Chapter 907 Chapter 910. Extra
On the Nameless Island
"I just returned to the mainland and you've occupied my land again." Ouyang Bing's angry voice echoed throughout the island.
Guo Yurong, who had the same white hair as him, had already floated away when he spoke.
"A large part of this island is planted with herbs by you. If you take over my vegetable plot, will we all be left with nothing?"
"Don't be so irritable," Guo Yurong said with a smile while holding the medicine shovel. "When you go back this time, send the wood away. We will consume less in the future. There is no point in keeping so much land. Why not use it to grow some herbs?"
"If growing vegetables is useless, then what are you going to do with those herbs? Are you planning to eat them?" Ouyang Bing was so angry that he was jumping up and down. He really had a bad idea back then and followed him here for so many years.
Now that they are getting older, even if they don’t consider themselves, they should consider Mu Tou and his family.
There will definitely be no way out for their descendants on this island.
This was also the main reason why he returned to land this time and sent people over there.
He didn't expect that when he came back this time, he found that his vegetable plot had become less again. How could he not be furious?
"Okay, even if these medicines are useless, they have bought us a lot of things.
How was the return trip? Have you dealt with all the things at hand? "The two of them had already made up their minds not to leave the island again, so he naturally wanted to ask clearly.
"Don't you trust me when I do things?" Ouyang Bing said unhappily, "Now we really have nothing to worry about.
But this time when I go back, if I encounter something interesting, do you want to hear it?"
"It doesn't matter whether I listen or not. You will tell me yourself later anyway," Guo Yurong, as a brother of several decades, never falls for it.
"You are such a boring person. I have been with you for so many years. What's wrong with letting me feel a little proud?"
Seeing that the other party did not respond, Ouyang Bing sighed and continued, "This time when I came to Lucheng, I ran into an old acquaintance.
It should be said that he didn’t meet me by chance, but came to me after hearing the news.”
Guo Yurong was a little curious. They had been living in seclusion on this island for decades, and there were very few old acquaintances among them.
"You said you're not curious, but I see you've raised your eyebrows," Ouyang Bing muttered softly, "I'm the only one who can stand your bad temper."
Guo Yurong asked helplessly, "We only have a few acquaintances. Apart from the sailors we met before, we don't have many acquaintances in Lucheng.
Did you go to Tianfu Restaurant to eat for free again? Last time you said that the owner had been replaced a long time ago."
"Your guess this time is somewhat reliable. It's not the previous shopkeeper, but the boss."
Now when talking about Tianfu Restaurant, Ouyang Bing can face it calmly. It was a wise move to transfer the restaurant to Madam Gu at that time. Look at it over the years, this brand has become more and more famous!
Although he is not the boss now, at least he created the business, and it has been prosperous for decades, which makes him feel a little comforted.
"Do you still remember Mr. and Mrs. Gu Wenheng?"
Guo Yurong rolled her eyes at him, "If I remember correctly, he is the Grand Tutor. It's impossible for him to come to this little town again."
Ouyang Bing smiled and said, "I was also stunned when I heard the news, it was just them and their spouse.
Hearing that Lord Gu had retired, he brought Madam Gu to revisit his hometown. When I went there, they had just entered the city and many people went to greet them.
It seems that Mr. Gu has maintained a good reputation as an official over the years."
Guo Yurong, “This reputation is not gained through maintenance, this Mr. Gu is indeed a man of great talent and cares for the people.
Otherwise, I wouldn't have left them a copy of every medicine I made over the years.
Did you go meet them?"
"After all, he is an old friend, so naturally I have to go and see him." Ouyang Bing showed nostalgia. There were fewer and fewer people he knew now, so the fewer times he could see him, the better.
"Have you ever regretted spending all these years on the island?" Thinking of the fact that Lord Gu had many descendants and a promising son, Ouyang Bing finally asked what he had been holding in his heart.
"What's there to regret?" Guo Yurong said with a smile, "I have been interested in pharmaceuticals all my life, and I don't want to save people, so retreating from the world is the inevitable choice.
But I didn't expect you to stay with me on this island for so many years. You might be the one who really regrets it."
Ouyang Bing looked at him for a long time before he said, "What is our relationship? We are brothers who share life and death. Can I really leave you behind to enjoy myself?
I was just sighing a few words just now. I heard that Mr. Gu's eldest son is now the Minister of Revenue, and his youngest son's business has spread all over the country.
They are a couple, they both have successors, but are you going to just bury your skills like this?"
Guo Yurong, "It's just that the fate has not come yet. Moreover, as a pharmaceutical maker like me, I have to be able to endure loneliness and keep a stable mentality.
I have made several handwritten copies, and it depends on who is lucky enough to get them in the future."
Ouyang Bing, "...Those wooden guys before, although a little dull..."
Guo Yurong just shook her head, "It is because of this dullness that I cannot give in.
Let’s not talk about this topic anymore. Have you moved all the things you purchased to the shore?”
Their island was so far away from the land that it took several days to travel back and forth. Every time he went to the land, he would prepare in advance and bring some medicine to exchange for other things.
He had been worried these days because Mu Tou and his companions would never come back, and he was afraid that Ouyang Bin would lose his way alone at sea and get lost again.
Now that he was back, he breathed a sigh of relief, remembering that this was the last time the two of them would restock.
"How can you not trust me with my work? Everything is piled up on the shore. Don't worry about your medicines. Follow me to move the things to the yard.
There are quite a lot of things this time, Madam Gu even had someone prepare some specially, I haven’t even opened them yet to take a look.”
"Why do you still want her things?"
"It's not in vain that I asked for this. I left all the medicine I brought over this time for her.
We have known each other for a long time. She helped us so much in the past few years. She even helped us keep this island secret. This time, we have repaid her kindness."
Guo Yurong shook her head. This old guy Ouyang Bin must have given away all the life-saving medicines that she had given him.
I'll prepare another one for him when I get back. I don't know if I can get all the medicine on this island. It's really a headache.
"If I had known this, I would have followed you out of the island. You spendthrift, you didn't leave anything behind, did you?
I thought he was a businessman, but I didn't expect that when he got old, he didn't have any shrewdness at all..."
Ouyang Bing also let him talk. Now there were only the two of them on the island. If they were to keep on being bored, they would get sick. This was good enough...
