206 Accident
“Please help me thank Doctor Sun. It’s already so late, so I won’t disturb him.”
“Be careful on the road.”
Zhao Zhan nodded and left through the back door.
Fortunately, there was no curfew in Hekou County at the moment. From Hekou County to Yang City, one could go directly to the official road from the South Gate. Zhao Zhan rode out of the city and tied his horse to a tree not far from the South Gate, waiting quietly for the two people to come out of the city.
!!
Yue Jiaojiao woke up and waited on the bed for a moment. When she didn’t see Zhao Zhan enter the room, she knew that he must have set off for Yang City.
She got up, washed up, and walked out of the door. She saw Doctor Sun walking over with his hands behind his back. “Have you had your breakfast?”
“Yes, I did. One of the boys placed breakfast on the stool in front of the courtyard.
“Your three meals a day are all medicinal cuisines that I’ve specially instructed the boys to make for you. Only by doing so and along with acupuncture can you recover your memory as soon as possible.”
As Doctor Sun spoke, he had already taken out a silver needle. “Are you prepared for today?”
Yue Jiaojiao nodded her head.
This continued until the fifth day when Yue Jiaojiao received a letter from Wangshan Town.
“Madam Zhao.” Sun Jiyan wanted to call out Jiaojiao’s name, but when he realized that she had no memory of meeting him, he silently changed his words. “There’s a letter from Wangshan Town. I’ve specially brought it over for you.”
“Thank you.”
Yue Jiaojiao reached out to take the letter, then knelt down to thank him. She opened the letter in front of Sun Jiyan.
If nothing major had happened, no one in Wangshan would suddenly send them a letter.
“What happened?”
Sun Jiyan saw that Yue Jiaojiao’s expression was not right, and he subconsciously looked a little worried.
“I’m going to the dock,” Yue Jiaojiao said as she returned to her room to grab a cloak and put it on.
Zhao Zhan wasn’t around, so no one would be by her side all the time, and carefully prepare everything in advance.
She missed Zhao Zhan.
“Before you leave…” Sun Jiyan blocked the door. “Zhao Zhan asked my master to take good care of you. There are many people at the dock, come to me if something happens.”
Afraid that he would arouse suspicion, Sun Jiyan paused for a moment before saying something else, “There are a lot of medicine boys in the clinic. If you have something to do, you can just find two people to help you. If you don’t agree, I’ll have to ask my master to come and persuade you personally.”
“Jiyan, I plan to go to the dock and ask if there is a ship that can leave for Huai County in the next few days.”
Sun Jiyan’s expression froze. He could not help but ask in a surprised tone, “Zhao Zhan has not returned yet, and you have not recovered your memory. Will you be going alone?”
“Zhao Zhan will definitely return in the next few days.”
Seeing her serious face, Sun Jiyan didn’t say anything more. “I’ll get the medicine boy to go with you.”
After Sun Jiyan left, Yue Jiaojiao turned around and went back to her room to write a letter. She then left through the back door and went to the courier station to mail the letter.
After doing all this, Yue Jiaojiao had just turned around when she heard the sound of hurried horse hooves coming from not far away.
She subconsciously stopped and looked up.
The horse was approaching menacingly, and the person riding the horse had no intention of pulling the reins. It looked like the horse was going straight to her face.
In her panic, Yue Jiaojiao hurriedly tried to retreat. However, no matter how fast she was, she couldn’t outrun the horse that was galloping toward her.
