After Becoming the Villain Mother-in-Law, I Launch My Redemption Arc Chapter 200: Waiting Two More Years Is Okay Too
"Young master, could it be that Zhao Dahe took a bribe from soone and did it on purpose?"
After ng Yao left, a middle-aged man stepped out from behind the screen, frowning as he spoke.
"Are you questioning my judgnt of character?" Yun Ying’s voice was cold, devoid of any emotion.
"I wouldn’t dare." The middle-aged man imdiately lowered his head.
"Doing it on purpose, that is certain. But it’s not Brother Dahe who did it on purpose, it’s the person behind it." Yun Ying said calmly, "In the end, this incident was sothing that implicated Brother Dahe because of ."
Zhao Dahe may have offended soone, but those he had offended should not dare to be so blatant.
"You go investigate." Yun Ying instructed the middle-aged man.
"As you command." The middle-aged man respectfully retreated.
Yun Ying sat by the window, his long fingers gently tapping the table, his face cold and stern, his eyes like frost.
After this incident, he realized sothing: sotis, constant retreat does not bring about peace but rather encourages further encroachnt.
They thought he was easy to bully, testing his limits again and again.
Was he really easy to bully?
Never.
He just didn’t bother to contend with them.
Now, they had stepped on his bottom line.
After leaving from Yun Ying’s place, ng Yao visited the Hundred Herbs Hall again, picking up various dicines for promoting blood circulation, reducing bruising, and aiding the growth of broken bones.
When the young guy at the dicine counter asked her, she didn’t hide it, saying Zhao Dahe had hurt his leg and needed these dicines.
If this incident was the work of soone with intent, then surely soone was watching from the shadows.
Spreading the news could also serve to confuse their vision. Let them think they have succeeded, to temporarily avoid further troubles.
And the person behind it will certainly beco complacent.
After ng Yao left, the news quickly reached the ears of the female shopkeeper and Lu Luoxing.
Lu Luoxing imdiately instructed soone to fetch various supplents, then after so thought, took Zhao Xiaohua along to visit Zhao Dahe.
"Was it you who made a move?" Lu Tiannan asked the female shopkeeper.
The female shopkeeper shook her head, "The young master wants to win over ng Yao, how could I do such a foolish thing? It’s likely that Zhao Dahe was too flamboyant, beca an eyesore, and thus suffered a malicious attack."
"Flamboyant?"
"Not exactly flamboyant, Zhao Dahe topped the county examination. So, flamboyant or not, it’s not up to him. Being the top naturally attracts a lot of attention." The female shopkeeper said.
"Is soone envious of him and afraid he’ll shine in the upcoming state examination, so they struck preemptively?" Although Lu Tiannan had never participated in the imperial exams, he knew there were many unspeakable rules.
The female shopkeeper nodded, "That’s exactly the aning."
"That is truly despicable. Studying diligently all those years for the sake of succeeding in the exams and making a na for oneself. To shatter soone’s dreams is truly vicious! If luck is good, you might prepare for next ti. If not, and beco crippled, then the entire life’s ruined." Lu Tiannan lanted.
"Lu Dongjia has already taken things to visit him." The female shopkeeper said.
"Have so precious tonic herbs prepared for , I should also go." Lu Tiannan said.
Zhao Xiaohua and Wen Nuan returned ho with reddened eyes.
"Mother, what happened to my second brother?"
Usually, they would bicker endlessly, but that didn’t an they had bad feelings. As soon as she heard sothing happened to Zhao Dahe, she nearly panicked.
"Master, I learned from the young guy at the dicine counter. Such a big matter, why didn’t you tell ? How is senior brother?" Lu Luoxing asked.
"He’s inside, not seeing anyone." ng Yao said sadly, "Injured by accident, he can only rest for now."
"Accident? Fell down?" Lu Luoxing asked.
"No, it was two groups fighting. He was passing by and, unfortunately, got caught up in it." ng Yao said.
"Could there be other hidden stories? Master, don’t worry, I’ll have soone investigate." Lu Luoxing said.
"I don’t know either. We’ve only been in Qingzhou Prefecture for a few days, and haven’t offended anyone..." ng Yao said.
"I’ll send soone to check. If there’s any trickery, we definitely won’t miss it." Lu Luoxing said.
She didn’t believe in accident in any way.
"Yes, Ashing is right, it should be investigated. Haven’t offended anyone in Qingzhou Prefecture, but how about before? Ever offended anyone?" Lu Tiannan’s voice ca before he did, "Master, you mustn’t hide anything from us."
He had asked people on his way, and they pointed him the way, leading him directly there.
"What are you here for?" Lu Luoxing frowned.
"Is it allowed for you to care about senior brother and not ?" Lu Tiannan raised his eyebrows, "Master, these are nourishing herbs. Please accept them and use them to strengthen senior brother. As for the so-called accident, I’ll also have people investigate. Even if it was an accident, those people should not be let go. Also, should I persuade senior brother? As n, we should relate to each other better, right?"
"The door is closed..." ng Yao pointed at the tightly shut door.
"I can persuade him from outside." Lu Tiannan said.
ng Yao did not refuse, and Lu Tiannan confidently went to the door, "Senior brother, as a man, temporary setbacks don’t an anything. You can’t give up just because of a little setback. If you miss this exam, there’s always the next..."
Originally, Lu Luoxing was frustrated that because she wasn’t a man, Lu Tiannan outshone her.
After hearing this.
Really?
Would an injured, dejected person want to hear this?
What kind of absurd ’a little setback’ is this!
Is Lu Tiannan sure he’s persuading, and not gloating?
"Get lost!"
The angry shout ca from inside the room.
Lu Tiannan’s lengthy speech abruptly ended.
"He can’t listen right now, Tiannan, thank you." ng Yao apologized, "Perhaps you should head back first? Once he’s cald down, he definitely will listen to what you have to say."
Lu Tiannan was embarrassed on the outside, furious internally.
Ungrateful.
He brought nourishing herbs and preached sincerely, and got told to get lost?
Ha, serves right, for getting injured.
"I can understand senior brother’s current mood, then I’ll take my leave." Lu Tiannan said.
"I won’t see you off, take care." ng Yao said.
"Let Xiaohua stay at ho for a few days so she can spend more ti with senior brother. Master, classes can be postponed." Lu Luoxing said.
"The injury has been treated, and it is what it is, can’t be reversed. Now it’s up to him to accept the reality. Xiaohua staying ho won’t help, better let her return with you and Wen Nuan. Keep an eye on her for , don’t let her slack off. Also, if convenient, have her and Wen Nuan help out at the counter more, so they beco more familiar with the various herbs." ng Yao said.
"Alright, I’ll arrange it." Lu Luoxing said.
"I won’t see you off either, Xiaohua, don’t worry about your second brother, I’ll talk to him properly," ng Yao said.
"Second brother, don’t be sad." Zhao Xiaohua said through tears, "Mother’s dical skills are good, she’ll definitely cure you. At most, at most we’ll just delay by two years. You’re still so young, two years isn’t too long!"
