Marry the first wife

Chapter 125 The Low Period

It was so crowded that I couldn't find an empty spot.

Fu Yao listened to the shouting in her ears and felt that her mind was in a mess, full of paste and couldn't distinguish astronomy and geography, so she nodded silently.

"Looking at the sad look on the young master's face, is there something that cannot be solved?" The old man with a white beard sat aside and asked softly.

The voice was very low, but Fu Yao still heard his words clearly, pursed her lips and nodded.

"I encountered some difficulties. One of my brothers in the family suffered from eye disease and could not see properly." Fu Yao twitched the corner of her mouth and showed an indescribable bitter smile.

Fu Yao held the teapot and poured a cup of tea for the old man and sighed, "It's actually nothing. My brother just passed the exam this year and got a good job."

"Young Master's elder brother is really a genius." The old man said with emotion.

Fu Yao nodded, it was true. Even though she had a bad impression of Shen Zhaoxian, she only admired him for his scientific research.

"My brother is ill. Although I am urgent, there is nothing I can do."

"There is an elder in the family who practices medicine all year round. He knows some medical skills and lists some medicinal materials." At this point, Fu Yao sighed again, "Medicinal materials are expensive, how can they be so easy to find?"

The old man stroked the non-existent beard under his chin and nodded silently.

"Life is impermanent." It took a long time before the old man uttered this sigh, which was not really a sigh of relief.

A wry smile appeared on Fu Yao's face, and then she smiled calmly and said: "Actually, this is nothing. It will be over after gritting one's teeth. People will always have low periods. I allow myself to have low periods, but I will never allow them to last forever. Silence reigns in it.”

After saying that, Fu Yao stood up and left.

As I walked up, I felt an indescribable sourness in my heart. I didn't know it until I told it. Only when I told it did I realize how miserable I was.

She knew that she was already much better than most people. Can······

The next day, Fu Yao got up early and checked again and again whether Xu Ning's salute when entering the examination room was appropriate and whether there was anything that shouldn't be there.

Among the crowded crowd, Fu Yao waved to Xu Ning, who was walking towards the courtyard door step by step, and said with a smile: "Aning, come on!"

She watched Xu Ning walk into the courtyard step by step until the whole person completely disappeared in front of her, then she quickly turned around and went back.

The Yunkai Academy and Baichuan Academy exams took a total of twelve days. She could do many things during these twelve days, including looking for precious medicinal materials that could treat Shen Zhaoxian's eyes.

Back at the inn, Fu Yao picked up the prepared salute and pulled Shen Zhaoxian, who had been waiting for him, towards the door.

"There are steps ahead, be careful."

Fu Yao carefully caressed Shen Zhaoxian and walked forward. When he encountered the steps, he couldn't help but remind him and led him towards the wall.

Shen Zhaoxian frowned, feeling a little painful, "Miss Xu, actually you don't need to remind me of everything."

Seeing that Shen Zhaoxian still wanted to speak, Fu Yao said angrily: "What, you want to roll off the carriage again?" There was a bit of joking in her expression.

This person is no different from a child. He can't see anything but wants to do everything by himself and doesn't want to trouble her at all.

I don’t know how I came here before, but later I thought maybe it was because I was used to being alone in everything before.

Shen Zhaoxian was startled, and he didn't know what he was thinking of. He took more careful steps and moved cautiously towards the outside little by little.

Seeing this scene, Fu Yao followed closely behind Shen Zhaoxian with a suppressed smile. After getting on the carriage, Shen Zhaoxian secretly breathed a sigh of relief as he sat down smoothly on the carriage.

"Miss Xu, actually, you don't have to take my affairs too seriously." Shen Zhaoxian vaguely felt that Miss Xu had been too enthusiastic about him during this period.

I do everything myself and don't dare to relax at all for the sake of his eyes.

After hearing this, Fu Yao couldn't help but glared at the culprit and looked at what he was saying, "Mr. Shen, it's not that I want you to see the light again, but that you want to see the light again."

There was a dark color in Shen Zhaoxian's eyes.

The target of their trip was a small village not far from Zhonghe County. The prescription listed by Uncle He contained a root of century-old ginseng. There were rumors that someone had dug it out nearby.

Is it true that the news comes from rumors? Fu Yao doesn't know, but she doesn't want to give it a try.

Helping Shen Zhaoxian to get off the carriage, Fu Yao was suddenly greeted by a wave of strange, probing, and curious eyes. Fu Yao walked towards the village under the glare of everyone's gaze.

The letter said that the century-old ginseng root was dug out by a family named 'Wang'.

There is a huge jujube tree planted in the center of the yard, which is said to produce big and sweet jujubes every year. There are five people in the family, and the elderly woman is very greedy for money.

Fu Yao helped Shen Zhaoxian stand still at the door, took a closer look, and called softly: "Are you Mrs. Wang?" Her tone was a bit cautious and probing.

For the sake of convenience, country people often leave their courtyard doors open during the day.

Therefore, Fu Yao took in everything in the courtyard at a glance.

"you are?"

Madam Wang, who was sitting in the middle of the yard washing rice and washing vegetables, stood up straight and subconsciously wiped her wet palms when she saw the woman in front of her smiling and looking so glamorous.

"My surname is Xu, and this is my brother. A few days ago, I heard from a medicinal shop owner that Mrs. Wang's husband went to the mountain to collect herbs and dug up a century-old ginseng."

Madam Wang glanced thoughtfully at Shen Zhaoxian, whose eyes were dull, and she had an idea in her mind, "That's it, but I'm afraid, young master, you are here in the wrong place."

Fu Yao was stunned for a moment, recalling the meaning of Madam Wang's words, and wondered: "Madam Wang, why is this?

Madam Wang looked panicked and a little at a loss, "I did dig up a century-old ginseng in the mountain a few days ago, but when I got the prescription later, the doctor said it was not a century-old ginseng at all, but a slightly older root. It’s just medicinal materials.”

Hearing this, Fu Yao frowned. According to common sense, Madam Wang's husband would not be able to distinguish an extremely precious medicinal material such as ginseng.

"The doctor said that the ginseng is just near the water. It's just as long as you can imagine and is not a century-old ginseng."

Hearing this, Fu Yao was stunned for a moment. She didn't expect the reason to be so ridiculous.

Standing by the side, Shen Zhaoxian's slightly excited heart was like a basin of cold water being poured down on him. His whole body was freezing and he could no longer say a complete sentence.

Fu Yao quickly glanced sideways at Shen Zhaoxian who bowed his head and said nothing, and secretly screamed in his heart that it was bad.

If she had known the result would be like this, she would not have brought Shen Zhaoxian here, just to avoid him being sad.
