Chapter 118 Sister is looking after you
Upon hearing this, Su Qing followed suit, saying, "I'll do the same as you."
Lu Zijing patted her chest and said, "Brother Jiang, I'll follow your example too."
"Then thank you in advance," Jiang Mubai said, both amused and exasperated. Although she felt warm inside, she couldn't help but be teased by them.
After speaking to the group, Jiang Mubai got back to the main topic, "I've also discussed the matter of compensating you with Grandpa and the others, Dr. Lin."
Lin Shu stopped and looked at him.
“They told me not to neglect you, but I couldn’t find anything you liked, so I took it upon myself to take you to the storeroom to choose by yourself. What do you think?” Jiang Mubai said.
After listening to Jiang Mubai's words, Lin Shu gave him a look that said, "You're quite perceptive."
“That’s right. As one of your few friends, I know you quite well,” Jiang Mubai said with a smug look.
Lin Shu rolled her eyes. She noticed that this kid was starting to get itchy, but her heart was still warm. "Then what are we waiting for? Let's go."
The four men and one tiger immediately headed towards Jiang Mubai's storeroom.
Remembering his grandfathers' instructions, Jiang Mubai hesitated for a moment before glancing at Lin Shu, "By the way, my grandfathers would like to ask you for a favor."
"Sure, if you give me a lot of money," Lin Shu had no grudge against money.
As long as the money is in place, everything is negotiable.
Jiang Mubai smiled.
"Don't worry, there's not much else in Divine Doctor Valley, but there's definitely enough silver."
"What kind of help do those old men want from my Lin Shu? We've already done more than enough by not holding them accountable," Su Qing, who followed behind, asked with dissatisfaction.
At this point, Jiang Mubai's expression visibly darkened. "I'll tell you later."
Seeing that Jiang Mubai's expression was off, Su Qing didn't ask any more questions, but secretly pondered the possibilities.
The group continued on their way and soon arrived at the storeroom of the Divine Doctor Valley.
The Divine Doctor Valley warehouse is located at the deepest part of the Divine Doctor Valley. Lin Shuhui originally thought it was heavily guarded, but when they arrived, they found that there were only a few people there, and they were even dozing off.
This shows how indifferent she is to what she values.
That's outrageously extravagant!
Jiang Mubai led the group through a series of doors, finally arriving at a carved gate.
He gently pushed open the door, and a faint fragrance of sandalwood wafted out, revealing a dazzling array of treasures and ancient books.
“You can choose whatever you like here, consider it compensation from the Divine Doctor Valley,” Jiang Mubai said generously.
When Lin Shu saw the warehouse filled with gold and silver jewelry, his bright eyes shone even brighter.
If she weren't trying to maintain her public image, her eyes would probably be blazing with fury.
"This... is so much."
"Yes, these are all gifts from people who have sought medical help from Divine Doctor Valley over the years. For us, apart from those ancient medical books, these valuables are not of much use. After all, what we value is the medical skills and the inheritance," Jiang Mubai explained, with a hint of pride in his voice.
"Hmm, this tradition is quite good," so even if she took all the gold and silver jewelry, they wouldn't feel bad.
Even the well-informed Su Qing couldn't help but exclaim in amazement upon seeing the storeroom overflowing with gold and silver treasures, "Jiang Mubai, your Divine Doctor Valley is truly a place of immense wealth and power!"
Jiang Mubai did not deny this.
He turned to look at Lin Shu, who was deep in thought. "Have you made a choice?"
Lin Shu took a deep breath, his bright eyes shining as he stared at Jiang Mubai, his tone filled with undisguised greed, "If I said that I like all the gold and silver jewelry inside, but not the medical books and ancient texts, what would you do?"
Jiang Mubai had never seen Lin Shu like this before, and he stood there stunned.
"Hey, why aren't you saying anything?" Lin Shu was disappointed when he saw that he was not speaking and thought that he was frightened by his greed.
Jiang Mubai snapped out of his daze at Lin Shu's voice and coughed awkwardly, "If you like it, take it. These things have been sitting here for years and nobody wants them."
Before Lin Shu could even feel happy, he heard Su Qing's voice pouring cold water on him, "So what if I give it to you? Can you even take it with you?"
Her question not only revealed her true feelings, but also drew criticism from Lin Shu.
Jiang Mubai and Su Qing both looked at Lin Shu in unison.
Lin Shu's lips twitched almost imperceptibly.
Just as she was thinking about how to explain, Lu Zijing spoke first, "What are you afraid of? We have Tiger Mom. She's so big, she can carry us."
Upon hearing this, Lin Shu immediately hugged Lu Zijin and kissed him passionately, "Oh my good son, you've solved a world problem for your mother!"
After saying that, he turned to look at Jiang Mubai, "Did you hear that? Then please pack them all up and send them to our yard."
“Okay,” Jiang Mubai replied readily. The more Lin Shu took now, the harder it would be to refuse his help later.
Even Su Qing understands this principle, but Lin Shu is still obsessed with money.
No matter how much Su Qing tried to prompt him with her eyes, Lin Shu simply wouldn't look at her.
After Jiang Mubai and his men packed everything up, Su Qing had nothing to say.
The group returned to the courtyard with several large boxes of gold and silver jewelry. Before they even entered the gate, they were stopped by a middle-aged man in his forties and his men.
If it weren't for the grinning Jiang Muqi standing beside him, Lin Shu would have almost forgotten about this person.
Seeing that his second uncle had come with ill intentions, Jiang Mubai immediately stepped forward to protect Lin Shu and the others behind him. "Second Uncle, they are friends I brought back. Please, for my sake, don't make a big fuss."
"Hmph, but your friend hurt my son, Mu Bai. Have you forgotten who's in charge of Divine Doctor Valley after being away for so long?" Jiang Qinglang arrogantly rebuked Jiang Mu Bai.
Faced with Jiang Qinglang's unreasonable arrogance, Jiang Mubai's fists, hanging by his sides, cracked.
He was about to say something when Lin Shu gently pulled him behind her and slowly stepped forward.
His calm gaze held a tranquil surface, but a closer look revealed a turbulent undercurrent within.
No wonder people often say that behind every naughty child is a naughty parent; it turns out they spoil them.
She raised her eyes to look at Jiang Qinglang, "Second Uncle Jiang, have you asked your son what he did and why we beat him?"
Upon hearing this, Jiang Muqi immediately defended herself, "Dad, I just felt sorry for them and wanted to give them some good food. Who knew it would cause them to be unhappy and even break my arm?"
"It's all because of that little bastard Jiang Mubai. If he hadn't brought so many people back to the Divine Doctor Valley, none of this would have happened."
"A person should have a conscience. Swear on your conscience, is what you said true?" Su Qing said with a displeased look.
Do they really think they're dead? Not only do they bully Jiang Mubai, but they also try to portray him as innocent while simultaneously trying to smear him.
