Huo Dong escorted the mother and daughter out of the house.
Liu Yuhan asked her mother and Grandma Qin to go back to the carriage and wait for her. Grandma Qin saw that there were guards at the gate of the mansion, so she took her daughter to the carriage first.
Liu Yuhan and Huo Dong were not far from the mansion gate, about half a meter away.
"Miss Xiaohan, do you have anything to ask me?"
"Brother Huo Dong, I wonder if taking us out will affect your schedule? If not, just ask Brother Huo Er to take us there." Liu Yuhan still didn't want to trouble him, after all, he was the one who was going to lead the troops into battle.
"The seaside has been relatively peaceful recently, so there's no need to worry, Miss Xiaohan. I didn't force myself."
"Then I'll trouble you, Brother Huo Dong. If you help us, I will give you a big gift."
"Oh? Then Brother Huo Dong is looking forward to Miss Xiaohan's gift." Huo Dong smiled at her gently.
Liu Yuhan left, and Huo Dong entered the mansion only after seeing that their carriage had disappeared.
He went to find his grandfather to arrange and hand over the subsequent work. His grandfather had two deputy generals, and he himself also had two right-hand men.
In order to reduce the number of targets, the remaining manpower was left to the grandfather. He decided to keep a low profile and take the mother and daughter to Haiyu Island.
After the old general heard what he had said, he looked at him hesitantly, with a gossipy look on his face.
Huo Dong was sitting at his grandfather's desk, writing something. He didn't even raise his head, but he could feel his grandfather's eyes fixed on him, and he had almost nowhere to hide.
"Grandfather, why are you staring at me? Ask whatever you want."
"Have you known Miss Xiaohan for a long time?"
"Well, Grandfather, do you still remember the epidemic in Yiyang City? I stayed in Yiyang City for nearly a month."
"Could it be possible that you knew them there?"
"Indeed. Miss Xiaohan's contribution to the rapid containment of the epidemic in Yiyang City cannot be underestimated. Uncle Wen almost petitioned the capital for her credit, but the little girl declined. She's just a little girl, and it's better for her not to accept the credit. She's very smart."
"The little girl is a doctor, and she is also studying medicine. I heard that Doctor Liu, who has just come to Dejitang under my grandmother's name, is now his direct disciple."
"I heard from Butler Huo that several doctors at Dejitang said she was diligent and studious, and extremely talented."
"You went to Fulai Village to deliver gifts on behalf of Huo Yi, right? You went to meet them."
Huo Dong nodded.
"I see."
"Could it be that you have fallen for that little girl? Tsk tsk, you are so old, she might not even be of age yet."
"Grandfather, you...what are you talking about? She is still young, only a few years older than Huo Xi."
"Tsk tsk, I think Miss Xiaohan is a good girl. She is dignified, beautiful, gentle and generous. She is also capable. She doesn't need to wait until she reaches the age of 15. I'm afraid she will attract the admiration of many men."
Huo Dong stopped writing and his mind suddenly became confused. What was he thinking about?
Seeing him like this, the old general fell silent. This foolish boy had lived for 19 years in vain. He was even more stupid than he was back then...
…………………………
Liu Yuhan returned to the pharmacy to continue studying medicine. Huo Dong said he needed three days to prepare. Then, he would go back to Fulai Village with them, and then go to Haiyu Island. They were heading in that general direction.
When her master was free today, Liu Yuhan weakly told her master that she was planning to go to Haiyu Island, which might take quite a while.
"What? You want to go to Haiyu Island? Okay, I'll go with you. I've always wanted to take you to the mountains to look for medicinal herbs. The herbs on the island should be more abundant."
"Really? That's great, Master! Hehehe, I was afraid you would scold me."
"Silly girl, how could your master be so cruel? Hurry up and sort out all the recent medical records and notes. You need to carry them with you and memorize them."
"Yes, Master!"
Liu Yuhan was busy and excited. With her master by her side, she wouldn't fall behind in her medical studies. She also wanted to follow her master into the mountains to search for and identify medicinal herbs. She still retained her original passion for the mountains, forests, and crops.
Liu Yuhan and her mother agreed to spend half a day in the capital to buy some daily necessities. They were worried that there would be a shortage of daily necessities on the island.
The last time I sold the bracelet, I got 1,000 taels. Before that, I had more than 600 taels left, and with the money I spent, I still had 1,400 taels.
Although there was still a lot of white rice, white flour, brown rice and black flour in the space, Liu Yuhan still bought 1,000 kilograms of white rice and white flour respectively. The store gave discounts for buying more, and the total cost was 36 taels of silver.
There was still a lot of cloth in the space, so she bought three pieces of cotton-padded clothes and coarse cloth, ready-made cloth shoes, for men, women and children, as well as some needles and thread, spending a total of 50 taels.
I went to the grocery store and bought a lot of dry goods, dried fruits, malt sugar snacks, and all kinds of buns, steamed buns and pancakes from several stalls, spending another 30 taels.
I went to the largest restaurants in the city and bought a lot of cooked food, cooked chicken and duck, and a lot of wine, spending 20 taels.
I went to the market and bought a whole slaughtered pig and about 200 eggs, spending 4 taels.
Finally, I went to the pharmacy and bought some medicine at Dejitang, and some more at other large pharmacies. They were all daily necessities, such as hemostasis, typhoid treatment, and mosquito fumigation. The medicine was quite expensive and cost more than 50 taels.
Three days later.
Huo Dong was dressed as a guard, wearing a black suit, a black dragon-embroidered belt around his waist, a long sword on his back, and a black scarf covering his face, leaving only his eyes exposed.
Huo Dong pulled a larger and more spacious carriage. The carriage had a simple and elegant body, and the interior was covered with soft velvet carpets. There were no excessive decorations, and the doors were carved with exquisite patterns, exuding a noble and elegant atmosphere.
