The next day, the sky was clear and cloudless.
Ning Yu was just about to spread out the herbs to dry when a man came over with a wooden crutch. The warm sunlight shone on his body. Although he was limping, it couldn't hide his noble temperament.
"Miss Ning, let me help you. I happen to be free."
Without waiting for Ning Yu's consent, Ji Yun imitated Ning Yu's movements to stretch out the herbs and spread them out slowly.
Ning Yu glanced at his left leg: "Is your leg okay?"
Ji Yun's movements suddenly stopped: "...I can still hold on for now."
Ji Yun was extremely upset when he thought that Ning Yu would find a son-in-law in the next few days, but he pretended to be calm on the surface and asked casually, "Have you chosen someone?"
"Not yet." Ning Yu was a little annoyed.
Ning Yu actually thought about letting Ji Yun become his son-in-law, but his status was the crown prince, and he was extremely noble.
For her, it's a trouble.
And he will return to the capital sooner or later.
So it’s more convenient to find someone else.
"Look at me..." Before Ji Yun could finish his words, there was a rapid knock on the door.
A kind and elderly voice said, "Doctor Xiaoning, it's me, Grandma Mo from next door."
"Go in quickly and don't let anyone see you." Ning Yu urged Ji Yun beside him.
Ji Yun felt a little depressed and felt bitter in his heart.
Are you so afraid that others will see him?
But he could only limp into the room.
"Grandma Mo, are you coming to see me because you're not feeling well?" Grandma Mo used to come to see the original body's father often for medical treatment, and she was also the first person in the village to come to her for medical treatment.
Grandma Mo smiled and said, "Dr. Xiaoning, thanks to you, my leg doesn't hurt anymore since you gave me a few injections. I came to you this time because I heard you wanted to find a live-in son-in-law."
"right."
Grandma Mo: "I have an older grandson named Mo Yuan. A few years ago, both his parents passed away due to illness, leaving me, their poor grandson, behind. I've watched him grow up since he was little. He has no problems with his character and is quite strong, though he's a bit quiet. If you're willing, I'll call him in. How about we meet him?"
Ning Yu didn't think too much about it and nodded in agreement.
Ji Yun had excellent hearing. When he heard Ning Yu agreed to meet the so-called man, his heart seemed to be on fire, igniting the flames in his eyes, and a sour feeling swept through his chest.
But I can only endure it with all my strength, because a little impatience will ruin a big plan.
"Yuan'er, come in quickly." When Grandma Mo heard Ning Yu agreed, she hurried to the door to greet him.
At this time, a man in shorts walked in. He was tall and strong, with bronze skin. He exuded a strong explosive power and beads of sweat were faintly seen running down his neck.
The system was beeping frantically: "I didn't expect to meet such a high-quality man here. Although not as good as Ji Yun, he is still pretty good."
Grandma Mo was afraid of disturbing them: "You guys chat first, I have something to do in the fields."
The man looked up at Ning Yu's clean, fair face, with a faint blush appearing on his earlobe.
"Doctor Xiao Ning, I'm Mo Yuan."
If the woman in front of me could really become her wife, that would be a wonderful thing in life.
Ning Yu chuckled and said, "You can just call me Ning Yu. You should know my family's situation. There's no way I'd marry into your family."
"I know. I don't mind being your son-in-law, as long as you don't despise me."
Mo Yuan smiled shyly.
Ning Yu felt a little embarrassed looking at the tall man, but couldn't help but smile: "Okay, let's try getting along first."
Mo Yuan's dark face looked at Ning Yu in disbelief, his mouth wide open, revealing his snow-white teeth: "Really? I will treat you well, I swear!"
Ji Yun clenched his fists tightly, his chest filled with rage, but more of it was bitterness and helplessness.
He had no right to stop Ning Yu.
Shi Ying hugged his arms with a wooden face, but his mind was already racing.
Your Highness must be pissed off now.
"How do I compare to him?"
Shi Ying was stunned for a moment: "...How can he compare with His Highness? Your Highness is a descendant of a royal family, of noble status..."
After hearing the flattering words, the gloom on Ji Yun's face dissipated a little.
She packed some herbs and handed them to Mo Yuan: "This is for Grandma Mo. One pack a day, and you will feel better."
Mo Yuan looked at the kindness in Ning Yu's eyes, thought about it, and did not refuse.
"Thank you on behalf of grandma."
I also started to think about what to bring for Ning Yu.
Mo Yuan left the Ning family carrying a large bag of medicine and was seen by many people. Some people secretly wondered, could it be that Mo Yuan has fallen for Doctor Ning?
Before long, the news of the possible marriage between the Mo family and Doctor Xiaoning spread throughout Xinghua Village.
Li family.
Ning Da slammed the door open and yelled, "Mom, this is bad! Mo Yuan from the Mo family is going to marry that bitch soon!"
When Mrs. Li heard this, she didn't even have time to put down the bowl in her hand: "What did you say? There really is someone who wants to marry into the family?! How can we repay the debt our family owes?"
"Mom, why don't we just knock her out and sell her to a brothel? By the time she wakes up, it will be too late." A cruel look flashed in Ning Da's eyes.
With the money from Ning Yu selling herself, most of the gambling debts can be paid off.
"Okay, I'll contact the madam right away."
Li did not stop at all. While it was still light, she found the madam and asked for two packets of medicine powder.
One packet of sleeping pills, and one packet specifically for disobedient prostitutes.
When we returned to Xinghua Village, it was already dark.
Thinking about that little bitch being drugged...
Li couldn't help but let a vicious smile appear on the corner of his mouth.
As time passed, the night gradually darkened and the people in Xinghua Village had already fallen asleep.
With a "squeak——" sound.
Ning Yu suddenly opened his eyes, a sharp light flashing in his eyes. "System, look who it is?"
"The host is Li and Ning Da."
"It's so late, what are these two people trying to do?!"
Ning Yu knew that once the news of her and Mo Yuan's possible marriage spread, the Li family would definitely take action, but she didn't expect it to happen so soon.
Soon, the door was slowly pushed open.
Li moved cautiously. Seeing Ning Yu lying on the bed, she took out two packets of medicine powder and poured them into a hand towel, preparing to cover it up.
Ning Yu suddenly opened her eyes, her eyes were clear and cold, which scared Li.
But Li was a woman who had worked in the fields. She was nimble and quick. Relying on her strength, she grabbed Ning Yu's wrist and covered her mouth and nose with a handkerchief in her other hand.
Ning Yu raised his foot and kicked Li away. Li was not paying attention and fell to the ground with a bang.
"Well you little bitch!"
Li forced herself to endure the pain in her waist and rushed towards Ning Yu.
Ning Yu's eyes flashed with cunning, and a trace of fear appeared on her beautiful face. "Help, help..."
