Qin Feng thought for a moment and said, "Naturally, we'll buy herbs."
Qiu Yan pressed further, "How do you acquire it?"
Qin Feng's eyes flickered slightly: "This... depends on the quality of the herbs..."
Qiu Yan asked again, "Where do you usually source your products?"
"From... a pharmacy, no, we have suppliers who grow medicinal herbs." Qin Feng couldn't continue his fabrication. Why was this girl so interested in the business of medicine merchants?
"Girls, I have other things to do, you guys eat first."
Qin Feng left the restaurant in a hurry.
Qiu Yan sneered, "Good riddance, saves me from getting in the way." She did it on purpose.
“This person is a liar; he’s definitely not a good person,” Gu Qian said, as he placed a piece of succulent venison on Qiu Yan’s plate.
Qiu Yan took a small bite of the venison and said, "Do you think the young couple that man was talking about just now, were they Second Uncle and Sister Jiang?"
"Second Uncle and Madam Tang...a harmonious couple?" How could that be?
Gu Qian shook his head. How much Yan Yan wanted to find her second uncle and the others? Anyone could connect them to her.
Qiu Yan couldn't explain it to Gu Qian in just a few words, "Maybe, maybe, no."
Gu Qian stopped the topic and glanced down at the dishes on the table: "Shipping is disrupted, but Shuangxi Pavilion has all the ingredients."
Other inns and restaurants have all run out of stock.
Qiu Yan: "It's possible, it was stored away before." In the cold winter, food is easier to preserve.
They finished their meal quickly, left the restaurant, and returned to the street.
Because of the incident that morning, the two tried to avoid patrolling the streets as much as possible.
They learned that the eastern part of the city was mostly inhabited by wealthy merchants and officials, while the western part was inhabited by ordinary people.
The courtyards of wealthy merchants and officials have all been completely occupied by the Northern Qi army; any attempt to search there would be futile.
Therefore, the two walked quickly and headed straight for the west of the city.
Before long, they arrived at the west side of the city.
The western part of the city is all narrow alleys, and the roads are not as wide as those in the eastern part of the city.
There are no patrols here, and pedestrians often pass through the alley.
...Inside the dilapidated courtyard, Father Jiang was restless, pacing back and forth endlessly.
Jiang Lian has been in a coma for two days and has not yet woken up.
Inside the west room, Jiang's mother, Jiang Liu, and Yun Shi looked at Jiang Lian's unconscious state with great concern. Like Jiang's father, they were restless and uneasy.
So many people have died recently, they're really afraid Jiang Lian will die too.
Also present was Zheng Hong, who had saved Jiang Lian from dire straits that day.
“Aunt Jiang, the Third Young Master’s condition cannot be delayed. I will send you out of the city now to find a good doctor.”
Qiu Dafu had said this before, but Jiang's father flatly rejected it.
Speaking of good doctors, Jiang Liu suddenly thought of Qiu Yan.
"Perhaps, we can give it a try."
"No!" Mother Jiang shook her head. "Hasn't Qiu Dafu already gone out to find a doctor? Besides, can Lian'er even leave the city in this condition?"
My master is old and frail, and Liu'er and her daughter-in-law are both girls. Where can they stay after leaving the city?
Jiang's mother was unaware that Jiang Liu had opened a clothing shop in Baiyang.
Currently, they have no one available besides Qiu Dafu and Zheng Hong.
Yun also disagreed, saying that if the trip did not go smoothly, their lives would be in danger.
Knock, knock, knock. Qiu Dafu knocked on the door and entered, followed by a doctor.
Rather than following, it's more accurate to say dragging things along.
The old doctor's expression was indifferent, and his face was full of displeasure.
In just two days, Qiu Dafu searched almost every clinic and pharmacy in Huaiyuan City, but unfortunately, no one was willing to come to his door to treat him.
Who knows who is being asked to see a doctor? They certainly don't want to risk their lives for a small consultation fee.
Father Jiang treated Qiu Dafu with lukewarm indifference. He nodded and smiled at the old doctor.
However, his smile did not earn him a kind look from the old doctor; instead, he received a pair of angry eyes.
Mr. Jiang coughed lightly, his expression changing slightly. Considering his son's injuries, he wasn't angry.
