Jiang Ming was dumbfounded.
These two people actually fought for him, but in this kind of angry situation, they could still control themselves freely and not hurt each other at all. They were really experts.
Jiang Ming had rested enough and planned to leave.
Coincidentally, the village chief felt that he could not eat anymore.
“This place is simply unbearable!” the village chief complained.
Jiang Ming found it funny.
He was already so old, yet he was still so childish.
Then, he left with the village chief.
Along the way, the village chief accompanied him with good food and drinks. Jiang Ming sighed in his heart.
If it was not for the Yellow Gall Grass, he really would stay for a while longer.
When he returned to the village, Chu Wanwan was not around for the time being. Jiang Ming heaved a sigh of relief.
That was good. It was quiet and peaceful. There would not be so many troublesome things.
“Chief, you’re back.”
At this moment, the second daughter of the village, Chu Xinxin, came forward to show her concern.
The village chief looked angry.
“Did you quarrel with Qiu Zeshen?” Chu Xinxin was rather surprised. “Back then, even if you gave him all the silver, nothing would happen. Why…”
From Chu Xinxin’s point of view, Qiu Zeshen and the village chief would never fall out with each other. Their friendship was so deep that they could trust each other with all their wealth.
“Humph! Stubborn old man! He couldn’t keep up with the times! Stubborn loser!”
Chu Xinxin listened to everything and looked at Jiang Ming speechlessly.
The source of all this was obviously Jiang Ming.
However, he did not seem to have any reaction.
Jiang Ming stood where he was, feeling a little uncomfortable.
Why was everyone staring at him?
Chu Xinxin did not mention the quarrel. Instead, she asked Jiang Ming, “How’s your injury?”
She knew that her sister liked this person the most, so she could not get into a conflict with him.
“I’m okay,” Jiang Ming answered truthfully.
“Humph! A dignified master actually allowed his disciples to hit someone like this! What a scoundrel!”
The village chief was still indignant.
Chu Xinxin frowned.
She felt that if she allowed him to continue talking like this, something bad would happen.
“Chief, don’t say anymore. Don’t anger yourself.”
Chu Xinxin’s words made the village chief shut his mouth. He felt helpless.
“Chief, even if Qiu Zeshen is stubborn, he’s only this stubborn for you. He wants to protect you. Don’t you agree?”
Chu Xinxin was very diplomatic. Everyone loved hearing her speak.
The village chief’s expression became much better.
“Jiu Zhu just cured your illness and told you to rest well. You can’t be too tired or too angry. You can’t let him treat you for nothing, right?”
Her words hit the nail on the head again. The village chief nodded.
When Chu Xinxin saw this, she quickly took the opportunity to help him up. “You should rest more. Let me help you inside. Lie down.”
Jiang Ming stood rooted to the ground in a daze. He felt rather awkward as he watched Chu Xinxin and the village chief turn around and leave.
What about him? Should he leave too?
At this moment, Chu Xinxin turned around and gave him a look before secretly waving her hand.
Jiang Ming raised his eyebrows and did not move.
What was the meaning of this? Did she have something to say?
After a while, Chu Xinxin returned.
“Jiu Zhu, sit. Don’t just stand there.”
Chu Xinxin was very polite.
Jiang Ming also shook his head.
It was better for him to stand and talk. He was numb from sitting.
Chu Xinxin did not waste any more time. She directly stated her intentions. “Jiu Zhu, I think you should help the village chief.”
“Huh?”
Jiang Ming blurted out, dumbfounded.
However, he could more or less guess what Chu Xinxin meant.
He could tell that this woman was extremely intelligent and had a lot of ideas in her head.
“The chief and Mr. Qiu have been old friends for many years. People say that in this world, you may be friends today, but you may be enemies tomorrow. However, Mr. Qiu and the chief’s friendship has always been the same.”
“Miss Xinxin…”
Jiang Ming pondered.
“What do you mean by telling me this?”
“I want to speak to Mr. Qiu on behalf of the chief. I hope he’s not really angry. I want you to accompany me.”
Jiang Ming could not help but frown when he heard that.
“This matter was caused by you,” Chu Xinxin said.
Her gentle words were rather lethal.
Jiang Ming seemed to understand something and smiled.
This woman had stealthily placed him on the fire and was about to roast him.
“But…”
Jiang Ming pretended to hesitate and said, “Mr. Qiu is indeed very stubborn. Many disciples in the family feel the same as him. Will this work?”
He wanted to see how Chu Xinxin would respond.
“I think if we explain sincerely, he will eventually let this go. It was just a misunderstanding between good friends.”
Hearing Chu Xinxin’s words, Jiang Ming thought.
He was suddenly interested to hear what kind of person Qiu Zeshen was.
“In his early years, Mr. Qiu roamed the world with the chief and made friends with many capable people. At that time, they relied on some precious herbs to make money.”
Herbs?
“What kind of herbs?” Jiang Ming asked immediately.
Chu Xinxin did not know what Jiang Ming meant, so she said honestly, “Herbs like Yellow Gall Grass…”
Jiang Ming was shocked when he heard about the Yellow Gall Grass.
So, there was Yellow Gall Grass here!
He suppressed the joy in his heart and nodded seriously.
At this moment, Sikong Wuyuan and Yuan Hehe arrived.
“Jiu Zhu, I heard that you were injured again?”
As soon as the two of them came in, they happened to see the bruises on Jiang Ming’s face. In fact, Jiang Ming had left them there on purpose.
“What’s going on?”
The two of them became nervous
Jiang Ming was afraid that the two of them would lose their composure. He pulled them and smiled at Chu Xinxin. “I’ll go and prepare.”
“What are you preparing?” Yuan Hehe asked, still confused.
“Come with me.”
Jiang Ming pulled the two of them to his room. He lowered his voice and told them about his conversation with Chu Xinxin.
“Yellow Gall Grass? That’s great!”
Sikong Wuyuan was overjoyed.
“Keep your voice down,” Jiang Ming frowned.
When he first met Sikong Wuyuan, he was quite calm. Why did he change?
“Anyway, let’s go quickly.”
Yuan Hehe could not wait any longer.
Jiang Ming sat on the small bed and joked.
“What’s wrong? You won’t let me rest?”
The two coughed and quickly comforted him. “Jiu Zhu, you have a good body. This is nothing to you.”
“That’s right. Originally, you could travel thousands of miles overnight. Now, this is nothing.”
Yuan Hehe patted his shoulder.
Jiang Ming was helpless.
Did they think he was a god?
He naturally understood the urgency of the matter.
Anyway, Chu Xinxin was also anxious, so he would just go.
“Let’s go! We can’t let them wait for us.”
He stood up and set off with the two of them.
Soon, the four of them arrived at Qiu Zeshen’s residence. From afar, they saw Qiu Zeshen coming out of the main door, as if he was about to leave the residence.
