Chapter 1727: Han Ruoshi, You Can Also ......
"'Medicine' materials, we went to a few 'medicine' shops in the city, and something strange happened. β
Brother Chen asked, "What's the strange thing?"
Xiao Zhong said: "I went to two 'medicine' shops, and the people from the two 'medicine' shops looked at our prescription and said that there were other 'medicine' materials on the prescription, but there were only a few 'medicines' we really wanted, and there were none." β
"Oh?"
"I came back and asked a few other brothers, and they went to the 'drugstore' in another place, and they were all in the same situation. β
ββ¦β¦β
"The owners of those 'medicine' shops all said that someone suddenly came to buy 'medicine' last night, and at a high price, they just bought all the 'medicines' in their inventory, and there was nothing left. β
This time, Brother Chen stopped talking, and he looked at me with a frown.
My brow furrowed.
The other 'medicine' materials in the 'medicine' shop are still in circulation, but the few 'medicine' materials I need are gone, and someone suddenly came to buy them last night.
Is there such a coincidence?
I asked, "So, did they say who bought it?"
The little bell scratched the back of his head and said, "I didn't ask." Does it matter?"
ββ¦β¦β
Since I didn't ask, forget it, and now I go back and ask, it's easy to have an accident.
Seeing that my eyebrows were wrinkled out a few times, the old and dignified Brother Chen came over and said, "Is someone doing this with ulterior motives?"
I glanced up at him and said calmly, "It should be." At this time, the city 'gates' are closed, and no one buys the 'medicine' materials for sale, and these 'medicines' are not commonly used injury 'medicines', and no one will buy so many under normal circumstances, and all the 'medicine' materials in Huai'an City are bought. β
"So, what the hell is going on?"
ββ¦β¦β
I didn't speak, but I figured it out in my heart.
Han Ruoshi.
If I'm not mistaken, it's her.
I was robbed by these people because it happened yesterday evening, and in the evening, someone cleaned up all the 'medicines' that can be used to stabilize the fetus in Huai'an City, of course, this is her handiwork, after all, she must have always held a grudge against me for being pregnant, but I am by Pei Yuanxiu's side, and she has no way to start. But now that I have been kidnapped, injured, and even abused, it is common for me to have abortions, and if, as it is now, these people do not embarrass me, but my pulse is unstable, and it is easy to miscarry, she buys all the 'medicine' materials on the market, and it will cut off a way for the fetus in my womb to survive.
Thinking of this, I couldn't help but grit my teeth - as she said, I was messing with the right person.
Seeing me gritting my teeth, those people all looked at each other, and finally even a straightforward and reckless person like Xiao Zhong came back to his senses a little: "Someone is trying to harm youβthe child in the belly?"
I glanced up at him and didn't speak.
He tore off the blanket on his shoulders and threw it to the ground, and scolded hatefully: "This is too vicious, aren't you, you are a pregnant woman, and there is such a thing without conscience?!"
I couldn't help but smile wryly.
Although these people are called "Diao Min" and "mobs", and they live a life of swords and swords every day, in fact, their minds are not so complicated, and it is probably more difficult for them to imagine that in some places, the struggle between 'women' and 'women' is more thrilling and vicious than their open fights.
Brother Chen said, "What can we do for you?"
I looked up at him, thought for a moment, and said, "Right now, the best thing to do is to exchange me for your family as soon as possible, so that we can be safe." β
Xiao Zhong hurriedly said, "This is the best." β
Brother Chen frowned: "But didn't you say before that if we want to negotiate, we need to be very cautious?" I also thought about it last night, this matter is indeed very troublesome, even if we use you now to exchange our family members, the subordinates surnamed Zhou are too many, if they want to fight with us, we will still suffer." β
Several other young men with strong blood immediately shouted: "Fight hard, who is afraid of them?"
"That is, we are not afraid of death!"
"Kill one by one!"
Hearing these people's impulsive words, Brother Chen frowned, and I also sighed and said, "Don't be impulsive. You are not afraid of death, but you have forgotten that you are here to save your family. If you act impulsively, it is better not to save it, and to save it is just to die with you, is it worth it?"
ββ¦β¦β
When they heard me say this, they fell silent.
After a moment of unspeakable silence, the little bell gritted his teeth and said, "Then what now? We have already sent the letter, what should we do next? Also, your stomach...... You're going to be fine, are you?"
I put my hand on my stomach.
It hurts, it's not too intense, after all, these people don't really abuse me, but a dull pain from time to time makes me unable to ignore it, if something really goes wrong, I don't doubt that Pei Yuanxiu will go crazy and kill everyone here, and even - the people of Huai'an City and Yangzhou, he will not let go.
So, no matter how much I don't want this child, I still can't just let it go.
It's just that now, the two biggest problems are in front of me - the first is how to get Zhou Chengyin and his family members to obediently release these people's families and ensure the safety of these people, and the second is how to 'get' the fetal 'medicine' I need in a short time.
As for Han Ruoshi's small tricks, I can't take care of her for the time being......
As soon as I thought about it, my mind suddenly became a 'stirring' spirit.
The people around me were all looking at me intently, but when they saw that my face suddenly changed, they immediately asked, "What's wrong with you?"
"Did you think of something?"
β¦β¦
I didn't speak, just looked at the people.
Let Zhou Chengyin and them obediently release people...... And 'get' the fetal 'medicine' I want......
It seems, not contradictory.
After all, Pei Yuanxiu's attention to this child actually exceeds these people, and for him, Huai'an only needs to be in Zhou Chengyin's hands.
Even, Han Ruoshi, I didn't plan to take care of her, but it seems that I can also do it......
My face seemed to light up, and they became more and more inexplicable, and the big brother Chen leaned down to look at me and said, "Yan-Miss Yan? What's wrong with you? Did you think of something?"
I looked up at him and said, "Brother Chen, please find me a clean piece of paper, I still need pen and ink." β
He was stunned, he didn't expect me to ask for this as soon as I opened my mouth.
Xiao Zhong on the side frowned and said, "How can we have this thing? Didn't you also write with charcoal strips before?"
I shook my head: "I'm going to write a letter to someone in Huai'an Mansion, and I must make sure he recognizes my handwriting." Writing in charcoal strips is not easy to read. β
"Do you want to write letters again, do you want to send them to those people again?"
When they heard this, their heads seemed to be bigger, and Xiao Zhong muttered, "How can it be so easy to send a letter." You know when I went to deliver the letter before, those people were like wolves, as if they were going to devour me. It took me a long time to get rid of them, and to send them again, I'm afraidβ"
Brother Chen interrupted him and said to me, "It's okay to send a letter, but what are you going to do with this letter?"
I said, "This letter is asking them for some fetal 'medicine'. β
At this moment, everyone fell silent, and everyone's faces 'revealed' a trace of more or less disdain.
I also understand that I am really just a hostage to them, and it is obviously a bit ridiculous to point fingers at them and ask them to risk my 'medicine' for my 'medicine'.
I continued: "At the same time, you can also let them release your family. β
As soon as these words came out, they were all shocked.
Xiao Zhong said, "What did you say, let our family go?"
I nodded.
"W-how is this possible? Didn't you ask them for something?"
I smiled faintly: "But what I asked them for was not an ordinary thing, but a fetal 'medicine'." β
ββ¦β¦β
They were all stunned, but Brother Chen was the first to react: "By the way, they value the child in your belly very much!"
I nodded, and then said, "Just like I'm just an ordinary hostage, if it were a normal situation, they would find a way to delay the time or find our whereabouts, but I'm a pregnant woman, and my pulse is unstable, and I am in danger of miscarriage at any time." I wrote to them to ask for 'medicine' for the fetus, and as soon as they read the letter, they knew that the fetus in my womb must have moved, and in this case, time is the child's life, and they did not dare to make any other moves, let alone play other 'tricks', or even detain the person who delivered the letter. Because if you are detained, the 'medicine' will not reach me, and if you do not release your family, then my fetus may be miscarried during this time. β
In the final analysis, the more Pei Yuanxiu values this child, the more Zhou Chengyin wants to please him, the greater the chance of success of this plan.
The people were dumbfounded.
After I finished speaking, for a long time, no one spoke again, but their eyes became a little awe-struck as they looked at me.
Xiao Zhong subconsciously muttered, "This-are you really a pregnant woman?"
ββ¦β¦β
Hearing him say this, I couldn't help but choke in my throat, coughed lightly, and lowered my head.
As soon as Brother Chen saw me like this, he immediately stretched out his hand and pushed him, saying, "Don't talk so much nonsense." In that case, then you hurry out and find pen and ink and clean paper. β
Although Xiao Zhong was a little embarrassed, he went immediately.
Brother Chen looked back at me again: "However, I think there is still a bit of a problem. β
"What's the problem?"
"You can't find those 'medicines' in the city, you write to them and ask them, where do they find them?"
I laughed faintly.
As soon as he saw me laughing, Brother Chen was stunned for a moment, and I said, "You're right. So in addition to writing letters, there is another important thing that I would like you to do. β
He immediately said, "What's the matter?"
