Inside the house, Aunt Wei stood there, holding the gifts, stunned for a long time.
She knew that this matter had nothing to do with the strategist, but whenever she thought of her son, she couldn't bring herself to smile at Yin Li.
In the days that followed, Yin Li would come over every day after finishing her work. Sometimes she would bring gifts for Wei Zhou and Aunt Wei, sometimes she would help them out, and sometimes she would just sit on the stone steps at the door for a while.
That day, he went to the Wei residence to deliver gifts as usual, but this time, the gifts were not received by the gatekeeper's large hands, but by a woman's hands.
Yin Li froze, then looked up and asked, "Aunt Wei, Auntie?"
His expression immediately became unnatural.
Aunt Wei smiled and said, "Strategist, do you have a moment?"
"Sigh, the homework the teacher assigned to Zhouzhou today was a bit difficult, and he can't do it. But I'm just a woman, how would I know these things? If you have time, could you come in and teach him?"
Yin Li's throat tightened, his eyes filled with disbelief. He nodded hurriedly and smiled, "I have time, I have time, I'll go right away."
"That would be wonderful. Perfect timing, dinner is ready at home, the strategist can eat with us and then we can teach him."
Yin Li paused for a moment, then heard him say, "...Okay!"
From the teahouse not far away, Luo Xi saw all of this.
“It seems that Yin Li is indeed fine.” Bai Hu said from the side, “He works very hard in the military camp, and you can see that he is trying his best to make up for it. He and Xiao Yi are definitely not the same kind of people.”
Luo Xi didn't pick up on that topic, but instead asked, "Any news from Jiu Xian?"
So many days have passed.
Baihu sighed and was about to say no when a man in black jumped out and said to Luo Xi, "Boss, the Lord has returned with Lord Wei and wants you to go to Doctor Nan's pharmacy."
Rosie's heart skipped a beat: "Who's injured? Is it serious?"
"It's Lord Wei, but it's not particularly serious."
"That's good," Luo Xi breathed a sigh of relief, stood up and walked towards the pharmacy: "Baihu, go to the Wei residence and tell Aunt Wei and the others."
"Yes, boss."
When Luo Xi arrived, Nan Wushang was cleaning the scars on Wei Qing's chest. The scars were red with some charred black, clearly indicating that he had been branded.
When Wei Qing saw Luo Xi walk in, his face, which was covered in sweat from the pain, immediately turned away and smiled: "Big, Big Boss, I didn't, I didn't say anything, anything about you to Xiao Yi."
He finally...didn't do anything wrong, that's good!
When the pain made his head spin, Wei Qing thought he wouldn't make it, but in the end, he pulled through.
"He did it?" Luo Xi looked at Wei Qing's belly, which was covered in so much flesh, and her gaze turned slightly cold.
What a Xiao Yi! He turns on you in an instant and even uses torture.
Wei Qing shook his head: "It's not Xiao Yi, it's his subordinate Chen Mo. For some reason, Xiao Yi listens to Chen Mo unusually. It was also through torture that he forced his subordinate to reveal the secret recipe for the seed-soaking product you have."
Rosie, however, was quite relieved: "Forced confession? Hmph, what's the use of forcing it? Do you know the secret formula?"
She always brought out readily available spiritual spring water, and among these people, apart from Chu Zhe, who was also born in the apocalypse, no one knew what was going on.
"Master!" Wei Qing was extremely anxious and struggled to sit up.
"Hey, don't move!" Nan Wushang roughly pushed him back, making Wei Qing wince in pain: "Can't you see I'm scraping away rotten flesh? Don't blame me if you tear your intestines out later."
Wei Qing shuddered, smiled apologetically at him, and didn't dare to move again, only instructing, "Master, you must hide the secret recipe well, don't let them find it."
In this year of severe drought, the sacred water is the lifeblood of Chaoyang Mountain Villa.
Luo Xi turned his mind to the space, and the crystal core that was once like a jade stone had grown into a half-meter tall plant that was floating in the air. Its branches were covered with layers of leaves, and it looked very vibrant.
At the base, a stream of water, about the thickness of a little finger, dripped down the stem and into a water vat placed on the ground, emitting an enticing fragrance.
It's magical and full of fantasy!
"Let him search; it's all in vain anyway," Luo Xi sneered.
Seeing her so determined, Wei Qing finally felt relieved.
Nan Wushang's eyes darted around, and he seized the opportunity to ask Luo Xi, "So, Boss, how exactly do you make that divine water?"
He cautiously probed, "Is it the same medicine you used to treat Yue Zheng Feiyuan's injuries?"
Luo Xi glanced at him sideways: "Didn't you already compare them for several days? What? Didn't you understand the comparison?"
Nan Wushang: "..."
So this guy knows everything? Isn't he just messing with us?
He simply dropped the pretense: "That's right, I did compare, and if I'm not mistaken, it's the same thing, including the potion you used to cure me."
“Am I right, Boss?” He looked directly into Rosie’s eyes.
Luo Xi knew that with his medical skills, he wouldn't be able to hide it for long: "Not bad."
Is this an admission? Nan Wushang's eyes lit up: "I knew it, I knew it."
He abandoned his injuries, dropped what he was holding, and rushed to Luo Xi: "Give me some, and I'll listen to you from now on."
Luo Xili ignored him, but took out a bottle and held it to Wei Qing's lips: "Drink this, and your injury will heal faster."
Nan Wushang: "..."
Wei Qing glanced at Luo Xi, who was expressionless, and then at Nan Wushang, whose face was already somewhat distorted and whose eyes were fixed on the bottle. He didn't know whether to drink it or not.
Suddenly, Nan Wushang rushed over in two quick steps and reached out to snatch it.
Rosie: "...Try stealing one!"
And here's a death stare.
"Fine, I'll take it!" Nan Wushang stared into Luo Xi's eyes and grabbed the bottle. However, just as Luo Xi's fist was about to hit his nose, he spun the bottle in his hand and shoved it into Wei Qing's mouth.
"This is my patient, why are you making trouble? Get out of the way." He said, pushing Rosie aside.
"Cough, cough..." Wei Qing was instantly choked and coughed, which caused his newly bandaged wound to reopen.
Why is he always the one who gets hurt?
"Ahem, Doctor Nan, ahem, shall I do it myself?"
I don't know whether more water goes into my mouth or my nose; it's so agonizing.
"You don't know what's good for you." Despite saying that, Nan Wushang casually tossed the bottle to Wei Qing with incredibly smooth movements, and then shamelessly moved closer to Luo Xi.
"Boss, look, this is a good thing. Everyone wants it. Rather than letting the imperial court or that Xiao Yi benefit from it, it's better to give it to me."
He tempted her, saying, "Look, if you give it to me, I can combine it with the existing medicinal materials to make even more medicine for you. Isn't that great?"
Pharmaceuticals? Rosie raised an eyebrow.
This seems good.
During those cold days, she caught a cold. Drinking the spiritual spring water didn't help, and she had to drink Chinese medicine for several days before she recovered. However, the taste was so bitter that it almost killed her.
