After finishing these words, Xia Yuhan continued to whisper some things into Sun Liuxiang's ear until she saw the big man settle his mother properly before stopping.
"Everything will trouble you, sister. Remember to come find me," Xia Yuhan said, casting a cold glance at Old Village Chief, "Old Village Chief, if you don't take action now, you'll never have another chance to turn things around in your life!"
"Don't worry, sister! It's getting late; if we delay any longer, we might not be able to treat her. We need to act quickly," Sun Liuxiang said anxiously. She was worried that further delays could lead to complications and hoped that things could be resolved sooner, no matter what methods Xia Yuhan used.
Xia Yuhan understood and gave Sun Liuxiang a knowing look before quickly stepping onto the carriage. "Big man, the space inside the carriage is limited; please wait for us outside."
The big man nodded vigorously and repeatedly expressed his gratitude. "Second Sister, I entrust my mother to you! In the future, I would be willing to work like a horse for Second Sister!"
Xia Yuhan glanced at Madam, whose face was pale and breathing painfully, and urged the big man, "Save your thanks for later. Besides, I don't have complete confidence that I can cure your mother's Leg Disease... By the way, big man, you must remember to keep those anxious villagers calm after getting off the carriage because this treatment will take a long time. As for how long it will be, I can't say for sure. Can you trust me?"
The big man was taken aback; just moments ago, Xia Yuhan had exuded an imposing aura that made her seem untouchable. Now she was so approachable and treated him like a friend, which moved him deeply. He patted his chest and assured her, "How could I not trust Second Sister? You can rest assured while treating my mother! But we must show the village chief a thing or two; otherwise, it would be disrespectful to the deceased Zhang Wa and Huang Si!"
Xia Yuhan nodded gently. "Go ahead, big man!"
Did she not wish to decisively crush Old Village Chief as well?
Regaining her focus, Xia Yuhan dared not delay any longer. She quickly closed the carriage door and hurried toward her Treasure Chest.
Given Madam's current condition, administering a painkiller was essential; however, she couldn't be sure that the Treasure Chest contained the medicine needed to treat Madam's Leg Disease.
After all, it had been a long time since she had thoroughly checked the Treasure Chest; the last time she opened it was in a rush.
As soon as Xia Yuhan touched the Treasure Chest, she noticed signs that the password to open it had been locked. This further confirmed that her maid Qiao'er had indeed come into contact with the chest and attempted to open it.
But this chest was not something an ordinary person could open. Long ago, in order to prevent the Treasure Chest from being lost and easily accessed by others, Xia Yuhan had set the highest level of security for it. Each time the chest was opened, the password was different, and only she knew the pattern of its changes.
Therefore, Xia Yuhan was not worried about others discovering the password and stealing what was inside. Her only concern was whether she could keep the chest with her at all times.
At this moment, Madam's leg was in great pain, so she kept her eyes tightly closed throughout, only slightly trembling her lips when she wanted to speak.
Thus, Xia Yuhan did not need to give Madam any sedatives, saving a portion of expenses.
