Divorced by her husband's family and rejected by her own! She defiantly turned her life around

Lu Yunzhou panicked completely. "How is this possible? How is this possible? The fortune teller clearly said that as long as she came of age and we got married and consummated our marriage, my illness would be completely cured. She's been gone for so long, why did I only get sick now?"

"Everything has a cause and effect and a process. Perhaps your fate is not good. You borrowed someone else's fate to extend, change, and turn your life around. She may be your companion in life. You are the fish, and she is the stream. You exist because of her."

"Yunzhou, I only brought this up because I saw that the doctors couldn't come up with a solution. I hoped that I could help them find a way to save you. I heard what the doctors said earlier. Some things are inexplicable. Perhaps it was all preordained."

Liu may be your life partner; your destiny depends on her to change it. She is both your antidote and your cure.

"How could this happen? How could this happen? Isn't this fortune teller trying to cheat me? Why didn't he explain clearly that she should never leave me for the rest of her life?"

"Young man, the fortune teller has already made it very clear that it is your evil intentions that have led to this terrible consequence."

That's settled then. You can stay until tomorrow, or leave today if you wish. I stand by my word: if I can't cure you, I'll only charge 20 taels for the consultation. Settle your bill and you can leave anytime.

"Dr. Cheng, is there really no other way? These superstitious and supernatural tales are not to be believed. Please think of another way; I will not shortchange you a single penny on the treatment."

"This has nothing to do with money. If I wanted money, I would have taken it long ago."

"In that case, we thank Dr. Cheng for his care over the past few days. We'll leave today. Brother, please go and settle the bill."

Lu Yunping, listening from the side, was completely confused. "Little brother, are we not going to treat him?"

"Yes, this can't be treated here, let's think of something else."

Lu Yunping paid the bill, packed his luggage, and the three of them left Fu'an Hall. "Little brother, where are we going now?"

"Let's go to the inn and stay there first."

The three of them headed towards the inn where they had stayed before. The innkeeper was pleased to see them. "Gentlemen, would you like to come in? Or would you prefer one of the two standard rooms?"

"right."

The waiter led them upstairs and settled them in. Just as they stepped back downstairs, a scream erupted from the room, startling the waiter so much he nearly fell off the stairs. Lu Yunping immediately called out to Doctor Yang, "Doctor Yang, Doctor Yang..."

Upon hearing the roar, Yang Tianlin immediately rushed over and knocked the man unconscious with a single needle. "Yunping, this can't go on like this. Why don't we go back? We've been out for almost half a month now."

"Let's talk about it when my little brother wakes up."

"Dr. Yang, what were you all talking about at the clinic just now? I overheard you mentioning my former sister-in-law, Liu. What does this have to do with Liu?"

"This can't be kept secret any longer; you'll find out sooner or later, so I'll just tell you."

Even the doctors in the prefectural city couldn't cure your brother's illness. Doctor Cheng even invited the old imperial physicians from the palace to treat your brother, but they were still helpless.

Just think about it, the imperial physicians, who treat the emperor and empress, must have incredibly high medical skills, yet even they were completely helpless.

There was no other way, so I told them about your brother's childhood, hoping it would help with his condition. Unexpectedly, just by saying that, they found the root of the illness. Your brother must have had a bad fate, and it was all thanks to Liu that he was able to change his destiny. If he leaves Liu, your brother's misfortune will befall him.

"If you want your brother to live, you can't do without Liu."

"According to you, my brother's abilities are not due to his own, but rather to Liu's. She's just riding on someone else's coattails."

"Yes, that's one way to understand it."

"If we remarry Liu, will my younger brother get better? Will everything go smoothly for him? Will he be able to rise through the ranks, become the top scholar, and become a high-ranking official?"

"That's roughly the idea."

"Thank goodness, thank goodness, Liu is not married yet. We can marry her back soon, which is perfect. My brother is better now, he has a husband, and his child has a father. It's so good that the whole family is reunited."

Doctor Yang gave him a disdainful look. Dream on. Why didn't you show him any mercy when he left back then?

"Dr. Yang, Liu used to like my brother so much. As long as we go back and mention this, she'll definitely agree. She's so rich, all she needs is a man. As long as my brother passes the imperial examination, she'll be the scholar's wife. She can be secretly happy."

Dr. Yang cursed inwardly, thinking, "What a pipe dream! They think everyone else is stupid and only their family is smart."

"Yunping, you keep an eye on things. I'm going back to my room to rest for a while. I'm exhausted these past few days."

"Okay, thank you for your hard work, Dr. Yang."

As soon as Doctor Yang left, Lu Yunping started daydreaming. Back then, Liu Shi wouldn't leave even if he was driven away. She was deeply in love with her younger brother. As long as her younger brother was willing to humble himself, Liu Shi would definitely agree. At that time, the family would be rich and powerful, and who would dare to look down on them? At that time, he would be the master of the Lu family. Hahahaha, Lu Yunping couldn't help but laugh out loud.

"Big brother, what are you laughing at? What's making you so happy?"

"Little brother, you're awake."

Dr. Yang just told me about your situation. If you ask me, since you can't leave Liu, then marry her again. Anyway, she's not married yet, and neither are you. She's so rich, you won't lose out by marrying her.

Although our mother doesn't get along with her, she'll definitely agree for your sake and for the sake of the money.

Big brother knows you don't like that woman, so what? For the sake of your life and money, little brother, just bear with it and marry her and keep her there. You can do whatever you want with her!

In order not to leave you, Lady Liu once said that she would give up her position as the principal wife, or that she would absolutely not interfere if you took a concubine.

"Little brother, what are you hesitating for? Let's hurry back and bring him back. It'll be better for everyone."

"Brother, please allow me to think about it some more."

"Sigh, I really don't understand you scholars. What are you thinking about all day long? With such a good thing right in front of you, what's there to think about?"

"You'd better think about it quickly. A day's expenses in this prefectural city can be quite high. Don't let your meager savings run out in two days, leaving you with no travel money for the exam."

"Understood, brother."

Lu Yunzhou put his hands behind his head, thinking about the future. Now that Liu was rich and beautiful, it wasn't impossible for him to bring her back.

Although she's living a better life now and looks better, she's still a woman. If she doesn't marry for the rest of her life, she'll be drowned in people's spittle.

He was now the most talented man in Lingshui County, and would become a Xiucai (a successful candidate in the imperial examinations) in a few months. How could she, a woman, manage without support? He would bring her back and make her a Xiucai's wife. He believed her family would be more than happy to do so.

Liu used to like me so much. If I just show a little bit of remorse, I believe she will definitely come back. She's the mistress of the house. As long as I coax her a little, there's nothing I can't handle. Besides, she's my former woman and I have a daughter with her.

Which woman can endure loneliness and not think about men at night? She may speak toughly, but inside she may be scratching like a cat, longing for a man to care for her.

Liu was no exception. Last time, when he tested her, although her temper had worsened after the divorce, she looked more attractive and approachable than before, unlike how she used to be repulsive.

How should I tell her when I go back this time?

The doctor said that his illness was draining his energy and spirit, and he didn't want to become a wrinkled old man, since he hadn't yet achieved his life's ambitions.

I can't let Dr. Yang knock me unconscious every time I get sick. How can I do anything if I do that? I have to take Dr. Yang with me wherever I go.
