"What are these?" The village chief's wife asked as she looked at the bottle her husband had placed in her hands.
"Life-saving medicine, it's very precious. Just keep it safe, no need to ask much else," the village chief replied, glancing at his wife. He hadn't told her everything as women sometimes can't keep a secret, and if this got out, it might cause trouble for Qin Lei's family. It was best only he knew about it.
Seeing her husband's serious demeanor, the wife didn't ask further. She put the bottle away with her dowry. If her husband said it was a good thing, then it was. Her responsibility was just to keep it safe.
"Qin Xue, I'm back, this is for you." Qin Lei handed the bottles, documents, and keys to Qin Xue when he returned home.
"Dad, why did it take so long?" Qin Xue looked at the items in her hand. At last, they had managed to buy them, though it took a rather long time.
