took a sip of sour plum soup and let out a surprised "Eh" sound.
"It tastes good, right?" Zhang Shanshan looked at her brother with a smile and asked.
Zhang Zijin nodded.
"where did you buy it?"
Zhang Shanshan deliberately made a riddle.
"I'm going to wash up first. We'll talk about this later."
Zhang Zijin glanced at his sister who was leaving, and took another sip of sour plum soup. Aniang and Zhen'er should like it very much. They can buy some to take home tomorrow.
At the same time, Mao Zijun from the Xie family listened to Jiang Minghong’s story, thought for a moment and said, “I’m sending this letter!”
Jiang Minghong stood up and saluted Mao Zijun solemnly.
"Thank you, Brother Zijun. Now that you have repaid my life-saving grace, we are settled."
Mao Zijun nodded, looked at Jiang Minghong and asked, "What is your relationship with Xie Yuan?"
He didn't expect that he would be interested in this matter, and Jiang Minghong didn't lie to him.
"He is my brother-in-law."
Brother-in-law! Hello brother-in-law! If Jiang Minghong helps him intercede, maybe Xie Yuan won't accept his money.
"Your brother-in-law said that I already owe him one hundred and ten taels for the medicine, accommodation and food expenses."
Mao Zijun rubbed his hands and said, "I'm a little tight lately. Can you put in a nice word for me and ask him to charge me less."
A dark light quickly flashed in Jiang Minghong's eyes and he said: "My brother-in-law received it for a cheap price. You must know what kind of poison you have been infected with even if I don't tell you.
Detoxifying herbs are very expensive, plus the gold sore medicine you smeared on your body in the past few days and the medicine you drank, the total cost is at least fifty taels.
My brother-in-law is a civil servant. Do you think that a civil servant should give you a job every day, cooking and washing for you? It’s not too much to charge you a little money. Besides, my brother-in-law takes you in, and you are in great danger. No one knows about you. Those enemies will not come here, so charging you one hundred and ten taels is not too much. "
From what Jiang Minghong said, it didn't seem like much, but he had no money! Let alone one hundred and ten taels, he didn't even have ten taels in his body.
Mao Zijun was so understanding. From his expression, you could tell that he probably didn’t have that much money. Jiang Minghong changed his mind slightly and said as if he was thinking about you; “If you don’t have any money, you can write an IOU and pay it back later.” It’s the same, the reputation of the Mao family is still trustworthy.”
I'm afraid he won't be able to pay it back after that. His family knows about his family affairs, and their Mao family are not good at making a living. In addition, they have so many children, so they don't have so much money to help him pay off his debts.
"If you really have no money, you can also help your brother-in-law." Jiang Minghong suggested while looking at the person in front of him. .
Mao Zijun's eyes suddenly lit up, yes! Why didn't he think of that!
"Thank you, brother Minghong."
Jiang Minghong smiled slightly, saying that he was harmless to both humans and animals.
"You're welcome, brother Zijun, have a good rest and I'll see you another day."
"it is good!"
At the same time, Xie Yuan carried Jiang Mingyue back to Zaolin Hutong.
Jiang Mingyue felt Xie Yuan slow down and asked, "Are you home?"
Xie Yuan said "Hmm" and protected Jiang Mingyue with one hand to prevent her from falling. He pushed open the courtyard door with the other hand and walked in with her on his back.
When the three of them met, the two siblings were a little surprised.
"Sister, what's wrong with you?"
"Why are you here?"
The two asked in unison.
"I have a question, sir, so you came here?" Jiang Minghong said casually.
How come it came out of the backyard? Although Jiang Mingyue was a little confused, she was too uncomfortable right now and didn't have the energy to think so much.
"Sister, what's wrong with you?" Jiang Minghong asked again worriedly.
Jiang Mingyue smiled weakly at her younger brother: "It's nothing, my lower abdomen hurts a little."
Jiang Minghong understood instantly. He followed the two of them to the main hall and asked, "Did you have something cold?"
As expected of a biological brother, he understands her.
"Drank a few cold drinks."
"You should keep your mouth shut from now on! I'll make you some brown sugar water."
Jiang Mingyue said 'Oh'.
Xie Yuan carefully placed Jiang Mingyue on the bed and said warmly: "Lie back first!"
Jiang Mingyue nodded meekly.
She huddled up quietly, looking so thin. At this moment, Jiang Mingyue was like a wounded little beast, so well-behaved and clever that it made people feel pity for her.
Xie Yuan looked away and walked quickly into the bedroom. After a few breaths, he walked out with a silver needle.
Jiang Mingyue looked at the long needle in his hand and subconsciously shrank her neck.
"Do you really want to pierce it?"
The soft and waxy voice is a bit floating.
Xie Yuan said 'hmm' and squatted down at her feet.
"I'm in so much pain, and you still prick me!"
There was a little grievance in his soft tone.
Xie Yuan's hand holding the silver needle stopped, his heart softened, and when he spoke again, his voice was softer.
"I promise you it won't hurt, and you will feel much better immediately after the prick."
Jiang Mingyue said 'oh' and asked, "Zana?"
"Sanyinjiao."
"That seat?"
"Above the ankle."
Jiang Mingyue nodded and discussed with the man: "Can you let me go back and take a shower first, and then you can prick me? I sweated a lot today, and my body is sticky and uncomfortable."
"Washing after piercing."
Jiang Mingyue pursed her lips and said pitifully, "I want to wash it now."
Jiang Minghong came in with brown sugar water. Seeing his sister's eyes turning red, he asked with aggrieved face: "What's wrong?"
Jiang Mingyue looked at her brother for help: "Brother Xie wants to stab me, but he won't let me take a shower."
Xie Yuan: "..."
Suddenly I felt like I had become a villain.
Jiang Minghong glanced at the silver needle in Xie Yuan's hand, walked to his sister in a few steps, and handed her the brown sugar water.
"Drink the water first."
Jiang Mingyue drank the water obediently and looked at her brother for help.
Jiang Minghong did not disappoint his sister after all.
"Let's go home."
He helped his sister up, turned to look at Xie Yuan and said, "Give me some time, she is afraid of needles and pain."
Xie Yuan nodded. If he disagreed, the little woman might really cry.
Jiang Mingyue was led out by her younger brother for a few steps, then looked back at the man: "Brother Xie, don't be angry."
Her voice was soft, with a little bit of nasal squeamishness, and she looked at him pitifully. No matter how angry she was in her heart, she was gone, not to mention that he was not angry at all. Xie Yuan said softly.
