"I understand. Let him rest assured." Du Wenxiu responded with a smile, but Du Wenchan spat at him again.

"Why do you need me to pass on everything you and your wife say? When you meet him, you can talk to him yourself." Du Wenchan scolded with a smile.

Du Wenxiu also found it funny for a moment, but he always felt a little depressed after getting up, as if he couldn't turn around.

After telling Du Wenchan, she hurried forward to feel the temperature of her forehead, worried that she had caught a cold. She tried to feel that it was fine, but she was still worried, so she asked her to sit aside and went to see a doctor after she was done.

"How can you be so delicate? Just keep busy. I'll go to Jishidi Hall over there to take a look."

Du Wenxiu turned around and went back to the house to get some silver and money, asked Du Wenchan to look after the shop, and then went out and walked towards the street.

Jishidiang was not far from the Lu family shop. It was right after you turned out of the alley and onto the main street. As Du Wenxiu was leaving the alley, he was suddenly knocked down by a group of people.

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry, are you okay, lady?" The man hurriedly reached out to help her up. Du Wenxiu waved her hands and stood up by herself, holding on to the wall.

"Why are you in such a hurry? Is there a ghost chasing you?" Du Wenxiu was knocked down and had nothing nice to say to him.

The man bowed repeatedly and said that he had made an appointment with good friends to go to the home of the local squire Mr. Wu to attend a meeting to select talents. As he could not afford a car and was afraid of being late, he bumped into Du Wenxiu in his anxiety.

Seeing his sincere attitude, Du Wenxiu didn't want to keep arguing with him. He said a few words to him and then let him go and left.

When they arrived at Jishiditang, there were people watching inside, so Du Wenxiu had to wait outside.

At this time, there were hurried footsteps outside the door, and several big men came in carrying a man on their backs. The man's face and body were covered in blood, which was dripping all the way. Du Wenxiu was frightened so much that he stepped back.

"Doctor, doctor, help!"

One of them cried out for a doctor, and Doctor Wang hurried out.

"This is caused by a knife or an axe. Who are you?"

Doctor Wang frowned and looked at the few people, but his hands were busy stopping the bleeding of the injured.

The man who came in carrying the injured person spoke up:

"We came from the city to collect the goods, but we didn't expect to encounter bandits. We had to fight for our lives to escape. Please save us, doctor. We will also report to the police."

This man spoke in an orderly manner and explained things clearly in just a few words. Du Wenxiu couldn't help but look at him twice.

There was a bloody stain on the back of the man's neck, and the clothes on his back were darker in color. His clothes were torn by a sharp weapon, revealing the scars on the flesh inside.

As if sensing someone was watching him, the man turned his head and looked at Du Wenxiu with a pair of bright eyes on his dirty face.

Du Wenxiu seemed frightened and took a few steps back and stood against the door.

"The injured person is bleeding too much. Hurry and carry him inside to stop the bleeding." Doctor Wang hurriedly told them to carry the injured person inside, and instructed his apprentice Sun Ling to treat the injuries of the other people.

He looked up and saw Du Wenxiu standing beside him. Just as he was about to ask a question, Du Wenxiu was very perceptive and waved his hand, saying:

"Doctor Wang, please take care of the most important matter concerning human life first. I can come back in a few days for this trivial matter."

Doctor Wang with his white beard nodded slightly, then ignored her and went on with his work.

Watching the apprentices cleaning up the bloodstains in the hall, Du Wenxiu felt that his presence was somewhat of a hindrance, so he turned around and left.

Although there were other medical clinics, only Doctor Wang's medical skills and kindness were most recognized by the common people. Moreover, he had been delayed for a long time and was worried about the things in the shop, so Du Wenxiu went back home.

I don't go out often on weekdays except for delivering goods, but this time I go out, it feels like everything happens.

On the short distance from the clinic to the shop, Du Wenxiu vaguely saw a familiar figure flash by.

"It looks like Qin Dingxiang..."

Du Wenxiu whispered to himself.

What Lu Fanghai said to her yesterday when he went home was too shocking. When she saw a figure that looked like Qin Dingxiang passing by, Du Wenxiu couldn't help but feel concerned.

Qin Dingxiang walked out of a rouge shop. Seeing that he couldn't catch up with her, Du Wenxiu decided to go to the shop to ask, so he walked over.

As soon as he stepped into the door, he saw several young women inside, dressed seductively, each with their own unique style. They surrounded the waiter and spoke sweetly to him, making him go around in circles.

There was an old procuress sitting next to him drinking tea. She looked up and saw Du Wenxiu coming in. She smiled softly and said in a loud voice:

"My daughters, hurry up and choose so that we can go back. We will go to the capital early tomorrow morning."

The girls all laughed and said to their mother, "Don't hurry me." But she was teasing the waiter and wanted to play with him for a while longer.

Seeing this, Du Wenxiu turned around and came out again. It seemed that the waiter had no time to pay attention to him.

But he was still worried about Qin Dingxiang, so he slowly walked home.

On the way, she kept thinking, was she seeing things wrong? There were women with similar figures in the world, and how could Qin Dingxiang afford to buy some rouge and powder?

Even when they arrived at the door of the shop, Du Wenxiu was still worried.

When Du Wenchan saw her coming back, she hurriedly asked how she was feeling and what the doctor said.

"Doctor Wang is too busy. I said I'll go another day."

Du Wenxiu smiled and told Du Wenchan what happened in the clinic, but she was unhappy when she heard it.

"Sister, you are confused. If you are not feeling well, you should go to another clinic. You can't just wait for Doctor Wang to be free. The doctor can wait, but the disease can't."

As she said this, she took off the apron around her waist and went to find a doctor.

Du Wenxiu hurriedly stopped her, saying that she had nothing to do at the moment and that maybe she felt dizzy because she went to bed late last night.

Du Wenchan looked at her face carefully and found it was indeed better than in the morning. She reminded her to tell her and see a doctor if she felt uncomfortable. Du Wenxiu smiled and agreed, then she let go of her hand.

Since Du Wenxiu had returned, Du Wenchan also went to the inner courtyard to cook. Not long after the two sisters had eaten, their eldest brother Du Wenshan came over and said that there was something going on at home and asked Du Wenchan to go back early.

"What's going on at home?"

Du Wenxiu was surprised. She had been thinking about Qin Dingxiang in her heart. Looking at Du Wenshan at this time, she couldn't help but have some indescribable thoughts in her heart.

Du Wenshan felt uneasy when she looked at him, and said impatiently:

"I didn't ask you to do that. It's not like a married girl has to worry so much. Anyway, it was her mother who asked her to go back. If she doesn't come back, you can handle it yourself."

After saying that, he just turned around and left.

The two sisters looked at each other. Du Wenxiu took her sister's hand, leaned against the door leading to the inner courtyard, and whispered to her:

"I'm calling you so hastily today. It can't be a good thing. Why don't I go and take a look. If there's nothing wrong, you can go back."

Du Wenchan looked embarrassed. She knew that something was wrong today. Nothing happened when she left home in the morning.

"If I go back late, my mother will get angry again. You are not feeling well today, so I should go back to take a look. If it is nothing important, I will come and tell you."

Du Wenxiu was worried about Qin Dingxiang. He was afraid that this vicious woman would harm him secretly, but he didn't dare to say anything.

She was afraid of telling Du Wenchan, and she was afraid that her tracks would be exposed when she returned, and she was afraid that something out of nothing would become something else.

Du Wenchan was worried that she was not feeling well and was tired, so she took off her apron, stuffed it into her arms, and went out.

Du Wenxiu had no choice but to chase after her and shout at her to be careful.

Du Wenchan responded loudly, and disappeared after turning a corner.
