"Let me tell you, this is a big customer who has personally discussed cooperation with the shopkeeper. If you make him angry, you will definitely suffer the consequences."
Steward Wang examined the letter for a long time, but without raising any doubts, he said to Situ Yao, "Why does the young master need so many medicinal herbs?"
"Save people." Situ Yao was very frugal with his words.
"Sir, stop joking. If you just want to save people with the medicinal materials in our warehouse, there may be a whole city of people waiting for you to save them." Manager Wang didn't believe what he said.
Su Mengyan curled her lips and said in her heart, you guessed it right, I want to save everyone in Chu City.
Situ Yao was displeased and frowned as he asked, "Are you going to sell it or not?"
"With the owner's personal letter, I will of course hand over the herbs to you, young master." Steward Wang hesitated for a moment and said, "But I have a request."
"explain."
"I have to ensure the daily operation of Tongjitang, so I can't sell all of them to you, young master." Manager Wang estimated for a while. It would take many days to transport the medicinal materials from the north. He couldn't let Tongjitang close down because of a single transaction.
Situ Yao nodded in agreement, and Manager Wang took his men to load the medicinal materials into the truck.
There are only three days left and they can't delay.
So the group just rested for a while in the inn and set off on their journey early the next morning.
Doctor Gu and his team were so happy to see the medicinal materials brought back that they almost cried. Because if it was delayed for a day, many people would not be able to drink the medicine, and all their previous efforts would be in vain.
Su Mengyan was extremely tired after two days of running around. She slept soundly in the yard until she had rested enough, and then she went out of the city with Situ Yao.
After taking the medicine for a few days, many people were almost recovered. Moreover, after Xiaoyaozi modified the prescription, there were no side effects at all, which made them even happier.
The recovered people can go home, and the refugee camp is much emptier than before. Su Mengyan is very happy, "The plague is not invincible."
"Fortunately, the miracle doctor arrived in time, and Doctor Gu was bold in using the medicine, otherwise we would not have found a prescription to solve the plague until now." Su Mengyan said a lot of things, and Situ Yao listened quietly.
After a while, he suddenly asked her, "Are you still leaving?"
Su Mengyan was stunned for a moment before she realized what he was saying.
In fact, since she came to Chu City, she rarely thought about leaving. Because here she didn't have to worry about becoming cannon fodder all day long. Although it was a bit busy, there were not so many rules that restricted her.
Now that Situ Yao asked her suddenly, she didn't know how to answer.
Situ Yao didn't hear her answer, so he lowered his head and asked her, "Or are you still planning on leaving me?"
Even if she had really thought about it in her heart, Su Mengyan didn't dare to nod. Under Situ Yao's cold gaze, she shook her head sincerely and said, "Young Master, you misunderstood. Even if I had the courage, I wouldn't dare to do it."
"That's better." Situ Yao took a half step back with satisfaction, "Otherwise, you know the consequences."
Su Mengyan swallowed and thought to herself, if she really wanted to leave, she had to succeed at once and could not be caught again. Otherwise, if she challenged his bottom line twice in a row, she would probably not survive.
Not long after, Situ Yao became the same as usual, "You don't have to take care of me here, come back to the city with me." The person who threatened her just now seemed to have disappeared.
"I'm going to go see Qing'er." Su Mengyan was worried about Zhao Qing. After a while, she asked, "And Miss Cui, I want to go see her too. Do you want to come with me, sir?"
Situ Yao originally wanted to tell Xiaoyaozi and take her away. However, seeing that Su Mengyan didn't want to leave for the time being, he nodded and said, "Forget it, I'll go with you."
Zhao Qing is feeling better now. He no longer looks tired every day. He talks to Su Mengyan in high spirits.
"I heard the miracle doctor say today that they already have a prescription for the disease. Is this true, Sister Su?"
"It's true." Su Mengyan pinched his chubby cheeks, "You and your father will be able to go home soon."
"What about my mother?" Zhao Qing didn't know anything about his mother yet, so he asked innocently.
Su Mengyan's smile froze on her face, and after a long while she replied, "She's waiting for you to come home, too, so you need to take your medicine and get well soon."
"I heard that you were playing tricks on the miracle doctor again yesterday and didn't want to take the medicine?" Su Mengyan pretended to be serious and pretended to scold him.
Zhao Qing said aggrievedly, "The medicine is too bitter."
"Good medicine tastes bitter. Only by taking it can you get better quickly, understand?" Su Mengyan looked at him and nodded, then smiled and said, "Take good care of yourself. I'll come see you in a few days."
"Yan'er likes children?" Situ Yao did not forget the gentle smile she gave Zhao Qing just now, which she never gave to anyone else.
Su Mengyan nodded and said, "Yes, children are innocent and cute, much simpler than us adults. Who wouldn't like them?"
"Since you like it, why don't you raise one for yourself?" Situ Yao was testing her again.
Su Mengyan didn't notice his strange tone, but said in horror, "Sir, stop joking." She didn't want to be forced to bear a child. Besides, she was of low status, so who would value the child of a concubine? She didn't want her child to suffer in this world.
"Have you ever considered that a mother's status depends on having a child?" Situ Yao snorted coldly. "There are countless women in the palace waiting to get pregnant, hoping to become a phoenix in the blink of an eye."
"I haven't thought about it." Su Mengyan denied it without hesitation, "We've already reached Miss Cui's residence, so there's no need for you to bother testing me anymore."
After being discovered by Su Mengyan, Situ Yao was embarrassed and said unnaturally, "I was just asking you."
Su Mengyan didn't want to argue with him, so she went straight to where Cui Mixue lived, and saw her lying on the bed, dying, looking extremely miserable.
"Why are you so sick?" Su Mengyan asked in surprise, "Didn't you take any medicine?"
Cui Mixue raised her eyes with difficulty and found Su Mengyan, whom she didn't want to see. She sneered, "I'm about to die, are you here to laugh at me?"
Su Mengyan noticed the cold medicinal juice beside her and said impatiently, "Who would think about these useless things all day long? I'll ask someone to make another bowl."
Cui Mixue followed them to Chu City alone. Without a maid to take care of her, she lay here alone. It was estimated that she had not taken any medicine in the past few days, which is why she became like this.
"This medicine can cure the plague, believe it or not." After Su Mengyan said this, she stood far away.
Cui Mixue turned her head and found Situ Yao was there too. Tears suddenly flowed down her face and she almost threw herself on him, "Master, you are finally willing to come and see me."
