“It can’t be that serious,” Wang Ru said with a smile.

“Of course, it is. For the wedding, only you and the groom will be the protagonists,” her friend said. “Other people can only be supporting actors. If you are standing next to your sister-in-law dressed like that, all the friends and guests will turn their gazes to your sister-in-law beside you. You must listen to my opinion.”

“What you have just said is reasonable, but how can I tell her that?” Wang Ru asked after considering what her friend said. “She has come all the way from Jing to attend my wedding.”

“It’s simple. Go to your brother and let him tell her,” her friend suggested.

“Alright.”

Wang Ru called Wang Yao over alone and told him about it.

“Well, alright, your worries make sense,” Wang Yao said. “I’ll talk to Xiaoxue about it.”

To be honest, when his girlfriend had put on the dress, he suddenly had a shocking feeling. She could not be described by a simple word like “beautiful.”

He called Su Xiaoxue, who was very excited, aside, and told her his sister’s request very gently.

“Huh?” Sure enough, Su Xiaoxue was disappointed after hearing about it, but she was still happy because she heard Wang Yao’s praise for her.

“Alright.”

The two of them could not help much there since everything was almost ready. They just had to wait for the wedding day.

Wang Yao could see that his older sister was very happy, but she was a little nervous. Du Mingyang was very loving and accompanied her throughout the entire process.

“I am so envious of them,” Su Xiaoxue said.

“Are you?” Wang Yao asked with a smile. “If you are willing, I will marry you.”

This sentence came out of Wang Yao’s mouth calmly, but Su Xiaoxue’s body quivered after hearing it.

“Really?”

“Of course,” Wang Yao said.

“Alright, you marry me,” Su Xiaoxue sweetly said. “When I graduate, we will get married.”

“Sure, that’s settled,” Wang Yao said. With one sentence, he was set for life.

The two of them left Lianshan’s town center when it was almost dark and rushed back to the village.

In the evening, Wang Yao went to Zhou Xiong’s residence in the mountain village to check on a patient. The man looked much better, but his entire body still hurt quite badly.

“Thank you so much, Sir.” He addressed Wang Yao the same as Zhou Xiong.

“Mmm, does it still hurt today?” Wang Yao asked,

“Yes, the pain seems to be worse than yesterday,” the man said.

“Is that so? I’ll take a look for you again.” Wang Yao re-examined him. “It is not a big problem. It’s just that the recovery of the internal organs is a little slower than I thought.”

For organ damage, the effect of the regathering soup alone was slightly inefficient.

“I’ll make some more medicine,” Wang Yao said to Zhou Xiong. “Come and pick it up tomorrow afternoon.”

“Yes, Sir,” Zhou Xiong replied.

That night, Wang Yao did not go up the mountain. He stayed at home for the night because Su Xiaoxue was also staying at his home.

Nothing happened overnight.

The next morning, after breakfast, Wang Yao and Su Xiaoxue went up the mountain.

Mountain firewood…

Ancient spring water…

Multifunctional pot for herbs…

It was the usual three items.

Wang Yao brewed medicine while Su Xiaoxue sat beside him and accompanied him. She also made a pot of tea for him.

Ginseng, Gorgon fruit, angelica, Ganoderma lucidum, licorice… Regathering soup, along with a non-withering herb, was used to calm the five vital internal organs and nourish the injuries while strengthening the uninjured parts. It was a prescription especially made for the injured patient.

“Have some tea first, Sir.” Su Xiaoxue poured him a cup of tea.

“Thank you.” Wang Yao accepted it with a smile.

“Do you find it very boring?” he asked.

“It is not boring.” Su Xiaoxue shook her head.

“There is still some fruit there,” Wang Yao said. “Would you like some more?”

“Sure.” Su Xiaoxue got up and brought the fruit over. She ate a grape and picked one to put in Wang Yao’s mouth.

If both their actions were to be seen by outsiders, it would have probably caused countless single dogs to go green with envy.

The herbal medicine was brewed.

“What’s the use of this medicine, Sir?” she asked.

“It is to consolidate the corporeity, settle and stabilize the five internal organs, and treat any injuries while nourishing the other body parts,” Wang Yao said. “There is a special patient in the village. His body’s meridians and internal organs have been disrupted and injured. He has been given medicine. The recovery of meridians is doing fine, but the recovery of his internal organs is a little slower, so I have added this medicine for him.”

“Oh.”

After the medicine had been brewed, they did not rush down the mountain. Wang Yao and Su Xiaoxue walked around the mountain and saw the plentiful fruits hanging on the trees. Su Xiaoxue suggested picking some.

“Sure, you pick some first,” Wang Yao said. “I’ll come and help you if you can’t reach it.”

Su Xiaoxue picked the fruit she could reach.

“That one is good, Sir!” She pointed to an autumn pear that was more than 9 feet from the ground.

“Alright, it’s easy to get,” he said.

When Wang Yao grabbed the air, it was as if the pear had been held by an invisible hand. The branches became tense. Suddenly, the pear flew toward the two of them. Wang Yao waved his hand a little, and the pear fell into Su Xiaoxue’s hand.

“Wow, Sir, you are great!” She happily clapped her hands. It was like a magic trick.

Seeing that she was happy, Wang Yao picked more fruit, again and again, using that method.

“What kind of kung fu is it, Sir?” Su Xiaoxue asked.

“Well, about that, there is no fixed name,” Wang Yao replied.

“When can I learn this, Sir?” Su Xiaoxue asked.

“When your neixi can be released, you can learn it, but it will probably take several years,” Wang Yao said.

Su Xiaoxue’s neixi was improving very fast. It was beyond Wang Yao’s imagination. The speed was no slower than that of Zhong Liuchuan, who practiced in the mountain village all day. After all, her main focus in Jing was to study. She had classes all day, and her course schedule was full. She did not have a lot of free time, unlike Zhong Liuchuan. Moreover, the environment in the village was much better than Jing, where she was living. From this, he could see how amazing her cultivating talent was.

“Shall we take these down the mountain?” Wang Yao asked.

“Sure.”

Around 11 a.m., the two of them came down the mountain with a bag of fruit.

“In the beginning, I even went out and sold chestnuts and jujubes,” Wang Yao said with a smile.

“Really?”

“Of course,” Wang Yao replied.

That was in the beginning.

“It is so delicious,” Su Xiaoxue said. “It must have been snatched away by others, right?”

“Almost,” Wang Yao said.

They went down the mountain, laughing and chatting happily. They soon saw Jia Zizai and Hu Mei, who were getting ready to go out.

“Hello, Sir,” Jia Zizai said.

“Hello, are you getting ready to go out?” Wang Yao asked.

“Yes, I don’t want to cook,” Jia Zizai said. “Let’s go out and have a meal together, Sir.”

“No, it’s alright, thank you,” Wang Yao replied.

“OK, we shall leave first.”

“Let’s go.” Jia Zizai tugged Hu Mei along, who was a little dazed. “What’s the matter with you just now? Were you amazed? She is beautiful, right? She is just a little worse than you, Wifey.”

“What is Sir’s girlfriend’s name?” For some unknown reason, Hu Mei’s expression had turned ugly.

“I don’t know. I didn’t ask. What’s the matter?” Seeing that Hu Mei’s expression was not quite right, Jia Zizai felt a little anxious.

“It’s nothing,” Hu Mei said. “I hope I have seen wrong.”

“Wait.” Jia Zizai’s face changed. He quickly pulled her aside to the corner.

“Can you be clear? What is going on?” he asked.

“Do you remember Old Mu?” Hu Mei asked.

“Yes, I remember. He’s that weird and strange guy who is always muttering to himself,” Jia Zizai said. “He’s a poison master. What’s the matter?”

“I once worked with him to carry out a special task,” Hu Mei said. “He got a prescription from an unknown source and created a special poison. It was extremely toxic. We were appointed by Zhang Wei to go to the south to find someone to test the poison on. Those people were very difficult, so several people were injured by mistake at that time. I remember that there was a very beautiful girl in her teens. She looks similar to Sir’s girlfriend!”

“What?” Jia Zizai’s face changed. “Are you sure you remember correctly?”

“Of course, I made no mistake,” Hu Mei replied. “That girl is very beautiful, innocent, and romantic. I remember it vividly. At that time, I regretted it.”

“What is her name?” Jia Zizai asked.

“I only heard part of her name, Xiaoxue,” Hu Mei replied.

“Wait, I will go and ask.” Jia Zizai called to Zhong Liuchuan.

“What other matters do you have?” Zhong Liuchuan asked.

“What are you busy with?” Jia Zizai asked.

“I am eating,” Zhong Liuchuan said.

“What is the name of Sir’s girlfriend?” Jia Zizai asked.

“Why are you asking?” Zhong Liuchuan asked at the other end of the phone.

“Well, I have to know what my future Master’s wife is called,” Jia Zizai replied.

“Su Xiaoxue.”
