Qin Yulong was indeed curious. He always took good care of capable juniors, promoting those who could be promoted and training those who could be trained. These connections would become valuable in the future. Of course, ability was the foundation.
Qin Yulong was interested in finding out about Hua Shancheng's young apprentice, and Hua Shancheng was also interested in connecting Su Xiao with someone so that her future path would be smoother.
He's getting old, and he doesn't know what tomorrow will bring. When an opportunity comes, he naturally wants to seize it and do everything he can.
Su Xiao and Huang Feiyan returned home, ate dinner, and then got back to work, their sewing machines clanging loudly.
Hearing the knocking was quite unexpected, since they had very few acquaintances here, and this was the first time someone had come knocking on their door so late at night.
"Here you are." Su Xiao went to open the door and was surprised to see Hua Shancheng. "Master, what brings you here? Please come in."
Su Xiao quickly opened the door and let the person in. Then, she saw that Hua Shancheng was followed by another person.
“Xiaoxiao, this is Uncle Qin,” Hua Shancheng introduced them. “This is my little apprentice, Su Xiaoxiao.”
"Uncle Qin, please come in quickly," Su Xiao hurriedly called out.
"Xiao Xiao." Qin Yulong's gaze lingered on Su Xiao's face, unable to look away, a hint of doubt and excitement flashing in his eyes.
But decades of political experience have given him enough patience and composure to remain calm. His smile is warm and friendly. "Xiao Xiao? You're young and promising. Your master has been praising you to the skies all along."
"I am but a humble person, and I owe my success today entirely to the guidance of my master," Su Xiao said modestly.
"Alright, stop being modest." Hua Shancheng quickly interrupted the two of them and said to Su Xiao, "Do you have any herbs at home that can promote blood circulation, remove blood stasis, reduce inflammation, and relieve pain? Take them all and come with me on a house call."
"Huh? Oh." Startled by his sudden change of topic, Su Xiao quickly adjusted her tone and asked, "What kind of injury is it? Is it serious?"
"He twisted his ankle, and it's swollen higher than a steamed bun. It looks pretty serious to me, but I don't know if the bone is broken." Qin Yulong described the old man's foot injury in much more detail than he had just told Hua Shancheng.
"I understand. Wait here for me." Su Xiao knew what to do and immediately went back to her room to get the medicine.
Hua Shancheng knew that Su Xiao had medicine because he knew that Su Xiao had recently been researching the production of health-preserving and qi-tonifying pills.
Yes, it's about the inheritance of the pharmacopoeia again.
Sure enough, a short while later, Su Xiao came out carrying a large bag.
He told Huang Feiyan to lock the door when she was home alone.
The car quickly brought the people to the Qin family compound.
Su Xiao obediently followed her master inside, step by step.
"Old Hua, thank you for troubling me again." Old Qin sat in the middle of the sofa, his injured foot dangling on the coffee table. To his left was Old Madam Qin, and to his right was Qin Yumei. Everything was arranged perfectly.
"No trouble at all, Xiaoxiao, come and call someone, and let your Grandpa Qin take a look at your foot injury." Hua Shancheng was always looking for internship opportunities for Su Xiao, and he didn't even let go of the powerful Grandpa Qin.
"Okay." Su Xiao responded, stepped forward, and politely said, "Grandpa Qin, Grandma Qin, Aunt Qin."
But no one responded to her; all their eyes were on her face.
"You, you..." Qin Yumei was the most agitated, standing up and pointing at her, her fingers trembling.
"Hmm?" Su Xiao looked at them curiously and with a puzzled expression.
"Yu Mei, don't frighten the child, sit down quickly." Old Master Qin spoke with unusual emphasis.
