Chapter 118 Recruiting tribute ([-])

There was a trace of panic in the man's stunned eyes.

He never dreamed that he would be trapped by a yellow-haired girl!

The man knew very well that he had never come to this shop for consultation at all, so how could the shop have any records of him?

"Save people, save people..."

Just at this time, an old woman helped an old man with gray hair through the door. The old man's face was purple, he had difficulty breathing, and he was in danger of fainting and suffocating at any time.

Seeing this, the man stepped forward and knocked the old woman away, stretched out his hand and pinched the old man's neck. He didn't care that the old man had begun to roll his eyes, and said viciously, "You guys are obviously bullying people too much. Since you don't want to let anyone go, If I'm good, then no one of you can have a good time!"

Seeing the man's ferocious expression, the old woman was so frightened that she knelt on the ground and kept kowtowing to beg for mercy, "We have no enmity with the uncle, so please let go of this old bone in my family..."

This old couple is an old resident who lives nearby. Everyone who runs a drug store around them knows them. They have no children in their lives. They only rely on each other for life. They usually make a living by scavenging.

Originally, people in the surrounding shops were still outside watching the excitement, but seeing this situation, everyone's expressions darkened. They couldn't hurt their parents, and they couldn't harm their wives and children, let alone this pair of innocent old people?
In the medicine shop, the man's face covered with abscesses showed no mercy. He kicked the old woman kneeling in front of him away and said viciously, "Who made this shop owe me money? You guys broke in today." Even if you are unlucky!"

Su Chengying's eyes were cold, but her heart was already filled with anger.

Sure enough, what my grandfather once said was right. There is no hell in this troubled world. This world is hell.

"Ohh Ohh ohh……"

The old man, who was breathing unevenly, saw his wife being bullied. Even if he didn't have the strength to speak, he slowly reached out and put his hand on the man's arm, trying to stop the man.

Seeing this, the man's face became even more ferocious. He grabbed the old man's neck and lifted him up, "Old man, since you don't know how to live or die, don't blame me for being rude!"

"Father..." Outside the door, the fifth prince spoke in a low voice, his clenched fists already unable to bear it.

Emperor Liang originally wanted to see how Su Chengying would respond, but now he couldn't stand it anymore, so he nodded and said, "Go..."

But before he could finish his words, he saw Su Chengying's originally straight waist slowly bending in the drug store.

Everyone inside and outside the door watched this scene in silence.

At this moment, no matter whether they were ordinary people or doctors, looking at Su Chengying's bent waist, they all felt their throats were choked and their chests were blocked.

No one knows that Su Chengying would rather put her own dignity into dust in order to save the lives of others!
He has the overall situation in mind and does not care about his own face...

How many people can do it? !
Su Chengying faced the ground and said, "Since you have determined that it is our fault, no matter whether you apologize or make up for it, it is our responsibility. Please let me go. I will send someone to get you some money."

The shopkeeper looked at Su Chengying's bent waist, feeling hurt and angry, but not only could he not say anything, but he had to bow humbly to the man together with Su Chengying.

The man sneered, "Get me some money quickly!"

Su Chengying looked at the shopkeeper and said, "Go get it!" The shopkeeper didn't dare to delay and quickly called the boy to the accounting room at the back.

Seeing this, the man threw the old man on the ground like trash, and then sat on the stool swaggeringly, crossing his legs.

Su Chengying hurriedly helped the old man up together with the shopkeeper and ordered, "Save him quickly."

"Okay." The shopkeeper agreed and hurriedly carried the old man behind him.

"How could it be like this?" A familiar voice came from far away, and Mrs. Liu was seen swinging into the shop holding a handkerchief and blocking the shopkeeper.

In the past, the shopkeepers all despised Madam Liu's way of making money from the bottom of their hearts. It was just that at that time, they were quiet people and in order to keep their jobs, they had to join in the conspiracy.

But now, with their leader protecting them, why should they fear Madam Liu?
Not to mention talking to Mrs. Liu, the shopkeeper didn't even look at her, and carried the old man on his back to the medicine shop next door.

Madam Liu was embarrassed, and quickly came to Su Chengying's side and said, "Your Highness, the princess, is delicate and expensive, how can she get entangled with these merchants? Since it was the shop's negligence, it's better to pay for it and settle the matter quickly."

These words seemed to be speaking for Su Chengying, but in fact, they were clearly reminding Su Chengying of her identity and forcing Su Chengying not to go back on her word without paying back money, otherwise she would be using her power to bully others.

The eldest lady, Mrs. Liu, knew her calculations well. As long as Su Chengying gave the money, the misdiagnosis would be confirmed. Not to mention that the emperor would never give tribute to Su Chengying. Even Su Chengying's shop would plummet in the future.

Just at this time, the clerk ran over with the banknote. Seeing this, Mrs. Liu was about to snatch it away, but Su Chengying held her wrist tightly.

Madam Liu was stunned, "Is Her Royal Highness planning to go back on her word?"

"The money has to be given, but not now, so why should the eldest lady be impatient." Su Chengying smiled faintly, but the strength of her hand did not decrease. She snatched the thousand taels of silver notes and returned them to the boy's hand.

Seeing this, the man stood up and glared angrily, "If you don't give me any money, I will come here to cause trouble! Let's see who else dares to come to your place for medical treatment!"

Su Chengying was neither in a hurry nor panic. She walked to the table nearby, took out the razor and scraper for bone-cutting, looked at the man and said, "Of course I have to give you the money, but since you accidentally went to my shop, After the diagnosis, I can't wait to die without saving you. After I remove the abscesses all over your body first, I will have someone give you the money in both hands."

When the man looked at Su Chengying's things, he felt a chill running down his spine, "No, no need, the money is enough..."

Su Chengying took another step forward, "Since you came to my shop for consultation in the first place, you just wanted medicine to cure your illness. Now that I am treating you for free, you are so pushy and obstructive. It doesn't make sense."

The man panicked and said, "I, I can't trust you people anymore."

Su Chengying continued to walk in front of the man, "You know my identity, and countless people outside the door can testify for you. If I really hurt you, there will be a government agency to avenge you."

"No, no..." The man kept backing away.

It's not that he doesn't want to cure the abscess, but he knows very well that he is here to make trouble this time. Now that he has been beaten and smashed, how can Su Chengying really treat him?
Everyone outside the door looked at the man who kept backing away and refused to seek treatment. They already knew in their hearts that this man had been here for so long, and he clearly wanted to blackmail him. Otherwise, how could he come to the shop for treatment before, but now he doesn't want to?
It's obvious that the thief is cowardly and afraid of retaliation.
