The Spirited Daughter-in-law and the Mountain Man - Chapter 584

Chapter 584: 584 She’s Here (Seeking Monthly Tickets)

“Don’t throw up, I won’t give you any extra medicine.” She helplessly found a tree leaf, folded it into an oval shape, scooped up some river water and returned. “Open your mouth again.”

He complied.

She poured the water from the tree leaf into his mouth, and he finally swallowed the medicine.

Looking at his dozens of injuries and a few critical ones, Su Qingyue said, “After taking the antidote I’ve prepared, the poison in your system will be gone after a night’s sleep. However, with so many cuts on you, you’d still die if you don’t stop bleeding. Alas, I’ll have to waste more of my wound medicine…”

She took out a porcelain bottle from her sleeve pocket and poured the medicine powder onto his wounds after removing his clothes. “This is my exclusive antiseptic medicine recipe, a secret formula. It’s fast and effective. See, the bleeding stops as soon as it’s applied to the wound. After a night’s sleep, it’ll be much better.”

The middle-aged man looked at her intently applying the medicine. “Thank you so much…”

“May I know your name, Miss?”

“Unnamed.” She wanted to live a simple life and didn’t want to get involved with people who had vendettas. She wouldn’t reveal her name.

“Judging by your appearance… It’s not great. Getting married might be a problem. To repay the life-saving favor, I’ll marry you…” The middle-aged man’s voice was weak, but his tone was bold.

With blood covering the middle-aged man’s face, Su Qingyue couldn’t see his appearance clearly. She only asked, “How old are you, Uncle?”

“Thirty-nine. My wife has been dead for a long time… I’ll marry you as my main wife. Although I’m old, I have a lot of money, and I can give it all to you…”

“No need, no need.” After treating his injuries, Su Qingyue stood up. “I’m not interested in older men, and you don’t need to repay me.”

Leading her horse past him, she said, “Uncle, I’m leaving. Seeing that you were hacked dozens of times, and you’re still alive now shows your incredible resilience. You can take care of yourself when you have the strength after a short rest.”

She thought for a moment, then added, “If you really want to repay me, help me establish the reputation of the Divine Doctor ‘Unnamed’.”

Mounting her horse, she galloped away, leaving him behind in a cloud of dust.

If one day she was forced to leave the Xiao family, having the title of a divine doctor might make her medical fees much higher, which could be useful at that time.

Returning to the town, Su Qingyue ate a meal at a small restaurant, bought twenty Jin of pork and three chickens, and by the time she returned to the village, it was already evening.

The evening glow was so bright it cast a golden light across the sky. Wushan Village was bathed in its warmth. The simple houses stood one by one, and from time to time, villagers would pass by or take a break on the village road amidst wafts of cooking smoke, creating a peaceful atmosphere far from the hustle and bustle of the town.

With her abilities, perhaps she could make a name for herself in the martial world.

But witnessing the middle-aged uncle being pursued and the killers licking the blood on their knives made her realize how easily life could end.

She couldn’t help but think of her past life, living with her head in the dark, without seeing the light.

Even with her medical abilities, her life was still hanging by a thread.

She had grown tired of that kind of life.

During the days she lived with the Xiao family, her heart was at its most peaceful.

That was exactly what she wanted in this life.

Looking at the poor and rundown fenced courtyard and adobe house of the Xiao family from afar, she unexpectedly felt a sense of intimacy.

Home…

Actually, she hoped she could stay forever and not be forced to leave.

The kitchen chimney was smoking, so her fourth brother must be cooking dinner.

When Su Qingyue entered the Xiao Family’s courtyard leading the horse, she saw a woman sitting on a chair in the yard.

PS: My favorite girls, hurry up and check if you still have monthly tickets? In short, there are three ways to get monthly tickets. Whether you subscribe to any book, the system automatically gifts you a monthly ticket if you subscribe for more than five yuan; for subscriptions over fifteen yuan, a monthly ticket is generated that month. The third way is to reward ten thousand book currency to get monthly tickets. Perhaps there are other ways to get monthly tickets, but I can’t think of any for now. I don’t expect you to vote for me, just save your book currency for subscriptions, and I’ll be satisfied. I have been very diligent this month, often updating extra chapters. Today, I have already updated five chapters. As soon as the clock strikes zero, it’ll be the first of the month, and you’ll have new monthly tickets. Please vote for me after midnight; monthly tickets are crucial to me, and I’m begging on my knees!
