Chapter 59: Three Months
Chen Qing got up, pushed open the door and walked to the well in the courtyard, drawing up a bucket of cool water to wash up.
Amid the splashing water sounds, Lady Han came walking in from outside the courtyard carrying a vegetable basket, "Ah Qing, two groups of people came this morning, both saying they were delivering things for you."
As she spoke, she took out a heavy package and a small white porcelain bottle from the basket, "Here, this package was delivered by the Cheng family's steward, and this small porcelain bottle, well, the person who delivered it said he was Jiang Yang's junior brother."
"Oh?"
Chen Qing was slightly surprised, took the items, and turned back into the house.
Unwrapping the package, inside was a thick stack of silver notes totaling three hundred taels, with twenty plump and full blood qi pills neatly arranged beside them.
Chen Qing understood immediately, this was the Cheng family's generous thanks for his life-risking efforts yesterday.
After all, while the Cheng family's kindness to him was real, such favors would eventually be exhausted one day.
From now on, the Cheng family would certainly value him even more.
