Chapter 18: Giving You a Chance
An Yi got up and said with a blessing, "Yes." β
Wu Jing's expression was a little more cold: "Then do you know that he is currently relying on his family's supply, and he doesn't have the ability and way to sell it for you at a high price?" He can only take his own money and make up a good story for you? If you want him to help, why don't you just say you want to borrow money? What is the reason for such a desire to cover up? "If the person who did this was the original An Yi, it would be okay to think that the little girl was naΓ―ve and ignorant of the world, but now An Yi is different, it is completely a manifestation of deep scheming and scheming, clearly wanting to use Chen Zhishan's sympathy and liking to squeeze the maximum benefits, and also trying to clear it up, and wipe out all the feelings owed to others, which is really unacceptable.
An Yi's series of questions to Wu Jing made her heart "suddenly", but she was afraid that she would no longer like herself from now on, and would not teach herself medical skills, so she settled down and met Wu Jing's eyes generously, and said softly: "I know that even if I ask for silver, he will definitely try to find it for me, and even if I don't wait for me to speak, he will try his best to help me." But I don't want to do that, this golden lilac is worth a few taels of silver anyway, and it can be regarded as a mortgage for him to hold, so that he can redeem it in the future. This seems to be a bit unauthentic, but the more I owe him, the more I can't afford to pay it back. Auntie, you are an understanding person, you should be able to understand my thoughts. β
There is a kind of favor that you owe too much and you can't easily pay it off, and you can't always make a promise and pay it back for a lifetime. It seems that An Yi has understood Chen Zhishan's heart for her, and she understands what she wants to do and what path she wants to take in the future, so she takes this method to tactfully distance herself...... Wu Jing breathed a sigh of relief, she valued An Yi's rare talent and was very eager to accept An Yi as an apprentice, so she also valued An Yi's heart and conduct more, which made her a little more angry and angry, and now after listening to An Yi's explanation, she couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. Perhaps, this apprentice is still worth receiving?
An Yi saw that Wu Jing was angry, knowing that she understood what she meant, and while she was relieved, she was also worried that what she just said did not match her age and identity, which would cause Wu Jing's doubts. I wanted to change the topic to divert Wu Jing's attention, but I felt that in front of Wu Jing's sharp eyes, it was too wrong to say more, so I simply hung my head and didn't say a word.
Wu Jing made up her mind and asked, "I heard that your father borrowed money from Wang Hu's seal?" The jade pendant was also snatched by Wang Hu? β
An Yi nodded: "Yes, I heard that I can't get it back, my father rushed to the east of the city before I came, I don't know if I can get back the extra money." β
"Don't get your hopes up. How much is the difference between Maomao's medicine and money? Wu Jing glanced at the pen and paper on the table, and saw that the words on the paper were much better than before, the font was upright and sparse, and the edge was hidden inside.
Since it was Wu Jing who asked herself, An Yi also told the truth: "Antelope horns are too expensive, and they all say that if you know the pharmacists who supply the drug delivery shop, the price can be reduced by half." I wonder if my aunt has a solution? β
Wu Jing glanced at her and said, "It's better than you guys." In this way, I will find Maomao's medicine and bring it back to you later, and your pair of golden cloves will be mortgaged to me for the time being, so that others will not gossip after seeing it from Zhishan. "Since you don't want to have too much to do with it, let's just stay away.
That's for the best. An Yi gave a deep salute: "Thank you aunt for your help, the love I owed in the past has not been repaid, and now I have to rely on my aunt to help, I owe you too much, I don't know how to repay it?" β
Wu Jing said: "What if I say that I need a little girl by my side to help? She has to be able to write and draw, be coarse in medical science, be smart and courteous, keep her mouth shut, be able to accompany me into the deep mansion compound, be my good helper, and be beautiful and likable, so as not to disgust and dislike the noble ladies who ask me for a high price. It's not impossible for me to buy a little girl to teach, but it will take time, not a day's work. What do you think? "Don't you want to study medicine? She gave An Yi a chance. Take people with you to study and teach nearby, and when you are satisfied, you will formally accept disciples, and in the same way, you can regret it at any time.
Of course, I can't ask for it! An Yi suppressed the words that almost rushed out, and said happily: "I can't ask for it to share my aunt's worries, and let me inform the elders in the family, and I'll call my aunt back later." β
Wu Jing threw another piece of candy to tempt the An family: "As long as you are willing to come, the money owed by your family will be written off, and I will give you another two taels of silver every month for wages, including two meals in the morning and evening." "Even if he refuses to lose his face as an official, and he is reluctant to let his daughter show up to study medicine and help, the life and future of the son who was finally obtained is more important, right? She didn't believe that with the current state of Anjia, she would be able to withstand such temptation.
It was Chen Zhishan who sent the medicine, and he didn't dare to look at An Yi with his eyes down and a red face: "I didn't mean to let Master know about it, I ......" He walked outside and met Wu Jing, Wu Jing asked him where he was going, and then asked An Yi, and then she easily took out his words, and took the pair of golden cloves away without saying anything. At that time, Wu Jing's face was ugly, and he was not allowed to listen to what she and An Yi said, so he instinctively felt that Wu Jing was very unhappy and might have scolded An Yi.
An Yi took the medicine and said with a smile: "Auntie wants to help me." Didn't she ask you to bring the medicine? She also asked me to follow her to help in the future, and give me a tael of silver every month. β
"Really?" Chen Zhishan immediately became overjoyed and walked out with her: "Then hurry up and send the medicine back, and then talk to your uncle, they will definitely agree." β
When the two walked to the front yard, they saw Zhou Jingang's personal soldier Lu Zhi coming to stop them: "Miss An, my family always has an invite." β
An Yi had no choice but to go to see Zhou Jingang. Zhou Jingang leaned on the pillow and half-sat and talked to a young man in a green shirt, and when he saw An Yi entering, he couldn't wait to say, "Big niece, I heard that something happened to your family?" β
An Yi said: "Something happened, my brother is sick." β
Zhou Jingang said again: "How did I hear that your grandmother was injured?" What ancestral jade pendant in your house was snatched away? Your dad ...... him."
An Yi glanced at the smiling young man in green shirt on the side, and recognized that he was the person who persuaded him not to give Mrs. An an needle at the door of the pawnshop before, knowing that these things could not be hidden, she simply confessed: "There is such a thing, my younger brother is sick and urgently needs medicine, the family does not have enough money, and my grandmother plans to use the jade pendant as a medicine, who knows that such a thing will happen." At this time, my father went to the person who grabbed the jade pendant to theorize. β
Zhou Jingang was furious, slapped the bed board hard, and said roughly: "Fuck! Who ate the courage of an ambitious leopard and dared to rob the county family in broad daylight? Wait for Lao Tzu to come and kill him! β
