Jing Li never thought that Qin Zhao's thoughts would be so clear.

He once thought that Qin Zhao was indifferent by nature and didn't care about the opinions of outsiders, but the facts proved that was not the case.

He actually sees it more clearly than anyone else.

How many people in this world can truly remain calm in the face of praise or criticism and adapt to other people's situations? If Jing Li had fallen to this point, it would be impossible for him to have no resentment in his heart.

But Qin Zhao did it.

His tolerance is not to keep quiet, nor is it cowardice. Within this frail body, there is a strong mentality and way of dealing with things that others can hardly imagine.

"As for Yan'an..." Qin Zhao's face showed a trace of helplessness, and he said softly, "I only recently found out that this room I live in was originally prepared by the grandmother of the Chen family for him to study."

The little koi suddenly understood.

Chen Yanan is still a teenager after all, and his emotions are all shown on his face.

He rescued Qin Zhao three years ago because he was kind-hearted, but after rescuing him, this man occupied his house and lived there for three years. Anyone would be angry.

But he refused to speak directly and kept everything in his heart, which made his resentment towards Qin Zhao grow stronger and stronger.

This...this is really a misunderstanding.

Qin Zhao said, "I just learned about this not long ago, but I was too ill at the time. Even if I knew, I couldn't move out of that house immediately. And if I explain this to Yan An now, it seems a bit..."

He is so ungrateful after getting the advantage.

Jing Li thought to himself that if it were him, he would probably be even angrier.

Qin Zhao: "I know you can understand. That boy is not a bad person by nature, but he is a bit careless with his words. In the future, you should be patient and give him some leniency."

Jing Li was blowing bubbles under the water, still feeling a little unwilling.

Even if Chen Yanan and the Chen family had done Qin Zhao a favor, that was not a reason for him to speak rudely and insult Qin Zhao.

He is just a fish now, why does he have to think things through so clearly?

It’s not okay to bully Qin Zhao.

The fat boy deserved to be beaten.

Qin Zhao naturally didn't know what he was thinking. He carried Jing Li back home, glanced inside the house, and sighed slowly.

"Now...what should I do?"

.

In the next few days, Qin Zhao also became busy.

When the weather was good during the day, he would go into the mountains to pick some herbs. Fortunately, the medicine boy had promised him a price increase, so the income was considerable. The rest of the time he would continue to organize the books on hand at home.

However, Qin Zhao’s medicine cannot be stopped, so it is still not easy to achieve their goal.

That evening, Qin Zhao sat by the door, sorting and classifying the herbs he had collected in the past few days.

This is a delicate job. First, you have to remove the dirt from the herbs, then pick off the parts that are unusable or damaged when picking, and finally sort them into different categories. Those that can be used directly as medicine are put into one category, and those that need to be dried or baked are put into another category, and then they are tied up with rattan.

Jing Li finally understood why Yao Tong was willing to raise the price for Qin Zhao.

Ordinary farmers would not handle herbs so meticulously. For those mountain farmers, they only need to identify which herbs are needed by the doctor. As for how to handle them after picking them, and which ones can be used and which ones cannot, the medicine boys will sort them out.

This person... really knows a lot.

The sunset glow in the distance was like fire, casting a layer of warm light on Qin Zhao's profile.

Those hands were very beautiful, with long fingers and distinct knuckles. They were obviously not the hands of labor, but they were not as weak as those of ordinary scholars.

Unfortunately, it has lost its color and looks pale and almost transparent.

The small wooden barrel was placed at his feet. Jing Li looked up at him quietly in the water, feeling a little worried.

This person hasn't had a good rest for several days. Can his body take it?

Qin Zhao bundled the last herb and put it in the backpack, then picked up Jing Li and returned to the house. "I'm going to the neighboring village to deliver medicine. I'll feed you when I come back. Be good and wait for me at home."

The little koi fish gently wagged its tail.

The rural doctor from the neighboring village sends his apprentices to collect medicine every two weeks. Now that the time has not come, if he wants to sell the medicine he has to go there in person.
