Lu Yuan went to the post office to call Gao Weishan, asked about his family situation, and also learned about tuberculosis. The side effects were exactly as Liang Guobin had described.
After leaving the post office, instead of going straight back to the courtyard, I went to the Commerce Bureau and found Uncle Mo first.
"Ah Yuan, what brings you here?" Mo Mingde asked in surprise.
"Uncle, I've come to ask you about something," Lu Yuan said, getting straight to the point.
"What is it?" Mo Mingde poured him a cup of tea and placed it in front of him.
Lu Yuan first recounted the visit of Liang Guobin and his son that day, and then asked, "Uncle, do you know anything about Director Liang's character?"
Uncle Mo shook his head. "I'm not familiar with him, and I've never dealt with him before, so I don't know much about him. But his reputation is alright. You know, many people don't have a particularly good impression of their work, but I've heard that Director Liang is a fair and just person, unlike others who are inhumane. I've also heard that he's grateful. His former boss's two sons had accidents and were hospitalized with no one to take care of them, so he was the one who took care of them. Everyone has a good impression of him."
"And what about your eldest uncle? What does he think of this person?"
Mo Mingde naturally had to tell Lu Yuan the truth, there was nothing to hide. He shook his head, "I think this person is hard to talk about. His former boss used to have a lot of power, and after his two sons got into trouble one after another, he was the only beneficiary. Of course, this is just my opinion, and I shouldn't let outsiders know."
Lu Yuan nodded, "Don't worry, Uncle, only Heaven, Earth, you, and I know!"
Mo Mingde smiled and said, "Actually, you can ask Director Yan about Director Liang's situation. They have a lot of dealings with each other."
"Does my uncle think we can ask Director Yan? If they have a good relationship, the information they get will probably be no different from what's being said outside."
"You can try to probe. There's a feud between the two families over disfigurement, so their relationship might not be as good as it seems."
Lu Yuan smiled; Uncle Mo seemed to understand things quite well.
The two went to the director's office together. When Yan Keqin saw that it was the two of them, he stood up and greeted them with a smile.
"Oh, Section Chief Mo, Comrade Lu, what brings you here? Come in, come in!"
"Director Yan, I apologize for disturbing you!"
"Not at all. I was saying I'd like to visit Comrade Lu and Dr. Wen sometime to thank them, but I've been so busy with work lately that I haven't had the time."
"Director Yan, you're too kind!"
After exchanging a few polite words, Mo Mingde made an excuse to leave first. Yan Keqin then knew that Lu Yuan had something to discuss with him and asked, "Comrade Lu, is there a problem with the scar removal cream or my daughter's scar?"
"Director Yan, don't worry, the medicine and the scar are fine. I'm here today for something else."
Then he recounted how the Liang family father and son had gone to see them, but instead of asking about Liang Guobin's character, he used the excuse of asking about his former boss.
“I didn’t ask for details at the time. Later, I called my dad and mentioned it. He said he couldn’t describe the patient’s condition accurately, and he didn’t know how to contact Comrade Liang. He even found out where they lived. I heard from Comrade Liang that he knew Director Yan, so I came to find you.”
Yan Keqin's expression changed slightly, and he quickly clarified, "He asked where the scar removal cream came from, but we didn't say."
Lu Yuandao said, "It's alright, my wife can make this. There's no need to hide it. If anyone still needs it, we'll replace it as long as they can afford the price. It's just that this thing can't be mass-produced like Director Liang said."
He paused and then said, "As for the other medications that Director Liang wants to treat his old leader's illness, my father is also powerless to help. However, he did say that he could try to alleviate the side effects, but I don't know if it will be effective. I want to ask Director Liang if he wants to try it. Before that, I would like to ask Director Yan if I should go to Director Liang."
Yan Keqin was taken aback. He looked up at him and saw that Lu Yuan was staring straight at him, so he understood what Lu Yuan meant.
A genuine smile immediately appeared on his face. Lu Yuan's actions showed that he trusted him more than the man surnamed Liang.
However, there were many things he couldn't say directly, so after thinking about it, he gave him the Liang family's address.
"Director Liang's former boss was also a pitiful man. His wife died early, and he struggled to raise his two sons only to have them die young. Fortunately, he later married a young and beautiful wife, but he never expected to contract a serious illness himself. Director Liang is so kind as to come to you. If there is any chance to alleviate the side effects, it would be good."
After saying that, he added, "Dr. Wen can make scar removal cream, but I'm sure Dr. Wen, being so young, wouldn't be able to make life-saving medicine."
Lu Yuan realized that this was both a test and a reminder, and nodded with a smile, "My wife can't make any medicines except for scar removal cream, so she can only help my dad out."
After leaving the director's office, Lu Yuan greeted Uncle Mo before returning to the courtyard.
The Commerce Bureau may not have learned much on this trip, but in reality, they have answered most of the questions Lu Yuan wanted to know.
"Wife, prepare some health-preserving pills. I'm going to the Liang family tonight. You go to sleep early and don't worry about me."
Wen Muxue asked, "What do you mean? Are you going to be back very late?"
"Yes, I delivered the medicine and also checked some things."
Some things you still need to confirm and find out for yourself.
"Okay, then be careful."
With Lu Yuan's abilities and the spatial ability he possessed, Wen Moxue was not worried about his safety at all.
In the evening, after dinner, Lu Yuan leisurely rode his bicycle to the Liang family's house. Liang Guobin was very welcoming to see Lu Yuan.
After exchanging a few pleasantries, Lu Yuan handed the medicine to the other party. "Director Liang, I called my father today. He said there are no other effective drugs for treating tuberculosis, but we can try this medicine to see if it can alleviate the side effects. If it can't, then there's nothing we can do."
