The building was very rare in the north, let alone in a mountainous village in a comparatively remote city . It also was fairly delicate .
“It must be designed by a master,” Song Ruiping said .
“Go ahead . Let’s go in to have a look,” Su Xiaoxue said .
Though there was some green in the yard, it was still bleak . But, the delicacy still could be seen .
“The layout is rather unique,” Su Xiaoxue said .
“Hello, Lady Song . Hello, Miss Su . ” Wang Yao greeted them with a smile .
“Hello, Dr . Wang,” Song Ruiping said .
“Hello, Sir,” Su Xiaoxue said .
“Come in and have a seat . It is cold outside,” Wang Yao said .
The air-conditioner was turned on . It was warm in the room . The minimal furnishings could be considered simple and crude compared with the beauty of the building and delicacy of the yard’s layout .
“Please have some tea,” Wang Yao said . The tea gave off a strong fragrance .
“This time, I visited suddenly without telling you,” Song Ruiping said . “Please forgive me, Dr . Wang . ”
“No worries,” Wang Yao said . “I had promised that I would pay a visit as soon as possible when I left Jing last time, but I was tied up by some household matters . ”
He looked at Su Xiaoxue and smiled . “Miss Su, you look good . ”
He then started his diagnosis . Her face was ruddy, and the her eyes were spiritual . Additionally, her breath was balanced with strong energy .
He could smell the light fragrance from her body . It was like the orchid in an empty valley . It could said that her body had no problems expect for being unable to do activity on the ground .
“Sir, you can call me Xiaoxue,” Su Xiaoxue said with a smile . She didn’t know why she was so happy when seeing this man, who had thoroughly changed her life .
“Dr . Wang, could you please give her a check again?” Song Ruiping asked .
Wang Yao carefully checked her over . It was the same diagnosis as before .
“You are covering well,” Wang Yao said . “Now, the only problem she has is the unrecovered movement ability and poor coordination . Except for that, she is very healthy . ”
Xu Xiaoxue was indeed very healthy except for not being able to move normally . She was healthier than most common people . Her recovery was like a butterfly that came out from the cocoon or rejuvenation of dead wood . It could be seen as compensation from the sky to reward her for never giving up after experiencing so much torment .
“Really?” Song Ruiping had heard the condition from Chen Lao in Jing . Now hearing it from Wang Yao again, whom she trusted it more, she felt more surprised . She could thoroughly take her mind off her biggest worry .
“Thanks, Dr . Wang,” Su Xiaoxue said .
“You’ve flattered me . It is god that has blessed Xiaoxue,” Wang Yao replied .
It was the god unwilling to see the cute, beautiful, and tough girl put up with the torment any more . So, the god arranged for Wang Yao to treat her .
She would recover soon . There was refined neixi left in her body, which was an unexpected surprise . She could gain countless benefits from it in the future .
“Then, sorry to have disturbed you,” Song Ruiping said .
“No worries . ” Wang Yao said . It did not take much time for him to see Su Xiaoxue’s disease .
“Dr . Wang, since we come from Jing, we want to have a small trip to Haiqu . Do you have some recommendations?” Song Ruiping asked .
“A trip to Haiqu?” Wang Yao was confounded a bit .
The biggest characteristic of Haiqu was that it was near the sea . In deep winter, it was quite windy at the seaside . There were two mountains in Lianshan, but they were bleak in winter with the strong wind . There was no worthy sight to see . Wang Yao indeed could not think of any place suitable for the mother and her girl to stroll about .
“Lady Song, there are only few places in Haiqu that are worthy of strolling about in this season,” Wang Yao said . He did not want to cheat them but could not think of where they could go .
Song Ruiping was shocked a little . Su Xiaoxue was disappointed hearing his words .
No one could guess Wang Yao would reply like that . In fact, Song Ruiping just wanted Wang Yao to show his hospitality as a host and take them to wander around to make her girl happy .
“Ah, no matter,” she said .
She knew that it might not be because Wang Yao did not want to show them around . Instead, the mountainous city was really small . In such a season like deep winter, where could they go?
“You don’t have hurry to go back, do you?” Wang Yao asked .
“No,” Song Ruiping said .
Wang Yao thought carefully . He knew there were only two mountains worthy of strolling about . There was even a temple on the mountain . “Ah, there are two mountains here that have some artistic prospects . I can show you there if you want . ”
“Good,” Su Xiaoxue said with a smile .
“Then, I have to bother you,” Wang Yao said .
“Not at all,” Su Xiaoxue said .
Wang Yao drove in front of them to show the way . Two cars followed behind him .
“Ah?” Sun Yunsheng was coming out from his house when he saw the two cars with Jing plates . “Guests from Jing?”
He was clever . He knew the difference of the two plate numbers after one look, even though they were seemed quite normal .
“Are they very respectable guests?”
Jiulian was not high . It seemed to be quiet and beautiful in spring and summer, even in autumn . But, now it was in winter . There were very few people on it . And, it was very cold .
“Xiaoxue, do you feel cold?” Song Ruiping asked carefully .
“Not really . ” In fact, her face was chilled to be very red, but she was still quite happy .
“Stupid girl!” Song Ruiping was a bit worried about her girl .
Her legs could not yet move freely, so she sat in her wheelchair pushed by Chen Ying .
The mountainous roads were not bad . On the mountain, it was not very interesting to walk along the flat cement pavement . What’s more, there were some places where the wheelchair could not go . Su Xiaoxue was still really happy, like a bird escaping from its cage . She constantly looked around and asked Wang Yao questions from time to time . Her cheerful spirit infected the people around her .
“There is even a temple on the mountain?” Su Xiao curiously looked at the small temple on the hillside .
“It’s call Guangming Temple,” Wang Yao replied . It was a very normal name for a temple .
“Is it an ancient temple?” she asked .
“It used to be, but it was damaged,” Wang Yao said .
It was said that the temple had been built during the reign of emperor Qianlong in Qing Dynasty, possibly even before . It had been damaged in the movement after the country was founded . It had been thoroughly damaged expect for the groundwork .
“Really? What a pity,” Su Xiaoxue said .
“What about taking a look?” Wang Yao asked .
They went up to the stairs, but it was a little troublesome for Su Xiaoxue . Chen Ying was supposed to carry her on her back .
“Sit steadily . ” Wang Yao easily raised the wheelchair up by one hand and carried it on his back .
“You are so strong!” Su Xiaoxue exclaimed .
Chen Ying was not very surprised at that . She had seen his marvelous power on the Great Wall .
The temple was really new . One could guess that it had been built not long ago . It had no feeling of history, which made people going up the mountain lose interest . There were some monks in the temple .
“Benefactors, do you go up the mountain for making a wish?” A middle-aged monk approached them asked . He smiled after seeing them walk into the temple . It was uncommon to see visitors at this time of year .
“Hello . ” Wang Yao smiled and looked at the monk in front of them .
“Hello,” the monk greeted him .
“Is dog meat delicious?” Wang Yao asked .
“What?” The monk, Song Ruiping, Su Xiaoxue, and Cheng Ying were all shocked .
Then, Chen Ying smiled . She seemed familiar with the scene .
“I don’t understand what you are saying,” the monk said . “I am completely indifferent to worldly temptations as an ascetic . ”
“Ah, good!” Wang Yao smiled . “We won’t burn joss sticks . We will just take a look and worship . ”
“Good, please come in,” the monk said .
He looked at Su Xiaoxue and Cheng Ying in a different way . His eyes were fixed on them . Monks on the mountain rarely saw girls, let alone beauty .
“How beautiful the girls are,” he unconsciously said . “One is mighty in spirit and heroic bearing . The other one is so beautiful like a fairy . ”
“Am I beautiful?” A cheerful sound said, like an oriole among woods .
“What?” The monk was shocked .
Su Xiaoxue chuckled .
“Look at you!” Song Ruiping laughed and glared at her .
“You could help yourself,” the monk said angrily .
“Sir, did he really eat dog meat?” Su Xiaoxue asked after the monk stepped away .
“Yes, he did, and he ate a lot of it,” Wang Yao said .
The monk was so angry that his whole body quivered .
