"Thank you . "
"Why are you being so polite?" Li Maoshuang replied .
"Why don't we have dinner together tonight? It's my treat!"
"Sure . "
The place they dined in town was rather busy . They hung out together and chatted .
"Are you still always on the hill?"
"This is the kind of life that I like . " Wang Yao smiled and took a sip of his drink .
"Sigh . If I were him, I think I'd fall ill . " Wei Hai smiled and took a sip of wine .
Ever since his illness was cured, he started to drink again . Of course, he had self control . He would not drink on normal days . He would only drink some when he had gatherings with family and friends . Furthermore, he was a lot more productive . He would have a reunion with his family, take his children around for a stroll, and go to his company occasionally .
"You're just not used to it . It'll be fine when you're used to it . "
Ring, ring . Tian Yuantu's mobile phone rang .
"Sorry . I'll take this call outside . " Tian Yuantu smiled as he left .
He came back within 10 minutes . He was still smiling . Wang Yao, who was attentive, could tell that Tian Yuantu was worried .
Everyone went their separate ways after dinner .
"Brother Tian . " Wang Yao stopped Tian Yuantu .
"What's the matter?"
"If you need a hand, don't hesitate to ask me for help," Wang Yao said .
"Huh?" Tian Yuantu was startled . "Alright . "
He did have to worry . The phone call just now gave him a little headache . His company in Jing was being investigated .
"Drive safe . " Tian Yuantu smiled while patting Wang Yao's shoulder . He then got into his car and left .

After getting into the car, Tian Yuantu said in a low voice, "He can indeed help me out on this matter . "
In fact, Wang Yao was able to help him with the trouble he was facing in Jing because he knew very well about the Guo family . They were the richest and most powerful family . The Guo family could solve the problems he faced with a phone call . However, he had not said that to Wang Yao . He wanted to use his own connections first . If all else failed, he would then trouble Wang Yao .
Wang Yao drove home . When he arrived where the road was being repaired, he discovered that someone was actually burning spiritual money .
What's going on?
Wang Yao stopped the car to take a look .
Could it be that something has happened?
It was only 9 p . m . when he arrived home . After parking the car, he went into the room and gave his parents a massage . He casually talked about what he had encountered on the road .
"Something happened in the afternoon . Someone died while the road was being repaired . "
"What? It's just a small road and someone actually died?" Wang Yao was shocked . "An accident?"
They just had to repair the road . They did not have to demolish it using any explosives and special tools . How could there be an accident?
"A man was grazed by the excavator . He was sent to the hospital, but he could not be saved . "
"Grazed?"
"Yes . He was hit in the head . "
No wonder!
Engineers were the most superstitious . It was extremely unlucky that an accident occurred and someone had died on the first day of the construction, hence the scene that night . They burned some spiritual money to let the soul of the deceased, who was probably at the accident scene, be reincarnated sooner in the netherworld to prevent any trouble .
What a coincidence! Could he have saved the deceased if he was there? Wang Yao thought .
"Father, Mother, I'll go up the hill . "
"Okay, be careful . Bring a torch . "
"It's okay . I can go up the hill even with my eyes closed," Wang Yao replied .

It was still cool outside at night . Even though it was almost 10 p . m . , there were many people still enjoying the cool outside on the village streets .
"Yao, are you going up the hill again?"
"Yes, Uncle . " Wang Yao responded politely when he ran into elders who asked him questions .
Many villagers had a good impression of this polite young man . Regardless of what he was doing on the hill, his manners and conduct were excellent .
People who had gone to school were just different! That was the opinion of the villagers .
After arriving at the hill, he started to prepare the medicinal herbs . He was going to decoct the Blood Deblocking powder the next day .
The mountain wind was whistling somewhat abnormally, but it was still gentle like the spring breeze in the battle array .
Early in the morning the next day, the person in charge who contracted the road-widening project personally came to where the accident occurred . He invited a special person to fiddle with some things . There were offerings, spiritual money, and salutes .
There were many onlookers by the roadside . This was the interest of the Chinese people .
"What's going on?"
"Didn't you hear of it? Someone died here yesterday due to the road repair work!"
"Someone died?"
"Yes . That's why there's a worship here . "
It was time . Incense and spiritual money were burned . Firecrackers were lit . It was even more bustling than when the repairing work of the road had started .
…
The firewood was crackling and spluttering and burning slowly . .
Wang Yao looked at the herbal medicine in the multifunctional pot for herbs quietly .
Ephedra, angelica, Chinese Peony… Polygonum vine and Ziyu .
All the herbs were added one by one . The aroma of the medicine permeated the cottage .
One had to be calm and patient when decocting medicine .

In addition to having excellent pharmaceutical skills, a good medicine worthy of the valuable medicinal herbs could only be decocted when there was a right time, place, and person .
It was successful .
Looking at the change of color of the herbal medicine, Wang Yao quickly took the pot away from the flame . After the temperature of the herbal medicine had dropped, he poured the herbal medicine into two white porcelain bottles .
They could come and collect the medicine anytime . Special patients should consume special medicine .
…
In the Su family's house in Jing .
"How do you feel, Xiaoxue?"
Every day, Song Ruiping spent most of her time accompanying and talking to her daughter . Or, she would do nothing and just accompany her by sitting in front of the window .
"I'm much better, Mother . Rest for a bit . " Su Xiaoxue was recovering . Her voice had also changed . It became clearer .
"I'm not tired . Why don't I help you get up?"
With the recovery of her body, Su Xiaoxue was able to sit up, although it was just for a while .
She still felt that there was a burning sensation in her body from time to time, but it was in the deeper parts of her body . She could tolerate the feeling . It was completely different from the previous feeling that made her feel as if she was being grilled upon a flame .
I really need to thank Dr . Wang Yao properly .
She wanted to see the doctor again badly and thank him face-to-face . However, he had not come for a long time . It had been 87 days, almost three months .
Would he come again?
"What are you thinking about?" Song Ruiping asked gently .
"I'm thinking about how to express my gratitude to Dr . Wang . "
Song Ruiping laughed . "He said that he'll come again as soon as possible . "
"Okay," Su Xiaoxue responded .
Although she was born into a wealthy family, she did not have the temperament of a spoiled girls at all . She was the typical girl from an eminent family .
"Madam . " Just as the mother and daughter were talking, someone knocked on the door and came into the room .
"What's the matter?"
"Guo Zhenghe of the Guo family is in the living room . He said he's here to see Miss . "
"Okay . Invite him in . " Song Ruiping's eyebrows raised a little .
After a while, Guo Zhenghe entered the room with a bright smile .
"Hello, Aunty . Xiaoxue, how are you feeling?"
"I'm a lot better . Thank you . "
"It's really great that you're able to sit up!" Guo Zhenghe said delightedly .
Judging from his expression, it was as if the girl sitting on the bed was a relative he was very close to .
"Don't stand . Take a seat and talk . "
"Okay . "
"Drink some tea . " Someone served some tea .
"Thank you . Aunty, did Dr . Wang not say when he's going to come again?"
"He only said that he'll come as soon as possible," Song Ruiping replied .
"Actually, a person like him with extraordinary pharmaceutical technology should be in Jing . The world here is more vast," Guo Zhenghe said .
"Jing and the mountain village each has their own good . Different people have different aspirations . It can't be forced," Song Ruiping answered . She hoped that Wang Yao could stay in Jing as well, so that her daughter's illness could be cured .
However, Wang Yao had his own thoughts . He did not value things like power and money that much .
"Oh right . I'm here for another matter . Dai Lao of Chuanzhong will return to Jing after three days . Aunty, do you think it's necessary to ask him to come over to take a look at Xiaoxue's illness?" Guo Zhenghe asked .
"Dai Chaozong, Dai Lao?"
"Yes, it's him . "
"That's hard to come by . He doesn't leave Chuanzhong easily . Zhenghe, please tell him to come over to take a look at Xiaoxue's illness if he has the time . "
