General, your wife has gone to deliver another calf for your horse.

Chapter 58 As long as you become my disciple

Jiang Nuanzhi carefully put it away for him.

I'm thinking it's time to put Li Junping's studies on the agenda. If he never goes to school, how will he ever become an official?

After cleaning up such a large area, I also cleaned up the kitchen.

Find some boards and build a shelf to store the pots, pans, and utensils.

The tables, chairs, and benches were cleaned spotlessly, and even the door panels were nailed shut securely by Jiang Nuanzhi. Only then was she satisfied.

Except for Li Rong, who was still dirty, everyone else was presentable.

Without saying a word, Jiang Nuanzhi carried a basin of hot water and walked towards Li Rong.

Li Rong had been on edge the whole time, and just as he was drifting off to sleep, he vaguely felt a chill beneath him.

He suddenly opened his eyes and saw a pair of soft, plump white hands in front of him, untying the sash on his chest.
In an instant, his face turned bright red, and even his ears turned bright red, making him look like a boiled shrimp.

Jiang Nuanzhi glanced at his expression and raised an eyebrow: "I'm a doctor, why are you so shy?"

Come to think of it, this man used to have a fiancée, so isn't it a bit much for him to act all innocent now?
As soon as he finished speaking, Li Rong felt a chill beneath him.

The next second, Jiang Nuanzhi's devilish claws reached out towards him.
Li Rong's pupils contracted, he bit his lip, and finally closed his eyes.

The next day, Jiang Nuanzhi rode Xiao Li up the mountain.

After having breakfast in the morning, she decided to go up the mountain to chop firewood.

She didn't plan to go to town today. She had earned more than ten taels of silver yesterday, so she wasn't too short of money.

Furthermore, there's still no news of Xinbo. Even if he's earned the money, he probably won't have anywhere to look for him.

Yesterday's events taught her that if she wanted to get rich, she should start with medicinal herbs.

Instant noodles are indeed a marketable product, and the profit margin can even be doubled.

I roughly calculated that the cost of making one pack of instant noodles is about five to six coins. One pack is priced at eighteen coins, and you get one free if you buy two packs, so the price is twelve coins.

In other words, she could earn six coins for each pack of instant noodles. One hundred packs would be six hundred coins, and two hundred packs would be one and a half taels of silver. If she focused on making instant noodles at home, producing two to three hundred packs a day would be no problem. The income would be quite considerable.

However, after calculating the profits from wound medicine, she realized that the money made from instant noodles was really insignificant.

She had only spent five or six hundred coins on wound medicine before, and later bought three or four catties of pork, with the total cost being no more than one or two taels of silver. Yet, she produced a lot of wound medicine.

It contained nine small porcelain bottles, along with a small half-jar of wound medicine.

She earned more than thirteen taels of silver by filling just nine bottles.

Everyone knows which businesses to focus on these days.

He was thinking of going up the mountain to see if there were any medicinal herbs he could collect, and that he wanted to make several kinds of ointments to sell.

She strolled leisurely through the mountains, not in a hurry to chop firewood, but instead continued towards the traps she had set earlier.

He had only intended to take a casual look. Unexpectedly, two pieces of gold lay hidden inside his trap. Jiang Nuanzhi's eyes lit up, and she immediately jumped in.

The next second, a net came over and completely covered Jiang Nuanzhi.

"Hmph, I've found you."

"who are you?"

A quarter of an hour ago.

The Magpie Doctor brought gold into the forest and headed straight for the trap.

"Divine Doctor, I'm begging you! Please take a look at my general! He was a young and brilliant general, but now he can't lift a finger, he can't carry anything, and he even has trouble speaking. You can only imagine how much suffering he must be going through. I'm afraid only you in this world can save my general. Please have mercy on him. Lu Zhong kowtows to you here."

The Divine Physician seemed not to hear, and threw the silver directly into the trap. Then, after observing his surroundings again, he tossed the net into a tree. "Divine Physician, for the sake of my general's years of service to the country, please take a look!"

The Divine Physician Que said, "The Li family army is a rebel army. What face does he have?"

With red eyes, Lu Zhong looked at the person in front of him, clenching his fists, and said, "The Li family army has never been a rebel army!"

The divine physician ignored him completely, so he gritted his teeth and said, "I have money. If you cure the general, I promise to give you a hundred taels of silver, how about that?"

The magpie doctor didn't even raise an eyebrow, continuing to set his trap: "I advise you to go home as soon as possible. Don't mention a hundred taels, even a thousand taels or ten thousand taels, I won't go. I will never treat any of the injuries or illnesses of the man surnamed Li in my entire life. Please go back."

Lu Zhong's eyes were red-rimmed. Yesterday, he searched for that demoness but failed. Instead, he unexpectedly learned of the news of the Magpie Physician. What did killing that demoness matter? He could do it anytime! But the Magpie Physician was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.

Therefore, he has been staying in front of Doctor Magpie since yesterday.

Upon hearing these words, his heart skipped a beat, and the next second he knelt down with a thud.

"Divine doctor, I beg you. Could you please take a look at our general? Just one look!"
We are now in the desolate wilderness. Some things will not reach the Emperor's ears. If you don't speak up and I don't speak up, who will know? Saving a life is more meritorious than building a seven-story pagoda!

"Shut up!" The old man's face was very unpleasant. He said impatiently, "Keep your voice down, or you'll scare my prey. You'll be sorry."

Immediately afterwards, the two watched as Jiang Nuanzhi walked right into the trap, getting caught red-handed by the net that had been set up long ago.

Jiang Nuanzhi frowned as she looked at the two faces in front of her, which were somewhat familiar yet completely unfamiliar.

The air fell into an eerie silence for a moment.

The Divine Physician looked at her with a smile and said, "When I saw you from afar, I thought you were an older sister, but I didn't expect you to be so young. Hello, young friend. I am a divine physician. I see that you have extraordinary bones and would like to take you as my apprentice. What do you say?"

After saying that, he proudly raised his head.

Jiang Nuanzhi squinted at the two people. The next second, she cut the rope with her knife and climbed out of the trap in a few swift movements. On the way, she also put the two pieces of gold she had picked up in the trap into her pocket.

This series of actions left the two people outside staring in disbelief.

Jiang Nuanzhi looked at the two people standing together and said, "I have no interest in being someone's apprentice. You should find someone else."

He was about to leave when, a second later, the little old man who was afraid of insects suddenly ran over and blocked his way.

"Hey, girl. Do you know who I am?"

Jiang Nuanzhi smiled and curled her lips: "I know!"

Upon hearing this, the old man said smugly, "Good to know. If you become my disciple in the future..."

Jiang Nuanzhi: "I know you. You are especially afraid of insects. You will faint as soon as you see them."

Jiang Nuanzhi felt that she was probably going to be extorted today.

The old man's eyes widened immediately: "What bugs? What coma? Don't talk nonsense."

Jiang Nuanzhi: "Oh, okay, goodbye, old man, you're afraid of bugs."

"You!" The old man gritted his teeth, then suddenly clapped his hands and said, "I really like your personality. Hey, if you knew who I am, you would be very surprised. If you miss this opportunity, you'll regret it later. I'm giving you this chance again. If you don't agree today, I won't allow you to come and worship me again!"

Jiang Nuanzhi: "Oh, I see."

After saying that, he turned and left.

The old man panicked, but managed to restrain himself from immediately stopping her. Seeing that Jiang Nuanzhi turned and left without a second thought, he frantically chased after her.

"Hey, you little brat, aren't you really going to reconsider?"

Lu Zhong was so shocked by what he saw that his jaw almost dropped.

He had met this woman before; she was just a thrifty, rural woman. Nothing special about her.

But judging from the appearance of this magpie doctor, could this person possess some extraordinary talent?
