Zhao Qinghe shook her head. "No, you're just a bit too hot-tempered. Just drink more chrysanthemum tea and you'll be fine."

I'm going into the mountains tomorrow, it will take at least three days and maybe five. You should stay home and rest.

If you're really bored, you can take a stroll in the back mountain.

There are quite a few medicinal herbs planted here; you can pick some when you have time. This hilltop belongs to the Zhao family and is well-maintained, so you don't need to worry about snakes, insects, or rodents when you go up.

Of course, just to be safe, you should bring guards and the Zhao family's servants with you; they are very familiar with this mountain."

Bai Hetang became anxious when he heard that Zhao Qinghe was going to go deep into the mountains for such a long time.

He really wanted to go into the mountains with Zhao Qinghe, but was ruthlessly rejected.

Just kidding, Zhao Qinghe wants the valley; that's the Zhao family's way out for themselves.

How can you just bring anyone over?

Even if Bai Hetang hadn't become a proper son-in-law of the Zhao family yet, Zhao Qinghe had no intention of bringing Bai Hetang, this "burden," along.

In Zhao Qinghe's mind, Bai Hetang was indeed a burden, unable to carry anything, and could only sit in the pharmacy as a doctor.

After Zhao Qinghe took Bai Hetang's pulse, she found that Bai Hetang's body was indeed quite weak, which was also related to the fact that he had been traveling too fast recently.

I didn't get a proper rest.

In addition, being a virile young man, Bai Hetang must have been having quite a few erotic dreams lately.

They were both medical students; once she took a pulse, nothing could escape her notice.

Come to think of it, Bai Hetang is not young anymore. Let alone getting married, he doesn't even have a maidservant by his side.

Yes, I need to go and come back quickly so I can return to the capital. Getting married in the capital is something I need to get done quickly.

Zhao Qinghe wanted to have more children before Bai Hetang's health deteriorated further.

Zhao Qinghe was very skilled with poisons, but as for medical treatment, she didn't think she had mastered that skill.

Having made up her mind, Zhao Qinghe's attitude became even more resolute.

No matter how much Baihetang pleaded and begged, it was no use; it was decided that he would stay at Qingshan Xiaozhu to rest.

Of course, Bai Hetang, who was disliked for being weak, would never know Zhao Qinghe's thoughts; if he did, he would surely be furious.

They're not even married yet, and she's already complaining that he's not good enough. What's wrong with him?

How could a young master from a family of traditional Chinese medicine practitioners not be able to cure his physical weakness? Who does he think he is?

He's very strong, extremely strong. If he hadn't been working day and night lately, not eating or sleeping well, would he be so weak?

The next day, Zhao Qinghe got up and set off before dawn. By the time Bai Hetang got up, Zhao Qinghe had already been gone for an hour.

"This woman is really determined to go into the mountains by herself; that's such a dangerous thing."

Bai Hetang muttered through gritted teeth.

He immediately thought of the guards he had brought and asked if anyone had followed him into the mountains. When he received a negative answer, Bai Hetang became angry.

"Useless! That's your future young mistress. If she doesn't allow you to follow her, can't you just secretly follow her?"

"If anything happens to her, your young master will have to become a widower."

The guard clasped his hands and said, "Young master, the young mistress's martial arts are really too high. It's not that we didn't follow her, but we were discovered as soon as we caught up."

The young mistress brought a tiger into the mountains with her; judging by the tiger's imposing presence, she probably wouldn't have any surprises.

Baihetang was so frustrated that he pounded the bed.

"Aww..."

Bai Hetang accidentally used too much force and injured his wrist.
