“Young Master, this is for you.”

Ah Zhu wiped its mouth and handed it to Shao Qingyuan. Then, it looked at him expectantly.

Shao Qingyuan didn’t think much of it at first. After accepting it and taking a closer look, he exclaimed, “Where did you get it?”

“I found it in Doctor Liu’s medicine basket.” Ah Zhu chuckled.

The medicine basket was sent to the government office as physical evidence. As expected, the county magistrate found a doctor to examine it.

However, the doctor only flipped through the top two layers of herbs and confirmed that they were useless weeds. There might be some herbs mixed in, but they were not worth much.

Then, the county magistrate convicted Doctor Liu and asked them to sign on the documents. The matter was resolved.

As for the medicine basket, it was filled with useless grass that would rot in a day or two, so the county office servants planned to pour it as garbage.

Ah Zhu saw that there was actually a herb under the herb basket. He had been by Shao Qingyuan’s side for so long and more or less knew some of herbs. He immediately brought the herb back.

“I’m not sure either. It just looks like it. Young Master, is this the Hongming you mentioned?”

Shao Qingyuan nodded. “Yes, I didn’t expect him to dig up a treasure.”

“Hongming?” Gu Yundong felt that this herb sounded familiar.

Shao Qingyuan said, “These are the medicinal herbs recorded in the medical book Dr. Song gave me. They are mainly used for clearing the eyes.”

In that case, it was also a very precious medicinal herb?

Shao Qingyuan put it away and praised, “Not bad, you deserve praise.”

Ah Zhu’s eyes lit up and she quickly buried his head in his food.

That night, the few of them rested in the manor before preparing to leave the next day.

Gu Yundong frowned slightly when she saw Big Black lying on the ground.

After a night of recuperation, Big Black looked much better. It had a strong recovery ability and used good medicine. It had already tried to stand up.

However, just as the vet had said, Big Black’s leg was too injured to land on the ground. It would probably limp in the future.

“I want to go to the Yuan family and tell Yuan Cheng about Big Black.”

“Alright, I’ll go with you.”

Gu Yundong asked Tong Shuitao and the others to prepare the carriage and wait at the door while she and Shao Qingyuan walked towards the Yuan residence.

The Yuan family was not far from the manor. It did not take long for the two of them to approach the entrance of the Yuan family.

However, before the two of them could knock on the door, they heard Yuan Cheng’s familiar voice from inside.

“I don’t agree. I want to keep Big Black. Even if it can only retire at home in the future, I won’t abandon it.”

Gu Yundong was surprised and could not help but look at Shao Qingyuan.

Immediately after, another sigh came from the courtyard. From the sound of it, it might be Yuan Cheng’s father. “Ah Cheng, can you not be so stubborn? I know you have a good relationship with Big Black, but it’s already crippled. It won’t be able to walk steadily in the future. It definitely won’t be able to guard that orchard like Big Yellow and the others to scare off the thieves. However, it eats a lot. We can’t afford to keep it anymore.”

“The owner has given us money. Why can’t we afford it?”

Father Yuan frowned. “The owner did give you money, but don’t you only have two dogs now? How can two dogs be enough in such a big herb garden? You definitely have to raise another one. Won’t this Big Black eat and drink for free? In the past, it could enter the back mountain to hunt some wild chickens and rabbits, but now, do you think it can do it?”
