Lord, give up! Madam has too many vests

Chapter 397 1 Prescriptions

"As far as I know, President Liu has already met with her."

Bai Xiaoyu looked at Yan Xue with a forced smile, her tone carrying a hint of deliberate probing.

Yan Xue's face instantly darkened, and a flash of jealousy crossed her eyes.

No wonder Liu Jinnian has been getting colder and colder to her lately, barely even saying a few words. It turns out it's because Yan Lan is back, and the two of them have already met!

"You just came here to talk nonsense to me?" Yan Xue suppressed her anger, her tone full of impatience. She reached for her bag and was about to get up. "If there's nothing else, I'll be leaving now."

She couldn't wait a moment longer; she had to find Liu Jinnian immediately and get to the bottom of things.

But as soon as she took a step, Bai Xiaoyu grabbed her wrist.

"Sister Yanxue, don't be in such a hurry to leave." Bai Xiaoyu immediately dropped her mocking look and quickly put on a pitiful expression.

"I want you to help me find a job. As you know, Yan Lan is back, and President Shen is going to jail again. My daughter and I will soon be completely abandoned by the Qin family. We can't just sit around and do nothing until we run out of money and can't even afford to eat, can we?"

Yan Xue forcefully shook off her hand, her tone even more impatient: "No matter what the Qin family is like, they wouldn't refuse to pay child support, would they? Besides, what can you possibly do?"

"Didn't I help out in the state capital before? I have some work experience, and besides, I graduated from a prestigious university."

Bai Xiaoyu hurriedly added, fearing that Yan Xue would refuse, and quickly took out a few photos from her bag and handed them over, "Do you think you could help me find another job there?"

Seeing that Yan Xue didn't speak immediately, she leaned forward again, lowered her voice even further, and said it with a hint of seeking credit.

“I specifically hired a private investigator to follow Yan Lan, and these photos are the evidence.”

If you find it useful, I can also send you a copy of her schedule for the rest of the trip.

Yan Xue glanced down at the photo, her gaze suddenly freezing.

In the photo, Yan Lan and Liu Jinnian indeed entered the police station one after the other, and the picture was taken clearly.

She held the photo in her hand, remained silent for a moment, and finally spoke: "Wait for me outside the prefectural government office tomorrow at noon."

The next morning, after dropping Chaochao off at kindergarten, Yan Lan went to find Liu Guoshou.

Liu Guoshou's old house is hidden in an alley, with green tiles and white walls. Two red lanterns hang at the door. Pushing open the carved wooden door, you can see several osmanthus trees planted in the courtyard.

"Master!" Liu Guoshou was watering the osmanthus tree when he saw Yan Lan walk into the courtyard. He immediately rushed over to greet her, his voice full of joy.

"How could I let you visit me in person? I was planning to come see you in a few days when the clinic is less busy."

Liu Guoshou looked excited.

"I just came to see you and ask about the matter I entrusted to you before."

Yan Lan smiled and waved her hand, then walked to the stone table next to her and sat down.

Liu Guoshou leaned forward and lowered his voice, his tone full of excitement: "By the way, there's been news about that ancient prescription you asked me to find!"

Yan Lan's relaxed expression instantly turned serious. She sat up slightly, her eyes full of anticipation: "Tell me in detail."

"I asked several old friends in the industry and visited many old pharmacies before finally finding a clue."

This recipe has appeared before.

Liu Guoshou paused, his tone becoming increasingly solemn, "It is said that this formula is extremely rare. When used in ordinary times, it can gradually regulate the internal organs and strengthen the body. It is especially suitable for someone like Chaochao, who is born with a weak constitution. Even more amazing is the rumor that it has the effect of bringing the dead back to life, pulling those who are on the verge of death back from the brink of death!"

"However, many people also believe that the prescription is most likely fake."

Liu Guoshou frowned, his tone full of difficulty, "After all these years, no one has actually seen the actual prescription."

As one of the few people Yan Lan could trust in this city, he knew better than anyone that Yan Lan was so persistent in finding this prescription, mostly for Xiao Chaochao's health.

But Xiao Chaochao was born with congenital deficiencies. It was too far-fetched to completely get rid of the disease with a prescription that only existed in legends. Even Liu Guoshou, a doctor with many years of experience, felt that he was not very confident.

“That prescription is real; I’ve seen it before.” Yan Lan sighed softly, her voice low. “Because that prescription was originally written by my mother.”

Upon hearing this, Liu Guoshou's expression froze instantly, filled with shock. He even paused for a moment before finally finding his voice: "Your mother... drove it?"

Yan Lan nodded, her gaze drifting into the distance, as if returning to her childhood memories: "When I was only a few years old, I was very weak and was even poisoned in an accident."

In order to cure me, my mother spent a full ten years carefully considering and adjusting the prescription before finally writing it down.

It was thanks to that prescription that I gradually recovered and regained my health.

At this point, her voice grew heavy, tinged with a hint of melancholy: "Later, for some reason, my mother passed away. When I was sorting through her belongings, I searched everywhere but couldn't find that prescription. After that, I heard bits and pieces of people say that the prescription had appeared in Singapore."

Yan Lan is a recognized genius in medicine, but she has never been able to match her mother's expertise in prescriptions that address congenital deficiencies and can also cure old poisons. That is why she is so eager to find that prescription right now.

“I do have some information, but I can’t guarantee its accuracy.” Liu Guoshou paused, his tone cautious. “It’s said that someone in the Singapore government once produced this prescription. That person…” He hesitated noticeably halfway through his sentence, then raised his hand and carefully wrote a name on the paper, pushing it in front of Yan Lan.

Yan Lan glanced down, her brows furrowing instantly, her fingers unconsciously clenching the hem of her clothes. Actually, when she was searching for the prescription, she had vaguely suspected that the Yan family might have taken it. But none of the Yan family members understood pharmacology, and she had tried to subtly probe them several times, but to no avail, so she gradually gave up the idea.

Could it be... that Yan Feng really did secretly take my mother's prescription back then?

It seems she has to go see Yan Feng.

Yan Lan's gaze darkened, a barely perceptible hint of coldness flashing in her eyes; she had already made up her mind.

Without any delay, she immediately got up and headed to the prefecture.

Although I had long since severed all ties with the Yan family and cut off all contact, I had heard bits and pieces of news about the Yan family over the years. Besides knowing that Yan Xue and Liu Jinnian got married, I also knew that Yan Feng's career had been going very well in recent years.

After working at the Department of Health, Yan Feng rose through the ranks and now holds an important position in the state government, wielding considerable power.
