But she really had no choice.

Liu Yunyun's attitude towards her now can already confirm Shen Yuhan's attitude towards her in the future.

As the mistress of the house, Liu Yunyun is naturally superior to her. When she arrives at the palace in the future, she can bully her at will.

She bit her lower lip hard to prevent herself from crying.

Halfway through the journey, Fang Qingyue suddenly remembered something and asked the driver to change direction.

Her clinic does have a lot of Chinese medicinal herbs, but she needs scar-removing medicine, and she also needs some special herbs.

She needs to go to Zhongcaotang to get medicine.

The carriage slowly swayed along the wide street and arrived at the gate of Zhongcaotang.

After Fang Qingyue stepped into the Zhongcaotang, she went to find Manager Jin to get medicine.

Shopkeeper Jin was also a little curious.

"Your clinic has a wide variety of Chinese medicines. Didn't you prepare various herbs before? Why do you still need to come here to get medicine?"

Fang Qingyue pressed her handkerchief against her lips, with an embarrassed smile on her face.

She had grown plumper these past few days thanks to Shen Yuhan's feedings. Her face was as rosy as a silver plate, and when she looked up at people, she seemed particularly blessed. "After all, the medicines in the clinic can't compare to the variety of medicines in the Chinese Herbal Hall. Could you please let me go in and get the medicine myself?"

Logically speaking, as a customer, Fang Qingyue should not be allowed to enter the counter.

But she was not half of the status, after all. Because of her relationship with Shen Yuhan, Shopkeeper Jin nodded and said: "Miss, you can take any medicine you want. Just think of it as a gift from me, Shopkeeper."

Shen Yuhan will have to pay for this anyway, so he won’t be the one who suffers the loss.

Fang Qingyue didn't feel any pressure and went to the counter to get the medicine.

She picked out two prescriptions for herself, one of which was to be crushed and applied to her belly to prevent the belly from growing bigger due to the fetus and leaving unpleasant scars in the future.

The other one is for relieving nausea and vomiting, and is specially used to suppress the urge to vomit during pregnancy to avoid being discovered by Shen Yuhan.

After getting the two prescriptions, Fang Qingyue said goodbye to Manager Jin and planned to take the medicine back to the car.

Unexpectedly, she had just taken two steps when she was bumped by someone. She couldn't help but fall backwards. She barely held on to the table behind her to prevent herself from falling to the ground.

However, he couldn't keep the two medicines in his hand, they fell to the ground and broke.

The medicines were scattered all over the floor and had been stepped on several times, so it was obvious that they were unusable.

Fang Qingyue couldn't help but frown, looked up at the person who came, and found that it was Liu Yunyun, and she felt a little angry.

Although she intended to avoid him, Liu Yunyun bumped into her again and again, so she didn't believe that Liu Yunyun didn't do it on purpose.

"Miss Liu, we have no grudges in the past or today, what on earth do you want to do?!"

Xiao Tao stood in front of Liu Yunyun and scolded her, "Miss Fang, please be respectful! Who are you, and who are our young lady? How can you scold our young lady?"

She was really angry and spoke very bluntly, which made people feel a little uncomfortable.

Fang Qingyue's eyes were red, but she still said forcefully, "But your young lady destroyed the medicine I just picked up. Doesn't that mean she doesn't have to compensate me?"

"Zhongcaotang is the place where you can run wild?"

When it came to Zhongcaotang, Liu Yunyun actually frowned slightly for a moment.

Zhongcaotang is indeed a special place and is closely related to the royal family.

She really didn't dare to be too presumptuous.

Hearing this, she raised an eyebrow at Xiaotao.

Xiao Tao took out a stack of banknotes and threw them directly at Fang Qingyue's feet: "Miss Fang, I don't think your medicine is anything like thousand-year-old ginseng or ten-thousand-year-old Ganoderma lucidum. These are enough to compensate you."

Even though they said it was compensation, they acted very arrogantly.

"Our Liu family has three dukes for four generations. Even though the master is only a minister of the Ministry of Revenue now, the Liu family's strength cannot be underestimated. Our wife is a well-known wealthy businessman. Her shops occupy almost half of the entire capital. The silver deposited into the treasury every month is like water. We don't need these two cents from you."

She sneered and said, "Miss Fang, don't always try to go against our young lady. You are just the daughter of a criminal. No matter what, you are inferior to our young lady."

Fang Qingyue lowered her eyes and looked at the banknotes scattered on the ground.

Each silver note was worth quite a bit, enough to buy her several prescriptions.

But she knew that Xiaotao was right.

There is a world of difference between her and Liu Yunyun. Liu Yunyun's status is just right for Shen Yuhan.

She can be Shen Yuhan's helper in the court and save Shen Yuhan from the pain of being dismissed from his post. Isn't that a good thing?

Fang Qingyue bent down and picked up the banknotes on the ground.

She tried to straighten her back, but the banknotes were on the ground, so she had to bow her head no matter what.

In addition, my belly has grown a little bigger in the past few days, so my movements are a little clumsy and I look clumsy.

Liu Yunyun couldn't help but let out a delighted laugh, and said with a smile, "You're so stupid, yet you still want to marry Prince Jian'an? I advise you to take a look at yourself in the mirror and see if you're worthy of him."

She watched like a good show as Fang Qingyue struggled to pick up the scattered banknotes on the ground, then she turned around and left leisurely.

Seeing Liu Yunyun and Xiaotao finally leave, Fang Qingyue's eyes became even redder, and the tears that hung on her eyelashes could no longer be held back and finally fell down.

She knew that she was of low status, and although she was heartbroken by the news of Liu Yunyun and Shen Yuhan's engagement, she had never thought of continuing to stay in the Jian'an Palace.

But Liu Yunyun seemed unwilling to give her any chance of survival. Who did she offend in today's incident?

Shopkeeper Jin heard the commotion in the courtyard. When he came out, he saw Fang Qingyue picking up medicine with tears in her eyes.

He frowned tightly and asked, "Miss Fang, what's wrong?"

Fang Qingyue shook her head and wiped the tears from her face with the back of her hand: "I just felt a little sad for a moment when I thought about my father."

Although she knew the relationship between Manager Jin and Shen Yuhan, she was not the kind of person who would complain. She hurriedly took two more prescriptions, left some silver, and then turned and left.

After Fang Qingyue left, Shopkeeper Jin turned around and asked the child who was picking up medicine: "What exactly happened just now?"

The boy was very smart and was indeed Manager Jin's eyes and ears in the Central Thatched Cottage. Upon hearing what was said, he told Manager Jin everything that had just happened.

"Then do you know what medicine Miss Fang picked up just now?" asked Manager Jin.

"There are two prescriptions in total. One should be a medicine for removing greasiness and relieving fatigue, and the other is a medicine for removing scars." The child also understood some pharmacology and could understand the prescriptions.

Shopkeeper Jin was shocked and couldn't help but curse Liu Yunyun in his heart. He wished that Liu Yunyun would never be able to enter his thatched cottage again.

As the owner of Zhongcaotang, he was in charge of the people under Shen Yuhan who were collecting information. He could tell at a glance that Fang Qingyue had a different feeling in Shen Yuhan's heart.

If Liu Yunyun really caused Fang Qingyue to get injured in Zhongcaotang today, Shen Yuhan would probably vent his anger on him too.

Thinking of this, Manager Jin did not dare to delay at all and rushed directly to the Inspectorate.

He must report this matter to Shen Yuhan as soon as possible!
