Three years passed quickly, and Xinghua Village had grown from an unknown remote village into the most prosperous village in the suburbs of Beijing. Every household had bright tiles and white walls, and spacious houses and courtyards. All these changes in the village were thanks to the Ciyimen Medical Clinic.
Over the past three years, the clinic's reputation has grown, with patients arriving daily from all over the country. Many of these individuals are wealthy, and whether they're seeking to share their wealth or simply to impress the miracle doctor, they frequently donate to Xinghua Village for housing, road repairs, and other construction projects. To properly handle the donations, the village committee hired five accountants, distributing them per capita. Even the elderly residents of the village who are eligible for the "Five Guarantees" program now have two-story Western-style houses, and their monthly rice, flour, and oil supplies are provided by the village. Their welfare benefits are exceptional.
During the past three years, the registration fees and medicine prices of Ciyimen Clinic have remained as low as ever. However, the clinic has been handed over to two apprentices who take turns to see patients. Qingshan will only lend a hand and give some advice when encountering difficult diseases.
At dawn today, the door of the clinic was opened. A little fat boy with big eyes and a round face came in skipping with his schoolbag on his back, and went straight into Qingshan's room without any shyness.
"Shanshan, I'm back! Did you miss me?"
Qingshan had just come out of space and saw this funny guy coming back. He stretched out his hand and pinched his chubby face, saying with a smile:
"You've only been gone for half a month, what's there to think about?"
Tuanzi reached out and slapped Qingshan's claws away, rubbing the flesh on his face and said:
"It hurts so much, please stop pinching my face. It'll get bigger if you pinch it. You'll be responsible if I end up with a pancake face!"
After Jiaolong and Qingyang ascended to heaven, the barrier surrounding the Niangniang Temple vanished. Yin Zheluo led his men into the underground palace and brought Qingshan, Abe Kakuichi, and the others back to headquarters. Abe Kakuichi had lost his memory; he only remembered the events before entering the underground palace. He had no idea what happened in the Jiaolong Temple, let alone the spatial bracelet. Qingshan speculated that this might have been the work of Qingyang Immortal Lord. This was a good thing, so she didn't report Qingyang's situation to headquarters, simply stating that a Jiaolong had ascended during a thunderstorm. Qingshan also blamed Abe Kakuichi for Luo Wenyuan's fainting.
As for Tuanzi's origin, Qingshan only said that he was an orphan and was abducted by Abe Kakuichi to be sacrificed to the dragon. Although Bai Hezheng had many questions, seeing that Qingshan was unwilling to say more, he followed Qingshan's wishes and provided Tuanzi with an identity. He was adopted by the Chen family and renamed Chen Ruyi.
Chen Jianguo and Zhang Meiling never thought that they, who were nearly fifty years old, could have a well-behaved and clever eldest son. They were so happy that they couldn't stop smiling.
Qingshan had long wanted his parents and grandmother to move to the capital, closer to her and more easily caring for her, but they refused to listen, insisting that it was hard to leave their hometown and that Lianshi, no matter how small, was still their home. They refused to move to the capital. Now that Chen Ruyi had been adopted, Qingshan simply said, "The education conditions in the capital are better than in Lianshi." Chen Jianguo resigned, and he and Zhang Meiling packed up their belongings and moved in with Old Lady Sun to Qingshan's clinic.
Chen Ruyi, under the care of his parents, sister and grandmother, lived up to everyone's expectations and grew into a chubby little boy. According to the date of birth in his household registration book, Chen Ruyi is eight years old this year. He just returned from a summer vacation when he went on a trip to Jiangnan with his parents and grandmother.
"Where are our parents? Is grandma tired?"
Tuanzi asked Qingshan for a drink of Lingtan water and said, "Dad went to park the car. Mom and grandma are in the back. They are all fine. After all, I know magic. Don't worry, I'm here!"
Tuanzi has also practiced to the late stage of Qi Refining over the years. Don’t be fooled by his childish appearance. If they really fight, more than a dozen burly men are no match for him.
