Chapter 212 Nosy 3
A buddy passed Feng Jiushang and stopped Ye Chen with his arms outstretched, his contemptuous eyes were undisguised.

Immediately, Ye Chen's body trembled, his lack of nutrition turned even paler, he lowered his head and took half a step back, before turning around and leaving.

"Brother Ye Chen, I invite you to dinner, can you hurry up?" Feng Jiushang stood with arms folded, looking lazily at Ye Chen.

When the man heard this, he immediately apologized with a smile on his face, "Young master Ye, you are so blind, please come in!"

In just one sentence, he traveled from hell to heaven. Ye Chen, who was used to seeing the cold world, walked into the restaurant with a wry smile on his lips.

"Brother Ye Chen, you can order whatever you like!" Feng Jiushang chose a remote place by the window to sit down, and pushed the menu to Ye Chen's hand.

"Young master, two bowls of white rice will be enough. I'll eat one bowl and take another bowl home for my father to eat..." Ye Chen didn't even dare to look at the menu, let alone order food.

Feng Jiushang lazily rolled his eyes, and said with a wry smile: "Brother Ye Chen, I paid for you to eat, and I won't sell you to pay for the meal. What are you afraid of?"

Ye Chen didn't dare to look into Feng Jiushang's eyes at all, and kept shaking his lowered head.

Feng Jiushang rubbed the center of his brows, and sighed secretly, a man from every family can be so shy, his helpless and sad eyes are very similar to that of the second brother when he was a child...

There was no way, Feng Jiushang brought over the menu and ordered more than a dozen meat dishes and six-cage meat buns in one go. Ye Chen looked at it stupidly and rubbed his sleeves uneasily.

After a while, the dishes and meat buns came up, and a table was full.

"Brother Ye Chen, let's eat. It's shameful to waste it. If you can't finish it, pack it back!" Feng Jiushang said with a smile, and asked for a pot of tea. While drinking tea, he admired Ye Chen's voracious eating.

In less than a quarter of an hour, there was only one cage of meat buns left on the table, and Ye Chen ate up the rest.

"My lord, I'm not afraid of your jokes, I haven't eaten enough for more than a month!" Ye Chen wiped his mouth, a shy blush appeared on his pale face.

Feng Jiushang nodded with a smile covering his mouth, poured him a cup of tea, and the two chatted in a low voice.

Ye Chen's eldest Feng Jiushang was three years old, and his family was considered well-to-do. Two years ago, he joined an out-of-town pharmacist named Xuan Song and began to learn how to make medicine.

Ordinary people will inevitably suffer from minor ailments such as headaches and brain fever, so they come to Xuansong Medicine Hall to grab some medicines, take them back and decoct them a few times, and after drinking them, the ailments go away.

People came and went, and after a long time, the reputation of Xuansong Medicine Hall rose, and this disaster followed.

One night, several masked men in black broke in and severely injured Xuan Song. Ye Chen's father tried to stop him, but he was also seriously injured.

In the early morning of the next day, when Ye Chen came back from collecting herbs, his master was dying and his father was unconscious...

Ye Chen had no choice but to sell some of his family property and bury his master Xuansong. However, Father Ye took a lot of medicine, but he didn't get better and was still unconscious. In this way, life was getting worse day by day...

Father Ye's condition is getting worse day by day, he doesn't even know his son Ye Chen anymore, and he doesn't have much income for helping others to see a doctor and dispense medicines. Coupled with the uninterrupted beating, smashing and looting by masked men in black, he cannot make ends meet, and his life goes from bad to worse.

Therefore, Ye Chen planned to sell himself as a slave and take his sick father by his side to take care of him.

Kneeling for a long time near the slave trading market, surrounded by spectators, there were very few real buyers. He shook his head when he heard that he wanted to take his sick father with him.
