A small peasant girl's home is bare, but I have a spiritual space

Mr. Zhang was overwhelmed by the power of Manager Cheng, and his momentum was instantly reduced.

But I still want to argue: "She is talking nonsense, the truth of the matter is not like this."

"Haha, then do I need to invite our prefect here and have him investigate the truth of the matter?

Give you justice?"

Shopkeeper Cheng sneered.

"Then...then there's no need for that. There's no need to alarm the prefect for such a small matter," said Mr. Zhang, whose body was shaking and he could hardly speak clearly.

"Humph, you've ruined the Lin family. Some are injured, some are disabled, and one is still unconscious and his life or death is unknown.

What do you think we should do? "

"I... I'll pay you back, okay?" As Mr. Zhang said this, he took out a handful of silver bills from his sleeve, which added up to a rough estimate of more than one hundred taels.

Shopkeeper Cheng glanced at it indifferently and said coldly: "Not enough"

Mr. Zhang had no choice but to grit his teeth and take out a few banknotes from his pocket.

Manager Cheng didn't even look at it. He stood up, reached into the arms of Rich Man Zhang, took out a few bills, took them together with the silver bills in Rich Man Zhang's hand, counted them, and found a total of three hundred taels.

He placed the banknote in front of Lin Yiran and said, "Keep it. This is for the medical expenses, little Ran."

Quickly ask your third brother to go to town to get a doctor. This young man has suffered serious internal injuries.

The longer we delay, the more dangerous it will be." Shopkeeper Cheng sighed.

Looking at Zhang Kai with his eyes closed and pale face in his arms, Third Brother Lin felt a pang of pain in his heart. It was all his fault!

Lin Yiran looked at Zhang Kai's lifeless face, and an unspeakable bitterness welled up in her heart.

When he thought about how he risked his own life to block the blow for his third brother, he was filled with gratitude towards Zhang Kai.

Nothing can happen to Zhang Kai, I must save him.

"Third brother, please carry Brother Zhang Kai to your room first, and then carry our father over there so that I can take care of him. You go and get the doctor."

Lin Yiran said as he took out a 100-tael note from his hand and handed it to Third Brother Lin.

"Xiao Zhuzi, go unload the things from the carriage, and then accompany Brother Lin to the town to invite Doctor Jiang. Come back quickly."

"Yes, boss." After saying that, he turned to the carriage, opened the door and kept taking things out from inside.

Seeing this, Lin Yiran wanted to go over to help, but was stopped by Manager Cheng.

"Let Xiao Zhuzi move it. There aren't many things."

Looking at the small pillar that was still moving things out, how could you say that there were not many? Lin Yiran looked at the pile of things in front of him.

I am speechless. This is probably the kitchen of Xiangmanlou being moved here.

Pots and pans, beef, mutton, chicken, duck, fish, various fresh vegetables, and even a small basket of shrimps and crabs.

Huh, the move was finally completed. Looking at Xiao Zhuzi panting and sweating, Lin Yiran silently handed him a handkerchief.

Xiao Zhuzi was flattered and took it and thanked him repeatedly. This man was the one that even Manager Cheng had high hopes for!

Shopkeeper Cheng looked at the surprised faces of the Lin family and rubbed his hands awkwardly, saying, "Well, didn't I hear from Ran that Sister Lin can cook spicy dishes?

I just want to try a variety of meats and vegetables to see which ones are more suitable for spicy flavors. "

Lin Yiran's eyes lit up. It seemed that Shopkeeper Cheng was not only a foodie, but also someone who particularly loved to study dishes!

The fact that Xiangmanlou could develop into its current scale under his leadership is closely related to his hobby.

Lin Yiran was not in the mood to cook, but Shopkeepers Cheng and Liu had just helped their family out of trouble.

Besides, now that the things are here, it seems unreasonable not to do anything.

Lin Yiran forced herself to stay alert, looking at the ingredients in front of her, thinking silently about the recipe.

"Um...can I leave now?" Rich Man Zhang looked at Manager Cheng and the others cautiously.

"I almost forgot about you. You go first. If the subsequent medical expenses are not enough, I will come to you again." Shopkeeper Cheng waved his hand impatiently.

Rich man Zhang was so frightened that he staggered and almost fell. He had already given out three hundred taels, and he still wanted more.

Although I was so angry that I wanted to curse, I didn't dare to show it.

"Yes... yes, I understand." He said as he retreated towards the gate.

In a short while, the rich man Zhang and his men disappeared.

"You're a coward, a bully who only fears the strong and bullies the weak," Shopkeeper Liu spat in the direction of the door.

“Ran girl, your family has offended such a villain, and you probably won’t dare to take action again openly.

It's hard to say in secret, why don't you move to another place?" Shopkeeper Cheng suggested earnestly.

Lin Yiran was somewhat tempted. She turned around and saw that Lin's mother and father had serious expressions and frowned brows. They probably didn't want to move.

It's hard to leave one's hometown, so never mind, as long as the rich man Zhang doesn't cause trouble for them openly, that's enough.

If they dare to do something in secret, I will kill them one by one, and kill them both if they come across me. It's their bad luck if they meet me.

After thinking it through, I felt much better. “Thank you Uncle Cheng and Uncle Liu for your concern. As long as we can handle it on the surface, I’m not afraid of their tricks behind the scenes.

I have a secret weapon!"

Lin Yiran knew that the two of them must be curious about how a few old, weak, women and children in their family managed to defeat a few burly men.

This also indirectly told them that they had a magic weapon to save their lives.

After hearing what Lin Yiran said, Shopkeeper Cheng and Shopkeeper Liu immediately understood that neither of them was the type to get to the bottom of things.

So we changed the topic and started talking about business.

"Uncle Cheng and Uncle Liu, you guys chat first. I'll go help my mother. I'll call you when the food is ready."

"Okay, Ran, we two old men can't help you much. Thank you for your hard work." Shopkeeper Cheng and Shopkeeper Liu said in unison.

Mother Lin quickly replied: "It's not hard, it's just cooking a meal. If you two hadn't helped my family out, I don't know what would have happened.

I don’t know how to thank you.”

After saying that, he knelt straight down in front of the two people and said, "Please accept my greeting."

"Hurry up, sister-in-law, what are you doing?" Shopkeeper Cheng and Shopkeeper Liu stood up quickly and tried to help Lin's mother up.

"My family has received such great kindness from you two. I have no way to repay you. The only thing I can do is..."

"Mom, please get up first. Uncle Liu and Uncle Cheng are our family members. It will embarrass them if you kneel down and kowtow to them."

Shopkeeper Cheng and Shopkeeper Liu nodded quickly, "Yes, yes, sister-in-law, there is no need to do this."

Only then did Lin's mother give up.

Lin Yiran moved the meat and vegetables to the kitchen door one after another. Shopkeeper Cheng and Shopkeeper Liu wanted to help, but were rejected by Lin Yiran.

Seeing that the little girl had been carrying things for such a long time without a drop of sweat on her head, the two men secretly sighed at her good stamina and gave up the idea of ​​helping.

After moving all the things, Lin Yiran returned to his room.

After inserting the bolt, he slipped into the space, rushed directly to the spiritual spring pool, and filled a large earthenware jar with spiritual spring water.

Thinking about the dishes to be made for lunch, I took out another bag of sugar, a bag of pickled cabbage, and a can of Biluochun.

Just as he was about to go out, the little fool came running over, tilting his head and his big eyes twinkling: "Master, I miss you so much, can you stay with me for a while?"

"I have something else to do, so I'll come to accompany you in the evening and bring you some delicious food."

When it heard that there was something delicious, it stared at Lin Yiran with shining eyes, "Really? That's great, go get busy, see you in the evening, bye!"

"Is it that straightforward? I'm not as attractive as a good meal?"

Lin Yiran began to doubt her life.

There was a knock on the door and Lin Yiran quickly dodged out of the space. It was a close call.

"My dear, you must be scared today. I made you some brown sugar water. Drink some to calm your nerves."

Hearing her mother's caring words, Lin Yiran felt a little uncomfortable.

"It's okay, mom. I'm not scared. My clothes are just dirty. I'll change and go out."

Mother put the brown sugar water in the kitchen, remember to drink it later."

"Yeah, okay."

Hearing the footsteps of Lin's mother leaving, Lin Yiran quickly changed his clothes, took the things he took out from the space and went straight to the kitchen.

When Lin's mother saw what her daughter was holding, she was surprised for a moment, then came to her senses in an instant.

This was probably given by her master. Looking at Lin's mother's expression, she changed from surprise to calmness.

Lin Yiran knew that her mother had become immune to sudden things, so it was good this way so that she didn't have to explain every time.

"Mom, my master gave me another jar of spiritual spring water." Lin Yiran whispered in her mother's ear.

Mother Lin gave me an expression that I knew.

"Then give some to your brother Zhang Kai and the two shopkeepers."

"Mom, are you so generous? I remember you were reluctant to give drinks to Dad and the others last time!" Lin Yiran teased.

"You little girl, they all drank it in the end,

Zhang Kai and Manager Liu are our family’s saviors.

Mother is not that lazy and ignorant woman." Mother Lin was afraid that her daughter would misunderstand her character, so she tried to defend herself.

"Mom is the most sensible person in the world. You won't find anyone in this area who is as virtuous, generous, and good to her daughter as mom." Lin Yiran shook her mother's arm and praised her.

"Stop talking nonsense, and send the spiritual spring water to your father and Zhang Kai." Mother Lin was very pleased to hear her daughter's praise, her face was full of smiles, and she couldn't suppress the raised corners of her mouth.

"Yes, sir." Lin Yiran poured out two bowls of spiritual spring water and ran away. Lin's mother watched her daughter leave.

He sighed heavily, his dear girl has grown up and is becoming more and more beautiful.

I'm afraid my family is not capable of protecting her.

When Father Lin saw his daughter coming in with two full bowls of water, he tried to struggle out of bed to help.

"Dad, don't move. You are badly injured. I can carry them." Lin Yiran put the two bowls on a small stool next to the bed.

He picked up one of the bowls of spiritual spring water and handed it to Lin's father, "Dad, drink some water first. I added sugar."

"Good boy, you are thoughtful. Let me drink it." Father Lin took the bowl and drank it in a few gulps.

Father Lin felt that the water today was clear, sweet and especially delicious.

After drinking it, I don’t know if it was my illusion, but I felt a warm current nourishing my meridians.

Even the pain in my body was relieved a lot.

Lin Yiran looked at the unconscious Zhang Kai and was in a dilemma. "Dad, I want to give Brother Zhang Kai some water, but how can he drink it?" Lin Yiran said in embarrassment, pointing at Zhang Kai who was still in a coma.

“This is easy. When you were a kid and had a high fever and fell asleep, it was your father who fed you water.

Ran'er, turn his body sideways, and then find a small spoon, and dad will help you feed him." Father Lin volunteered.

Lin Yiran nodded and did as she was told. After some effort, the father and daughter finally completed this difficult task.

"Dad, I have to go to the kitchen to help cook. Please keep an eye on Brother Zhang Kai for me. Call me if anything happens." Lin Yiran said worriedly.

"Okay, Dad will take good care of him, Ran'er, you go and do your work."

As soon as I walked out of the yard, I ran into Brother Lin San and Xiao Zhuzi, followed by a little old man with a white beard carrying a medicine box.

"Third brother, you guys are quite fast. I just gave Dad and Brother Zhang Kai some water.

You guys go in." Lin Yiran said as he made way for them.

They didn't bother to talk and walked straight into the house.

Doctor Jiang was taking Zhang Kai's pulse at this time. Everyone saw that his expression was sometimes relaxed, sometimes conflicted, and sometimes solemn.

My heart was lifted up and then dropped down, and then lifted up again. Fortunately, I don't have a heart disease, otherwise I would have had problems with such drastic mood swings.
