The carriage departed again just as it came, covered as tightly as possible.
Qin Xiangxiang climbed down from the ladder and was about to dust herself off when she saw Qin Wanwan standing behind her.
"Don't think that I will be grateful to you." After Qin Wanwan finished speaking, she turned around and left.
Mrs. Wang followed her, smiled apologetically at Qin Xiangxiang, and followed her away.
Qin Xiangxiang was too lazy to talk, so he just returned to Baoxia and fell asleep. I didn't sleep well this time, and had a confused dream. In the dream, she had a scarf on her head and was riding on a little donkey. In the dream, the road was windy and difficult to walk. She accidentally fell off the donkey and ate a mouthful of yellow sand.
After this fall, Qin Xiangxiang woke up suddenly and looked at the bright spring scenery outside. He was confused for a while and didn't know where he was.
"Madam, madam." Hong Xiu called her as she pressed against the door.
"What's wrong?" Qin Xiangxiang struggled up and felt a little dizzy. Hey, I haven't taken any medicine for a day, and I feel weak again.
"Just now, people from Dali Temple came and took the Second Lady back. You were sleeping deeply, and the Second Lady didn't let us wake you up," Hong Xiu said.
Qin Xiangxiang asked: "Is it Liao Pingshi who is here?"
Hongxiu nodded: "Yes." She added, "Ma Sizhi is here too."
Qin Xiangxiang felt more at ease with Liao Haohai around than with him. She couldn't guarantee that Qin Wanwan would be fine, but Liao Haohai certainly could.
Qin Xiangxiang wiped his face with a handkerchief and felt that he was completely awake.
After walking out of the door, Mrs. Wang stood dejectedly in the courtyard, not knowing what she was thinking.
Seeing Qin Xiangxiang coming out, she suddenly realized: "The old slave said, there is nothing else to do today. It turns out that I haven't boiled the medicine for the madam yet. Madam, please wait a moment, the old slave will go back."
Tsk, Qin Wanwan was not here, but Mrs. Wang thought of her again.
Miss Fan was also there, and when she saw Qin Xiangxiang, she said: "Madam."
He called Madam, but he hesitated to speak.
"What's the matter?" Qin Xiangxiang stood under the bright spring light and squinted at Miss Fan.
Mrs. Fan was still coy, so Hongxiu spoke for her: "Just now Liao Pingshi said that Fan Yanguan has been convicted of the crime and has had his body examined. The body can be taken home by his family for burial."
Although Fan Yanguan committed a heinous crime, Mrs. Fan and Miss Fan were innocent after all.
"That's great." Qin Xiangxiang said.
Hongxiu added: "Sister Xiang'er has no money, so she wants to pay the eldest lady some money to place her father's body in the charity village for the time being."
Qin Xiangxiang raised his eyebrows slightly and looked at Miss Fan. Miss Fan had already lowered her head in shame. I just acted like a wolf today, and now I want to borrow money from the eldest lady...
"So that's what happened." Qin Xiangxiang said, "There's nothing that can't be said. Since you live in my Qin family restaurant, you are a member of the Qin family restaurant. Don't take what Mother Wang said before seriously. You don’t have to pay to live and eat here, and I still have to pay you wages.”
"But my grandma's medical fee and medicine money..." Mrs. Fan's cheeks turned red.
"That was given by Liao Pingshi. He is a great philanthropist who is always willing to give without asking for anything in return. If you really want to be grateful to him, then live a good life. When he needs you someday, you can repay him." Qin Xiangxiang said .
Miss Fan quickly nodded: "I'll listen to you."
Qin Xiangxiang gave Mrs. Fan a fifty-guan banknote: "Don't worry about paying it back. I'll deduct some from your salary every month until it's all deducted."
Miss Fan was sincerely grateful: "Thank you, Madam. Xiang'er will definitely repay Madam for your kindness."
"It doesn't have to be like this." Qin Xiangxiang said, "Let Uncle Ma set up the car and go with you. Uncle Ma can help with anything."
Miss Fan nodded with tears in her eyes: "Thank you, Madam."
Mrs. Fan helped Mrs. Fan out of the house. The spring was bright and beautiful, but Qin Xiangxiang was surprised to find that most of Mrs. Fan's hair was gray. It turns out that worrying can really make people grow old overnight.
Mrs. Fan also had tears in her eyes: "Mrs. Qin, thank you, thank you." As she said this, she leaned over to thank Qin Xiangxiang.
"Go quickly." Qin Xiangxiang quickly helped her.
Tian Xiang quietly stood behind Hongxiu and whispered: "Madam, you are really like a child who spreads money. Didn't you say that you have no money for a long time? How can you give Fan Xiang'er so much money?" Although the restaurant business is good, , but all they earn is meager hard-earned money. If you want to live a life like the Qin family's before, it's a long way off.
Hongxiu also whispered: "There is not much left, I am in charge of the money, why don't I save it? But sister Xiang'er is pitiful, she can't let her father not even enter Yizhuang."
Tianxiang clicked her tongue and said no more. Fan Xiang'er was pitiful, but at least she could still see her body. She and Hongxiu had been sold by their families since they were young, and they couldn't even remember their parents' faces. In the Qin family, she has the deepest feelings for Hongxiu and the master. They are like her family. However, if the life in Qin's restaurant can continue peacefully, it will be good.
"I'll prepare the food," she said.
After cutting her fingers twice more, her knife skills are now improving.
The spring bamboo shoots are extremely fresh and tender, and are best eaten when stir-fried with ham.
Qin Xiangxiang didn't plan to sell this ham and spring bamboo shoots, but only kept it for people in the restaurant to eat.
The custom of the Qin family restaurant is to eat before the evening market and then go about business. If you are hungry at night, cook a midnight snack. In this way, Qin's restaurant opens very early for dinner.
However, it was almost time for the evening market to open, and Fan Xianger and the other three of them had not returned yet.
Yizhuang is not far outside the city. It has been more than four hours since I left in the morning. Even if he has to keep vigil at Yizhuang, Uncle Ma should rush back.
Hongxiu was a little worried: "Is something wrong?"
As soon as he finished speaking, Uncle Hai came in and said, "Lao Ma is back. Madam, please come out and take a look."
When Qin Xiangxiang drove him out, Uncle Hai was helping Uncle Ma to sit on a small stool. Qin Xiangxiang looked at Uncle Ma. His forehead was bruised and his clothes were torn.
Qin Xiangxiang said quickly: "Uncle Hai, please call a doctor quickly."
"I'm not in the way, I'm not in the way." Uncle Ma waved his hands repeatedly, "Mrs. Fan and Miss Fan are the ones who are in trouble. If it weren't for Mu Langjun's help, I'm afraid..." At this point, Uncle Ma was even a little scared.
"What happened?" Mu Langjun was also involved. Qin Xiangxiang suddenly had an intuition that the Mu Langjun mentioned by Uncle Ma was probably Mu Ting.
"The Li family, that is, the family members of Li Yushi Li Zhuang, somehow found their way to Yizhuang and made a fuss in Fan Yanguan's mourning hall. The Li family said that everything was ordered by Li Feng. If it weren't for Fan Yanguan, It is impossible for Li Feng to kill his father. It might have been Fan Yanguan's hand that night, and Li Feng did not kill Li Zhuang at all."
In particular, Li Feng's wife Wang Lian'er, like a madman, turned the mourning hall of Yizhuang upside down.
Li Feng's father-in-law, Wang Xiucai, stood aside with sinister eyes, as if he wanted to cut the Fan family mother and daughter into pieces.
If Mu Langjun hadn't been in Yi Zhuang and helped him out of righteousness, he would probably have been beaten to death by the unreasonable Li family at this time.
"By the way, after Mu Langjun calmed down the storm, he asked the old slave to come back quickly to report that the eldest lady is safe." Uncle Ma said, a little confused, "It seems that Mu Langjun is very familiar with the eldest lady. But the old slave seems to have never seen him come to the restaurant."
"Of course I have been here before." Qin Xiangxiang said, but felt that his tone was urgent, and then added, "There are so many customers in the restaurant every day. It is only natural for Uncle Ma not to remember."
Uncle Ma also feels that he is old and has a bad memory.
"Did Mr. Mu Lang say anything else?"
"As I said, Mr. Mu Lang also said that he would protect Mrs. Fan and Mrs. Fan's safety."
Qin Xiangxiang frowned. Why did Mu Ting go to Yizhuang? Is it a coincidence, or has he been sending people to keep an eye on the Fan family mother and daughter?
