Chapter 143 Finale
After the flood, Shen Jinan's family returned to their daily peace.
Gu Yanqing and Shen Jinan worked together to open a school in the village, and they were willing to accept all children, no matter how old, to study.
For a time, there were no more children idling around in the village, only bursts of the sound of reading aloud.
The villagers were very grateful to Gu Yanqing and his wife. Even though Gu Yanqing insisted on not charging any fees, fresh fruits and vegetables were piled up in front of their door every day.
After Chunhetang opened, Shen Jinan went to see patients every day, and his reputation grew. People even came from several neighboring states from far away to see Shen Jinan for treatment.
Yue Buwei was still looking for herbs, but he would occasionally bring Huanhuan with him. Huanhuan could already recognize quite a few herbs, and Yue Buwei intended to take Huanhuan in as his own medicine boy.
But Gu Yanqing was reluctant to let Huanhuan suffer because of her young age.
"Huanhuan isn't little anymore!"
Huanhuan puffed out her cheeks and protested to Gu Yanqing.
"I want to be like my mother! Cure illnesses and save lives."
The little guy had a lot of fighting spirit. Gu Yanqing was happy to see it, so he just went with the grandfather and grandson.
Broken Tooth still guards the house and teaches everyone martial arts for self-defense from time to time. His martial arts skills become more and more powerful with each passing year, and he wields a big sword with great majesty.
"Once I have mastered martial arts, I can protect my mother and sister."
Suisui is more stable than before, but he also opens his heart to his family.
Hong Niangzi naturally came to Shen Jinan's place every day to eat and drink, and she was planning to poach Shen Jinan to do business together. Although Shen Jinan had no time to do business with her, she recommended someone to Hong Niangzi.
That's Li Chunhua.
Li Chunhua had bought a shop with the money she earned from setting up stalls, and also cooperated with Hongniangzi's restaurant to open three Manxiangju restaurants in Puzhou. Even Cao Xingzhu didn't dare to come and cause trouble.
That day, Shen Jinan got off work at the clinic and returned home in a carriage. He found that Gu Yan had already prepared the meal early in the morning, and everyone was sitting around the table.
“Girl Shen, come and eat!”
"Girl, are you tired today?"
"Mother! I just learned a poem. I'll read it to you."
The hustle and bustle in the courtyard almost broke through the wall. Gu Yanqing stood behind the dining table, like a tall willow tree, looking at her quietly with a smile.
She was pulled in by Sui Sui Huan Huan, and everyone pushed her to sit in the first seat.
"Why are you all so enthusiastic today?"
Shen Jinan smiled sweetly, sat down and looked at everyone.
"Today is your birthday, have you forgotten?"
Gu Yanqing poured a bowl of soup for Shen Jinan, his eyes full of smiles and doting.
Shen Jinan was stunned. She had been busy with many patients these days and was dizzy. She went to bed right after dinner when she came back. She didn't even think about her birthday.
"Time flies so fast! Today is my birthday."
She clapped her hands and tilted her head back slightly with emotion.
Everyone hurriedly took out the gifts they had prepared, even Sui Sui Huan Huan prepared one.
Shen Jinan looked at these priceless treasures in his arms, not knowing whether to laugh or cry.
"I feel embarrassed every time I receive such valuable and thoughtful gifts."
She winked slyly, and everyone laughed in unison.
The gift Sui Sui Huan Huan gave was a small portrait they had drawn together for Shen Jin An. Although the strokes were immature, they were very lively and captured Shen Jin An's elegant appearance to about 70%.
Shen Jinan couldn't let it go, so he folded it carefully and put it in his pocket.
After dinner, Shen Jinan went back to the house to rest, and Gu Yan also went into the house after washing the dishes.
"My dear, today is your birthday, do you have any wishes?"
He walked closer to her step by step, and the clear and pleasant breath immediately enveloped Shen Jinan.
Shen Jinan's cheeks flushed slightly, but she took the initiative to hug Gu Yanqing, "If I say my wish, can my husband fulfill it for me?"
Her eyes were full of smiles, Gu Yanqing's Adam's apple rolled, and the arms around her gradually tightened.
"My lady, please feel free to tell me. If I can do it, I will definitely satisfy you."
Gu Yanqing's voice was low, magnetic, alluring, and a bit tempting.
Shen Jinan, however, clutched his collar tightly and looked at him with sparkling eyes.
"Then could you please give me all the money you spent on writing letters?"
Gu Yanqing's face almost collapsed, "That's it? Madam, don't you want to think about it anymore?"
He took out his purse from his arms and willingly handed it to Shen Jinan.
Shen Jinan took the purse and saw his aggrieved look, and couldn't help but burst out laughing.
"Well, my wish is to live happily like this with my husband, my children, and everyone else."
After hearing this, Gu Yanqing's expression improved a little, and he hugged Shen Jinan's waist again, insisting that she say something more.
Shen Jinan had no choice but to reach out and hold Gu Yanqing's face, leaning forward to kiss her, "I hope that I can live happily and peacefully with my husband for the rest of my life."
These words finally made Gu Yanqing smile. He hugged Shen Jinan and pressed her on the bed, carefully helping her remove her hairpin and unbutton her coat.
Shen Jinan timidly grabbed her collar, "What are you going to do, my husband?"
Seeing her defensive look, Gu Yanqing smiled helplessly and tapped her forehead.
"What are you thinking about? You are so tired today, go to bed quickly."
Then he covered Shen Jinan with a quilt, took off his outer robe, lay down beside her, and gently patted her back like a child until she fell asleep.
Looking at her face, a faint warmth flowed through Gu Yanqing's heart. He would definitely be able to help Shen Jinan realize her wish.
On the second day, Shen Jinan got on the carriage to the town, but unexpectedly, Gu Yanqing also got on with him.
"My husband, are you going to town too? What are you going to town for?"
Shen Jinan tilted his head in confusion, but Gu Yanqing smiled mysteriously without saying a word.
When he arrived in the town, Shen Jinan learned that the prefect had hired Gu Yanqing as his legal advisor because of his successful flood control work and his reputation for opening a school.
After Gu Yanqing finishes teaching at school in the morning, he can come to the town in the afternoon to help the prefect solve his problems.
"Don't worry, my lady. All the money I earn will be given to you."
He gently held Shen Jinan's hand, kissed her on the forehead, and turned to go into the yamen.
Shen Jinan didn't expect that Gu Yanqing's status would be improved so quickly. Wouldn't it be just around the corner for him to be rehabilitated in the future?
Unexpectedly, half a month later, Gu Yanqing helped the prefect solve a big problem. The prefect immediately introduced Gu Yanqing to a nobleman. It happened that the nobleman had a good relationship with the prince and attached great importance to Gu Yanqing.
Gu Yanqing compiled the evidence he had quietly collected over the year into a book and handed it over to the noble.
After seeing this, the emperor was furious and immediately ordered a thorough investigation of the matter.
Although rehabilitation is just around the corner, Gu Yanqing's heart has already remained in Puzhou, by Shen Jinan's side.
He would rather stay with his family and continue to be a teacher and mentor in Puzhou, bringing new trends to Puzhou.
Shen Jinan was also happy for Gu Yanqing and decided to stay and continue working as a doctor in Chunhetang.
She came to work today. When Boss Wen of Chunhetang saw her coming, he immediately called Shen Jinan into the inner hall to discuss matters. He was about to retire, but there was no one to take care of the clinic, so he was willing to give the clinic to Shen Jinan.
Shen Jinan suddenly became the owner of Chunhetang.
The system suddenly appeared at this time, "Host, congratulations to the host for achieving a new achievement in life. The host is given another upgrade space, and has been upgraded to level five, the highest level."
From then on, Shen Jinan relied on his own skills and system to lead Gu Yanqing and others to live a happy life.
