Chapter 71
"They're all from my own family, so why not be polite."

Wen Liyu was so gentle, Cheng Weiyao was really not used to it, she glanced at the direction of the officials from the corner of her eye, thinking that Wen Liyu should go upstairs to rest early, so that she could find a chance to show her her foot injury.

Before Cheng Weiyao could open his mouth, an old man dressed in coarse linen came in at the entrance of the inn. His stooped and thin body was hidden in the loose robe, which made his figure even thinner. Although his temples were gray, his eyes looked radiant.

The old man attracted the attention of the officials as soon as he entered the door. After all, he was resting in the wild, unlike when he was in the county town, staying in an inn dedicated to exile.

The wild inn is privately owned by the merchant, and the visitors are customers, people come and go, the merchant is open for business normally, and it is not easy for officials to intervene.

This time, all the dignitaries were exiled, and some relatives and friends secretly hired people to rob them, worried that they would not be able to endure the hardship.Then the safety and stability of the exile team can only rely on the self-consciousness of the exiles and the guards of the officials.

"Look, take a look, we are a poor beggar. Hello, uncle, poor poor man. Give me a steamed bun, give me some soup, I wish you a long life and good health, let me?, I will?, uncle Out of wealth?..."

The old man entered the inn, walked around the lobby with his eyes, then staggered to the table of the officials, and started begging under the frowning eyes of the officials.

"Go, go, ask for it, we are not a rich family, and we don't have spare money to send you."

Wang Gang waved his hand like chasing flies, and the officials all heaved a sigh of relief, and the hands on the knife were naturally released. He was just a beggar, and it was a false alarm.

All the people in the exile team usually pampered and made friends with literati and inkmen. They also avoided this kind of beggars, and they all used excuses to go upstairs to rest, fearing that they would be tainted with poverty and beggars in front of their own eyes.

"Little girl, please do me a favor. Pity me, an old man. I haven't eaten for three days. Good intentions must be rewarded. We welcome the God of Wealth every month..."

The old man begged at Cheng Weiyao's table in a blink of an eye. After the imperial concubine arrived at the inn, she took Wen Chengming upstairs to rest. Only Wen Liyu, Cheng Weiyao, and Wen Chengyun were left at this table.

Cheng Weiyao sniffed slightly, doubting the old man's status as a beggar. Although he looked a little embarrassed, there was no peculiar smell on his body, and his spirit did not look like he had been hungry for three days.

And there were three people at my table, Wen Chengyun, the man in charge, was sitting, with his hair tied up in a bun, he could see that he was married, so he didn't open his mouth, but begged Wen Liyu for it?Wen Liyu's hair bun looks like a girl who has not left the court. If it were an ordinary family, she would not have the power to run the house, so where would she get the money to show her kindness.

"Old man, we really don't have any money, and we are not rich, so you can ask for it elsewhere..."

Wen Liyu had a thin skin, and she looked away a little embarrassedly. It would be fine if the old man was a rascal begging, but he said a lot of nice words, and she was so stubborn, it was really unreasonable.

"You little girl looks white and clean, how can you be pickier than an iron cock, I've spent a long time talking..."

The old man saw the appearance of the oil and salt, and sat down at the table with his sleeves and buttocks flicked on the spot, and started to be a rascal.

Cheng Weiyao's face darkened slightly, beggars walked around the streets singing, mouthful of auspicious words, in order to get a lottery and get a few more copper coins.

When I was begging, I had a bad nose and sang for a long time. If the person who was begged didn't show anything at all, it is conceivable that the lyrics to be sung next would not be good ones.

Cheng Weiyao was considering whether to send three melons and two dates as a hush money, and was touching the copper plate, only to hear Wen Liyu's pretty face turned pale and she screamed.

"You! Prodigal son! Old and unscrupulous! I will report to the police to arrest you, believe it or not!"

Wen Liyu's small face was flushed with anger, and as soon as she lifted her foot, she was going to kick the old man on the ground. The world is so cold and the world is getting worse, but this old man suddenly touched his ankle. It really is that the forest is big and there are all kinds of birds...

The old man was agile, rolled to the side, patted the clothes on his body and got up with a smile: "Look at you little girl, how can a dog bite Lu Dongbin, and you don't know a good heart?"

Cheng Weiyao blinked slightly, the sister-in-law's feet seem to be able to move, this old man is probably not a barefoot doctor...

"You're still quibbling... Hey, it seems that it doesn't hurt so much."

It was only then that Wen Liyu realized from the meaningful eyes of the old man that her feet seemed to be able to move. Although that moment was really painful, her ankles can now move freely.

Cheng Weiyao silently gave the old man a thumbs up. Normally, the fracture should be reset two to three hours after the fracture, but the officials watched closely and had no chance to do it himself.

The most important thing is that I haven't reset anyone else yet, so even if I do it, I will inevitably be a little nervous, but the old man's arrival is so coincidental, and the treatment method is so clever and concealed, the officials who beat him are hard to guard against. Is it really just a coincidence?

Cheng Weiyao glanced curiously at Wen Chengyun, who was sitting beside him drinking tea, with calm eyebrows and eyes. A cheap husband is definitely not as simple as it seems on the surface. With his power, it shouldn't be a problem to find a doctor in a short time...

Wen Chengyun gently blew on the tea in the cup, and let Cheng Weiyao look at it openly, without saying a word from the beginning to the end.

However, the old man's next move completely dispelled Cheng Weiyao's doubts. He flicked up his robe, sat down on the long bench calmly, spread his hands, and began to ask for the fee for visiting the doctor.

"Okay, the fracture has been fixed for you, don't say much, just settle my consultation fee? It's not much, five taels of silver..."

Wen Liyu originally wanted to thank the old man. After all, if he had revealed his identity from the beginning, according to the nature of the officials, he would be kicked out directly, and he would not be allowed to receive treatment.

But the old man's lion mouth really made her a little unacceptable. If it was the past, he would have given it without blinking an eye. But now that she has been exiled, she already knows the preciousness of the material, so naturally she cannot accept this expensive medical treatment. gold.

"Why don't you go and rob? Who asked you to cure me, I don't need it!"

Facing Wen Liyu's yelling, the old man raised his eyelids slightly and replied confidently.

"Robbery violates the law, and you will be wanted by the government. I can heal your wounds with my ability, so what's the matter with charging some money... You want to kick me, I think you are a girl, and I haven't bothered with you yet..."
