Unexpectedly, at the entrance to the mountain trail, she encountered the elderly Madam Xiao.
Madam Fu stepped forward to greet her.
But to her surprise, the elderly lady, with tears in her eyes, grasped Madam Fu's hand, "I've heard everything."
"Shinian…" The elderly Madam Xiao choked up, "Thanks to Shinian this time, if it weren't for her… The shortage of medicine in the city would have had unimaginable consequences."
She thought about how Ganning City lacked medicine, and should Xiao Chengyu become infected, it would be a heavy blow to his health, surely leading to his demise.
Now that Fu Shinian had brought medicine into the city, even if Xiao Chengyu were to be infected, there would at least be medicine for treatment.
"Our family owes Shinian," the elderly Madam Xiao said, holding Madam Fu's hand, "I will remember this kindness and surely repay it."
Madam Fu's eyes also turned red; Xiao Chengyu was saved, but her family's Shinian would be implicated needlessly.
