A Blessed Daughter

  Chapter 396 Expensive ointment

   "Miss, don't worry, the old woman from Shitou Village will come over early tomorrow morning. The ointment that Miss asked for half a month will be available soon. Miss will definitely get what she wants." Cui He said.

  Hearing this, Wei Qingwan's expression improved slightly, and finally there was some good news.

  The grandson of the old woman that Cuihe was talking about fell down mischievously before, and his body was cut deep by the rocks. His face was almost disfigured, but the ointment did not leave any scars on his body.

  That ointment is exactly what Wei Qingwan has been asking about all this time.

   Now that I have news, I make up my mind to ask why.

  Wei Qingwan nodded.

  ###

  Early in the morning of the second day, Wei Qingwan sent Cuihe to wait for someone at the back door, and the old woman from Stone Village did not appear until half an hour later than the agreed time.

  Grey hair, wrinkled face, shabby but clean clothes.

   Cui He complained a bit: It is a great honor for a village woman in the mountains to invite her to the General's Mansion, how dare she be late and make her wait!

  But thinking that the information carried by the old woman was related to the future of their young lady, Cui He endured it and took the old woman to Wangmei Garden.

  After entering the house, Cui He introduced to the old woman: "This is my young lady, please tell my young lady in detail about the ointment that healed your grandson's face."

  The old woman glanced at Wei Qingwan, and then replied: "This ointment was given by a genius doctor. My eldest grandson used three boxes, and his face completely healed without leaving any scars."

   "I've heard you say these things. My lady wants to ask you who is that genius doctor and where is he now, and how to get the ointment." Cui He said, her tone showing impatience.

   "I don't know much about the miraculous doctor and benefactor, but I can tell Miss about the ointment." The old woman replied.

   "Then tell me quickly." Cui He said anxiously.

  Wei Qingwan also looked at her eagerly.

   "The benefactor's good medicine is sold in Tongdetang in the provincial capital. Ordinary people ask if it is not available. After entering the store, they say that it is the good medicine for wounds from the doctor Xu, and the shop assistant will lead it upstairs." The old woman replied.

   "Really?" Wei Qingwan's eyes lit up obviously.

   "Miss, I dare not lie to you. You are Miss Qianjin. I also heard that you will be a princess in the future. If you give me a hundred courage, I will not dare to lie to you!" The old woman replied.

   "Just follow what you said?" Wei Qingwan confirmed again.

   "Yes, then you can buy it." The old woman replied.

   "Very good." Wei Qingwan's mouth kept rising in a good mood.

   "Miss, I will let my mother go to the provincial capital tomorrow!" Cui He said.

  Wei Qingwan nodded.

   Then another question came to mind, and he asked the old woman: "Then how much does a box of this ointment cost in Tongdetang?"

   "A box of one hundred taels of silver."

  The old woman spoke surprisingly, and said a price that made Wei Qingwan suspect that she had auditory hallucinations.

   "What? A box of one hundred taels of silver?" Cui He exclaimed directly.

   "Yes." The old woman gave an affirmative answer.

   "You old woman, are you kidding us? You, an old woman whose whole body is not worth a few pennies, can afford a box of medicine for a hundred taels of silver?" Cui He asked.

   "Of course my old woman can't afford it, even if I sell it! Didn't my old woman say it before? It was a gift from my benefactor, and we didn't ask for a penny!" the old woman explained.

   Wen Yan Cuihe looked at Wei Qingwan, frowned and asked cautiously: "Miss, what should we do now?"

  Wei Qingwan glanced at the old woman again and asked, "You said your grandson recovered after using three boxes, and there is no scar left?"

   "Yeah, I can't see it at all, as if I haven't been hurt." The old woman replied firmly.

   "You mean one box of such an expensive ointment is not enough?" Cui He was full of surprise and depression. How many months was that for her!

   "Of course, one box is not enough, two boxes still have some traces, and the three boxes can't be seen until they are used up."

   That is to say, Wei Qingwan will need to use at least three boxes, which will cost three hundred taels of silver!

  The joy on Wei Qingwan's face faded, and was replaced by sadness.

  The only jewelry she has now is worth some money, but don't say she can't sell the only jewelry she can afford, even if she sells it, she can't get so much money.

   But now she really needs this ointment very much. According to the information she inquired, the sooner this ointment is used, the better the effect. It is best to start using it immediately after the scab falls off.

   After waiting for a year or two, even if you use it, it will still leave traces.

  She has already lost some time now, and if she doesn't need to be afraid, she will have no chance.

what to do? What should she do?

  Wei Qingwan was silent for a long time without saying a word.

  Seeing that she has been silent, the old woman asked cautiously: "Miss, is there anything else the old woman can help with?"

   Cui He turned pale at the old woman and wanted to help their young lady like this? Don't even look at your identity?

  Wei Qingwan asked with a sullen face: "What did you do to meet that genius doctor, and why did that genius doctor give you the ointment?"

"There's no reason, it's just that we met by chance. The genius doctor saw that my eldest grandson was pitiful, so he wounded my eldest grandson. Before he left, he gave me three boxes of ointment, and asked me to apply it on my eldest grandson every morning and evening." The old woman replied. .

   "Then tell me where you can find a miracle doctor!" Cui He said anxiously.

   "My old lady doesn't know!" The old woman spread her hands.

   "You don't know how to find a genius doctor, and how did you know that you can go to Tongdetang to buy medicine?" Wei Qingwan asked.

   "Because the genius doctor said before leaving that if you don't have enough money, you can go to Tongdetang, and you can meet people with the method I just said. Then the genius doctor said that he would greet the guys inside in advance, and I don't need money."

  The old woman explained everything in detail, but what she said didn't help Wei Qingwan much.

   Wei Qingwan looked at the old woman, knowing that it would be useless to ask further: "Okay, you go back first."

   "Yes, yes." The old woman nodded repeatedly.

   Cui He reluctantly sent the old woman out of the back door, then turned around and left, not bothering to say a single polite word to the old woman.

  After Cui He left, the old woman groaned in the direction behind her: "You called me from such a long distance, asked me for a long time, and didn't let me drink a sip of tea, didn't even say thank you, how rude!"

   Immediately afterwards, the old woman smiled again: "But my old woman is here to complete the work Mr. Xu entrusted to me, so I don't care what your attitude is!"

   On the other side, after sending the old woman away, Wei Qingwan pondered for a long time, and decided to let Nanny Li go to the Tongde Hall in the provincial capital first to verify whether what the old woman said was true.
