Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

Up to now, his pampered life was like a debt that he had no selection however to repay. Little Uncle Ning was pressured to go from a faux younger grasp who didn’t need to do something to a laborer. He may solely face the yellow soil along with his again to the sky and work exhausting in alternate for meals to outlive. Solely then did he notice that life wasn’t straightforward, however there was no turning again in life. He may solely grit his tooth and work exhausting to outlive.

As he tossed and turned, he had additionally puzzled if he wouldn’t need to stay like this now if he had handled Eldest Brother and the others higher prior to now. Nevertheless, he was quickly so drained that he didn’t have the energy to reminisce and remorse.

There was additionally Little Aunt Ning. When she colluded with the Lei Household, she thought that she may obtain meteoric success. Nevertheless, she went for wool and got here house shorn. The 2 individuals from the Lei Household disappeared with no hint. She had no backing or cash, however she was lazy. After some time, she truly entered a brothel like Second Aunt Ning…

Nevertheless, she was not as tactful as Second Aunt Ning, who had accepted her destiny after experiencing the world. She at all times harbored a dream. She was even choosy and disdainful when she acquired friends and was taught a lesson.

County Justice of the Peace Shen skipped this half, primarily as a result of he didn’t need to soiled Xiaoxiao’s ears, contemplating that she was nonetheless younger.

Unknowingly, they chatted for greater than half a day. Xiaoxiao noticed County Justice of the Peace Shen’s want in his expectant eyes, so she took over the cooking job.

Madam Music and Ning Anhui have been imagined to eat within the rented courtyard collectively. Earlier than they began cooking within the afternoon, they acquired Ning Fengnian’s message that he wished them to go to official fields to eat with County Justice of the Peace Shen. The 2 of them didn’t assume an excessive amount of about it. Anyway, this was not the primary time they’d a meal with County Justice of the Peace Shen.

Furthermore, they’d specifically invited Physician Gongsun, who had simply returned from the border, to test Madam Music’s pulse. It was apparent that he actually handled the Ning Household as one in every of his personal.

Ning Anhui requested politely, “Physician Gongsun, do you need to go along with us?”

He simply wished to be well mannered, however he thought that the quiet and aloof Physician Gongsun would reject him. Unexpectedly, he tidied up the primary support equipment and mentioned cooperatively, “Okay.”

Ning Anhui suspected that he had met a faux Physician Gongsun in the present day. Nevertheless, he didn’t know that Gongsun Zhongjing had been counting the times on the best way out.

Madam Music was about to present beginning, however she was nonetheless strolling as if she was flying. Xiaoxiao couldn’t assist however rush over to assist her. “Mom, decelerate!”

Madam Music was shocked. “Xiaoxiao? Am I dreaming?”

Xiaoxiao positioned her hand on her face. “Contact it. Isn’t it tender? It’s not a dream!”

Wasn’t this acquainted playfulness this little woman that individuals missed?!

“You’re lastly again! It’s been nearly a 12 months because you left! If you happen to didn’t come again, I wouldn’t even bear in mind what you appeared like!” Though her phrases have been exaggerated, Madam Music’s tears fell as she spoke.

The pregnant lady’s feelings fluctuated significantly, and Madam Music couldn’t cease crying. Her coronary heart ached a lot that Ning Fengnian didn’t know the place to place his palms and ft. Xiaoxiao additionally tried her greatest to wheedle and fake to be obedient. She even specifically sat beside Madam Music and served her an entire meal earlier than coaxing her.

After recovering her feelings, Madam Music felt a bit of embarrassed. Nevertheless, she couldn’t assist however be joyful when she realized that Xiaoxiao nonetheless took her to coronary heart after acknowledging her organic dad and mom. Anyway, her feelings have been fluctuating, making Xiaoxiao very stunned.

Realizing that the imperial envoy despatched by the Imperial Courtroom was Rong Yan, Madam Music appeared round in confusion. “Then the place is he?”

Rong Yan was frightened that everybody could be reserved and never be capable of eat properly due to his id, so he specifically didn’t come. Nevertheless, after all, Xiaoxiao couldn’t say that. “He went to do his work first.”

Then, she greeted Gongsun Zhongjing. “Physician Gongsun, it’s been a very long time. After the battle subsided, you got here again with out ready for us. We didn’t even have time to thanks.”

“The troopers and commoners within the border metropolis have been speaking about you!”

He specifically left first as a result of he was not used to such a scene. After all, there was one other vital purpose—

“Outdated Madam Li is significantly sick. I can’t delay any longer.”

Xiaoxiao requested, “How is she now?”

County Justice of the Peace Shen coughed. “The Li Household is mourning.”

Outdated Madam had been cussed all her life and averted remedy. It was not straightforward for her to pull it out till now.

Docs weren’t gods, so it was unimaginable for them to remedy all of the diseases and ache on the planet. Sadly, not everybody understood this logic. Presumably, Outdated Madam Li’s “loyal servants” had taken it out on Gongsun Zhongjing quite a bit.

Simply as she considered this, she noticed that Gongsun Zhongjing’s face was pink, but it surely was apparent that he was not shy from being praised.

Xiaoxiao glanced on the cup beside his hand. “Father, did you pour wine for Physician Gongsun?”

Ning Fengnian mentioned as if nothing had occurred, “Ah, the fruit wine you brewed is nice. I assumed it tasted good, so I poured it for Physician Gongsun.”

He circled and realized that one thing was fallacious. “Ah, is Physician Gongsun drunk? Your Second Brother and I normally use it as a palette cleanser…”

Xiaoxiao was speechless. Who may evaluate to the 2 of you by way of alcohol tolerance?

The medication web page was about to cry. “My younger grasp is just not good at ingesting. He solely drinks through the New Yr. Even when he has one thing to drink about, he can solely drink a small cup. What number of cups is that this?”

Xiaoxiao didn’t know both. Happily, her Father didn’t take out the large bowl at house. In any other case, it might be an issue if Gongsun Zhongjing may nonetheless sit.

“Why don’t you deal with your younger grasp first? I’ll cook dinner some hangover soup first.”

That was the one method. The medication web page didn’t blame the Ning Household. Grasp Ning had clearly advised Younger Grasp that it was wine, however why was Younger Grasp, a self-disciplined individual, so grasping in the present day?

The red-faced Gongsun Zhongjing refused to let go of the fruit wine and fought with the medication web page for it. The medication web page didn’t dare to harm him with all his would possibly and undoubtedly couldn’t let him drink it once more. They have been in a stalemate for a second. Therefore, Ning Anhui, who couldn’t stand it anymore, raised his hand to restrain him and snatched the wine jar away in a single go.

Gongsun Zhongjing was fairly well-behaved. He didn’t pressure it when the jar was taken. He simply lay on the desk and didn’t transfer.

When Xiaoxiao got here again with the hangover soup, he was nonetheless the identical. He refused to go away regardless of who pulled him. She glanced at Gongsun Zhongjing’s seemingly calm expression and mentioned in a low voice, “You probably did your greatest.”

Gongsun Zhongjing buried his head in his arms and mentioned in a muffled voice, “If I had come again earlier, maybe…”

Xiaoxiao shook her head and put down the hangover soup. “The physician can deal with diseases, however he can’t change one’s destiny. It’s human nature to die of previous age. A minimum of with you round, she didn’t undergo an excessive amount of when she left.”

Outdated Madam’s sickness had mutated. If not for Gongsun Zhongjing’s immediate resolution, she would have been in ache and wailing every single day even when she spent all her gold and silver every single day after the sickness acted up. Now that she had handed away, her organs have been in all probability exhausted and she or he was on the finish of her rope. Nevertheless, she had seen the prescription Gongsun Zhongjing gave her. Based on the house, they have been all good medicines that would cut back ache.

It might be seen that though Physician Gongsun mentioned that he would ignore her and let her do no matter she wished, he was truly utilizing his personal technique to let her go away with dignity.

“Physician Gongsun, you’ve performed very properly. Not solely is your conscience clear, however you additionally didn’t let anybody within the Li Household down. Nevertheless, for those who proceed to waste your physique like this, you’ll be letting your self down..”
