Chapter 446: Chapter 446: Completely Surrounded Chapter 446: Chapter 446: Completely Surrounded “But now… seems like there’s nothing to do.”
She’ll ask Zhe Jue about the shopfront when he returns, but Zhe Jue has gone to fetch Zhong You. He wouldn’t be back anytime soon. Even when he returns, it won’t be possible to find a shopfront immediately, they need to inquire slowly.
Suddenly, her eyes brightened as she looked at Ya Molian.
“Brother Molian, we have nothing much to do now, shall we go to Jianan City?” she suggested.
It’s about time to visit the Elder Princess as well, she needs to make minor adjustments to the prescription she had given beforehand.
Ya Molian glanced at her, asking.
“Yes, the prescription I gave to the Elder Princess needs minor adjustments, and I think I forgot something quite important.” Lin Caisang nodded.
She had suddenly remembered that she left Zeng Yulang, who had a disfigured face, high and dry.
But it wasn’t her fault. Previously, she was injured and then Ya Molian was poisoned. It almost frightened her soul out of her, so naturally she wouldn’t think of Zeng Yulang.
But it’s not too late now she’s remembered, is it?
“Let’s go, you’ll know when we reach.”
Lin Caisang didn’t explain further and directly pulled him along.
At the entrance of Zeng Yulang’s house in Jianan City, people were everywhere.
Old Man Zeng leaned against his door to peek through the crack. Merely a glance was enough for it to send him hastily retreating back into the courtyard.
“Yulang, what do you think this crowd is trying to do? What’s the use of surrounding our house?” He wore a worried look, addressing his son who was sitting on a stone bench.
Their Zeng family was now infamous. The crowd waiting outside was filled with butlers, guards, nannies, serving girls of influential officials, and nobles. They would wait as soon as the rooster crowed and then disappeared when the street was deserted.
Upon hearing his father’s words, Zeng Yulang looked at him indifferently and shook his head.
“Whose fault is it? Isn’t it all because you flaunted my now-cured face disfigurement to anyone who would listen?”
If his father hadn’t bragged about how his disfigured face could be saved, and the fact that his neighbors actually saw the scars on his face had remarkably faded, thus resulting in the next-to-next-to-next-to-next-to-next propagation, why would people from families who have individuals with scars come every day to surround their home?
“…how was I supposed to know it would end up ?”
Old Man Zeng blushed at his son’s words, extremely embarrassed.
His son’s face was saved and he was overjoyed. He just wanted to joy with everyone so that they could congratulate him. Did he do anything wrong?
“Are you hungry? Shall I cook some noodles for you? We still have some salted pork at home, how about pickled cabbage and pork noodles?” he asked.
What else could they do now? With so many people waiting for that maiden, they didn’t even dare to go out and buy groceries, fearing that these people would break into their house and start asking questions.
And these people all hold authority in their hands, none of them were they able to mess with.
“Dad, after they leave, ask Uncle Yin from next door to help us buy some groceries. Even if we have to pick them up the next night, it’s not a big deal.” He suggested.
It has been several days since he had fresh vegetables? It made him want to open up a plot in their backyard for some gardening, but they didn’t even buy the seeds yet.
Old Man Zeng agreed repeatedly.
