"Daughter-in-law, you must know the contents of the base ingredients. I will be leaving for a while in a couple of days, and the task of supplying the Fang family will be entrusted to you. The money paid will be your and Xingxing and Yueyue's source of income in the future!"
Zhang He didn't understand, but she didn't ask any more questions. Her mother always had her own reasons, and it would be pointless for her to ask.
The two escorted Mu Yang into the academy, where they were greeted by a white-haired teacher whose every gesture exuded scholarly air.
After paying the money and instructing Mu Yang to study hard, Qin Qing hurriedly left with Zhang He.
Mu Yang followed behind the teacher, glancing back at their retreating figures with a determined look in his eyes…
After that, they wandered around the streets. Butter was easy to find, bay leaves and cinnamon were not hard to come by, and green onions were no problem either. The main issues were getting Sichuan peppercorns and small red chilies...
She could only leave out the Sichuan peppercorns for now. Following the recipe from her memory, she found a large pot and put the seasonings in one by one, while Zhang He watched carefully from the side.
After much effort, the first batch of base sauce was finally formed. The taste was so-so, more fragrant than the ancient seasonings, but completely different from her base sauce.
The next day, she went to the eldest son of the Fang family and told him that her daughter-in-law would be the one delivering the materials from now on. She also gave him ten days' worth of base materials and some newly made base materials. After receiving the money, she told Zhang He to recognize her and then got up to go home.
Behind him, Fang Ran narrowed his eyes slightly, seemingly deep in thought, while the city management officer beside him frowned.
"Is the young master worried that the ingredients she provided are inappropriate? Otherwise..."
Fang Ran shook his head, a meaningful look appearing on his handsome face!
"It's alright. I doubt she'd dare to do anything reckless. Qingcheng isn't a small place!"
When Qin Qing and his companion returned home, it was already late. The family sat together to eat hot pot. The two little ones next to them were flushed and sweating profusely, panting heavily as they ate!
Qin Qing and Zhang He, however, couldn't eat!
After two days of hard work, her worries were finally relieved. Once the two little ones were asleep, she carefully counted the money in her spatial storage. The previous seventy-three taels plus the money she had recently earned totaled a full one hundred and thirteen taels! Not to mention that Young Master Fang had also given her enough money for ten days' worth of supplies!
After thinking for a moment, she took out one hundred taels and gave them to Zhang He, putting the rest into her spatial storage.
Zhang He was stunned when she saw the heavy silver in her hand. She never expected her family to be so rich. She had never seen so much silver in her life!
Qin Qing didn't explain, but for some reason, she felt uneasy. She quickly packed her things that night, then took out a hot pot and snacks from her spatial storage. Looking at the two sleeping children, her heart was filled with love.
She left early in the morning before her granddaughter woke up.
She hasn't left the three little ones since she transmigrated, but the battlefield is no joke. If anything happens to them, it will be too late for her to regret it.
In the afternoon, she sat in the carriage, constantly recalling everything from the original plot, but to no avail! After all, the novel was written around the female protagonist, and cannon fodder characters like the original owner's eldest son were only mentioned a few times by Mu Yang after he grew up.
A few days later, a carriage entered the border. The spring sun was very warm, and the woman in the carriage slowly fell asleep, but the bumpy ride prevented her from falling completely asleep...
"Clang!"
Suddenly the whole world began to shake. Before Qin Qing could react, her head slammed into the carriage frame. A sharp pain shot through her, and she couldn't help but complain!
"Ouch! Ouch! Ouch! Big brother, watch out, someone's going to die!"
Having said that, she covered her head and angrily lifted the curtain...
The coachman, a middle-aged man, was also unwilling after hearing what she said!
"Hey girl, I wanted to keep an eye out too, but this silver thing just darted out like that, I can't just run right into it!"
With a strong regional accent, Qin Qing rubbed his forehead and looked ahead to see the unconscious figure.
Dressed in black, her delicate face was filled with weakness. She clutched her abdomen with one hand, her brows furrowed tightly, clearly indicating that she was injured!
Logically, she should have gone down to check on the situation, and then, out of kindness, taken the person to a clinic or something, but Qin Qing did not make any move.
She hesitated for a moment, then whispered.
"Brother, let's take a different route..."
Hearing her say that, the driver was obviously stunned, and the man on the ground also froze. He never expected this person to be so cold-blooded!
"Okay... I'll listen to you!"
The coachman knew that this place was close to the military camp, and it would be very dangerous if the driver was a spy or an enemy! He was just a messenger who drove a carriage to earn some extra money, and he didn't want to get into any trouble!
The carriage started moving again, and just as the person was about to pass by him, the man panicked and pretended to slowly open his eyes, calling out weakly.
"Help...help me! Help me!"
The coachman turned around in surprise upon hearing the sound, but Qin Qing frowned deeply!
"Big brother, forget about him, let's go!"
She didn't believe it was such a coincidence that she said she was leaving and that person just happened to wake up. The woods were so big, yet he just happened to fall down here. She would never believe there wasn't a conspiracy!
The driver could only give him an apologetic look before driving away…
The man was left lying on the ground in shock. After a long while, he suddenly stood up and started cursing in the direction the carriage had gone!
"Bah! A doctor should have a compassionate heart, but this old woman has none of that!"
This person is none other than the legendary divine physician An Ziyun! At only twenty years old, his medical skills are outstanding and unparalleled in the world. He has a handsome appearance. Some time ago, an unknown disease appeared in the army, and he was invited to treat it. When he passed by Qingcheng Street, he happened to see Qin Qing's strange examination method. He was curious, but was forcibly dragged away!
He saw that old woman again today, and naturally wanted to try to see how he would save her, but he didn't expect her to be so wary and cold-blooded, refusing to help her even as she was dying!
After saying that, An Ziyun dusted himself off, turned around, and disappeared back into the bushes to search for herbs…
Qin Qing quickly put the matter out of his mind, and before dark, the carriage finally stopped outside the military camp!
After several days of travel, she finally arrived at her destination, but she couldn't get in. The messenger simply handed the items to the soldiers and then drove away!
Just as she was locked in a stalemate with the soldiers, a gasp came from behind her!
"Medic! Medic!"
She turned her head and quickly made way for him. She saw a man carrying a figure on his back. He looked very flustered and anxious, with a large group following closely behind him!
It was clearly an army that had just returned from fighting the enemy.
Unwittingly, Qin Qing seemed to see a familiar face, like a deputy general who had stood behind General Wang Yan that day. As soon as the group approached, she quickly shouted!
"Deputy General Zhang!"
Fortunately, she had heard about this person from Aunt Wang.
A woman's voice suddenly rang out, and Deputy General Zhang, who was in a tense situation, subconsciously turned his head. He saw a woman standing not far away, looking at him with a surprised expression. The slightly familiar face surprised him!
