(Alternate History Era + Military Marriage + Rebirth + Strong Female Lead + Doting on Wife) Ace secret agent Yun Bei died unexpectedly, and when she opened her eyes again, she had become Yun Bei, a...
After the last needle was taken out, Yunbei smiled and asked Mrs. Zhang, "Auntie, how do you feel?"
"Very good!" The old lady said as she sat up, then carefully felt her body and said, "Little girl, your medical skills are quite good. I have seen many Chinese medicine practitioners, and yours is definitely one of the best among them."
"Auntie, you really know how to praise me."
"I'm not praising you, what I said is true. At first, I thought you were young and your medical skills were not very good. But I didn't expect that your medical skills are better than those of old doctors. No wonder my son invited you here. Not bad, not bad. Next time I'm sick, I'll come to see you again."
"Auntie, I hope you won't get sick in the future."
"Haha, I hope so too. But people, as they get older, will always have ailments of one kind or another. I'll definitely have to trouble you when the time comes."
"Okay, come find me when the time comes."
When Old Liu saw the two of them coming out of the house, he immediately asked, "Mom, how do you feel?"
"The girl's medical skills are quite good. Where did you find her? There are not many Chinese medicine practitioners as skilled as her these days. You must thank her very much."
"I understand, mother. She is Si Nanzhao's fiancée and will live in this compound from now on. If you feel unwell next time, you can go find her directly, but don't go up the mountain to collect herbs by yourself. She lives not far away, in the courtyard at the foot of the mountain that has never been inhabited."
"Okay, I understand." Old Mrs. Zhang nodded, then looked at Yunbei and asked, "Little girl, what's your name? I can come find you next time."
"Auntie, my name is Yunbei."
"Okay, I'll remember that." Old Mrs. Zhang laughed. Thinking of the herbs in her yard, she couldn't help but ask, "Yunbei, are the herbs I picked before no longer usable?"
"It can be used, but you have to wait for me to find a few more herbs and then combine them with the ones you have gathered."
"Oh, so, when are you going to pick herbs? I'll go with you. I'm very familiar with this mountain and I know exactly where the herbs are."
"No need, Auntie. I can go by myself when the time comes. You should stay home and have a good rest. You need more rest with your illness."
After hearing Yunbei's words, Old Liu looked at her with gratitude and continued, "Mom, did you hear that? This time it wasn't me who said it, it was the doctor. If you don't listen to me, you should at least listen to the doctor, right?"
"Okay, okay, I get it. Who would work if they could rest? I'm not stupid." Old Mrs. Zhang rolled her eyes at her son, then looked at Yunbei and asked, "Yunbei, you just treated me. How much is the consultation fee? I'll go get it for you."
"No need, Auntie."
"How can that be?" Old Mrs. Zhang said as she took money out of her pocket for Yunbei.
Seeing her actions, Yunbei immediately said, "Auntie, it really doesn't cost any money. How about this, I see you have a lot of vegetables planted in your yard, and they are growing well. I just moved here, and I don't have these at home, so why don't you give me some vegetables."
"Hey, this vegetable isn't worth much. If you want it, just come pick it from me. I'm telling you, I'm not good at cooking anything else, but I'm an expert at this kind of vegetable. The vegetables I grow are famous in this family compound."
As Mrs. Zhang spoke, she quickly ran to the vegetable garden. She picked a lot of vegetables, no matter what kind, and gave them to Yunbei.
Looking at the huge pile of dishes, Yunbei was at a loss whether to laugh or cry.
However, Yunbei couldn't refuse the kindness, so he accepted it.
When she returned home, Si Nanzhao saw her carrying a pile of vegetables and asked with a smile, "Where did you get so many vegetables? It will take us several days to eat them, right?"
"It's given to me by Section Chief Liu's wife, I have to refuse it."
Yunbei put the vegetables in the kitchen and originally planned to go up the mountain. Seeing that it was getting late, he had to wait until the afternoon.
So she put the medicine box back in the room and went into the kitchen to prepare lunch.
In her previous life, she was a foodie, so she loved to cook for herself, which led to her developing good cooking skills. Plus, the original owner had also been cooking since she was a child, so Yunbei didn't have to worry about Si Nanzhao getting suspicious.
When Yunbei finished cooking, Si Nanzhao took a bite and praised Yunbei highly, saying to him, "Yunbei, with your cooking skills, you can be a chef in a state-owned restaurant."
"I can't do the job of a chef." Yunbei waved her hand. She didn't want to be a cook.
After dinner, Si Nanzhao wanted to wash the dishes, and Yunbei didn't refuse. Although his injury wasn't completely healed, it was still okay for him to do some work.
Thinking about Aunt Zhang's herbs, Yunbei didn't plan to rest at noon, but planned to go to the mountain to have a look. If he could pick the herbs he needed in the mountain, that would naturally be the best.
It doesn’t matter if you can’t pick any. There are a few herbs in the medicine garden in her space, and you can pick some.
As for Huang Xiaocao, ever since Chu Feifei left, she had been asking about Yunbei's news. Although she wasn't very popular, she was quite good at getting information.
Soon, she found out that Si Nanzhao had brought a girl to live in the staff housing complex and told others that she was his fiancée.
Thinking of Chu Feifei's instructions, Huang Xiaocao decided to observe for a few days first.
Unexpectedly, after dinner, she was bored and strolling outside Yunbei's yard when she saw Yunbei going up the mountain alone.
This is really like a pillow being given to you when you feel sleepy.
Huang Xiaocao didn't expect that Yunbei would take the initiative to walk up the mountain without her doing anything. She couldn't help but feel happy and followed her quietly.
Ever since the last time he was kidnapped, Yunbei had become much more vigilant. Some lessons only need to be learned once. While most people in this era are honest, there are also quite a few bad ones.
Therefore, she had decided long ago that it would be better to save some kindness.
Yunbei immediately noticed someone following him. Turning around, he saw a middle-aged woman. However, because she was short, she looked a bit like a child.
Yunbei didn't know Huang Xiaocao, so naturally he didn't say hello to her. Instead, he deliberately quickened his pace, wanting to test whether the man's target was her or someone else who was climbing the mountain with her.
Huang Xiaocao had no idea that Yunbei was testing her. When she saw Yunbei quicken his pace, she also quickened her pace a bit.
She had been in the family compound for many years and was very familiar with the mountain behind. When she saw the direction Yunbei was walking, she immediately came up with an idea that could easily complete the task assigned to her by Chu Feifei.
But to achieve this goal, she must follow Yunbei closely, or even better, walk side by side with her.
When Yunbei saw Huang Xiaocao chasing her, she immediately realized that this person must be coming for her.
In all likelihood, he wanted to take advantage of the mountain environment to attack her.
