Chapter 159 Master's Clever Trick: Teasing Jiangcheng's Two Fools
After Yan Heli left, Lin Cheng turned around and his face fell. "Young Master Ting, it's over. The young mistress's master doesn't have a good impression of you at all. And I always feel that Mr. Yan was putting us down in his words. Do you think he recognized us a long time ago? Look, he said he would let us sit, but he moved all the stools away. Where are we supposed to sit? Are we supposed to sit in his little rocking chair? Who would dare? This is obviously making things difficult for us."
Murong Ting was even more frustrated than he was.
Although he had guessed that Yan Yan's master might reject him, he never expected it to come to this.
He frowned and said, "Let's wait and see. Take advantage of the present and do our best to win over her master first."
Lin Cheng nodded: "Go for it, Ting Shao, I believe in you!"
Just then, Yan Heli came out of the warehouse, glanced at the two of them, and deliberately shouted loudly, "Hey, what a rare good weather! We should take out the medicinal herbs and dry them properly!"
Upon hearing this, Lin Cheng's eyes immediately lit up: "Young Master Ting, this is a golden opportunity! Your chance to shine has arrived!"
Murong Ting nodded slightly and stepped forward with great enthusiasm: "Mr. Yan, let me help you."
Yan Heli: "Oh, I can't accept that, you're a guest!"
As he spoke, he led Murong Ting into the warehouse.
Murong Ting's lips twitched: "It's nothing. We're young and strong, and we're Wanwan's friends, so it's only right that we help out."
Lin Cheng, standing to the side: "..."
Tsk, you really know how to address people, you even used "Wanwan".
Yan Heli nodded beside him: "Alright, you come here. See those two burlap sacks over there? Carry them over to the roof of that flat over there and spread them out to dry in the sun, so they can be used in medicine."
After saying that, he went to do something else.
Upon seeing this, Murong Ting immediately gave Lin Cheng a look.
Lin Cheng quickly stepped forward and, together with Murong Ting, lifted the large sack.
The sack contained some kind of medicinal herb, and it was as heavy as if it were filled with iron.
“Ting…brother, I’ll count to three, and we’ll all pull together,” Lin Cheng said.
Murong Ting nodded: "Okay."
"one!"
"two!"
"three……"
Before he could finish counting to three, Murong Ting was suddenly patted on the shoulder.
"Hey, you two are carrying it together?" Yan Heli appeared silently behind the two of them.
Murong Ting was about to exert his strength when he almost strained his back.
Lin Cheng chuckled awkwardly, "Mr. Yan, why do you walk so quietly?"
"When practicing Tai Chi, one should be as light as a swallow," Yan Heli said naturally.
Lin Cheng silently gave him a thumbs up.
Yan Heli turned to Murong Ting and said, "Hey, young man, you're so young, how come you can't even carry a bag of medicinal herbs by yourself? Is your body not up to par? How are you going to get married like this?"
He clapped his hands and said, "Come on, let me show you!"
He squatted down, held the sack, and strained—but the medicinal herbs didn't budge.
The scene froze for a moment, then he loosened the sack, clapped his hands as if nothing had happened, and stood up, saying, "Sigh, I'm just getting old. When I was young, I was much stronger than you guys. I could carry this sack for ten kilometers without any problem."
Lin Cheng immediately chimed in, "That's right, that's right. You're Zhang Sanfeng of Jinzhen, a Tai Chi master, you're really something."
"Well, you flatter me. But a man traveling all over the country needs to be strong, right?" he said, looking at Murong Ting.
Murong Ting gritted his teeth: "You're right."
After saying that, he pushed Lin Cheng aside and said, "Get out of here, I'll do it myself."
Lin Cheng: "...Ting-di, are you serious?"
Murong Ting glanced at him, and without saying a word, he slung the bag of "medicinal herbs" over his shoulder.
Lin Cheng watched in amazement as he bent over and walked step by step toward the bungalow, and couldn't help but applaud him.
If Young Master Ting maintains this fighting spirit, how can he not win back his wife!
From the small courtyard to the bungalow, there were steps to climb. Murong Ting took one step at a time, his steps crooked and unsteady.
After finally getting up there, he threw the sack to the ground with a "bang".
He wasn't sure if it was just his imagination, but he seemed to hear the sound of something breaking inside.
He paused, about to untie the sack, when Yan Heli stopped him: "Hey, hey, no need to untie it, just leave it there, I'll do it later."
Murong Ting withdrew his hand from the mouth of the sack.
"Okay, I'll bring the rest of the bag up for you too."
After finally moving the two bags of "medicinal herbs," even though Murong Ting was in good physical condition, he was exhausted.
He stood there panting, when he saw Yan Heli come out from the backyard carrying a wooden bucket that was completely covered.
Lin Cheng was excited and tugged at his sleeve, saying, "Young Master Ting, Young Master Ting, did you see that? Your efforts haven't been in vain. Mr. Yan is just worried about you and brought you some water!"
Murong Ting was secretly pleased, but outwardly he pretended to be calm and patted him on the shoulder: "Yeah, I saw it. Silent efforts will eventually pay off."
"Young Master Ting is amazing! You should share some of this water with me later. I heard the well water in the deep mountains is especially sweet and doesn't even need filtering!"
"Don't worry, you'll get your share."
As the two were talking, they saw Yan Heli carrying a wooden bucket walk to a spot not far from them.
Lin Cheng shuddered and immediately stepped forward politely, saying, "Oh dear, Mr. Yan, we're so sorry to trouble you to go and fight your way up here yourself. Please bring it to us."
"So sensible." Yan Heli said with a meaningful look.
"Ah, you must be sensible, just give it to me." Lin Cheng said, taking the bucket.
This bucket is much lighter than those two sacks!
"Thank you for your help."
"Hi, Mr. Yan, you're too kind!"
As he spoke, Lin Cheng was about to lift the lid of the bucket.
Yan Heli quickly stopped him: "Hey, hey, go to the yard, not here, it smells too bad!"
Lin Cheng was slightly taken aback. What kind of holy water was this? It was so sweet and fragrant. Why did he have to go to the courtyard to drink it?
Murong Ting shoved Lin Cheng: "What are you standing there for? I told you to go outside, so go outside. Come on."
She then pulled him outside.
Lin Cheng, still somewhat bewildered, carried the wooden bucket: "Young Master Ting, this Mr. Yan really has a lot of rules. We have to go outside to get a drink of water."
Murong Ting said with a profound expression, "What do you know? I'm asking you, who is Mr. Yan?"
Lin Cheng asked in bewilderment, "The young mistress's master."
Murong Ting asked proudly, "And who is Wanwan?"
Lin Cheng said, "Miss Wen, your ex-wife."
Murong Ting angrily tapped Lin Cheng on the forehead: "Why bring up something you shouldn't have? I was talking about her other identity!"
Lin Cheng awkwardly uttered an "Oh," and said, "Chanyi."
Murong Ting raised his handsome face: "Chanyi is a world-renowned divine doctor. Wanwan's master can't be any worse than her, right? What's wrong with these capable people having some special quirks and rules? Why are you complaining!"
Lin Cheng nodded and gave a thumbs up: "Young Master Ting, no wonder you're a CEO. Your awareness and understanding are truly impressive!"
"Stop arguing, open the lid, and drink some water!"
