Chapter 989: Chapter 989: Paying Respect to a Famous Teacher 6

In this regard, Cui Shaoyuan had a say.

Therefore, Feng Qingxue instructed Lu Jiang to find Cui Shaoyuan, who was the only one among their acquaintances with the ability and the clout to deliver the items they had prepared into Commander Ye’s hands.

Before Cui Shaoyuan left their unit, he left his address with Feng Qingxue and her husband as a token of gratitude for saving his father.

The true value of favors is realized only when they are needed.

Feng Qingxue often felt fortunate that she and her family had once provided timely help to some people. Her family’s current well-being was due to their clandestine support, which had given her the opportunity to learn.

"Don’t go asking for help empty-handed," Feng Qingxue’s hand swept over the table, and a box containing a Bezoar Pill appeared.

She transferred the wax-sealed Bezoar Pill into a glass bottle and handed it to Lu Jiang, "Just say it’s been a long time since Cui Lao fell ill, and we don’t know how he’s doing now. By chance, we obtained a few Bezoar Pills, so we’re taking the opportunity of coming to the Capital to send one over in case of future emergencies."

Lu Jiang held the glass bottle in the palm of his hand, "Thank you, wife."

With a wife like this, what more could a husband ask for?

"Hurry up, don’t delay. Didn’t you say that Commander Ye is about to be sent to the northwest soon?"

"When I’m not here, make sure to rest, and I’ll be back in time to prepare your medicine..."

Feng Qingxue cut him off, "Do you think I don’t understand the importance of health? Stop dawdling, go. We have a lot on our plate."

She hadn’t finished her assignment and didn’t know if she would get the chance to receive guidance from Guo Ming. There was no telling how Lu Tianjun and Jiang Xiaoyue were faring, Wang Xinsheng was living in fear, and there was a pile of concerns they had to handle on their own.

Lu Jiang watched her finish the morning’s medicinal broth and quickly left the house.

Taking the bus, he soon arrived at the government office where Cui Shaoyuan worked. He reported his visit, and Cui Shaoyuan came out to greet him.

"Comrade Lu, what a rare visitor, a rare visitor! Please come in."

Cui Shaoyuan brought him straight to his office and, before Lu Jiang could speak, poured him a glass of water, "When did Comrade Lu come to the Capital? If I had known you were here, I should have personally visited you to express my gratitude."

"A visit to express gratitude? For what?" Hadn’t the favor for saving his father already been acknowledged?

Cui Shaoyuan placed the enamel Gangzi on the table beside them, held Lu Jiang’s hands with both of his, and said earnestly, "For saving our lives! Two lives! The Bezoar Pill that Comrade Qingxue left for my father saved my young son who suddenly came down with meningitis! First saving my father, then my son, I truly cannot repay you enough!"

Lu Jiang had not expected such an event, and hastily took out the glass bottle containing the Bezoar Pill, repeating Feng Qingxue’s instructions before he left, "Had I known, I would have asked Qingxue to prepare an extra one."

Cui Shaoyuan treated it like a treasure, "Comrade Lu, this is really..."

He was so grateful that he couldn’t even finish his sentence.

Bearing the rarity of Bezoar, naturally, the Bezoar Pills were even scarcer. He couldn’t find them even with his capabilities in the Capital, indicating their preciousness, and guessed that if there were any, they had already been snatched up by others. His hometown was far from the Capital, and his child fell ill there. Even if he had found the Bezoar Pills in the Capital, he couldn’t have delivered them immediately.

Cui Hongbin’s treasured Bezoar Pill came to good use, and he immediately sent a telegram asking him to thank Feng Qingxue properly.
