The next morning, Gu An'an took the children back to the county town.
Although Jiang Mingyi didn't mention her headache again, who knows if the child was just putting on a brave face so as not to worry her?
Gu An'an drove the carriage back and saw the fine horse-drawn carriage parked in front of Tian Bu'er's house in the distance.
The novel only mentions that Jiang Mingyi had no other choice but to seek refuge under the tutelage of Xiaoyao Hou.
Things are different now, and Gu An'an felt that she didn't need to worry so much.
Besides, the Marquis of Xiaoyao wasn't after this child.
Just as Gu An'an stopped the carriage, someone rushed out from the neighboring courtyard, "You're finally back! If you hadn't come back, I would have come looking for you."
It's not from Medicine King Valley.
Medicine King Valley is known for producing extraordinary doctors, but these doctors are all quite eccentric.
People who are capable often have a bad temper.
Unlike Tian Bu'er, who is far too soft-hearted.
They don't look like people from Medicine King Valley at all.
"Old Tian, put me down. I can walk by myself."
Tian Bu'er grabbed Jiang Mingxu and got out of the car, saying, "This way we can get there faster."
With his senior brother's bad temper and the carefree Marquis on top of that, if it weren't for his persuasive words, he would have left long ago, okay?
However, this was merely wishful thinking on Tian Bu'er's part.
Jiang Mingxu had no intention of finding himself a mentor.
There's a saying that a teacher for a day is a father for life, so wouldn't that be like finding yourself a father figure?
He doesn't want to.
"Mom, save me, save me!" The little boy grabbed Gu An'an's arm as if clinging to a last straw.
Seeing the pitiful look on his face, Gu An'an stopped him, saying, "Dr. Tian, Mingxu is still young."
Tian Bu'er knew that if he wanted to take the child away, he would definitely have to get past Gu An'an. "Madam Gu, this child is very intelligent, and my senior brother is also very influential. As long as you are willing to take him as your disciple, no one will dare to bully your family in the future."
Who dares to bully the people of Medicine King Valley?
"Madam, don't listen to his one-sided story. Medicine King Valley is indeed highly regarded, but it also has many enemies."
"Hey, you surnamed Xiao, don't cause me any trouble here."
A clear laugh rang out in the carriage. "What? Am I wrong? Medicine King Valley is no longer what it used to be. Even your master, the direct disciple of Medicine King Valley, couldn't protect that pure land. How much less can you two good-for-nothings?"
The beaded curtain swayed slightly, and the outstretched hand made Gu An'an momentarily lose her composure, but she still couldn't see what the person inside looked like.
"I advise you, Madam, to be more cautious."
"Xiao Yao!"
Tian Bu'er was extremely angry. "If you dare to talk nonsense again, believe me, I'll dismantle your carriage!"
"Heh, I knew Medicine King Valley was a fallen phoenix, worse than a chicken. Your master was so glorious back then. Now, no matter how much you hate me, all you can do is dismantle my carriage. You don't even dare to lay a hand on me."
This is extremely insulting.
Gu An'an didn't know how strong Xiaoyao Hou was, but she thought he was incredibly good at talking.
Look, he's so angry he can't even speak, he's trembling there.
"Nothing is more important than this, why bother with all the fuss?"
Gu An'an couldn't help but look over when she heard the clear voice. She was stunned when she saw the person who came out. This was Tian Bu'er's senior brother. How come he looked much younger than Tian Bu'er?
The person who came out of the courtyard was dressed in a plain-colored long robe, with a scholarly air about him, and looked to be no more than twenty years old.
If it weren't for that last sentence, Gu An'an really wouldn't have been sure.
Seeing his senior brother come out, Tian Bu'er was a little worried. Actually, it didn't matter if he was scolded a few times, but he was afraid that if his senior brother came out and started fighting with that Xiaoyao Hou, his courtyard would suffer in the end. Who would he be able to reason with then?
Gu An'an looked at the person at the door, but was also being looked at by that person. "Where's the child?"
"This kid is disobedient, but as you know, senior brother, every genius has some degree of..."
Zheng interrupted Tian Bu'er, saying, "I'm talking about the child you wrote to me asking me to treat."
This made Gu An'an realize, "Here, please help my Yi'er with his diagnosis. His headache flared up again yesterday. Although the symptoms are milder than before, it's not good for him to be plagued by chronic illnesses all the time."
Zheng glanced at the eloquent woman, nodded slightly, and said, "Come in." He didn't even look at the luxury car.
The carriage seemed to quiet down, until everyone had boarded, at which point a faint voice broke out, "I thought you were truly detached from worldly desires."
Those three thousand strands of black hair are still there.
A deep laugh came from inside the carriage.
Gu An'an waited anxiously.
It's perfectly normal for a renowned doctor to have a temper and not like having outsiders present during treatment.
Jiang Mingzhu was asked to take her younger siblings home, but the child was worried, so Gu An'an waited there with the three children.
Gu An'an's heart tightened when she heard the muffled groan coming from inside the house.
“My senior brother is a highly skilled doctor and is treating that child, so Madam Gu doesn’t need to worry.” Tian Bu’er’s gaze fell on Jiang Mingxu. “You brat, are you worried? If you agree to become my senior brother’s apprentice, I can take you in to have a look.”
Jiang Mingxu was somewhat worried, but he wasn't stupid.
I'm in high demand now.
"Let me go in and take a look before I decide whether I want to become his apprentice. What if he's just a fame-seeking opportunist?"
Jiang Mingzhu couldn't help but correct him, "It's 'seeking fame and fortune'." This little guy doesn't like reading, so he misuses the words he learns, and he even uses them incorrectly.
The little boy looked slightly embarrassed and glared at Tian Bu'er. "I'm in a bad mood. I'm going home to sleep. I don't want to be your apprentice."
