Courtyard House: My max-level medical skills specialize in treating beasts.

Chapter 32 Consecutive Draws

"Xu Damao, I'm not going to bring up personal grudges today, I'll just say something fair. You were caught cheating on me, that's true, right? As a member of the compound, I'm ashamed for you! Everyone, do you think you should be paraded through the streets?" He Yudong stood in the middle of the courtyard, speaking with righteous indignation.

"They must be paraded through the streets! They absolutely must be paraded through the streets!"

"Yes, we can't let this guy off easily!"

The people in the courtyard joined in the commotion, their spittle nearly drowning Xu Damao.

He panicked on the spot and turned to Lou Xiao'e, pleading, "Xiao'e, say something! For the sake of our five years of marriage, please forgive me this time. I promise I'll never do it again and will live a good life with you from now on!"

Upon hearing this, Qin Jingru's legs went weak. Her body had already been taken by Xu Damao, and now he wanted to go back on his word. How could she live with herself? She knelt on the ground with a thud, crying, "Brother Damao, didn't you say you'd divorce Lou Xiao'e and marry me? How can you go back on your word?"

These words were like a thunderclap, and the courtyard instantly erupted in chaos.

"Qin Jingru, what nonsense are you spouting!" Xu Damao immediately retorted, "When did I say that? It was your own choice! Don't forget, I gave you twenty yuan for pocket money yesterday!"

Well, so he calls prostitution fees "pocket money" and prostitution "money-for-sex transactions." His skin is so thick it could plaster a wall.

Qin Jingru was filled with despair on the spot, tears streaming down her face: "Xu Damao, how could you do this to me..." She had lost her most precious virginity, and now the whole courtyard knew about it. How could she ever get married in the future?

"Xiao'e, I was wrong, please give me a chance!" Xu Damao was still begging for mercy.

"Xu Damao, you're a bastard! I want a divorce!" Lou Xiao'e cried, "and I want to parade you through the streets!"

"Yes! We can't let this beast get away!" the people in the courtyard shouted.

Xu Damao wrung his hands anxiously, saying, "Xiao'e, please, for the sake of our past as husband and wife..."

He had long harbored deep hatred for He Yudong. If it weren't for this guy stirring things up, things wouldn't have escalated to this point.

Lou Xiao'e remembered what He Yudong had said before: that she was healthy, and that Xu Damao was the one who was infertile. Since Xu Damao was such a scoundrel, her determination to divorce him was even stronger: "I can't live with you anymore. I want a divorce now, immediately!"

"Fine, divorce, but can we not parade you through the streets?" Xu Damao began to bargain.

"Xiao'e, let's skip the parading. Let Xu Damao apologize to you," said Uncle Liu Haizhong, trying to smooth things over.

"Second Uncle, it's easy for you to talk when you're not in the situation," He Yudong sneered. "Did Xu Damao bribe you behind his back to speak on his behalf?"

"He Yudong, don't talk nonsense!" Liu Haizhong's face darkened. "If this gets out, it will damage the reputation of the compound!"

"Hmph, do you think you can hide something like this? The neighborhood committee will find out soon enough!" He Yudong retorted without hesitation.

"You... He Yudong, do you have any manners? Don't you know how to respect the elderly and care for the young?" Liu Haizhong immediately started acting like an old man.

"Let's stick to the facts. Don't give me that crap. I'm not buying it." He Yudong remained unmoved.

"Alright, that's enough." Lou Xiao'e wiped away her tears. "Xu Damao, for the sake of our past as husband and wife, let's part amicably. From now on, you go your way and I'll go mine. We can forget about being paraded through the streets, but we must get a divorce."

She's still soft-hearted; after all, they've been married for five years, so getting a divorce is already a good thing.

"Okay, let's get the paperwork done right now!" Xu Damao immediately stood up, secretly overjoyed. Lou Xiao'e couldn't have a son, and he had long wanted to find another woman to have one. This was a perfect opportunity to get rid of her.

"Since the couple has already discussed it, everyone should disperse," said an old man named Yi Zhonghai, trying to smooth things over.

"Tch." He Yudong rolled his eyes at him, turned around and left. He had originally wanted to see Xu Damao paraded through the streets, but Lou Xiao'e was too kind. However, this time the Qin Jingru sisters' reputations were definitely ruined.

Qin Jingru cried and tugged at her sister Qin Huairu's sleeve: "Sister, what am I going to do now?"

"Hmph, you have the nerve to say that! Who told you to get involved with that bastard Xu Damao? Now you've lost your chastity, and you can only wait for him to get a divorce before he marries you." Qin Huairu's words were barbed and sarcastic.

"Sister, what if Xu Damao doesn't marry me? How am I supposed to get married in the future?" Qin Jingru's tears fell down her cheeks.

"What can I do? He brought it on himself!" Qin Huairu rolled her eyes, her words scathing.

"Sister, why don't you talk to Sha Zhu? Isn't he a bachelor? He'll definitely be willing. After I marry him, I'll manage his money, and I'll help you out." Qin Jingru said with a calculating look on her face.

Even Qin Huairu, who was thick-skinned, was so shocked by these words that she couldn't close her mouth for a long time. Was her sister trying to find Sha Zhu to be her fall guy? Regardless of whether Sha Zhu would agree or not, she herself would be the first to object. She had long felt that Sha Zhu should be hers.

"Don't even think about it. The whole hospital knows about this. Sha Zhu is smart now, not the idiot he used to be," Qin Huai said coldly. "Go back to the countryside tomorrow. Nobody knows there. Find an honest man and settle down."

"I'm not going back to the countryside! Sister, you have to help me think of a way!" Qin Jingru stamped her foot anxiously.

[Ding! You have successfully facilitated the divorce between Xu Damao and Lou Xiao'e. You are rewarded with 200 merit points.]

As He Yudong stepped into the factory clinic, a system notification popped up in his mind. He had indirectly facilitated this divorce; the merit had come easily. He was delighted and opened the panel...

Host: He Yudong

Bloodline: Pure Yanhuang bloodline

Age: 20

Physical fitness: 40 (average 10 for the average person)

Mental state: 28 (average 10 for normal people)

Skills: Master-level Traditional Chinese Medicine (55%), Master-level Western Medicine (55%), Master-level Internal Martial Arts (55%), Advanced Military Skills, Proficient in Music, Chess, Calligraphy, and Painting, Proficient in the Butcher's Skill

Merit Points: 968

968 points! Another ten-pull! He Yudong almost burst out laughing.

"Brother He, what are you laughing at?" Ding Qiunan's voice brought him back to his senses. The girl in front of him was blinking at him.

"It's nothing, I'm just in a good mood seeing you," He Yudong said with a frank smile.

"Brother He, you're so cheeky, I'm ignoring you." Ding Qiunan blushed and turned to enter the infirmary.

He Yudong followed him in, put his things away, and then, under the pretext of going to the restroom, slipped into a corner and entered the miniature world. The fruits in the Hundred Fruit Garden were ripe, and several large vats of monkey wine had been brewed. He scooped out a peck; the wine was golden in color, its aroma carrying the sweet fragrance of various fruits. It was brewed with spiritual spring water, and its taste was like a baptism, relaxing his entire body. Calling it a divine brew would not be an exaggeration; regular consumption could cure diseases, prolong life, and nourish the body.

In the courtyard, after her divorce, Lou Xiao'e first went back to her parents' home to pack her belongings, then took her dowry and returned to her grandmother's house. She didn't want her parents to know about the divorce immediately, but her grandmother treated her kindly and let her stay first, which warmed Lou Xiao'e's heart.

The old lady, however, was already making plans. She had just heard that Sha Zhu and Teacher Ran had broken up. Wouldn't it be perfect to match Lou Xiao'e and Sha Zhu together? The more she thought about it, the more she felt that the two were a good match.

"Grandma, what are you laughing at?" Lou Xiao'e was in a low mood, and she was displeased to see the old lady suddenly laughing.

"Xiao'e, divorce might not be a bad thing for you. Xu Damao is not good enough for you at all." The old lady's words were loaded with meaning, and her smile deepened.

"While you're still young, you can find another one later and have a big, healthy son to make Xu Damao jealous," the old lady advised, patting Lou Xiao'e's hand.

Lou Xiao'e looked up: "Grandma, do you think I can still have children?"

"Of course it's true! Our Xiao'e is beautiful and has a great figure, she can definitely have children! The one who can't have children is that Xu Damao, he's getting his comeuppance for all the bad things he's done." The old lady said with absolute certainty.

"Are you so sure? Then isn't that why the old lady can't have children?" Lou Xiao'e retorted.

"You're different from her! That old lady had gynecological problems when she was young, but you don't. I asked Yudong about this a long time ago, and you're perfectly healthy; you can definitely have children. Yudong's medical skills are amazing. Look at me, I'm hard of hearing now, and I'm so strong I can run ten miles without needing a cane!"

"That's right, you've had less gray hair lately, and you look more than ten years younger! Is He Yudong really that amazing?" Lou Xiao'e wondered to herself.

But she still wanted to confirm with He Yudong again. In case she really could have children, she could marry again and have a few more to take with her to piss off Xu Damao. That would be so satisfying!

Xu Damao, having finished his stroll outside, returned home and suddenly slapped his thigh: Lou Xiao'e had hidden a tightly locked chest when she married into the family, and she kept the key herself. He had been eyeing the valuables inside. But after searching for a long time, the chest was gone, and even Lou Xiao'e's clothes and belongings had vanished!

"That damn woman, there's definitely something good in that box! We can't let this go, we have to get it back!" Xu Damao never suffered a loss, and immediately started thinking about how to get his revenge. "You just wait, when I make you cry for your parents, you're no longer Xu!"

As they were cursing, Qin Jingru came out of Qin Huairu's house and went straight to Xu Damao's house. She had been hiding in Qin Huairu's house and dared not go out, afraid of being pointed at and talked about. When she saw Xu Damao return, she quickly went to him.

Seeing the door open, Qin Jingru cautiously walked in. Seeing that only Xu Damao was there, she immediately said, "Brother Damao, you and Lou Xiao'e are divorced! Let's go get our marriage certificate right away!"

Xu Damao glanced at her sideways: "Get lost, I'm already annoyed, don't make things worse!"

"Brother Da Mao, you said you would marry me before, you wouldn't go back on your word, would you?" Qin Jingru's tears fell down her cheeks.

Looking at her plump and rounded appearance, Xu Damao's anger subsided a bit: "Alright, stop crying. I didn't say I wouldn't marry you. After making such a fuss today, if we go to get the marriage certificate now, what will people say about us behind our backs?"

"I know, so when are we going?" Qin Jingru asked excitedly.

"Let's talk about it in a few days, what's the rush?" Xu Damao said impatiently. He was preoccupied with finding Lou Xiao'e's suitcase. Qin Jingru was just a plaything. Anyway, he was divorced. With his conditions, he could find any kind of girl. There was no need to hang himself on a village girl.

"I'm afraid you won't want me..." Qin Jingru sobbed, feeling wronged.

"Silly girl, how could I not want you?" Xu Damao hugged her tightly and coaxed her with sweet words, and Qin Jingru finally stopped crying and smiled.

At this moment, He Yudong was still shouting in the small world, "System, activate ten consecutive draws!"

"Ding, 10-pull activated."

A large spinning wheel popped up on the system interface, spinning so fast it was dizzying.

"Ding! Congratulations, host, you have drawn three unlucky cards."

"Unlucky Card?" He Yudong wondered, "There's such a thing?" He quickly checked: [Unlucky Card: Designates one person within ten meters to use it. The target will experience bad luck for three minutes after ten minutes.]

He chuckled to himself: This thing kills without shedding blood! Just shoot anyone you don't like. Don't underestimate three minutes; sometimes, three unlucky seconds can be enough to get you into serious trouble!

"Ding! Congratulations, host, you have won a ton of premium Wagyu beef."

The second reward didn't bother He Yudong much, but it was still pretty good. The premium Wagyu beef was top-quality, with an unparalleled taste. Everything produced by the system was guaranteed to be excellent; the previous ton of premium pork belly was already incredibly fragrant, and this Wagyu beef steak paired with monkey wine sounded wonderful.

"Ding! Congratulations, host, you have drawn the inheritance manual of the divine spearman Li Shuwen."

The third reward surprised him. He already had Sun Lutang's skills, and now there was Li Shuwen? Li Shuwen, a top martial arts master recognized by the Republic of China, whose unparalleled fist technique was on par with Sun Lutang. Although his martial arts skills were sufficient, it was never a bad thing to have more trump cards up his sleeve.

"Ding! Congratulations, host, you have won a three-courtyard house [No. 8 Courtyard near the Imperial City, with complete paperwork and exquisite modern Chinese-style decoration]."

The fourth reward made He Yudong nod in approval. Courtyard houses near the capital would be impossible to buy even with money in the future, and most would be occupied by residents. The one the system gave him was similar to the two-courtyard house near the clinic, uninhabited, and even included modern amenities like a washing machine and flush toilet. He'd go check out his new home this weekend when he had time.

He suddenly had a bunch of keys, along with house and land deeds, which he casually stuffed into the storage room of the small world.

"Ding! Congratulations, host, you have drawn a ranch."

The fifth lottery draw concluded, and the small world gained an empty pasture with a few unique houses built, but there were no cattle or sheep. I'll have to check the market or the system shop to find some to raise.

Now the little world is becoming more and more presentable: a spiritual spring pool, a herb garden, a fruit orchard, plus a ranch, and most importantly, it doesn't even produce garbage.

"Ding! Congratulations, host, you have obtained a spirit dog. Breed options include [German Shepherd, Labrador Retriever, Husky, Mixed Breed, etc.]"

The sixth draw was surprisingly a dog; He Yudong could choose the breed and color. He immediately locked onto a German Shepherd and ordered a pure white one. No sooner had he spoken than a chubby little puppy appeared before him, looking as if it had only been born a short time.

"Woof woof woof!" The puppy barked at him a few times and came over to rub against his feet affectionately.

He Yudong picked it up and was instantly charmed; it was just too cute!

"From now on, we'll call you Xiaobai. You can stay in our little world for now, and we'll take you out later."

The puppy seemed to understand and licked his hand. He Yudong put it down, and the puppy ran around happily everywhere.

"Ding! Congratulations, host, you have drawn three unlucky cards."

The seventh draw was another unlucky card. This is the sixth one already. I need to find a chance to test its effect.

"Ding! Congratulations, host, you have won 20000 RMB in cash."

"Ding! Congratulations, host, you have won a super alloy Tang sword [cuts iron like mud, indestructible]."

He Yudong looked at the Tang sword in his hand, drew it out for a look, and saw that the blade gleamed with a cold light and was frighteningly sharp. With a casual swing, it seemed as if the air was being cut open. Although he couldn't use it and didn't cut anyone, it was quite fun to keep it as a collectible.

The lottery was being drawn for the last time, and the wheel started spinning.

"Ding! Congratulations, host, you have won a set of Nine Dragons Divine Needles [the legendary acupuncture of the divine physician Huangfu Mi, which can increase the treatment effect by 100%]."

He Yudong's eyes lit up. A set of acupuncture needles landed in his palm. He opened it and saw that there were twenty-seven gold needles and fifty-four silver needles, with coiled dragons carved on the handles, totaling eighty-one needles. Holding them in his hand, the needles seemed to come alive, and an absolute sense of confidence surged up within him.

That 100% increase alone is incredible; it's definitely the most valuable item in a ten-pull!

(900 merit points consumed, now only 68 points remaining. The Unlucky Card is an abstract item, so it's displayed on the panel; the house, Tang sword, puppy, and cash are all in the small world, not listed here.)

He Yudong was in a great mood. He picked some fruit from the herb garden and left the small world. Seeing that no one was around, he headed towards the infirmary.

He handed the fruit to Ding Qiunan and said with a smile, "I brought it for you."

"Brother He, how come you still have fruit? And so much of it?" Ding Qiunan took it, her eyes full of doubt. It's so hard to buy fruit in the dead of winter.

"I have a way," He Yudong teased her. "Eat more, it'll be good for your skin."

"Mmm." Ding Qiunan picked up a grape and held it to his lips. "Brother He, you should have some too."

She wondered if it was just her imagination, but these grapes seemed sweeter than any she had ever eaten before. But she didn't care; as long as they were given to her by He Yudong, her heart felt warm.

Only one or two workers came to see the doctor in the morning, so the clinic was quite quiet. Around noon, Cui Dake rushed in with a long face.

"Cui Dake, what brings you here again?" He Yudong glanced at him, his tone turning cold.

Cui Dake's body and face were covered in scratches. The itching powder could last for three days, and today was the second day, when he was most itchy. He really couldn't stand it anymore.

"Dr. He, Director He, please save me! My whole body is like this, it's so itchy!" he pleaded in a panic.

He had long suspected that he had brought this upon himself. After the head of the security department, Wang, and a few others offended He Yudong last night, they started to feel itchy when they got back. This matter must be related to He Yudong.

"This is not a work-related injury, so the clinic doesn't provide free treatment," He Yudong said.

"I know! Just tell me how much it costs, and I'll pay! Treat me right away!" Cui Dake said anxiously.
