Leng Qinghe asked with concern: "Brother, are you feeling better?"

There were two women following behind her.

Leng Qinghe had already sat down opposite Shen Shaoyu as he spoke, and the two women in yellow knelt down to salute him, their postures elegant and graceful.

Shen Shaoyu nodded gently, indicating that they didn't need to be polite, and then said to Leng Qinghe, "He's almost recovered. He will be fully recovered in another two weeks."

"So fast?" Leng Qinghe was slightly surprised. "Didn't my master say that I needed to recuperate for half a year? How long have you recovered?"

Shen Shaoyu narrowed his narrow eyes and said lightly, "I met a miracle doctor!"

"What kind of miracle doctor is this? Is he better than my master?"

Leng Qinghe's face was filled with surprise. She looked around and asked in confusion, "Hey, where's my master?"

"The old saint went down the mountain to discuss medical skills with the miracle doctor." Jin Qi lowered his head and answered respectfully.

Leng Qinghe nodded and said with interest: "I also want to meet this miracle doctor!"

Shen Shaoyu changed the subject and asked, "How are grandparents?"

"Grandpa and grandma are in good health, cousin, don't worry about them."

Leng Qinghe is the last disciple of the Saint Master and also Shen Shaoyu's cousin.

"I heard that my cousin got engaged last month. I missed it due to my health, but I have prepared the gift."

As soon as Shen Shaoyu finished speaking, Jin Qi immediately turned around and went back to the house.

Leng Qinghe's cheeks flushed, and she bit her lip and said embarrassedly: "Yes, the marriage has been decided, and the wedding date is set for after March."

You can tell from her expression that she likes her fiancé.

Shen Shaoyu wanted to say something but stopped himself. He saw that his cousin had fallen in love.

But the man she was engaged to was Liang Chao, the prince of the Marquis of Loyalty and Bravery in the capital.

This cousin has been loved by everyone since she was a child. Her family is the richest in Jiangnan. Although she is a merchant, she is rich enough to rival a country. She controls half of the economic lifeline of Beiming Kingdom and is also called the Emperor of Commerce, which means that she has absolute say in the business world.

But merchants are merchants, and the scholars, farmers, artisans and merchants are looked down upon by that group of people, who think they are superior to others.

Leng Qinghe grew up in Yaowang Valley and studied under the Saint Elder. He was innocent and carefree since childhood. He had never experienced any major storms or been exposed to any dirty things.

She is actually not suitable to marry into such a wealthy family.

However, Liang Chao was a top scholar in the imperial examination, and he was indeed a handsome man. Since his cousin was willing to marry, Shen Shaoyu didn't say anything. He just said, "You will be staying in the capital all alone after you get married. Don't cry when the time comes."

The Leng family are all in Jiangnan, and Yaowang Valley is in the remote area of ​​Nanhuaizhou. Leng Qinghe will be alone if she marries into the Marquis' Mansion.

Leng Qinghe thought about her marriage, and her smile became more gentle, but she didn't want to be the only one being teased.

"My cousin is two years older than me and is already twenty-four. It's time for him to start thinking about his own marriage. You are my grandparents' only grandson, and they worry about you more than they do about me."

Shen Shaoyu has always been a chaste man and has never had any woman around him.

Leng Qinghe couldn't help but think of the things that her grandmother was worried about before she left, and her face flushed.

My grandmother said that when a boy is fourteen he will have a maid to teach him about this, when he is sixteen he should have sex, and when he is eighteen he must get married.

But my cousin is already 24 years old, and there is no woman around him. He hangs out with men all day long. Therefore, my grandmother seriously suspects that my cousin is a homosexual!

Of course, she didn't dare to ask this out loud.

Shen Shaoyu pursed his lips and said self-deprecatingly, "I'm a lonely man, why should I get married?"

Leng Qinghe's face turned pale. She was very sad, but she still comforted Shen Shaoyu.

"Oh, why do you think so much! You are my aunt's only son, and I have long regarded you as my own brother.

"Your grandparents have repeatedly suggested that you change your surname to Leng, enter the Leng family tree, and become a child of the Leng family, but you yourself refused."

Shen Shaoyu curled his lips, his expression indifferent, but he didn't say anything else.

At this time.

"I'm back!" Saint shouted from a distance.

He strode into the courtyard. Leng Qinghe immediately stood up, walked forward and shouted, "Master!"

When the old saint saw her, his eyes lit up immediately.

"Qing He? I'm so glad you're here!"

Leng Qinghe smiled, thinking that his master was happy to see him.

The next moment, the old man said, "How much silver did you bring? Give me forty thousand taels!"

Leng Qinghe was stunned for a moment, but still answered honestly, "I brought 50,000 taels. Master, what do you want so much silver for?"

As the eldest daughter of the Shang Emperor, she certainly had no shortage of money, but asking for 40,000 taels at once was indeed not a small amount.

The old saint sighed. He thought that as the master of the Medicine King Valley, he never expected that there would be a day when he would have to worry about money. It was really not easy to be away from home.

If this happened in Nanhuaizhou, in his old base, he could come up with not only 40,000 taels, but even 4 million taels.

Fortunately, he has an apprentice who lacks everything except money.

He told the story of how he blocked the way and waited for Yuan Junyao at the foot of the mountain.

Leng Qinghe was speechless after hearing this.

"Master, no wonder they charged you 40,000 taels. Even if I charged you 100,000 taels, it wouldn't be enough!"

Her master is good in every way. He has superb medical skills and is kind-hearted and capable. However, he is a little bit stupid. Apart from treating patients, he always does some ridiculous things.

The old man scratched his head and asked in confusion, "What's wrong with me? I just want to learn medical skills from her."

Leng Qinghe said helplessly, "I'm afraid they thought you were crazy. You should really be grateful that they were kind enough not to beat you up."

After saying this, she looked at her cousin in surprise.

"Your token..."

Shen Shaoyu said expressionlessly, "I dropped it accidentally." He turned his gaze to the Saint Elder, his eyes narrowed dangerously, "You didn't take it back?"

The old man was a little frightened after feeling his gaze, and subconsciously hid behind his disciple, laughing and saying, "The girl said she would wait for you by the waterfall in the afternoon.

If you want the token, go get it yourself. If you don’t want it, she’ll just throw it by the pond.”

Shen Shaoyu remained silent.

However, the other woman in yellow beside Leng Qinghe couldn't help but criticize, "Whoa, that person? How could she be so tactless? Shouldn't she have handed the token over respectfully?"

"Qingyue!" Leng Qinghe's face darkened and he said unhappily, "Don't be rude."

Leng Qingyue curled her lips and said reluctantly, "Yes, elder sister."

Leng Qingyue is the second illegitimate daughter of the Leng family.

At this time, another woman in yellow took over and said, "That person is a country woman. She probably doesn't know the value of this token."

Leng Qingyue snorted coldly, "A country woman dares to ask for 40,000 taels right out of her mouth. Why doesn't she just go and rob it? Who knows if that medical book is useful?"

No one paid any attention to her, but she became more excited.

"My cousin has Saint Lao treating his body. Who knows if it's her medicine that's working or Saint Lao's medicine?"
