Chapter 888: She Winked at Him
Editor: Henyee Translations
Shao Qingyuan saw that she had been winking at him, and his eyes lit up. Was she… winking at him?
He quickly followed her and the two of them walked into the central room to talk.
“Did everything go smoothly these few days?” Gu Yundong asked.
Shao Qingyuan looked around and saw Madam Yang standing not far away. He felt a little regretful that he couldn’t hold her hand.
He cleared his throat and nodded. “It went well.”
“You went back and asked Qin Wenzheng about the Tao family, right? What did he say? How involved is Tao Xing? Will he implicate you?”
This was what Gu Yundong was most concerned about now. The Tao family had sinned, but she could not just watch them make a fool of themselves. It was too worrying.
Speaking of this, Shao Qingyuan became more serious. “From what Qin Wenzheng said, this matter hasn’t been completely investigated. The Tao family… seems to be quite involved.”
Gu Yundong’s heart skipped a beat. Quite involved? That serious?
Her brows were tightly furrowed. In the end, Shao Qingyuan couldn’t help but reach out and smoothen her brows. “It’s fine. Although Qin Wenzheng didn’t say anything explicitly, he promised me that he would keep me safe.” n/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om
Hearing this, Gu Yundong heaved a sigh of relief.
Since Qin Wenzheng said such things, he definitely knew what to do.
However, they couldn’t just rely on others. She felt uneasy that they didn’t have a plan b.
“You don’t have to worry too much.” Shao Qingyuan didn’t want her to worry too much, so he changed the topic as if nothing had happened. “Is everything alright at home these few days? I heard that Gu Qiuyue… is gone?”
After Shao Qingyuan entered the city, he first transported the herbs to the shop. Ah Zhu, who was in the shop now, quietly told him about this.
Gu Yundong nodded. “She’s gone.” She did not say anything else. “The family is doing well. My father has also returned to school. Speaking of which, the flowers that my mother grafted have been raised. I don’t know what the flowers will look like in the future. I’ll only know when spring comes next year. By the way, Doctor Xiong came over yesterday. He originally wanted to treat Uncle’s leg yesterday, but Uncle did not agree. He said that he had to wait for my Eldest Aunt to come back.”
At the mention of Doctor Xiong, Shao Qingyuan couldn’t help but shake his head and ask, “Has he gone to other clinics to look for a doctor these few days?”
“Why not? He had an appointment with Doctor Wang yesterday. Unfortunately, Doctor Wang was treating a child, but that child had smallpox and was gone. Doctor Xiong did not disturb him.” Gu Yundong sighed. “Speaking of which, smallpox is really worrying. The day before yesterday, I went to a farm outside the city and saw that there was smallpox on the cow. I was shocked. Fortunately, an aunt said that it was not smallpox, but cowpox.”
Because the milk tea shop needed a large amount of milk, Madam Dai and Nie Shuang bought a few cows near the Xuanhe Prefecture and specially found a place to raise them. They even hired farmers who were already skilled to take care of these cows.
“Fortunately, the disease of cowpox is much lighter than smallpox. Although it can also infect people, they won’t die after they get infected. By the way, I heard that those who have had cowpox don’t have smallpox. Don’t you think it’s magical?”
Shao Qingyuan was originally quietly listening to her talk about trivial matters, but when he heard this, he suddenly paused. “You’re saying that people who have cowpox won’t have smallpox anymore?”
Gu Yundong nodded. “That’s right. Those aunts had it before. Even some of their own children had cowpox, but they were fine.”
