Buddhist Miracle Doctor: The Dark Prince, Can't Get Rid of Him

Mu Yingbao didn't know what was going on in the government office or the Fu family. She strolled leisurely around Tangci Town.

This town was not on the originally planned route. It was only because I met Tang Yunzhu by chance that I changed my plan and came here.

What Mu Yingbao didn't expect was that although this place was a town, it was about the same size as some cities and counties.

The town was bustling with people, and there were shops lining both sides of the street. It looked very prosperous and busy, with vendors sweeping and hawking candied haws.

"You two can eat whatever you want." Mu Yingbao turned around and said to the two people behind him.

"I understand, ma'am. I won't save you any money." Nanzhu looked around happily, while the other one was worried because he was afraid that the people from the government office would cause trouble for his benefactor.

It has been said since ancient times that the people should not fight against the officials. No matter how wealthy and powerful the benefactors are, it is not a good thing to have a feud with the government.

When she was rescued the day before, Tang Yunzhu never thought about the identities of her benefactors.

It was only after returning to Fu Mansion today and seeing the aura of his benefactor with his own eyes that he began to guess who he could be.

No matter how she guessed, she felt that he didn't look like someone with an official position.

Although the lady's husband looks like a high-ranking official, what kind of official position does he hold in Yan Guo that would allow him to take his lady out for a stroll? And he is so doting and considerate to her.

"Mrs. Tang, don't think too much. My master and the mistress will take care of everything. Come, let's have one each." Nanzhu whispered to comfort Yunzhu while searching for her and picking out two candied haws.

Since Wen Xiaowu didn't come along, Lin Chuan was responsible for paying the money.

He was about to touch his wallet, but he immediately changed his mind when he saw the picture next to him. He raised his leg and kicked him. "Hey, it's time to show off."

Tuzi chuckled and immediately took out a copper coin and paid it forward.

Nanzhu also smiled as she watched. After all, it was her master who initiated the matter between her and Tuzi. It was open and aboveboard and there was nothing shameful about it.

"Tuzi, why are you so stupid? Why are you spending your own money to come out with us? You should save your money for the betrothal gift." Mu Yingbao joked.

"Madam, Guard Lin has married two women. Has he saved enough for the betrothal gifts?" Nanzhu looked at Tuzi with a silly smile and couldn't help but speak.

"My husband, look, they say that girls should not be kept when they grow up. If you keep them, they will become enemies. I just made a joke, but this girl was not happy about it." Mu Yingbao pulled her husband's sleeve to complain.

Xue Wenyu glared at Tuzi, then glared at Nanzhu. "Xia, if Tuzi doesn't give you a betrothal gift of 10,000 taels, I won't let this girl marry him."

"Master, this is unacceptable. Do you want me to be a bachelor for the rest of my life? Or are you forcing me to rob houses in the dark of night?" Tuzi knew that his master was not really angry, so he shouted quickly.

The master and servant were joking around, and Tang Yunzhu was very envious. What was wrong with being a servant to such a master? She was a young lady in the Fu family, but what kind of life was she living? However, even her parents treated her like that, so why couldn't her husband's family treat her like that! "Miss Nanzhu, tell me, after my problem is solved, can I come into your house?

Working in the master's house, I am willing to be the lowest maid. "Thinking of this, Tang Yunzhu asked in a low voice.

As soon as she said it, she regretted it. Who would want someone like me? How could they be short of maids and servants? "Ah? Do you really think so? Madam Tang, I tell you, don't worry about the future.

Master, when you help someone, it is not enough to just solve the problem at hand. Your wife will make arrangements for you in the future. "Nanzhu also responded in a low voice.

"Miss Nanzhu, you can just call me Yunzhu from now on." During the more than one day that Tang Yunzhu spent with Nanzhu, she felt the warmth she had once experienced in her mother's home, and she felt even closer to her.

Nanzhu heard her say this and nodded with a smile.

Mu Yingbao heard the two people behind him mumbling something, but he didn't listen carefully. His eyes were quickly attracted by the things on the roadside stall. "Uncle, is this donkey skin?"

The stall owner was an old man in his seventies. He was annoyed that other stalls were doing good business while no one came to his stall. When he saw Mu Yingbao and others coming forward to ask, he was surprised why this lady was interested in donkey skin, but he still responded enthusiastically; "Yes, ma'am, this is donkey skin. Here we have the best leather, and deerskin is the best for making boots, and we also have the best fox skin." However, Mu Yingbao's eyes were still on the donkey skin placed in the corner of the stall.

"But is it useful?" Xue Wenyu looked at his wife and asked softly.

"Buy it if it's useful. Is this one enough?" Xue Wenyu asked again. Looking at his wife's reaction to the donkey skin, he thought it should be of great use.

Howl? Why would a lady who is so well dressed buy donkey skin? The old stall owner was also very puzzled.

"Uncle, how much is this donkey skin?" Mu Yingbao asked again.

Seeing that the lady in front of him really wanted to buy, the old stall owner immediately told her that it was thirty cents per piece.

Hearing the price, which was really cheap, Mu Yingbao couldn't help but ask again, "Uncle, don't you have anyone who buys donkey skins?"

"Madam, you don't know that originally, the medicine shop collected donkey skins at 35 coins per piece. It seemed to be used to make donkey-hide gelatin, which is a tonic that wealthy families like you can afford. But, since the old shopkeeper passed away, his son-in-law took over the medicine shop and never collected donkey skins again.

They now use cheaper leather such as horsehide, pighide and so on to make donkey hide gelatin.

Also, after the new emperor ascended the throne, he issued an edict that all provinces and cities no longer needed to pay tribute to expensive tonics, so the donkey-hide gelatin prepared in the pharmacies did not sell as well as it did during the reign of the previous emperor.

The donkey skins I sell here are all from my relatives, who asked me to help sell them. It's good to get some money in return.

If Madam really wants it, we can make it cheaper, even 25 wen per piece will do." The old man deliberately lowered his voice when talking about the impact of the new emperor's accession to the throne and the previous emperor's reign on the sales of donkey-hide gelatin.

Lin Chuan, who was leaning over, listened and looked at the old man with a rich expression, thinking, you are afraid of getting in trouble by talking nonsense, but you don't know that the person in front of you is the closest person to the current emperor!

After hearing this, Mu Yingbao turned her head to look at her husband and made a finger gesture to him to come closer. Xue Wenyu knew that his wife had something to say in private, so he leaned over.

"Did you hear that? After our brother Hui ascended the throne, it actually had an impact on the sales and price of donkey-hide gelatin." Mu Yingbao said in a low voice.

After hearing this, Xue Wenyu pondered for a while and whispered in his wife's ear, "This can't be considered a bad thing. When the previous emperor was in power, the tributes from various prefectures and cities were ridiculously expensive when they were recorded in the accounts of the Ministry of Internal Affairs in the palace.

The people who make donkey-hide gelatin don't make much money, it's all the corrupt officials who add to the price and pocket the money for themselves.

The old man at the stall watched the two of them whispering to each other, and he became even more worried. It was just a donkey skin, was it necessary to do this?

At the corner not far from the street, someone was looking over here cautiously...
