The Bully General's Spiritual Husband
Chapter 138 Gossiping Ma
Yesterday, Jiang Su, like Li Zhe, came up empty-handed at the county government office.
After returning, he told Li Zhe and He Qi about the news. Li Zhe told the two of them what he had found out, so the three of them came to Fu Man Lou early this morning to keep watch.
He Qi saw Wang Fu come out to greet Jin Mao and hurriedly asked, "Boss, what do you think of that person?"
Li Zhe shook his head, "No, this person is the steward of the Jin family. I saw him at the Jin family yesterday. He is not one of Yu Ming's subordinates."
He Qi thought he had discovered it, but it turned out he had misunderstood. He scratched his head embarrassedly.
Jiang Su chuckled to himself, thinking to himself, "That idiot He Qi is definitely not suited for things that require thinking."
The little incident involving the three of them didn't affect Wang Fu and Jin Mao at Fu Man Lou; the two of them actually enjoyed their meal.
After finishing the meal, Wang Fu smiled and saw the person out. Before leaving, Jin Mao once again reminded him to remember to bring the person to Master Jin.
After watching Jin Mao walk away, Wang Fu's smile faded. What should he do? If he introduced Jin Mao to the master, wouldn't that mean having another person to share power with?
Seeing her shopkeeper's gloomy face, He Miao curiously came over to inquire about the situation.
"Is something on your mind, shopkeeper?"
Wang Fu looked worried. "Sigh... You know, the master wants me to introduce Zhao Lin to him. With his talent, what will I do in the future..."
He Miao was a shrewd person; she could tell what her boss was thinking as soon as she heard it.
Suddenly he had an idea, "Shopkeeper, you can delay for a while! You know, Zhao Lin often travels to and from the outer regions, so it's normal that he can't come back for a while, isn't it?"
Upon hearing He Miao's words, Wang Fu felt as if he had been struck by lightning. Yes, how come he hadn't thought of such a way to gloss over the matter?
In ten days or half a month, the master will definitely not remember that there is such a person as Zhao Lin.
Wang Fu stroked his mustache with satisfaction and said happily, "You're the clever one, buddy. Alright, get back to work. Look, we have another new customer."
He Miao hurriedly and warmly greeted the guests who stepped in, but glared at Xiao Si, who was also greeting guests across the street.
Xiao Si couldn't stand He Miao's behavior and rolled his eyes back. "You're really something, aren't you? You're just a worker like me, what's there to be so smug about?"
Besides, Hongxilou's business is doing well, and many customers are looking forward to the newly launched signature dishes!
After Yu Ming finished breakfast at the Huang residence, Huang Nian personally invited him over, saying, "I've heard that Young Master Lin is knowledgeable in pharmacology, so please come and take a look at our master!"
Huang Nian had served Master Huang for decades, and seeing his old master like this was not a good feeling for him. Fortunately, his master was still willing to eat the food at Fu Man Lou.
I went to the Jin residence last time to inquire about my intention to buy these foreign "spices," but I haven't received a reply yet.
Yu Ming nodded and followed behind Huang Nian, and the two walked together toward Huang Yuanwai's courtyard.
After Huang Lianxi learned that Yu Ming could treat illnesses, she left his place and went to her father's courtyard to tell him. She also repeatedly begged Yu Ming to examine her.
Seeing how much he loved his precious daughter, Master Huang readily agreed. He didn't know what illness he had, but from the servants, he learned that his illness was related to that "Master Yang," who had poisoned him.
Thinking of this, Huang Hou wished he could drag Yang Hu out and tear him to pieces. It was Yang Hu who had made him look like this.
When Yu Ming and Huang Nian arrived, Master Huang was having breakfast.
After being allowed to enter the house, Yu Ming immediately saw that Master Huang was eating food from Fu Man Lou that had been laced with Wu Shi San (a traditional Chinese medicine).
He realized that the old man's addiction to Wushisan was even greater than he had thought, and he had started using it early in the morning.
Huang Lianxi blushed as she looked at Yu Ming entering. She took a small step behind her father and didn't dare to look directly at him.
After finishing his meal, Master Huang looked Yu Ming up and down, who was standing in front of him.
"I must thank Young Master Lin for saving my daughter. Today, Xi'er told me that you know medicine, so I would like to trouble you to treat this old man."
Yu Ming pretended to diagnose and treat Master Huang, describing all the symptoms of the Five-Stone Powder.
The more he spoke, the more excited Huang Nian and Huang Lianxi, who were standing next to him, became. They looked at each other and realized that their father could be saved. No one had ever described the symptoms so clearly before.
Huang Nian no longer dared to underestimate Yu Ming; this Young Master Lin was truly a capable person.
Sitting on the bed, Master Huang naturally didn't miss the glances from his daughter and the steward, but he was still half-asleep and certainly didn't know what had happened. It seemed this young man was not to be underestimated.
After pretending to treat the patient, Yu Ming said to the group, "I can cure Master Huang's illness. As long as you trust me, I will write down the prescription when I get back."
The joy on the faces of the three could not be hidden. Looking at Yu Ming's appearance, Huang Lianxi secretly fell in love with him. Not only had Young Master Lin saved her, but he could also cure her father's illness.
Master Huang waved his hand and instructed Huang Nian: "Go and make arrangements. My Huang family will host a grand banquet for Young Master Lin today."
Huang Nian left happily, leaving only Yu Ming and the other two in the room.
Having just eaten food infused with Five-Stone Powder, Master Huang was in a state of high excitement and inquired extensively about Yu Ming's situation.
Yu Ming fabricated all of these stories, and Huang Lianxi, who was sitting next to him, did not miss Yu Ming's answers; she remembered them all.
Huang Hou could easily see through his daughter's thoughts, and asked, "Does Young Master Lin have someone he loves?"
Yu Ming shook his head. "No."
Huang Lianxi gave her father a coquettish look, and Huang Hou laughed heartily.
Today, Yin Baicai took Shen Jin to Li Zhe's field to pick corn as usual, and he noticed that there were many more young girls and women coming to the field today.
However, these people were all secretly observing Shen Jin, their gazes constantly drifting in their direction.
Yin Baicai glanced at Shen Jin with amusement, as if to say, "Brother, you're quite the ladies' man! You've captivated all the young women and wives."
Shen Jin smiled and relaxed her brows. "Get to work."
Ma Qiao'e, who had a grudge against Yin Baicai, couldn't stand the interaction between Yin Baicai and Shen Jin. She spat and said, "Shameless vixen, flirting with other men. If Li the bully finds out, he'll skin you alive."
Just two days ago, I saw the bully Li leave the village, and this cunning man has already brought that pretty boy to his house.
Shameless vixen, she only knows despicable seductive tricks, and I used to think she seemed honest and upright.
So it was all an act! How could such a handsome young man fall for this shrew?
He'd said before that Yin Baicai was a womanizer who knew how to seduce men, but that bully Li didn't believe him and even came looking for trouble. Now, no sooner had he left than this pretty boy showed up at his door.
Ma Qiao'e wasn't the only one who disliked Yin Baicai; another pair of eyes, not far away, were also fixed on Yin Baicai.
