Chapter 84: Walking

When Jiangli came in, Qiao Jin had many silver needles stuck in his body, and because of acupuncture, his upper body was naked. Jiangli

paused, hesitating whether to go out.

Yu Chi was sitting next to him, flipping through a book, without even raising his eyes.

"Sit down, Miss Jiangli."

Gu Jue sat next to Yu Chi, very close to Yu Chi, and read with Yu Chi.

Listening to Yu Chi's words, he stood up, moved a stool for Jiang Li, and placed it in front of Qiao Jin's bed.

Jiangli thanked him, and watched Gu Jue return to Yu Chi before she asked.

"Sir, Qiao Jin's illness..."

Her voice was very soft and gentle, as if she was afraid of waking Qiao Jin up.

Yu Chi turned the pages of the book.

"She won't die, don't worry."

He still had to stay here for a month. Qiao Jin's illness was indeed a bit tricky, but it was not incurable. After

being soaked in Jiang Li's demon pill for so many years, Qiao Jin's body is better now than before.

But after the demon pill leaves his body, his body will slowly become weaker and weaker, and eventually the old illness will recur and be difficult to treat.

When City Lord Qiao came in, he was holding a large bag of medicine in his hand and placed it in front of Yu Chi. Yu Chi's eyes turned from the book to the medicine.

"Take it three times a day, drink it for seven days first, and then change the prescription to see how he is doing after seven days. Boil it on high heat for a quarter of an hour, then simmer it on low heat..."

Yu Chi's voice echoed in the quiet house, and City Lord Qiao carefully wrote down Yu Chi's instructions.

City Lord Qiao loved his children very much, and he didn't understand why Jiang Li, who couldn't speak before, suddenly could speak after Qiao Jin went to look for him.

Even his ears were healed and he could hear sounds.

He also didn't understand why Qiao Jin, who had been in good health for so many years, suddenly became like this again.

When he took the medicine out, his eyes stayed on Jiang Li for a moment, his eyes were deep, and in the end he left without saying anything.

Yu Chi would come to give acupuncture to Qiao Jin every morning. Sometimes Jiang Li was here, sometimes City Lord Qiao was here, and sometimes it was Qiao Qing.

Seeing the many silver needles stuck in Qiao Jin's body, Qiao Qing felt pain just by looking at it.

When Qiao Jin was conscious, she lay beside Qiao Jin's bed and told Qiao Jin that he was like a hedgehog.

Qiao Jin was so angry that his blood almost flowed backwards.

Gu Jue slapped him on the head. Yu Chi asked him to hit him.

"You have a strong liver fire. I have told you so many times to be calm."

Qiao Jin had no words to say. After that, Qiao Qing was ordered not to come to see Qiao Jin without someone to accompany her.

Half a month later, Qiao Jin could walk everywhere.

He was happy, and so were City Lord Qiao and Jiang Li.

It is said that when Qiao Jin met Gu Jue, he held Gu Jue's hand and shook it, saying thank you, thank you for his sweetheart who saved his life, and Gu Jue was a little overwhelmed by his enthusiasm.

Qiao Jin thought he would have to spend the rest of the month in bed, but who knew he would get better and better.

Master Yu Chi's medical skills are indeed amazing.

As for why he didn't thank Yu Chi directly?

Qiao Jin tried, holding Yu Chi's hand and shaking it only twice, and was frightened by Yu Chi's smiling expression and dared not move anymore.

That smile was also creepy to look at.

It seemed to say that if he dared to shake again, Yu Chi would send him to see King Yan.

A month later, Qiao Jin was almost recovered, able to run and jump, but still coughed occasionally, which was not a big problem.

Yu Chi handed the latest prescription to City Lord Qiao and asked someone to get the medicine.

"Take this prescription for another half a month and you will be fully recovered."

City Lord Qiao was grateful.

According to his and Yu Chi's status, he had to address Yu Chi as "Sir".

When he first saw Yu Chi, the jade whistle that Yu Chi took out belonged to the Seventh Prince and could drive the white pigeons raised by the Seventh Prince.

That was something that only the most trusted person around the Seventh Prince could have. Just by looking at that jade whistle, City Lord Qiao determined that Yu Chi's status must be extraordinary.

Now that Qiao Jin has received such a great favor from Yu Chi, he doesn't know how to thank him.

Yu Chi doesn't need City Lord Qiao to be grateful to him. He came to Luoyang City this time for the Amber Seven-petal Orchid.

City Lord Qiao had promised to give it to him a long time ago. Even if he cured Qiao Jin this time, he was taking advantage.

After all, the value of the Amber Seven-petal Orchid is there.

...

Now it is April, and Qiao Jin is standing in front of the flowerbed that his father has just opened. The only flower in the flowerbed is Jiang Li's true body, peony.

Now it has bloomed, and it is blooming very well.

Qiao Jin looked at the beautiful flowers, smiled, picked up the wooden bucket on the side, and used a ladle to water the flowers.

As he was watering, he heard light footsteps walking behind him and stopped.

As soon as he turned around, he saw Jiang Li.

Jiang Li, wearing a white dress and a pear blossom jade hairpin in her hair, looked just like the day they met again seven years ago.

She smiled faintly, and Qiao Jin stared at her, not reacting until the water in the water scoop was emptied.

"City Lord Qiao asked me to call you for dinner."

"Oh, okay."

Qiao Jin pinched the handle of the water scoop and threw it into the wooden barrel, then carried the wooden barrel aside and put it away. When he turned around, he saw Jiang Li staring at the peony.

He asked Jiang Li.

"Will it grow bigger this year?" Jiang

Li looked back at him.

"Yes."

If the demon pill came back, she would no longer continue to become weak, and of course it would no longer have any effect on her true body. It was not

until they went to the restaurant that they realized that the people were more complete than ever before.

Even Qiao Yu, who was out, came back.

"Is the dinner today so grand?"

Qiao Jin sat down and saw that even the dishes on the table were extremely rich.

"Of course there is a reason for this. One of them is to give a gift to Lord Yu Chi and Master Gu Jue."

After City Lord Qiao finished speaking, Qiao Jin turned his head and looked at Gu Jue.

"Are you leaving?"

Gu Jue nodded.

They were leaving, as the Amber Seven-petal Orchid had grown well and their goal had been achieved, so they naturally had to leave.

He already knew that Yu Chi was traveling the world to find medicinal herbs that could detoxify, and the sooner he could find them, the less worries he would have.

Qiao Jin was a little emotional. After more than a month of getting along, he and Gu Jue could be considered good friends.

It was really hard to leave suddenly.

He immediately poured himself a glass of wine and raised it in Gu Jue's direction.

"I won't say anything about the situation, Gu Jue, it's all in the wine."

Seeing him so serious, Gu Jue glanced at the tea in his own cup, and finally took Yu Chi's wine glass and bowed to Qiao Jin.

The two brothers were ready to drink.

One was stopped by Yu Chi.

He whispered in Gu Jue's ear.

"Have you forgotten what you look like when you are drunk?"

Gu Jue's body stiffened, and he inexplicably remembered many embarrassing things, such as hugging Yu Chi in a restaurant and kissing him. There was

also a clamor for Yu Chi to hug him.

Take out all the silver you have and let Yu Chi take off his clothes in front of him...

and so on. If you get drunk here...

Gu Jue's eyes swept over the people at the table. The consequences were simply unimaginable.

Thinking of this, he was sweating all over. He put down his wine glass and picked up his tea.

"I'll use tea instead of wine. OK."

Another person was stopped by Jiang Li.

"You have just recovered from a serious illness. Don't drink alcohol. Drink tea."

Her voice was gentle. Qiao Jin looked at her for a while and decisively changed the tea.

"Then I will use tea instead of wine."

Others: "..."

Feng Wuqing felt that he couldn't bear to watch it. He put his hand on his forehead, shook his head helplessly, and sighed.

Qiao Jin seemed to notice him only then.

"You haven't left yet?"

Feng Wuqing: "???"

"What are you talking about? This huge Qiao family can't keep me?"

Qiao Jin didn't say anything, but Qiao Yu answered quickly.

"Yes."

But his voice was cold and his expression didn't change much, which was completely different from the speed of his answering.

Feng Wuqing didn't beat around the bush.

"Uncle Qiao said that you and Miss Jiangli are going to get engaged, and asked me to have the engagement dinner before leaving."

"Puff!"

The tea that Qiao Jin had just drunk sprayed out, and Jiangli's face was rarely stained with a blush, and she leaned to one side.

Qiao Jin looked at his father.

"I haven't asked Jiangli if she is willing or not?"

City Lord Qiao rolled his eyes at him.

"I'm afraid you won't ask until next year, why don't you ask now?"

City Lord Qiao knows his son best. He knows exactly what Qiao Jin is thinking.

Less than a day after he left, he followed her everywhere in the afternoon, and brought her back the next day.

Even dogs on the street wouldn't believe Qiao Jin who has no feelings for Jiang Li.

After hearing what City Lord Qiao said, Qiao Jin turned around and looked at Jiang Li, looking a little embarrassed.

"Jiang Li, I'm already eighteen. What I mean is that it's been two years since I was sixteen..."

His voice got smaller and smaller. Everyone at the table looked at him. His fingers were clenched together tightly, and even his toes were clasped together.

"I want to say that after twelve years, I still want to marry you. Are you still willing to marry me?"

Everyone's eyes turned from Qiao Jin to Jiang Li.

She smiled and answered with a slight curl of her lips.

"Yes, I am willing."

City Lord Qiao was happy.

"This is the second reason for today. It is the engagement banquet of Jiang Li and Qiao Jin. Let's discuss and settle your marriage. Qiao Yu, you have to work hard..."

"You are too easy, aren't you?"

Qiao Jin roared.

Qiao Yu turned a deaf ear to what was happening outside the window and concentrated on eating. She pretended not to see the cool gaze of City Lord Qiao.

Feng Wuqing laughed.

City Lord Qiao turned around and faced Jiang Li with a smiling face.

"It is a pity that Miss Jiangli has to marry. Let's discuss it later and pick an auspicious date. You can tell me any customs and taboos." Jiangli

nodded.

"Thank you, Lord."

Afterwards, Yu Chi asked Lord Qiao why he didn't mention Jiangli's parents.

Lord Qiao just smiled and looked at the horizon.

"I actually have a vague guess, but I hope Qiao Jin is happy."

He tilted his head to look at Yu Chi and smiled kindly.

"Children and grandchildren have their own blessings."
