"It's me," Huo Jincheng laughed heartily, introducing his companions. "This is Brother Yang, Yang Jinyu, grandson of Doctor Yang of Pu Ren Tang, and an old acquaintance of mine. I haven't seen you for a few years, and I didn't expect to run into you here. I was just planning to find a teahouse to catch up, but I didn't expect to run into Madam Jian and her family. An unexpected encounter is worse than an invitation. I'm hosting you today. Would Madam Jian and Brother Ding do me the honor?"
Jian Ning was about to refuse, but Ding Youtian agreed immediately, "Sorry to bother you."
Since he agreed immediately, Jian Ning could only hold back her anger for the time being. The main reason was that they were not familiar with the person and he had a family to support. She didn't know that Ding Youtian liked to take advantage so much, so she glared at him secretly.
Ding Youtian clearly saw it but pretended not to see it, because he had his own plans in mind. Huo Jincheng's whole demeanor showed that he was either rich or noble. It would be against the will of heaven not to kill such a person!
Yang Jinyu bowed to Jian Ning and said, "Madam Jian's medical skills are superb. I admire her very much. Yesterday I went out to buy herbs. When I came back today, I heard the old man talking about Madam Jian. He praised her highly. I was thinking of visiting her someday, but I didn't expect to meet you so soon. Nice to meet you, and I'm glad you're safe!"
Seeing him dressed in elegant green, with a hint of nobility in his words and actions, Jian Ning saw that he didn't look inferior to Huo Jincheng, who was dressed in fine clothes and riding a horse. Instead, he looked gentle and refined in contrast. Jian Ning had a good impression of him, so he smiled and said, "You are too kind, Grandpa."
Yang Jinyu and Huo Jincheng had known each other since childhood. Huo Jincheng had once been a tutor to the Crown Prince. Huo Jincheng's father was a tutor, while Huo Jincheng's father was a censor at court, and the two families had always been close. His father had always hoped that he would pursue the imperial examinations, but he had no interest in a career in politics, instead fascinated by medicine. For the past few years, he had been holed up in a small town, training alongside his grandfather.
He naturally admired the person who even his grandfather praised highly, and also wanted to please and make friends with him. On the way to the teahouse, he saw Jian Ning holding Sanniu, so he took the initiative to hold Erniu. Huo Jincheng saw this and winked at him secretly, knowing that he had the idea of becoming his disciple.
