"I'm leaving soon."
Her face turned pale, "Then...then when will you be back?"
Yu Zhiheng paused for a moment before saying, "It could be as short as ten days, or as long as a month. Fortunately, the military camp isn't too far from here. I'll come to see you if I have time."
After that, he took out a handful of silver and handed it to Sang Yu. "This is the money for hunting. I have already paid for the money for building the house. You don't need to worry. It may be a bit chaotic outside these few days. You should stay at home and don't run around. Okay?"
Sang Yu nodded, Yu Zhiheng looked at her again, then turned and left.
Sang Yu kept looking at Yu Zhiheng's back until he could no longer see her. Then she looked at the silver in her hand and was shocked.
Not counting the silver that Yu Zhiheng gave her in the past few days and the money for building the house, the money in her hands alone is twenty taels of silver. What kind of hunting did he do to earn so much silver?
What Sang Yu didn't know was that if Yu Zhiheng wasn't afraid of Sang Yu becoming suspicious, he would have wanted to give her a hundred taels.
But it’s good to have more money. Sang Yu is short of money now, so it can be regarded as a solution to his urgent need.
After Yu Zhiheng left, Sang Yu took the money and went to see the newly built house. It was spacious and clean. After waiting for it to dry for a while, they could sleep in it.
Lin Xiaoxiao had already prepared the meal. Seeing that Sang Yu was in a bad mood, she just looked at her from a distance without saying anything until Sang Yu called her over.
"Your brother-in-law is away on a business trip. From now on, you should move your quilt to the new room first. Lin Hai will sleep in that room by himself. After all, he's a boy and he's not young anymore. There was no choice but to move in a few days ago because there were not enough rooms. Wait until the new room is dry, then you can move in."
"Okay." Lin Xiaoxiao nodded, "Thank you, sister. I know everything."
Sang Yu told her about selling medicine today, and asked her if she had any familiar friends. She wanted Lin Xiaoxiao to bring two people to help her make medicine tomorrow, and she would pay each of them thirty cents.
Lin Xiaoxiao was shocked when she heard this. You know, thirty cents is really a lot. After all, it is a job in the town, and the wages for working hard are only twenty cents. There will definitely be a lot of people vying for such a job. She will definitely help to keep a close eye on it and not attract some lazy and greedy people.
After dinner, Sang Yu prepared all the cold medicines in the house and then slowly ground them into powder.
He also taught Lin Xiaoxiao the whole process. Although it was her first time learning it, Lin Xiaoxiao was smart enough to get the hang of it quickly.
There was a lot to do today and it was impossible to finish it, so Sang Yu only did a part of it, and left the rest for Lin Xiaoxiao to find someone to do together tomorrow.
When it was night, Sang Yu lay in bed but tossed and turned and couldn't fall asleep.
She had clearly not spent much time with Yu Zhiheng, but she didn't expect that she would feel so uncomfortable after he left.
I don't know if Yu Zhiheng is doing well in the military camp, if he's hungry, cold, or if he misses her...
At this time, on the other side of the mountain, in the military tent, a man wearing golden armor, holding a long sword in his hand, looked majestic and fierce.
He had a handsome face, a high nose bridge, and rosy lips, but he didn't look feminine at all. His face was angular and his eyes were full of gloom.
He looked at the two young generals kneeling in front of him with a cold and heartless look as if he was looking at two dead people.
"Your Highness, please spare my life! Please spare my life!" The two young generals kept kowtowing and begging for mercy. Zhu Ying beside them also said, "Your Highness, now is the time to use people. How about... swish——"
There was a flash of cold light, and the two people on the ground fell to the ground.
Blood flowed from the neck, but the sword was as smooth as new, without a trace of blood.
"Drag them out! Hang them at the front of the camp and show everyone what happens when they betray me!"
As soon as he finished speaking, two soldiers came in from outside and quickly dragged the two away.
“clang!”
Yu Zhiheng sheathed his sword and turned to look at Zhuying.
Zhu Ying swallowed in fear and said quickly, "Master...Master, the secret guards just sent news that everything is normal with Madam!"
Hearing this, Yu Zhiheng's expression softened instantly. "Give orders to the secret guards to report all her news in detail."
"yes!"
The next day, Sang Yu got up in a hurry at dawn, said goodbye to Lin Xiaoxiao and went to the county town. He got off the ox cart, bought a bun from the roadside, and walked towards Doctor Lu's medicine shop.
Finally, I wasn't late today. Doctor Lu had just sat down and smiled when he saw Sang Yu coming over. "You're early today."
"I got up late yesterday, and it's a good thing you didn't argue with me, doctor."
"You're quite clever, girl." Doctor Lu smiled, stroking his beard. "How's it going? Are you confident today?"
Sang Yu smiled gently, "Of course! I guarantee you will be impressed!"
"You're quite arrogant."
Sang Yu smiled and said, "I'm thinking of opening a big pharmacy in the future and asking you, doctor, to help me manage it!"
Doctor Lu also laughed. "You are quite brave, girl. Do you know how much it costs to have me see you?"
"Of course it's worth a fortune, but I believe the doctor doesn't care about the money, but whether he can truly help the people."
Doctor Lu stopped smiling now. He looked at Sang Yu and nodded with satisfaction, "At least I was right."
As he was speaking, more and more people came to see the doctor. Doctor Lu began to take their pulses, and Sang Yu was also on high alert.
I saw more and more people coming to Dr. Lu's side, but no one coming to Sang Yu's side.
Lu Zongping glanced at Sang Yu and saw that she was still full of confidence and not at all anxious because there was no one around. He nodded with satisfaction.
After a while, someone came over to Sang Yu.
"Girl, how much do you want for the one you gave me yesterday? I didn't expect it to be so good. I want to buy some more."
"Yes, it is not only convenient but also effective, especially for children. It is very convenient for them to take medicine."
A few people bought some more as they talked about it, and those who were originally watching felt relieved after hearing this and joined Sang Yu's side.
Usually, a dose of medicine for colds and winds costs one hundred wen, which is only the amount needed for one day. However, Sang Yu's medicine only costs five hundred wen for a week, which is not only more convenient than boiling medicine, but also much cheaper.
So more and more people came to buy medicine at once, and even Dr. Lu recommended his patients with colds to buy medicine from Sang Yu.
In just one morning, all the medicines Sang Yu had prepared were sold out, even the medicines for cough and dysentery were gone.
She apologized repeatedly to the patients who failed to buy the medicine, and said that she would come again early the next morning. Only after everyone left did she breathe a sigh of relief.
She expected there to be a lot more people today, but she didn't expect there to be so many.
In the long run, the medicinal materials at home would not be enough, and she would definitely not buy them from Huichuntang in the county town. It seemed that she had to find a solution from elsewhere.
