Chapter 191

After Fu Wei came out of the Duke's Mansion, he went to the clinic.

When Fu Wei arrived at the clinic, it was almost dusk, the sky was setting in the west, and a faint golden light was scattered in front of the clinic.

Although there were fewer patients, there were still more than usual at this time of day. The pharmacists and doctors were all busy, and no one noticed that Fu Wei had entered the clinic.

Fu Wei stopped and looked around. When he saw Yu Ying, a smile appeared on his face. He raised his foot and walked towards her without hesitation.

Yu Ying was in the middle of a consultation when a patient stood up to leave. While she was drying her hands, another patient sat down and, without even looking up, asked, "Where do you feel unwell?"

The patient didn't say anything. Yu Ying put down the towel and looked up. There was no patient in front of her. It was clearly a pleasing beauty.

Yu Ying, who had been almost numb from seeing patients for days, suddenly brightened up her eyes and the corners of her lips slowly rose.

"Why didn't someone tell me before you came over?" There was a hint of joy in his tone.

Fu Wei: "I thought someone told you I was back, and I didn't know when I would be able to leave the Duke's Mansion, so I came straight here after leaving."

Seeing Yu Ying's face, his smile paused and he said, "Why are you even thinner than when you were in Guiyang?"

Yu Ying touched her cheek and asked doubtfully, "Probably not."

He didn't pay much attention to it. He then looked at Fu Wei and asked, "Brother, you're back too? How's your wound healing?"

"I'll go back first. There's nothing wrong with the wound." He glanced at the patient and asked, "When can I leave?"

At this time, the others also noticed that Fu Wei had returned. Hearing his words, the doctor beside him smiled and said, "There are not many patients left. We are enough. Director, please go back first."

There were indeed no more patients. Yu Ying thanked him for his hard work, stood up and said to Fu Wei, "I'll go clean up."

Fu Wei also stood up: "I'll go with you."

The clinic had a small rest room for everyone to rest in. Yu Ying shared a room with her eldest sister-in-law.

The eldest sister-in-law knew that her husband had been injured in Guiyang and had not yet fully recovered before he went to Pengcheng with his second brother. Although she did not say it, she was definitely worried. Now that she heard that they had returned to Yuzhang, she was absent-minded, so Yu Ying asked her to go back first.

After entering the house and closing the door, Fu Wei turned around and hugged Yu Ying from behind, burying his head in the crook of her neck. He closed his eyes and inhaled the faint medicinal fragrance on her body like an addict, his voice low, "When I saw you just now, I wanted to hold you like this."

Fu Wei was able to remain calm and composed when facing King Pengcheng in Pengcheng and in the face of danger, but every time he left the hospital and every time he parted ways, he would always feel uneasy in his heart.

There are many uncertainties about her. Just as she came suddenly, he was also afraid that she would leave unexpectedly.

Only when I hold someone in my arms do I feel real and secure.

This clinging attitude is not at all like Feng Jiyue. Fortunately, others couldn't see it, otherwise they would have thought they saw a fake Mr. Fu.

The familiar scent of cedar, fresh and fragrant, made Yu Ying feel soothed.

She raised her hand and placed it on the back of his hand, but it felt like she was touching a piece of ice.

Yu Ying asked gently, "Why are your hands so cold? You're not wearing the gloves I prepared for you."

When they were in Guiyang, she made gloves for him to wear to keep warm when riding horses.

Fu Wei: "I left the Duke's Mansion and was in such a hurry to see you that I forgot to put it on."

As he spoke, his warm breath fell on my neck, making me feel a little numb.

While Yu Ying was treating him, she used a stove to warm water on the table, and her hands were warm. She simply wrapped her hands around his, hoping to pass on some of the warmth.

After letting him hold her quietly for a moment, Yu Ying asked, "Did your trip to Pengcheng go smoothly?"

"Okay." After a pause, he added, "We can talk about these trivial matters when we have time."

Miscellaneous matters, we’ll talk about it when we have time…

So what we are doing now is serious business?

Still busy?

"Let go first, I'll change my robe to prevent the disease from spreading to you." I've been seeing patients all day, most of whom were suffering from colds, and some of the unclean things drifted into my body as the air blew.

After hugging for a while, Fu Wei's longing for him was temporarily relieved and he relaxed.

Yu Ying took off her outer robe and put on her own.

It was just a normal change of clothes, nothing was exposed, but Fu Wei's eyes never left her, which made her feel a little ashamed.

After putting on her coat, Fu Wei walked forward and slowly buttoned her shirt.

"I can do it myself." Yu Ying wanted to take over, but Fu Wei shook his head.

Yu Ying just let him do what he wanted. She raised her eyes to look at him. His hair was neatly tied, his eyebrows and eyes were clear and elegant, and he looked as bright as a jade tree in the wind, which was stunning.

He looked very serious, as if he was doing something detailed and important.

No matter when you look at it, Fu Wei is always pleasing to the eye.

After buttoning up his clothes, Fu Wei raised his eyes with a smile in his eyes: "Are you staring at me?"

Yu Ying turned around and hit him lightly: "Who told you to be good-looking?"

Fu Wei teased himself: "If I wasn't more attractive, I'm afraid you wouldn't even glance at me when you saw me in such a miserable state."

Yu Ying glanced at him with amusement: "I will indeed take a few more glances at you because you are stunning, but I will never like you just because you are good-looking."

When he heard her inadvertently say the words "I like you", the smile in Fu Wei's eyes became even more intense.

Fu Wei, who never asked about those sentimental topics before, suddenly asked: "So what do you like about me?"

Yu Ying smiled and said, "I just won't tell you."

The couple laughed and joked for a while before coming out of the room. After Yu Ying explained the affairs of the clinic to others, she left the clinic and got on a carriage with Fu Wei to go home.

*

All in all, the couple had not been apart for long, but Fu Wei had been away from home for more than half a year.

Little Funing didn't feel unfamiliar at all. After Fu Wei came back, he kept calling him "uncle" and followed Fu Wei around like a little tail.

When Mrs. Luo saw this, she laughed at little Funing and said that he was not as close to his father as she was to him.

Although Fu An was also happy, he became more calm after more than half a year of experience in the clinic.

Fu Wei looked at Fu An and said, "He has grown a lot taller."

Fu An still couldn't help grinning: "I'm already twelve years old, so I will naturally grow taller."

Fu An is now almost on par with Yu Ying.

Fu Wei smiled and said, "You've grown taller, but I don't know how much more knowledgeable you are. I'll give you another test tomorrow to see if you've neglected your studies."

When Fu Wei was still alive, Fu An not only studied medicine, but also took into account literature, mathematics, etc.

Fu An straightened his chest slightly, stood straighter, and acted like a good student. He smiled and replied, "Master, please ask me any questions."

Seeing the uncle and nephew acting as the student and the teacher, the others couldn't help laughing.

With the return of the brothers Fu Wei and Fu Zhen, there was more laughter in the Fu family.

Just after he finished his evening meal, people started sending him things, but Fu Wei refused them all.

After all, Mrs. Luo had been the mistress of a wealthy family, so she saw through the trick at a glance.

After her daughter-in-law took a bath and her son went to the study to handle official business, she brought some water to the study door and knocked twice.

Seeing her son come to open the door, she asked, "Are you busy?"

Fu Wei shook his head: "Not really busy."

He took two steps back to make way for his mother to enter the study.

Mrs. Luo entered the study, put down the water, and looked at her son. "People have been sending gifts to us one after another. Is it because you have done something great again?"

Fu Wei nodded: "I guess so."

Although Mrs. Luo didn't ask what the matter was, she didn't look happy either. Instead, she looked worried: "Mother doesn't hope for great wealth and honor, she just hopes that you will be safe and sound."

Many times, disaster comes with praise and is difficult to avoid.

Fu Wei knew that his mother was afraid that he would become too popular, as a big tree attracts the wind.

"Don't worry, mother. I know what's going on."

Luo sighed, a look of worry in her eyes. She said feebly, "I heard that Yuzhang and Wuling have formed an alliance. If you and Huo Shanrong face off in the future, will Sect Master Zhou choose Huo Shanrong or... you?"

After arriving in Yuzhang, Fu Wei slowly told his mother and elder brother about how his father had been framed.

It was because Mrs. Luo knew this that she was afraid and panicked.

Fu Wei smiled faintly and said in a gentle voice, "I went to the Duke's Mansion today, and Sect Leader Zhou also mentioned this matter. He said that the alliance was not true."

Luo was stunned. Just as she was about to speak, someone asked before her, "How can it not be true?"

The door was not closed. Yu Ying came to the study after taking a shower to look for Fu Wei and happened to hear these words.

He walked into the house, looked at Fu Wei, and said, "I have been secretly investigating these days. The alliance is indeed strange. They say it is an alliance, but no one from Wuling has come."

Fu Wei: "The alliance was the idea of ​​Crown Prince Zhou, but he acted first and reported it later. Because of a family scandal, Sect Leader Zhou suppressed the news. And because he knew I was concerned, he explained it to me today."

Upon hearing this, both the mother-in-law and the daughter-in-law were shocked.

Yu Ying frowned and asked, "What's going on in Prince Zhou's mind?"

Was he blinded by his second brother's achievements? Was he being pushed into a corner?

He looked at Fu Wei and asked, "So how did you deal with this alliance?"

Fu Wei: "Master Zhou said that in order to make Wuling retreat, he specially sent them to Pengcheng to win over the King of Pengcheng. If they win over the King of Pengcheng."

"At the same time, a letter was sent asking me to go to Pengcheng, as a challenge. I also asked, if I lose to Wuling, what will happen if Wuling really wins over the King of Pengcheng?"

Fu Wei smiled soothingly at his mother and wife, and continued, "Master Zhou meant that if I had lost to someone else, it would have been considered a mistake. But if I had lost to Wuling, I would have been useless. Fortunately, I won."

"Now that Wuling has lost, does that mean the alliance between Yuzhang and Wuling is no longer valid?" Yu Ying asked.

Fu Wei shook his head. "Wuling Huo, the prefect, is fickle and shouldn't be befriended. But the Crown Prince has been blinded by greed and has already signed the alliance. If he doesn't keep his word, he'll be laughed at and ridiculed as a villain, known for his fickleness. No one will dare befriend Yuzhang in the future."

"What Sect Leader Zhou didn't say is that he's dealing with this situation coldly. While we've officially formed an alliance, not a single soldier from Wuling will be used. Even if the mission is accomplished, rewards will be given based on merit. Wuling has done nothing wrong, so at most he'll be given the title of a meritorious official. There will be plenty of ways to deal with him in the future."

After hearing this, Luo Shi felt a little relieved and asked, "What if he wants to harm you, Erlang, in the future?"

Fu Wei suppressed his smile, and his voice became a little colder: "Master Zhou will not interfere in our grievances. We will solve it as we wish."

"In this way, it is natural to repay kindness with kindness and to avenge hatred with hatred."
