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

"Ding, fusion begins..."

As He Yudong gave the order, a warm current instantly enveloped his entire body.

First, the bulletproof shirt was integrated. A warm current gathered on the surface of his skin, and then, with a flash of light, the seemingly ordinary yet subtly mysterious shirt was on his body. The fabric felt silky smooth and delicate, not only breathable but also subtly exuding a tough texture. He Yudong reached out and tugged at it, but it didn't budge. He felt relieved; now he had a trump card to save his life.

Immediately afterward, knowledge of ancient alchemy techniques flooded his mind like a tidal wave. The previously obscure and difficult alchemy formulas, the control of heat, and the proportions of medicinal herbs now seemed like his most treasured skills honed over decades, etched into his very being. At the same time, an ancient and heavy Shennong alchemy cauldron, engraved with runes, appeared out of thin air in the system space, ready for him to use at any time.

The formulas for the Longevity Pill and the Youthful Appearance Pill transformed into golden light and merged into the retina. Not only were the contents of the formulas clearly visible, but also the pictures of the medicinal materials and their properties appeared one by one.

He Yudong was secretly delighted. The medicinal herbs in the herb garden had finally come in handy, making it an excellent gift for his elders and future daughter-in-law.

As for the ten tons of high-quality flour, a pair of high-quality lambs, and a pair of high-quality dairy cows, they were automatically collected into the ranch of the small world by the system.

Several flour sacks piled up like mountains suddenly appeared on the once empty grassland, and the cattle and sheep seemed to feel the nourishment of the spiritual spring water, running and grazing happily on the grassland, looking much more spiritual than ordinary livestock.

Finally, and most importantly, is gene optimization.

"Buzz—"

He Yudong felt a slight tremor deep within his body, as if every cell was being disassembled, reassembled, and optimized.

This feeling is not painful, but rather brings a tingling and comfortable sensation, as if all the impurities in the body have been expelled, and the body's functions have once again taken a leap forward.

"Ding, congratulations host, all items have been fused! Gene optimization is complete, the host's current physique has reached the peak of humanity, and the talents of future generations will be guaranteed to the greatest extent."

He Yudong clenched his fist, feeling the surging power within him, and couldn't help but smile.

This ten-pull was an absolute steal! I got everything: life-saving items, money-making items, health-preserving items, and even a head start for my future kids.

He glanced at the sleeping Ding Qiunan, his gaze softening. With these formulas for preserving youth and prolonging life, he could accompany her further, growing old together (or perhaps not growing old at all).

With a thought, he withdrew his consciousness from the system, looked at the moonlight outside the window, his heart filled with anticipation for the future, and slowly closed his eyes. Tomorrow will be another day full of hope.

Immediately, He Yudong's mind received more information, and his small world gained many more things. Cattle and sheep automatically went to the pasture to graze, and alchemy techniques and pill formulas had been integrated into his memory.

Bulletproof shirts, cell phones, and even a cauldron appeared in the miniature world, while ten tons of high-quality flour automatically entered the warehouse.

The warehouse currently contains flour, fragrant rice, high-quality snowflake beef, high-quality pork belly, and high-quality mutton. There are ten tons of flour and fragrant rice, and one ton of meat. Although some has been eaten, there is still a lot left.

The next morning, Xu Damao took Qin Jingru to the marriage registration office to register their marriage.

Qin Jingru looked at the marriage certificate in her hand and could hardly believe it. She hadn't expected to get the marriage certificate with Xu Damao so easily.

"Hey, Damao, Damao, wait for me!" Seeing Xu Damao come out first, Qin Jingru quickly caught up and took his arm.

"Are you satisfied now? Are you satisfied?" Xu Damao said.

"Well, I haven't even asked you why you didn't want me yet," Qin Jingru said with a smile.

"Tsk, what sins did I, Xu Damao, commit in my past life to marry a country bumpkin like you?" Xu Damao said with dissatisfaction.

Now that we know he is actually fertile, if He Yudong hadn't interfered, he would have married nurse Yang Xiaohong long ago, who is much better than Qin Jingru, that country bumpkin.

But there's nothing he can do; after all, she's pregnant with his child. What can he do?

Qin Jingru followed with a shameless grin, grabbed Xu Damao's hand, and said, "Damao, it's okay. I won't be angry if you scold me. Besides, I know that you'll like me soon enough."

"Let me tell you, now that we're married, there's something you have to listen to: stay far away from Qin Huairu, understand?" Xu Damao said to Qin Jingru with a serious expression.

"Let me tell you, now that we're married, there's something you have to listen to: stay far away from Qin Huairu, understand?" Xu Damao said to Qin Jingru with a serious expression.

"Um..." Qin Jingru was immediately at a loss. It was Qin Huairu's idea that she was able to marry Xu Damao.

"But...but she's my relative."

"That won't do either," Xu Damao said angrily.

"No problem, no problem." Qin Jingru, afraid that Xu Damao would be angry, quickly said, "If you say we shouldn't talk to her, then we should. I'll listen to you. Hey, what are you going to do later? Shall we go buy a lot of wedding candy and then go back to our compound to have a grand wedding? I can even wear a red dress and put on rosy cheeks..."

"Shut up," Xu Damao shouted as Qin Jingru was speaking enthusiastically.

"Why should they be happy about my wedding? Why? No way!" Xu Damao said.

"Huh? You haven't reacted for a while?" Xu Damao then remembered that Qin Jingru had stopped vomiting.

Upon hearing Xu Damao's words, Qin Jingru immediately began to vomit.

"Hey, I'm not saying you're not reacting, are you serious or not? You're not lying to me, are you?"

"Who told you to bring this up?" Qin Jingru said, vomiting as she spoke.

Seeing that he didn't think it was fake, Xu Damao quickly comforted her, "Alright, alright, it's my fault, Jingru. As long as you give me a child, we'll have plenty of good days ahead of us. Damn it, I don't believe it. They bully me. Sooner or later, I'll make them kneel down and call me grandpa."

He was naturally referring to the two brothers, He Yudong and Shazhu.

After finishing breakfast, He Yudong and Ding Qiunan took their things and boarded the bus with Ding Qiunan. Ding Qiunan's parents were returned overseas Chinese, and her father was a returned overseas medical doctor. They now lived in a cadre dormitory.

I know my daughter is on holiday, but she hasn't come back yet, and I'm getting a little anxious.

They were quite surprised to see their daughter return with a handsome young man, especially since the young man was carrying a lot of things.

"Mom and Dad, I'm home!" Ding Qiunan said happily when she saw her parents.

"Okay, then go back and tell your family first. I'll change my clothes and come over," He Yudong said to Haitang.

"Okay, Brother Yudong, I'll head back now. I'll wait for you at home." Yu Haitang said with a happy expression. Although the two big fish she was carrying were heavy, she was secretly delighted. It wasn't just about the two fish; it meant that Brother Yudong cared about her and was willing to spend more time with her.

Watching Yu Haitang's joyful departure, He Yudong shook his head and smiled. The girls in this courtyard house are all quite interesting.

Back inside, He Yushui hadn't returned yet; she'd probably gone to play with her classmates.

He Yudong quickly tidied up and put the electric bicycle back into the small world. After all, it was too conspicuous, and although it was fast, it was better to keep a low profile in the current road conditions. He picked up the bucket of fish and walked out of the courtyard gate.

On their way to Yu Haitang's house, the two walked side by side. Although Yu Haitang was carrying heavy things, she kept talking, chattering about interesting things that happened on the radio. He Yudong occasionally chimed in with a few words, and the atmosphere was quite harmonious.

When they arrived at Yu Haitang's house, Yu's mother was sewing shoe soles inside. When she saw Yu Haitang leading He Yudong in, carrying two such large fish, she couldn't stop smiling.

"Oh my, Yu Dong is here! Come in and sit down! Why are you spending money on me again? We haven't even finished the noodles you sent last time." Mother Yu greeted him warmly. She liked this young, promising, handsome man who was also the head of the infirmary more and more.

"Auntie, it's almost Chinese New Year, this fish is fresh from my catch, I'm adding it to the family's dishes." He Yudong smiled as he put the fish into the basin.

"You're such a good cook, and you're so sensible too," said Mother Yu as she poured water, her eyes darting between He Yudong and her daughter, her mind racing with calculations.

After sitting at Yu Haitang's house for about half an hour and having a cup of tea, He Yudong got up to say goodbye. After all, things weren't officially settled yet, and it wouldn't be good to stay too long. Besides, he still had to go back to prepare for the New Year.

As we left Yu Haitang's house, it was already getting dark.

Back at the courtyard house, as soon as I entered the gate, I smelled a rich aroma of meat wafting from Uncle San's house, clearly indicating that the meat that had just been delivered was already being cooked.

"Yu Dong, you're back?" Uncle Yan Bugui was standing at the door pouring water. When he saw He Yu Dong, he immediately put on a smile and came over. "Thank you so much today. Supplies are scarce during the New Year. If it weren't for the meat and fish you brought, I don't know how my family would have made it through the New Year."

"Uncle, you're too kind. We're all family, please don't stand on ceremony with me," He Yudong replied with a smile.

"Okay, okay. By the way, I noticed your lights aren't on and Yushui hasn't come back yet. Why don't you come to Uncle San's house for dinner tonight? Aunt San just made braised pork." Although Yan Bugui was stingy, that was only towards outsiders. He was quite generous to He Yudong, the "sugar daddy" who had given him ten catties of meat and two big fish.

"Alright, then you should get some rest. Just let me know if you need anything." Yan Bugui didn't insist and happily carried the basin of water back into the house.

Back in his room, He Yudong closed the doors and windows, and his consciousness once again sank into the system.

Although everything went smoothly at Ding Qiunan's house today, he knew in his heart that these days, having status alone is not enough; one also needs sufficient strength and trump cards.

"System, view your personal attributes panel."

"Ding, Host: He Yudong"

"Position: Director of the Steel Rolling Mill's Medical Clinic"

Merit Points: 410 (900 spent today, no new points gained)

"Skills: Ancient Alchemy (Master), Medicine (Grandmaster), Martial Arts (Master)..."

"Items: Bulletproof shirt (already equipped), Shennong's Elixir Cauldron, 10 tons of high-quality flour, one pair each of high-quality dairy cows and lambs (currently being raised in the small world)..."

Looking at the attribute panel, He Yudong nodded in satisfaction. Although he had almost used up his merit points, the things he had gained were all genuine treasures. Especially the gene optimization, which was simply a divine skill.

"I wonder how the ranch in this little world is doing now?"

With a thought, He Yudong's consciousness entered the small world.

On the once-empty grassland, a pair of premium dairy cows and a pair of premium lambs were leisurely grazing on pasture irrigated by the spiritual spring water. These livestock seemed to have drunk the spiritual spring water, as they were a size larger than ordinary cattle and sheep, with shiny coats and bright, intelligent eyes.

"Looks like we won't lack meat and dairy products in the future."

He Yudong walked to the riverbank, took out the ten tons of high-quality flour from his system space, and piled it up in a dry place. This flour looked even finer and whiter than the best high-gluten flour on the market; it would be absolutely top-notch for making dumplings and steamed buns.

"The New Year is coming soon, so I can get some flour and give some to Yushui and the neighbors in the yard, and keep some for Qiunan's family."

After exiting the small world, He Yudong lay on the bed, staring at the ceiling, pondering his next plan.

Tomorrow is Lunar New Year's Eve.

This is my first Spring Festival since I traveled through time, so I have to make it lively.

"Oh, right, I also need to give some gifts to Deputy Factory Director Li and Factory Director Yang. Although I now have medical skills, I still need their help at the factory. And, after the New Year, shouldn't we consider getting to know that old fox Yi Zhonghai?"

He Yudong's lips curled into a playful smile.

In this era of scarcity, possessing a small world with almost unlimited resources and an incredible system, he is destined to become the trendsetter of this courtyard house, no, of this era.

Just then, He Yushui's voice came from outside the door: "Brother! Are you home? I'm back!"

He Yudong sat up, smiling as he went to open the door: "I'm here. Why are you so late today?"

"Besides, Yu Dong's medical skills are renowned. If we get on good terms with him, we can save money on hospital bills if we get sick and just go to him," the Third Uncle said with a smile, his shrewd little eyes gleaming with calculation.

The reason He Yudong would occasionally give the Third Uncle some treats was mainly because there were too many beasts in this courtyard, and he couldn't have everyone as an enemy. That little bit of meat was nothing to He Yudong, just a drop in the ocean, but to Yan Fugui's family, it was a significant amount. Why complicate things when a little meat could solve the problem? Having one more "friend" was always better than having one more enemy eyeing your food.

Just then, an old man named Yi Zhonghai arrived at Sha Zhu's door. Sha Zhu saw him, came out, and asked, "Uncle, what can I do for you?"

"Zhu Zi, it's almost Chinese New Year, and I was thinking that our two families, along with Huai Ru's family and their grandmother, could have a reunion dinner together. What do you think?" Yi Zhonghai said with a kind face, but he was secretly making his own plans.

"No, sir, why don't you live with Qin Huairu's family? The old lady can live with our family. We won't live with Qin Huairu and his family." Sha Zhu refused directly, leaving no room for negotiation in his tone.

Now, whenever he sees Yi Zhonghai and Qin Huairu, he recalls what the two said in the cellar that night, and a wave of unease washes over him. He must stay far away from these two families to avoid being schemed against again.

"No, Zhu Zi, wouldn't it be more lively with more people? Huai Ru and her family have it tough too," Yi Zhonghai said again, trying to persuade Sha Zhu with moral blackmail.

"Uncle, please stop talking. This matter is off-limits." After saying this, Sha Zhu ignored Yi Zhonghai and turned to go back into the house.

This infuriated Yi Zhonghai, his face turning pale and then red. Just then, an older woman came out of the house, pointing at Yi Zhonghai and yelling, "Yi Zhonghai, you shameless bastard! You wanted to spend the New Year with Qin Huairu, but you were afraid of gossip, so you asked Zhuzi to come along. Don't think I don't know what you're up to!"

"Wife, you've misunderstood. I really didn't mean that." Yi Zhonghai was furious, but he could only suppress his anger and explain, while his eyes were dark as he stared at the old woman, signaling her to stop talking.
