The Daily Life of a Down-on-Hard-Life Medicine Girl Supporting Her Family

Chapter 348

"The entire Zhang family, over a hundred people, are all in jail. Was that your doing?"

Since everything was so clear, Zhao Minghua felt it wouldn't be right to deny it.

"Yes, what's wrong? Are you feeling sorry for me?"

“You…” Chunnuan didn’t expect that someone wouldn’t be bothered by this old jealousy: “Why would I feel sorry for a stranger? I’m just worried about you…”

"Don't worry, nobody knows me."

As spring warms up... men are indeed becoming more and more powerful; there's nothing they can't do, only things you can't imagine.

Sometimes, Chunnuan thinks that perhaps it was inappropriate for her grandfather to take the middle path back then.

The capital city is a big melting pot; one should not have the heart to harm others, but one must be wary of others.

If my grandfather had had his own connections back then, the case of the Imperial Concubine could have been avoided.

Now that Chun Ning has entered the imperial court as an official, there are some things we still need to pay attention to, so as not to repeat the same mistakes.

I'll talk to my father about this when I go back to my parents' home.

The Xiao family has now split up.

The father and mother, who had never been involved in anything before, started to take charge.

If we're talking about good fortune, it has to be the mother.

She had never had to worry much while living in her parents' home since childhood. After marrying into the Xiao family, with her elder sister-in-law, Madam Xu, managing the household affairs, she didn't have to worry about anything either.

Later, when the Xiao family ran into trouble, Chunnuan took over all the household affairs.

Now that they've returned to Beijing and separated their households, Chun Ning's wife can take charge of things.

"Nuan Nuan, I've thought about this too, but wouldn't it be too conspicuous if our family did it?"

Spring is here... Who told you to put it out in the open?
So, her father really is no good.

You should ask Chun Ning about this.

“Sister, I am just a weak scholar…” Before she could finish speaking, Chun Ning suddenly remembered something: “Sister, perhaps I can do something.”

"Tell me."

Seeing Chun Ning's eyes light up, Chun Nuan felt there was hope.

"On my way back to Beijing last year, I happened to see someone who was seriously injured..."

Chunnuan stared wide-eyed at her younger brother in disbelief.

He's really brave!

I've offended the people in the Prime Minister's residence!
It's important to know that in the final moments of the old emperor's reign, the prime minister held absolute power.

The person Chun Ning saved was the Prime Minister's mortal enemy, a member of the martial arts world. He was being hunted down by assassins hired by the Prime Minister's mansion and was seriously injured, so he hid in the guest room where Chun Ning was staying.

“I was a little scared at the time, but as a doctor, it is my duty to save lives, so I treated his wounds and gave him a bottle of pills.”

"Did you just tell him who you are?"

This silly little brother, what if he runs into someone like Mr. Dongguo or the wolf?
"He recognized me."

what?
"He saw the medicine bottle and said it belonged to Physician Xiao's family," Chun Ning said. "I was also very surprised at the time. How did he recognize her?"

“He said his father had been treated by his grandfather with those kinds of pills,” Chun Ning said. “After he recovered, he left before dawn, saying that he was willing to serve the Xiao family if there was anything he could do to help.”

At the time, Chun Ning did not expect to use a person from the martial arts world.

Now it seems that it was all preordained by fate.

Do you know where to find him?

"I know, he left a message."

"What's your name? I'll have your brother-in-law look it up."

"it is good."

There was nothing they could do. Although the Xiao family were native Beijingers, they really had no connections whatsoever.

He needs his brother-in-law's support to build his own power base. "You said Chun Ning knows Ye Yi Hai?"

"You look quite surprised?"

What kind of remarkable person is Ye Yihai?
"He was a well-known figure in the martial arts world, hated evil as if it were his enemy, and was a good person, but because of this, he also made quite a few enemies."

Zhao Minghua shook his head: "It's inappropriate for Chun Ning to want to use this person."

Chunnuan nodded. If there really were many enemies, then the Xiao family was unusable.

"However, it would be a good option to ask him to introduce some reliable people to work as Chun Ning's bodyguards."

"Okay, I'll talk to Chun Ning about it."

Chun Ning was very surprised to hear this. She never expected that the person she had casually treated was actually a big shot in the martial arts world.

My brother-in-law means he wants me to help him find a nurse?
We can just hire a few strong men to guard the place; there's no need to go out into the martial arts world to find them.

“The person he recommends must be capable. You can check him out and keep the suitable one for your use.”

This kid is still too green and inexperienced, which is understandable.

However, he's already considered quite good.

how to say?

My eldest uncle, father, and third uncle were actually the generation that my grandfather spoiled; they couldn't take any responsibility when things happened.

Chun Ning is not yet twelve years old, but he is already a little man in the family. He has also been tempered a lot over the years.

He's always been a gentle and mild-mannered person, and he's never really been involved in this kind of fighting and killing. He's always been a bit naive and presumptuous.

Chun Ning went to Moyuxuan Bookstore.

"What kind of book does this gentleman need?"

"I'm looking for a rare, out-of-print book that's been hidden for many years, something like Yi."

The shopkeeper was taken aback, looked Chun Ning up and down, and then nodded.

"This book is indeed in our bookstore, but it is quite old and requires careful searching. Please, sir, have a seat in the private room on the second floor. I will go and find it for you right away."

"Thank you."

Chun Ning sat down in a private room on the second floor, and tea was immediately served.

The tea was ready when there was a knock on the door.

"Young Master Xiao, it really is you."

Ye Yihai clasped his hands in a fist and said, "I left in a hurry that day and didn't have time to thank Young Master Xiao for saving my life."

"No, no, Master Ye. I apologize for disturbing you today."

"It is an honor for me, Ye, to have Young Master Xiao visit." Ye Yihai was a man of the martial arts world and never beat around the bush. He went straight to the point: "I wonder what brings you here, Young Master Xiao?"

"I wouldn't call it giving you guidance, but I need your help, Master Ye."

Chun Ning shared her thoughts.

"Should we call a few ambulances?"

"Yes, he's somewhat skilled and trustworthy."

Ye Yihai nodded; he understood and knew what kind of talent Chun Ning was looking for.

"Alright, Young Master Xiao, come to the bookstore to meet me in three days."

"Thank you for your trouble, Master Ye."

When Chun Ning walked out of Moyuxuan Bookstore, she was still a little dazed. Can you believe that the place where weak scholars often frequented in the bustling city of the capital was the place where Ye Yihai, who was famous in the martial arts world, was hiding?
On one side is poetry, books, and literature; on the other is swords and shadows. Indeed, a minor hermit hides in the city, while a major hermit hides in the wilderness!

Three days later, Xiao Chun-ning met six young men, all of whom looked energetic and harmless. For a moment, Xiao Chun-ning even wondered: Could they really fight and kill and find intelligence?

“These three are my fellow disciples, and these three are my junior disciples.” Xiao Yihai turned to the six of them and said, “Young Master Xiao saved my life. He wants to find a few guards. You can talk to him first, and if both sides agree, you can discuss other things. I have something else to attend to, so please excuse me.”

"Thank you for your trouble, Master Ye." Chun Ning was quite moved. Ye Yihai was indeed a man of the martial arts world, not bothered by formalities at all.
