Chapter 37

Ji Jiu takes the mother and daughter to the drug store and tells Xiao Guo. Xiao Guo hurriedly led her into the side door and immediately went after the boss.

"Respect your boss. I came to sell herbs to stop bleeding as usual. As for Aunt Qiao and Uncle Yu, my daughter, from now on they will be the ones selling for me."

 Ji Jiu saw Boss Yuan smiling and greeting him immediately.

"Oh, you don't want to come to me anymore, little girl? That's why I had someone else take my place."

 Boss Yuan complained that he was not serious.

"Who said that, Uncle Boss? I just have things to do. So I had Aunt Yu and Sister Yu come to sell. Besides, how could I entrust them to you? If I have free time, I will definitely come visit you."

"Alright, I'm just teasing you. Xiao Guo took all the herbs and weighed them first. You all come sit and rest first."

 While waiting for Xiao Guo to weigh in, Boss Yuan told Ji Jiu about Prince Jun's condition. Aunt Qiao and Uncle Yu didn't dare sit with them, so they had no problem talking.

 Boss Yuan said that soon there should be a big battle on the border. Medicine to stop bleeding is therefore very necessary. The army had been collecting medicine from all over the region for several days. It was good that Ji Jiu had brought a lot of medicinal herbs today. It is expected that the medicine can be made and sent to the army within two days.

 Ji Jiu listened and told Boss Yuan that he would try to get it for him again. She was just slow in the drying process, which took several days. The boss understood well. He said that whenever he had it he would bring it. After all, this big war shouldn't end quickly. And the medicine must be used continuously for at least one month.

 Ji Jiu listened and tried to come up with a plan for Aunt Qiao so that the medicinal herbs could be delivered in time to meet the army's needs. She'll tell the mother and daughter tomorrow.

 Xiao Guo finished weighing himself and came to inform the boss. All of the herbs this time weighed 420 pounds, probably because there were so many on the cart and in the other two baskets. The boss hurriedly told her to wait before he went to bring the money. After waiting for a long time, the boss brought 4 taels, 200 baht, and gave it to Ji Jiu. She thanked him and asked to leave the boss to go buy some fresh produce.

 Leave the pharmacy with an empty cart and basket. Ji Jiu gave all the money to Aunt Qiao, and today she only brought 5 taels of food along with 758 scraps. Auntie Qiao thought about refusing this money, but Ji Jiu refused. She said that if the mother and daughter didn't accept her then they wouldn't have to live with her anymore. This made Auntie Qiao and Uncle Yu shed tears and then sobbed, thanking Ji Jiu and Gabe. Take the money as Ji Jiu wants.

 The three of them arrived at the big market in no time. Two mothers and children's eyes were swollen from crying earlier. It made Ji Jiu afraid that people would find out that she was bullying them both. But Aunt Qiao told her not to worry. The two women would explain themselves if someone actually asked.

 Suspicious Ji Jiu immediately invites Aunt Qiao to go shopping so she can hurry home. Aunt Qiao asked Ji Jiu as usual. Ji Jiu cooperated well, concluding various menus, making little Uncle Yu burst into laughter. Aunt Qiao quickly ordered everything. Ji Jiu followed along and paid until Aunt Qiao said that the items were complete.

 After leaving the market, Aunt Qiao invited Ji Jiu to go buy more condiments. It's almost gone now. Ji Jiu didn't object. Follow each other to the grocery store. Including the cost of all the merchandise today, Ji Jiu paid 3 taels and 200 baht for a week's worth of food. She didn't consider it a lot. Only Aunt Qiao and Uncle Yu looked at each other and could only sweat. They looked at Ji Jiu who was still In a good mood, he understood that this young master was not really worried about money, so they walked together dragging the cart back to the village.

 They returned home just as the sun was about to set. Aunt Qiao hurriedly lit a lamp to warm up the food, and also arranged the things she bought for her to cook the next day. Ah Yu also helped. Ji Jiu took the remaining money and put it into the account as usual. When finished, she left the room and ate together.
