Although Ruan Qingyang didn’t like Li Lianhua’s family very much, they were all part of Ruan’s Village. Everyone had a little relationship, so they couldn’t stand idly by when this kind of thing happened.
He felt that even if they broke off their relationship, Bai Chen and Li Lianhua were still blood relatives. Bai Chen had the ability to help them in such a big event, not to mention that Zhao Yan seemed to be rich. It was difficult for them, but anyone who has seen the mighty dowry team on the day of Bai Chen’s marriage knows that these silver taels are only a drop in the bucket for Zhao Yan.
Originally, he wanted to persuade Zhao Yan to borrow money for Li Lianhua and the others to solve the crisis. With the testimony of their family and clan, Li Lianhua family will dare not pay it back.
But now hearing Li Lianhua involve the entire Ruan’s Village, Ruan Qingyang is not happy.
His brows were tightly wrinkled, and his eyes were also looking at Zhao Yan and Bai Chen nervously, for fear that Zhao Yan would get angry and implicate their entire village.
Ruan’s Village used to have a hard time. Their harvest was not very good. When winter came, everyone had to stay at home without enough clothes and food for the winter. Later, because Zhao Yan came up with the idea of making salted eggs, the income in the village was better. Now there’s also the business with medicinal herbs. Zhao Yan found someone to specially teach the people in the village to grow medicinal herbs, and he also found a long-term cooperative medicinal herbs businessman. He has made a long-term livelihood for Ruan’s Village, and the profit from this livelihood is more than farming. Selling salted eggs is also much better, therefore, this winter, almost every household in the village has added new clothes, not to mention the big fish and meat. At the very least, it’s different from before when they only get to eat meat once or twice a year.
Ruan Qingyang worshipped and thanked Zhao Yan. If he could, he didn’t want to help Li Lianhua to make Zhao Yan upset, but they are from one village. He felt that Bai Chen should do it, so he came to say this. But as soon as she opened her mouth, she offended the other party to death, and dragged them all in the village with her.
Ruan Qingyang was a little annoyed with Li Lianhua.
If they really annoyed Zhao Yan, they wouldn’t be able to do the medicinal herb business in their village that relied on Zhao Yan.
Zhao Yan’s face was cold. The indifference in his eyes was like he was looking at a dead person, which made Ruan Qingyang a little uneasy.
He opened his mouth and wanted to apologize to Zhao Yan, and then took Li Lianhua away. Since Li Lianhua disregarded the interests of the village, then he also didn’t need to help, lest they would be entangled and in trouble in the future.
It was just that Ruan Qingyang had just opened his mouth, before the words came out of his throat, a familiar, somewhat old and angry voice came from behind Zhao Yan.
“I don’t know when this Ruan’s Village was represented by a woman like you. Mian ge’er is I, Zhou, precious child, so what does he have to do with you black-hearted shrew? Not to mention the dowry, we won’t even give out even if it were just a penny.” Said doctor Zhou, giving Ruan Qingyang an unfriendly glance, and said lightly, “If you want to drive our family out of the village, then come here.”
It snowed all day and a layer of snow had accumulated on the ground. Doctor Zhou is older, so he walks slower, plus it is cold and slippery outside, Bi Qing has to prepare for a long time, that’s why they only appear now. Though doctor Zhou should have heard it all.
Doctor Zhou is someone who would give medicine to the poor and was kind-hearted, but his temper was not good, and he was very good at protecting his kids. He was immediately angry when he heard Li Lianhua’s words.
Bai Chen is now his child, though it was too late for him to spoil him now. Who does Li Lianhua think she is. How dare she calculate his child’s dowry. What about blood relationships? In the family tree, Bai Chen is his child. Li Lianhua’s family is all about black hearts and silver.
With that, doctor Zhou was also angry at Ruan Qingyang who followed Li Lianhua.
On this cold day, Ruan Qingyang was sweating all over. He was angry and guilty. He was angry that Li Lianhua made him offend someone who should not be offended. He was guilty because he wanted to speak up for Li Lianhua just now. The only doctor in the village has always charged the lowest medical fee for the villagers, and sometimes even gives it for free. Now, he occasionally guides the villagers to plant herbal medicine. What will they do in the future? Not to mention that Zhao Yan was one of the offended.
Li Lianhua’s temper has always been very rude and unreasonable. Before, she did not dare to offend doctor Zhou and Zhao Yan, mainly because she was afraid of the village chief and the clan elders. After all, the two of them had a special status in the village, and Zhao Yan was cold. He’s not easy to provoke at first glance, so Li Lianhua has never dared to come to the door to ask for the dowry she coveted. But now something has happened at home, and doctors Zhou and Zhao Yan have indicated that they will not pay a penny. With the few thugs having knives at home, how can she be afraid of being scruples? For the very least, Zhao Yan and doctor Zhou will not let their family see blood, so she makes up her mind to ask Bai Chen’s dowry back.
This should belong to their home.
“Mian ge’er popped out of my stomach, I…wu wu”
Ruan Qingyang quickly covered Li Lianhua’s mouth to prevent her from saying anything more offensive to the person in front of her.
He regretted that he didn’t stop Li Lianhua from coming to Bai Chen before, and he didn’t know if he could put out the fire in their hearts by saying good things now.
Ruan Qingyang could see that doctor Zhou was really angry, while Zhao Yan and Bai Chen both had cold expressions.
He smiled at Bai Chen, and said to the three of them: “Aunt is not feeling well, and the weather is cold and easy to catch a fever, so I will take her back.”
After that, he dared not look at the three of them, and dragged the struggling Li Lianhua hard, walking Ruan’s house direction, leaving a heavy and messy trail on the snow.
“Humph.” Seeing them leaving, doctor Zhuo snorted heavily and asked Bi Qing to close the courtyard door, then waved to Zhao Yan and Bai Chen: “It’s cold outside, go back quickly or our table will be cold.”
Afraid that Bai Chen would be sad, doctor Zhou also stepped forward and touched Bai Chen’s head, comforting him: “Child, don’t care about her. Dad loves you.”
Bai Chen obediently let doctor Zhou touch his head. Afraid that doctor Zhou won’t reach his head hard, he hugged Zhao Yan, and bent his body slightly to make doctor Zhou action more convenient. He showed a bright smile, and his eyes were exceptionally bright and clear in the dark night, like clear spring. It’s like the brightest star in the sky, which makes people look at it, and they can’t help but show a big smile.
“Thank you dad, I will love you too,” he said.
“Haha.” Hearing this, doctor Zhou immediately threw away all his anger towards Li Lianhua, and laughed happily.
Bai Chen turned to Zhao Yan again and said, “I love you too.”
His voice was very serious.
The corners of Zhao Yan’s mouth curved slightly. His black eyes were filled with Bai Chen.
The unpleasant atmosphere just now dissipated. All of a sudden it became joyful again.
As for Ruan Agui family in the same village, it is not very good.
Ruan Qingyang dragged Li Lianhua back with great effort, and then told his village chief dad what had happened just now. Then Ruan Qingyang and the others left.
Without the village chief and others watching, the group of thugs became more and more unscrupulous. When they saw that Li Lianhua’s family did not have money, they pressed the two Ruan brothers on the table and wanted to cut off their gambling hands.
When the knife was about to fall, the Ruan brothers had a flash of inspiration seeing Ruan Ayao, who was afraid, and immediately shouted: “We have money, we have money.”
The next day, Ruan Ayao struggled to be sent by Li Lianhua and her two brothers. When they arrived in town, they gave her to the old man who had taken a fancy to Ruan Ayao and got fifty taels of silver.
All the money was confiscated by the gambling thugs who followed them. Because they got some money, these thugs had no intention of cutting off the Ruan brothers’ hands, but gave them an accomodation to let them live in half a month. All the remaining money needs to be paid back by then.
There are still more than 100 silver taels left. Where can the Ruan family get it out in just half a month now? Li Lianhua is afraid that her two sons hands will really be cut off, and the two brothers were also afraid, in order to pay back the money, she thought about her two daughters-in-law.
The next day, Li Lianhua went to the town for a walk. Two days later, she took her two daughters-in-law to the town. When she came back, she was alone.
In order to get more money, Li Lianhua sold her two daughters-in-law to the red building. Because the two were old and had children, they only sold for 30 taels.
For the rest of the money, Li Lianhua gritted her teeth and sold all the land in her family, and the salted eggs recipe, Zhao Yan taught the villagers, so she finally got all the money needed.
The matter of selling her daughters-in-law and the secret recipe for salted eggs soon came to light. The Yue family from the two Ruan brothers wife came to the door and asked them to return their daughter. The village chief and the clan elders also came because of these things the Ruan family did. The Ruan family was escorted to the ancestral hall for questioning.
The final result was that the remaining few taels the Ruan family has were searched out and paid to the two Yue families. As for the people, the two families who got the money did not want to redeem their daughters who had fallen into trouble. That was a shame for their family. So the two families took the money and left happily. After returning, they found a reason saying that their daughter had contracted a serious illness and passed away.
Villagers always despise women in the dust, even if they didn’t do it willingly.
The Ruan family, who was taken to the ancestral hall, knelt firmly for three days in the ancestral hall, they also got whipped, and were finally driven out of Ruan’s Village.
This selfish family, that didn’t care about the village, was ruthlessly thrown out of the village under the scolding of the whole village and the throwing stones. Even their quilts and clothes at home were not allowed to take.
Li Lianhua didn’t expect that the consequences would be so serious, she couldn’t reverse the result by crying and making trouble, and the people she provoked were even more disgusted.
The Ruan family, who had no home, ate outside and slept in the open air. During this period, Li Lianhua had been beaten and scolded by Ruan Agui. The family was so miserable. When Li Lianhua went out to find food for the two crying grandsons, the two sons talked to Ruan Agui for a while. Ruan Agui sat on the stone, embarrassed. He was silent for a long time and finally nodded.
When Li Lianhua came back, she was tied up by three strong men in her family, just like she used to treat her two daughters-in-law, she was sold to the red building in the town for a few taels of silver.
Bai Chen didn’t know about these things. After the New Year, Bai Chen followed doctor Zhou to learn medical skills again. At the same time, he also copied many medical books from the system and gave them to doctor Zhou. The smile on doctor Zhou’s face has never fallen.
Life in the village is very leisurely, with green mountains and green waters, which makes people feel very relaxed. Bai Chen likes the life here very much. In addition to studying medicine, he often goes into the mountains with Zhao Yan to hunt some wild animals and birds for food to have a large sumptuous meal, or hunts a few bunnies to play with, or pick some wild flowers, or just go out to stroll on the mountain. Every minute and every second with Zhao Yan makes Bai Chen extremely happy and sweet.
When he sees beautiful flowers or stones in the mountains, Bai Chen will take it to their house, then he will decorate the yard of their house with beautiful flowers.
Time passed by, Bai Chen’s medical skills became better and better. Soon doctor Zhou could no longer teach Bai Chen anything, so he suggested that Bai Chen go out to travel and see more patients to improve himself.
This just coincided with Bai Chen’s thought. He also wanted to travel in this world with Zhao Yan, so the two packed up their things, preparing to start traveling around with Zhao Yan.
Along the way, Bai Chen and Zhao Yan saw many beauties in this world, tasted many delicacies, and saw the customs of different places. During this period, Bai Chen did not forget the tasks given by doctor Zhou. He would stop and give medicine to the local poor people, and then write a letter to share with doctor Zhou what he saw, heard and thought.
Five years later, Bai Chen and Zhao Yan returned to Ruan’s Village and lived their own lives. They also opened a medical clinic in the town and hired a few doctors with good medical skills to sit in the town to treat the poor, and only charge low prices. Every 15th day of the first lunar month, they will also see these doctors and give out medicine. Bai Chen and doctor Zhou will often go to the town to discuss medical skills with these doctors.
This kind of medical clinic is not the only one in the town. In the following days, Bai Chen and Zhao Yan also opened many such medical clinics in many remote areas to benefit people from all over the world.
During that period, there were some incidents in Ruan’s village because Bai Chen had never been pregnant. Bai Chen didn’t mind others talking about it, but he was very mindful that someone would have ideas of coveting Zhao Yan.
Bai Chen ruthlessly kicked out those people who tried to stuff people around Zhao Yan, and he said overbearingly. If anyone coveted Zhao Yan again, the medical clinic in all directions would turn them away and also won’t allow them to seek medical attention.
As soon as these words came out, no one dared to make Bai Chen angry again.
Of course, after the incident, Zhao Yan had to coax Bai Chen for a while. After meeting Bai Chen’s various requirements, Bai Chen stopped pouting and getting angry.
— — — —
In the pure white space, Mo Yuan was dressed in an ink black robe with a golden and intricate pattern. He caught Bai Chen who appeared, and waved his sleeves in front of Bai Chen’s surprised and confused eyes. Bai Chen closed his eyes and fell softly into his arms.
He bent down slightly and picked up Bai Chen. A pair of deep black eyes that seemed to contain the universe fell on Bai Chen’s face. He took a step and took Bai Chen to the cloud bed.
A golden light flashed, a golden phantom appeared on Mo Yuan’s body, directly merging into Bai Chen’s body.
Bai Chen, who was struggling to wake up on the cloud bed, frowned slowly stretched out, revealing a satisfied and sweet smile.
“Master, your soul has not yet fully merged. You shouldn’t take such a risk. If little master knows about this, he will feel sad and blame himself.”
Mo Yuan’s index finger slid across Bai Chen’s eyebrows and eyes, down his tender skin, and landed on Bai Chen’s pale lips: “The memory seal on his soul is about to collapse, we can’t wait for that world traveling again and again.”
“But…” The system was anxious.
Mo Yuan raised his finger to stop the system’s next words, and gave a strong order: “You only need to take care of baby. There is no need to say anything else.”
“System, don’t forget the mission I gave you when I created you. If you can’t do it, then destroy yourself.”
The system was obviously not human, but it felt that it was frightened into a cold sweat.
“As for the mistake you made, you will be punished properly when baby recovers.”
Mo Yuan looked at Bai Chen with gentle eyes, but his words were cold and ruthless.
The system shook, “System takes order!”
It knew that if it hadn’t grown up with the little master, it would have been destroyed when it met this man long ago.
Mo Yuan looked at Bai Chen silently and affectionately for a long time, and then closed his eyes. A faint golden light flowed past him. When he opened his eyes again, a thick golden mass fell on his open palm.
The golden light rolled around his palm, and then dissipated into Mo Yuan’s palm.
“For the next world, go here.”
