"Huh? Ah Li? Uncle Mu, Brother Shen? Why are you back together?"
Jiang Li went out with Mu Hong, so why was he with Shen Qiwen when he came back?
"We happened to meet Brother Shen on the way home, so we came back together."
When saying this, Jiang Li's eyes fell on Jiang Wan. Seeing that there was nothing wrong with her expression, he slowly withdrew his gaze.
"Sister, these people are..."
Also, isn’t my mother at home?
Jiang Li looked around but didn't see Su Yun, and he couldn't help but feel confused.
Looking at his expression, Jiang Wan knew what he was thinking.
"This is Doctor Qin and Manager Chen from Huichuntang. They came to see me today about something."
"Mother went to the fields at the foot of the mountain today and is with Father."
After finally getting out for a walk, Su Yun always had to take some deep breaths of fresh air. She had been recuperating at home for some time and was feeling bored.
"oh."
Jiang Li nodded, but... his eyes fell on Old Qin and Shopkeeper Chen.
"Shopkeeper Chen, Mr. Qin."
"Uncle Chen, Elder Qin, this is my eldest brother."
Jiang Wan introduced them, "That's Uncle Mu and Shen Qiwen."
They greeted each other, and then... Shopkeeper Chen's eyes were always on Shen Qiwen. After a while, a car suddenly appeared in front of him.
“Mr. Shen?”
Hearing his address, Jiang Wan was stunned. "Uncle Chen, do you know Brother Shen?"
"It's not that I know you, I've met you once before, but I don't know if Mr. Shen still remembers me?"
Shen Qiwen looked at him and nodded slightly, "Shopkeeper Chen."
Shopkeeper Chen's heart did not calm down for a long time. He turned his head to look at Jiang Wan, and saw her walk in front of Shen Qiwen and speak familiarly.
"Brother Shen, I'm stewing soup in the kitchen. Can you go over and take a look for me?"
Shen Qiwen nodded, turned around and greeted a few people, then went to the kitchen without turning around.
Shopkeeper Chen looked confused “This…Jiang girl, are you familiar with Master Shen?”
"Um?"
Jiang Wan subconsciously looked up. "Brother Shen saved me and my father before. To repay him, I invited him to our house for dinner. We became familiar with each other after a few visits."
Shopkeeper Chen seemed to be lost in thought. Is it really... like this?
"By the way, girl, didn't I hear you say before that your mother is weak? It just so happens that Doctor Qin is here to your house this time. Why not take your mother's pulse?"
Shopkeeper Chen suddenly remembered what Jiang Wan said when she first went to Huichuntang. Now that he came to her house, he just remembered it.
"Will it cause trouble to Mr. Qin?"
Old Qin smiled helplessly. "It's just a piece of cake. Besides, girl, you can help us make the ointment this time. We should thank you."
"Thank you, Mr. Qin."
If he didn't speak, Jiang Wan was still thinking about shamelessly asking him to help her mother take a look.
"Ali, go and call your parents home."
Before Jiang Li could say anything, Jiang Hao, who was originally holding the doll, suddenly said, "Sister, I'll go call my parents—"
After saying that, he ran out immediately.
Seeing him like this, the others smiled helplessly.
"That's perfect, Mr. Qin, Uncle Chen, you can stay here for dinner. I just picked some fresh vegetables and stewed a pheasant today. I'll stir-fry two more dishes later so you can have a taste of my cooking."
"That would be great."
Shopkeeper Chen smiled and said, "I wanted to say it then. As soon as I came in, I smelled the fragrance all over the yard. I finally waited for you to say this. So I stayed with a smile."
"Uncle Chen is so polite. I should be the one thanking you."
She was an ordinary peasant girl with no background. She originally went to Huichuntang to sell herbs with a lucky attitude. Even if she made ointments, ordinary pharmacies would not dare to accept them easily. In fact, they had already helped her a lot.
Shopkeeper Chen's attitude towards her was much kinder than that of ordinary people.
"Then you guys chat first, I'll go to the kitchen to take a look."
As soon as I walked in, I saw Shen Qiwen standing there, staring intently at the pot on the stove.
It was as if he wanted to stare a big hole in it.
"Brother Shen, what are you doing?"
Seeing him like that, Jiang Wan couldn't suppress the smile on her face anymore and laughed out loud.
"Didn't you ask me to come over and watch the pot?"
"I asked you to check the heat, not to stare through the pot."
When you open the lid of the pot, a thick mist wafts out and the fragrance becomes stronger and stronger.
Jiang Wan took a deep breath and said, "Hmm, not bad."
He stirred the meat in the pot with a soup spoon, put in the green vegetables, and then closed the lid.
Shen Qiwen kept his eyes fixed on Jiang Wan's movements until she closed the lid of the pot, swallowed her saliva calmly, and slowly raised her head.
"Jiang Yue is missing."
"Um?"
Jiang Wan didn't react for a moment. After a while, when she came to her senses, the smile on her face disappeared.
"How come?"
The people in Old Jiang's family are still here, so how could Jiang Yue disappear for no reason?
Shen Qiwen glanced at her and said, "There's no trace of her at the Jiang family. After she last appeared at the village granary, she went deep into the mountains. There has been no news of her in the past."
Into the mountains? No movement?
Could it be...
"Brother Shen, deep in the mountains, besides you... I mean, besides the people you know, is there another group of people?"
"Um."
Shen Qiwen nodded, without asking how she knew.
"That's right. Jiang Yue will definitely not fight an unprepared battle. Since that group of bandits is of no use to her, she will naturally choose another group. Not to mention, that group of people is the one she has always been thinking about."
As she spoke these words, her emotions fluctuated greatly. Shen Qiwen had been paying attention to her emotions, and when he saw her so excited, a strange look flashed in his eyes.
"You... hate Jiang Yue?"
Hate?
This word is a bit too light.
It should be said that it is hatred. How can someone like her live such a peaceful life?
Thinking that Shen Qiwen was still there, she suppressed the hatred in her eyes.
"My good grandmother wanted to marry me to that idiot from the Liang family, but it was all Jiang Yue's doing. She even used my mother to force me."
"Before, if the village hadn't been prepared, I'm afraid my whole family would have been killed by those bandits if you were here."
The hatred in her heart was more than just a little bit.
Shen Qiwen remained silent and said nothing.
After a long while, he moved his lips and said, "Those bandits in the mountains will be wiped out in the next few days. From now on, if you go into the mountains again, you don't have to worry about bandits."
"So soon?"
"Well, originally they were kept just to get the person behind it."
But I didn’t expect that the person behind the scenes was so cunning that he didn’t even show up.
Moreover, with the involvement of a third party, things become more complicated.
Plus Jiang Yue... his intuition told him that the relationship between Jiang Yue and the third party was definitely not simple.
After the meal, Old Qin took Su Yun's pulse.
His brows furrowed tighter and tighter.
"Mr. Qin, what's wrong? Is there something wrong with my mother's body?"
