Heaven-Sent Farm Girl Builds Her Fortune And Captures His Heart-Chapter 553 - 552: Take Them Down

Du Bingxue said, "I’ll write a prescription for you in a moment; drink it twice when you get home and you’ll be fine."

"Thank you, young lady!" Mrs. Wang pulled out a faded pouch from her pocket, looking somewhat embarrassed, "Miss, I came in a hurry, and I only have a few coins on me, you see..."

"No need!" Du Bingxue replied, "I never charge for treating people."

She unhooked the pouch and handed it to Mrs. Wang, saying, "Here are fifty taels, take it to buy medicine for the child."

"I can’t accept this!" Mrs. Wang refused, "Young lady, you have a heart of a Bodhisattva, not even charging for consultation, how can I let you spend your silver?"

"Take it," Du Bingxue insisted, pushing the pouch into Mrs. Wang’s hand, "The medicine I prescribe is tonic and not cheap, so please use it for the child."

"This..." Mrs. Wang looked at Wang Tianyou, who then turned to Du Bingxue and said, "Miss, we may be poor, but we can still scrape together fifty taels; we cannot let you bear the cost."

Saying this, he returned the pouch from Mrs. Wang’s hand to Du Bingxue.

Du Bingxue sighed lightly but said no more, reattaching the pouch to her waist.

"Mother~"

From the bed came the faint voice of the child.

Mrs. Wang hastened forward, clasping the child while choking back tears, "Little Bao, it’s okay, mother is here!"

The child said, "Mother, I’m hungry..."

Mrs. Wang sniffled, "Alright, mother will take you to eat something tasty!"

Du Bingxue said, "For now, don’t let him eat anything else; start by giving him some porridge."

Mrs. Wang nodded, expressing gratitude repeatedly to the two.

Before leaving, Wang Tianyou looked at the two with some concern and asked, "You’ve helped us, will those people come after you?"

"Don’t worry," Du Bingxue replied, "They cannot do anything to us."

Wang Tianyou gave Du Bingxue a meaningful glance, then bade farewell to the two before leaving with Mrs. Wang.

Not long after the siblings had left, Shen Qinglan and Du Bingxue heard chaotic footsteps outside the courtyard.

They exchanged glances, sharing a knowing cold smile.

"Here it is, I saw them enter this residence with my own eyes."

As the voice fell, the courtyard gate was slammed shut, "Open the door, open the door, the Government is handling a case."

Shen Qinglan leisurely stepped out of the house, walked up to the courtyard gate, and opened it, her eyes coldly surveying the crowd outside.

A fat man, supported by others, pointed at Shen Qinglan, shouting angrily, "Constable Tian, it’s her, she was the one who attacked us!"

Others echoed, "Yes, yes, it was her!"

"Who are you?" The constable Tian growled fiercely, "Dare to bully the Zhao Family’s young master in Tingtai City!"

"Which one is the Zhao Family’s young master?" Shen Qinglan asked as she turned to see Du Bingxue approaching her.

Du Bingxue cast a disinterested glance at the fat man and said indifferently, "The dead fatty you see, only flesh, no eyes."

"How dare you!" The attendant supporting the fat man cried, "In Tingtai City, there are few who dare to bully our young master, yet you dare to insult him right in front of him!"

Du Bingxue sneered, dismissing it, "When did speaking the truth become an insult?"

"You—" the fat man fumed, "Constable Tian, take them down now!"

Constable Tian fawned, "Don’t worry Zhao Gongzi, I will surely avenge you!"

"Take us down?" Du Bingxue laughed coldly, "Not to mention a mere constable, even if your superior comes, they wouldn’t dare arrest us."
