Concubine's Survival Handbook

Chapter 54 Are You Rich?
Zheng Anyan put down the book in his hand, and said calmly, "What did Miss meet when she went out today?"

In the corner of the room, squatting quietly a black figure.

"Missy met Princess Pingting on a horse when she was going out today. Before his subordinates made a move, Young Master Xiao had already drawn his sword to help and cut off Princess Pingting's horse."

"Oh?"

Zheng Anyan was a little surprised, then smiled with some relief, and said in a low voice, "Sure enough, I didn't misjudge this kid."

With that said, he stepped out of the room and walked straight towards Jing Ning's yard.

……

For the next three days, Jing Ning did not see Mrs. Yang.

She asked Bihua to inquire, and only said that Zheng Anyan had been very indifferent to Yang Shi in the past few days, and she had no intention of regaining the family power for Yang Shi, nor did she take any action to bring Zheng Anning back.

From this point, Jing Ning can know that her father no longer trusts Yang Shi in his heart.

She threw down the brush, packed up the Buddhist scriptures on the table, asked the maid beside her to hand them over to the old lady, and then took Bi Hua out.

Three days later, the time she had agreed with that wandering doctor had arrived.

At this time, it was already raining lightly outside.

The water droplets intertwine into a rain curtain, flowing down from the branches and leaves of the eaves, and then falling to the ground, forming rows of water streams.

The rain soaked Jing Ning's shoes.

She opened a bamboo umbrella with the eaves drooping down, just covering half of her face.

Along the way, pedestrians are in a hurry.

When he reached an arch bridge, Jing Ning's face suddenly changed drastically, and he took Bihua's hand behind him and hurriedly retreated.

Before Bi Hua had time to ask, he saw the arch bridge in front of him collapse at a distance of several meters, sinking into the water bit by bit.

"Miss this is..."

Bihua opened her mouth wide, looking at the scene in front of her in disbelief——

The arch bridge connecting this bank has completely collapsed, but the half bridge leading to the other bank is still standing. This is something that Bihua has never encountered in the past few decades.

Of course, Jing Ning had never seen it either.

"A bridge collapses on the way out, an ominous omen, an ominous omen!"

A loud laugh suddenly came from the ear, shaking the raindrops on the branches.

Jing Ning turned his head to look, and saw a man in sloppy clothes, shaking a jug in his hand, walking over with a big laugh.

The man walked very slowly, shaking three times every time, as if he would fall down the next moment, but he was steady every time.

As if he was going crazy, he sang and danced and walked up to Jing Ning, then suddenly stopped and looked at Jing Ning's face, which was either crying or smiling.

"A lonely ghost with a lifespan of only 23 years, why did you come back to life again?"

Jing Ning's eyes suddenly shrank, and the hands under the sleeves clenched unconsciously.

Bi Hua behind her was already showing displeasure, and wanted to wave the person in front of her away.

But Jing Ning stopped her.

Stepping forward a few steps, he asked with a smile, "Senior, what do you mean by what you just said?"

The other party ignored her and walked past her.

"Don't say it, don't say it, the laws of heaven are orderly, destiny is predestined, everything is predestined, it can't be changed, it can't be changed!"

While he was talking, he was crying and laughing wildly, and his figure walked further and further away.

Jing Ning stood behind her and stared at her back, the hands under the sleeves were tightly clenched from beginning to end, never letting go.

"Miss, you, what's the matter with you?" Bihua looked at her own lady with some anxiety.

She had never seen this kind of expression on her young lady's face before, the light radiating from her eyes seemed to freeze people.

It's nothing, Jing Ning looked away and smiled kindly at her.

In the sleeves, the palms of the hands have already seen a little blood.

"I was just thinking, this bridge is broken, how on earth are we going to get across."

The two people turned their attention to the broken bridge again, and measured the distance. According to the degree of collapse of the bridge, the two of them would never be able to cross.

It seems that there is only a detour...

Obviously, taking a detour was not a good idea, because when Jing Ning and Bi Hua walked to the place they were in last time, there was no one there.

Jing Ning originally thought that the doctor hadn't come, so he sat down in a nearby teahouse and waited patiently.

However, they waited until the evening, but no one was seen.

Could it be that he was being tricked?

A ray of doubt emerged in her heart, and then she asked the person next to her.

"Xiaoer, what about the doctor who has been setting up a stall here, didn't he say he will come here in three days?"

Xiao Er, who was cleaning the table, replied, "Oh, miss, you are talking about Doctor Yang, right? Doctor Yang came early in the morning and went back early."

what, back?
Jing Ning frowned, and exchanged glances with Bi Hua.

It seems that today is in vain.

Just when the two of them were about to leave, there was a sudden commotion nearby, and the people who were sitting in the teahouse all heard the news and went to watch the commotion.

Jing Ning originally wanted to leave directly, but when he swept his gaze, he suddenly saw a familiar figure in the crowd.

Her footsteps stopped suddenly, and she turned to walk over there.

In an open space surrounded by crowds.A boy in black clothes grabbed a middle-aged man by the neck.

Beside those two people were a shivering old woman and a sobbing young girl.

"Let these two go, or I'll kill you!"

These were supposed to be very intimidating words, but when the young man said them in an immature voice, the coldness in his voice was completely diluted.

Jing Ning burst out laughing and shook his head.

This laugh immediately turned the boy's attention.

He also saw Jing Ning in the crowd and was taken aback for a moment.

At this moment of bewilderment, the middle-aged man violently broke free from the hand holding his neck, coughed a few times, and began to curse.

"Missing business? Do you know that this family owes me 50 taels, even if I sell all his family members, I can't make up the 50 taels. I only want his daughter now, which is not kind enough. You think Save him, okay, give me 50 taels, and I will release him immediately!"

Now that the matter has come to an end, no matter how stupid Jing Ning is, he can guess what's going on.

Probably the girl's family owed the man money and had no choice but to mortgage it to pay off the debt, but when the delivery was about to be made, someone saw it, and the above scene happened.

As for who is that someone?
Bihua pulled Jingning's sleeve violently, and said nervously, "Miss, isn't that Luohua? Why is Luohua here?"

Jing Ning hadn't spoken yet, but Bi Hua's face was already showing tension, "He seems to have offended that person, what should we do? Will something happen to Luo Hua?"

"With his martial arts, will something happen?"

She chuckled lightly, turned her head and said, "Do you have any silver on you, give it to me."

Bi Hua was stunned for a moment, then handed over all the silver on her body to Jing Ning.

Jing Ning counted, took out a few yuan, and walked out through the crowd.

The big guy was still cursing——

"What about money, do you have money? If you don't have money, get out of the way, and don't disturb Lao Tzu's business!"
