Quick Transmigration: The Supporting Character Just Wants to Die a Natural Death

Chapter 118 Cannon Fodder Who Died Young on the Road to Escape Famine 7

Thirty-two.

The woman looked Yao Feiran up and down as if inspecting merchandise, then clapped her hands and laughed, "Miss Yao, you have some good news waiting for you."

"What good news?"

"Do you know the Luo family who came to the city before? The head of the Luo family just turned forty this year. His wife died early, and now he wants to remarry. He happens to have taken a liking to you, young lady, because you are capable. In this world, it is always inconvenient for a woman to raise a child alone, so he sent me, Matchmaker Wang, to act as a matchmaker."

Yao Feiran had a strange expression. She had escaped the fate of becoming the eldest son of the Luo family's second wife in this lifetime, but now it was her turn. She had been chosen by the young master of the Luo family's father, who had died young.

The Luo family is inherently selfish. Master Luo took a liking to her, probably because there was something to gain from it. Perhaps it was her medical skills? Yes, Master Luo is afraid of death, and ironically, he has a terminal illness.

"No need, Auntie, I don't want to get married."

Matchmaker Wang's face stiffened. She had heard that the other party was just a village woman with a daughter. What was supposed to be a sure thing turned out to be a direct rejection.

"The Luo family is wealthy, so you won't have to worry about food and drink if you marry into the family. But what are your concerns?"

Yao Feiran thought to herself: If it weren't for Wang Yifeng's kindness, those merchants who only have money but no power would have been skinned alive. Later, when the Third Prince Youwang entered the city, it was Zhou Miao who saw through Youwang's character and took the initiative to persuade him to donate most of his wealth, thus saving himself.

"I have enough to eat and drink now, why should I marry into the Luo family? I won't be as carefree then."

The matchmaker looked at her as if she were crazy, probably because she had never heard a woman speak like that before, and she believed that a woman could only depend on her husband's family.

"Miss Yao is joking. You work so hard, how can it compare to being the Madam of the Luo family, when you had countless servants at your beck and call?"

"No matter how hard it is, it's still money I can control. If I go to the Luo family, I'm afraid I won't be in control of my own destiny. Why don't you ask Master Luo if he's willing to hand over the power of managing the household to me? Of course, that includes all his money. And I don't need a verbal promise, I need a written contract."

Matchmaker Wang's eyes widened, feeling that Yao Feiran was insatiable. She rolled her eyes and turned to leave, secretly resentful, determined to spread the word that no man in Xiangcheng would ever want her again, and then it would be too late for her to regret it.

If Yao Feiran knew what the matchmaker was thinking, she would be overjoyed.

At that moment, a man's voice rang out: "There are few girls in this world who think like this."

Yao Feiran already knew that someone was watching, but she didn't care. Now that the man spoke, she looked over.

He was a man with a refined appearance, but judging from his broad shoulders, he must have been someone who trained regularly.

Yao Feiran had memories of the original storyline and immediately recognized the person as Wang Yifeng, the leader of Xiangcheng.

"Is Marshal Wang looking for Doctor Qiu?"

Wang Yifeng was also surprised that Yao Feiran recognized him. He smiled in a low voice and said, "Thank you for your help, Dr. Yao. Uncle Qiu told me about you, saying that your medical skills are better than his."

"Marshal Wang is truly fortunate to have such a loyal and capable advisor as Doctor Qiu."

"Ha ha."

Wang Yifeng burst into laughter. Although the woman was praising Qiu Cheng, she was also implying that she herself was the "virtuous and capable person".

I have never seen such a shameless person, especially a woman.

He now believed what Qiu Cheng said; after all, only capable people could be so arrogant.

"Dr. Yao, please come in with me."

Yao Feiran was not afraid and followed Wang Yifeng into the clinic. At this time, Qiu Cheng was still reading a medical book. When he saw Wang Yifeng, he stood up and respectfully said, "Marshal Wang."

Wang Yifeng smiled enigmatically: "I saw this Doctor Yao outside; she was being arranged to marry by a matchmaker."

Qiu Cheng showed his disapproval. Yao Feiran was now working for Wang Yifeng and was under his protection, so she didn't need to get married. However, he couldn't stop a woman from wanting to find a home.

"Dr. Qiu, I have already refused. I do not want to get married."

Qiu Cheng nodded: "Here, you don't need to be afraid of anyone."

At this moment, Wang Yifeng suddenly said to Yao Feiran, "Dr. Yao, can you tell what's wrong with me?"

"I need to have my pulse checked."

Just as Qiu Cheng was about to stop him, Wang Yifeng stretched out his wrist. Yao Feiran placed her fingers on it and remained silent for a long time before saying, "Marshal Wang, you seem a bit weak. I can only say that you have at most ten years to live."

Unexpectedly, Wang Yifeng, a man of such robust stature, is actually quite weak inside, and his foundation has been damaged. Even with careful recuperation, he won't live for more than a few years.

Qiu Cheng, his hands trembling, exclaimed excitedly, "What nonsense are you spouting?"

Wang Yifeng waved his hand dismissively, and said rather happily, "Uncle Qiu, there's no need to be afraid. You said you could only extend my life by six years, but Doctor Huang said I can only live for ten years at most. If that's true, then I can still linger on for a few more years."

Qiu Cheng remained silent. He didn't want anyone to know about Wang Yifeng's physical condition, but Yao Feiran had noticed it immediately. If he could really extend his life by ten years, it would be a good thing for Wang Yifeng.

For a fleeting moment, he even considered killing him to silence him. After all, Wang Yifeng had no children, and if word got out that he was destined to die young, it would cause unrest, and the Wang family would be eyeing his position covetously.

Qiu Cheng asked in a deep voice, "Feiran, can you really cure her?"

"If you trust me, I can extend their life by ten years."

Wang Yifeng said loudly, "Alright, from now on, Doctor Yao will take care of my health."

He then handed the token for access to the Marshal's Mansion to Yao Feiran.

After Wang Yifeng left, Qiu Cheng instructed him, "Since Marshal Wang trusts you, I won't say anything more. In a few days, pack your luggage and go get whatever medicinal herbs you need. Marshal Wang is about to go to Yaozhou to fight, so you need to lead the apprentices to fulfill their duties as military doctors and take good care of Marshal Wang's health."

Even in this state, they still went to war; no wonder they died young.

Yao Feiran packed her luggage, entrusted Zhou Miao to the female doctor, and followed Wang Yifeng out of the city.

This battle was extremely crucial, resolving the predicament of scarce farmland and shortage of supplies in Xiangcheng. In the following years, the city was able to recuperate and grow stronger while hiding in the rear amidst the battles of various warlords.

He died young, and the prince reaped the rewards.

After joining Wang Yifeng's army, she did not stay by his side all the time, but instead took on the additional responsibility of overseeing the army's medical care and medicine allocation.

She was speechless. After all, this kind of rebel, who hadn't even been in Xiangcheng for a year, was entrusted with important responsibilities and held multiple positions. Wasn't he afraid of messing things up?

The apprentices who came were all from Changming Medical Hall. They were already used to Yao Feiran's command, and the whole team quickly got into the swing of things.

Not far away, centurion Zhao Hu had just come out of the military doctor's office. He looked somewhat dazed, recalling the military doctor named Yao Feiran who had handed him a packet of medicine. Yao Feiran's wrist was fair and looked very soft.

He grabbed a soldier: "Is this military doctor named Yao Feiran a woman?"

"Lord Zhao, she is a woman, but she has a good relationship with Doctor Qiu, so she was entrusted with an important task as soon as she arrived."

Zhao Hu revealed a lewd expression. He had been in the military camp for more than half a month and had finally seen a woman. He completely ignored the second half of what the soldier said.
