Shi Lingheng glanced at the wild vegetable porridge and some cornbread that had been brought back, and waved for everyone to take turns eating.
You need to be full before you have the energy to cook.
However, the shrewd and calculating Village Chief Fang must have been heartbroken to spend so much money on meals for more than a dozen people every day; he certainly went to great lengths.
A clever young man was eating his meal inside the house. Although the cornbread was spicy, these people were thick-skinned and used to it.
They ate it with the wild vegetable porridge and it tasted delicious.
After taking a bite, he said, "Sir, you guessed right, this Dr. Fang is indeed an interesting character..."
The villagers naturally wouldn't talk to them about these things, and even subtly resisted getting close to them. As soon as they approached, they would move far away and slam their gates shut.
But this kid's ears were unusually sensitive. Since Dr. Fang would appear here every day, the villagers assumed that no one outside could hear them talking at home, so they inevitably became a little unrestrained.
This gave those who had been keeping a close eye on things a clue.
"I heard that this Dr. Fang was not originally from Fangjia Village. It seems that he got lost from his family when he was a child and then stayed here. Later, he was adopted by a couple in Fangjia Village who could not have children. He ran away a few times when he was a child, but as you know, in Fangjia Village, if someone who is not familiar with the area goes out, he will be food for wild animals. So he has stayed here ever since."
After listening, Shi Lingheng thought about it carefully, nodded, and told him to continue to pay attention to the situation.
After everyone on their side finished eating, the small meeting with Village Chief Fang also ended. Doctor Fang, still expressionless, appeared at the thatched hut where Shi Lingheng was currently staying to examine his condition.
"Who did Dr. Fang learn his medical skills from? There don't seem to be many doctors in the village. If he went outside to learn, it wouldn't be easy, would it?"
Shi Lingheng asked with a smile.
Dr. Fang replied calmly, "It's best not to have too much curiosity in life."
Shi Lingheng shrugged indifferently. Since Dr. Fang knew his condition, there was no need for him to pretend to be weak and frail. He found a comfortable spot to lean back and said, "The people in the village don't talk to us. Life is so boring. There are so many interesting stories outside. If you want to hear them, I can tell you..."
Dr. Fang: "..."
This man talks a lot.
Shi Lingheng didn't get a response from Dr. Fang, but he wasn't in a hurry: "We people travel all over the country and have heard the most stories. Oh, do you know, there's a small county town in the north, and there's a man about your age who was said to have been lost when he was a child, and then... then what happened? I can't remember for a moment."
Shi Lingheng wasn't alone in the room. Immediately, a voice rang out, "Boss, I know. It seems that person has found his biological parents, but his parents died long ago. His current adoptive father and mother are actually murderers."
The medicinal herbs that Dr. Fang was holding instantly fell to the ground...
He didn't squat down to pick it up, but instead looked coldly at Shi Lingheng: "Who exactly are you, and what do you want?"
Shi Lingheng spent every day studying Fan Xiaofan's appearance, and unconsciously learned Fan Xiaofan's innocent smile: "I didn't do anything, I just suddenly thought of a story and wanted to share it with you. After all, this village is quite isolated from the world, so it must be pretty boring on weekdays."
