She wasn't about to give them the medicinal herbs she'd gone to such great trouble to buy on the black market.
Anyway, she was only providing the prescription, not the actual medicine. They could take it or leave it.
"Then what does it treat?" Granny pressed.
"Jie Jingchen's back injury and Jing Qi's leg," Qin Mei replied.
"Hasn't Jing Si's back injury already been healed? And Jing Qi's leg, hasn't that been healed too?" Granny asked.
Qin Mei raised a hand and rubbed the bridge of her nose. She couldn't even be bothered to humor her anymore.
Granny seized the opportunity. "Your grandpa has a bad leg, and my back isn't great either. You should treat us, too."
"I can," Qin Mei said, then paused before adding, "I'll do it if you pay."
Pay up, and she'd provide treatment. No money, no deal.
"Forget it. Your grandpa and I can't afford it," Granny said, giving up. She was willing to be treated if it was free, but not if she had to pay.
