"But you can't just ride on top of someone and hit them!"

When Su Lingwu saw Su Lingtang coming over, she quickly pulled her mother, Xu Meili, away to avoid being blamed if anything happened to her belly.

"Mom, let's stay away from pregnant women. If they try to pin this on us, we won't be able to clear our names even if we open our mouths ten times."

Su Lingtang, her belly protruding, walked to Du Lijuan's side and tried to pull her up. "Mom, how are you?"

"Mom's fine, I can get up myself." Du Lijuan didn't pull her daughter up, but got up herself and patted the dust off her clothes.

"Xu Meili, you're ruthless!"

As Du Lijuan spoke, the flesh on her face twitched, causing her to wince in pain.

Xu Meili straightened her clothes and hair, and glanced at Su Lingtang.

Seeing Du Lijuan's disheveled appearance, Xu Meili felt incredibly pleased. "Du Lijuan, let me tell you, if you keep talking like that, I'll hit you!"

"You and your daughter are both here. Let me make this clear: it's impossible for you to get your medicine from my daughter for free!"

"You're dreaming! Those medicines were the result of my daughter's hard work—buying the herbs, processing them, brewing and refining them. She failed time and time again, and each failure cost her a fortune. They were the product of money. You just want them for free? You're dreaming!"

"Why don't you say that going to the hospital for treatment is free? You all know that going to the hospital for treatment costs money, so why is it that just because my daughter is a doctor, you're expected to give her medicine for free, and if you don't, you're considered heartless and cold-blooded? What kind of logic is that?"

After Xu Meili finished speaking, Su Lingtang and Du Lijuan fell silent.

The people in the family compound were also deep in thought; it really was true.

In fact, Xu Meili was not only speaking to Du Lijuan and her daughter, but also to everyone else.

Everyone only sees that the daughter earns money; being a doctor is respectable and pays a high salary. But no one sees how hard she works.

At home, she always has a book in her hand, reading one after another, and she can't stop buying medicinal herbs. Every time she sees her daughter buying so many medicinal herbs, she feels sorry for her daughter for spending so much money.

But she also knew that without trying, how could she make good medicine?

Some people are alright, they are very grateful for the treatment, but some people are ungrateful, they will gossip behind her back, which makes her angry.

"Well... we're sisters after all, not outsiders," Du Lijuan said, still unconvinced.

"Why don't you just say you'll spend a little more money to exchange the medicine with me, consider it a red envelope for the three children? You make it sound nice, but you're just thinking about taking advantage of me!"

Su Lingwu rolled her eyes. What kind of "insiders" am I to you?

"Then...how much will it cost? How many will we exchange?" Su Lingtang said through gritted teeth. As long as Gu Chenzhou could recover quickly, she was willing to spend a little money.

So many people say Su Lingwu has excellent medical skills, she wants to see just how good Su Lingwu's medical skills really are.

"Deputy Battalion Commander Gu needs the Guiyuan Pill to restore his vital energy. After being seriously injured and losing blood, it can quickly restore his qi and blood. However, the ingredients for this medicine are very rare, and I have only made two pills."

Of course it's fake. Su Lingwu's space is overflowing with medicinal herbs, far more than she could use. She has plenty of these Rejuvenation Pills in her space, so she can't tell the truth.

Things are valued for their rarity.

Besides, her pills are worth the money; it's just a matter of who knows their value.

She didn't want to sell her medicine for a pittance.

"One Guiyuan Pill costs six hundred. This is only because we know each other. Otherwise, I wouldn't sell it for eight hundred."

After Su Lingwu finished speaking, everyone was stunned.

Six hundred!

"Su Lingwu, are you out of your mind because you're so poor?!"

"Aren't you trying to extort money? What kind of medicine can be so expensive? If you don't want to sell it, just say so. Everyone heard how outrageous Su Lingwu is. She dares to charge six hundred for an ordinary medicine."

Du Lijuan staggered when she heard the number six hundred.

One pill costs more than all the money in her family. Su Lingwu really dares to ask for it. Isn't this just asking for the moon?

Su Lingtang's expression was also not good. "Su Lingwu, I'm serious. I'm not joking with you."

"Su Lingtang, do you think I'm teasing you?"

"This is the military. I have no interest in joking with you like this. My medicine is worth the money. Whether you want it or not is your business."

"Come on, Xiaotang, this girl is lying. What kind of medicine is so expensive? Is it made of gold? I think Chenzhou is doing just fine staying in the hospital. The doctors there are more professional than her. Why should he waste money on these lousy medicines? Don't ruin his health."

Du Lijuan felt that Su Lingwu was even more unreliable.

She had never seen a traditional Chinese medicine doctor before. The village barefoot doctor could prescribe medicine for just a few cents, not even a dollar, yet she dared to ask for six hundred, and all she got was a single broken pill!

Will eating it grant you ascension to heaven?!

"Xiao Su, you have such a good thing, why are you hiding it? Can I represent our military region and buy these two Guiyuan Pills from you?"

Division Commander Lin and Political Commissar Liu walked through the crowd and entered.

Upon hearing about such a wonderful thing, the two naturally didn't want to miss out.

Guiyuan Pill sounds like no ordinary medicine. Soldiers are bound to get injured. If a single pill can save a soldier during a mission, it's a worthwhile investment.

You have to know how much it costs to train an excellent soldier in the army. Compared to a pill that costs 600 yuan, it's nothing.

How much loss can it save the troops?

This medicine is especially useful when facing highly difficult and dangerous missions.

Fu Linchuan is really lucky. His wife is so capable, how could he miss out on such a good medicine?

He strongly suspected that Su Lingwu had created this drug specifically for Fu Linchuan.

"Commander Lin, Political Commissar Liu."

"Of course, if the military wants them, I can give you a discount. I'll charge you 500 per pill."

When Su Lingtang and Du Lijuan heard Su Lingwu call for the division commander and political commissar, they realized that they must be high-ranking leaders of the military region.

Du Lijuan was too nervous to look up, and Su Lingtang was also a little embarrassed, as she didn't want to leave a bad impression on her superior.

"You must be Deputy Battalion Commander Gu's wife. We understand your eagerness for him to get better, but you don't need to worry. There are people at the hospital taking care of him, and they will give him the best Western medicine. You, as his family, don't need to be anxious."

"Your belly looks quite far along. Take good care of yourself at home. Deputy Battalion Commander Gu will be home soon, so don't let him worry about you while he's in the hospital."

"As for your internal conflicts, we won't interfere any further."

Although the political commissar didn't say anything harsh, Su Lingtang felt that the leader was targeting her.

Moreover, you can tell how far away you are just by listening to your tone of voice.

They really like Su Lingwu.

Su Lingtang pursed her lower lip tightly, clenched her fists, and nodded after a moment. "I'm sorry, leaders, for causing you trouble."

"You're new here, so there are many things you don't understand. You'll learn about them later."

Commander Lin smiled and looked at Su Lingwu, "Little Su, do you have any other good medicines? Have Lin Chuan bring them over for us to see. We're willing to buy some for backup, no matter the price. Don't be stingy!"

Medicine made by Su Lingwu is never bad.

They knew that the top leaders valued Su Lingwu highly.

When Su Lingtang heard that the army's top leader was treating Su Lingwu so well and even wanted to buy more medicine from her, agreeing to pay any price, it was like a slap in the face to Su Lingtang.
