Chapter 100: Getting the Surgical Knife

ght, Mo Yunjing would actually retort with such a sentence.His expression stiffened slightly, but he still nodded with gritted teeth and said, "Yes, if His Royal Highness the King of Beijang insists o...Is An Xuetang taking a break

Cui heard these words, her eyes lit up, and she hurried home.

"Mother, Mother, I have something to discuss with you." Cui ran excitedly into Wang's room.

Wang was just having a nap after her meal when Cui came in and disturbed her. She immediately scowled, "What's all the noise What are you making such a fuss about"

"Mother, I... I thought of a way to deal with the security situation."

Wang narrowed her eyes, "What method"

"Listen, I just saw An Xuetang's lover. She actually brought him back to that cabin."

"What" Wang shi jumped up excitedly, staring at Cui shi. "Is this really true"

"I really, truly saw it with my own eyes. It wasn't just me; several old women in the village saw it too."

Wang's narrowed eyes glinted with calculation, "If An Xuetang really brought a man back... then things would be easy to handle!"

Wang and Cui's eyes glinted with malice, calculating something unknown, their faces twisted into sinister grins.

An Xuetang, however, was unaware that she had been targeted by someone who wanted to cause trouble. Even if she knew, she wouldn't take these people seriously at all.

She entered the city now. Today, it was eerily deserted, as if something had happened.

Occasionally, you'd see officials from the government running down the street, as if they were looking for something everywhere.

An Xuetang became vigilant. She quietly walked up to a stall owner, "Boss, why is it so deserted in the city today"

The stall owner sighed and shook his head, saying softly, "Girl, can you see all the government officials on the street"

"Well, what are they doing"

"I heard they're looking for someone, making quite a big deal out of it. They're looking for a man, I think. See how they always stop every passing man to compare them to the picture."

"Doesn't the boss know why they are looking for the man in the portrait"

"Well, that's something we ordinary people wouldn't know. But it doesn't seem safe in the city today, so maybe you should head home early."

An Xuetang smiled. "Okay, thank you for reminding me, boss."

After saying that, she nodded in greeting and left. As she passed those government officials, she glanced at the portraits once more. The people in the paintings did indeed resemble Jiang Qingyang somewhat.

This is most likely about Jiang Qingyang.

An Xuetang went to several apothecaries. Unconvinced, she continued to ask if they had any Beimu flowers.

After last night, Mo Yunjing's poisoning symptoms worsened. If she doesn't antidote him, he won't be able to hold on until Yunliu returns.

This cloud six over there also doesn't know how the situation is. He has been out for over a month.

Still, An Xue Tang was disappointed. She had visited every pharmacy in the city, big and small, but there was no such thing as a貝母 flower to be found.

An Xuetang went to the blacksmith's forge disappointed. She asked the blacksmith to make a surgical knife for her, and it was finally done. Looking at her own surgical knife, a glimmer of joy finally appeared in An Xuetang's eyes.

She didn't expect the blacksmith's skill to be so exquisite. The surgical knife he crafted was almost identical to the one she used in her past life.

"Well, young lady, are you satisfied" the blacksmith said confidently.

"Very good, very good." An Xuetang praised without reservation. "This is just like the sword I want."

After she finished speaking, she paid the remaining four taels of silver and gave the blacksmith five more taels. "I need another set of these knives," she said, "Could you please make me another set, master"

The blacksmith immediately broke into a smile. “Of course,”

With a surgical knife in hand, An Xue Tang went to the butcher shop and bought pork. The butcher saw An Xue Tang arrive and excitedly ran out, "Miss, you're finally here."

"!" An Xuetang blinked, "You...you have something to do with me"

The butcher shook his head shyly, cleared his throat and said, "No... it's nothing."

"Why are you so excited" An Xuetang thought.

"I came for ten jin of lean meat and ten jin of fatty pork."

The butcher was shocked, “Girl, you must have struck it rich”

"No, I bought it for someone else. Please hurry, I need to go back early."

The butcher nodded repeatedly, "Good, right away."

After cutting the meat, he also put a pork femur into An Xuetang's bowl. "This is for you, miss,"

An Xuetang didn't want pork ribs today, but the butcher had already prepared them, so she could only pay an extra ten wen.

She has no relationship with the butcher. She wouldn't take anything from him for free.

Having paid, An Xuetang hired a carriage to return to the village directly. However, this time she did not allow the carriage to enter the village.

As she reached the village entrance, she stepped out of the carriage and prepared to walk home.

Her backpack was so full that she walked a little slower than usual.

She had just reached the end of the village when several women suddenly came running towards her.

There are also Wang and Cui families here, who can be said to have led the people.

An Xuetang frowned, her eyes narrowed as she stood still, waiting for them to approach.

"An Xuetang, where are you going" Wang asked sharply.

An Xuetang gave her a look that could only be described as, "Are you stupid" "Where I go has nothing to do with you. Don't forget that I've already cut ties with the An family. I don't need to report to you on anything I do, right"

"An Xue Tang, you shameless bitch! You dare to bring a wild man home Don't you know that this will get you divorced by the Yun family And you, a woman like you, with your wanton ways, will be drowned!"

Wild man

An Xuetang was taken aback, then she immediately reacted, they couldn't be talking about Jiang Qingyang, could they!

It must be Jiang Qingyang, An Xuetang cursed Jiang Qingyang in her heart, this guy is really something, can't he hide himself well

She just has to cause trouble!

"Look, you guys, she's got so many good things in her basket!" One woman glanced at An Xuetang's basket and exclaimed in surprise.

As soon as they heard it was something good, Cui and Wang's faces immediately lit up with greed. The two of them rushed over, acting as if they were about to take everything out of An Xuetang's backpack for themselves.

An Xuetang shifted to the side, "You're blocking me, for what To tell me there's a wild man hiding in my house"

"An Xuetang, don't think we can't deal with you. Do you know that what you did hiding a wild man can be used to drown you" Wang said softly in An Xuetang's ear.

An Xuetang narrowed her eyes. “So what”

"So, as long as you give us the antidote, we promise to help you cover this up. Otherwise, none of us will live!"

So that's what they had in mind all along!

An Xue Tang sneered and then unceremoniously slapped Wang shi across the face.

"Ah!" Wang shi suddenly couldn't help but scream when she was hit.

Cui was also startled, she hadn't even had time to retreat when An Xue Tang's hand swept over again, landing a slap on her face.

She didn't hold back at all, the slap was loud and startling.

The other women hurried back two steps.
