The next day, Xu Yaoyang brought his wife to see Xu Xinning. Du Zhong followed along humbly. He only knew that Xu Xinning was good at making medicine, but he didn't have much hope for her medical skills. After all, she was so young, how much skill could she have? Besides, a barefoot doctor doesn't need much skill.
Du Zhong's humility stemmed entirely from Xu Xinning's pharmaceutical expertise.
Xu Yaoyang's wife is indeed not doing well; she is showing signs of premature labor.
After taking her pulse, Xu Xinning prescribed a medicine without saying a word.
With just three simple herbs, Du Zhong was quite amazed when he picked up the prescription. He never expected that Xu Xinning's prescription would be so unique.
Du Zhong asked himself if he could do even a third of what Xu Xinning could do.
A prescription is not necessarily better the more medicines it contains. Some doctors write prescriptions with many medicine names, which only means that he (or she) is unsure and uses more medicines to balance their effects. However, if there are too many medicines, the efficacy may be weakened.
This prescription completely convinced Du Zhong of Xu Xinning's abilities. Looking at the medical station that Xu Xinning had built, he felt it was even more professional than some provincial hospitals.
Du Zhong felt that this little girl was wasting her talents by staying here.
He thought highly of this girl; he had quite a few younger relatives in his family, and it would be great if he could bring her home.
Du Zhong believed that his younger relatives were all better than Mu Jingheng, this spoiled brat. A young girl should marry someone with a strong sense of responsibility and commitment. He didn't think much of Mu Jingheng. What kind of responsibility and commitment could a spoiled brat have?
Du Zhong was increasingly excited as he thought about it, and he was planning which junior he should send over.
Mu Jingheng: You old geezer, you'd better see if you can steal my girl before you try. (╬◣д◢)
Du Zhong acted on his words without thinking, and that very day he went to the commune to make a phone call.
Since they discovered their shared secret, Xu Xinning and Mu Jingheng's relationship has grown stronger, and Xu Xinning has shown her dependence on Mu Jingheng for the first time.
Ever since she learned that she had her own tomb, Xu Xinning had really wanted to visit it. She wanted to see if her parents and brothers from her previous life had left any hints.
In Xu Xinning's heart, her mother in her previous life was an omnipotent person. She was insightful and wise, and her perspective on problems was always different from others. In addition, her hometown in this life was near the mausoleum of her previous life, so she always felt that there was a connection.
She didn't dare go when she was alone, afraid that she would be too heartbroken and lose control of herself, which would be unfair to her family from both past and present lives.
Now that she has a lover, someone she can rely on completely, Xu Xinning is determined to go and see them. In addition, she is concerned about the family that has protected her for so many years, and she feels it is time to set them free.
Before going, Xu Xinning told Mu Jingheng about the cemetery, including the family that was guarding her tomb.
Mu Jingheng was quite surprised. In fact, the Resurrection Pill was not found in his previous life, which meant that Xu Xinning's tomb in her previous life had not been found, which should probably be attributed to her tomb keeper.
Xu Xinning and Mu Jingheng left before dawn, having informed Grandma Xu and Grandpa Xu beforehand, using the excuse of going to give their second aunt's husband a follow-up check-up.
Xu Xinning and Mu Jingheng climbed the mountain for a long time before they finally saw wisps of smoke rising from distant chimneys.
The place was called a village, but it didn't quite look like one. There were only a few scattered households, and the houses were all built on the mountaintop, surrounded by cliffs. The mountaintop looked as if it had been flattened by some sharp tool.
Although Xu Xinning is skilled in martial arts, it would still be quite strenuous for her to climb up there without Mu Jingheng's help.
Xu Xinning suddenly felt heartbroken. Her bodyguards had lived a life of near isolation for generations because of her. One or two generations might be possible, but to persist for so many generations was truly a pipe dream.
Visiting this place in person further strengthened Xu Xinning's resolve to set these people free.
Xu Xinning and Mu Jingheng were spotted as soon as they appeared halfway up the mountain, and the whole village was on high alert. Xu Xialian's father-in-law and eldest son stood on the watchtower.
As Xu Xinning and her group approached, Xu Xialian's father-in-law and eldest son hurriedly descended from the watchtower and notified the entire village to prepare for their arrival. Xu Xialian's father-in-law and eldest son personally went to greet them.
They finally met the princess.
When Xu Xialian's eldest son revealed his identity, they thought Xu Xinning would go to the village in a few days. Unexpectedly, they waited for several months. Recently, they were thinking about whether to visit the princess again. Unexpectedly, she finally came.
However, when Xu Xialian's father-in-law saw Xu Xinning with Mu Jingheng, he was still somewhat wary, but when he got closer and saw his appearance, he was a little surprised.
Xu Xialian's eldest son, Xu Xinning, was already acquainted with her. He was dressed the same as last time, except that the hairpin in his hair was no longer the same one.
Xu Xialian's father-in-law's appearance is the same as that child's. I wonder how many people in the village still wear this kind of ancient attire.
Upon seeing Xu Xinning, the old man knelt down with great excitement. Xu Xinning wasn't too surprised that she had memories of her past life, but Mu Jingheng was different. Although he was reborn, he was still a modern soul, so he was quite shocked by this kind of kneeling. Before the old man could fully kneel down, Mu Jingheng had already helped him up. However, the old man did indeed perform the kneeling ceremony. This was the second time he had knelt down to Xu Xinning.
Fortunately, the child was still young. Xu Xinning helped him up and held his hand the whole time. The two of them were cousins, and their relationship was quite close.
Xu Xialian stood at the village entrance, watching Xu Xinning slowly approach. She was so happy that she burst into tears. This was the first time her family had come to visit.
Actually, very few women in the village marry out. It's only in recent years that the number of women in the village has decreased, and people with different surnames have all moved away, which is why it's impossible for them to marry women from outside the village. In any case, their promise must continue, so they must carry on the family line.
When Xu Xinning got closer, she realized that Xu Xialian was heavily pregnant and hungry. However, Xu Xialian looked very healthy and had clearly been well-nourished.
Xu Xialian wanted to go forward and hug Xu Xinning, but when she looked at her father-in-law, she didn't dare. She had only recently learned about the family's mission and also learned from them that Xu Xinning was the reincarnation of that princess.
At this moment, she didn't know how to address Xu Xinning. Emotionally, she was her niece, but theoretically, she was a princess.
This was a very surreal thing for Xu Xialian, but she also knew that her father-in-law and the others couldn't possibly be wrong, otherwise the meaning of their continued protection would be lost.
The eldest and youngest uncles stood beside Xu Xialian, each holding the hand of a five- or six-year-old girl. Interestingly, the child's features bore a resemblance to Xu Xinning's.
