Yan Xiao casually exchanged a few words with Shen Qiyue, and then explained the future business model of Yuanyitang and the matters that needed attention to Zhao Qian. After that, she carefully hugged the jade ruyi she had just received and returned to her residence.

Shen Qiyue had gotten used to being Yan Xiao's little shadow, so she just naturally continued to follow along, which made Yan Xiao both amused and exasperated.

"I have some things to do and can't play with you. Why don't you go and play with Sister Qiao? She bought you so many things, she must really like you."

And that Granny Li, her son saved your brother's life after all, and now that he's ill, why don't you go visit her too!

Shen Qiyue looked at Yan Xiao's expression with some suspicion, wanting to confirm whether her sister-in-law was serious when she said that.

But since her sister-in-law said so, it really doesn't seem right for her not to go.

Shen Qiyue nodded, still somewhat confused, and was about to leave when Yan Xiao stopped her.

"You can't visit a patient empty-handed. Wait a moment, I'll get you something."

If Shen Qiyue was puzzled just now, after hearing these words, her puzzlement turned into horror.

Is her sister-in-law such a generous person?

She instinctively felt that things were not simple.

As Shen Qiyue was thinking this, she saw Yan Xiao finish speaking, grab a handful of soil from the flower bed next to her, and then turn around and go into the inner room.

Shen Qiyue: What are you trying to do?

Although Shen Qiyue realized that things were not simple, she was still confused, and Qianqiu Wandai was even more confused.

After Yan Xiao entered the house, she casually picked up a rather exquisite empty wooden box from the dressing table.

Then I took the contents out of the wooden box and put the handful of soil I had just grabbed from the flower bed into it.

Shen Qiyue and Qianqiu Wandai stood outside, looking at each other, their curiosity burning. Then Yanxiao came out with a wooden box filled with soil and handed it to Shen Qiyue.

When Shen Qiyue saw the wooden box in Yan Xiao's hand, she already had a guess in her mind. After taking it, she quickly opened it to confirm, and unsurprisingly, she saw the handful of soil.

Her expression froze for a moment, and she was about to ask Yanxiao what he meant when Yanxiao began to explain in a serious tone:

"This is no ordinary soil; it's the soil that my sister-in-law and I brought all the way from our hometown."

That's the place where your brother was born and raised; it has extraordinary significance, and its value cannot be compared with ordinary things.

We only have this small handful. We originally intended to bring it to your brother, but now we hear that Granny Li is ill. We're just two country folk, and we don't have anything worthwhile to offer. After thinking it over, this handful of soil is the most precious thing we have.

Now, we've reluctantly given everything to Granny Li, which shows how much we, as her sister-in-law and sister-in-law, value them. We also hope that this piece of land will help Granny Li recover soon.

Qianqiu Wandai, who witnessed Yanxiao just bringing a handful of dirt into the house:......

Staring wide-eyed at Yan Xiao's straight-up nonsense: ! ! ! ! ! ! !

Seeing that no one was responding to him, Yan Xiao awkwardly touched his nose.

"What's wrong? Is something the problem?"

"No!"

Shen Qiyue gripped the wooden box tightly, her eyes becoming incredibly determined:

"I will go and deliver this piece of land that we brought from afar to Granny Li. Homeland is good for people, and Granny Li will surely recover quickly."

"Okay, go ahead." Yan Xiao nodded with satisfaction.

After Shen Qiyue left, Yan Xiao turned to look at Qian Qiu Wan Dai, whose expression was strange. Her tone was light, but what she said made Qian Qiu Wan Dai's alarm bells ring:

"Those who follow me don't need to be too smart, but they must be obedient enough. Do you understand what I mean?"

The two quickly lowered their heads and replied:

"We understand, and we will serve you wholeheartedly and without the slightest disloyalty."

"Well, I hope you'll keep your word. I'm actually very easy to get along with, and I won't mistreat those around me, provided you don't intentionally do anything reckless."

"This servant dares not."

Yan Xiao had no problem with the two for the time being, and they served her quite well. However, she still needed to give her people a few pointers, as she didn't want them to gossip about her to others.

After reprimanding the two, she explained her subsequent rules:

"I don't like people entering my private space without permission. So, from now on, you are not allowed to enter my bedroom at will, and you are not allowed to let anyone in."

If you need anything, knock on the door from the outside. You can only come in after you have my permission, understand?

Of course, no one dared to object for thousands of years to come, and they quickly nodded in agreement.

After saying what she wanted to say, Yan Xiao went into the bedroom, leaving Qian Qiu Wan Dai to watch from the outer room.

Having just obtained the jade ruyi, she naturally wanted to absorb some of its spiritual energy immediately. Even if she couldn't level up right away, increasing the concentration of her supernatural energy would be good.

Now that Yuan Yi Tang has opened, if a big business comes in later, the current basic supernatural abilities are indeed not enough.

When her hand touched the jade ruyi again, she immediately felt that pure and rich spiritual energy once more. This time, she didn't hold back and directly began to absorb it using her supernatural energy.

After about half a cup of tea's time, the jade ruyi in front of Yanxiao, which had originally gleamed with a warm luster, had completely lost its original brilliance and looked like an ordinary sculpture.

As for Yan Xiao's superpower level, it did not reach level two, but only the peak of the initial stage.

After absorbing the spiritual energy from the jade ruyi, Yan Xiao let out a long sigh of relief, feeling much more comfortable and relaxed all over, a stark contrast to when she absorbed zombie crystal cores before.

However, this method is too expensive. She is only at the beginner level now. The spiritual energy she needs to upgrade in the future is not as simple as one plus one. How many jade ruyi like this would she need?

Although it can replenish ordinary supernatural energy and reduce the cost of money, preventing her from going bankrupt for the sake of upgrading, finding so many jade artifacts for her future needs will not be an easy task.

There's no use thinking about it too much now; we can only take it one step at a time.

She put away the jade ruyi, which had become almost like an ordinary stone, under the bed, intending to restore it to its original state after she had cleansed herself of the poison.

After doing all that, she remembered to carefully examine the jewelry the male lead had prepared for her, wanting to check if there were any jade pieces or the like.

The only items she received were some silver ornaments and handmade hair accessories, all of which were styles typically worn by married women. The more she looked at them, the uglier her face became.

Although I didn't have high hopes for the male lead's taste, this is still...

"Straight men of steel are destined to be single forever!!!"

Yan Xiao was speaking when she suddenly realized something was wrong and quickly corrected herself:

"Pah, pah, pah, children say the darndest things. I should be wishing him a happy ending with the female lead."

Thinking of the female lead, Yan Xiao immediately perked up.

"I should be free these next couple of days, and since I'm just killing time anyway, I might as well go see what the female lead is up to."

Thinking it over and acting on it, Yan Xiao took a few steps to the door, looked at the Thousand Autumns and Ten Thousand Generations outside, and asked:

Do you know where Dr. Jiang lives?
