Traveling through the starry sky just for you, I was a koi in ancient times

Mrs. Liu looked in the direction the shopkeeper pointed and saw that the shop opposite was not big, but there were many people buying things. Even during the New Year, it was still open for business.

He walked over a few steps, squeezed into the crowd and asked:

"Is this too raw rice?"

"Yes! This is Tai Sheng Rice Shop. You didn't know it!"

Liu Laoshi's wife pushed Wang Jinyi up and squeezed through the queue, stepping deep and shallow. She timidly lowered her head to the cashier.

"Is the rice here too raw?"

Dong Qing, the shop assistant, was checking the money with his head down. He looked up and corrected her, "What do you mean by 'Tai Sheng Rice'? This is Tai Sheng Rice Shop. 'Tai' means peace and prosperity, and 'Sheng' means prosperity."

"Yes, yes, this is it!"

The woman nodded quickly, freeing one hand to point at Wang Jinyi who was unconscious on her back.

"The young master kept talking about this the whole way, and it must be right!"

Dong Qing glanced along the direction of her hand and saw that she was carrying a nun with a bad look on her face. Although she didn't know her, she quickly walked around the counter and said:

"Fellow villager, what's wrong with this young master? Come in first. It's windy outside and it's not good to be cold."

Then he led the people into the store.

"We don't allow outsiders into the store, but given her condition... you can rest here for a while."

He pointed at Wang Jinyi, "What's wrong with her?"

Mrs. Liu wiped the sweat from her head and quickly explained:

"I met this young chef on the road. She said she was going to the county town to find some Taisheng rice or something."

Dongqing looked at the little nun carefully, and couldn't imagine where such a person came from among his customers. He shook his head.

"I don't recognize her."

"But she's sick and has to come here. What should I do?"

Liu Laoshi's wife was anxious. She ran an extra ten miles and it was already late when she returned. She didn't recognize the place yet. She sighed softly:

"She has a fever and is completely delirious, yet she still wants to come here..."

The clerk realized that all the customers in the store were looking at him, and he softened.

"I really don't know this nun. I can wait until she recovers and ask her who she was looking for! Please help her clean up first, and I'll pay for the doctor. What do you think?!"

"But I have to go back. Laoshi is still waiting for me!"

When Dongqing saw the person sending the gift was about to leave, he rolled his eyes and thought of an idea.

"I'll hire you for twenty people a day. When she wakes up, she'll know who to look for. We can work out the rest later."

The woman's eyes widened when she heard this. What? Twenty copper coins? That was much more than selling firewood. She decided to look after the little nun. She was thinking about what to do now that Liu Laoshi was still on the official road.

Dongqing looked at the customers queuing up to buy food, and then looked at the reluctant faces of the people who were giving gifts.

"Well, you put her in my room first, and I'll find a doctor to see her. Today, even if I hire you for a day, do you want twenty copper coins or ten kilograms of brown rice? It's your choice!"

The wife was stunned when she heard this. She and her husband had gotten up early to chop firewood and sell it in the county town, but two full loads of firewood couldn't even be exchanged for ten kilograms of brown rice...

While she was in a daze, Dong Qing led her into a simple little room and instructed her:

"Just help her change her clothes and clean up. You can take care of the cleanup anyway."

That was enough. Dongqing found a new set of clothes from Tai Shengfa from the small box at the head of the bed, put it on the head of the bed, went out to get a pot of hot water, and then left.

When they arrived at the front shop, many customers asked about it. Dongqing was busy selling grain while explaining. He was also thinking that after sending these people away, he had to find a better doctor.

Before he had finished with one customer, Mrs. Liu came running from behind, beckoned Dongqing to the backyard, and said in a low voice:

"Look, these are the things the little nun brought with her. Please keep them for her and give them to her when she wakes up."

"Auntie, just help her keep it. You have to accompany her anyway..."

Dongqing casually glanced at the two jade pieces in his hands. One... one was a family emblem engraved with the word "King", and the other one was also engraved with the word "King"!

The more he looked, the more familiar it looked. Suddenly, his eyes lit up and he turned and ran to the counter.

He took out a wooden box from under the counter, which contained an album. He opened it and carefully compared it with the jade pendant. He slapped his thigh, turned around and ran to the backyard.

Dear customers in the store, kindly remind:

"Oh, slow down, it's so cold in the New Year, it's hard to get into trouble!"

Dong Qing suddenly heard that there were customers, and hurriedly bowed with an apologetic look on his face:

"I'm sorry everyone, but there's something urgent going on in the store today, so we have to close early. Please come back another day!"

After saying this, he ignored the customers' complaints, forced everyone to leave, and closed the shop door.

He returned to the backyard and said gratefully to Liu Laoshi's wife:

"Aunt, thank you for sending me here. We will definitely repay you for this kindness!"

The wife waved her hands hurriedly: "Money and food are not urgent. Saving the young master is important first. She has a severe fever and we can't delay."

Dongqing didn't say anything more, turned back to the counter, put both pieces of jade into the cash box, and locked it.

He hurried out, but after a few steps he ran back to open the cash box, took out a five-liang silver ingot, locked the cash box again, and ran out...

The doctor took Wang Jinyi's pulse and prescribed a prescription. Wang Jinyi changed into clean clothes, drank some hot medicine, and slept soundly until the next afternoon.

Dongqing did not dare to be careless. According to what was written in the album, the jade plaque with the family emblem of the word "Wang" in white indicated that this person had a status in the Wang family.

This guy was so poor that he was picked up on the street. I'm afraid there's something wrong here and I have to report it quickly.

Dong Qing hired a mule cart and gave Liu Laoshi a cloth bag:

"Auntie, here are your wages and two bags of food. Please go back first and be careful on the road. When the young master is better, we will come to thank you."

Liu Laoshi's wife arrived home in a mule cart, but did not see Liu Laoshi. She hurried to the official road to look for him. From a distance, she saw Liu Laoshi huddled beside a pile of firewood, his lips purple from the cold, but he was still waiting for her.

On the other side, Dongqing drove the carriage, carrying Wang Jinyi into the provincial capital - Luanzhou City day and night.

Go straight to Luanzhou Taisheng Government Affairs Office.

As soon as he entered the gate, he asked anxiously:

"Manager Shen, do you think there's anything strange about this jade pendant?!"

Zhao Chunming, who was checking the accounts in the inner room, heard the shouting but didn't take it seriously. After a while, Manager Shen came in and placed a jade pendant in front of him.

He took one look and stood up in a flash. He rushed out in one step.

"Where did the jade pendant come from? Where did the person come from?!"

Dongqing lifted the car curtain and pointed inside:

"inside……"

"Miss! Boss! What happened to you? What kind of suffering did you go through? You've lost all your hair!"

Zhao Chunming was at a loss, so Manager Shen sent someone to invite a doctor, and then went home to ask his wife and daughter to take care of the boss.

The doctor carefully examined the pulse and frowned:

"This girl has caught a cold and has an old injury. She's also worried and has a burning sensation in her heart. I'm afraid she'll have to endure it for a few days."

He then wrote out a prescription and instructed:

"You guys arrived just in time. If you were any later, people might have died."
