Chapter 370: How Many Coincidences Are There in the World?
ng to help treat the little tiger, she immediately stood up and nodded repeatedly."Okay, I'll go with you."She didn't believe in Daohu, the village woman who performed rituals for the gods of rice. Bu...In a short while, Li Muhai indeed came running back, looking both startled and frightened, with two bruises on his face.
Fang Jinshi did sympathize with Li Yuanchun and the Li family's experience of being cheated out of their silver, she agreed to help them. Although she had her own motives, it didn't mean that she couldn't accomplish things without the Li family.
On the other hand, it was the Li family who constantly needed her help. Old man Li Muhai acted as if it were only natural, relentlessly questioning her about everything she did along the way.
And urged.
This made Fang Jinshu very unhappy. She wasn't a servant of the Li family, was Li Muhai this old man a little confused about the situation
Before going out, they had agreed that she would have the final say. But he went on and on asking questions, probing this and that, clearly not trusting her.
When Li Muhai ran back, his face was full of anger, glaring at Fang Jinxiu.
"You! You little brat, how could you be so heartless You knew all along that going up to him directly would get you beaten, yet you made me go!"
Hearing this, Zongyu's face darkened. No one was allowed to bully his wife.
Fang Jinshu reached out to stop Zong Yu, calming her man down. She could handle this small situation herself.
"Uncle Li, it's your own fault for not using your brain. Why blame others"
"You!" Li Muhai didn't expect Fang Jinshu to suddenly speak so rudely. Before, at his house, she had been quite friendly and approachable. How could she change her face like that
"Hmph, what's wrong with me"
Am I wrong
"You think with such a large family, the Zhao's need so many guards at their door Are they just putting on a show for passersby"
"We have no business dealings with them, and we're not even acquaintances. It would be impossible for the guards to let us in easily."
"You told me to go talk to them and say that you want to do business with Zhao's family, didn't you" Li Muhai said unconvincedly.
"How is this not business dealings Or are you deliberately saying this to trick me into taking this beating!"
Fan Jinshu snorted coldly and remained silent. You can't carve anything into rotten wood.
The Zhao family has brought their business to this level, how could they just meet anyone who wants to do business This isn't a free park where anyone can enter whenever they want.
“You’d best just stay put and wait, alright If you want your money back, don’t ask any more questions.”
If she hadn't taken pity on Li Yuanchun and considered that Li Daniu's wife wasn't a bad person, she would have immediately dumped Li Muhai and stopped caring about their family's mess.
"Here it is." Zong Yu suddenly spoke up, reminding him. A carriage drove over and finally stopped at the Zhao family's gate.
A slender young woman got out of the carriage, supported by a maid. She walked with unsteady steps and coughed occasionally.
She always wore a veil, likely not out of fear of being seen, as it covered her mouth and nose rather tightly. It was probably used to protect her from the wind, as this young lady was frail and prone to illness with even the slightest neglect.
"It seems like this is Zhao family's Fifth Miss."
Zong Yu asked Fang Jinxiu, "What are your plans"
Fang Jinshi smiled and took out a wooden stick from behind her, “This isn't ordinary wood. You go to the windward place and ignite it, letting the smoke waft towards Miss Wu.”
Fang Jinshu acknowledged that this method was immoral, but she assured him she would definitely treat Miss Wu well afterwards.
Who made this Zhao family's gate so difficult to enter She could only resort to such a desperate measure.
Zhao Xingzhou's subordinates brought two poor peasants who were equally sick but had no money to see a doctor. Both of them were close to death if they didn't receive treatment within a few days.
But the illnesses were completely different, one was a cough and cold, the other a broken leg with gangrene, one an internal illness, the other an extremely severe external injury.
He wanted to test Fang Jinshu's true abilities. Was he lucky to have detoxified his subordinates at the clinic, or was he truly skilled
This is important to him.
Just as they found Fang Jinshui's whereabouts, they discovered she was lurking at her own doorstep. Her younger sister had just returned from the temple and fainted at the front door.
The commoners were in a panicked uproar, when Fang Jinxiu suddenly emerged, claiming she had a way to cure the Fifth Miss.
Zhao Xingzhou watched as Fang Jinshu and the two people beside her were ushered into the house by their own steward with urgency.
"Master Jiu, the Fifth Miss fainted. How could this be such a coincidence"
Zhao Xingzhou narrowed his eyes, a bloodthirsty light flickering within them, "There are no so many coincidences in the world. Let's go and see what she wants when she comes to my house."ed to protect her from the wind, as this young lady was frail and prone to illness with even the slightest neglect."It seems like this is Zhao family's Fifth Miss."Zong Yu asked Fang Jinxiu, "What are...
