However, Ning Yan hadn't been to the clinic for a long time. His family had sold herbs for a few years and made a lot of money, so they stopped digging herbs to sell.

Ning Chengyong would only come to the clinic occasionally when he saw precious herbs. The rest of the time he lived a life of ease in the village.

Seeing Ning Yan, the waiter smiled and said, "Brother Yan, have you found any rare herbs today?"

"No, come and get some medicine." Ning Yan said with a smile.

"What medicine do you want?" asked the waiter.

Upon hearing this, Ning Yan handed over the list of medicinal herbs he had written in advance.

Seeing this, the waiter helped him get the medicine, glanced at Huo Yu who was following behind him, and said, "Do you want to see this brother again?"

"Not for now." Ning Yan said.

The waiter didn't ask any more questions after hearing this. They were not the only clinic, and maybe this person had been seen somewhere else.

Then he chatted with Ning Yan again and said, "Brother Yan, is this person a relative of yours?"

"No, we are looking for a date, and we will get married once we choose one." Ning Yan said frankly.

When the guy heard this, his hand that was grabbing the medicine trembled and he almost spilled the medicine.

He quickly grabbed the scale and prevented the medicine from falling to the ground.

Then he stared at Ning Yan, then at Huo Yan, with eyes wide open, and whispered in disbelief, "Brother Yan, did he threaten you?"

"No." Ning Yan smiled and shook his head.

"Did he threaten your family?"

"nor."

"Is it because his family has more money? Or is it because his family holds a higher position in the government?"

"neither."

"Then why did you marry him?" the guy asked with a look of confusion.

This guy looks like a sickly person, he looks like he can't walk for a few steps. What's the point of marrying him? Because he's weak, so that you can be a widow in the future?

"He is handsome." Ning Yan said steadily.

Good-looking? Upon hearing this, the man looked at Huo Yu again, then shook his head secretly, thinking: I'm afraid that brother Huo Yu has an eye disease.

How is this person good-looking? His cheekbones are protruding from his skinny face. He looks extremely ill and listless. How can he be considered good-looking?

But he didn't ask too much. Marriage is based on the parents' orders and the matchmaker's words, and it is not his place as an outsider to make irresponsible remarks.

Huo Yu had good hearing, and although they lowered their voices, he could still hear clearly what the two people said.

After listening to it, I was speechless again.

Anyway, he couldn't understand why he and Ning Yan had gotten together like this, but he was still very satisfied with this marriage. His wife was beautiful, rich, and had medical skills. How could he not be satisfied? He was so satisfied!

After getting the medicine, the two of them left the clinic. The waiter looked at their backs as they left and shook his head, saying what a pity, what a pity for Brother Zheng.

After buying snacks, the two went to the butcher shop to buy some mutton to make mutton soup.

This butcher shop sells both pork and mutton. Pork is always available, but the availability of mutton depends on the situation. Because mutton is expensive and ordinary people cannot afford it, most of the mutton is sent whole to restaurants or wealthy families.

Occasionally, you would see it sold in shops, so Ning Jian came here to try his luck.

When Ning Jian and Huo arrived, they saw that there were still 5 kilograms of mutton and some mutton offal left, so he took them all.

Mutton in Donglin State costs 800 coins per catty. Ning Jian paid 4 taels and 200 coins for five catties of mutton and two catties of mutton offal. The mutton offal was half bought and half given away.
