Chapter 172 - 171: I, a Wanted Criminal?
Qin Liuxi gave Uncle Li acupuncture and wrote him a prescription before taking out the silver for the wontons and placing it down.
"You see, you’re being a stranger to Uncle Li now. You gave me acupuncture and even a prescription; I haven’t paid a penny for the consultation fee, and yet you’re paying for this meal. Should I also pay you the consultation fee then?" Uncle Li firmly refused and said, "Old man like me understands cause and effect; in the past, it was fine when you paid, but now you still pay, so I also must pay the consultation fee."
Qin Liuxi smiled and said, "I knew you would say that, so what I paid was on behalf of my friend."
She put down ten coins and said, "It’s not easy to run a small business; I can’t let you suffer a loss."
Yu Changkong, listening to the word ’friend’, glanced sideways at her.
It was then that Uncle Li picked up the ten coins, placed them in the cash basket, and said, "Alright, then this old man will accept it."
Qin Liuxi nodded and said, "Then I’ll be going, I’ll come back another time."
"Alright, do come by often."
Yu Changkong left the stall with her and said, "You’re quite familiar with them."
"Yes, I’ve been a long-standing customer. I’ve been eating here since I was little, how can I not be familiar?" Qin Liuxi said, "That girl called Juan’er, when I first saw her, she wasn’t even able to speak properly, and in the blink of an eye, she’s already grown into a young lady."
"Your words sound rather old-fashioned." Yu Changkong couldn’t help but smile, "I heard Uncle Li calling you Young Master Qin, and even Miss Li calls you Mr. Qin; don’t they know you’re the Master Buqiu from the Daoist Temple?"
