The concubine escaped and cried when she met the prince again

But just because he didn't say it didn't mean Shen Ruolan wouldn't say it. Shen Ruolan cooperated very well this time and agreed, "Okay, starting tomorrow, I will treat your master."

After Shen Ruolan finished speaking, although the people present did not say anything, those who were close to Mu Jinxuan and his servant subconsciously distanced themselves from him.

One of the men who was fishing heard Shen Ruolan's doctor, so he quickly looked up at her and asked, "Miss Shen, are you a doctor?"

Shen Ruolan smiled at him and said, "I know a little bit."

"Then can you please take a look at my wife?" The man looked at Shen Ruolan excitedly.

His wife's health has been getting worse since she fled the famine, which makes him extremely worried.

Shen Ruolan said without thinking: "Okay, but I'll charge you for it."

There were so many refugees, none of whom had any relatives or friends, and she didn't want to serve them for free. Although everyone followed her, they all took what they needed and no one took advantage of anyone else.

When the man heard that Shen Ruolan wanted to charge a fee, he felt embarrassed. He was penniless and had no money to pay for his wife's medical treatment.

Shen Ruolan looked at the embarrassed man and knew their difficulties. She thought for a moment and said, "Any of my fellow villagers can come to me for medical treatment. You can owe me money first and pay me back when you have money in the future."

After the man heard Shen Ruolan's words, he looked at her with gratitude and said, "Hey, I'll bring my wife over when we get back later."

Shen Ruolan nodded to the man and said to Ji Han, "Ji Han, make sure everyone is safe. After everyone catches fish, give two to Brother Wu. If other villagers want to eat fish, ask them to bring something to exchange with us."

"Yes, master." Ji Han replied.

Shen Ruolan told the other refugees: "No matter how many fish we catch today, when we go back to cook, try to make sure everyone can have a sip of hot soup."

"Yes, Miss Shen." Everyone responded loudly.

After Shen Ruolan gave instructions to everyone, she glanced at Mu Jinxuan and his servant and left.

Mu Jinxuan looked at the culprit who slandered his reputation. He really wanted to push her into the river, wash her face, and see the true face of this hateful woman. But when he thought that she was a pregnant woman, he resisted the urge in his heart.

When he saw her leave, he turned and followed her.

Shen Ruolan returned to the door of her house and saw Li Heng and his servant following her. She stopped and looked at them and said, "Sir, I only promised to help you cure your illness. You need to take care of your accommodation and three meals a day by yourself."

When Li Heng heard Shen Ruolan not caring about their eating, drinking, and defecation, he frowned and said to her, "Little Doctor, don't go too far. You took so much money from my master, so what's wrong with eating your food for a few days?"

The problem of accommodation is easy for them. They can just rent a house from the villagers. But what good food can these villagers, who have no food to eat, have?

Seeing that Li Heng was dissatisfied, Shen Ruolan pointed to the only empty space in the house and said to Li Heng: "The only empty space in my house is the yard. If you don't mind, you can sleep in my yard. As for the food..."

Shen Ruolan paused and said, "Not only is the price of food skyrocketing, but it's also hard to buy. If you and your servant eat here, I calculated that I would charge you five taels of silver per day, not more, not less, as your cost."

Li Heng was so angry at Shen Ruolan's shamelessness that he clenched his fists and said to Shen Ruolan with gritted teeth: "Little Doctor, can you say it again?"

Shen Ruolan pretended not to see his fist, looked at him calmly and said, "Say it ten times, it's the same price, you can choose not to eat it."

After she finished speaking, she looked at Li Heng speechlessly. She didn't want his money, so she really didn't understand why he was so excited.

Besides, she is not forcing them to buy anything. If they think it is too expensive, they can just leave!

Mu Jinxuan was so angry when he saw the woman in front of him whose heart was even darker than her face. However, for the sake of his own body, he endured it. He secretly told himself in his heart that sooner or later, he would make this woman in front of him kneel down and beg him.

Just when Li Heng wanted to say something, Mu Jinxuan suddenly said, "Just give it to her as she says."

Li Heng said disapprovingly, "Master, she is clearly robbing us."

They went outside to find the villagers, gave them one or two taels of silver every day, and believed that they would serve them well.

Unexpectedly, Mu Jinxuan said with a heroic look on his face: "It's okay, your master has plenty of money, let her rob it."

Shen Ruolan curled her lips at the two of them and corrected them, "Remember, this is not robbery, this is the living expenses for both of you."

She charged one or two taels of silver for a meal outside, but she charged five taels of silver for the three meals a day she and her servant had at her house. She was already very kind.

"Five taels of silver a day, that's still robbery." Li Heng muttered with dissatisfaction.

Shen Ruolan glared at him and said with an unhappy face: "You guys spend a few taels of silver for a meal outside, and you don't think it's expensive. But when you come to my place, I charge you five taels of silver for three meals a day, and you think it's expensive. It seems that you are bullying the weak and afraid of the strong, right?"

Li Heng snorted at her and ignored her.

However, after hearing what Shen Ruolan said, Mu Jinxuan seemed to be too serious. Every meal he had eaten in the city before cost at least five or six taels of silver.

However, even if some people realize that they are wrong, they will not apologize or anything. He just looked at Shen Ruolan with a complicated expression, and then ordered his subordinates: "Give her a month's silver first."

After hearing what his master said, Li Heng took out the banknote reluctantly and handed it to Shen Ruolan, saying, "Here, make sure the meal is delicious."

Shen Ruolan was about to reach out to take the banknote, but after hearing what Li Heng said, she withdrew her hand and said, "Sorry, the food here is brown rice and wild vegetable porridge. If you are used to it, you can eat it. If not, you can make it yourself."

She didn't want to work herself to death every day just to earn a few coins. She had more important things waiting for her to do, so their meals could only follow the crowd and they would eat whatever others ate.

After hearing what Shen Ruolan said, Li Heng hesitated for a moment, looked at his master and said, "Master..."

Mu Jinxuan glanced at Shen Ruolan and said, "The guest should follow the host's wishes. I will eat whatever Miss Shen eats."

"Yes." After listening to his master's words, Li Heng handed the banknote to Shen Ruolan again.

Shen Ruolan took the two banknotes from Li Heng and took a look at them. Seeing that they were worth two hundred taels, she smiled at him and said, "Wait, I'll give you the change."

Five taels of silver a day, thirty days a month, a total of one hundred and fifty taels of silver. People gave her two hundred taels, so she had to ask for another fifty taels of silver.

Shen Ruolan quickly took out fifty taels of silver and handed it to Li Heng. Just when Li Heng was about to take the silver, she suddenly took it back, looked at the master and servant with a tangled face and said, "How about you change the banknotes into silver for me?"
