Jade Without Fragrance

   Chapter 55 Rejection

  I haven't seen him for two months. Wen Ping doesn't look like a big housekeeper anymore. His hair is messy and his cheeks are sunken. It's like a different person.

   Lin Hao could recognize it because Wen Ping and Wen Rusheng were too profound for her.

   "What is Wen Guanshi doing?" Lin Hao's tone was indifferent, "I remember we had settled for a long time."

  Wen Ping banged his head at Lin Hao's feet: "Second girl, please show kindness. Yun'er's leg was broken by someone in the casino, and now she's dying."

   "Can't do it?" Lin Hao raised his eyebrows slightly, but there was no fluctuation in his heart.

   She knew that without her action, the father and son would not end well, but she didn't expect it to happen so quickly.

  Lin Hao's indifference made Wen Ping's emotions even more intense: "Second girl, you only need to give me 10 taels of silver and let me hire a doctor for Yun'er. Yun'er has a high fever, so I can't delay it any longer—"

  Lin Hao took two steps away and said lightly: "Wen Guanshi, I'll say it again, we've settled between us, you don't owe me, and I don't owe you either."

  Wen Ping didn't listen to these words at all, and kept begging: "Second girl, ten taels of silver is just a meal for you, but it can save my son's life, I beg you..."

   In the distance, someone is already looking this way.

  Lin Hao frowned: "Steward Wen, there are many pedestrians on the street where ten taels of silver is just a meal for them. Why don't you go begging them, but come begging me?"

  Wen Ping stopped, looked at the girl with a calm face, and saw a hint of mockery in her eyes.

   Wen Ping was stunned.

   When he wanted to come, as long as he put down his face and begged, the mere 10 taels of silver and the second girl would definitely agree, after all, hundreds of thousands of dollars were given so happily.

   But now, Lin Hao's eyes made him realize that he couldn't ask for these 12 taels of silver.

   "Second girl, the villain helped you after all."

   "You've collected money." Lin laughed, "Wen has been the steward of the Shi Lang's mansion for so many years, can't you tell the difference between a transaction and a friendship?"

  Wen Ping was speechless for a moment.

  Lin Hao stopped looking at him and walked forward.

   "Second girl!" Wen Ping shouted.

  Lin Hao stopped and looked down at him.

  Wen Ping got up from the ground, lost the gesture of begging just now, and his half-squinted eyes showed a fierce light: "Second girl, are you not afraid that I will tell you what I was bribed by you?"

  Lin Hao raised his eyebrows: "Mr. Wen is threatening me?"

   Wen Ping gestured: "One hundred taels, as long as the second girl gives me another hundred taels of silver, I'll keep that thing in my stomach forever."

   "Speak out."

   "What?" Wen Ping thought he had heard it wrong.

Lin Hao smiled calmly: "You can tell it. But who can someone like Steward Wen who looks like a beggar tell it? Who will believe what you say? You have corrupted the general without any evidence. With the reputation of the girl in the government, you are not afraid of being arrested by the officials?"

   Wen Ping's ferocious expression froze on his face.

   He couldn't understand how a little girl could be so calm and fearless.

"It's a pity." Lin Hao sighed lightly, "If Steward Wen said he was willing to do things for me just now, in exchange for his son's consultation fee, although I wouldn't use you, I wouldn't give out these 12 taels of silver just because of my soft heart. "

  Some people always let evil thoughts come to the fore at the first time, Wen Ping is undoubtedly such a person.

   Such people do not deserve mercy.

  Wen Ping's eyes lit up, his face full of eagerness: "Second girl, the villain is willing to do things for you, the villain can be a cow and a horse for you!"

   "No need." Lin Hao shook his head and strode over.

   If she wants, she can indeed get someone who is easy to use, someone who can do anything to fulfill her orders.

   But she never needed such a person.

  She doesn't want to be that kind of person either.

In front of   , several new scholars who had just attended the Qionglin Banquet stopped and talked about Lin Hao.

   "That girl is so hard-hearted, the beggar knelt down and begged for so long, she didn't give up."

   "Yes, is there any more? It should always be given to a steamed bun."

   As Lin Hao approached, someone whispered, "Isn't this the little lady from that day?"

   "Which day?"

   "It was the little lady who was almost hit by a flower pot when we went to drink tea that day."

   "It's really her."

   "At the time, I thought this girl was kind..."

   Seeing the girl approaching, several people shut up and looked at the beautiful face under the light. Some people were nervous, some people were looking forward to it, and some people were disappointed.

   When Lin Hao walked over without looking sideways, someone sighed, "I didn't expect that the little lady had two attitudes towards girls and beggars."

   "Isn't it the day when we were here, that little lady was kind to girls, right?"

  Wen Feng looked at the stunned fellow student, and said unbearably: "That man may not be a beggar, maybe there is a reason, let's not speculate."

   "It's not early, let's go." A young man wearing a golden flower said.

   The young man is handsome and well-dressed, and he is Yang Zhe, the champion of the world.

  The crowd apparently took him as the head, and after hearing this, they dispersed.

  Wen Feng was in a hurry, catching up with Wen Ping.

   "Wen manage things?"

  Wen Ping looked at Wen Feng, his expression changed from dazed to surprised: "Are you... Young Master Feng?"

   "How could Steward Wen become like this?" Wen Feng asked in surprise.

   If it wasn't for his cousin, he wouldn't have recognized that this was the chief steward of the Wen residence.

  Wen Ping's tears flowed down immediately: "After leaving Wen's house, our father and son are helpless, and everyone can be bullied. Yun'er's leg was broken by a wicked person a few days ago, and now the wound is festering and hot, and it's about to die..."

"so serious?"

  Wen Ping cried even more: "Just now, the villain found the second girl, just hope that the second girl will show her kindness and reward a few taels of silver, so that she can ask Yun'er for medicine. I didn't expect—"

  Wen Feng did not follow Wen Ping's words to comment on Lin Hao, but said, "Steward Wen, take me to see Wen Yun."

  Wen Pingping showed joy, and threw himself on his knees and kowtowed: "Thank you, Mr. Feng, and Mr. Feng."

  Wen Feng turned sideways to avoid: "Wen management doesn't have to be like this, it's important to see Wen Yun."

  Wen Ping wiped away his tears, led Wen Feng around and walked into a narrow alley.

  Sewage flows across the alley and the stench is foul. Only the moonlight barely illuminates the gray walls and the moss on the walls.

   "This is it." Wen Ping pushed open a broken door and asked Wen Feng to enter.

   "Yun'er, Dad is back."

   The room was pitch black and there was no movement.

  Wen Ping took a few quick steps into the house and lit the oil lamp.

   The lights were like beans, the house looked dark and gloomy, and an indescribable stench penetrated people's noses.

  Wen Feng saw Wen Yun lying on the bed.

  Compared to Wen Yun, who is almost inhuman, Wen is actually quite decent.

   "Yun'er, how are you?"

  Wen Ping shouted two more times, but there was no response, and walked over quickly.

   "Yun'er, Yun'er, wake up." Wen Ping pushed Wen Yun's arm a few times, his trembling hands probed for his breath.

   stretched out his hand to Wen Yun's nose and shrank back suddenly, Wen Ping's heart-wrenching cry rang out in the house: "Yun'er!"
