The group's favorite, the blind princess is both a doctor and a poisoner
Chapter 46 The road is rough
At night, the butler Xu Bo came to see him. He had a kind smile on his face and held a lot of things respectfully in his hands. There were exquisite cosmetics, hairpins and rings, gorgeous silks and satins, and precious cakes with tempting aromas. These were all fashionable toys that were most loved by the noble ladies in Kyoto.
Xu Bo bowed slightly and said respectfully, "Miss, these are all specially ordered by the master to be bought for you. The master said that no matter how expensive something is, it is always small. The love between father and daughter is the most important. Let Miss rest assured."
Su Yuejian looked at the gifts and felt a slight movement in her heart. She nodded slightly and said, "Thank you, Uncle Xu."
She knew in her heart that her father was worried that she would be sad, so he was trying to show his affection to her in this way.
Her father valued friendship, loyalty and filial piety, but he was not foolish enough to believe slander today, so she did not blame him.
She smiled faintly and said, "Please thank my father for me. I just made his favorite eight-treasure duck and was about to send it to him. Since you are here, please bring it to him."
After hearing this, Xu Bo's smile became even brighter and he nodded repeatedly in agreement.
Yuzhu came in with two food boxes in her hands. There was a tempting aroma wafting out of the food boxes. When Xu Bo smelled the aroma, his eyes lit up.
He exclaimed in admiration: "Young lady's cooking skills are truly amazing. Just the smell makes me dizzy with fragrance."
He looked at the two food boxes in Yuzhu's hands and felt a little confused.
Su Yuejian saw what he was thinking and explained with a smile: "We have done a lot today. Uncle Xu has worked hard by my father's side. This snack box is for you."
Xu Bo's face was full of wrinkles from smiling, and he kept thanking him.
He secretly admired her in his heart. Ever since Su Yuejian became the head of the family, he had been paying close attention to her. This young lady was very organized and clear about rewards and punishments. She was truly remarkable.
He had long admired Su Yuejian in his heart, and now seeing how gentle and kind she was to her servants, he admired her even more.
I couldn't help but sigh that although she was an adopted daughter, she was a thousand times better than the second young lady who only cared about wearing glazed clothes and was arrogant.
Meanwhile, Wu heard rumors that the old lady seemed ill. She asked her servant Xigu to inquire about the matter, but the servants all shook their heads and said it was not true.
She hurried to Su Wan to inquire.
Su Wan was a smart person. She pretended to be confused and evaded Wu's questions by saying she knew nothing about them.
Mrs. Wu's expression instantly turned unhappy, her eyes blazing with anger. Before she even left Danguixuan, she began to curse: "What the hell is that little girl? She's just an orphan. If we hadn't adopted her and given her food to eat, how could she have lived a good life!"
Su Wan knew that Wu was saying this on purpose for her to hear.
But she pretended not to hear, bowed to Wu, and then watched her leave quietly.
The maid Xiao Fu couldn't stand it any longer and stood up for Su Wan: "Miss, what are you talking about! What adoption? It's obvious that they have taken away the property left to you by the master and the mistress. Besides, you have always been in charge of the family business. They have never worried about anything. It's not an exaggeration to say that you are supporting them."
A hint of bitterness flashed across Su Wan's eyes.
She recalled what had happened over the years. The property of the second branch of the Su family was nominally owned by Su Shiming, but the couple only knew how to enjoy themselves and squandered all the family property.
Her parents died early and she was adopted by the second wife. Life under someone else's roof was really hard. Over the years, she had heard Wu and Su Shiming say these ugly words many times, and her heart was filled with helplessness.
She shook her head helplessly and said to the maid, "Don't say such things in the future. If anyone hears them, it will inevitably lead to gossip."
She was silent for a while, then said, "Go buy some cakes tomorrow morning and go with me to see Sister Yue."
Perhaps because they were both adopted daughters, she felt particularly compatible with Su Yuejian.
She was filled with melancholy. She raised her head and looked at the inky sky, recalling the blue figure from many years ago.
Her heart was full of longing. If it were him, he would definitely be able to save her. As she thought about it, a faint smile appeared on her face.
Some time passed.
Su Yuejian was sitting on the couch eating cherry pancakes, feeling particularly relaxed.
She had just received a letter from Xie Jiusi, which said that the flower tea and Yurong Cream had received very good responses, especially the Yurong Cream, which was now very popular throughout Kyoto.
Her eyes sparkled with joy. She put away the letter, looked at the two boxes of banknotes and two boxes of gold on the table, and smiled with satisfaction.
The secret I told Xie Jiusi last time to take Changlefang to the next level has been prepared.
She also thought about the matter of recruiting doctors that she had discussed with Li Jingzhu some time ago, and it had been a long time since then, so she decided to go to Ji Medical Clinic in person to deliver the doctor and see how to teach him.
In the carriage, Yuzhu and Yinxin were happily cuddling with Su Yuejian.
Yuzhu's eyes sparkled, and she said excitedly, "Miss, I didn't expect the jade cream I used to be so effective.
Yin Xin echoed this, her face beaming with pride, "Of course, anything our young lady makes is a famous Kyoto product. Jade Beauty Cream is so expensive these days that it's hard to come by."
Su Yuejian listened to their endless praise, smiled and stretched out her hand, pinched their two little faces, and joked: "The two little girls are becoming more and more eloquent."
The master and his servants were laughing and joking when the carriage suddenly stopped.
Yuzhu curiously lifted the curtain and saw that the road ahead was blocked by a group of people.
A group of strong men were punching and kicking a young man on the ground. The young man's face was covered in blood. He curled up on the ground and groaned in pain.
Next to him stood a man in a green brocade robe, holding a veiled woman in his hand. The woman struggled constantly, as if she was arguing with someone.
Suddenly, the woman broke free from the man's restraints, ran to the front of the carriage, and knelt down. Her voice trembled as she sobbed and kowtowed repeatedly as she spoke, "Sir, please save us."
The man in the brocade robe saw this and his face turned very ugly. He had someone come forward to pull her over, then slapped her in the face and said viciously: "It is only natural to pay back a debt. Your brother has no money, so he will use you to pay off his debt!"
His eyes flashed with greed as he looked at the woman with lustful eyes: "I don't mind your disfigurement, but considering your good figure, I can barely sell you for a good price."
The onlookers were all whispering.
An old man shook his head and sighed, "This Hu Xiong is a notorious bully, and these two siblings are really pitiful."
Others also echoed: "Yes, yes."
These sounds reached the carriage. Su Yuejian frowned. Seeing that the young man had been beaten to death and the veiled woman was about to be dragged away, she felt a little reluctant.
A clear, pleasant female voice came from the carriage: "Wait, how much money do they owe you? I'll pay it on their behalf."
When the man in brocade robe heard the soft voice, he was immediately attracted by it.
The voice is so nice, she must be a beautiful girl.
He waved his hand, causing the strong men to stop beating her. With lust in his eyes, he stepped forward and said, "Young lady, you can pay for them, but you have to let me see you first."
Yuzhu, who was listening nearby, instantly flew into a rage. She shouted, "How dare you? My mistress said she'd pay for them, and you just named the price!"
The servant beside the man stepped forward and shouted, "Who are you? Do you know that my young master is the son of the wealthy businessman Mr. Hu?"
The man in brocade robe waved his hand and said impatiently, "Young lady, you didn't recognize me just now. I won't bother with you. As long as you let me see you, I will agree to let you pay them on their behalf."
He stood beside the carriage with confidence, looking into it with lustful eyes, thinking: Such a beautiful voice, she must be a great beauty.
Su Yuejian deliberately kept a low profile when going out this time in order to remain secret, but she didn't expect to encounter such trouble.
Yin Xin understood Su Yuejian's thoughts. Her expression turned serious and she said sternly, "How dare you! My young lady is the daughter of the Grand Tutor. How can I allow you to be so presumptuous here!"
The man trembled when he heard this, and he was a little surprised: it was the young lady from the Taifu Mansion.
But he was a little suspicious. He looked at the carriage and found that there was no sign. He thought to himself that it might be a scam.
He said loudly: "If you say so, then so, would the daughter of the Grand Tutor ride in such an ordinary carriage?"
Just as Yin Xin was about to show the Taifu Mansion token, she heard a gentle voice: "What if the head of this family says yes?"
