Chu Qingzhi walked over, “1 gathered some herbs and came to treat the cows.” Wu Yaqing joyfully said, “Qingzhi, you’re the best. I was worried about them.” “If not treated soon, they will indeed be seriously ill.” Chu Qingzhi took out the herbs one by one, combined them in a specific way, and then fed them to several cows.

Wu Yaqing was puzzled, “Qingzhi, why is each cow fed with different herbs?” Chu Qingzhi explained, “Their illnesses are different, so the herbs they take are naturally different.”

“I see…” Wu Yaqing dragged her voice, “Qingzhi, you’re really skilled.” “Qingzhi…” Shen Ruyue walked over, her expression not looking too good.

Chu Qingzhi turned around, worriedly asking, “Ruyue, what’s wrong?”

Shen Ruyue tightly furrowed her brows, “Lu Tianlan came again. She visited yesterday afternoon when you weren’t here, and now she’s back again.”

Lu Tianlan, hmm, time to thoroughly deal with Zhang Ziyang. Chu Qingzhi said, “I’ll go and see her.”

Lu Tianlan was waiting at the entrance of the courtyard in the new house. She clasped her hands tightly together, nervous and worried. When she saw Chu Qingzhi, she immediately put on a smiling face and greeted her, “Miss Qingzhi, 1 apologize for disturbing you.”

Chu Qingzhi pretended not to know why she was here. “Is there something you need?”

“Please go and see my young master again. Originally, after taking the medicine you prescribed, his body had already improved and he could move a little, but…” Lu Tianlan found it difficult to continue. “Then, he couldn’t move again.”

Chu Qingzhi thought to herself that if Zhang Ziyang couldn’t control his lower body, he really couldn’t blame anyone for dying on a woman. “Miss, you know my rules.”

Lu Tianlan immediately handed over two hundred taels of silver, “Please, Miss.”

Chu Qingzhi glanced at the money but didn’t take it. “This time it’s four hundred taels.”

Lu Tianlan’s expression darkened and her tone was particularly friendly. “Miss Qingzhi, must you take advantage of us like this?”

“Then find someone else. I’m very busy.” Chu Qingzhi turned and walked away without any hesitation.

Lu Tianlan’s handkerchief was crumpled in her hand. She closed her eyes and suppressed her emotions, saying reluctantly, “Miss, wait a second, I’ll pay.” Chu Qingzhi turned back and took the money, “Let’s go.”

Lu Tianlan watched Chu Qingzhi’s smiling face and wished she could slap it and shatter it, “Miss, please.”

Sitting in the carriage, Chu Qingzhi soon arrived at the Zhang residence.

Chu Qingzhi walked into Zhang Ziyang’s room, and the first words she uttered were, “Diagnosis fee: four hundred taels.”

Lu Tianlan’s face turned dark, and she reluctantly handed over the money to Chu Qingzhi. She planned to take back all the money once the young master recovered. If Chu Qingzhi didn’t give it back, she would ensure Chu Qingzhi’s business failed.

Zhang Ziyang’s cheekbones were protruding, eye sockets sunken, looking emaciated. He looked at Chu Qingzhi and weakly said, “Miss Qingzhi, as long as you cure me, 1 will give you one thousand taels of silver.”

Chu Qingzhi glanced at him. “It’ll cost 2,000 taels to write the prescription later.”

Zhang Ziyang choked when he heard that. “Why is it so expensive?”

Chu Qingzhi said in a serious tone, “Young Master Zhang, I’m saving your life.

Is your life only worth a few thousand taels of silver?”

That was true, but it still hurt to have to pay a few thousand taels of diagnosis fee. Zhang Ziyang thought to himself that as long as his life could be saved, a few thousand taels of silver was nothing.

Lu Tianlan walked over. “Miss, wasn’t it a thousand taels last time?”

Chu Qingzhi calmly replied, “I’ve raised the price this time.”

Lu Tianlan was speechless.

Chu Qingzhi took the pulse, looked at Lu Tianlan, and nonchalantly asked, “Do you want a prescription?”

Lu Tianlan clenched her teeth and handed over two banknotes each worth one thousand taels of silver to Chu Qingzhi.

Chu Qingzhi took the money and glanced at Lu Tianlan. This servant girl acted as if she was taking her own money. Hehe.

She wrote down the prescription and handed it to Lu Tianlan. “Do you want me to brew the medicine for you?”

Lu Tianlan took the prescription and said impolitely, “No need. We’ll do the rest ourselves.”

Chu Qingzhi said casually, “If your young master doesn’t control his lower body, he will die. If this happens again, don’t look for me next time.”

No matter what, Zhang Ziyang would eventually die. However, if he could not control his lower body, he would die faster.

With that, Chu Qingzhi left happily.

Lu Tianlan sent Chu Qingzhi away with a dark expression. Then, she immediately instructed the other servant girls to prepare the medicine. After that, she walked to the bed and said to Zhang Ziyang, “Young Master, that Chu Qingzhi is too much.”

Zhang Ziyang agreed, “Indeed, but consider this money as her dowry.”

Lu Tianlan was stunned. “Young Master, what do you mean?”

Zhang Ziyang said with great satisfaction, “1 think Chu Qingzhi looks much more beautiful than Shen Ruyue. When I recover, 1’11 take Chu Qingzhi as a concubine. Shen Ruyue can be a maid. By then, they can serve me together.” Lu Tianlan’s eyes lit up, “Master, this is a good idea, but what if they don’t agree?”

Zhang Ziyang originally thought of a sinister plan…

To arrest Chu Xuhua, make up some charges and send him to prison, then exile him or something. Meanwhile, force Shen Ruyue to submit to him. However, he suddenly contracted a strange illness and couldn’t implement this sinister plan.

If Chu Qingzhi doesn’t agree, he will do the same thing to Tang Jinghong in order to force Chu Qingzhi.

“Don’t worry, Chu Qingzhi will agree.”

But things are unpredictable…

After drinking the medicine that night, Zhang Ziyang recovered his strength. When he regained his strength, he felt like a lion. He wanted to go to a brothel to sleep with women.

Remembering Chu Qingzhi’s words, Lu Tianlan stopped Zhang Ziyang and also warned him not to engage in sexual activities.

Zhang Ziyang thought about his strange illness and dismissed the thought. However, once the idea was formed, it was challenging to dispel. After enduring for a while, he found that his desire not only didn’t decrease but increased. So, he brought Lu Tianlan to bed.

Lu Tianlan struggled and refused, but Zhang Ziyang thought she was flirting with him.

And the cost of him doing that was his life.

Zhang Ziyang’s wife had long been displeased with Lu Tianlan, and she used this matter as an excuse to sell Lu Tianlan.

No one cared about Lu Tianlan’s future fate.

On the other side, after leaving the Zhang residence, Chu Qingzhi walked towards the furniture store and coincidentally met Tang Jinghong.

Coincidentally, when she arrived, Tang Jinghong and his people were preparing to transport furniture to Chu village.

“Jinghong.”

Tang Jinghong was a little surprised to see Chu Qingzhi. “Why are you in the county?”

Chu Qingzhi said vaguely, “I’ll tell you when we get back.”

Tang Jinghong did not ask further. “Then do you want to eat anything? 1’11 buy it for you.”

Chu Qingzhi shook her head and said with a playful tone, “No need. Mother must have prepared a lot of delicious food. If I snack, 1 won’t be able to eat much later.”

Tang Jinghong smiled. “Then let’s go back and eat the food Aunt made.”

“Ok..”
