Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Gu Yundong went to the pharmacy next door and grabbed a few herbs.
Then, she found an empty place and wrapped the letter for Qin Wenzheng with oil paper in two layers before placing it in the secret compartment of the box that she had just made. She took a hairpin and placed it in the box before covering it.
Then, she took the medicine bag and box to an escort company not far away.
She went straight to the escort in charge. “I want to send something to Fengkai County in Xuanhe Prefecture, but the thing I want to send is very urgently needed. It’s best if it can be delivered within four days.”
The escort leader frowned. Four days? It was a little rushed to travel from Wanqing Prefecture to Xuanhe Prefecture.
He did not agree and only asked, “What’s to be sent?”
Gu Yundong took out a medicine bag and a box. “I have a friend who’s terminally ill and needs medicine urgently. These are the medicines I found for her. They’re for saving her life. And this box. She left the hairpin inside with me. It’s something her mother left for her. Let’s leave it for her as a memento.”
The escort leader understood. This was a life-saving thing, and it didn’t leave any regrets.
After a pause, he looked at Gu Yundong and said, “We’ll take this escort, but you know that if we want to rush to the Xuanhe Prefecture in such a short time, not to mention traveling day and night, we’ll definitely have to change horses inbetween. I’m afraid this price is not cheap.”
Qin Wenzheng was such a smart person. When he saw the medicine packet, he should be able to guess that she had sent it to him, right? After all, he knew that she had come to Wanqing Prefecture to look for medicine.
She had given him medicine for no reason, and there was also an inexplicable hairpin and box. He would definitely notice that something was wrong.
He was a young top scholar after all, so his brain worked quickly.
Gu Yundong expressed that she was very confident in Qin Wenzheng. Hopefully, he would not want to disappoint him.
As for the 100 taels of silver, she would get it back from the Xin family.
After she was done, she turned around and walked towards the inn.
Before leaving, she even went to the ready-to-wear shop to buy a few sets of clothes for Gu Dajiang and Xue Rong.
When she went to Grandpa Yu’s house, she didn’t bring Gu Dajiang’s two sets of tattered clothes back.
She couldn’t wear those clothes at all. They were all patched up. Could it be that she was wearing the clothes cleanly and let her father wear dirty clothes?
Carrying his clothes, Gu Yundong’s footsteps became much lighter.
Unexpectedly, as soon as he entered the inn, he saw a familiar middle-aged man.
Wasn’t this... the man who was talking to Xin Zhiyuan in the room that day?
