That wasn't even the most important thing. The most crucial part was the other medicine Yun Ying was holding—the one that could save her life. If Juhua had known this, she probably would have rallied the entire village to chase after her, to capture that jealous, wretched girl even if it killed them.
But in this world, there are no "what ifs."
Juhua's heart felt heavy, as if she had missed something crucial. She sighed quietly, then washed and steamed a few sausages.
Qingmu had called Zhang Huai over to taste the sausages so they could then go negotiate a price with the Chen Family.
By the time she finished cooking, Qingmu and Zhang Huai had returned. Unsurprisingly, they hadn't seen the girl on horseback; she had long since vanished without a trace. When they asked the villagers, they said her horse had bolted out of the village like a gust of wind. By the time they gave chase, all they saw was a cloud of dust.
