The dim candlelight illuminated Liu Yuefu's face, flickering for a moment.

She walked to the desk, picked up the note, held it close to the candlelight and burned it.

As the candle flame engulfed the paper, it gradually turned black and yellow from the edges, and then turned into ashes and dissipated in the air, leaving no one knowing where it went.

It's time to let Wei Suxin see what Li Jianzhang is thinking.

Perhaps only by placing the cruel truth in front of her could she see Li Jianzhang's true face.

Liu Yuefu made up her mind, blew out the candle, and went to bed to rest.

Winter hunting is a good opportunity, Liu Yuefu thought secretly while lying on the bed. Her eyelids drooped and she fell into a deep sleep.

The next day, Qiu Tong came to Yuehuaju early in the morning.

"Madam, these past few days, whenever we proposed to purchase charcoal, others would offer a higher price by one cent. All the channels we already have won't sell us charcoal anymore. What should we do?" Qiu Tong frowned, looking anxious.

"Don't panic. How much has Wutan purchased now?" Liu Yuefu asked calmly.

"The grocery store currently has about 300 kilograms of charcoal." Qiu Tong replied.

"Are you sure the other party is targeting us intentionally?"

"Sure, it's not just one family. Every family has been like this for two consecutive days."

"Qiutong, don't panic. We will also raise the price. If they raise it by 10%, we will also raise it by 10%, but it must not exceed twice the current price of charcoal. Ask the merchant who the other party is." Liu Yuefu said after a little thought.

"Okay." Qiu Tong took the order and hurried back to the grocery store.

Liu Yuefu sat at the round table, chin resting on her hand, a figure flashed through her mind, it should be her. The red date and lotus seed soup last time seemed to have made her very angry. Kang Miaoqing, can't you hold it back? I should have thought of it earlier.

But where do you get the money?

Liu Yuefu thought that winter hunting was coming, and it was time to prepare. Liu Yuefu took Chuntao out to buy some food, seasonings, and other things needed for survival in the wild.

If there is something in her own shop, she will take it from her own shop and reimburse the old lady. Liu Yuefu no longer wants to give foolishly to the Li family like in her previous life.

Liu Yuefu went into the grain store and bought necessities such as millet, noodles, and salt. After paying the bill, Liu Yuefu asked the shopkeeper to send it to Li's house. With the receipt, she just stepped over the threshold of the grain store and saw three men supporting a woman in green clothes opposite. The woman looked like she was weakly falling on one of the men in blue clothes, and was supported by another man in purple clothes. There was also a man in black clothes who got on the carriage in front of him. The three men were about to leave.

Liu Yuefu took several steps forward and said, "Put her down! Who are you to her?"

The man who got on the carriage leaned out and said, "I am her lover. We are engaged. She was happy today and drank a little too much. She is drunk. I asked my friends to take her home."

"Nonsense! If you don't let her go, I will report her to the police! It will not end well then!" Liu Yuefu said loudly with full of momentum.

The purple-clothed man who was supporting the woman frowned and said angrily, "Young lady, stop meddling in other people's business and get out of the way!"

Liu Yuefu still stood in front of them, "This Madam Wei from Ruyifang and I have a history, I will never give in!"

The man in blue said slowly, "Young lady, please don't refuse my toast and drink the wine for punishment."

Liu Yuefu was not afraid at all. She looked the man in blue in the face and said, "You are the ones who will be punished if you don't accept my toast. If you don't let go of Madam Wei, the servants in my carriage will report to the authorities. This place is not far from the government office."

"This is in broad daylight, on the street, and you dare to kidnap a decent girl. Do you still have any respect for the law?" Liu Yuefu shouted loudly.

The pedestrians around were attracted by Liu Yuefu's voice and looked over.

"Everyone, come and have a look! Someone is robbing a woman on the street! Come and have a look!" Chuntao shouted loudly.

The purple-clothed man didn't care about helping Wei Suxin, and hurried forward to cover Chuntao's mouth. Chuntao struggled hard and bit the man hard. The man let go of her hand in pain, "Are you born in the year of the dog?"

Chun Tao continued to shout, "They are robbing me, they are robbing me!"

"Shut up, shut up!" The man in purple stepped forward to cover Chuntao's mouth again, but saw a crowd gradually surrounding them.

On the other side, Liu Yuefu was still confronting the man in blue.

The man in black in the car saw the old men, women and men on the street gradually gathered around him and said, "Put it down, let's go!"

The purple-clothed man and the blue-clothed man reluctantly put Wei Suxin down, "Brother, this..."

"Shut up and get in the car!"

"Yes Yes Yes."

When the black-clothed man turned around, he glared at Liu Yuefu fiercely and snorted coldly, "Let's go!"

Liu Yuefu glared back without showing any weakness.

Seeing the group leaving, Liu Yuefu and Chuntao hurriedly helped Wei Suxin up from the ground.

The crowd that had gradually gathered around gradually dispersed when they saw that there was nothing exciting to watch.

"Madam, Madam Wei has not even woken up after falling to the ground..."

"Chun Tao, get on the carriage first." Liu Yuefu said.

The two men helped Wei Suxin get on their carriage, "Sir, let's go to the nearest clinic."

"Okay." The driver whipped the horse-drawn carriage and it started moving slowly.

After a while, they saw a clinic and the carriage stopped.

When getting off the carriage, Chuntao got off by herself first, and then Liu Yuefu helped Wei Suxin out of the carriage. Chuntao waited under the carriage and helped Wei Suxin. Only then did Liu Yuefu get off the carriage by herself.

The three of them entered the clinic. The clinic was simply furnished, with medicine cabinets densely packed on one wall. A young man was carefully packing herbs in paper at the counter, and an old woman was standing in front of him. Next to the young man was an old man with gray hair and gray clothes, who was writing something with a pen. He heard the noise and looked over.

When the old man in gray saw the three people, he walked out from behind the counter.

I think this old man in gray should be the doctor here.

Liu Yuefu shouted, "Doctor, please take a look at her, what's wrong with her?"

The old man in gray stroked his goatee and said, "Ladies, please put this lady on the bed over here, and I will take a look at her."

Liu Yuefu and Chuntao put Wei Suxin on a couch inside.

The doctor came closer to Wei Suxin, looked at her, flipped over her eyelids, and found that she seemed to have fainted.

He sat down, put down the pulse pillow, covered the patient with a white gauze and began to take the patient's pulse.

It was over in a moment.

"Doctor, what happened to her? Is she poisoned?" Liu Yuefu asked.

"This lady has been given a heavy dose of knockout drug. Just give her a bowl of thick licorice juice," said the doctor.

"The sooner you take the medicine, the better. I'll go prepare the medicine for this woman right now." The doctor continued.

"Thank you." Liu Yuefu said.

After the doctor finished speaking, he left and went to the counter. Chuntao followed him and found the waiter to pay the consultation fee and medicine.

After a while, a bowl of thick licorice juice was ready and brought over by the shop assistant.

Liu Yuefu personally fed Wei Suxin mouthful by mouthful with a spoon.

After drinking a bowl, Wei Suxin woke up after a while.

"Liu Yuefu?" Wei Suxin looked around again, "Why am I in the clinic?"

"You were drugged. I happened to run into you when I came out of the grain store."

Wei Suxin's mind was still a little dizzy. What was there to not understand? It was those three people and there was something in the wine.

"Thank you." Wei Suxin said sincerely to Liu Yuefu.

If it weren't for Madam Liu, I would be...
