"And before I left Kyoto, quite a few people there had also started falling sick. I heard that Su Tao had sent people for medical volunteering, but for some reason, the herbs they brought back were of no use. Worse, many people were retching and purging after taking the soup made from these herbs. Not only did their situations not improve, but the diseases worsened."
I heard from the servants in the Residence mention previously that whenever there were minor or major illnesses, the 'soup medicine' offered by Su Tao in medical volunteering was always very effective. But after something happened, rumors spread that Lu Fengyun had an argument with Su Tao."
Shen Miaomiao was fiddling with a handkerchief, too perplexed for words.
She wasn't very fond of Su Tao, after all, she had spread rumours around Yan City, just to prop up her own business.
Although in war, deceit is permissible, it's not admirable for a woman to profit at the expense of her own reputation.
