Evil Doctor Princess - Chapter 6
Chapter 006 It’s Not Good to Delay Wages
“Young miss, young miss! Something bad has happened!”
Lizi ran in panicking and said to Bai Junzhuo, “Little … Miss, there’s a large group of people coming to Yong Ci Hall and shouting for the Bai Clan to repay their wages … and they even said that they won’t repay … and then set the Yong Ci Hall on fire!”
When Bai Junzhuo heard this, he slapped the table and stood up. He didn’t care about the injuries on his body and was about to leave.
If she wanted to survive, her only bargaining chip was the Yong Ci Hall that the Bai Clan had inherited for a hundred years. After burning down the Medicine Hall, how would she continue to mess around?
“Miss! Miss! Wait for me!” Seeing Bai Junzhuo leave in such a rage, Lizi hurriedly followed suit.
It was early summer, and the wind was warm and sunny. There were a lot of people passing by on the streets. Many of them knew her, Bai Junzhuo, the daughter of the first big family in Luoyang. They also knew a little about the recent events in the Bai Clan.
When they saw Bai Junzhuo rush out of the Bai Manor, they all consciously made way for her. There were sympathetic and gloating expressions in their eyes.
Bai Junzhuo didn’t care either. After turning two blocks, he arrived at the medicine hall where there was a disturbance. At that time, a large group of men armed with weapons were fighting with the few employees guarding the medicine hall.
Bai Junzhuo’s eyes swept over this group of people. He was a sincere official with a swinging board. Now that the Bai Clan had fallen into trouble, only one tenth of the people who could stay and share the tribulation with the Bai Clan were able to do so.
“Miss! Miss is here!” Someone noticed Bai Junzhuo and shouted. Both sides turned their gazes to Bai Junzhuo.
Liu Shun, the shopkeeper of the Medicine Hall, greeted Bai Junzhuo with a worried expression, “Miss, you’re not well yet. You can’t come out …”
Before Bai Junzhuo could express anything, the troublemakers shouted, “Since Miss Bai has come, then return the money that the Bai family owed us!”
“Everyone, Madam has taken all the money from the Bai Clan. Please forgive me for two days.” Liu Shun bowed and pleaded with these people.
“We’re good? Why aren’t you good? Which one of our families doesn’t have a wife and children? The Bai family deducts their monthly wages. How are we supposed to support our families?”
“But before, it was Madam who covered the sky with her hands. It has nothing to do with Miss. Now that Miss is in charge of the Bai Clan, she will definitely treat you well!” Lizi also spoke up to defend Bai Junzhuo.
“Hmph, treat us well? Give us back the money first, then treat us well!”
“But we really don’t have any money right now …”
“No money? Brothers, let’s empty this medicine hall. If we can’t, we’ll smash it!”
After saying that, they rushed forward, and the staff who were guarding the medicine hall were outnumbered, and some of them were even beaten to the point that their heads were bloodshot.
Bai Jun was anxious and shouted, “Stop fighting!”
Her voice hadn’t recovered yet, but now she forced herself to speak, tearing her throat apart. Her voice wasn’t as gentle as usual, but hoarse and gloomy as a broken gong.
However, it was precisely this voice that stunned the troublemakers. They all turned to look at Bai Junzhuo.
Bai Junzhuo opened his mouth, wanting to say something else, but he was unable to say anything.
Liu Shun burst into tears and said to those people, “Why don’t you think about it? When you entered the Bai Clan, all of you were poor. If it weren’t for Miracle Doctor Bai’s benevolence to save you, would you be able to live to this day? Now that Miracle Doctor Bai was murdered by an adulterer, you would have come to make things difficult for Miracle Doctor Bai’s direct daughter. Do you still have humanity?”
The group of people listened and looked at each other. They looked at Bai Junzhuo, who was indeed pitiful and innocent. After a moment of silence, the person leading the way said to Bai Junzhuo, “We should extend the time limit for a few days before Miracle Doctor Bai, but it is only natural that we should repay our debts. Miss Bai should raise the money as soon as possible!”
After those people finished speaking, they packed their things and left.
Bai Junzhuo looked at their departing figures and secretly clenched his fists.
