She quickly washed her face, and then grabbed Hong Xiangjun and headed outside.
Haoming came out from inside the house. Hong Xiangjun glanced at Haoming subconsciously and then couldn’t help feeling a sense of regret.
The scar on Haoming’s face was gone, ah! She actually quite liked the scar on Haoming’s face, because every time she saw it, it reminded her of a man she missed deeply...
After so many years of separation, she wondered if that person was well.
Her expression grew dark, and then Hong Xiangjun forced herself to cheer up. She pulled on Sister Xiao Dong, chatting about this and that.
She knew the scar on Haoming’s face had disappeared because of the Scar Removal Ointment, and she was very curious about it. She thought it could be quite profitable and started to mull over the idea of convincing Sister Xiao Dong to make a big venture with her. However, Shujun interjected, "Master Hong, I’m really sorry, but your plans might have to be abandoned."
Shujun smiled and said, "The Scar Removal Ointment prepared by Baobao is truly miraculous. After we return home from this trip, my brothers are planning to start a business with it."
Hong Xiangjun was disappointed but also understood the principle that one should not let water flow into others’ fields. It seemed that she couldn’t take advantage of this opportunity after all.
"Alright, if there’s anything you need, just tell me. I’ll definitely help if I can."
After that, Hong Xiangjun, Dong Huiying, Liang Shujun, Liang Haoming, Liang Yuening, and the others headed straight to an herbal medicine shop where they met with a merchant.
Dong Huiying checked the quality of the herbs, which were all excellent, and the warehouse was full of them. She quickly negotiated a price with the merchant, and then had Shujun purchase a horse-drawn cart, spending all the money she had previously earned on the black market.
However, after all this spending, her once plump purse had become thin again.
The next day, when the group boarded the horse-drawn cart pulling the herbs back to Taihang Town, Dong Huiying was left with only a few taels of silver pieces in her pocket. Even the dozens of taels Haoming had earned on the black market had all been invested in these herbs, and they even had to borrow more than sixty taels from Hong Xiangjun.
Before departing, Shujun had specially gone to the Li Mansion to say goodbye to Young Master Li of the Li family.
Young Master Li found it hard to let go of Shujun. To him, Third Brother Liang was like a mentor and friend, and even a brother. He had learned a lot from Third Brother Liang over this period, and now Third Brother Liang was actually leaving. Taihang Town was too far from Jun City, and he had no idea how long it would be before they could meet again. He even shed a few tears.
Unable to stand Young Master Li’s reluctance to part, Shujun invited him to visit her home when he had time and promised to write to him after she got home. Only then did Young Master Li reluctantly and tearfully see Third Brother Liang off.
The horse-drawn cart gradually got farther away, and several days passed in a blink.
Within the territory of Black Wind Camp, a homing pigeon suddenly flew by.
Big Boss Su Lang, holding the pigeon in a hurry, found the Master, "Master, look, isn’t this the pigeon you raised?"
The Master, wearing a mask, adjusted his sleeve with his left hand before taking the small bamboo tube tied to the pigeon’s leg. He then poured out a rolled up piece of paper from inside.
He unfolded it and was slightly stunned.
Anxiously, Su Lang licked his lips, "Master, are you leaving?"
The Master nodded, "I should return for a while. Don’t worry too much, even though the Imperial Court has been agitated lately. I have already chosen a new location before. Once I leave, take the people and move to Qingfeng Prefecture. After that, do as I told you before. Try not to be too ostentatious and avoid being wiped out by the imperial soldiers."
