Chapter 210

Upon hearing this, Shao Wu couldn't help but tease Song Yubao: "Oh, Mr. Song! You want to get promoted and make a fortune! Look, all the people who come to give gifts are here."

He approached the man with a sly smile, elbowed him, winked a few times and said, "Good brother, if you become rich, don't forget me!"

Song Yubao glared at him and said, "Don't talk nonsense here."

But there are still doubts in my heart.

Who could it be? Why would they send him a feast?

After thinking about it, he couldn't think of anything that could match the number.

"I don't know any young lady, and there is no so-called Mr. Song here."

Song Yubao made a prompt decision: "You should take all your things back."

The waiter was distressed, and before he could say anything, Shao Wu next to him couldn't help but get anxious.

He kept on talking, scolding her without giving any explanation: "You fool! How can you not take advantage of the opportunity? They even mentioned the name of the gift, saying it was for Mr. Song Yubao, so it must be for you. How could it be wrong? You, on the other hand, pushed away the good things that were delivered to your door."

God knows how excited he was when he saw such a sumptuous meal.

With this configuration, even if he spent three months' salary, he might not be able to eat one of the dishes.

This kid is so good, he is still acting like a good boy after getting the advantage.

There are good things to eat for free, but you don’t even know to pick them up.

What a fool!

With Shao Wu's persuasion, the waiter heaved a sigh of relief and said, "Sir, please don't make it difficult for me. This is something the boss specifically asked us to send to you. We, the shopkeeper, have even received the money. If I fail to deliver the item and ruin the business, we, the shopkeeper, will skin me alive."

"Please be flexible and consider it as a favor to me..."

Song Yubao frowned and wanted to refuse.

Jiang Anning arrived quietly.

"Isn't it a bad timing for me to come here?" She spoke first to break the deadlock between the three people.

When the waiter looked up and saw her, he felt like he had seen a savior.

"Hey, sir, you are finally here!"

He walked over and said in a flattering manner: "Please have a good talk with this official. You asked us to send this feast, and we have delivered it exactly as you requested, without any less or any difference."

The waiter didn't dare to say anything wrong about Song Yubao. He just kept winking at Jiang Anning, looking extremely anxious.

I was afraid that this business deal would fall through in his hands.

If he goes back, won’t the shopkeeper scold him to death?
He might even have to pay for it!
This table of food would cost at least two taels of silver!

His monthly salary is less than three cents. If anything goes wrong, I won’t be able to afford the compensation even if I sell him!
Jiang Anning smiled at him soothingly.

Then he looked at Song Yubao: "Master Song, are you not satisfied with the table? If you are not satisfied..."

Before she could finish her sentence, "I'll change something new for you," Song Yubao interrupted her and asked, "Did you have someone send this table of food over?"

Song Yubao still has a deep impression of Jiang Anning.

That day, he was promoted because of this young lady who came over and told him the news that Zhao Yinlian had been murdered.

His sister was even promoted to a concubine, and is now quite favored and valued by the county magistrate's wife, who always keeps her by her side.

However, such changes were also very distressing to him.

But he had no one to tell his troubles.

Everyone just thought he was in high spirits, but they didn't know how anxious and uncomfortable he was inside.

"Yes!"

Jiang Anning smiled slightly and looked at Song Yubao.

Song Yubao glanced at Shaowu, seeing the careless and heartless man, he became particularly shrewd at this moment. He walked up to him, put his arm around the waiter's neck, and walked out with his men like brothers.

"I heard that your restaurant has a special feature. Can you tell me in detail what it is? I heard that..."

He talked about random topics and led people further and further away.

Song Yubao looked serious as he looked at Jiang Anning and said, "Young lady, what is the matter with you looking for me?"

His sister had been telling him a truth a long time ago: If someone is too nice to you for no reason, he is either a traitor or a thief!

Jiang Anning only met him once that day. Even if he really did something good for her that day, she was grateful and wanted to repay him, so she had already sent him some tea to express her gratitude.

Everything is clear between them now, and no one owes anyone anything.

In fact, if you really think about it...he owes her.

If Madam Jiang had not sent him the news, he would probably have no chance to show up in front of the county magistrate, let alone his sudden rise to fame.

But this kind of news cannot be told to outsiders.

Song Yubao had no doubt that if he really expressed his gratitude to Jiang Anning, or if they had any interaction beyond what they should have, he would be the one to lose his life in an accident.

Even his sister and family members will be implicated.

He must understand nothing and know nothing.

He just thought that all this was because the county magistrate doted on his sister and loved her so much that he also took a liking to him.

"I came here to bother you, Lord Song, because I have something to ask of you. I wonder if you could help me?"

As soon as Jiang An Ning finished speaking, Song Yubao immediately became alert: "W-what's the matter?" As expected, his elder sister was right, if someone is too attentive to you for no reason, he is either a traitor or a thief.

Look, isn’t this thief here at your doorstep?
Ever since he was promoted and appreciated by the county magistrate, his elder sister was also promoted to the status of concubine, and more and more people came to visit their family.

Either this person asks him to help with this thing, or that person asks him to help with that thing, it's endless and endless.

It really gave him a headache.

Now, here comes another...

It is extremely dangerous!!
Song Yubao didn't dare to think about what kind of bloody storm would happen if the county magistrate knew that he had private dealings with Jiang Anning and had helped her.

He has a terrible headache.

I really don't want to get involved in these messy things.

"Today, a scoundrel who defamed the county magistrate in public was beaten with a stick and sentenced to prison."

"I would like to ask Lord Song to help me meet this person and ask him some questions."

Song Yubao was slightly surprised: "Slandering the county magistrate in public?"

"Yes……"

Jiang An Ning showed a bit of embarrassment, and blushed a little: "Speaking of which, this matter is also somewhat related to me. Originally, it was Zhao Hai's younger brother Zhao Jiang. I don't know why, but he suddenly came to the embroidery workshop where I work..."

She briefly explained to everyone what happened on the street today.

After hearing the whole story, Song Yubao was slightly surprised, but he already knew in his heart who Jiang Anning wanted to see: "Are you talking about the one named Yang Qing?"

Jiang Anning nodded: "It's him!"

"I think this is a bit too strange. How could someone have such great malice towards a stranger for no reason, and yet speak so confidently and knowingly, making up such nonsense, and saying such evil words that ruin a person's reputation, just like he said it without thinking."

"I always feel that this is not a coincidence, so I wonder if you can help me."

She frankly admitted her purpose without hiding it.

He also thought that it would be best if he could indirectly convey a message to the county magistrate through Song Yubao, so that the county magistrate would also have some doubts in his heart and be willing to help investigate this crazy man in the street.

She was outside just now and heard from afar that person congratulating Song Yubao on his promotion and wealth.

Considering the notice specially issued by the government office before, which framed Zhao Yinlian's death on Sheng Yuewen, who was already dead and could not testify, it is not difficult to guess that this was most likely due to Song Yubao's message.

Jiang Anning smiled shyly: "It just so happens that I also have some news to give to Zhang, so I'll trouble you, Master Song."

Song Yubao was silent for a long time.

He thought Jiang Anning would give up, but he seemed so patient, as if he would not give up until he got his help.

He hesitated for a while, then let out a long breath: "Yang Qing, I'm afraid you won't be able to see me for a while."

"Thirty lashes would have been enough to kill him."

"The man is still breathing, but that's only because the executioner was worried that the county magistrate would not be able to vent his anger, so he deliberately held back a bit of force and didn't kill him outright."

"But now his legs are paralyzed, and everything below the waist is bloodshot and rotten. He is no different from being dead."

"Right now, the doctor is helping with the treatment."

"Whether I can survive and stay alive depends on whether God will give me face."

Song Yubao realized that he had said something wrong and did not continue speaking.

Turning to Zhang, he said, "When you came to see her that day, you told her about Zhao Yinlian's murder. Maybe that stimulated her. Now, she is still a little crazy and doesn't seem to be sober."

"Even if you have any news...she may not be able to understand it."

Song Yubao sighed, but he didn't really want Jiang An Ning to meet Zhang.

Jiang Anning couldn't help but be a little surprised.

"Zhang, are you crazy?"

So suddenly?

She always felt that something was not real.

"That scoundrel is dying and it's inconvenient to see him. I wonder if you could trouble Lord Song to do me a favor and let me go see Zhang."

Jiang Anning said: "There are some things that she should know after all."

Otherwise, wouldn’t Zhao Hai have been killed in vain?

Zhao Hai's death was originally too easy. If he couldn't make any further use of his power, then that beast would have gotten away with it in vain!
Jiang Anning gritted her teeth slightly and suppressed the hatred surging in her heart.

Song Yubao didn't notice anything wrong. After struggling for a moment, he gave in and nodded, "Okay."

"You come with me."

He led his men to the most secluded corner deep inside the cell.

As they walked, he explained, "Since you left that day, Zhang has gone crazy a few times. It doesn't look like she was pretending, so we decided to put her in a corner where no one is, and let her live alone."

"It will also prevent him from going crazy and hurting some innocent person."

Jiang Anning nodded slightly and said "hmm" softly to show her understanding.

But he still had doubts in his heart as to whether Zhang was really crazy or just pretending to be crazy.

Change the text... Damn, I found a huge bug that confused Zhao Jiang with another minor villain

I am so annoyed. It involves several chapters. I am so tired of changing it.
