The Jiang family was well-off, and Qiao Weimin had squandered most of the family property. He was a person who liked to take advantage of others, and now that the Jiang family owed him, he naturally had to get back what he owed.
Qiao Weimin was much more of a jerk than Qiao Hongye. He refused to leave and made a ruckus that the neighbors knew about.
He kept saying that Jiang Xia had ruined her daughter’s innocence and even said that he had raped her. Father and Mother Jiang were exhausted and had to pay another 100,000 yuan to shut Qiao Weimin up.
However, this was not the end. Qiao Weimin had directly stuffed his daughter into the Jiang family and said,” Take responsibility.
He was not stupid. The tea house and clothing store of the Jiang family were all gold. As long as his daughter was around, he would be able to benefit from them in the future.
Jing Yunzhao did not know what had happened to the Jiang family. It was a Saturday, so she stayed in Old Man Xu’s courtyard.
The old man sipped her wine and nodded in satisfaction. His face was a little red as he instructed her to pack the herbs.
“You know quite a lot. This wine is not bad…” Old Man Xu grinned, and a rare kind smile appeared on his face.
Jing Yunzhao had always found the old man strange. He rarely smiled, and his attitude was always cold to everyone. He was even more of a drinker than Grandpa Gan, and he would get drunk whenever he got drunk. However, he would go crazy when he got drunk, and he would lock himself in the room full of herbs in the backyard. He would often knock over the herbs, as if he had a deep hatred for them.
However, even so, he looked at her differently every time.
Especially after he was drunk, he looked at her with a very kind gaze. There was even a few tears that fell once, which really scared her.
“Elder Xu, although this wine is good, you should drink less. Otherwise, you will have a headache again in the morning.”Jing Yunzhao was very respectful and polite, as if she was her teacher.
The old man responded in relief, but his face still showed no emotion.”This old man knows, you little brat, don’t say anything more!”
“Xingyuan! Give her that medicine box.” The next second, the old man shouted again.
Uncle Xingyuan was stunned, but he was very obedient. He took out a card. This card was green, and there was a very complicated fragrance on it. There was nothing written on it, but there was a golden licorice printed on it. No one knew what its purpose was.
“This is the post for the medicine shop competition. The winner will get some rights. Master is doing you a favor by letting you go. The time is on this licorice painting.”Uncle Xingyuan explained.
Jing Yunzhao was confused, but she nodded seriously when she saw the old man’s confused state again.
“One more thing. There are many people in Serene City who want to seek treatment from Master, but they were all rejected by him previously. However, in the future, those patients will be handed over to you. Master has already given them your phone number.”Xingyuan added.
Jing Yunzhao looked at Elder Xu in surprise.
Although Elder Xu was a master in medicine, his medical skills were not bad. It was not surprising that someone asked him to treat them. However, now that he had introduced her to those patients, the kindness was not small.
She was still young, and no one would be willing to treat others. However, Elder Xu’s move would definitely allow her to grow rapidly.
“Thank you, Elder Xu.” Jing Yunzhao said sincerely.
Sometimes, when she saw the old man like this, she felt sad. However, she could not ask more about the other party’s private affairs. She only wanted to be more respectful and polite in the future..
