Chapter 237: The Wounded
Steward Hu took Zhou Cheng to the nearby famous Hualiu Lane, after all, Suming County is a small place, and it is already good that a brothel can be opened, so I don't care what the specifications are.
Zhou Cheng looked at the dilapidated place, and suddenly lost his mood: "Just such a place can also be called Hualiu Lane?" What the hell! ”
Steward Hu hurriedly bowed his head and apologized, "Young Master Zhou atoned for his sins, why don't you go to eat first?" You should also be picked up for a long journey......"
Zhou Cheng glanced at him and snorted, "Na Chengbei, you lead the way, as the young master of Ben, you will definitely go here to the best!" ”
"Yes, yes, yes! It must be the best to go, this Hongbin Lou's roast duck is a must, and it is also famous in Jiangdu! Please ...... your side."
When Qi Ling came back from shopping for vegetables at the nearby vegetable market, he happened to pass by the entrance of Anrentang, and found that a very luxuriously decorated carriage was parked in their backyard, and a traditional character was printed on the curtain of the car, which looked a little like 'Zhou'.
Her heart jumped violently, and she hurriedly ran back to Fushou Building.
It was almost noon, and the number of visitors was much less, and the lobby was empty.
Seeing her coming back, the sixth son hurriedly greeted her and took the basket in her hand, "The big boss has worked hard, what are you going to do today?" ”
Qi Ling felt a wave of irritability in his heart when he thought of the carriage, looked around the lobby, and didn't find the figure he wanted, and couldn't help asking, "What about Gu Jinfeng?" ”
"Gu Gongzi is sorting out the medicinal materials in the backyard, and there are no guests in the front hall, the big boss ......"
Qi Ling lifted the hem of her skirt, "I'll go find him." ”
"Hey, but this dish ......" Liuzi disappeared before he finished speaking, and she couldn't help muttering, "I also said that it was not interesting to Gu Gongzi, and I was in a hurry to come back to find someone after going out for a while......"
When Qi Ling hurriedly came to the backyard, Gu Jinfeng was sorting out the medicinal materials, recently because the pills were relatively large in and out, pills and powders were grinding in a hurry, and the guys in the backyard were inevitably busy.
"Gu Jinfeng!" Qi Ling's face was anxious: "You hurry up and come here!" ”
He was sorting out the medicinal herbs, and his brows furrowed slightly: "What are you doing like this?" Although he said this, he still put down the medicinal herbs in his hand and went to the well to fetch water and wash his hands.
Qi Ling hurriedly approached him and whispered, "When I came back from shopping for vegetables just now, I saw a luxuriously decorated carriage parked in the backyard of An Rentang. ”
"Oh, and then?"
"I saw that the carriage had a week on it......"
Gu Jinfeng paused to wash his hands, and his eyes narrowed slightly, "Are you sure it's Zhou?" ”
Qi Ling looked unconvinced, "I've read a book anyway, can't I still recognize a word, isn't it a joke?" ”
"If it's the Zhou family, it may be really a little difficult to handle...... Gu Jinfeng picked up the handkerchief on the side, wiped his hands, and said in a deep voice, "I have also heard a little about the Zhou family this time, but I didn't expect that the owner behind this Anrentang turned out to be their people." ”
"This week's home... Is it a big deal? ”
Gu Jinfeng nodded, "The origin is indeed very large, and now fifty percent of the troops in the capital are in the hands of that person, the most famous of which is the Imperial City Army, which is responsible for the defense of the periphery of the capital." ”
Qi Ling's eyes widened, "The ...... in charge of the troops" Could it be that it is the book of the military department? ”
Gu Jinfeng glanced at her in surprise and bowed slightly, "Yes, it is Zhou Kaiming, the secretary of the Ministry of War, and now his strength in the court can be described as in full swing, and it is not easy to mess with." ”
Qi Ling knew that Gu Jinfeng had lived in the capital since he was a child, and he still had some understanding of the distribution of forces in it, and what came out of his mouth would definitely not be false.
Qi Ling looked annoyed, what's wrong with this?!
Finally, the business has improved somewhat, but it has attracted such a bad god!
Gu Jinfeng looked at her anxious look, and said comfortingly, "Don't think about it so much, the characters of the Zhou family are also divided into three, six, nine and so on, and some side branches have the name of the Zhou family at most, but in fact, they don't have any real power at all, so if they can't fight, they can be beaten out." ”
Qi Ling glared at him, "You said it lightly, with the tricky character of the manager, you must have deliberately said it too much, and you may not know how to bury us!" ”
"Then what's the use of you being in a hurry now? The soldiers will block the water and cover the earth, and the body is not afraid of the shadow, and now that An Rentang has already lost the trust of the surrounding residents when he does that kind of thing, what face does he have to find trouble for us? ”
Seeing him so eloquent, Qi Ling really couldn't bear to say anything more, after all, she basically didn't have any connections in Suming County, and she basically relied on him to solve everything that happened, so she was really powerless!
She couldn't help sighing, "It's really a wave of unsettled, wave after wave... By the way, why didn't I see Meng Huan? ”
According to the time allocated before, Doctor Zheng should have gone out to check the pulse in the morning, and he should stay in the hospital to entertain guests at this time, right?
Gu Jinfeng didn't squint, "He happened to have something to do, and he said that he would come back in a while." ”
Qi Ling nodded, but he didn't care.
At this time, Meng Huan had just come out of Huazi's house, turned his head and ordered, "Remember to take it according to the above course of treatment, your mother's condition has dragged on for too long, and she needs to be stimulated with a pair of fierce drugs intermittently, and she may be a little uncomfortable and vomiting at that time, don't bear it!" ”
Hua Zi nodded again and again, "I am provincial, thank you Doctor Meng!" I'll do it! ”
The Cestbon pill that Steward Hu sent to Liu Yuanwai that day was the bag dropped by Huazi, and this action was simply unaware, and even Steward Hu himself thought that he had accidentally taken the wrong one.
After exposing An Rentang's low-priced pills, Gu Jinfeng asked Meng Huan to come to his mother's door for treatment as promised, although he didn't know the relationship, Meng Huan still insisted on taking the patient as the big thing and carrying the medicine box.
"Then I'll go back first, I'll come back at this time tomorrow, remember to use some lighter ones for dinner, just clean porridge and the like, remember to always open the windows to ventilate the house, so that the patient will get better faster."
Huazi hurriedly nodded in response, and watched Meng Huan leave.
Meng Huan carried the medicine box on his back and was about to go back, the sun was really hot these days, so he found a secluded path to walk, it was cool without sun or anything, but when he just walked to the corner, he collided with a person head-on!
"Bang!"
Meng Huan felt as if he had hit an unusually stiff wall, and the whole person was directly knocked out without exaggeration!
'Plop'
He shook his dizzy head vigorously, what is this, you can be bumped into when you go out?
He covered his head and gasped, and the touch of his head was a pain in his heart!
"Hey, I said you ......" Meng Huan raised his head angrily and was about to take charge of the other party, but found that the person had fallen directly to the ground, seemingly unconscious.
He was stunned all of a sudden, this... Isn't this what the big bosses often say about touching porcelain?
"I... I'm telling you, I'm not going to lose money! Meng Huan couldn't see the pain in his buttocks, picked up the medicine box and prepared to leave, but when he walked past the man, he smelled a smell of blood.
He subconsciously stopped, put down the medicine box and leaned over cautiously, the man seemed to have reached the limit, and fainted directly after colliding with himself.
Meng Huan examined his body, there were some small abrasions in other places, but the most fatal was the knife wound on his back, although it was simply bandaged, but after that, it seemed that there had been vigorous movement, and the wounds had all been cracked, and the oozing blood had soaked the entire back.
It's also a shame that he wears a black shirt, which doesn't look very conspicuous.
