264 Where Did All That Come From?

“But after asking around for a long time, I only found Luo Cheng’s whereabouts and didn’t find out about his past. At this moment, my father saw the portrait of Luo Cheng that I asked someone to draw, so he hurriedly brought me back home!” At this point, Third Master Xue picked up his teacup and took a few more sips of tea. “It was also at this time that I realized that Luo Cheng and I weren’t biological brothers! Because the portrait in my father’s hand was his biological sister’s portrait!”

Luo Ziyang’s expression didn’t change when he heard this. He simply poured another glass of water for Third Master Xue.

“Then what’s with the jade cabbage pendant?”

“I didn’t hide it from my father and told him about Luo Cheng. After my father found out about this, he told me some things about the family and then gave me the jade cabbage pendant! My father said that unless it was absolutely necessary, I shouldn’t take this jade cabbage pendant out because my father actually has a deep sense of guilt towards my aunt!” Third Master Xue said, “Actually, I didn’t plan to say it in the beginning. I just wanted to see Luo Cheng and find out what his relationship with my aunt was!”

“Then why are you taking it out now?” Luo Ziyang stared at Third Master Xue and asked.

“Why? Because I need Luo Cheng’s help now!” Third Master Xue said with a bitter smile.

Luo Ziyang looked at Third Master Xue and thought of something. Then, he said, “From my understanding of my brother, he won’t help you!”

When Third Master Xue heard Luo Ziyang’s words, he immediately felt despair.

“Why?”

“There isn’t a reason for everything in this world! If there was a reason for everything, there wouldn’t be so many unfair things in this world! Third Master Xue, if you ask why, who will my brother ask?” Luo Ziyang sneered.

“Why should he help you? Because of the jade cabbage pendant you brought? Or because of the aunt you mentioned? Or because you’re cousins? But why should he?”

“Where did you guys, his relatives, go when my brother was at his most difficult time? Even if you couldn’t help, you could have stayed by his side, right? But where were you guys? Now that my brother doesn’t need relatives anymore, you guys came out of nowhere when you guys didn’t contribute at all. You still want him to help you? Why? Because you’re shameless?”

With that, Luo Ziyang stood up and left.

No wonder his brother was so angry. If it were him, he would be very angry too.

Family members also needed to contribute in order to maintain their relationship.

They contributed nothing, but appeared when he was needed.

Why would he want such a relative? To cause trouble for himself?

When Luo Ziyang walked out angrily, he saw Luo Cheng and Li Xiaoran walking down the mountain.

“Brother, Sister-in-law!”

Luo Cheng glanced at Luo Ziyang and nodded. “You got the information out of him?”

Luo Ziyang nodded, then told him what he had asked.

Luo Cheng didn’t say anything.

“Give him the pill in my vine box and send him away!”

“Brother! That medicine took you a lot of effort to make!” Luo Ziyang said with some distress.

“It’s fine. I think it’s worth it to use a pill to sever a relationship! Tell him that this pill will be exchanged for the jade cabbage pendant in his hand. From now on, we’ll be strangers!” Luo Cheng said.

Luo Ziyang understood Luo Cheng’s intentions. He nodded and left.

After Luo Ziyang left, Li Xiaoran asked curiously, “You really know medicine?”

When Luo Cheng heard that Li Xiaoran was doubting his medical skills for the umpteenth time, he immediately laughed.

“Wife, why don’t you believe that your husband has good medical skills?”

When Li Xiaoran heard this, she sized Luo Cheng up carefully.

“You’re really not lying to me?”

“Why would I lie to you? Is there any benefit to it?!” Luo Cheng looked at Li Xiaoran’s suspicious expression as he said.

“That’s good. If you really know medicine, our family won’t have to worry about medical treatment in the future!” As Li Xiaoran said this, she suddenly thought of something. “You made the medicine you gave me when I hit my head previously?”

“That’s right! The effect is not bad, right?!” Luo Cheng nodded.

“Also, when my father was injured, he used the medicine you gave him, right?! No wonder my father said that he recovered quickly. So it’s because he used your medicine?” Li Xiaoran thought of something else.

Luo Cheng nodded with a smile once again.

Seeing this, Li Xiaoran pounced over and hugged Luo Cheng.

“That’s great, husband! I really didn’t expect your medical skills to be so brilliant. Teach me in your free time so I can at least prescribe medicine for myself when I’m sick in the future!”

Luo Cheng didn’t expect Li Xiaoran to take the initiative to throw herself at him at this moment.

After reaching out to hug Li Xiaoran, Luo Cheng pretended to ponder over it.

“I’ll have to consider it!”

“What’s there to consider?! Just agree! I’m very smart. I will definitely master it very quickly! I don’t have to master any profound medical skills. I just need to learn some basic medical skills!” Li Xiaoran couldn’t help but wheedle.

“You already have me by your side, so why are you insistent on learning these things?! It’s not that I’m unwilling to teach you, but learning medicine is very tiring. First, you have to recognize herbs and remember the medicinal properties of herbs. Then, you have to memorize a lot of pulse information, as well as extraordinary meridians, acupuncture points, and so on. These are all very basic things. In the end, you also have to identify and prescribe medicine. The dosage of medicine has to be adjusted to the appropriate amount. Are you sure you want to learn medicine?” Luo Cheng asked again.

Li Xiaoran was stumped by Luo Cheng. When she heard that she had to learn so much, she immediately stressed.

“Forget it! Just teach me a few prescriptions for emergencies! This way, even if I encounter danger, I can detoxify myself and protect myself!”

When Luo Cheng heard Li Xiaoran’s suggestion, he thought about it carefully. “This is a good idea! I’ll think about what to teach you!”

“Then it’s a deal! Don’t go back on your word!” With that, Li Xiaoran stood on her tiptoes and kissed Luo Cheng’s cheek with a smile as she said, “I’ve made my mark. It’s a deal!”

Luo Cheng was stunned by Li Xiaoran’s kiss. When he came back to his senses, he offered her the other cheek.

“I want another kiss here!”

Seeing this, Li Xiaoran immediately kissed him again.

This time, Luo Cheng was satisfied.

“Whatever you say! I’ll definitely satisfy you!”
