When Li Xiyue learned that Li Bowen had died at the farm, she felt a surge of relief. Finally, that family of four had all gone to hell.

A family should always be together.

Having avenged her great grudge, Li Xiyue had no more worries in her heart. She spent her days treating the villagers' illnesses in the village, and every few days she would go to the county to sell grain to earn money. She was also having a sweet romance with Chu Xun, and her life couldn't be more comfortable.

That day, Li Xiyue was in the courtyard processing medicinal herbs while listening to Erniu recite her lessons.

Erniu really has a talent for studying medicine. In just a few months, she has learned to recognize all the medicinal herbs. Li Xiyue then asked her to teach and memorize the effects of all the medicinal herbs. She was taught five kinds every day, and she has already memorized hundreds of kinds.

There was a sudden commotion outside the courtyard. Li Xiyue wondered what was going on and was about to get up to see when Xu Jianmin walked in. She was pleasantly surprised, "Uncle Jianmin, is your leg all better?"

"Okay, I can stand up now." Xu Jianmin came to Li Xiyue, followed by Xu Xiangyang and Gao Xiulan, as well as the villagers who came over after seeing that Xu Jianmin's leg had recovered.

Uncle Xu from the pharmacy also came out, extremely excited, "Great, great, Jianmin's leg is finally healed."

"Dr. Li, thank you so much. You are my great benefactor, and I will never forget this kindness in my life," Xu Jianmin said emotionally.

If Li Xiyue hadn't scolded him awake, he would still be hiding in the house. If Li Xiyue hadn't healed his leg, he would have been crippled for life and would never be able to stand up proudly again.

Xu Xiangyang was carrying large and small bags of chicken, duck, fish, meat, candy, and pastries. "Dr. Li, these are gifts to thank you."

Li Xiyue felt a little embarrassed when she saw so many things, saying, "This gift is too much."

"It's nothing. You saved my uncle, what's a little bit of this?" Xu Xiangyang put the things on the table in the yard.

Xu Jianmin glanced at Gao Xiulan behind him, "Dr. Li, we have another matter we'd like you to witness today."

"What is it?" Li Xiyue asked.

Xu Jianmin turned to Gao Xiulan and then knelt down on one knee. "Xiulan, please marry me."

His actions stunned everyone, including Li Xiyue.

People in this era still held relatively feudal ideas. It was rare for a man to kneel down and propose to a woman. You could see it in the city, but in the countryside, it was absolutely unheard of.

"Jianmin, what are you doing? Get up!" Gao Xiulan was initially surprised, but then realized that his kneeling was a serious matter, so she quickly went to pull him up.

Xu Jianmin refused to get up, and held her hand, saying, "Xiulan, listen to me."

Gao Xiulan looked around and saw that the crowd of onlookers was growing larger and larger. She felt a little embarrassed. Li Xiyue came over and comforted her, "Don't worry, let Uncle Jianmin finish speaking."

With Li Xiyue's encouragement, Gao Xiulan calmed down a little.

Xu Jianmin said, "Four years ago, I collapsed, and you came to my side without hesitation. No matter what happened, you never abandoned me and firmly chose to be with me. Now, I have finally stood up, and I want to propose to you in front of everyone. Xiulan, you are the best woman in the world, and I, Xu Jianmin, will never let you down in this life!"

“Brother Jianmin…” Gao Xiulan was so moved that she cried.

Gao Xiuzhi also cried. Her sister's hard work and dedication over the years had finally paid off, and she had seen the light at the end of the tunnel.

"This is a good thing, why are you crying?" Xu Jianhua squeezed his wife's hand to comfort her.

Gao Xiuzhi said, "I cried because I was happy. My little sister has finally made it through."

Xu Jianhua sighed heavily, "Yes, it really wasn't easy."

Looking at Gao Xiulan, who was crying her eyes out, Xu Jianmin continued, "Xiulan, you've had a tough time these past few years. I will make it up to you for the rest of my life and give you a good life. Xiulan, please marry me, okay?"

"Marry him!" Huang Xinrui started from the crowd.
