"Have a safe journey, Uncle Fan."

Fan Xiaofeng's anxious shadow slowly disappeared. Shen Hongmei couldn't help laughing as she looked at his back.

"Look, with Old Fan here, our family feels like they have a backer." Shen Hongmei felt that since Fan Xiaofeng came, their family was indeed much better off than before. Just like when paying the public grain, as long as she got Fan Xiaofeng's favor, the third-grade grain would become second-grade grain, and a hundred kilograms of grain would only be reduced by twenty kilograms, otherwise it would be reduced by thirty kilograms.

Moreover, Shen Hongmei felt that Fan Xiaofeng would definitely become the next village chief. By then, the blessings he would receive would become greater and greater. And there was Fan Zhiqiang. Although this child was naughty, he was still quite obedient. It was a great thing that he could be friends with the Fan family.

Yan Shuhua just chuckled. A backer? In this world, if you rely on a mountain, it will fall down. If you rely on a person, they will run away. The best thing to do is to rely on yourself. Therefore, Yan Shuhua never expected to rely on anyone.

Shen Hongmei naturally understood Yan Shuhua's thoughts. Yes, her daughter never relied on anyone.

Yan Shuhua cooked a meal and took one to Li's mother's house. Ever since Li's sister passed away, Li's mother had been extremely disappointed and no longer had the same energy as before. Yan Shuhua no longer dared to cook sweet potatoes for her, for fear that she would be reminded of her father when she saw the sweet potatoes.

After cleaning up the messy house, Li's mother suddenly grabbed her hand and handed something to her. Yan Shuhua was wondering what she was putting in her hand when she heard Li's mother say, "Shuhua, this is the prescription left by Li Mei's father before he died. I think it may be useful to you. Please accept it."

"Auntie, no." When Yan Shuhua heard that it was such a precious thing, she was of course unwilling to accept it. This was the great treasure of the Li family, how could she give it to her? If she accepted it, it would be like a hot potato.

Li's mother insisted on giving her the prescription. Seeing that she was unwilling to accept it, she became a little unhappy and deliberately said angrily: "Didn't you say that you treat me as your biological mother? Then I will treat you as my biological daughter. Now I give the things to my daughter, don't you think my daughter doesn't want to take them?"

When Yan Shuhua heard what Li's mother said, she felt that if she did not accept it, Li's mother might not know how disappointed she was, so she took the prescription. She casually flipped through two pages and saw many prescriptions she had never seen before. She thought that this prescription would definitely help her learn more knowledge in the future.

"Originally, his father said before he died that he must leave this book to Li Mei, but now that Li Mei has encountered such an incident..." Li's mother wiped her tears and said, "Forget it, Shuhua, I'll give it to you."

Whenever Li's mother mentioned Li Mei, she would think of too many things. She always ate alone, and the house was cold and quiet. She could no longer hear Li Mei's voice. And when she thought that she had raised her from childhood to this age, and now she was gone, she felt very sad.

In order not to make her sad, Yan Shuhua stopped talking.

This book of prescriptions records so many useful things that even Yan Shuhua likes it very much. However, many copies of the book are rotten. It seems that she has to buy a new book and copy down these prescriptions, otherwise they will be useless if they are damaged.

Mother Li suddenly grabbed her hand and said in a serious tone: "Shuhua, Auntie, I have nothing in this life. My husband died early, and my daughter also died... I am just living to find the murderer! Can you understand, Shuhua?"

Mother Li felt that she could not live any longer. If it were not for finding the murderer, she would have died with Li Mei long ago. She was truly heartbroken, and her lips began to tremble violently again because of grief.

"Auntie, of course I understand!" Yan Shuhua patted her hands, "Auntie, you should treat me as your daughter from now on."

Mother Li's eyes were filled with tears, and she nodded and said, "Okay."

Yan Shuhua suddenly felt something was wrong, because he thought of the watch, so he asked Li's mother if she had seen the watch.

Li's mother said that Li Mei would wear it every time she went out to collect herbs. Yan Shuhua and Li's mother began to search through all the boxes and cabinets, but they couldn't find the watch. Thinking of the day when Li Mei got into trouble, there was no watch! Yan Shuhua was suspicious, could it be that the watch was taken away by the person who killed her? If this is really the case, then we need to find a breakthrough.

"Shuhua, what's wrong?" Mother Li couldn't help but ask Yan Shuhua when she saw that she had been talking fine but suddenly became silent.

"It's okay, Auntie." Yan Shuhua immediately changed his words and said, "Look at my memory. I forgot that Sister Li had already given me that watch two days ago."

"So that's how it is." Mother Li said weakly, because all her thoughts were not on the watch at the moment, and she had no idea what Yan Shuhua was thinking.

"Auntie, I'm leaving now. I'll come over and spend more time with you when I'm free."

Li's mother nodded, and Yan Shuhua left, full of doubts, thinking that if the man took the watch, he would definitely sell the watch if he was a gambler, but if he was not a gambler, he must have hidden the watch.

This is too difficult to investigate, but she has to try her best to find the murderer.

Yan Shuhua had already discovered several businesses when she went to the provincial capital every day, but in this era, they didn't dare to make it public. However, she felt that it would be easier for her to investigate this way, because many people did not buy or sell things, so the things would not be sold so quickly.

Yan Shuhua was about to leave the city when he suddenly saw Xiao Jinchu coming on a bicycle. He was surprised: "Jinchu, why are you here too, and on a bicycle?"

Xiao Jinchu was wearing a suit of royal green today, looking very majestic. He was also riding Li Pingshu's Phoenix brand bicycle, which made him very attractive.

Xiao Jinchu's legs were very long, so he didn't need to get off the bike like others did. He could just sit on the cushion and hold the bike. "If you said you were going to town, why didn't you tell me? I can ride my bike and take you there."

When Yan Shuhua heard that he actually wanted to take her to the town by bicycle, she was a little bit unbelieving. Besides, she was also worried about Xiao Jinchu's legs, so after thinking about it, she decided not to go by bicycle, and just take a car together.

Xiao Jinchu felt that what Yan Shuhua said was indeed correct, so he took the bicycle back and returned it to Li Pingshu.
