C28 To be Misled by a Desire to Help
Lee Wanning wiped away her tears. Just as she was about to say something, she swallowed her words back and said, "That was given to me by an immortal. He said it could cure the illness. I was just trying it out."
Doctor Gong obviously didn't believe her, but Lee Wanning didn't care about that much. After all, it was a medicine. After Zhou Qu brought the medicine back, Lee Wanning went to boil the medicine.
In Lee Wanning's space, it was just like a small town. She was a farmer, so she could only use things she grew in exchange for gold coins and other things she wanted to trade for. In those shops, there were also players like her selling all kinds of things.
After taking the medicine, Lee Changshou's face started to look better. He held Lee Wanning's hand tightly and said, "Aa Ning, you should let me go back. Your mother is at home with Wanyao …"
"Don't worry, I left some money for them. It's not like they don't have hands or feet, they won't starve to death." Lee Wanning's words were unquestionable.
Just when she didn't know what to say, Lee Wanning continued, "Okay, even if you want to go back, you have to wait until you're better. Otherwise, don't even think about it!"
"I'm just thinking, it doesn't seem like a proper thing for me to live here as an old father-in-law …"
Lee Wanning knew that he was thinking about this, so she said, "Don't worry, I've already discussed it with Zhou Qu. He said that my father is his father, and there's no one else in our family."
Lee Wanning's tone was light, but Lee Changshou was still scared. Lee Wanning repeated it to him a few times and made him drink the medicine before she finally made him lie down.
When Lee Wanning was making the house, she saw Zhou Heng and Zhou Huai looking in her direction. Lee Wanning walked over and asked, "What's the matter?"
The two of them shook their heads at the same time. Just as they turned around and were about to leave, Lee Wanning called out to Zhou Heng.
Zhou Heng turned around and Lee Wanning said, "Don't worry, I won't hold you up for your salary."
Zhou Heng didn't expect Lee Wanning to be talking about this. He shook his head and said, "It's alright sister-in-law. We will listen to our brother. Sister-in-law's father is our father."
Hearing Zhou Heng's words, Lee Wanning finally felt like she did not give her all to the ingrate. She smiled in satisfaction and said, "Then I'll go to town."
"Why are we going to the town?"
"Secret!" I will be back before dinner. If possible, take good care of my father! "
Lee Wanning had thought of this the last time she saw Huan Niang's copy shop. However, she had been busy the last two days. It was only when she realised that she didn't have much silver left that she remembered this matter.
Lee Wanning had already found a small path with Zhou Qu the last time, but she was still panting heavily when she reached the top of the town.
Huan Niang was fanning herself as she stood in front of the Duan Clan's copy shop. When she saw Lee Wanning walking over, her expression immediately changed. Just as she was about to turn around and leave, Lee Wanning's voice came from behind, "Madam Duan, what do you mean by this? Are you afraid of me? "
Hearing Lee Wanning's words, Huan Niang's footsteps suddenly stopped. She turned her head to look at Lee Wanning and said, "Are you joking? Would I be afraid of you? "
"That's good, I want to see Big Brother Duan." Lee Wanning sat straight on the table and said.
Huan Niang's expression changed as she continued, "What's with your attitude? Do you really think yourself to be a spring onion? "
Lee Wanning smiled as she raised her head and said, "I'm not a scallion because I'm human! "Madam Duan, actually, you don't need to have any objections against me. I've come here today because I want to point out a path for you and Big Brother Duan."
"Which way?" We are having a good life! "There's no need for you to pretend to be nice!"
Seeing her expression, Lee Wanning simply shouted, "Big Brother Duan? Big Brother Duan! If you don't mind, come out and see me, okay? "
Lee Wanning kept talking, but her voice was still loud. Huan Niang was annoyed and shouted, "Old man, are you still not coming out!?"
As if it was an order, Big Brother Duan walked out from inside, but with his head lowered, his stooped back made it hard for others to see his face. Lee Wanning paused for a moment, then said, "Big Brother Duan, it's okay, it's like this, you know, our Zhou Family can't be considered to be very rich, but as for me, I've always wanted to stand in this small town, but my hands are tight, and I don't have any connections …"
"You want to borrow money?" No way! We don't even have money ourselves! "
Without waiting for Lee Wanning to say anything, Huan Niang directly said.
Lee Wanning glanced at her and said, "No, no, no. We don't want to borrow money. We need Big Brother Duan to help us. How about we make money together?"
Hearing Lee Wanning's words, Big Brother Duan immediately raised his head. Lee Wanning had already mentally prepared herself. In modern times, she had seen a lot of weird things, so when she saw Big Brother Duan's skinned face, her expression didn't even change.
Huan Niang looked at Lee Wanning's expression and the mocking expression on her face lessened. She said, "Tell me about it."
"It's like this. I feel that the decorations here are not bad, and Big Brother Duan's cooking skills are pretty good. As for me, I don't know anything else, I just know a few side dishes. I want to give this authorization to Big Brother Duan."
"Authorization?"
"I'm the one who sell this dish to you. How much you sell it for, get rid of the cost of the dish, and then split it between us two families. Of course, Big Brother Duan has to spend a lot of effort, so how about we take a small share?"
"But I only know how to copy." Big Brother Duan finally said.
Lee Wanning smiled and said, "It's alright, I believe in Big Brother Duan's ability. I will show it to you once, and you will know soon enough."
As Lee Wanning spoke, she rolled up her sleeves and headed into the kitchen.
She looked at the ingredients around her and thought for a moment. Soon, she picked up two dishes, one egg soup, and one ant from the tree.
Huan Niang was a person who did not touch the water from the spring sun. When she stood to the side and watched Lee Wanning's swift movements, she was slightly dumbfounded.
Lee Wanning handed the dish to her and said, "Have a taste?"
Huan Niang first took a bite of the ant and climbed the tree. When she tasted the flavor, her eyes lit up, and she immediately took another bite.
Lee Wanning's face was filled with pride, but she quickly said, "But even if your food is delicious, you won't be able to sell it in our shop!"
Lee Wanning looked at her surroundings. What she said did make sense.
Although the Duan Clan's store was located in a small town, its location was slightly remote. Coupled with the turmoil caused by Huan Niang, the number of people willing to come here was extremely few.
Lee Wanning thought for a moment before saying, "Leave this matter to me, but can you promise me one thing, Madam Duan?"
"What is it?"
"Can you wear normal clothes?"
"…"
Lee Wanning didn't wait for her gaze as she turned around and walked away. She looked at her surroundings and then headed to the corner of the street.
It was pretty good there. There weren't many people there, but there were quite a few coming and going.
Lee Wanning entered the restaurant next door.
"Miss, do you want to eat or live in a restaurant?" The waiter immediately came up to greet them.
Lee Wanning smiled at him and said, "Can I get something from you?"
In this day and age, it was already considered not bad for girls to be able to understand these two words. Those who knew how to hold a brush could not find even two when holding a lantern, but this girl actually drew quite well after taking a brush.
Lee Wanning wasn't sure if this would work or not, but since things had already come to this point, she could only give it her all.
She drew a bowl of wontons and two more dishes, with a few coppers at the bottom.
Needless to say, it looked a bit more decent.
Finally, he drew an arrow.
Lee Wanning returned the brush to the shop owner, said a few words of thanks and then walked out with the piece of paper.
Lee Wanning stood beside the piece of paper that had been pasted onto the wall.
In this era, it was only when the government caught people that such items would be posted. As soon as Lee Wanning posted it, several people came over.
"Miss, what does that mean?"
Hearing that, Lee Wanning immediately said, "Don't you understand? This was a plagiarism, the Duan Clan's plagiarism. Right now, they were doing some activities inside the store, a bowl of plagiarism only needed to add three copper coins and they could add one more to these two dishes. It's too delicious! "
Lee Wanning had the most exaggerated expression in her life. When those people heard about the Duan Clan, their expressions all changed, then they turned around and left.
Lee Wanning looked over and saw an interested person. She immediately stepped forward and said, "Brother, do you want to try it?"
That person looked at him and said, "Then I'll try to test the poison on everyone for free!"
Lee Wanning immediately burst into laughter. As long as there was a first, there would be a second, third, and one hundred!
As she thought about it, Lee Wanning seemed to have already seen the white and beautiful silver coming in her direction, leading the little brother inside.
Fortunately, after hearing her words, Huan Niang changed her clothes. The person smiled at her and said, "What's the matter, Huan Niang? Are you going to change your profession and become a good woman? Wash your hands to make broth? "
Huan Niang's expression immediately changed. She then looked at Lee Wanning before turning around and leaving.
Lee Wanning turned around to look at the man, but when she saw his lustful eyes, her eyes immediately darkened. "Please leave."
"What, you don't do business anymore?"
"We're giving this to people to eat."
Hearing Lee Wanning's words, that person's face immediately changed. "Who are you scolding?!"
"I'll scold whoever gets seated!"
"Alright, do you know who I am?"
"I don't care who you are, as long as I say no, you'll never be able to eat here!"
"Alright, just you wait!"
Seeing that fierce gaze, Lee Wanning only sneered. However, Huan Niang quickly came up and said, "Aiyo, Young Master Quan, what are you doing?"
In the blink of an eye, Huan Niang had already changed into a new set of clothes. She pulled at the man with a smile and said, "Look, why are you so angry? "Sit down, what do you want to eat?"
Lee Wanning looked at Huan Niang's extremely ugly expression and immediately pulled Huan Niang over, saying, "Have you not figured out your current identity? You are no longer … "
"You're the one that hasn't been identified, right?" Huan Niang cut her off coldly and said, "Please know your own identity. If he lets someone destroy our store, can you afford it? "Don't think that you can cook two dishes. If I give you some face, you will be acting cocky. Let me tell you, this is my territory, you don't have the right to be arrogant here!"
Huan Niang's words got worse as she said it. Big Brother Duan came over to pull her, but she was already pointing at his nose and said, "And you, who are you trying to mess with?" Yes, so what if I was a fake? One night's worth of money from my mother would be equivalent to a year's worth of money from you! "
