The wealthy tycoon wants to be the white moonlight of the little village girl
Chapter 256: Encountering the Flower Girl Again
Jiang Yaonian came to the upper room, and Madam Jiang forced a smile and said, "I asked you to come over and talk with me, so that it won't be too quiet during the festival..."
Jiang Yaonian said sadly: "It would be nice if Qinghe was here too..."
Madam Jiang hesitated for a moment and said softly, "I heard that someone saw her in Zuixianlou..."
Jiang Yaonian said, "That wasn't her, it was just a girl who looked a bit like her. I also saw her at the entrance of the restaurant tonight!"
Madam Jiang sighed, "Alas, I don't know where this child is now... The Shadow Guards and the government still have no news at all?"
"not yet."
"Well, the fact that there is no bad news is good news... It means that she should at least still be alive..."
Jiang Yaonian rubbed his face tiredly and whispered, "All the restaurants and hotels in the capital have been searched several times, but there is no news at all... We have also sent people to check carefully at all the city gates, and no one has seen her leave the city."
Madam Jiang asked in confusion: "This child is usually so honest and has never had any grudges with anyone, how could he suddenly disappear for no reason..."
Jiang Yaonian remained silent, having a guess in his mind but not daring to say it out loud!
He was worried that Qinghe would not forgive him, so he secretly hid with the help of others while he was away from Beijing!
Otherwise it would be impossible to explain why a living person could disappear out of thin air... and with his abilities, he couldn't find any clues at all.
Madam Jiang was silent for a while and then comforted him, "Nian'er, don't be too angry. Qinghe is a lucky person. She might come back on her own someday..."
Jiang Yaonian nodded, "Yeah."
The maids brought two bowls of dumplings on a tray and placed them on the table.
Madam Jiang said kindly, "Eat some glutinous rice dumplings. I hope that this time next year, you and Qinghe will be able to be together with me to celebrate the festival..."
Jiang Yaonian lowered his head and said nothing, feeling a sour nose...
Although he also hoped that this would be the case, so many days had passed, and he was afraid that hope was a little slim. Whether Qinghe ran away from home on her own initiative or was kidnapped, the situation was not optimistic...
He stood up and said, "I'm going to go back first. You should also go to bed early."
Madam Jiang advised, "Well, go back and rest early. Don't stay up all night. You never know when there might be news! Don't ruin your health."
"Ah."
Jiang Yaonian walked out.
Mrs. Jiang looked at her grandson's tall and strong back and couldn't help but feel distressed...
This poor child, who had been single for so many years, finally married a wife of his dreams. But within less than a year, his wife suddenly disappeared. How pitiful!
After Jiang Yaonian left the upper house, he walked along the path to Chuping Villa.
Although today is the Lantern Festival, a time for the whole family to enjoy a happy time, the villa is quiet without the hostess, and the maids and servants have already gone back to sleep.
Jiang Yaonian walked into the living room and sat down. After looking around silently, he found that although all the furniture and furnishings were still the same as before, there was an indescribable feeling of loneliness.
When Qing He was here, she always liked to sit here and embroider. When she was tired, she would either walk around in the yard or play with the parrot "Taibai". Then, when he came back, they would go back to their room to rest together...
Thinking of this, Jiang Yaonian could not help but stand up and walked to the corridor. Looking up, he was surprised to find that "Taibai" was completely different from his usual state of being a crowd pleaser, and was lying listlessly in the cage.
He was shocked and quickly took off the cage and teased it gently, but it still looked weak.
It was already midnight, so Jiang Yaonian had no choice but to carry the cage back to the study.
After a while, the guards brought water.
Jiang Yaonian tried to feed it, but the little guy didn't move much.
At dawn the next day, Jiang Yaonian carried the cage and got on the carriage.
After driving for a meal's time, we finally stopped at the entrance of a semi-old narrow alley. It was said that there lived a doctor who specialized in treating pets.
Jiang Yaonian got off the carriage and walked into the yard carrying the cage.
There was already a guest in the room who came to treat his pet. It was a droopy-headed Hubala with a layer of skin peeled off its head. Its bloody appearance reminded Jiang Yaonian of the female corpse he saw that day.
He turned his head slightly and heard the bird's owner begging desperately: "Doctor, please save it! As long as it is still alive, I will never abandon it..."
The doctor said helplessly, "Miss, it's not that I don't want to save it, it's just that its injuries are too severe... and it's cold and sick. Even if you force it to drink medicine, it may not recover. You're not rich, so you might as well save some money and buy another one."
The girl cried and said, "No! I just want it. Please be kind and I will show it to you no matter how much it costs..."
The doctor shook his head. "Alas, in this case, there is only hope unless we feed it with Baoshengdan and Chinese yam together..."
"Well, then please treat it..."
"Ten taels of silver per box."
"what?"
The girl hesitated, and with tears on her face, she begged, "Doctor, can you make it cheaper?"
The doctor sighed and said, "This medicine is expensive because it works and works quickly. Ordinary people may not be willing to spend ten taels of silver when they are sick. Even if you go to a pharmacy, it may not be available in stock."
After hearing this, the girl burst into tears and remained silent...
The guard stepped forward and said, "Doctor, how much money will it cost to treat this bird? Our young master will pay for it. Please examine it."
The doctor looked up and saw a young man from a wealthy family standing at the door. He was holding a birdcage with a sickly white parrot in it, and a sturdy guard was beside him.
The doctor said quickly, "Okay, okay."
He stood up and opened the cabinet behind him, took out a small square box, handed it to the girl and said, "Go back to the medicine store and buy some wild yam, then feed it to the bird together with this Baosheng Pill. Feed it for three days in a row. If it is lucky, it will be fine."
The girl agreed repeatedly, thanked the doctor and took the medicine, then walked to the door and looked at Jiang Yaonian with tears in her eyes and said, "Thank you very much, sir, but I don't know your name or where you live. I will return it to you when I have enough money."
When Jiang Yaonian saw her clearly, he was startled to find that she was the flower girl he met at the entrance of Zuixianlou last night...
He frowned and said, "No need."
After that, he walked to the doctor and put the cage on the table, "Take a look at this parrot, what's wrong with it?"
"Hey, okay, okay!"
The doctor took Taibai out of the cage, opened his eyelids and looked at him, lifted his wings and looked at his skin, and finally touched his belly and said, "He must have eaten the Zhuluo grass by mistake."
