"Haven't you prepared alcohol that can reduce wound infection? Isn't that enough?" Doctor Hua has not yet realized Chu Ci's intention.

Chu Ci chuckled: "Alcohol can only reduce infection, but if the wound is large and deep, alcohol will not be very effective."

Doctor Hua's eyes suddenly lit up: "Ah Ci, do you have a solution?"

Chu Ci nodded, then shook his head.

Doctor Hua became even more anxious: "Do you know or not?"

"It can be sutured with catgut, but..." Chu Ci said it out loud this time, but stopped halfway.

"But what?" At this moment, Doctor Hua wished he could pry Chu Ci's mouth open.

"I only know a general idea, and the equipment required for sewing wounds is relatively high. But Uncle Tianji and Senior Gudu were sent out by me as soon as they arrived." Chu Ci felt a little embarrassed when he said this.

Doctor Hua was still interested: "It's not like they won't come back. You should sort out the method of sewing the wound first, and I'll see how confident you are."

This time Chu Ci answered very straightforwardly: "Okay, I will report everything I know to Master when I go back tonight."

But he was too straightforward, which made Doctor Hua realize that something was wrong. "Did you intend to use the suture technique to fool me, your master, from the beginning?"

Can Chu Ci admit it? Of course not. "No, I was planning to study it secretly. I didn't expect..."

"Didn't expect that I, an old man, would target you because of a prescription?" Doctor Hua automatically added the rest of the words to help Chu Ci.

Chu Ci laughed dryly when he heard this: "Master, you have to be more careful about Niuniu's mother."

Doctor Hua knew Chu Ci was trying to change the subject, so he didn't expose him: "It's one thing. You've fallen in love with that little girl, right? Just follow her when the time comes."

After hearing what Doctor Hua said, Chu Ci felt a little embarrassed.

The next day, he compiled some prescriptions for qi deficiency, blood deficiency, and both qi and blood deficiency and sent them over.

Doctor Hua was very happy, and he stayed in his yard for several days making medicine and researching prescriptions.

Chu Ci continued to be busy with the "pre-marriage training". Poor Fan Jingrui, before at least they could chat for a few words at night. Now Chu Ci came home every day and fell asleep as soon as he was tired.

So Fan Jingrui couldn't help but wonder, if this continued, Chu Ci would forget about her husband.

At this moment, Duan Tianji rushed back with his father Duan Weihe.

Father Duan was also impatient. As soon as he arrived, he took Duan Tianji to find Chu Ci and said, "Madam Fan, as long as the Fan family does not rebel, I, Duan Weihe, will protect the Fan family in the future. Madam, please feel free to ask for any other conditions. As long as you can give us some alcohol and potatoes for the Zhennan Army, that will be fine."

Seemingly reckless, but extremely sensible.

He is worthy of being a military leader.

But he never expected it!

Chu Ci did not follow his suggestion and said, "Uncle Duan, what are you talking about? It is my honor to do something for heroes like you who defend our country. I don't need any conditions, as long as you can guarantee to pay off the money."

"So simple?" Duan Weihe didn't believe that Chu Ci would be so selfish.

"Not really." Chu Ci smiled a little embarrassedly, but did not hide it: "I am planning to open a women's college, and all future cooperation with the Zhennan Army will be under the name of the women's college. I wonder if Uncle Duan is willing?"

"Girls' college? A place specifically for daughters to go to school?" Duan Weihe couldn't believe what he heard.

Chu Ci nodded and asked again: "That's right. Uncle Duan, are you willing?"

Duan Weihe thought for a moment, but couldn't figure out what the connection was between their Zhennan Army and the Women's College.

But he would never let go of the fat meat in his mouth: "I promise. How much alcohol can you provide us in a year?"

"Two hundred pounds." Chu Ci said, deliberately raising two fingers and shaking them in front of Duan Weihe's eyes.

Duan Weihe was almost knocked unconscious. He had asked his son before coming here, and he thought that alcohol was hard to come by, so he thought that 50 kilograms would be good. He didn't expect it to be four times as much.

He turned to look at his silly son, who was also surprised. He knew that his son had also been fooled.

If it were someone else, Duan Wei and Gao Di would have taught her a lesson. But Chu Ci was not only a member of the Fan family, but more importantly, she not only helped her niece, but was also the lifesaver of her stupid son.

"What about potatoes?" Duan Weihe simply skipped the alcohol and talked about potatoes.

"I can't give you much." Compared to his generosity with alcohol, Chu Ci can be described as stingy when it comes to potatoes.

But is Duan Weihe someone who gives up easily? "How much can I give?"

"Just enough seeds for ten acres of land." Although there were plenty of potatoes in Chu Ci's space, it would not be difficult for her to take out a few thousand if she wanted to. But being too conspicuous was not a good thing.

"Ten acres, isn't that too little? How about twenty acres at a flat price?" Duan Weihe doubled the price as soon as he opened his mouth.

Duan Tianji watched Chu Ci and his father go back and forth, neither of them wanted to give in, and neither of them wanted to suffer a loss. He just wanted to stay far away, as far away as possible.

"No." Chu Ci gathered without thinking.

Seeing that Chu Ci refused to give in, Duan Weihe simply risked his dignity and started to act pitiful: "My niece, your uncle Duan is in such a difficult situation!"

The corners of Chu Ci's mouth twitched. Seeing that Chu Ci would not give in, Duan Weihe simply opened his throat and howled:

"As soon as I was transferred here, there were a bunch of people waiting to see me make a fool of myself. I finally waited for a chance to turn things around, but I didn't expect that my own relatives were unwilling to help!"

"Listen, the howling is really unpleasant. I can give you five more acres at most." Chu Ci, for the sake of his own ears, promised half more as soon as he opened his mouth.

Duan Weihe also stopped while he was ahead.

After finishing the business, Chu Ci thought of Chu Ling'er who had sneaked into the Duan family, and he rarely said anything, "Uncle Duan, how long has it been since you wrote to your family?"

Duan Weihe didn't think Chu Ci would ask this for no reason, so he asked, "What happened in the capital?"

Chu Ci did not answer, but asked: "Uncle Duan, do you know my background?"

Duan Weihe was too busy with his work every day, so how could he possibly listen to gossips from thousands of miles away? So he shook his head.

Upon seeing this, Duan Tianji finally found an opportunity for himself to shine, and quickly whispered to his father the grudge between Chu Ci and Chu Ling'er.

Duan Weihe had a general understanding of Chu Ling'er.

Chu Ci then leisurely dropped a bomb on the Duan family father and son: "Chu Ling'er is now called Duan Ling'er. She is now Uncle Duan's daughter in name only, and Uncle Tianji's sister who is not related by blood."

"Are you telling the truth?" "Where did you get this news?" The father and son spoke at the same time, but their focus was completely different.
