"Please save my daughter!" Zhang Liuniang looked at Shen Rong with tears in her eyes.

Her daughter was sick, so she risked her life to run out in order to find a doctor to treat her daughter. However, she was not careful and almost hit the carriage. She was also caught by the person guarding her.

Shen Rong looked at Zhang Liuniang, whose forehead was already red and swollen, and couldn't help but recall the amazement she felt when she first saw her in the town.

"Husband, please buy both mother and daughter!"

The chief nodded and looked at the man, "Why don't you bring the person over here."

The other man nodded and bowed and went back to get the person.

When the man dragged out an unconscious girl of eight or nine years old, Zhang Liuniang rushed over.

"Yun'er!"

"What's wrong with this guy?" Changsheng frowned.

The trafficker was worried that Changsheng would not want to buy the sick little girl. "This child has a fever and is a little confused. She will be fine after taking a dose of medicine when she returns home."

Wang Qing snorted coldly, "Are you a doctor? You can cure it if you say so? Does it cost nothing to see a doctor and prescribe medicine?"

Then he said to Changsheng, "Master, no one would buy a dying child like this. Let's just buy the older one."

Zhang Liuniang was immediately anxious when she heard this. She looked at Shen Rong and asked for some words of love, but Shen Rong shook her head and used her eyes to comfort her not to be impulsive. She calmed down.

Before Changsheng could say anything, the man got anxious and said, "Oh no! No, this child is very cheap! How about this, you can take the child away for five taels of silver."

"What? Such a sickly child still costs five taels. Are you taking advantage of my master?" Wang Qing screamed.

The human trafficker said with an embarrassed look on his face, "These two people were transported from the south, and we spent a lot of money along the way..."

"Hmph! It's just one or two taels of silver. If you don't want to sell it, then take it back and use it to treat her illness!" Wang Qing snorted coldly.

Changsheng didn't say a word the whole time, just looked at the two men expressionlessly.

He had already recognized that this woman was the owner of the rouge shop.

As soon as Wang Qing finished speaking, he quickly turned around and was about to get on the carriage, as if he didn't want either of them anymore.

The trafficker got anxious, "Sir, please don't leave! I'll sell it, I'll sell it!"

After saying that, he hurriedly grabbed Wang Qing.

Changsheng threw a silver ingot to Wang Qing, and Wang Qing had to reluctantly buy the person for his master.

Zhang Liuniang got into the carriage carrying the child.

She looked at Shen Rong and saw a hint of discomfort flash across her face.

Shen Rong didn't ask anything. She took a look at the child first. Seeing that she had a high fever, she hurriedly asked Wang Qing to drive the carriage to the clinic to treat the child.

Zhang Liuniang looked at Shen Rong with gratitude.

Shen Rong comforted her, "Don't worry, Madam Zhang. We can wait until the child is well again."

Zhang Liuniang nodded. "Thank you, Mr. Shen."

When the carriage arrived at the clinic, Shen Rong asked a doctor to examine the little girl and prescribe medicine.

While waiting for the medicine boy to boil the medicine, Shen Rong gave Zhang Liuniang a silver ingot.

"Mrs. Zhang, please stay in the clinic and take care of your daughter. We have something to do and need to leave for a while. I will come and pick you up later. How about that?"

Zhang Liuniang nodded. "Okay, thank you, Madam Shen."

By the time Shen Rong and the others arrived at Helou, the agreed time had already arrived.

Shen Rong and his wife hurried to the private room they had booked, Room No. 1, carrying a brocade box.

As soon as the two sat down, Zhou Minglang walked in dressed in a white robe.

Shen Rong and Changsheng quickly stood up and bowed to Zhou Minglang.

"Brother Zhou."

"Hello, Lord Zhou."

Zhou Minglang smiled and looked at Changsheng with some surprise, "Brother Changsheng, are you really okay?"

"I was lucky and recovered by chance." Changsheng said generously.

He didn't feel embarrassed about Zhou Minglang's surprise.

He had been stupid for so many years and had been laughed at a lot. Now people were just surprised, so Changsheng gladly accepted it.

Zhou Minglang laughed, "You are indeed lucky."

If he marries a wife with such magical powers, then what else can he do but be lucky?

The three of them smiled and sat down in their seats.

The waiter quickly served the food and wine.

Changsheng poured wine for Zhou Minglang.

The two of them clinked glasses and chatted with each other, making it very lively.

Shen Rong sat on the other side of the screen, listening to Changsheng greeting Zhou Minglang very skillfully. She felt relieved and also a little proud.

Obviously, Changsheng has been able to take charge of himself in such a short time after waking up.

The meal took most of an hour, and since Zhou Minglang had to be on duty in the afternoon, he didn't drink much.

Shen Rong took out the brocade box she had prepared.

"Master Zhou, thanks to your help, my husband and I should have come to visit you, but we are in mourning, so we can only meet you outside. This is a small gift from my husband and I, and I hope you will not refuse."

Zhou Minglang raised his lips slightly, "You are too polite. If it weren't for... to be honest, I would have owed you a favor." Zhou Minglang thought of the situation in Pingyang Marquis's Mansion and changed the subject, "Forget it, now you are also in the capital, so you can visit each other often in the future!"

Having said that, he took the brocade box.

Changsheng smiled and bowed again, "Brother Zhou, please take care of me in the future."

Zhou Minglang didn't expect that the silly Changsheng would react so quickly after his brain recovered.

As soon as he said he wanted to interact with her more often in the future, people took the opportunity to ask him to take care of her.

Zhou Minglang was not angry, after all, his girlfriend still owed him a favor!

If they were still farmers and would never come to the capital in their entire lives, then that wouldn't be a big deal. The one thousand taels of silver would be enough to repay the favor of saving their lives, but who could have made them the sons of a famous impoverished marquisate in the capital?

Zhou Minglang glanced meaningfully at Shen Rong on the other side of the screen.

I guess my cousin won’t just ignore it.

After Zhou Ming left Helou, he immediately returned to the mansion. As soon as he entered the house, he couldn't wait to open the brocade box that Shen Rong gave him.

I saw a plump ginseng inside.

To Zhou Minglang, ginseng was not rare, but no matter how poorly he looked, he could still tell that this ginseng was at least several hundred years old.

Considering that Shen Rong could enter the mountain god's back garden, it wouldn't be difficult for her to get a ginseng from there.

As soon as Mrs. Zhou Er saw her husband come back, he rushed into the house. She hurriedly followed him and saw her husband holding a box in a daze. She leaned over to take a look and immediately exclaimed.

"Where did this ginseng come from?"

Zhou Minglang looked back at his wife, "Can you tell how old this is?"

Mrs. Zhou Er shook her head and nodded again, "I have seen a 500-year-old ginseng in my mother's house, but it was not as big as this one, nor as good as this one."

Zhou Minglang closed the box and handed it to his wife, "Put it away."

Mrs. Zhou Er tugged at Zhou Minglang's sleeve and said, "Who gave you such an expensive gift? I'm afraid the person who gave you this gift is asking for something big."

Zhou Minglang thought about what Changsheng had said at the dinner table just now, and there was nothing he didn't understand.
