Just when Chen Lang was hesitant, the village chief's voice came from outside the door: "Chen Erlang, are you home?"

"If you have a distinguished guest, come out and greet him if you are at home."

Guoguo, who was jumping around with a steamed bun in his hand, was instantly frozen in place as if he had been cast under a spell.

Chen Lang patted her head and told her to stay in the kitchen and not go out.

He immediately pretended to be weak and walked into the yard with the support of Li Xiuzhi.

When the village chief saw Chen Lang, he said jokingly, "Chen Erlang, you're damn lucky."

Chen Lang asked in confusion: "Village Chief, what do you mean?"

The village chief made way and said, "Look who's here?"

Behind the village chief was an old man with a kind face.

Next to the old man stood the well-behaved Xu Fei, holding a box in his hand.

In addition, there were many other villagers.

Like Aunt Qi, Chen Dabao and others.

Chen Lang was surprised and asked, "Old sir? Why are you here? Please take a seat."

This old man was Xu Fei’s teacher, Sun Sizhen, who was rescued by Chen Lang at the riverside.

Sun Sizhen stroked his long goatee and said, "Little brother, I finally found you."

"I finally have the chance to repay you for saving my life."

Chen Lang hurriedly said, "Old man, you're too polite. Anyone who saw the situation at that time would help."

Sun Sizhen said: "That being said, it was you who saved my life after all. If I don't repay this favor, even the Grandmaster will not forgive me."

"Yesterday, my disciple came back from his free clinic and mentioned you. I suddenly had a feeling that you might be the savior I've been searching for."

"What I saw today was not in vain. I am very happy."

After saying that, he glanced at Xu Fei.

Xu Fei immediately stepped forward and handed the box to Chen Lang.

Sun Sizhen continued, "Inside the box is the only century-old ginseng in Pingzhilin. This is my gift of gratitude to my benefactor."

Chen Lang said, "Old sir, how can this be done?"

"Old mountain ginseng is extremely valuable, I am ashamed to accept it."

Sun Sizhen said: "Compared to Laoshan's involvement in life, it's not worth mentioning."

Xu Fei also said, "Brother Chen, please accept it. My teacher is a stubborn person. If you don't accept it, he will destroy it on the spot."

"Instead of destroying it, why not use it to recuperate your body?"

Chen Lang winked at Xu Fei, meaning what on earth was going on?

Xu Fei shrugged slightly, indicating that you shouldn't ask me, I don't know either.

Sun Sizhen cleared her throat, turned to look at the village chief, and said, "Village chief, please ask the others to leave first. I need to take another look at my benefactor's body to see if there is anything else that needs attention."

The village chief nodded repeatedly: "Okay, okay, thank you for troubling the old doctor."

The village chief walked out and closed the gate.

Just as Chen Lang was about to speak, he heard Sun Sizhen say, "Walls have ears. Go to the inner room."

Chen Lang took the two of them to the inner room again.

"Old man, please take this ginseng back. I was just pretending to be sick, so how can I accept such a valuable gift?" Chen Lang pushed the box in front of Sun Sizhen.

Sun Sizhen tapped her fingers lightly on the box a few times and sighed, "You young people always lack long-term planning when doing things."

"My dear nephew, let me ask you, without this old mountain ginseng, are you really going to pretend to be sick at home for half a month?"

Chen Lang was suddenly embarrassed.

Sun Sizhen looked at Xu Fei again: "And you!"

Xu Fei smiled awkwardly and said, "Teacher, what's wrong with me?"

"A person who has no interest in alchemy on weekdays has been pestering me to prepare pills recently. I thought you had come up with something, but after all your troubles, you came up with something like this?" Sun Sizhen said unhappily.

"Should I be happy that you didn't insist on developing the elixir on your own and even came to ask me? Or should I be angry that the elixir you refined with my help only achieved this effect?"

Xu Fei lowered his head and muttered, "Teacher, I think this result is pretty good."

Sun Sizhen laughed in anger. "How dare you say that, Xu Fei? If I hadn't noticed something was wrong and insisted on coming to Hezhong Village to check on him, my nephew Chen would have had to pretend to be sick at home for half a month. If he had given up and wanted to go out to earn money that day, and the villagers had discovered him, how would he have been able to live in the village from now on? Wouldn't Pingzhilin's reputation have been completely ruined?"

Xu Fei said guiltily: "It's not that serious..."

Sun Sizhen nodded at Xu Fei a few times and said, "I'll settle the score with you when we get back."

"Nephew Chen, I came here today not only to give you ginseng, but also to allow you to return to a normal life immediately."

"When I get out later, I will tell the villagers that you have recovered almost completely and can do everything except heavy work."

"As for wild ginseng, you don't have to think it's expensive, because it's not a hundred years old, it's only twenty years old."

"Your wife is suffering from both Qi and blood deficiency, so taking wild ginseng is the best option. Of course, you can also take it. After all, that pill contains too many Yin herbs. If you don't replenish your internal heat, you won't be able to have sex for a long time."

As soon as these words were spoken, Li Xiuzhi's pretty face beside her turned blood red.

Chen Lang was struck by lightning and mumbled, "Brother Xu, I didn't offend you, did I?"

Xu Fei could even dig out a small courtyard with three entrances and three exits on the ground with his toes. "For the sake of realistic effect, please forgive me, please forgive me."

Sun Sizhen gave Chen Lang a few more injections to help remove some of the cold poison in his body.

"There's still some residual medicinal properties. Drink a bowl of wild ginseng soup every other day, and you'll be back to normal in half a month."

"During this time, sexual intercourse is strictly prohibited. If you damage your kidneys, it will be difficult to replenish them later."

Chen Lang was extremely grateful and bowed to express his thanks.

Although there is a half-month window period, the relationship between me and Li Xiuzhi is not yet at the stage where we can do anything. The half-month of abstaining from desire is just right for us to strengthen our relationship.

Sun Sizhen said, "Rest in bed for an hour. I'll take my leave now."

Chen Lang said, "Xiuzhi, please send the old doctor for me."

After sending Sun Sizhen to the gate, he explained to the villagers waiting outside the yard as he had promised, saying that Chen Lang's body had almost recovered after his further diagnosis and treatment.

Except for the heavy farm work that cannot be done temporarily, you can take care of everything else by yourself.

The villagers were all happy for Chen Lang and his family.

Li Xiuzhi went to see Sun Sizhen off. Aunt Qi and other villagers also chatted as they walked home.

Aunt Seven said jokingly, "If Qin knew this news, she would be so angry that she would vomit three liters of blood."

"Of course she did. She thought Chen Lang wasn't up to the task, but who would have guessed that Chen Lang was the kindhearted man who saved the old doctor Ping Zhilin? The old doctor came to the village in person to see him. This is a privilege not even the county magistrate has ever received."

"So, isn't Chen Lang even more powerful than the county magistrate?"

"That makes sense, haha!"
