Chapter 55: Mysterious Person (2)
But now, when it was her turn to open those boxes and sort them, Duan Yixin really wanted to cry. It’s a pity that even if she sheds tears, she still has to do it.
After finishing the second bowl of porridge, Duan Yixin went to the well to wash dishes and pots. Seeing that it was still dark outside, she went back to the house and took the candle from the living room.
She took the candle with her to the well to wash the dishes and returned the clean pots and bowls to the kitchen. Then, she went to check out the medicinal herbs drying in the backyard. Duan Yixin was a scientist in her previous life and very observant. As soon as her eyes fell on the medicinal herbs, she noticed that someone had touched these medicinal herbs.
She squinted her eyes and checked the ground carefully but still found nothing. Not even a single footprint could be found. Duan Yixin checked the herbs drying racks one by one and found that several medicinal herbs were missing from every herb drying rack.
She stood there and fell into deep thoughts, ’This man is not here to steal but to investigate. Since he only collected samples of each medicinal herb, he was not from Chang Shou Pharmacy. But if this person is not from Chang Shou Pharmacy, then who is this person? What is the purpose of investigating me? Is this person a subordinate of Master Chen?’
Thinking of this, Duan Yixin’s eyes turned cold. If Master Chen had such an expert as a subordinate, her future would be full of danger. But if this person is not from Master Chen’s side, then she will face more dangers because she does not know who her enemy is.
The most dangerous thing is that the enemy is in the dark, and she is in the light. Without any information about the enemy, Duan Yixin can only act more carefully now.
Lacking information to deduce the mysterious person’s identity, Duan Yixin could only put this incident on hold. Now, all she needs to do is plant the seeds before heading to Chunshan Town with Tang Sanniu to buy land.
After putting all the half-dried medicinal herbs into the warehouse, Duan Yixin went to the woodshed. When she entered, she first examined it carefully. Her eyes darkened when she saw that one of the wooden buckets on the shelves had lost some of its soil.
’It seems that this person is really here to investigate me. Luckily, I didn’t pull out the high-tech stuff and made everything by hand. Otherwise, it would be troublesome if this person targeted me because of those stuff inside my warehouse.’
Thinking of her carelessness this time, Duan Yixin put the two large wooden barrels filled with nutrient solution and adjusted water in the corner of the woodshed into the warehouse.
