Chapter 264: Seeking Medicine
"A large carriage has come to my house?" Gu Qingqing asked Geng Wen, who had stopped running in front of her, in confusion.
"Well, Grandpa Yang asked me to come and find you guys." Geng Wen is a bit introverted and doesn't talk much.
After finishing what Old Yang had told him to do, he stood aside without saying a word, as if waiting for Gu Qingqing's reply.
When Gu Qingqing looked at Wen Wuyan, Wen Wuyan was also looking at her. Both of them saw the suspicion in each other's eyes.
Then she heard him say, "Qingqing, you go back first and take a look. I'll pull the cart and walk slowly with the child behind."
Gu Qingqing did not back down and nodded slightly, "Okay, I'll go back and see who it is. Geng Wen, let's go." After Gu Qingqing said this, she originally wanted to take Sanhua back first, but when she turned around, she saw Erhua holding her and sitting in the car, babbling with joy.
She gave up the idea of taking Sanhua with her, and turned and left after saying "You guys help push the cart." Although she didn't say it explicitly, it was obvious that Dahua and Li Xin knew that these words were directed at her.
As a result, before she took two steps, she heard Wen Wuyan's urging voice "Go, go" from behind.
Gu Qingqing looked back and saw that the donkey's four hooves were stuck to the ground again.
She didn't have time to greet Geng Wen, so she ran back a few steps quickly and reached out to untie the reins tied to the shaft of the cart.
At the same time, he laughed and scolded it, "You are also an idiot. I told you to take you home, why are you still standing there like an idiot? Can't you see that I am already walking ahead of you? If you don't follow me and stop where you are, you can get home? Come on, come back with me."
After Gu Qingqing finished speaking, she held the reins in her hands. At this moment, she didn't even need to pull them. The little donkey pranced happily, making a clattering sound that was faintly past her as it headed towards home.
Leaving behind Dahua, Daxin had a look of envy on his face and Wen Wuyan looked at him with a face that was neither amused nor helpless.
On the way back, Gu Qingqing just thought about it for a moment and seemed to have some idea.
Normally, the only carriage that could come to her house was from the Shen Mansion. She had just been to the Shen Mansion a few days ago, so it shouldn’t be someone from the Shen Mansion who came.
Besides, Mr. Shen from Qingfeng Bookstore had been here before, but he was taking care of the carriage at that time. Now their cooperation has not started yet, so I don’t think it would be him.
Then there is the girl from Shangyang County. Apart from these people, she couldn’t think of anyone else who would come in a carriage.
However, she and Shangyang County had agreed on twenty days, and there were still three days left.
The more Gu Qingqing thought about it, the more likely it was her. After all, that woman didn't care about beauty? This matter of face would probably be something she wanted to cure as soon as possible.
As a result, when she could see the door of her house, she found that the person who came was not the masked girl, but Jiang Qingxue from the Shen Mansion, who was accompanied by a girl who looked slightly younger than her.
Gu Qingqing instantly had a guess in her mind that the girl should be the little sister that Jiang Qingxue mentioned.
But at this moment, she saw the two of them pacing back and forth at her doorstep, especially the younger one, who looked extremely anxious. He was grabbing Jiang Qingxue's arm and shaking it, as if he was saying something.
When Gu Qingqing saw this, her heart skipped a beat. Could there be something wrong with the ointment she gave them?
Then people brought the patients to her house?
Thinking of this, Gu Qingqing couldn't help but quicken her pace.
Gu Qingqing led a donkey closer and finally attracted the attention of the other side. Then she saw Jiang Qingxue coming towards her.
"Auntie."
"Qingxue, why are you here? What happened?" Gu Qingqing asked anxiously.
To be honest, compared with Mrs. Shen and Jiang Qingxue, Gu Qingqing actually prefers getting along with Jiang Qingxue. It may be because the two are of similar age, so she doesn't feel restrained when getting along with them.
On the other hand, Mrs. Shen is very easy-going and kind, but she exudes the rules and temperament of a mistress of the house.
"Aunt, we came here without permission today. I hope we didn't disturb you from doing your work." Jiang Qingxue said as she looked at the donkey following her. She smiled and pointed at it and asked, "Is this the animal you bought that day?"
Seeing that she was smiling and friendly, Gu Qingqing didn't seem like someone who came to the hospital to cause trouble. She suppressed her doubts, relaxed and smiled and replied, "Don't bother me, I've already finished the work in the field."
After Gu Qingqing finished speaking, she glanced at the little girl standing beside the carriage and asked casually, "You haven't told me why you came here today? What happened? Is that your little sister?"
Gu Qingqing said this while raising her chin towards the little girl.
"Look at me, I forgot to introduce her to aunt. She is my younger sister Jiang Qingrou from my mother's family. Qingrou, come here and meet aunt Wen." The first half of Jiang Qingxue's sentence was in response to Gu Qingqing, but she turned around and said the last sentence to Jiang Qingrou.
As I said, according to their age, it is more than enough for the two sisters to call Gu Qingqing "sister", but Shen Chenan had a preconceived idea about it.
The two sisters discussed the name together and finally chose Aunt from the two names "Mrs. Wen" and "Aunt Wen".
"Qingrou greets aunt." Jiang Qingrou stepped forward and bowed. She looked like a graceful and elegant girl, but there was surprise and anxiety in her eyes. What was going on?
"Okay, okay, we are not strangers, please come into our house." Gu Qingqing was sure that they were not a medical dispute, so she quickly invited them into the yard.
"You guys take a look first, I'll take it to the backyard." Gu Qingqing said as she led the donkey to the backyard, then hurried back to the house to get a menstrual cloth and took care of herself first.
Seeing that there was hot water in the kitchen, she made a pot of tea and took the sisters into the main room.
"I came back in a hurry and I'm sorry for not hosting you well. Please don't complain that the tea at home is coarse and crude." Gu Qingqing said as she poured more tea for them.
"I don't deserve it. I knew that my aunt was busy in the fields, and I was worried that it would disturb your work." Jiang Qingxue reached out to take the tea handed to her by Gu Qingqing. On the other side, Jiang Qingrou also reached out to take the teacup. When she stretched out her arm, Gu Qingqing saw that the other person had a gauze scarf wrapped around her wrist.
Seeing her elder sister chatting endlessly, the little girl gave her several urging looks.
Jiang Qingxue patted her hands generously and teased her, "You are not patient at all. I told you that day that just applying a thin layer would be enough, but you didn't listen. You used up a bowl of ointment in just a few days. Now there is nothing left to use, are you anxious now?"
Jiang Qingrou was exposed by her elder sister in front of Gu Qingqing, and she shyly called out "elder sister."
Gu Qingqing listened to a few words and roughly understood what was going on, but still asked, "What happened?"
Jiang Qingxue gave Jiang Qingrou a glare before telling her the whole story.
It turned out that she took the medicine back for Jiang Qingrou to use. After applying it for two days, she saw significant effects. She was anxious so she secretly increased the frequency and dosage of the medicine. Now the ointment at home is about to run out, so she came here today specifically to ask for medicine.
