Chapter 243

The next morning, Qiao Xi counted the silver notes she had received from Yin Wanping yesterday and found that the amount was not small.

This is just the beginning. If all the pills she develops can be sold in the future, the income will be enormous.

It won't be long before she becomes a wealthy woman in Tianle Country.

The more she thought about it, the happier she became. Qiao Xi packed almost all the pills that could fit in her space and went out without having breakfast.

"Madam, why are you here so early today? Our boss is having breakfast. I wonder if you have had it yet?"

It would have been fine if he hadn't mentioned it, but after he did, Qiao Xi felt a little hungry.

But she was too embarrassed to say she hadn't eaten, fearing that people would think she was too stingy and even wanted to eat breakfast for free.

In fact, since Xu Yi was not at home, there was no one to cook. And since she was anxious to deliver the medicine, she gave up the idea of ​​going to the restaurant to eat something.

But if she didn't eat something, she was afraid that her stomach would growl and she would be embarrassed.

And she is not someone who is willing to put herself in a difficult position.

After thinking for a while, Qiao Xi asked the pharmacist to bring a pot of good tea and two plates of snacks, and asked the pharmacist to tell the shopkeeper that she was not in a hurry and he could enjoy his breakfast.

The little medicine boy knew that the shopkeeper had made a small profit recently because of the medicine sent by this lady, and he was very happy, so he didn't dare to neglect Qiao Xi in the slightest.

He first led Qiao Xi into the inner room, and then, following her instructions, served a pot of good tea and two plates of snacks.

Qiao Xi was enjoying herself with snacks and tea, so comfortable that she didn't even notice when Yin Wanping came over until she heard a few coughs.

"Has Manager Yin finished his breakfast?"

Qiao Xi was not embarrassed at all when she was seen being at ease. Instead, she put down the snacks in her hand with a calm look and stood up to greet Yin Wanping.

Yin Wanping was a sociable person, and after just a few words with Qiao Xi, the two of them had no reservations and were like old friends who had known each other for more than ten years.

……

By the time Qiao Xi had explained all the medicines and their effects clearly and helped Yin Wanping record them, it was already noon.

Yin Wanping was also a man of good sense. When he knew it was almost noon, he ordered the pharmacy to prepare lunch for the guests.

Qiao Xi didn't hesitate and left after lunch.

After a busy morning, she returned home and took a short rest. When she woke up, she found the house was so quiet that she felt a little uncomfortable.

In the past, even if Xu Yi concentrated on studying, he at least had someone to talk to. But now, apart from going out to find someone to talk to, he can only talk to himself.

Today is the second day of Xu Yi's exam. By the end of the afternoon tomorrow, he will have finished the exam and can go home.

Finally I can have something to eat.

To pass the time, Qiao Xi almost stayed in the space to develop new prescriptions.

When you are thirsty, drink the stream water in the space. When you are hungry, eat some snacks bought from outside.

Soon, the third day of the provincial examination was coming to an end.

In order to show her concern for her brother-in-law as a sister-in-law, Qiao Xi chose the right time and went to the place where she had sent Xu Yi to wait for him to come out.

When she arrived, she found some people already waiting at the door. It seemed that she hadn't arrived too early.

After waiting for about two quarters of an hour, Qiao Xi suddenly heard a few bells ringing. After the bells rang, there were voices around, and then the voices gradually became louder.

"Someone's coming out! Someone's coming out!"

Then, someone shouted.

Hearing the shouting, the people who were scattered everywhere suddenly gathered at the door as if they had discussed it beforehand. Qiao Xi was not paying attention and was almost pushed down by the crowd.

She tried hard to control her body shape, and at the same time played to her own strengths, taking advantage of any opportunity she saw, and finally managed to escape from the crowd.

Looking at the crowd that was blocking the way like a wall, Qiao Xi smacked her lips and thought: Is it really necessary to push forward so hard? The people inside will come out anyway.

Although Qiao Xi was standing at the outermost edge, she chose the most conspicuous position so that Xu Yi could see her at a glance as soon as he came out.

Just like that, she stood at the very outside, waiting from when there were many people, to when there were fewer people, and finally, when almost no one came out, and the people gathered at the door slowly dispersed, and she still didn't see the person she was waiting for.

By the end, it was almost dark, and Qiao Xi found that there were not many people left except her.

"Hey, old man, why hasn't our An'er come out yet? Could something have happened?"

A middle-aged woman asked the middle-aged man beside her.

"Don't think too much, maybe they haven't packed up yet. Let's wait a little longer!"

As he spoke, the man patted the woman's hand to comfort her.

Qiao Xi vaguely heard the word "An'er" and then realized that not only did Xu Yi not come out, but she also didn't see Han Yun'an come out.

Thinking of this, she looked carefully at the two people who were talking and they looked familiar.

She pursed her lips, turned her eyes slightly, then walked forward and spoke politely:

"Excuse me, both of you. Excuse me, do you know Han Yun'an?"

The middle-aged couple heard Qiao Xi's voice and turned to look at her.

When she saw her face, the woman frowned slightly but didn't say anything.

The middle-aged man first looked at Qiao Xi, and then asked:

"Girl, you are—"

Qiao Xi was afraid that they would think too much, so she hurriedly explained with a smile:

"Oh, I'm Xu Yi's sister-in-law. Xu Yi and Han Yun'an are classmates and good friends."

Hearing this, the man nodded in understanding. The couple then let down their guard and greeted Qiao Xi with a smile.

"Hey, didn't Xu Yi come out either?"

"No!" Qiao Xi shook her head.

"Did we not see them both come out?"

The woman was still guessing.

"No, I've been watching for the people coming out. If the two of them really come out, I won't miss them."

Josie's tone was firm.

The main reason was that she had just quietly asked the navigation, and the navigation told her that Xu Yi was still inside.

"But if he didn't leave, why hasn't he come out yet? There's no one at the door. We can ask what's going on inside."

The woman began to become anxious.

She kept walking to the door and looking inside.

But no one came out.

After waiting for a long time without anyone showing up, Qiao Xi began to get worried.

Nothing could have really happened. If something had happened, it wouldn't be so quiet!

Just as she was wondering, she finally saw someone coming.

However, looking from a distance, the figure was neither Xu Yi's nor Han Yun'an's.

When the man came closer and she saw his clothes clearly, Qiao Xi realized that he was an official from the government office.

She wanted to go forward and ask what was going on inside, but Han Yunan's family was quicker than her.

"Excuse me, sir, are all the people inside out?"

"this--"

The officer in question stopped and glanced at the couple in front of him. His eyes turned slightly cold. After a moment's hesitation, he continued, "Almost everyone has left. Whose family are you?"

"Han Yun'an!"

"I am Xu Yi's family!"

Qiao Xi also stepped forward.

Unexpectedly, after hearing the names Han Yun'an and Xu Yi, the officer's eyes became even colder than before, and he even snorted coldly.

Seeing the man's unfriendly expression, Qiao Xi's heart couldn't help but skip a beat, and a bad premonition came to her mind.
