Chapter 104: Someone Died in the Tavern

"The poison in the body will be completely cleared in about a month. The ginseng Miss Zhou gave me is very useful."

Doctor Lao Bai looked at Xiao Yan's legs again, and after pressing a few acupuncture points with specific techniques, he raised his head and asked:

"Master Jiu's legs, can you walk now?"

Xiao Yan did not refute, "The old hospital doctor is very skilled in medicine."

Doctor Lao Bai also smiled: "I can see that you have been recuperating well during this period, and your internal illness has also been alleviated. The Zhou family is very caring."

His original decision was not wrong.

Xiao Yan only smiled faintly and asked, "I will be returning to Northern Frontier soon. Are you going to stay here forever?"

Doctor Lao Bai was startled, then laughed: "I almost forgot, you still have to go back to Northern Xinjiang."

"I'm an old man, and I've accepted a disciple with decent qualifications here, so I won't leave."

Xiao Yan nodded slightly: "Alright, the Zhou family is here, and my people will stay here too. If the old hospital needs anything, you can look for them."

Dr. Bai was even more surprised.

"The Ninth Young Master and the Zhou family..." seemed closer than he had imagined?

Xiao Yan didn't say much, only saying: "Miss Zhou has done me and Northern Frontier a great favor. I, the old dean, and the Zhou family can help each other."

"Miss Zhou's eldest brother is quite talented and has studied very hard. He will surely pass the imperial examination in time. Their second son... I think Feiyu is very interested in this child. If the Zhou family is willing, they might bring him with them on this trip back to Northern Xinjiang."

By then, only Miss Zhou and her parents would be left. Although there were people he left behind, it would be good to have more skilled doctors to take care of them.

The old man is the only relative his mother has in this world. Now that he is old, although he has accepted an apprentice, he trusts Zhou Lingling more. With her care, the old man will surely have no worries in his later years.

Hearing Xiao Yan's protective attitude towards the Zhou family, Doctor Lao Bai was deeply moved.

"Since the Ninth Young Master can make such an arrangement, I believe the Zhou family is indeed exceptional. This naturally makes me feel more at ease..."

***

As soon as Dr. Lao Bai left, Zhou Lingling jumped out of bed full of energy.

Yes, she feels great now!

The feeling of almost fainting in the morning seemed to be an illusion. Zhou Lingling is now full of energy.

There was a noise in the yard, and Zhou Lingling knew it was her second brother as soon as she heard it.

"Second brother! Second brother!"

Zhou Yun had just returned and when he heard his sister's voice he hurried over with a look of anxiety on his face.

Before Zhou Lingling could say anything, Zhou Yun spoke first, "Sister, it's bad! Someone's been eaten to death in our tavern!"

ha?

Someone died in the pub?

Zhou Lingling was stunned, and then her expression changed.

What the hell!

How dare they do this!

Zhou Lingling ran into the yard, calling Tie Yuan as she ran.

"Uncle Tie, Uncle Tie, take me to the tavern!"

Tie Yuan had already gone to harness the ox cart when he heard the conversation between the brother and sister.

After raising horses for so long, they are now catching up with cows. The experienced Tie Yuan only took half a day to get along well with the cows at home. Now they are cooperating and walking to the door by themselves.

As soon as Xiao Yan's wheelchair arrived at the main door, the three of them drove the cattle away.

Feiyu stood aside and asked worriedly, "Master, are we going?"

Xiao Yan stared at the courtyard gate for a long time before turning around and entering the house.

"No need."

Since she was running so fast, she probably didn't need his help.

If Zhou Lingling knew that this guy was so arrogant, she would definitely laugh at him.

As for whether or not to help, Zhou Lingling honestly hadn't really thought about this question...

In her eyes, the cooperation with Xiao Yan was all based on food, and the tavern was their own business. Zhou Lingling felt that she had taken advantage of Xiao Yan to help invite so many experienced veterans.

So Zhou Lingling is not in a hurry at this moment.

She thought that there were so many people in the store, and her parents must be fine, so she could easily be the one to go.

When she got outside the tavern, the facts were beyond her expectations.

Zhou Laoer and Chen were indeed fine, but the people who stopped the trouble were not who she thought they were.

That’s not true either, I can only say that it is partially true.

At the entrance of Zhouji, two groups of people were clearly confronting each other.

Outside, a group of people were all dressed in servants' uniforms, holding sticks in their hands, staring intently at the people standing at the door of the tavern.

Among the people at the door of the tavern were her father, Uncle Daqin, and two uncles under Uncle Tie. Each of them held a bench across their chests, protecting Chen, Aunt Fang and others from behind.

Even Erniu was standing behind with a broom in his hand. His small body was trembling a little, but his eyes were glaring fiercely at the uninvited guests outside.

There were several circles of people surrounding her inside and outside, so Zhou Lingling couldn't get in at all.

She heard someone say, "This week's diary actually killed someone. Will we be okay?"

"Yeah, I'm a little worried too. He ordered a pig's head and drank some wine here yesterday, and he's not feeling well when he goes back home that night."

"Zhou Ji's wine is strong liquor. The shopkeeper said that people who can't drink much can only drink rice wine. Could this person have drunk himself to death?"

"I also ate at Zhouji yesterday, I'm fine..."

The onlookers were talking about it, and Zhou Yun was so anxious that he was sweating profusely and was ready to act recklessly.

"Sister, wait, I'll uncover them all!"

Zhou Lingling grabbed his hand and stopped him.

With so many people here, it would be even more troublesome if someone fell.

An idea struck her, and she immediately shouted at the top of her voice:

"Make way, make way! Be careful, the boiling water may burn your hands!"

"Be careful with the boiling water!"

Shouting like this, Zhou Lingling pulled Zhou Yun into the crowd. Wherever they went, people made way for them.

Zhou Yun looked curious and asked Zhou Lingling, "Sister, why did they give way to us so obediently?"

Zhou Lingling explained, "Because people tend to seek benefits and avoid harm, if you tell them that the boiling water is about to scald them, they will naturally take a careful look and move aside."

"So, brother, you should use more tricks when doing things in the future, and don't just rush in and do things recklessly."

Zhou Yun nodded repeatedly, what his sister said was right!

The two men finally made their way through the crowd and reached the entrance of the tavern. Zhou Laoer and the others looked at the two messy-haired "little beggars" with vigilance as they suddenly appeared beside them.

Until the two "little beggars" looked up at the same time, grinning and shouting at him: "Dad!"

Just as Zhou Laoer was about to retort "Who is your father", he recognized that they were his own daughter and son.

"Daughter, why are you here?"

Chen, who was inside the door, heard it, ran out hurriedly, and pulled Zhou Lingling in.

"My daughter! Why are you here? It's so dangerous here. Come in and hide with me to avoid getting hurt by mistake."

Zhou Yun, who was left behind: ...

Zhou Lingling asked her mother, "Mom, what exactly happened? Have we reported it to the police?"

Chen said hurriedly: "We reported it, we reported it as soon as those people came. After all, it's a serious matter that someone died."

As she said this, she sighed deeply.

"Our store is constantly in turmoil. First, Young Master Xie came to the store to steal the recipe, and then a servant from the Xie family came to our house for dinner and died after returning. What's going on?"

"See? The one kneeling at the door said the dead man on the ground was her husband. Ieyasu also said that this man did come to our restaurant for dinner yesterday..."
