Chapter 77 Escort
Wu Qiang raised his head and begged for mercy: "Sister Qianhuan, I beg you to let me go. As long as you let me go, you can ask me to do anything."
"Don't call me Sister Qianhuan. I'm not your sister. And you are not allowed to call me by my name. You don't deserve it." Qianhuan felt sick when she heard him calling her Sister Qianhuan.
"Yes, yes, I won't scream anymore. Can I call you aunt?" Wu Qiang's face was full of desire to survive. At this moment, he was like a fish on the chopping board, who could be slaughtered at will. In order to stay alive, he could not care about anything else.
"As long as I let you go, are you really willing to listen to me?"
"Yes, as long as you let me go, I will do anything." Wu Qiang looked confident.
"Okay, I'll give you a chance. From today on, you have to keep an eye on Cuihua's every move. I want you to find her handle and tell me. If you can't find it within three months, your head will be moved." Qianhuan's eyes flashed fiercely and she made a gesture of wiping her neck.
Wu Qiang touched his neck with his hand, nodded and agreed quickly: "Boss, don't worry, I will find it out. I will find it out within three months and tell you Cuihua's handle."
"You'd better keep your word. This Mr. Cai is my recognized elder brother. I believe you have heard of Mr. Cai's name. If you dare not keep your word, my elder brother will never let you off easily."
Young Master Cai knew that Miss Liang wanted to use her power to intimidate this gangster, so he cooperated and glared at Wu Qiang with murderous eyes.
Wu Qiang couldn't help but shudder all over. He was almost scared to the point of peeing his pants. He quickly assured her, "Don't worry, Auntie. I will definitely complete the task."
"Since you are talking so nicely, in order to show your loyalty, then you should eat this poisonous weed."
Qianhuan was holding an unknown grass in her hand, which she had already rubbed into a ball.
"Poisonous weeds? No, I don't want that. I don't want to die yet. If I die, how can I find something to hold against Cuihua for you?" When Wu Qiang heard that he was going to be fed poisonous weeds, he immediately shook his head.
"Don't worry, this poisonous grass won't kill you immediately after you eat it. This grass is called March Heartbreak Grass. Although it is extremely poisonous, it can be cured by taking the antidote within three months. If there is no antidote after three months, you will bleed to death. As long as you find evidence of Cuihua within three months, I will give you the antidote."
"Auntie, I don't need to eat this heartbreak grass. I swear I will complete the task. If I can't do it, let the thunder god strike me to death."
Wu Qiang swore a poisonous oath while struggling backwards on the ground. He didn't want to eat any poisonous grass, and he didn't want to die with blood coming out of all his orifices.
"You have to eat it. If you don't eat it, how can I know if you will do things for me obediently?"
"No, I don't want to eat poisonous weeds... Aunt, please forgive me."
"It's not up to you!"
Qianhuan gave Mr. Cai a wink, and Mr. Cai immediately bent down, pinched Wu Qiang's chin, and forced his mouth open.
Qianhuan threw the grass into Wu Qiang's mouth. Cai Xiaoye forced his mouth shut. Wu Qiang was still struggling to spit out the poisonous grass.
Qianhuan said ruthlessly, "If you dare to spit it out, I will ask Brother Cai to send you to hell. This is a remote place, and your body will be thrown to the wolves and tigers on the mountain for lunch."
Upon hearing this, Wu Qiang immediately gave up struggling. He could only swallow the strange-tasting poisonous grass in tears.
Wu Qiang thought, since this poisonous weed will be fine within three months, he can go to the clinic and ask the doctor to help detoxify it, and then she will be unable to do anything to him.
But Qianhuan seemed to see through his thoughts. She warned him, "Remember, don't try to play any tricks. I'm the only one who has the antidote. After you eat this poisonous grass, even the doctor won't be able to feel your pulse, let alone prepare an antidote."
When Wu Qiang heard this, his face turned bitter. There wasn't even an antidote available, so it seemed that he had no choice but to obey.
"Since you have already eaten the poisonous grass, get out of here right away. Don't play any tricks, otherwise, I will make sure that no trace of your body will be left." Qianhuan added viciously.
"Yes, yes, auntie, I'll leave right away."
When he heard that he could leave, Wu Qiang finally breathed a sigh of relief. This Liang Qianhuan was really scary, even scarier than that vicious woman like Cuihua.
But he was lying on the ground with his hands and feet tied, and he couldn't stand up at all.
He trembled and said, "Auntie, can you untie me first? My hands and feet are tied and I can't move."
Young Master Cai walked up to him and untied him, and Wu Qiang ran away holding the wrinkled clothes.
After Wu Qiang left, Master Cai looked at Qian Huan with curiosity and asked, "Is that March Heartbreak Grass really a poisonous weed? Can it really make people bleed from all seven orifices and die if they don't take the antidote within three months?"
"I lied to him. I just pulled a piece of unknown grass from the mountain. I just wanted to scare him. Otherwise, how could he be so obedient?"
Young Master Cai couldn't help but want to laugh. What a cunning little girl.
He looked at Qianhuan again and asked with concern, "Miss Liang, why are you on this road alone? Aren't you going to the county town to set up a stall today?"
"Well, I'm not going to set up a stall today. I have guests at home, and I was planning to go to town to buy some things, but who knew that bastard would follow me. Master Cai, why are you around here too?"
"I live nearby. I was just about to leave for the city when I heard your shouting. Fortunately, I heard it, otherwise I can't imagine the consequences."
Young Master Cai also looked relieved. Fortunately, he stopped it in time, otherwise such a delicate girl would have been ruined.
"Yes, thank you so much. I will definitely treat you to a good meal someday to thank you for saving my life."
Qianhuan once again expressed her gratitude for his help.
"You're welcome. Hey, your leg seems to be bleeding. Can you still walk?"
Qianhuan then remembered that her leg was injured. She was so frightened just now that she didn't even feel the pain. Only when he reminded her did she feel the pain.
"It's just a little painful, but it shouldn't affect my walking."
Qianhuan tried to walk a few steps, it was painful, but she could still bear it. Otherwise, she couldn't let a grown man like Cai carry her on his back. Although as a modern person, she thought it was okay to let a man carry her, this was ancient times, and she was afraid that others would gossip about it.
Qianhuan's hair had all spread out while she was running, so she grabbed her hair with her hands and began to tie it up again. She lowered her head and straightened her messy clothes. She didn't want her parents to notice anything when she got home.
Young Master Cai saw her fixing her hair and clothes in front of him, and quickly turned away with a red face. He thought to himself: How come this Miss Liang doesn't know how to avoid suspicion? He is a grown man after all, how can he tie up his hair and fix his clothes in front of me?
In order to hide his embarrassment, Master Cai turned his back and pretended to be nonchalant and asked, "Miss Liang, do you still want to go to town to buy things now?"
"Well, those things must be bought and brought home. I still have to continue going to town."
"Then I'll escort you there. There are few people on this mountain road, and I'm really worried about you, a little girl."
"Thank you so much. I was almost scared to death just now. Now I really don't dare to walk this road alone."
Qianhuan spoke her true feelings at this time. Although she came from a time travel, she did not possess any unique martial arts. She was just an ordinary person. If she met a bad guy, she would have no ability to protect herself.
Young Master Cai couldn't help but sigh that women change their faces very quickly. She had a ruthless look on her face when she kicked the bad guy just now, but now she looked like a weak little woman.
Under the escort of Mr. Cai, Qianhuan arrived in the town smoothly. Mr. Cai accompanied her to various stores to buy things along the way.
She went to the cloth shop first, which sold not only cloth but also cotton.
Qianhuan wanted to make three quilts, one for the guest room, one for her parents, and one for herself. The quilts she and her parents used on their beds were old quilts given by the people in the old house when the family split up, and they were not very warm at all.
It takes at least five kilograms of cotton to make a winter quilt, and three quilts would require fifteen kilograms. She also bought a piece of sky blue coarse cloth specifically for sewing quilts.
Qianhuan paid the money and Mr. Cai took the initiative to help carry the things. He followed Qianhuan out of the store with cotton in one hand and cloth in the other.
If Cai Xiaoye's younger brothers saw this, they would definitely think that this scene was too bizarre. He was a gangster boss, but he was actually accompanying people shopping and working as a laborer to carry things for them.
