Right now, food was very precious, and the situation inside and outside the town was chaotic.

If someone found out Zhang Laosan was hiding food on himself, the possibility of him getting robbed was not that small at all.

“After you go back, pack up some belongings. Wait for me at the West Gate tomorrow morning.”

“Yes. Alright!” Zhang Laosan quickly answered.

After bowing to Qin Dahu once more, he left.

After Zhang Laosan had left, Qin Dahu closed the courtyard door and returned to the hall.

Following that, he explained what happened to Qin Xiaoyao and the rest.

“Not bad, Big Brother! I didn’t realize in the past you were so good at bluffing.” Qin Xiaoyao quickly turned to look at Qin Dahu with a beaming smile.

Qin Dazhuang and Qin Erhu were a little surprised.

However, they were all very pleased with what Qin Dahu had done.

Qin Dahu scratched his head in embarrassment.

“I was just thinking that we can’t let Zhang Laosan go to the government office. After that, my brain was suddenly hit by a divine light.”

Smiles crept across everyone’s faces.

Thereafter, they discussed how to deal with this matter.

The final conclusion they arrived at was to pretend that they didn’t know anything.

They would continue with their daily activities.

They weren’t the ones who killed those people. As long as they didn’t panic, the mountain bandits wouldn’t be able to find out that they were responsible.

Thus, the problem that had troubled the Qin family for a long time was solved.

After she was done with her business, Qin Xiaoyao didn’t stay in the Qin family’s house for long. She quickly bid farewell to her father and brothers and returned home.

Following this, the most tense period after the mountain bandits entered the town passed.

The Song family’s days were still stable even when they were not busy with their business.

As for the Qin family, the Wang family, and the Liu family, although they were not idle, they only did some small business of collecting and selling firewood. Their lives were relatively peaceful and uneventful.

A few more days passed and Big Girl Li finally gave birth.

The couple had a chubby daughter whom they named Liu Chunhua. Her figure was very similar to Big Girl Li’s, and she appeared very sturdy.

This made Big Girl Li very depressed, but the child was still her daughter. Very quickly, Big Girl accepted the reality.

On the other hand, Qin Xiaoyao didn’t dislike little Chunhua at all. In fact, she liked her very much.

In the end, she even accepted little Chunhua as her goddaughter.

In the blink of an eye, it was the end of the year.

Finally, news arrived in Mountain Spring Town that the Imperial Court’s army was coming to deal with the mountain bandits.

The situation in the town became tense again.

The mountain bandits started to impose martial law in the town. At the same time, they closed the town gates and continued to plunder the wealth and food of the civilians.

For a time, the commoners in the town were full of complaints, and the shops in the town closed their doors again.

Qin Xiaoyao obeyed Song Que’s instructions and stayed at home, keeping him company all day.

This would last until the Imperial Court’s army broke through the town’s defenses and end the chaos in Mountain Spring Town.

To their surprise, Big Girl Li and her husband suddenly broke the peace in the Song family.

“Sister Sanya, Chunhua’s fever is very high and we can’t locate any doctor outside. We have no other choice but to come to you. Boo hoo hoo… Sister Sanya, please help Chunhua. Please help us think of a solution!” As soon as she entered the compound, Big Girl Li started crying.

Qin Xiaoyao quickly went up to hold Big Girl Li up.

“What are you doing?

“You just gave birth. Instead of staying at home to observe your confinement period and taking good care of yourself, you’re out running around on such a cold day.

“Daniu, what are you doing? Big Girl doesn’t know any better, and you don’t know how to stop her?” Qin Xiaoyao glared at Liu Daniu furiously.

At the same time, she quickly brought Big Girl Li into the house.

Liu Daniu wanted to explain, but he wasn’t able to say anything in the end.

He simply carried the child and followed Qin Xiaoyao.

After entering the house, the interior was much warmer.

After drinking the hot water that Qin Xiaoyao gave her, Big Girl Li felt much better.

“Sister Sanya, don’t blame Daniu.

“I was the one who insisted on coming.

“Now the shops outside are all closed and there is no way to find a doctor. Our daughter… Boo hoo hoo! I had no other choice, so I brought my daughter here with Daniu to look for you.

“Boo hoo hoo… Chunhua… Our Chunhua has been having a fever for the entire night.

“If the fever continues, I’m afraid… I’m afraid her brain may get damaged…” Big Girl Li quickly pulled Qin Xiaoyao back, tears and snot flowing down her face rapidly.

The sight made Qin Xiaoyao’s heart ache, but she also found it a little comical.

“Don’t be so anxious. Let me take a look.” After comforting Big Girl Li, Qin Xiaoyao went to pick up her goddaughter.

Qin Xiaoyao took little Chunhua from Liu Daniu’s arms. Sure enough, she noticed that the child’s face was flushed and she did not appear very normal.

She touched the child and found that she was indeed running a high fever.

Qin Xiaoyao furrowed her brows when she recalled that Big Girl Li said the child had been running a fever the entire night before.

When little Chunhua was born, she was bigger than the average child.

Qin Xiaoyao had thought that this child would be more healthy than the average child, but now…

“Sister Sanya…” Liu Daniu called out worriedly.

He knew that they were imposing on the Song family when they came to Sister Sanya’s house so rashly to ask for help.

However, they really had no other choice.

In this town, the only one who could help them was probably Sister Sanya.

Qin Xiaoyao looked at Liu Daniu.

“Indeed, Chunhua’s condition can’t be delayed. How do you want me to help?” she asked.

Putting aside the sisterly relationship between her and Big Girl, little Chunhua was her goddaughter no less.

Now that her goddaughter was in trouble, how could Qin Xiaoyao, as her godmother, stand by and do nothing?

A look of agitation flashed across Liu Daniu’s face.

“We… we’ve already found out where Doctor Li lives. It’s just that… The street over there has been sealed off.”

“The mountain bandits are blocking the way. No one is allowed to go that way.”

“That’s why we’re here. Sister Sanya, we want to ask if you can help us pull some strings and bring me and little Chunhua to see Doctor Li.”

Sister Sanya knew many people and had a wide network. She was the most likely person who could help that the couple could think of and could locate.

Qin Xiaoyao frowned.

Using connections to get past the mountain bandits?

She didn’t have such connections at all. Even if she did, she would never use it.

The mountain bandits would be exterminated by the Imperial Court’s army very soon. If they were associated with that group of people, there was a risk of the authorities settling accounts with them later.

“I don’t have any such connection.

“However, if you guys trust me, let me take little Chunhua with me. I will find a way to take her to see Doctor Li,” Qin Xiaoyao replied quickly.

Little Chunhua’s illness couldn’t be delayed, so she could only take her to the doctor.

With her skills, she should be able to bring little Chunhua and break through the sealed area.

If she brought Daniu along, it would be more troublesome.

The couple looked at each other.

“We trust you! We’ll do as you say, Sister Sanya! Thank you, Sister Sanya!” Big Girl Li said quickly.

Liu Daniu also nodded in concurrence.

Qin Xiaoyao finally looked away from little Chunhua’s face.

“Then let’s not delay. Daniu, hold the child first. I’ll go back to my room and pack up. Then I’ll leave.” With that, Qin Xiaoyao returned the child to Liu Daniu.

“Mm-hmm! Thank you, Sister Sanya!” Liu Daniu quickly did as he was told.

After handing the child over to Liu Daniu, Qin Xiaoyao quickly returned to her room.

As she changed her clothes, she briefed Song Que on the situation.

When Song Que heard this, he quickly frowned.

However, little Chunhua was also his goddaughter. After seeing that child, he also adored her very much..
