A fire not only destroyed the former prosperity of Annan Pavilion, but also completely ended the Wang family's monopoly of Jinning Wharf.

Unlike the crowds of guests and high-spirited talks in the past, today's teahouse is obviously much more depressed, and there are only a few scattered people chatting in low voices in the lobby.

"If you ask me, this bear is also unlucky. Who would have thought that he, a majestic governor of water transportation, would be burned to death on a bed in a brothel?" The speaker shook his head.

"I remembered that a while ago, the Taoist priest invited by Mrs. Wang said that if Wang Gouxiong does evil things again, he will be caught in fire again. I didn't expect that living god to be so accurate!"

"I was passing by the boundary of Annan Pavilion today, and I happened to see Mrs. Wang and her servants collecting Wang Gouxiong's corpse. The corpse had already been burned to charcoal by the fire, and only a rough body could be found."

The man said with emotion: "Old Madam Wang only has this one son, and now only Madam Wang's direct son is left in the Wang family."

After Wang Hongshuo died, no one in the Wang family could take over the Jinning Wharf.Without the management of their superiors, the subordinates simply divided up the things in Wang's shop and packed up their bags and left.

Life for the Wang family immediately became difficult.

Seeing that Wang's family has no adult man to support the facade, some collateral relatives came to the door without any scruples to fight the autumn wind.

Wang Gouxiong always bullies men and women on weekdays, and ordinary people who have been bullied by Wang Gouxiong also come to him one after another to express their anger.

Wang Goubong's concubines and wives saw that the Wang family was not as good as before. Those whose natal families were rich took their daughters back early, while those whose natal families were poor could only stay honestly under Mrs. Wang's management, for fear that the main wife would sell them off.

In order to live a peaceful life, the Wang family had no choice but to excuse that Mrs. Wang was seriously ill due to the loss of her son.From then on, the door was closed to thank the guests, and the family closed the door and lived with their necks curled up.

And that fire also changed the fate of one person.

The night when the fire broke out, at Haishi.

A sudden knock on the door broke the original tranquility of the He Mansion.

"Who is it?" Why did someone come to the door at this hour?

The concierge of He's family suppressed his drowsiness, breathed heavily, walked towards the door, pushed open the side door next to him, and held a red lantern to shine a light on the person coming.

I saw that the face of the person in front of me was pitch black, and the facial features could not be distinguished clearly. Under the red light, it was even more frightening.

The dazed concierge took a closer look, and immediately became sober with fright. He took half a step back and was almost scared to the ground by someone who came.

It's late at night, where are the lonely ghosts coming from? !

Looking down at the shadow under the man's feet, the concierge recognized a big living person in front of him, and bluffed: "You, who are you! How did you knock on He's door!"

The visitor waved his hand at him: "I'm here to find Doctor He Xiao."

It turned out to be a patient, and the concierge secretly breathed a sigh of relief: "If you want to find a doctor, go to He's Medical Clinic, there is a doctor on duty at night to take care of emergencies."

But the man shook his head stubbornly: "My prescription was prescribed by Doctor He himself, and only Doctor He knows about it."

Seeing the patient's resolute words, the concierge twitched his lips, thinking that saving a life would be better than building a seven-level pagoda, so he agreed to inform him.

It was a little strange for Hong Ling to receive the notification from the concierge, but she still informed her young master.

"You said that only I know that person's prescription?"

He Wenyan sat up excitedly from the Babu bed, put on his shoes, and walked outside.

Seeing He Wenyan running out in only pajamas, Hong Ling hurriedly took a coat from the hanger, followed closely behind: "Master, put on some clothes."

He Wenyan took the outer shirt, put it on, and buckled it as he walked. When he reached the door of the house, the clothes were already neatly dressed.

The concierge was surprised to find that Young Master He actually came to pick him up in person, and he couldn't guess the identity of this person for a while.

Young Master He couldn't help but exclaimed when he saw Ming Lan outside the door: "You are..."

Ming Lan put her finger in front of her lips, signaling him to keep silent, and after looking around, he lowered his voice and said to He Wen: "Doctor He, I don't have a place to live now, so I can only come to seek refuge with you first."

He Wenyan was taken aback for a moment when he heard the words, then realized that Minglan had escaped from the Annan Pavilion, and hurriedly led her towards the house.

Hong Ling was startled when she saw that the young master actually brought back a man dressed in rags and whose facial features were so dirty that he couldn't see his facial features clearly.

His young master had just arranged a marriage with Boss Xue a few days ago, but now he brought an outsider back to his room.

The little girl frowned, and asked hesitantly, "Eldest Young Master, who is this person?"

Hong Ling's small eyes had already looked the thin man up and down.

But He Wenyan said with a smile: "You know this person."

"Miss Hongling." Minglan said hello to Hongling.

The girl Hongling's eyes widened instantly, she couldn't believe that the black coal ball in front of her was Minglan, the top brand in Annan Pavilion.

Young Master He rushed his silly girl to prepare hot water, and started to rummage through his clothes.

"You can stay at my house first. I happen to have some new summer clothes that my mother ordered someone to make. You and I are similar in shape. If you don't mind, I will wear them for you."

He Wenyan dug out a new robe from the closet and handed it to Ming Lan. After Ming Lan took it, she hurriedly said, "Of course I don't mind. I don't have a place to live now, and I don't know how to make a living. Can Master He let me live in the house?" Borrowing has been of great help to me."

He Wenyan took Ming Lan's hand, and found that his hand was covered with smoke and slight burns, and asked quickly, "What happened to you?"

"An Nan Pavilion is on fire, I took the opportunity to escape."

Minglan omitted the process of killing Wang Gouxiong and setting fire to his body, and only explained how she escaped from Annan Pavilion.

Young Master He didn't suspect him, he patted him on the shoulder and sighed: "It's good to escape."

"It's just that I'm penniless now, and I don't have the means to make a living. This is not a long-term solution after all." Ming Lan lowered her eyes. He knew that although Young Master He could help him for a while, he couldn't help him forever.

Now that the world outside is in chaos, it is indeed difficult for someone like him who has no energy and skills to find a way out.

Hearing this, Young Master He had an idea, he knew where there was a shortage of manpower.

The next day, He Wenyan took Minglan and set off in the He family's carriage early in the morning. The destination of this trip was the mine hospital.

When the two guards at the entrance of the mine hospital saw that it was Dr. He Xiao, they naturally let him go.

The mine hospital is still filled with the smell of traditional Chinese medicine and a little blood, which is a bit pungent at first.

He Wenyan led Minglan to see Old Doctor Zheng first, but Old Doctor Zheng frowned slightly at the sick young man in front of him, making Minglan feel guilty for a while.

"Give me your hand."

Minglan obeyed obediently and honestly.

Seeing old doctor Zheng holding Minglan's wrist and began to diagnose his pulse.

"Insufficiency in the womb, qi and blood are deficient, and need to be recuperated slowly."

Immediately, he turned around and said to He Wenyan, "Leave this child with me. I will take care of him."

Now it's all right, Minglan's identity has suddenly changed from a nurse to a patient.

Minglan objected, "I'm here to be a nurse, why bother to take care of me?"

Seeing that his patient didn't listen to the persuasion, old doctor Zheng said coldly: "With your body, let alone taking care of others, if you don't take care of it, you may not live until your thirties."

He Wenyan on the side thought for a moment, and persuaded: "Ming Lan, why don't you take care of your body at Dr. Zheng's place first, and then observe and learn how others treat patients. When you recover your body, you will have enough strength Nursing."

Minglan also knew that she was currently weak and not suitable for helping others with medical care, so she nodded in agreement with what Doctor He Xiao said.

Having settled Minglan's place, He Wenyan was about to leave, but was stopped by him again.

"what happened?"

Minglan's usually pale face now had a blush of embarrassment. He lightly pursed his lower lip and said after a long time: "Master He, I want to ask you to do me one last favor."

-

Jinning, Annan Pavilion.

The madam mother counted the notes in her purse, with a sad face.

The north was in trouble, and I finally moved the brothel to the south, but I didn't expect to encounter a fire again, burning down more than half of the good house, and even breaking down the head of the brothel.

The little money in hand is not enough to rebuild the house, the girls live in the inn every day, not only have no business and income, but the madam has to pay for them.

After much deliberation, the old bustard decided to sell all the girls in the courtyard and use a sum of money to buy a house in Jinning for the elderly.

At this moment, a middle-aged man dressed as a businessman came to Annan Pavilion and asked to redeem Shaoyao.

To the old bustard, it was like giving a pillow when he was sleepy, and he happily took the person to the Ke Inn immediately.

As soon as the old bustard opened the door, she found that the "daughter" who used to be full of make-up and had an infinite beauty was now facing the sky without her face, her curly hair was straightened and braided, and she was wearing an old-fashioned blue-gray robe.

The old bustard couldn't help but glared at Shao Yao, for fear that her attire would depreciate her value and prevent her from earning more money.

Shao Yao didn't care, seeing the old bustard bringing a strange man, she didn't even have a smile on her face.

"Shao Yao, this master wants to redeem you."

The old bustard pulled Shaoyao, pinched her chin, leaned in front of the man, flatteringly said: "Master, look at it. Shaoyao looks so handsome, if our Annan Pavilion hadn't been caught in a fire, I would not be willing to buy her!" Now, I only offer one thousand oceans."

A thousand oceans?

Shao Yao sneered secretly, it was just the money for a few pieces of jewelry she used to have.

The man was dissatisfied, he looked around Shaoyao, bargained and said, "Five hundred oceans."

Of course the old bustard was dissatisfied with the price, so angrily she slapped her thigh and stepped forward to break up with the man.

Shao Yao stood aside, watching the two bargaining like buying and selling livestock, with a blank expression on her face.

In the end, the man redeemed Shaoyao at a price of [-] oceans.

The old bustard sent the two of them downstairs to the inn with a pained face, where a carriage was waiting for Shao Yao.

Shao Yao walked to the carriage, she finally looked up at the vast blue sky, turned around and lifted the curtain and squeezed into the narrow carriage, to meet her unknown fate.

The author says:

In the transitional chapters, explain the whereabouts of Minglan and Shaoyao.

Then start Master He's medical career!
