Zhou Zhengsheng's death made Wang Huiming very afraid of Si Ning.
He followed Si Ning out, not getting close, especially staying far away from Qiu Ju.
He was afraid that he and Zhou Zhengsheng would end up the same way. When he met Si Ning for the first time, Si Ning gave him a slap in the face.
When he stood at the yamen gate and saw those yamen servants, Wang Huiming opened his mouth and was about to shout.
He didn't believe Si Ning.
But before he opened his mouth, he felt a pain all over his body. No matter how much he tried to make a sound, he could only see his mouth open, but no sound came out.
An official saw his face flushed from suppressing pain and came over to ask him what was wrong.
Wang Huiming opened his mouth again, and something pressed against his waist.
The hard touch made him dare not move, and he shook his head in fear.
The officer felt strange and looked at Si Ning beside him.
Si Ning smiled back, her appearance could easily confuse people.
Seeing that she was gentle and courteous, and that she came out with Wang Huiming, the officer didn't think much about it.
He smiled and said hello, then stepped aside.
Si Ning looked at the long queue and whispered to Wang Huiming beside him.
"Master Wang, this makes it difficult for me to do this. I didn't want to kill you, but if you want to die, Guanyin can't save you..."
Wang Huiming's whole body was shaking, and he nodded tremblingly, signaling to Si Ning that he would be obedient.
Si Ning worked on his mute point, and Wang Huiming begged for mercy in a low voice.
"Mrs. Lu, I really don't dare anymore. Don't kill me."
Si Ning smiled, "Don't worry, I'm still waiting for Mr. Wang to go back and make a name for me. How could I kill you? Besides, I have some friendship with Mrs. Other and I won't let her become a widow."
Wang Huiming was surprised, "You mean Wan'er?"
Si Ning nodded, "But whether you want to live or die, it all depends on Mr. Wang's decision. If you think that with these government officials here, you can walk out intact, I advise you not to have this dream."
Wang Huiming understood the implication of Si Ning's words, opened his mouth and closed it again, avoiding her eyes, "I can't."
Si Ning smiled and took back the dagger at his waist, and Wang Huiming secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
He raised his hand to wipe the cold sweat from his forehead, swallowed again, and felt a little more at ease.
Si Ning signaled him to start, and Wang Huiming nodded hurriedly.
"That is Mrs. Lu. Can you buy medicine now?"
"Master Wang, we are not buying medicine, we are distributing medicine."
Wang Huiming was stunned, but Si Ning had already spoken for him.
"Originally, this medicine is indeed for sale, but Mr. Wang is sympathetic. He plans to buy these medicines with his own money and distribute them to everyone. Mr. Wang cares about everyone. Shouldn't everyone thank Mr. Wang? .”
If he could faint, Wang Huiming would probably have fainted hundreds of times.
Listen to the people below expressing their gratitude to him loudly and cheering his name.
Wang Huiming was heartbroken, but he was also proud of the people's praise.
But when I think of all the money spent, my heart aches.
Distributing medicine did not require Si Ning and Wang Huiming to be present. The two of them went back to the government office without making a fool of themselves.
The backyard of the Yamen was set aside to entertain Zhou Zhengsheng and Wang Huiming.
Now that Zhou Zhengsheng is dead, Si Ning and Qiu Ju move in.
Wang Huiming had been sitting aside and observing Si Ning's expression. When he saw her looking over, he quickly looked away and called out with a smile.
"Mrs. Lu."
Si Ning smiled and raised the teacup in his hand, and Wang Huiming hurriedly raised it too.
"Mrs. Lu, look, I've done everything you asked me to do. Is the rest..."
He wanted to leave here quickly. It didn't matter whether the medicine was useful or not. He didn't need any money or achievements. He just wanted to go home and save his life.
Si Ning said, "Master Wang, now that you have given medicine to save people, the people at the border are praising you. When you go back, the emperor will definitely give you a promotion. Will Master Wang give up such incredible wealth?"
"I...this is all Mrs. Lu's credit and has nothing to do with Wang."
Si Ning chuckled lightly, "Why do I, a woman, want all this credit? I don't want to be an official. All I want is reputation. Just don't let others bully you in the future. As for promotions and promotions, that's all your men's business. I am not interested."
If he hadn't witnessed what happened in the prison with his own eyes, Wang Huiming would have believed what Si Ning said.
But now he not only couldn't believe it, but also looked at Si Ning warily.
"Mrs. Lu, don't try to seduce me. If you need anything, just ask me."
"The Ministry of Revenue has approved disaster relief funds for you, right? I want Mr. Zhou's share."
The emperor sent people down to control the epidemic, so there was no reason not to allocate money.
She had seen the prescriptions prescribed by Zhou Zhengsheng. They were all worthless medicines. They cost at most one penny, but were sold for a hundred pence. Not to mention they made a lot of money out of it, and the disaster relief funds must also have gone into their pockets. .
The reason for getting rid of Zhou Zhengsheng was because he harmed me one after another and refused to let him survive. Why should I have a Bodhisattva heart?
But that's not all, she also wants money.
Wang Huiming looked at her with an unclear expression.
"Mrs. Lu, I don't know where Master Zhou keeps his money?"
That means the spoils have been divided.
Si Ning nodded, "Since you don't know, why don't Master Wang go down and ask Master Zhou for me?"
Wang Huiming was shocked and didn't think that Si Ning's words were just talk.
He took a deep breath and said, "But I heard that Mr. Zhou opened an account at Qianfeng Bank on South Street."
"Thank you."
Si Ning stood up with a smile and walked out with Qiu Ju.
As soon as he walked out of the door, he saw Si Yihan walking towards him.
"Ma'am, he's here."
Si Ning was slightly stunned and saw a familiar figure beyond him.
Lu Hanxiao stood looking at her from a distance, his eyes unclear.
Si Ning hesitated for a moment and stepped forward, "Why are you here?"
As soon as he finished speaking, his wrist was held by the person opposite and he was pulled into the carriage.
It’s impossible to go to the bank!
Lu Hanxiao was dealing with official documents along the way and didn't even look at Si Ning.
Si Ning felt awkward. He came so well but ignored him. It would be better not to come.
The carriage stopped in front of a village. Lu Hanxiao got out of the carriage first without looking at Si Ning.
Si Ning was also furious and reluctantly followed him out of the carriage.
Ming Han stood aside and gave her a weak hand, speaking to her in a low voice.
"Master is very worried about you. Madam, for this reason, please don't get along with him for a while."
Ming Han knew that Lu Hanxiao had a tough mouth, so how could he coax his wife so well?
It has to be his assist!
Si Ning said nothing and went straight into the courtyard.
An old man saw her coming in and rushed to greet her.
"Greetings, madam."
He is the manager here. He has been here since Lu Hanxiao bought this house in the border area.
Si Ning nodded, "Where is he?"
"The master has gone to the study and has already told the old slave that your yard is ready."
Si Ning followed him inside, not forgetting to give instructions to Ming Han.
"Qiu Ju is still in the Yamen, please take her to where we are going and then bring her back."
The money earned after so much effort cannot be taken advantage of by others.
I'm afraid Zhou Zhengsheng's death will not be suppressed for long, and the money must be obtained as soon as possible.
