After traveling through time, she took her husband to be a food doctor

Chapter 164: A dispute occurred at Xuanqing Mountain, Lan Zhiyao asked for help

It had been more than half a month since she arrived in Lan County, and Ding Xirui had gradually become familiar with everyone in the clinic. This afternoon, she had nothing to do in the front hall, so she went to the backyard with the cook Aunt Yang, chatting while helping to dry the herbs.

"Madam, how long have you been married to Dr. Lin?" Aunt Yang asked.

Ding Xirui stopped, counted in his mind, and said:

"One year and six months."

"Oh, my lady, you are so calculating." The cook laughed.

"Ah?" Ding Xirui blushed.

"Madam, tomorrow I will accompany my daughter-in-law to the Guanyin Temple to burn incense. Please come with us."

"Guanyin Temple?"

"Yes, you have been married to Doctor Lin for so long, isn't it time to ask for a boy or girl?" Aunt Yang stretched out her hand and poked her.

"Auntie, please stop making fun of me." Ding Xirui lowered his head and blushed to his ears.

"Hahahaha." Aunt Yang laughed out loud.

"Madam, please come with us. Not far from the Guanyin Temple is the Xuanqing Temple. You can go to Xuanqing Mountain for a walk. You have been in Lan County for so long and have been busy in the clinic all day. You haven't been out yet, have you?"

"Madam, let's go." Banxia pulled her aside, "I heard there is a spring on Xuanqing Mountain. Let's take some home and make cold noodles."

"You're a foodie." Ding Xirui raised his hand, tapped Banxia's forehead, and agreed.

On the second day, several people took small buckets and went to the Guanyin Temple first.

"Young Madam, what are we asking for?" Banxia asked in a low voice.

Ding Xirui glared at her.

“Please be safe.”

Banxia pursed her lips and smiled.

After leaving the Guanyin Temple, several people walked towards the Xuanqing Temple. Following the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law of the Yang family, Ding Xirui knelt on the cushion and prayed sincerely.

"May the Buddha bless us, and may our family be safe and everything go well."

After leaving Xuanqing Temple, the group walked along the mountain road to find the sweet mountain spring. The higher they went, the quieter it became. Suddenly, among the birdsong, they could hear a faint quarrel.

Several people stopped.

"It was my fault in the past. I lost my mind. If I continue like this, it will hurt you." It was a man's voice.

"Wrong? Are the things we said and the letters we wrote all false?" It was the woman's voice.

"No! But you know my family's situation. If I ask for marriage, your father won't agree."

"You didn't come to my house, how do you know my father won't agree?"

"Someone like me is not worthy of your family. Besides, I don't want you to suffer with me."

"Why are you unworthy? How do you know that I can't endure hardship?"

……

The two were still arguing. Ding Xirui and the others looked at each other, quietly walked down the stairs, and found another way.

"Whose young lady and young man have secretly decided to get married?" Aunt Yang said.

"Mother, from what he said, the young master's family is not very well-off. He wants to break up with the young lady and let her find someone better." said the Yang family's wife.

"In my opinion, the young man is a little cowardly and doesn't even dare to fight for it; but the young lady is very brave." Ding Xirui said.

"Madam, I dare not say that. It is not a trivial matter for two people to get married secretly." Aunt Yang said.

"Yes. It is the women who will suffer then."

Ding Xirui stopped and looked in the direction he had just been. Isn't that right? No matter who the two parties are, if this matter gets out, the one who will be criticized is the girl. Her heart will be betrayed, and she will also be rejected by her family.

Carrying a small bucket of spring water, Ding Xirui went down the mountain with a heavy heart.

The next day, she went to see Lan Zhiyao for her final follow-up visit.

Lan Zhiyao's eyes were red, her face was yellowish, and she looked uneasy. Her physical condition was worse than a few days ago.

"Ms. Lan, didn't you get a good rest yesterday?" Ding Xirui asked.

Lan Zhiyao was stunned and didn't answer. Xiao Cui pushed her.

"Miss Lan?"

"Ah?" Lan Zhiyao came back to her senses.

"I'm sorry, Dr. Ding, what did you just say?"

"Have you been troubled by anything recently? I see that you don't look well." Ding Xirui said.

"No." Lan Zhiyao's eyes flashed.

"Miss Lan, you need to keep your mood happy so that your body can be in good condition."

"Yes, thank you, Doctor Ding." Lan Zhiyao nodded. Looking at Ding Xirui, her eyes suddenly lit up:

"Doctor Ding, seeing you and Doctor Lin...I think your family must be harmonious. Can I ask you a question?"

Ding Xirui was stunned for a moment.

"Miss Lan, do you need any help?" she asked.

"It's not me, it's a good friend of mine." Lan Zhiyao's eyes flashed again.

"You say." Ding Xirui knew in his heart that Lan Zhiyao was probably "making friends out of nothing".

Lan Zhiyao glanced at Xiao Cui, and Xiao Cui understood. She closed the door and stood guard in the corridor.

"Doctor Ding, I have a good friend who is in love with a man. However, her family is a scholarly family, while his family is a little poor, and he did not choose the path of imperial examinations. She had imagined that they would live a happy and fulfilling life in the future, but the man backed out and wanted to separate from her. My friend was very distressed."

Ding Xirui frowned.

Could the man and woman who were arguing in the woods yesterday be Lan Zhiyao?

This girl is really bold!

"Are they really in love with each other?" Ding Xirui asked.

"Yeah." Lan Zhiyao nodded.

"But he doesn't even dare to come to propose marriage. That man must be a bit of a coward."

"No, he was afraid that my friend would suffer."

"What kind of suffering do you endure? Not having enough food to eat, not having enough clothes to wear? Working hard all day long?"

"Not really. He said he wanted her to keep her original life. If they got married, she might have to do some things by herself, such as cooking and washing clothes."

"Can your friends accept that kind of life?"

"Of course." Lan Zhiyao replied quickly.

"Your friend is so brave, but that man doesn't even dare to come and propose marriage. Is his love sincere?" Ding Xirui asked cautiously.

"Of course..." Lan Zhiyao blurted out. The next moment, she lowered her head, "Right... I advised her so, but she didn't seem to believe it. She said that the man really wanted her to live a better life."

Ding Xirui thought for a moment and said:

"Miss Lan, there are two questions here. First, can your friend really accept the days of working hard for a living? When she is tired, will she complain or even regret it? There are more trivial things in life than you think. Second, is the man really doing this for her good, or is he avoiding the problem? If he really loves her, he should understand her, face the problem, fight for it, and seek the consent of her family. If he backs down, even if they get married in the end, he may back down on other things in the future. If there is friction between the two of them, will he complain and regret it?"

Lan Zhiyao fell into deep thought.
