"Who dares to bully people in the name of the Chu family, our Chu family is unwilling." After the woman finished yelling, Qingdi got up and answered.

Shopkeeper Zhang hurriedly turned to Qingdi and said: "Young lady, don't listen to her nonsense, our Ji Citang century-old brand, even if it is not under the Chu family, it will never do anything to bully people, and now that it is here, we will do things more conscientiously, and we will definitely not bring a little trouble to the owner." The doctor who may have prescribed the wrong medicine, we also sent him to the government without favoritism, and he is still locked up. ”

Qingdi listened to the shopkeeper's words, nodded and asked, "Generally speaking, how long does it take for the government to produce results?" ”

"The government's process is very complicated, and the autopsy should have been completed as soon as possible, but it will take a long time to check whether the doctor prescribed the wrong medicine and whether the medicine prescribed was the cause of death." Shopkeeper Zhang replied to her.

Qingdi thought for a while, turned her face and asked Ying Konglai, "Konglai, do you understand this matter?" Isn't that what it looks like? ”

"That's true. In fact, not only Ji Citang has had such a situation, but many medicine halls of the Chu family have had such a situation before, and we all went to report to the officials ourselves. Shadow Sky nodded and said.

Qingdi roughly understood, so he said to the woman: "Your husband has passed away, we understand your feelings very well, but now the results have not come out, and you can't say that your husband died because Ji Citang's doctor prescribed the wrong medicine." Can you wait any longer? ”

"Wait?" The woman sneered and said, "I know, you don't have any good things, you all bully us powerless little people, the government?" Does the government work? The government can't wait to nod and flatter your Chu family! It's been so long and there hasn't been a result, presumably after a long time, this matter will be over, right? You are collusion between officials and businessmen! The emperor has done such a conscientious thing at his feet, and you are not human! It's all beasts! ”

As the woman spoke, she suddenly rushed over and pushed Qingdi hard, Qingdi didn't expect her to do this, and by the time she reacted, she had already fallen backwards.

Chu Yaocen rushed up to catch the green flute with an arrow step, and then turned his head and looked at the woman coldly, the woman felt this gaze full of murderous intent, and suddenly she didn't dare to move, and stood there straight.

"Young lady, are you alright?" Ying Konglai was also startled, and hurriedly asked Qingdi.

Qingdi shook his head, stood up from Chu Yaocen's arms, and said to the woman: "You said that our officials and businessmen colluded, so why is the government still holding our people now?" If the government is trying to curry favor with our Chu family, wouldn't it have released people earlier? ”

Yingkong came to see Qingdi say such a thing, glanced at her, the corners of his mouth hooked a slight arc, the reaction was fast enough, the focus of the grasp was accurate enough, good.

The woman opened her mouth, she didn't think of any good reason, and finally had to frown and say: "Anyway, you are bullying people, otherwise with the financial resources of your Chu family, you will pay me tens of thousands of taels of silver, what is the matter?" But your Chu family doesn't even want this, it's really all for the sake of being rich and unkind! ”

At this time, the shopkeeper Zhang also spoke, and said: "Young lady, it's really not like this, in fact, if it is tens of thousands of taels of silver, we Ji Citang can also compensate ourselves, and we don't need to report to the Chu family at all, but if we want to compensate like this, isn't it equivalent to admitting that our doctor made a mistake?" But I believe that our doctor will never make this kind of mistake, so I hope that the government can deal with it impartially, it is our fault, we can compensate how we want, it is not our fault, we will definitely not suffer this dumb loss! ”

Yingkong nodded and said, "What Shopkeeper Zhang said is that if this money is given casually, then it is an admission that he is wrong." ”

Qingdi heard what the two men said, so she went to the woman and said, "Okay, you go back first, we will send someone to urge the government to see if we can give you an answer within five days, is it okay?" ”

Qingdi has already said this, what else does she have to say? He had no choice but to snort coldly, turn his head and leave here.

After she left, the shopkeeper Zhang said embarrassedly: "I'm sorry everyone, we didn't think about it because we let you see such a thing today." ”

"It's okay," Qingdi shook his head and said, "Since I will take over Ji Citang in the future, then I should know everything in the hall." The woman just now, did she have children at home? ”

Shopkeeper Zhang shook his head: "No, she was bought by her husband from other places and married as a daughter-in-law, and there is no one in the family, neither the elders, nor the children." ”

Qingdi thought for a while and said, "I just thought, if she still has children or old people at home, I will help her with some money in advance, if she is alone, as long as she goes out to find work to do, she should not starve to death." ”

"Even if she has old people and children at home, she can't help her at this time," Yingkong took Qingdi's words and said to her: "I know that the second young lady is kind-hearted, but now that things have not come to fruition, any act of goodwill on our side may be a hush money in the eyes of outsiders, and we are all at a loss." Therefore, the second young lady, you can't do business with this temperament, don't talk about feelings when you do business, it's small to hurt money, and it's big to break your reputation. ”

Qingdi blinked and looked at the shadow sky, was he being taught a lesson? But if you think about it, Shadow Sky is telling the truth. However, Qingdi still didn't understand something, so she asked: "That woman just now said that we are not benevolent to the rich, should we scatter some money to prove that we are still very charitable?" ”

Shadow Sky Lai shook his head and smiled, "No need, charity or not charity can't be created overnight. The Chu family has done enough good deeds, and so many plaques of 'Wonderful Hands and Benevolence' hung in Ji Ci Hall were all given by the people. ”

Qingdi thought carefully about Yingkong's words, nodded and said, "Okay, I know, I won't be kind in the future." ”

"Ah, are you done," Ying Konglai was just about to reply to Qingdi, when Chu Yaocen suddenly spoke, and said, "We've been talking for so long, I'm so hungry, let's go out and eat something." ”

"Oh yes, yes, yes, I was delayed by the incident just now, I didn't expect it to be dinner so soon, I hurried to ask the next person to prepare some food, let's eat some here." Shopkeeper Zhang hurriedly greeted.

"I don't want to eat here, there is a smell of medicine," Chu Yaocen hurriedly shook his head, and then said to Qingdi: "Little fox, let's go out and eat something delicious." ”

Qingdi saw Chu Yaocen's face full of anticipation, and it was not easy to refuse him, so he nodded and said to the other two: "Come on, shopkeeper Zhang, let's go out for lunch together." ”

Ying Konglai shook his head and said: "Shopkeeper Zhang is definitely not free to go out, I will also stay and explain some things to Shopkeeper Zhang, and when the explanation is over, I will go directly to the eldest young master in the afternoon, and the shopkeeper Zhang will tell the young master and the young lady about the later things here." ”

Qingdi nodded and said, "It's okay." ”

After a few people finished speaking, Qingdi went out with Chu Yaocen. This Ji Ci Tang is at the entrance of the East Market, walk a few steps to the very prosperous East Market, there is a street dedicated to selling food, row by row next to dozens of restaurants, there are stalls selling snacks at the door, the aroma of all kinds of food is mixed together, it really makes people appetite.

"Little fox, what do you like to eat?" Chu Yaocen turned his head and asked Qingdi happily.

Qingdi looked left and right, all kinds of beautiful and fragrant snacks overwhelmed her, she wanted to eat a little bit of everything, but she didn't know what was delicious.

"Little fox, have you ever eaten here before?" Chu Yaocen asked again.

Qingdi used to come to Dongshi to buy sugar gourds when they were children, but after they arrived on the outskirts of the city, they never came here again. The impression of this place is also vague, but there is one thing that I remember very clearly, there are many delicious things here.

"I came here when I was a kid, and then I didn't." Qingdi replied to him.

"Hehe, I come here often, I know what's delicious, I'll take you to eat." Chu Yaocen said, then took Qingdi's hand and walked up at a faster pace.

Qingdi nodded, and also kept up with his pace, and they ran to an old man with two big steamers in front of him, and when the old man saw Chu Yaocen, he smiled and said, "Second young master, are you here again?" What to buy today? ”

"Flower cake, borrowing cake, elm money cake, jujube lotus leaf, silver silk roll two, and then wrap me two donkeys to roll." Chu Yaocen took out the silver in one hand and said to the old man.

"Okay." The old man answered and opened the cover, and put two different pastries in the first drawer, and a fragrance came to his nose, Qingdi couldn't help but take a deep breath, and the gluttonous insects were hooked out.

Holding the oiled paper in one hand and the clamp in the other, he skillfully scooped up two of each of each, and then directly took the top drawer with his hand and took the second drawer of pastries.

After the old man took it, he handed a bag of pastries to Chu Yaocen, Chu Yaocen took it, handed it to Qingdi, and then pulled Qingdi to another one, most of this shop are baked and fried pastries, Chu Yaocen said: "Boss, Jiang rice noodles, steamed dumplings, three knives of honey, three knives of honey, two of them are burned, two are turned, two are salty, two are baked cakes, two are toad spit honey, and two hard noodle bracelets are wrapped." ”

Chu Yaocen said, and wanted to pay again, Qingdi hurriedly said: "Don't buy Yaocen, it's enough to eat." ”

"It's not enough, it's not enough, in the past, the second young master had to buy a big bag back by himself, but now that he is married to the second young lady, he must buy more." The guy who bought the things smiled and said to Qingdi, turned his head and immediately loaded things for the two of them.

Qingdi looked at Chu Yaocen in surprise and asked him, "I wasn't there before, can you eat so much by yourself?" ”

"Give it to Yan Xi." Chu Yaocen smiled and took the things that the store had made, and said with a smile: "Let's go, you can finish eating." ”

"Okay." Qingdi answered, and went out with Chu Yaocen holding two big hugs of delicious food.

As soon as the two of them walked outside, Qingdi suddenly saw a figure not far away that he had just seen flashing, and the man looked left and right, as if he was looking for something.

Qingdi was stunned, and hurriedly grabbed Chu Yaocen and said, "Yaocen, look at that person......"
