Chapter 604 You really don’t deserve her

Seeing the excitement here, the neighbors who put down their dishes and ran over stood in the yard and greeted Shopkeeper Qi in the house.

Seeing that he was fine, everyone went back to eat.

When Zhang Qi was taken away, the baggage with money in her hands fell to the ground.

Qi Tiandong returned to the house, picked up the baggage and scattered coins on the floor and placed them next to his father.

Shopkeeper Qi saw that it was getting late, so he said to his son:

"Dong'er, Miss Qiao is the savior of our father and son, you have to thank her!"

"After all this fuss, everyone is hungry now, right? Angelica doesn't have time to make dinner. Otherwise, why don't you take Miss Qiao to a better restaurant nearby and treat Miss Qiao to a meal? After dinner, send Miss Qiao back. , it’s not safe for her to go back alone this late at night.”

"All the money at home is here. Logically speaking, Miss Qiao saved two of our lives. I can't give her all the money to repay this life-saving grace."

"It's just that the drug store still needs some money to buy medicinal materials, so you can keep two hundred taels and give the rest to Miss Qiao as today's consultation fee. As for this life-saving grace, I can only repay it in the future when I make money!"

Qi Tiandong agreed and turned to Qiao Ran for consultation:

"Miss Qiao, you are so rude! Look, my house is in a mess now, and the reception is not good. Please forgive me! It is dinner time now. I will invite the girl to have dinner at Xiangmanlou, and then send the girl back!"

Qiao Ran shook her head and refused:

"No, it's too dark to travel at night. I can rush back for dinner while it's still dark. Just go ahead and don't bother to entertain me. As for the medical fee and the reward for my saving your life, I'll give you two hundred taels. Bar!"

When they were on the mountain, Qi Tiandong said that although his family was not wealthy, they could still afford three to five hundred taels.

This medium-sized drug store has been able to open in this bustling area for who knows how many generations. It must have accumulated a lot of wealth.

The Qi family was not considered a poor family, so Qiao Ran didn't ask for much, so she just accepted two hundred taels. In fact, it was she who saved the Qi family, father and son, otherwise they would have met in the underworld.

When Qi Tiandong heard that Miss Qiao didn't want to eat or deliver it herself, he quickly said:

"But it's going to be dark today, so I don't feel comfortable walking back alone on the mountain road. Otherwise, I'd better let Angelica drive my carriage, and he and I will follow your carriage to take you back to the village!" "

Qiao Ran glanced at him and said funnyly:

"You don't trust me? Then who rescued you? If you send me back, you have to drive back at night. Why bother? Okay, I don't need you to send me back. I can just go back by myself."

Qi Tiandong glanced at his father, and Shopkeeper Qi said:

"Then just do what Miss Qiao said! Miss Qiao, go back by yourself, and be careful on the way."

He reached out and picked up the few banknotes on the baggage, keeping two of them, and gave the others to his son, indicating that he would hand them over to his savior.

Qi Tiandong wanted to hand all these banknotes to Qiao Ran, but Qiao Ran took out two of the 100-tael denominations, pushed the others back to him, and then turned around and left coolly.

Looking at her back, Qi Tiandong's eyes were filled with gratitude and very complicated emotions.

"Dong'er!...Dong'er?"

Shopkeeper Qi, who was on the bed, saw his son staring blankly at the door and called him twice.

"Ah? Dad, what did you say?"

Qi Tiandong came back to his senses and looked at his father blankly.

Shopkeeper Qi couldn't help but sigh when he saw his son's lost look, and said sincerely:

"Dong'er, Miss Qiao is our savior. Without her, we would have to go to the underworld to meet your mother. The Qi family would be extinct, and the medicine shop that has been passed down for generations will also have to change its surname. Qiao You can never forget this girl’s great kindness in your whole life, and you must repay her well if you have the chance!”

"But you also need to know your identity. Not to mention that we are just a merchant. Although Miss Qiao is a peasant girl, her maternal ancestral home is the General's Mansion, and she herself is a great miraculous doctor who is even more powerful than the ghost doctor."

"She is a rare and wonderful woman. A husband who is worthy of her will definitely be an extraordinary person. Daddy is not saying that you are not good, but that you really are not worthy of her, so you should get rid of this idea as soon as possible. Bar!"

Qi Tiandong trembled when he heard this, and looked up at his father. The panic and grievance in his eyes made Shopkeeper Qi feel distressed.

"Dong'er, don't think about the people and things you can't get. You should be more down-to-earth in your life. When dad gets better, I'll ask the matchmaker to find out about the families of well-matched girls in the city. Let me tell you. It's a marriage. You are the only one in our family. Now that you are not young, you can start talking about marriage."

Qi Tiandong listened to his father's words silently, feeling sad.

After a while, he nodded with red eyes: "Dad, I understand."

While cleaning up the mess in the house, Angelica listened to the conversation between her boss and Shaodong's family, feeling sad for Shaodong's family.

But he also had to admit that Miss Qiao was indeed too good to be worthy of her young master.

None of the three people in the room knew that after they finished speaking, a figure quietly left on the roof.

After Qiao Ran left the backyard of Shanrentang and was about to walk out of the alley, she saw someone waiting at the entrance of the alley.

"Master Mo? Why are you here?"

Mo Beihan chuckled: "I happened to pass by."

Qiao Ran looked at the person leaning against the wall at the entrance of the alley, then looked back at the alley behind her. Thinking of the speed at which the government officials arrived, she thought directly and asked directly:

"Did you ask the government officials to come here and arrest people?"

Mo Beihan chuckled lightly: "You don't blame me for being nosy, right? I was eating at Juxian Building just now, and I saw you passing downstairs, but you were heading to the north of the city. I happened to be here for something, so I followed you When I got to the back, I didn’t expect to accidentally hear something like that, so I called Capt. Liu and others who were passing by to come over here.”

Qiao Ran was speechless when she heard this.

This lie is so poor and full of loopholes.

Where is such a coincidence? He must have followed him here on purpose.

However, it could be considered that they had helped her, so Qiao Ran still thanked her sincerely:

"How could it be? I would like to thank Mr. Mo very much! Also, thank you very much Mr. Mo for helping me win the ownership of the two mountains in Devil's Valley last time! I really don't know how to repay you for this great gift. Otherwise, , can I give you half of the consultation fee you gave me last time?"

When Mo Beihan heard this, the smile on his face became even brighter.

He laughed and waved his hand:

"You're welcome! After all, you saved my elders, and I should fight for rewards for you. As long as you don't mind me occasionally visiting Devil Valley as a guest in the future, I really like the villagers in your village, they are so humane. Got it!"

Qiao Ran also smiled: "I don't mind, of course I don't mind! Mr. Mo is welcome to visit our village. Come to my house for dinner. My mother and third aunt will definitely entertain you with delicious food."
