Beauty is too weak to be bullied

Chapter 16 People in the market (adding more to Najia's confession balloon)
Zhu Dalang is tall and strong, black and fat like a cow, his eyebrows are messed up like chicken coops, but his eyes are small, as bright as black beans, plus a big protruding nose and a huge lion's mouth, it is really unforgettable.

"I heard you're looking for me? Tell me something, I'm going to drink!"

He stood in front of the car, his voice was like thunder, and he was very impatient, and he was not polite because it was a thin woman who was looking for him.

"Zhu Zhuangshi." Du Qingtan pushed away the Cailan that was holding him tightly, lifted the curtain hat, and saluted Zhu Dalang: "My surname is Du, my father is Du Heng, and I used to be an attendant in the residence of Prince Huai."

"Huh!" Zhu Dalang put away his anxiety and looked at Du Qingtan in surprise, his gaze was direct and presumptuous.

Du Qingtan looked at him without avoiding it.

"It's really you." Zhu Dalang looked away, and motioned for her to follow him to the street: "What do you want me to do? Even if it's murder and arson, come and listen."

This person is really interesting, Du Qingtan smiled: "You have seen me? How do you know it's a big deal?"

Zhu Dalang said impatiently: "I used to see it often when I was young. You are a young lady from a high family. You haven't seen each other for many years. If you come here suddenly, you must have encountered a big problem."

The other party was straightforward, and Du Qingtan was also straightforward: "I want you to help me track down a family..."

She talked about the Xiao family, and asked Zhu Dalang: "See if there is any major event in his family in the past few days, such as hosting a banquet for distinguished guests. If so, try to get the guest list and the specific time. We also need to inquire about the homes of senior officials in Chang'an City." Are there any patients who have been cured for a long time and are in urgent need of recuperation?"

Due to limited conditions, medicine was not developed in this dynasty, and it was really hard to find good doctors. Therefore, if there was a patient in the family of a high-ranking official and a rich family who could not be cured for a long time, they would usually hang up the list to seek medical treatment.

The idlers who hang out in various workshops in Chang'an are the most well-informed and can easily find out.

"In addition, I would like to ask you to help find two reliable people to protect our family's safety, and they will be rewarded." Du Qingtan handed a small piece of gold to Zhu Dalang: "This is a deposit, and there will be other rewards afterwards."

Zhu Dalang refused to accept it, he raised his eyebrows and stared impatiently at Heidouyan: "Orphans and widows, who wants your money! Your father doesn't think I'm a rough person, and treats me as a brother, and you should call me a brother." I call uncle."

Du Qingtan didn't have any sense of family status, it was only natural for Dad's friend to call him uncle, so he immediately called, "Uncle Zhu."

"Well." Zhu Dalang said with his hips crossed: "Your aunt is very particular, she is afraid that I will bring down your reputation, so if you don't let me come to the door, it will be indifferent. If I had known that you had been bullied to this point, I would not have let it go! You go back, leave this matter to me!"

After saying that, he was about to send her to the car: "When I get someone to take you home, I will ask them to look after your house for the time being."

He stretched out his hand and waved to the two strong men: "Li Er, Ma Si, come and take my niece home! You all follow her these few days and listen to her orders."

Those two people were about to come over, but Dugu Buqiu had already walked over, and faced Zhu Dalang twice, with big eyes and small eyes, both arms crossed, no one would let the other.

"Who is this?" Zhu Dalang grew up in the market, full of a bully and domineering air, his eyebrows raised, his eyes raised, and he seemed to throw his fist at each other if he disagreed with him.

"This is Mr. Dugu." Du Qingtan hastily introduced: "He helped save Tuantuan before. I happened to meet him today, so I asked him to send me here."

Zhu Dalang was upset: "Then he is staring at me like this?"

"Is there?" Du Qingtan pretended to be blind even if he saw it.

"Of course not!" Dugu Buqiu curled up his red lips, and smiled very friendly and sincerely: "I'm just curious about what a knight looks like."

Zhu Dalang immediately found him pleasing to the eye, patted his shoulder vigorously and said, "Drink together next time!"

Having money works well.

Du Qingtan returned to Yongningfang, first rented an inn nearby for Dugu Buqiu and others, and then returned home with all his bags.

Mrs. Yang hasn't come back yet, so she laid out the herbs and ingredients she bought today, weighing three coins of Guizhi, two and a half cents of Atractylodes macrocephala, one cent of two cents of licorice, and one or two of coix seed, and submitted them to Cailan:

"Fry the first three flavors in water twice, remove the dregs, and save the soup to cook coix seed porridge. This is what I will eat for dinner today."

Cai Lan was very skeptical and didn't dare to move: "This... can it work? What if... you will be poisoned to death?"

"I can't die." Du Qingtan looked at the girl's stupid look, and decided to do it himself: "I'll come, you just help light the fire."

Coix seed is difficult to cook Fei Chai, so Du Qingtan soaks it first before cooking Guizhi Atractylodes. She cooks it slowly but not unfamiliar, and even enjoys it.

Cai Lan looked at such a strange yet familiar Wu Niang, and wrinkled her face into a ball of worry, what if she died of poison!
Yang stepped on the door of Mu Gu's house, stepped into the courtyard door, and saw more than a dozen little yellow chickens screaming "Jiji" running in the yard, so she was stunned: "This?"

Du Qingtan answered her in the kitchen: "I bought it. The chickens were just delivered. From now on, let's raise chickens to earn chicken eggs."

When the chicken grows up, it will "die of illness" or "accidental death" or even "suicide". At that time, it can be used to cook soup, eat meat and beat teeth.

Yang frowned: "No, where did the money come from?"

Cailan and Lao Yutou were too nervous to breathe, one hid behind the door and the other hid in a corner, neither dared to speak.

"I found a gold bracelet in the cabinet, and took it to the gold and silver shop to exchange some money. The debt at the tailor shop has been settled, so don't worry about it, my aunt."

Du Qingtan didn't bat an eye when he lied, he was more calm than the sun in the sky.

Yang definitely didn't believe it: "Why is the gold bracelet so easy to find? Why didn't you tell me earlier?"

"It's actually a relic left by my mother. I thought about it before, so I kept it secret from you..."

Du Qingtan twisted the corner of her clothes, said softly, very ashamed: "Auntie, don't blame me for being selfish."

Yang never imagined that such a well-behaved and sensible child would sell books privately. Just seeing her timid and fragile appearance, her heart softened half at first, and she sighed: "What am I blaming you for? Didn't you just take it all out?" Is it?"

Du Qingtan leaned over to beat her shoulders and legs: "Auntie has worked hard."

Yang looked at her niece, then at Tuantuan, and managed to hold back the tears.

Orphans and widows, why is it so difficult!
