Chapter 93: A Carefree Romantic Journey among Flowers·Twenty-one
Shang Qingya said, "This horse belongs to you, sir. You are a great horseman and you are worthy of it. You can take it away! But you must leave the person here! Since it has been delivered to my door today, no matter if it is a forced melon or a forcible bully, Qingya will never let it go easily!"
Xiao Hao restrained his expression and swallowed silently.
Are all the women on the grassland so bold? Such a straightforward and bold confession of feelings really caught people off guard.
Shang Qingya's words were actually a bit ambiguous. I don't know if the person she was talking about was herself or Lu Miaozi. This person must not be mistaken and must be clarified.
"...The owner is so straightforward, I am flattered."
Qingya smiled at him lightly, with a bit of sunshine in her charming voice, "The Wanhua Valley is full of beautiful and talented people. People who come out of the Wanhua Valley should be treated differently."
Xiao Hao was even more confused after hearing this. Shang Qingya is not the kind of person who beats around the bush. She speaks and acts directly. She keeps being so vague... Xiao Hao inadvertently glanced at Lu Miaozi who was worried next to him.
Tsk, this young couple quarreled, and used him as a shield!
Shang Qingya must want to provoke Lu Miaozi. Xiao Hao's eyes moved between the two of them, He smiled gently and said, "It seems that the owner has a good impression of me, Wanhua. Speaking of which, Wanhua Valley and Pegasus Ranch are both neutral forces. They do not participate in the disputes of the world, and they should be in harmony. Today I have seen the owner's beautiful face, extraordinary grace, and extraordinary temperament. I wonder if the owner is interested in... marrying Wanhua?"
Shang Qingya's eyes lit up. She saw Xiao Hao secretly giving her a look, and she reacted immediately with her sharp mind. 's skin was flushed with a faint red, with a bit of girlish shyness, but also with a charming and passionate youthful feeling, "Sir, do you really want to do this? Qingya..." She turned her head away and said happily, "Of course... of course I am willing!"
The heroes behind her were shocked, and their admiration was shattered. When they thought about how they could not compare with the master of Wanhua Valley in terms of martial arts, talent, conversation, wisdom, and appearance, they were even more worried.
This... If Wanhua and Pegasus Ranch were to marry, the world would definitely praise them as a talented man and a beautiful woman, and there would be no place for them!
"Beautiful owner! Think about it again!"
"Owner, I, I am obsessed with you..."
"Sir! No! This is not possible!"
Lu Miaozi screamed and quickly pulled Xiao Hao aside.
Xiao Hao deliberately looked surprised and asked, "Oh? What's wrong with that?"
Lu Miaozi stammered, turned around in a hurry, and stamped her feet, "This, isn't appropriate! The gentleman is a hermit who lives in seclusion, and Qing... the owner of the mall is a female knight riding on horseback. This... isn't appropriate, isn't appropriate!"
Xiao Hao touched his chin and said seriously, "But, I admire the owner's character very much. Compared with Cihang Jingzhai and Momen, I think a beautiful and elegant woman like the owner is the best candidate."
Lu Miaozi looked embarrassed, his eyes widened, but he had to admit, "The owner is indeed very good..."
Xiao Hao had seen through his thoughts. Although Lu Miaozi was fascinated by Zhu Yuyan, since he was disappointed with Zhu Yuyan, he must have gradually remembered the true goodness of Shang Qingya, and he was not cruel to her in his heart.
He had let Qingya down, and this time he followed him to Pegasus Ranch, most likely because he wanted to repay his debt. But this man was frightened when he saw the real master, and if he didn't help him, they would never achieve the right result in their lifetime.
Xiao Hao cleared his throat and asked Lu Miaozi, "Then Master Lu thinks that Wanhua is not worthy of Pegasus Ranch?"
"No, no, no..." Lu Miaozi denied it repeatedly. After thinking it over, he couldn't find any fault with Xiao Hao. It seemed that he was a perfect match for Shang Qingya. "... Well, since you are so willing, I... I wish you two will be together forever."
Shang Qingya was so angry that she whipped him with a horse whip and said angrily, "You are such a cowardly and treacherous man. You are going to piss me off to death!"
Lu Miaozi was stunned and let her whip him for a while. He said disappointedly, "You are one of the best in the world in terms of character, talent, and martial arts. You are a good match."
Shang Qingya was furious when she saw that he did not dodge or avoid her. "You have been hiding from me for a year. If I don't catch you today, will you hide from me for another ten, twenty, or thirty years?"
Lu Miaozi was ashamed. "I can't treat you wholeheartedly. I am destined to let you down." Zhu Yuyan occupies a supreme position in Lu Miaozi's heart. Even if he has given up on her, he cannot fully respond to Shang Qingya's feelings for him unless there is nothing in the world.
Xiao Hao shook his head helplessly. Lu Miaozi was obsessed with a knot in his heart. In the original book, he delayed Shang Qingya for thirty years, causing her to die without getting what she wanted. Lu Miaozi only understood the truth of cherishing the people around her after her death, and could only compensate her daughter more. What can't be said between these two people? Why do the mother-in-law and mother have to delay each other?
Don’t be fooled by the proud and experienced look of Lu Miaozi after several decades, because he made all these by himself when he was young.
Xiao Hao was determined to help them both, and said to Shang Qingya: “Marriage is a big deal, please inform the elders in your family. Wanhua wants to form an alliance with Pegasus Ranch, but I am interested in poetry, wine, flowers and tea, and have no mood for love. Mr. Lu, the guest of Wanhua, is the best craftsman in the world, and he is upright. Both the black and white worlds admire him very much, and he has a good relationship with the owner. Wanhua will use 100 baskets of the best royal bamboo cultivated by Wanhua. "I'm offering grass seeds, Qianji Pavilion livestock agency, 50 green chicong horses, 100 purple yanliu horses and Wanhua precious elixir as betrothal gifts to the farm owner. What do you think?"
Everyone gasped. Wow... Wanhua is really rich and generous. It sounds like the best horses. He offered 150 horses at once without blinking an eye. If he raised them as war horses to supply military commanders, how much profit would he bring!
Pegasus Ranch has been engaged in the supply of arms and war horses. Such a huge fortune given away for free would make anyone tempted! There are
countless horses in Xiao Hao's gang's territory. It is not difficult to give them away, but he has always had high standards and is not interested in low-level horses at all. He is also unwilling to ride them out, so he has never caught any. As a picky owner, the worst horse he has ever ridden is Yu Huiyao...
Before Lu Miaozi came back to her senses, she murmured, "What? Sir, you, you don't want to...? You, you mean... me?"
Xiao Hao nodded and said seriously, "If you hate the owner, you can refuse now. I will never force you."
Lu Miaozi quickly shook her head like a wave drum, "No! I don't hate her at all!"
Shang Qingya was delighted to hear that.
"Oh, then are you willing to marry her?" Xiao Hao asked again.
"I..." Lu Miaozi hesitated again, unable to make a decision. Only at this moment did he truly consider the importance of Shang Qingya and Zhu Yuyan in his heart. Zhu Yuyan played with him and applauded him, but Shang Qingya was sincere to him; but his heart had been completely occupied by Zhu Yuyan, so could he really have room for anyone else?
Xiao Hao patted him on the shoulder and comforted him: "The past is like a passing cloud. You once fell into the quagmire, but now you have climbed out of it. As long as you clean up, why don't you dare to go on the road again?"
Lu Miaozi said: "I... I am willing!"
Although everyone was depressed, they still congratulated them and congratulated them on finally becoming a couple.
Xiao Hao said goodbye to Shang Qingya: "This matter is settled. I will go back to Wanhua to prepare the betrothal gifts and present them soon! It's rare for the owner to take the initiative to ask for it, so I have to give him face. You will keep this person, but I will take the horse away!" Ba Hongchen nudged his back with his horse's nose behind him, as if he was dissatisfied with him leaving him alone for so long.
Lu Miaozi blushed and said in embarrassment: "Sir! I should be the one to pay for the betrothal gift!"
Xiao Hao waved his hand at him and said with a smile: "I have discovered those things in your Qianji Pavilion a long time ago. It is not a loss to use them as betrothal gifts. As for the others, I admire the heroism of the owner and sponsor them as a friendship!"
With that, he rode on Ba Hongchen and rode away.

Xiao Hao did not run too far. When he reached the canyon, he dismounted and read a divine move back to Wanhua. Cihang Jingzhai came to the door, and Sun Simiao could not be left alone to face them for too long.
Wanhua Valley was no different from when he left. It was still a peaceful fairyland. I think Cihang Jingzhai, who was fooled, did not dare to take action here.
Seeing him return, Sun Simiao was surprised and delighted, and stepped forward to greet him, saying, "Valley Master, you are back so early! It's only the third day, and I've been waiting for you to come back! A group of fairies came to the valley and are now living in the Water Moon Palace in the west. Why didn't Master Lu come back with them?"
Xiao Hao bowed respectfully to him and replied, "Mr. Sun, please don't embarrass me. Your reputation is far-reaching, and the ideas of the Wanhualijing Yidao are also consistent with ours. Your medical ethics are closely related to me. Although we have never met before, we are like master and disciple. It is really shameful for you to call me like this. Instead, I should call you Master."
The oath of Wanhua's admission was the first volume of "Prescriptions for Emergencies" written by Sun Simiao. During the few days in the valley, Sun Simiao was very happy to see that the contents of Wanhua's "Medical Classics" coincided with his own thoughts.
"Master Lu is so lucky to have such a good fate. He will stay at Pegasus Ranch for the time being. I was worried that Mr. Sun might run into trouble in the valley, so I hurried back to Wanhua alone."
Sun Simiao stroked his beard and said, "So that's how it is. No wonder when I was studying the Medical Classics, I always felt that the person who compiled the book was another me. It turned out that it was written by you. I don't deserve the title of master!"
Xiao Hao said ashamedly, "This is the book written by the hard work of our predecessors . " The Medical Classics, I have no credit for it. Your virtue is included in the Medical Classics. A teacher who teaches you one word is still a teacher. I hope you will not despise me!"
Sun Simiao was shocked. He smiled helplessly and quickly helped him up and said, "This... How can I be your master! I may not be better than you in medicine, so there is no distinction between master and apprentice. Since you are devoted to Wanhua, how about we just practice medicine and not talk about seniority?"
Xiao Hao nodded in agreement.
The two of them talked while walking. While they were talking, Fan Qinghui happened to pass by Xunxianjing. Seeing them walking towards Sanxingwangyue together, she suddenly perked up. She hesitated for a moment and did not immediately catch up with them, but fell far behind them, wanting to observe.
Xiao Hao found the extra name in the target list and talked about medicine with Sun Simiao calmly.
"Master Sun, what do you think is the way to be a doctor?" Sun
Simiao said, "Laozi said, 'If a person does good deeds, people will reward him; if a person does good deeds in secret, ghosts and gods will reward him. If a person does evil deeds in public, people will reward him; if a person does evil deeds in secret, ghosts and gods will harm him. Doctors should save people from suffering and avoid talking about right and wrong and showing off their reputation. Otherwise, the Yin and Yang will reward you and it will be difficult to get good results.'"
Xiao Hao smiled and said, "Master Sun's words are insightful! But if a doctor is proud of his own virtues and cures a patient by chance, he will hold his head high and think he is unparalleled in the world, what will happen?"
