Chapter 62: The Clinic Was Robberized

Su Huairen saw the headmaster's expression and knew that he was worried about him.

"Don't worry, headmaster. We are upright and have nothing to fear." Su Huairen straightened his chest and strode towards the front hall with a righteous spirit.

It turned out that the official brought him a letter of appointment, Laiyang City Chief, responsible for documents and seals.

Although he was only a ninth-rank official, Su Huairen was very excited. He finally entered the official career again.

"Dad, tell Yue'er the good news quickly."

Su Huairen looked up at the sky, "Yue'er has gone home by now, it won't be too late to tell her tomorrow."

The headmaster congratulated him, and the two drank a few cups before going home.

When he just got home, Aunt Su pulled him to tell him that Sui Sui's father was the prince.

Su Huairen looked at the letter of appointment in his hand, and his heart was mixed.

It turned out that he could enter the official career again because of Yue'er.

That night, a group of men in black appeared outside the palace again.

After a fierce fight, two men in black fled.

"Don't chase a desperate enemy."

Xiao Jingzhao, who came upon hearing the news, raised his hand to stop the secret guards who were chasing them.

"Master, the two were injured, and they can't run far." The leader, An Yi, bowed and reported.

"It's better to leave a messenger in the capital to avoid repeated sneak attacks."

The secret guards dealt with the bodies on the ground, and Xiao Jingzhao led Xiang Song and Xiang Yang to the villa.

...

In front of the window, Jiang Shuyue rolled up her sleeves, revealing her white jade-like wrists, her black hair tied behind her head with a hairpin, and her face without a veil was so charming that people would fall in love with her at a glance.

She was seen moving the paper with the name of the medicine on the desk, and every time she moved it, she lowered her head and said something to her son.

The three of them had sharp hearing, and Xiao Jingzhao narrowed his eyes slightly.

This woman, why didn't she teach her son good medical skills, but taught him to make poison?

After standing in the distance for a while, Xiao Jingzhao turned around and left.

"Master, are we not going in?"

"No need to go in and disturb them. Let someone protect this place and don't let people in the capital find out." Xiao Jingzhao reluctantly withdrew his gaze.

Back at the palace, Xiao Jingzhao told Xiang Song, "Send the teacher I asked you to find to the garden tomorrow. Suisui is very smart and can be enlightened earlier."

"Master, I think it's better to bring Suisui back to the palace and let the young master teach him personally than to ask the teacher to go there."

Xiao Jingzhao certainly understood that Xiang Song's suggestion was correct. His elder brother was well-read and had great literary talent. He was the best person to teach his son.

Xiang Yang slapped his forehead and said, "Master, why don't you let Sui Sui enter Linjiang Academy."

Xiang Song glared at him sideways, "The youngest child in Linjiang Academy is six years old, and the young master is less than five years old. This is not appropriate."

Xiao Jingzhao originally planned to let Sui Sui enter Linjiang Academy, but the woman said she was going back to the capital, so he had to give up the idea.

The next day, just as Jiang Shuyue was about to go out, Xiang Song sent a gentleman in his fifties over.

"Guard Xiang, please tell your master a message. I have my own arrangements for Sui Sui's studies, so he won't have to worry about it."

Being decisively rejected by Jiang Shuyue, Xiang Song had to leave with people.

Just as Xiang Song was sent away, Xu Dong came.

"Miss, there was a thief in the clinic last night, and Dad has reported it to the authorities." Xu Dong wiped the sweat from his forehead and said anxiously.

This morning, he and his father went to the clinic, opened the door, and the medicinal materials were scattered all over the floor, and the clinic was in a mess.

Xu Dong's father asked him to keep an eye on the scene, and he went to the government office to report to the authorities. The government had not yet sent anyone, so Xu Dong's father came back from the government office and asked Xu Dong to inform Jiang Shuyue.

"Don't worry, there are only medicinal materials in the clinic, and the loss will not be too great." Jiang Shuyue said calmly.

"Medicine is not cheap!"

Xu Dong looked painful, although the daily consultation fee was not left in the clinic, there were still many valuable medicinal materials in the clinic.

Qiu Ju and Sui Sui stayed in the villa, and Jiang Shuyue followed Xu Dong to the clinic.

A group of people surrounded the clinic.

Someone said: "The thief came last night in a strange way, and stole three clinics in a row."

Jiang Shuyue pushed through the crowd and walked into the house, only to see several yamen runners checking the lost items.

Xu Dong's father bowed his head and counted the lost medicinal materials on the counter.

"Sir, both bottles of gold wound medicine are gone."

"Boss, not much was lost, but the house was too messy."

Seeing Jiang Shuyue enter the house, Xu Bo said with lingering fear.

"Miss Jiang."

A familiar voice sounded behind her.

Jiang Shuyue turned around and saw Xiang Yang bowing to her.

Xiao Jingzhao was sitting calmly in the position where she usually saw patients.

"Have you seen Xiang Song?"

"Yes, thank you for your kindness, the prince. This thief is thinking about the clinic. It seems that this clinic can't be opened anymore." Jiang Shuyue's words were very clear. She and her mother were leaving.

Looking at Jiang Shuyue's calmness, she didn't look scared at all.

The thief last night was undoubtedly the escaped assassin.

The yamen runner reported to Xiao Jingzhao and left.

Xu Bo was busy picking up the spilled herbs on the ground. Xu Dong heard the conversation between Jiang Shuyue and Xiao Jingzhao clearly.

Xu Dong came to Jiang Shuyue's side, "Miss, don't worry, the clinic can still be run. I will stay in the backyard of the clinic tonight."

Jiang Shuyue nodded, "This clinic has a kitchen and other things in the backyard, and your family of three can live there."

Jiang Shuyue took out the lease contract from her sleeve and handed it to Xu Dong.

"This clinic is given to you to manage. It has only been open for more than a month. With Xu Bo's medical skills, Jishitang will definitely be able to operate."

Xu Dong was stunned, "Miss, what are you doing..."

Jiang Shuyue put the contract into Xu Dong's hand, "Take it, you can also make the recipe for slimming tea, and your family of three will definitely live better and better."

Xiao Jingzhao looked at the bright and charming woman in front of him and said to the boy with a pleasant face, and her tone was as warm as spring breeze.

He suddenly envied the boy.

After hearing this, Xu Bo quickly put down his work and walked over.

"Boss, this is not allowed. If the boss has something to take care of, my father and I can help the boss to manage the clinic and send the profits to the boss every month."

"Uncle Xu, I didn't plan to stay in Laiyang for a long time, so you can accept it with peace of mind." Jiang Shuyue was firm.

"Miss Jiang is busy first, see you in the other garden later."

Xiao Jingzhao got up and walked out after saying a word.

Jiang Shuyue: "..."

Leaving now?

Xu Dong and his son were grateful to Jiang Shuyue.

If she hadn't left the clinic quickly, Xu Dong would have knelt down and kowtowed.

On the way here, Xu Dong had told her about Uncle Su getting a ninth-rank official position.

As soon as she entered the courtyard, Aunt Su and Su Hui came up to greet her with smiles on their faces.

"Congratulations, Aunt, isn't Uncle at home?"

Aunt Su smiled so hard that her teeth were showing. She didn't know that the clinic had been robbed.

"The old man was so happy that he didn't sleep well all night. He went to the government office to take up his position early this morning."

"Aunt, Hui, I gave the clinic to Uncle Xu. I will go back to the capital in a few days. When I finish my work in the capital, I will come to Laiyang to see you." Jiang Shuyue was still busy going back to the villa, so she said bluntly.
