Li Mai raised her hand and looked at her palm. If only her supernatural abilities and spiritual power could come along with her.
“By the way, before the guests arrive, lie down for a bit, and I’ll give you some more acupuncture.” Li Mai said, looking at him.
“Okay!” Zhou Quan replied.
While Li Mai was giving Zhou Quan acupuncture, Zhou Lin brought back his advisor, who was followed by Zhou Lin's master.
Only then did the Zhao family realize that Zhou Lin's master hadn't gone to work either, wanting to wait for his master to arrive and also wanting to see how Li Mai would have him do this.
Old Man Zhou then dismissed the people who had exchanged the fish and welcomed them back into the main house.

Zhou Lai Niu chuckled, "Master, the tea at my house is made from herbs that my wife sun-dried herself, so it's definitely different!"
He assumed the Zhou family had bought the tea in town to prepare for their wedding.
Zhou Lai Niu's father was the village's senior doctor. His wives all learned from him how to identify many herbs, and they knew which ones could be used to treat which diseases and which ones could be brewed as tea for health benefits.
