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

Ji Shan took the men in the village and carried all the prey directly to the river to process it, and Chen Yu followed to watch the fun.

Ji Nuan took Song Jinbai home. As soon as they arrived at the gate, they saw an old woman peeking out of the door.

Ji Nuan quickly stepped forward and asked kindly, "Grandma Arnold, why don't you come into the house?"

"Oh, you're back, girl! I'm looking for you, so I won't go in." As he spoke, he took off the bamboo basket on his arm and said, "My son Arnold was bitten by a poisonous tongue the day before yesterday. If you hadn't happened to pass by when you were coming down the mountain, he might not have been able to accompany me. You have to pay a doctor's fee to see a doctor, and I can't afford it, so I'll give you this basket of eggs to eat. Don't despise it, girl."

Ji Nuan quickly waved her hand to refuse: "Grandma Arno, take it back quickly. We all live in the same village, so if anyone needs help, we should help them."

"This is not the same thing! You saved Arnold's life, and it's embarrassing for an old woman like me to bring such a small thing. Girl, take it quickly. If you don't accept it, how can I live with my heart?" As she said this, she pulled Ji Nuan's hand, with a guilty look on her face.

The family only had this old man and his child left, and they were living from one day to the next. Ji Nuan really couldn't accept her things. "Grandma Arnold, your life is already difficult. I'm afraid this basket of eggs must have taken a long time to collect. Arnold just got injured, you can take them back to nourish him. If you really feel sorry for him, come to my house and help me with things after he recovers."

"Hurry up and take it, girl. Your family is busy right now, so I won't bother you any more."

"Grandma Arno, then I'll buy this." Ji Nuan took the basket, took out a string of copper coins from her sleeve and put them in her hand. "Go back and buy Arno some delicious food to nourish him."

Grandma Arnold stammered, her eyes moistened, and she finally clenched the copper coin in her hand.

Ji Nuan, carrying a basket of eggs and with a warm smile on her face, led Song Jinbai into the yard.

In the courtyard, my aunt, uncle, and aunt were sitting together, happily chatting about family matters. When their eyes fell on Ji Nuan and Song Jinbai, they all stopped talking at the same time, and a subtle atmosphere instantly filled the air.

Song Jinbai's handsome face, gentle temperament, and tall and slender figure following Ji Nuan made the elders present take a few more glances at him, secretly guessing the identity of this young man in their hearts.

It was Ji Nuan who broke the silence. She walked forward and greeted the elders one by one.

The aunt couldn't help but lower her voice and ask, "Nuannuan, who is the young man next to you?" She thought her voice was so soft that no one else could hear it, but in fact, her aunt and uncle were also very curious and they pricked up their ears to listen clearly.

Ji Nuan playfully imitated her aunt's mysterious demeanor and explained in a low voice, "Aunt, this Mr. Song is the owner of Ping'an Medical Clinic. I sold my patent medicine to him."

Upon hearing this, her aunt's face lit up with sudden realization. She then carefully examined Song Jinbai, her eyes full of admiration. She whispered to Ji Nuan, "Nuannuan, this Mr. Song is truly a handsome man with a distinguished demeanor. You must be extremely attentive and treat him well. Don't let him think we're being disrespectful."

Ji Nuan smiled and nodded in agreement, "Don't worry, aunt, I know what I'm doing. If I don't treat you well, and if Young Master Song gets upset and refuses to accept my patented medicine, then I won't make any money."

My aunt nodded in agreement.

Song Jinbai laughed out loud. He didn't expect Ji Nuan to be so naughty that she even dared to tease her elders.

He stepped forward and bowed, "Greetings, elders. I am Song Jinbai, the owner of Ping An Medical Clinic."

As the oldest elder, my aunt quickly stood up upon seeing this, and with a gesture of support, she said repeatedly, "Oh, good, good, Mr. Song, there is no need to be so polite. Please take a seat."

Ji Nuan interrupted at the right moment, a warm smile on her face: "Aunt, look at how spacious our yard is now. It's a rare visit for you elders, so you should stay a few more days." After that, she turned to her aunt and said, "By the way, Aunt, how do you feel about the bottle of face cream I gave you when Ji He got married last time? Do you like it?"

"Oh, I've lived for most of my life, and this old face of mine has never enjoyed such luxurious treatment!" My aunt said as she gently stroked her cheek with her hand, her eyes sparkling with surprise. Then she turned to my aunt and uncle and said with a bit of pride: "Look, doesn't my face look younger, smoother to the touch, and even my skin looks much whiter?"

Upon hearing this, my aunt immediately came forward to take a closer look, her eyes full of envy.

My aunt even went straight to it, stroking it gently, praising it with her mouth: "Oh, the feeling is just like when I was young, delicate and smooth!"

Seeing this, the aunt pretended to look at Ji Nuan with an angry look and said with a smile: "Look at you, girl, you are biased towards your aunt. You didn't even leave a portion for us with such a good thing. You are hiding it on purpose, right?" Although there was a hint of joking in her words, it was more of love and pampering for Ji Nuan.

Ji Nuan immediately raised her hands exaggeratedly, pretending to be innocent and wronged, and said exaggeratedly: "Oh, it's unfair! I let you guys stay for a few more days, wasn't it because I wanted to take the opportunity to give you some good things as a filial piety? You really make me heartbroken when you say that!"

Song Jinbai quietly watched Ji Nuan acting cute and adorable, the corners of his mouth unconsciously raised, his eyes full of pampering and tenderness for her.

Several people were also amused by Ji Nuan's wit and playfulness, and the atmosphere in the yard became lively again, as if the silence just now had never existed.

Before the banquet began, the Ji family was bustling with activity. Shopkeepers Song and Lou, each bearing gifts, arrived at the same time. Jun Xianlan's two guards also came bearing generous gifts to congratulate her, sparking another wave of envy from the villagers.

For the villagers, the lunch meal was undoubtedly a double feast for the eyes and taste.

The whole stewed chicken is golden and attractive, full of fragrance, and the meat is tender and crispy. The meat and bones can be separated with a slight tear, which is mouth-watering.

The braised rabbit meat is piled high, with a bright red color and rich sauce. Every bite is an ultimate tease for the taste buds.

A large pot of braised pork belly, with alternating fat and lean meat, melts in your mouth, with the fat and sauce interweaving on your tongue to create a wonderful flavor.

The stewed pig's trotters are oily, with glutinous skin and tender meat. They are rich in collagen and are very delicious.

The red oil fish fillets fill the entire basin. The bright red chili oil forms a sharp contrast with the snow-white fish fillets. The fish fillets are tender and smooth, the red oil is spicy, and each fillet is covered with rich soup.

The fried crispy dried fish is golden and crispy. A light bite will leave a lingering fragrance in your mouth. It is a great dish to go with wine.

The pork ribs soup with meat is light and refreshing, the soup is clear and the taste is delicious. The meat on the ribs falls off easily and the meat is delicious.

For the first time, the villagers did not glare at each other because they could not get any meat. Everyone ate meat and drank soup with big mouthfuls, their mouths full of oil, and praised the Ji family for their generosity.
