Sir Song, do you want to pledge yourself to me?

The summer sun was so scorching hot that the birds in the trees by the road were too tired to sing.

Ma Duo was driving the carriage and reminded the people in the carriage: "Master, Taohua Village is just ahead. We will be there in less than a quarter of an hour."

Just as he was speaking, a red figure passed by him like a gust of wind, so fast that it was dazzling. In just a blink of an eye, the red figure had disappeared without a trace. Mado couldn't help but suspect that he had seen it wrongly and it was an illusion.

However, the red shadow miraculously flashed back.

"Duoduo, you're back?" Ji Nuan had quietly sat next to Ma Duo with a mischievous smile on her face.

"Ah, it turns out it's not an illusion, it's you, Miss! Miss, what kind of body movement is this? How come you are as fast as the wind?" Ma Duo almost dropped his jaw in shock.

Of course Ji Nuan would not tell him that this was a supernatural power, not some kind of light-weight body movement technique.

She leaned lazily against the car door and said half-jokingly, "Do you think it's possible that I'm just gifted and I've become a gust of wind through practice?"

Ma Duo rolled his eyes and said aggrievedly, "Miss, if you don't want to talk about it, forget it, but you can't fool me like a silver bean."

Ji Nuan chuckled and asked, "By the way, have you picked up your junior brother?"

"Yes, my master came with him. They are all in the carriage." Ma Duo replied.

At this time, a corner of the carriage curtain was lifted, and an old man's voice came from behind.

"It's Miss Duoduo's boss. I and my son will be disturbing her for a few days."

Ji Nuan turned around at the sound, looked at the old man sitting by the door, and said with a smile, "Master, you're too polite. My name is Ji Nuan. I've been traveling so long, I wonder how that junior fellow apprentice is doing now?"

The old man opened the curtain completely, revealing a thin young man sitting on the other side. The young man looked at Ji Nuan with a sullen expression and said softly, "Miss Ji, I'm fine."

Ji Nuan took out a medicine bottle from her sleeve and handed it over. "There are five pills in it. Take one first. You will feel much better."

"Thank you, young lady." The old man took the bottle for him. The moment he opened the cork, a strong medicinal aroma filled his nose. It was obvious that this was not made from ordinary herbs. He carefully poured out a pill and fed it to the young man.

"My last name is Zhong, and this is my youngest disciple, also my son, named Heming." The old man said as he straightened the boy's clothes.

After Zhong Heming took the pill, his expression gradually eased, and his slightly dull eyes brightened. "Miss Ji, thank you. I feel much better now."

Master Zhong showed a look of relief on his face.

He had heard that Ji Nuan was just a teenager, and for a moment he'd suspected his apprentice had been deceived. But now, seeing it with his own eyes, he realized that appearances are often misjudged. This seemingly young girl might actually possess extraordinary medical skills.

Ji Nuan said gently to Heming, "Heming, when we get home, you should have a good rest. Once you've recovered enough, I'll start treating you. Don't worry, I'm 90% sure I can cure an acquired asthma like yours."

Ma Duo asked in confusion, "Miss, why did you say before that you would bring someone to show you first?"

In medicine, doctors usually do not easily promise patients a 100% cure. This is to leave room for themselves and also to allow patients to have more reasonable expectations for the treatment results.

Although Ma Duo didn't understand these things, Master Zhong was an experienced man and he naturally understood the principles behind them.

Master Zhong felt that his apprentice's behavior was rude and scolded Ma Duo: "Duoduo!"

"Master Zhong, it's okay." Ji Nuan smiled and tried to smooth things over. She then said to Ma Duo, "Duoduo, how could you not understand my modesty? I can't make you travel all the way here for something I'm not sure of."

Ma Duo touched the back of his neck embarrassedly and chuckled, "Miss, I didn't understand what you meant. I'm sorry."

"It's okay, we're already home." Ji Nuan pointed ahead and said, "Master Zhong and Junior Brother will be staying next to your residence. You're more familiar with the family, so you can take care of them nearby. If you need anything, go to Butler Liu, he will make arrangements for you."

After giving Ma Duo instructions, Ji Nuan turned around and called out to the two people in the carriage, "Master Zhong, Junior Brother, now that you've arrived, feel free to stay. I just happened to see someone I know, so I'll go downstairs and say a few words. I'll come back to see you later."

Having said that, Ji Nuan jumped off the carriage and stood there waiting for Aunt Zhou, who was walking towards the Ji family with a basket of vegetables a few steps behind.

A few days ago, Ji Nuan helped Aunt Zhou's daughter-in-law give birth smoothly. Aunt Zhou tried to force two taels of silver into her hand as a consultation fee, but she pushed it back. Later, Uncle Zhou sent a basket of eggs as a thank you, and Aunt Zhou has been sending vegetables to their home every day for the past two days, all for reasons that were hard to refuse.

Seeing Aunt Zhou coming, Ji Nuan smiled and joked, "Aunt Zhou, you're not going to deliver food to my house again, are you?"

Aunt Zhou also responded with a smile: "It's not worth much, it's all grown by us. The vegetables in the garden grow fast, and we can't eat them all, so please don't be disgusted."

"How could I dislike it? Everyone in the village knows that your vegetable garden is the best."

"That's the truth. Your Uncle Zhou isn't good at farming, but he's a good vegetable grower, hahaha!" Aunt Zhou laughed so hard she couldn't stop. "By the way, girl, do you still remember the village chief's niece, the one who followed the Wen family?"

Ji Nuan: "Are you talking about Fang Miaomiao? What happened to her?"

Aunt Zhou looked around and saw that no one was paying attention. Then she lowered her voice and said, "We found the person. We found him in Xingfang Tower."

After the village chief's wife made a scene at the Ji family's door that day, the village chief took his wife and her brother and sister-in-law to the Wen family in the provincial capital to ask for her. However, he didn't see her, and only received ten taels of silver and a piece of contract thrown out by the servants of the Wen family.

The Fang family had originally hoped that if they could make a scene with their daughter marrying into the Wen family, the Wen family would at least offer a betrothal gift and some benefits to save face. However, when the village chief read the deed, the Fang family was stunned. It turned out to be a deed of sale that Fang Miaomiao had personally signed.

Later, the Fang family went to make trouble twice again, insisting on seeing the person. The servants of the Wen family came out impatiently and said that Fang Miaomiao made a mistake and offended the master of the Wen family as soon as she arrived at the Wen family, so she was sold to Xingfanglou.

"Xingfanglou is the kind of indecent place that men like to go to." Aunt Zhou was afraid that Ji Nuan didn't understand, so she explained in a low voice, "The Fang family really found Fang Miaomiao in Xingfanglou later, and beat the village chief's wife on the spot. This aunt was trying to matchmake for her niece, but in the end, she ended up luring her niece to the building. She usually pretends to be noble, so she deserves to be beaten!" Aunt Zhou said at the end, with an expression of gloating.
