Chapter 115: A Happy Event
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Father An’s situation was not as serious as An Xiu’er had claimed. At least his life was not in danger.
His health had always been poor, and he would fall sick when the weather turned cold.
He couldn’t live well, but he couldn’t die either.
Shen Yijia felt that her spiritual liquid could cure him.
After grabbing the medicine, Shen Yijia planned to bring the three members of the An family back to the village. Just as she arrived at the city gate, the carriage was stopped by an acquaintance.
It was the waiter from the Full Fortune Restaurant.
Shen Yijia jumped out of the carriage. Before she could speak, the waiter rushed over. Perhaps because he was too anxious, he forgot the proper etiquette between men and women. He pulled Shen Yijia’s sleeve and brought her to one side so they could speak privately.
Shen Yijia did not care much.
“Miss Shen, I’ve been waiting for you,” the waiter said. As he spoke, he looked around, as if he was afraid that others would see him.
“What’s wrong?” Shen Yijia asked in confusion.
It was unknown if he was cold or nervous, but the waiter’s teeth were chattering. “My shopkeeper asked me to tell you not to come to town for the time being. Someone is looking for you.”
He had been waiting here since early in the morning. Halfway through, he went to the toilet and missed Shen Yijia when she was entering the town.
“Looking for me? Who is it?” Shen Yijia was baffled. Did these people all look for her for fun? They were asking for a beating.
“The shopkeeper didn’t say. He only said that it’s someone we can’t afford to offend. He told you to be careful.” With that, the waiter ran away.
Shen Yijia was confused, but she still took it to heart.
The curtain of the carriage swayed, but Shen Yijia did not care.
She returned to the carriage and drove back to the village.
Shen Yijia sent the An family members home. An Dong happened to come back and thanked her again for what she did. Shen Yijia was impatient, so she quickly nodded and went home.
Due to what had happened with Feng Laoliu, Shen Yijia, who felt that she was not smart enough, told Song Jingchen everything the waiter had said.
Song Jingchen’s eyes darkened and he instructed, “Don’t go to town for the time being. We don’t lack anything at home anyway.”
“Yes, yes.” Shen Yijia nodded hurriedly. She would go the next time she had to trade Shopkeeper Wang.
In the Full Fortune Restaurant, Shopkeeper Wang was also anxious. When he saw the waiter return, he gave him a look to follow him to the backyard before asking, “How was it? Did you meet Miss Shen?”
The waiter explained the situation. Shopkeeper Wang sighed and said in a low voice, “I hope that person will give up after a while.”
“Shopkeeper, who is that person?”
“Don’t ask what you shouldn’t ask. Remember, you didn’t go anywhere today. Otherwise, I won’t be able to protect you. Our entire restaurant will suffer.” Shopkeeper Wang reminded him.
With that, he returned to his office.
There was a joyous occasion in Xiagou Village today. The Song family, who lived at the end of the village, heard the commotion.
There was no need for Shen Yijia and the others to ask around. After noon, the widow brought Bruiser to visit her house.
Now, Bruiser would come over every day to learn how to read. He spent more time here than at home, so he entered Brother Hao’s study room without asking.
Actually, he wanted to stick to Shen Yijia more, but he didn’t have the guts to do so when Song Jingchen was around.
Shen Yijia still found it strange every time. She was clearly the best fighter at home, so why was everyone afraid of Song Jingchen? Even Lin Shao listened to Song Jingchen.
“I thought you were my underling, not his.” she thought to herself.
Shen Yijia wanted to question why her husband, who was clearly such a gentle person, became a monster in their eyes.
