Lin Anning didn't learn until three days later that Jia San had been chased out of the black market by Shi Fugui.
She had been worrying for two days, even notifying the police station, fearing that Jia San harbored ill intentions to retaliate against her.
However, as days passed and Jia San disappeared without a trace, she was finally able to relax.
With Jia San no longer causing trouble, their business of sour plum drink and turtle jelly became even better.
She went from making a trip to the black market every day to making two trips.
Seeing the diminishing stock of herbs in the pharmacy, she grew worried again.
Fortunately, Uncle Gui had said that a batch of herbs would arrive in a couple of days, not much, but enough to hold them over for a while.
On her return from the black market, Lin Anning bought two tin buckets.
One was for her own use, the other to be sent to Zhang Fenglan's home.
