The Great Physician

Falling in Love with You (630bookla Chapter of The Great Physician)

The floor heater in the room was blasting hot.

The woman washing her hair sat on the kang (a heated brick bed) with her hair down, twisting it with such focus and concentration.

She wore a plain gray undershirt; the fabric was neither exquisite nor elaborate, and the style was rather unremarkable.

But even in such ordinary clothes, she exudes a unique and noble air, as if she were someone to be admired from afar and not to be trifled with.

With Li Xunda's orders, the servants are very efficient. They are now living in a large house.

The main room of Zhizhitang.

Zhizhitang is located on the east side of the inner residence of the Li family. Passing through the hall, it is the east wing of Li Xunda's outer courtyard facing the street.

Originally, there were several servants sweeping and cleaning in the courtyard. After they heated the house and prepared hot water, Chan sent them away.

She then commanded, "No one is allowed to approach without my sister's permission."

Of course, it was my sister's order, but the servants didn't know that.

At this time, only the two of them were in the main room, and the dog was taken away by a servant to be cared for.

Some people might ask, "What about the cat?" When a cat goes wild, its owner can't find it.

The room was fully furnished, with a low square table on the kang (a heated brick bed) covered by a clean old cotton cushion that hung down to the table legs and could cover the entire table.

After finishing her work, Chan took off her shoes and climbed onto the kang (heated brick bed). She put her feet under the table leg and got off the kang, which was still warm from the fire. The warm air from the cotton pad made her feet feel like they were bathing in a spring breeze, which was incredibly comfortable.

Chan exclaimed, "I've never lived in such a house before." She pointed north and south, "The house is really big and bright from north to south."

Because the houses in Qingyun Manor used to face west and get good lighting, not to mention the one next to the ancestral hall.

Then Chan let out a long breath: "Comfortable." The relaxed comfort in her eyes was a blissful intoxication that made her willing to die. Then she lay back on the kang and didn't move.

Li Ruozhu chuckled and said, "Don't make yourself feel comfortable now and then cry."

"How?"

As soon as Chan sat up and finished speaking, she felt a heat rising from her feet like flames to her chest, making her feel unbearably hot. She then spat it out.

"Oh my god, we can't let it catch fire!" She kicked her legs and scrambled to the ground, nearly overturning the rough table.

When she got to the ground and turned around, Li Ruozhuo looked at her.

She looked puzzled: "It's not on fire?" Then she took a towel off her head, unfolded it, and handed it to the woman who was holding the cotton pad.

As Chan took it, she said, "Sister, I really felt like there was a fire just now, and I was burned to death."

Li Ruozhuo pointed to the outer room: "Go hang up the towel and come back. I'll tell you what happened."

Chan went to find her shoes.

When she returned, her sister, who had been so obedient, suddenly lowered her gaze and asked, "Sister, you're not playing tricks on me again, are you?"

She learned to be wary after so many times.

Li Ruozhuo's eyes widened: "How could I possibly play a trick on you? What kind of relationship do we have?"

That's not the kind of relationship where you depend on each other for survival.

Chan sat down next to her sister and tugged at her sleeve; "What exactly happened?"

Do you remember the mnemonic I taught you?

"What incantation?" Chan covered her mouth and her sister mumbled something about inside and outside (yin and yang), which she couldn't understand at all.

Li Ruozhuo tapped her forehead: "I knew you wouldn't practice diligently. Why do you think we slept in that cold room? Your true essence imprint is the Big Dipper, the light in the night, the light in the night, the light in the yang, the light in the yang. You need to cultivate both yin and yang to improve your cultivation. In other words, you can absorb all the power of the five elements. Also, because your imprint was transplanted from someone else, anyone with a little skill can test your cultivation. By sleeping on a cold bed and practicing the Cold Ice Technique, your imprint will merge with your body and won't be constantly visible. When a cultivator frequently exposes their cultivation, it's like letting others figure out their secrets, which is extremely dangerous. Moreover, the colder the place you sleep, the more you'll circulate your qi to dispel the cold, thus increasing your yang power cultivation. It's a pity you're wasting your time."

Chan was dumbfounded: "No wonder you sleep all day, you were practicing martial arts?"

Li Ruozhuo said, "To be precise, I am practicing with you."

"Come with me?"

Li Ruozhu smiled with a smirk: "That's not like me, a master who has already defeated many enemies, why would I need to train?"

"The enemy still eats two cold meals?" Chan stuck out her tongue.

Li Ruozhu chuckled and didn't argue with her.

He said, "I'll teach you another Netherfire Spell. When you're hot, don't forget the Frost Spell. When you're cold, use it to dispel the cold. You didn't learn the Frost Spell before, so you can't practice the Netherfire Spell now." He sighed, "No, it will improve your cultivation, but you'll be able to control it freely when you encounter danger..."

Chan said, "Sister, you really taught me everything. It turns out you were willing to suffer for my sake."

Li Ruozhuo sighed again: "Otherwise, you'll always be holding us back."

So they still despise her for being useless.

Following Li Ruozhuo's instructions, Chan sat cross-legged on the kang (a heated brick bed) to practice the Netherfire Spell.

Although I'm a bit lazy, I've become very serious about practicing after realizing the importance of it.

After Li Ruozhuo poured himself a glass of water and drank it, he was already drenched in sweat.

Li Ruozhu called a halt: "Let's practice gradually tomorrow."

Chan jumped down to take a bath.

A voice came from behind the curtain of the outer room: "Miss Jiechan, this servant has come to deliver your meal."

Chan Dadao: "Will there be anything to eat when we get back?"

Li Ruozhuo shook his head: "How would I know?"

"Don't you know? Hasn't the lady been punished by the master? That Lady Zhen seems particularly powerful with someone backing her up. Do you think they would mistreat us?"

Li Ruozhuo sat down on the edge of the kang (a heated brick bed) while flipping his hair, and smiled faintly at Chan: "Unless someone else takes over the management of Zhizhitang, it's still the same old story. The county magistrate is not as powerful as the local official. The wife will not only not submit, but will become even more demanding."

Chan's face fell; "Was the adults acting just now?"

Li Ruozhuo laughed again: "No, not really."

"So, will we ever be able to escape this sea of ​​suffering?"

"Whether it's possible or not is entirely up to the Sect Master." Li Ruozhuo pointed to the door; "I'm calling you, are you still dawdling?"

"Is Miss Chan here?"

Chan ran away crying out in pain.

“My lord, it is my fault for not being strict with my children, but it is getting late and you must not skip your meal. If you are feeling depressed, you can eat first before scolding me. I will not starve.”

When Madam Zhen returned, Li Xunda saw the guests off and also presented the gifts sent by Princess Caiyun's residence.

So it was already late when he arrived at the Qin family's courtyard. By then, the Qin family had already changed and was wearing a pale yellow floral jacket and a crescent-white skirt. She looked as beautiful as a spring flower and was not at all like someone who had given birth.

Li Xunda saw that she was all smiles and no longer trembling with fear; the pitiful look she had given under the sycamore tree was nowhere to be seen.

He sat down on the low table in the hall, his face grim, and said, "You think this matter is over? You abused Ah Zhuo, deceived me, and kept things from me. You have completely disgraced me."

Madam Qin smiled and said, "It was I who made that Lady Zhen. Your Excellency, you are so discerning. How could I be such a person? However, I also bear some responsibility. It is true that I was not strict enough in managing my subordinates. I will go with them to apologize to Sister Azhuo later."

Wan thought to himself that he and his companions were in great pain and anger, clearly not intending to let Ah Zhuo go.

The way to
