Traveling to an ancient peasant family: I got rich by doing business

The carriage was moving very fast. When Li Yu heard the screams of other passers-by, the horse had already galloped to her.

At the critical moment, she turned to the right.

The next moment, a carriage ran past her hand.

"Madam Li." The owner of the porcelain shop at the intersection ran over with an umbrella. "Are you okay?"

Li Yu stood up straight, picked up the umbrella that fell on the ground, looked in the direction where the carriage left and asked, "What happened just now?"

"I don't know either. The horse was fine a quarter of an hour ago, but it suddenly went crazy." The porcelain shop owner was still frightened when he thought of the scene just now. "Fortunately, Boss Li, you reacted quickly."

Otherwise, if you were kicked by that mad horse, you would be seriously injured if not killed.

"I'm lucky today." Li Yu said, "The horse has already run far away. I wonder if it will hit other people."

The owner of the porcelain shop immediately imagined a scene of a person being trampled by a horse. He looked reluctant and said, "I hope no one else gets hurt. Hey, Mr. Li, your hand is bleeding."

Li Yu lowered her head to look at her hands. The workmanship of the carriage was very poor. It must have been made of bad wood. The outside of the carriage was covered with burrs. It came into contact with the back of her left hand at such a fast speed, and as expected, it left a scratch on the back of her hand.

There was a large amount of blood on her hand now, which was a bit scary.

Immediately taking out a handkerchief and pressing it against the back of his hand, Li Yu said, "It's nothing, I'll just go to the store and bandage it."

The owner of the porcelain shop was worried. "You've lost so much blood. Why don't you wait in my shop and I'll ask my clerk to call a doctor."

"No need." Li Yu declined his help. "I have some supplies in my store. It's only a few steps away. It won't be a problem."

The porcelain shop owner saw that she was determined to leave and said no more: "Then Mr. Li, go back quickly and bandage your wound as soon as possible."

Li Yu left holding an umbrella.

The owner of the porcelain shop stood there and saw her figure disappear, then turned around and looked in the direction the carriage left.

That horse was really strange. It suddenly went crazy.

He has to be more careful in the future. If he were to witness what happened today, he would most likely not be able to avoid it and would be seriously injured.

Inside the hot pot restaurant, Nanny Tian saw Li Yu bleeding, and quickly found the store's spare wound medicine and gauze. Then she bandaged her wound while listening to Li Yu's story.

By the time Li Yu finished speaking, she had also finished bandaging the wound.

"Don't get wet these two days, be careful." Nanny Tian warned.

Li Yu nodded.

Taking her hand back, she said, "Mammy, could you please help me find out who's driving the carriage?"

"Boss Li suspected it wasn't an accident?"

Li Yu: "I have some doubts. There is one thing I didn't tell you just now, that is, when the carriage hit me, the driver didn't panic at all."

Generally speaking, when this happens under normal circumstances, the coachmen are the most panicked, because as long as they hit someone, they will have to take responsibility.

But the coachman just now looked calm.

Although the two looked at each other for only a brief moment, Li Yu saw it clearly and he was very calm.

Is there such a thing?

Nanny Tian said, "I will report to the princess as soon as I return to the palace, and then arrange for someone to investigate."

Li Yu intended to get to the bottom of the matter as soon as possible, but unexpectedly, after noon, the owner of the carriage came to the store to look for her.

The owner of the carriage was a pretty woman, with a maid and a coachman.

"My horse suddenly went crazy and caused Mr. Li to be injured. We are really sorry. To express our apology, please accept our compensation." The woman bowed gracefully, and when she looked up, her eyes were shining and she had a gentle temperament.

Li Yu looked at the woman and her servants and asked, "May I ask who the young lady is?"

"I'm from Jiangnan, my last name is Zhen." The woman smiled faintly, "Boss Li, you can just call me Miss Zhen. I'm in Beijing right now to visit my relatives, but I accidentally bumped into Boss Li on the street. I hope Boss Li can forgive me."

Li Yu: “…”

She felt a little uneasy.

Things were going too smoothly.

She said she wanted to check in the morning, and this person came to her door in the afternoon.

Hiding the doubts in his eyes, Li Yu said, "What happened today was just an accident. I don't blame Miss Zhen. It's just that there are many people in the capital. Miss Zhen, you must keep an eye on your horse next time you go shopping, otherwise it will be bad if you accidentally hurt someone."

"Boss Li is right. I will ask the groom to be more careful in the future." Miss Zhen bowed slightly. "No matter what, what happened today is my fault. Boss Li, please accept these things."

Li Yu didn't want to take it, so Miss Zhen put it on the counter. "There are 50-year-old ginseng and top-grade wound medicine in it. Boss Li, just use them. Your hand injury will be healed in the next day."

Li Yu didn't want to accept it, but when she thought about her doubts, the words of refusal turned into words of agreement: "Since it is Miss Zhen's kindness, I will accept it."

*

Less than half a quarter of an hour after Li Yu accepted the apology, Miss Zhen said goodbye and left.

Nanny Tian stepped forward and said, "The clothes Miss Zhen is wearing are made of brocade. Brocade is produced in low quantities and is very expensive. Only dignitaries and wealthy people outside the palace can afford it. She is of extraordinary status to be able to get this."

Li Yu said: "She can produce fifty-year-old ginseng and the best wound medicine, so she should be able to afford a high-quality carriage, rather than a carriage that is made of wood that is not even scraped properly and looks very simple."

"Something happened." Li Yu said, "We can't trust her."

Nanny Tian agreed. "I'll check. By the way, Boss Li, give me some ginseng and golden wound medicine. I'll take them back to the palace doctor for a check."

Li Yu nodded, unpacked the two things on the spot, and wrapped some of each in paper.

at the same time.

After Miss Zhen got on the shabby-looking carriage, the carriage moved forward, turned a corner after passing two main streets, and finally went into a secluded alley.

Patting her forehead with a handkerchief, Miss Zhen stepped on the driver's back to get off the carriage, and then walked north along the alley.

After walking for about half a quarter of an hour, a house appeared in front of Miss Zhen.

There is no plaque on the house, and the black gate looks simple and elegant.

The maid who followed Miss Zhen stepped forward and shouted twice, and then someone came running over and opened the door.

"Girl, you're back!" The servant who opened the door said with a flattering look on his face.

Miss Zhen hummed coldly, and then asked, "Did anyone come to my house during the time I was away?"

"No." The servant said, "The house was quiet and peaceful, and no one disturbed us."

Miss Zhen frowned.

She had already finished everything, but that person hadn't come yet.

No, she had to go take a look.

While the driver was preparing the carriage, Miss Zhen went back to her room to dress up. She was going to meet her beloved, so she wanted to show him her most beautiful self.

On Li Yu's side, in addition to giving the golden wound medicine to Nanny Tian, ​​she also took the golden wound medicine sent by Miss Zhen to the pharmacy.

She was worried and wanted to know what was added in it as soon as possible.
