Dongxiang appears, which is surprising.
Bai Song's expression was unnatural.
It can be seen that Adou lied before coming.
Dongxiang was very anxious, and regardless of Bai Song's consideration, she knelt down to Bai Song in front of him.
Bai Song stopped him and asked in shock: "Why is this?"
"Mr. Bai, you must save me. I can't stay in Ji County any longer. I have only one servant and I dare not leave the city. Please take me in, Mr. Bai."
How familiar is this scene?
Looking back on Caihe's experience, isn't it the same as Dongxiang's?
They were all maids of the Zheng family. Caihe just went out to buy a bag of salt, which had only the slightest possibility of exposing the problems of the Zheng family.
The Zheng family was afraid of this and wanted to eradicate it.
Today, Dongxiang saw the secret of the Zheng family with her own eyes. How could the Zheng family allow her to survive?
What's more, Touka is a witness. It is very possible to ask her to testify out of gratitude for saving her and a counterattack for her own life.
Thinking of this, Bai Song had a good reason.
"I can take you with me, but you must also understand that following me will be very dangerous."
"It's better to follow Mr. Bai than to be alone. Mr. Bai can make the Zheng family feel fearful. If you follow Mr. Bai, even if you die, Dongxiang will not complain."
Bai Song nodded: "That's the best thing you can think of."
With that said, Bai Song looked around, and then called Dongxiang: "If you have anything to say, let's talk about it when we get back."
Bai Song changed his residence again, and still stayed in the Xia family's wine shop in the old city of Jixian through the relationship of the Xia family.
Niu Da, Caihe and others all live there, and there is no extra activity on weekdays.
Bai Song didn't let them do anything else.
After the last experience, Bai Song didn't want anyone to die because of his personal hatred.
Before coming, Bai Song never thought that he could investigate such a big thing.
Such a thing could put one's life in danger if one were not careful. If he had known this, Bai Song would never have brought such people with him.
But Bai Song didn't want to just ignore them. Everyone followed him out of trust in him.
These gangsters are not treacherous and evil people. They have been reduced to the lower class and have been forced to do nothing.
Thinking about the people in the Zheng family who are arrogant and talk about evil, these little gangsters are just a drop in the bucket.
Bai Song began to prevent these gangsters from renovating the house and planned to convert it into a medicine shop, so that these gangsters could make a living by collecting herbs from the nearby mountains.
In addition to inquiring about information every day, Bai Song spent the rest of his time teaching them how to identify medicinal materials and simple medical knowledge.
The gangsters were attentive. They had experienced life and death with Bai Song, and they seemed to cherish their lives even more after the disaster. By staying honest every day, each and every one of them became a good and obedient student.
Bai Song came back with Dongxiang, and the two people at the door immediately looked around.
"Don't worry, no one is following you."
After leaving a few words, Bai Song invited Dongxiang into the courtyard.
Dongxiang came in and met Caihe face to face.
The two maids, who both belonged to the Zheng family, recognized each other at a glance.
Although they are not in the same family, they are the personal maids of the ladies of each family. When the ladies get together, the maids have more or less seen them.
Two acquaintances sat together and shared each other's experiences, chatting but not having fun.
Bai Song was also sitting in the courtyard, watching the birds lingering on the courtyard wall in a daze.
The weather seems to be getting warmer recently, and even the birds are beginning to appear.
He glanced at Niu Da not far away and asked casually: "What day is it now?"
"Twenty-fourth of the twelfth lunar month."
"Twenty-fourth of the twelfth lunar month..."
Bai Song was in a daze for a while, and it turned out that it was New Year's Eve.
People who are lonely at heart are more sensitive to festivals. Seeing the approaching New Year's Eve, not only are they without friends, but they are also uncertain about life and death.
I wonder if I will ever have the chance to reunite with my family... with my family in this life.
"Master Bai."
Niu Da's voice suddenly appeared in his ears, interrupting Bai Song's thoughts.
"Um?"
"What are your plans for the near future?"
"No plans, just rest."
Niu Da frowned: "Master Bai always goes out alone these days. Could it be that seeing that Niu Da is a cripple makes him look down on Niu Da?"
"What are you talking about?"
"Master Bai, although Niu Da has no education, he can still see that Master Bai is a person who does big things. After Niu Da has been around for so long, it is rare that he can make up his mind to do something serious, but he just lost his hand. Why is Master Bai so cold? Already?"
"You should rest well if I ask you to. You are a human being, not a tool. You were hurt because of me. Even if I don't do anything in the future, I will try my best to repay you."
"Master Bai, I don't want to repay you!"
"I know you don't want to repay you, but I want to repay you! I feel guilty in my heart. If I don't repay you, I will feel panicked. If you really think about me, then rest honestly. You have to do things for me more and more, I The more uneasy I feel, the more guilty I feel. This is my request. For the next time, you should do nothing and run this pharmacy well. Only in this way can I alleviate the guilt in my heart. During this time, After that, I feel at ease and will naturally let you do things."
Niu Da made a loud noise, but he didn't expect Bai Song to say such a thing, and he didn't know what to say for a moment.
Bai Song stood up and called to Dongxiang, who was wiping away tears: "Dongxiang, come in."
Bai Song turned around and entered the house, waiting for Dongxiang to arrive and then closed the door.
"Mr. Bai..."
"Sit down first." Bai Song sat down on the chair, "I have an idea, it may be a bit dangerous, and I want to follow the girl's advice."
"Young master, you can say it, but it's an endless kindness to allow Dongxiang to stay."
"If you want you to accuse the Zheng family of colluding with the Turks..."
Bai Song paused for a moment in the middle of his words, but glanced at Dongxiang.
Dongxiang became obviously nervous after hearing this, and said repeatedly: "Mr. Bai, please don't provoke the Zheng family again!"
"Um?"
"The young lady was ordered by the master to test Mr. Bai. Now that the Zheng family knows Mr. Bai's true identity, if they don't find a way to leave Jixian at this time, the consequences will be disastrous."
"Did you hear what I said to Adou?"
Dongxiang lowered her head and responded softly.
"Mr. Bai is shrewd all his life but confused for a while."
This was said in a low voice, but Bai Song could still hear it clearly and smiled: "It doesn't matter, Adou is not that kind of girl, I believe her."
Dongxiang's eyes flickered, a little unbelievable, and she didn't know where Mr. Bai got his confidence?
Does he really think that the young lady will not tell everything for the sake of the entire family?
Dongxiang didn't answer, but Bai Song was also thinking deeply. After a moment of silence, he finally decided on something and nodded affirmatively: "Well, Adou is that Adou."
For a moment, Dongxiang suddenly felt that this shrewd young man was so stupid.
It's a matter of life and death, how can you trust others so easily?
"Miss Dongxiang, it's your turn. Think carefully whether you are willing to take the risk to testify."
Dongxiang thought for a long time and shook her head silently: "Mr. Bai, this matter is difficult to obey. It's not that Dongxiang is greedy for life and afraid of death. It's just that the young lady treats me well. This matter is of great importance. If the court convicts the Zheng family, the young lady will be implicated. For other matters, I will give you my due. I can agree to this, but this is not allowed."
Seeing Dongxiang so determined, Bai Song felt more at ease.
He didn't want to see a little maid make a righteous act of killing relatives. Bai Song didn't dare to keep such a woman by his side.
Bai Song nodded: "Okay, since you have decided, I won't force you. Just stay here for the time being."
"Mr. Bai, what about you? What are your plans?"
"Now that you know my true identity, you naturally also know the grudges between me and the Zheng family. Whether it is public or private, everything will not end so easily."
…
News came from Jixian County.
Whoever can cure Master Zheng's illness will be rewarded with a hundred taels of silver.
A reward of one hundred taels of silver is rare in the world.
As the saying goes, there must be a brave man under a heavy reward. As the news spread, more and more doctors came here.
The Zheng family has the rules of the Zheng family. If you want to treat the master of the Zheng family, you need to be screened at all levels.
If you meet a quack doctor halfway, instead of curing the old man's illness, he will make it worse.
Who is responsible for this?
Doctor Zhenxing, all doctors who signed up for consultation were uniformly arranged at the Tianjia farmhouse in the suburbs outside the city.
This place is located in a remote area and is the ancestral property of the Zheng family. The farmhouse has several hectares of fertile land and is one of the few fields in Youzhou that is still under cultivation.
A farmhouse with few visitors.
It was unusually lively today, attracting many doctors.
The Zheng family's housekeeper huddled under the shed to warm himself by the fire, looking at the doctor in front of the door and a mysterious girl beside the doctor.
The news spread this time about asking a famous doctor to treat the Zheng family master was not an internal decision of the Zheng family, but a sudden whim of this mysterious girl.
What's even more outrageous is that his master actually agreed and said that everything would be done according to the girl's instructions.
Who is this girl? She can actually use the Zheng family's money to do things for her, and the family owner is not dissatisfied at all.
For such an unknown young lady, the housekeeper knew that it was better not to offend her, so he stayed away from her.
"Miss, is this method really feasible?"
The military doctor stood guard at the door of the farmhouse. While watching the doctors coming in and out, he said to Juan Xiu, who was sitting next to him.
The handsome young lady has a picturesque face, but there is a heroic spirit in her eyes that prevents others from thinking she is a woman.
Hearing what the military doctor said, Xiaosheng frowned and said, "That man is talented but not moral. He has lost his medical skills. Today, he will be rewarded heavily. If a money-grubbing person like him is really hiding in Jixian County, he will definitely come out."
As he spoke, he whispered: "As long as he dares to show up, hum! Mr. Liu, are you ready to arrange the manpower?"
"Miss, don't worry, everything is arranged according to your arrangement."
Xiaosheng nodded; "As long as he comes, we will take him away directly. This visit has been delayed for a long time, and grandpa's illness may not be able to wait any longer."
The military doctor looked at the long queue in front of him and frowned: "I have seen many people. Have you seen the miracle doctor?"
Xiaosheng also frowned and shook his head: "All the doctors here are in their seventies and eighties, how can there be any young ones?"
"Miss, is that miracle doctor really a young man?"
"Oh, how many times have I told you, how can I make fun of grandpa's illness?"
