Chapter 164: True and False Repayment

"This..." Jiang Huan looked at the shopkeeper with an awkward look, as if he was unresolved. Seeing Jiang Huan taking a breath, the shopkeeper thought to himself.

If Jiang Huan was dragging on, he would probably have woken up.

Thinking of this, he sighed.

"I also understand the concerns of the young master. If the young master standing next to you is convenient, it would be okay to go with you." said the shopkeeper.

What the shopkeeper said coincided with Jiang Huan's idea. When he heard what the shopkeeper said, Jiang Huan glanced at Canyang and said, "Let's go."

"No." Canyang said.

As for the person who was drunk in the house, let them continue to be drunk. He is not familiar with them, right?

The shopkeeper brought Jiang Huan and the others to the Yijia room and closed the door. Seeing the shopkeeper like this, Jiang Huan frowned even more and more. He sternly said: "What the hell are you going to do?"

The shopkeeper was slightly stunned when he heard this, and then he suddenly knelt down.

The shopkeeper's actions were not only Canyang, but also Jiang Huan was stunned. He said unhappily: "What are you doing?"

The shopkeeper bowed: "Subordinate Jiuyan, pay homage to the master."

Jiang Huan frowned slightly when he heard this, and then said sternly: "My subordinates have always only four people from Canyang. Are you considered my subordinates?"

Jiuyan was not annoyed when he was scolded by Jiang Huan, but said respectfully: "I am from Sucheng, Shuzhou. I fled to Liangzhou because of a severe drought in my hometown. Who would think that Liangzhou also had a flood and was very devastated around me, so my subordinates wandered on the streets." Jiuyan Min raised her lips and said again: "At that time, there were many victims, and everyone was unable to take care of themselves. Where would anyone care about the life and death of this foreigner? Just when the subordinate was hungry, the young master appeared." At this point, a faint sadness turned into a corner of Jiuyan's mouth. "The young master handed Jiuyan a cake, and asked another young master beside you to give me a kettle. If it weren't for the young master's cake, Jiuyan would have starved to death on the street."

Jiang Huan closed his eyes as he listened to Jiuyan's affectionate words.

Jiang Huan searched for the origin of this Jiuyan in his memory, but he just couldn't remember when he had saved such a person.

Jiang Huan couldn't remember who the man who claimed to be Jiuyan was right. After all, Jiuyan was not the one who saved Jiang Huan at all! He was just a chess piece placed by someone else next to Jiang Huan. However, this "chess piece" did not have bad intentions towards Jiang Huan. After all, he was sent by the "one above" to help Jiang Huan.

The more Jiang Huan thought about it, the more he felt something was wrong. His knuckles gently clasped on the table and looked at Jiuyan with a suspicion: "So, how did you come to the capital? How could you become the shopkeeper of Juxianlou?"

Jiuyan said: "I wanted to repay the young master's life-saving grace, but at that time the young master did not reveal his name or address. I had no success in searching for it, so I had to give up. Later, I learned from others that my master had returned to Beijing, so I took the initiative to come to Kyoto to find you. But Kyoto is so big that I can't find anyone for a while. At that time, when Juxianlou was recruiting a friend, my subordinates came here to work."

"What then?" Jiang Huan said.

"The shopkeeper of Juxianlou was seriously ill, but because he had no children, no one took care of him. The subordinate couldn't bear it, so he took care of him personally. Later, the shopkeeper recovered and passed the position to his subordinates."

What Jiuyan said was flawless, which made Jiang Huan, who had originally suspected Jiuyan's identity, unable to understand whether he was lying.

Could it be that this Jiuyan is really here to repay her kindness?

Guess who this Jiuyan is
