Chapter 49 Liu Sixi is back



Liu Sisi took the beauty and skincare manual and left the space, heading towards Liu Dashi and Wu's room.

"Father, Mother, I want to open another shop," Liu Sisi said.

"Daughter, do you have any new ways to make money?" Liu Dashi and his wife asked Liu Sisi at the same time.

"Yes, look, this book was also given to me by the Snake Fairy. He said it's a beauty and skincare secret."

"The books are full of knowledge about skincare and beauty, so I want to open a beauty and skincare shop."

“But this is a high-end product. We need to open a shop in the county. I’m afraid it won’t sell in the town.”

Liu Sisi gave the book to Wu Shi, and the two of them looked through it.

“Daughter, if you want to open a shop, your parents will definitely support you. But do you know the words in this book?” Liu Dashi couldn’t read at all.

Ms. Wu recognized some of them, but not all of them.

Sure enough, when Liu Sisi handed the book to the Wu family, all the characters on the book changed from modern characters to the characters of the Tianlong Kingdom.

When Liu Sisi took it back and looked at it, she was extremely annoyed. She had been careless; she used to recognize it, but now she really didn't.

"Father, I forgot about this. Could you please find a tutor to teach me? Otherwise, I really don't recognize it. I only recognize a few pictures."

"Okay, Dad will go find it for you tomorrow."

"Sigh, it seems that opening the shop will have to be delayed for a while."

Liu Sisi finally understood what it meant to be a hopeless illiterate.

That's who she is now.

"Father, Mother, I'll go back to my room now."

Liu Sisi hung her head and went back to her online space.

Seeing her like this, Xi Yu asked her what was wrong.

Having learned the whole story, Xi Yu mercilessly mocked Liu Sisi.

"Ha ha……"

"You're hilarious! You're the biggest sucker in the Tianlong Kingdom. Why did you have to take a perfectly good book to your parents? Now look what happened, they can't understand it anymore!"

Liu Sisi grabbed Xi Yu's snake head and threw it into the nearby grove of trees.

"Hmph, let you laugh at me."

"My goodness! My snake body weighs several hundred pounds."

"What kind of decent family's daughter can casually grab a snake weighing hundreds of pounds and throw it out?! All the men in this Heavenly Dragon Kingdom would be scared to death by you. I think you're destined to be an old maid for the rest of your life."

Xi Yu continued his venomous remarks.

"Tch, if I can't get married, I won't get married. I'll just focus on making money. Do you think I can't live without a man?"

Liu Sisi said dismissively.

"Alright! I'm not teasing you anymore. So what are your plans now?" Xi Yu asked again after he had finished teasing.

"I'll ask my dad to hire a tutor for me to learn to read and write. After all, I'll be staying here all the time, and I can't be illiterate for the rest of my life!" Liu Sisi replied and then fell asleep.

Xi Yu brought a blanket from the supermarket and draped it over Liu Sisi.

"This girl, she gets it really fast."

Liu Dashi had intended to go find the Master early in the morning, but today Doctor Jiang and Liu Sixi returned.

This delayed things again.

Liu Sisi saw that her fifth brother was wearing a dark blue robe with wavy patterns on the cuffs.

He wore a black round hat, a belt with a bamboo pattern, and dark blue cloth shoes.

She was also carrying a small first-aid kit, and her overall demeanor seemed to have improved considerably compared to before.

Doctor Jiang was dressed similarly, clearly indicating that they were master and apprentice.

"Fifth Brother, Grandpa Jiang, you both look so handsome! They make my Fifth Brother look even more dashing," Liu Sisi praised.

"Little sister, if you like it, your fifth brother will give you some silver to buy it. Also, your fifth brother bought you a gold hairpin. See if you like it."

After Liu Sixi finished speaking, she took out a wooden box from her sleeve.

He then gave Liu Sisi another 10 taels of silver.

Liu Sisi stared in disbelief. "Fifth Brother, you've only been gone a short time! And you've already earned so much silver?"

"Yes, my master said I have talent, and he's been giving me all the money he earned from medical consultations lately. Anyway, my master isn't short of money," Liu Sixi replied.

"Yes, Sisi, just accept it! Anyway, this old man has no children, what would I need so much money for?"

"I still have more than a dozen pharmacies!" Doctor Jiang said.

It seems being a doctor is really lucrative! What's more, he's a legendary doctor, and at his age, he must have already made enough money.

No wonder this old man loves to travel around! It's just like how retired people travel everywhere these days.

It seems Fifth Brother has really latched onto a super powerful patron.

After Liu Sisi finished reciting it in her mind, she spoke again.

"Then I won't stand on ceremony with Fifth Brother. You must be craving rice noodles from home! Let's go to the shop to eat today."

Liu Dashi and Wu also inquired about the health of Doctor Jiang and asked about Liu Sixi's progress in studying medicine.

He then got into the carriage, and Liu Dashi drove it to the shop.

Upon arriving at the shop, Liu Sisi went to the kitchen to personally cook rice noodles for Doctor Jiang and Liu Sixi.

When Liu Sifu saw his fifth brother return, he put down his work and came over to greet his brother and Doctor Jiang.

He looked at his fifth brother and nodded. "Hmm, not bad, not bad. Fifth brother is already showing some of the qualities of a doctor. Keep up the good work."

Doctor Jiang stroked his beard and said.

"Sixi is very diligent and studies hard. He is also talented. He can now treat some simple ailments and take pulses. I estimate that his medical skills will even surpass mine in the future."

Liu Sixi didn't expect his master to have such high expectations of him. Doctor Jiang usually wouldn't say such praise; he was usually quite strict.

"Master, you flatter me. How can I compare to you?" Liu Sixi quickly replied.

As they were talking, Liu Sisi had already cooked the rice noodles.

"Fifth Brother, Grandpa Jiang, come and eat!" Liu Sisi said as she brought the rice noodles to the table.

"Ah, alright, Sisi's cooking is still the best. This old man just wanted to eat this." Doctor Jiang said and started eating.

The shop was getting more and more customers. When Liu Sheng and the others saw that guests had come to Liu Sisi’s house, they didn’t dare to go forward to clean up the dishes that Liu Sixi and her husband had just finished eating.

Liu Sisi noticed it.

"Liu Sheng, this is my fifth brother. Don't be shy. He's also one of your employers."

"I understand," Liu Sheng said, before stepping forward to tidy up the table. However, he didn't dare to look at Liu Sixi, feeling that she was too aloof and difficult to get along with.

Liu Sixi has always been the same. Except when she smiles at her family, her sister, and her master, she always appears calm, mature, and expressionless.

Perhaps because he is now a doctor, he smiles even less in order to appear more mature.

"Fifth Brother, will you come with me to buy clothes later? I want to buy a few nice outfits, otherwise they won't match the hairpin you bought me!"

"Okay, Fifth Brother will go with you. Master, you should go to the back courtyard to rest for a while! I'll go with my sister to buy clothes first, and also buy some things for our parents and elder brother and sister-in-law."

He was afraid that if he bought too much, he wouldn't be able to carry it all back, so he only bought Liu Sisi's items, and planned to buy the others in town when he got back.
