After crossing over: kidnapping a female hunter to be the stepfather of the three cubs

Chapter 153 Found a treasure

Zhao Huanxi got up as soon as it was dawn.

She felt uncomfortable all over and didn't sleep well all night. She wondered if it was because Xu Qingzhao was not there.

When I came out to check, Chunliu and Xiahe were already in the kitchen cooking breakfast. Even Xu Qingzhao had come back from outside, looking like he had just fed the horses. It turned out that she was the last one to get up.

Chunliu came out of the kitchen and saw Huanxi had just finished washing her face. She stepped forward and said, "Madam, I heard a muffled sound coming from Linghua's room last night. I don't know what happened. Madam, would you like to open the door and take a look?"

"Go ahead and open it. This is your last meal at my house. You should eat your fill before letting them leave."

So Chunliu took the key and opened the door of Linghua's room.

When I opened the door, I found two people tied up tightly and sleeping on the ground. There was nothing unusual.

But Xiaodan had a fist-sized bump on his head, like a birthday star, which looked both pitiful and funny.

He shook them awake. He didn't want to ask what happened, but told Chunliu to bring breakfast for them.

At this time, Yuanzhen and Yuyan also got up. Zhao Huanxi asked Yuanzhen to take good care of her at home, and they would probably be back in the afternoon.

After dinner, Chunliu chatted with Yuanzhen for a while, then came out, got on the carriage, and went to the town with everyone.

Linghua and her son only had their hands tied and their mouths stuffed to prevent them from talking too much. So the two of them just looked angrily at Chunliu and Xiahe in the carriage.

Zhao Huanxi and Xu Qingzhao sat outside the carriage, being affectionate with each other, and didn't feel the tension in the carriage at all.

When they arrived in the town, Zhao Huanxi instructed Xu Qingzhao to go straight to the pawnshop where they had been before and deal with the two of them as soon as possible so that he could have some peace and quiet.

When the human trafficker saw the happy group of people with two tied-up people, he immediately realized that these people were the ones he had just sold some time ago.

"Hey, Master and Madam, long time no see. What's this?" The broker pointed at the tied mother and daughter and said.

Zhao Huanxi sneered, "These two are dishonest. I don't want them anymore. Return the money! I also feel bad for her carrying a child, but she turned out to be a sickly person, and she even dared to scold my daughter. I can't keep these two, so I'm returning them to you."

The broker was shocked when he heard this. He had a memory of this woman. He had checked her body when she was sold to him. She was a good girl. How could she be a sickly girl?

"Alas, madam, you are wrong. The little girl was examined at the time and was in good health. How could she be so sick? If you don't believe me, I will call a doctor to take a look."

Hearing this, Linghua twisted her body and tried to explain.

Zhao Huanxi signaled Chunliu with her eyes to pull the cloth off her mouth. Chunliu nodded and pulled the cloth ball out of Linghua's mouth.

"Madam, please don't sell us out. We know we were wrong and we will never do it again. Xiaodan does have a heart disease. I dare not lie to you." After saying that, Chunliu stuffed it in again.

Linghua's words were enough to make the man feel helpless. The doctor was a long-term partner and he wouldn't lie to her.

So he ordered his servant to go to the next street to call another doctor. This slave who sold his illness was sold at a good price, and if the news got out, it would damage his own reputation. So he had to investigate thoroughly.

"Master and Madam, please come with me to the front hall. The doctor will be here soon and will give you an explanation today. If this is truly our problem, we will definitely solve it for you."

He is indeed a good businessman. His words almost smoothed out all the resentment.

Chunliu and Xiahe followed behind them, not daring to look around. After all, they had lived through hard times here for a long time.

Half a cup of tea later, the servant called a doctor who came running over, looking exhausted. The agent went up to explain the situation, and the doctor went up to take Xiaodan's pulse.

After a moment, the doctor said, "There's nothing wrong with this little girl. She's in very good health. How could she have a heart attack? I've been practicing medicine for twenty years, and I've taken pulses for heart disease eight out of ten times. There's no sign of heart disease in this little girl."

The dentist stepped forward and said with a smile, "Madam, this doctor is from Shouchun Hall down the street. He will never make a mistake in taking a pulse."

Upon hearing this, Linghua was the first to collapse. She couldn't believe what she had heard. Her child was actually fine? What about her own past few years?

All our family savings were spent on her medical treatment and medicine. Now everything is fine?

She looked at Xiao Dan and couldn't believe that everything she had done over the years was a scam.

The doctor who took Xiaodan's pulse was a barefoot doctor from the village, and all the family's money went into his hands. If I had been willing to go to the town to see Xiaodan, would all this have happened?

When Xiaodan heard that she was fine, her first reaction was happiness. She could finally run and jump like a normal person and no longer have to be locked up at home like a prisoner.

Zhao Huanxi glanced at the two men's reactions and said to the trafficker, "Anyway, I don't want these two anymore. It's up to you whether I return them or sell them to you. Based on the attitude you just showed in resolving the issue, I'll definitely come to you next time I buy from you."

What he meant was that if you want me to be your repeat customer, you have to refund me the full amount.

How could the broker not understand her hidden meaning? But the money that had gone into his pocket was probably impossible to take out.

So he smiled awkwardly and said, "How about getting a replacement for Madam? Madam, you want someone who can grow herbs. A batch of goods just arrived a few days ago, and there's someone who can grow herbs in it. I was just wondering how to contact you~"

Zhao Huanxi was about to refuse when the agent said, "Madam, please don't be so hasty to refuse. Take a look first."

So he went inside and brought up the one who knew how to grow medicinal herbs.

It was another woman, about the same age as Huanxi, about eighteen or nineteen years old, with a pretty face, but there was an extremely scary scar on the right side of her cheek.

His eyes were dull, as if his soul had been drained.

When he saw Huanxi and the other two, he bowed politely and said without any expression:

"Hello, Master and Madam. My name is Su Yun. I used to be in charge of the medicinal herbs and the flower room in the master's house."

Zhao Huanxi looked at the little girl. She was very small, only about 1.5 meters tall, and had some freckles on her face.

"How many medicinal herbs do you know?"

I didn’t ask last time and suffered such a big loss. This time I have to ask clearly.

Su Yun lowered her head and said, "Madam, I know many medicinal herbs in the Classic of Materia Medica, but I am not so lucky and have never seen the rare ones."

“What flowers do you plant?”

"Orchids, peonies, bamboo, daffodils, camellias, azaleas, plum blossoms, chrysanthemums, osmanthus flowers, roses, peonies, lotus flowers, and many more."

Zhao Huanxi was extremely satisfied upon hearing this, but she didn't show it. If the trafficker saw this, he would definitely raise the price.

"I'll take her away. I won't ask you for the difference. Is that good enough?" After saying that, he looked at the human trafficker and waited for his answer.

The broker thought to himself that this person was much more valuable than the mother and daughter. The fact that the woman could read made her worth two taels of silver more.

Zhao Huanxi didn't care and asked him for the contract to sell his body. Then he left with everyone in a hurry. After Huanxi left the house and walked a long way, the trafficker realized that he had lost a lot of money.
