Chapter 104 New Wine

Creak —

The door was gently pushed open. Su Li poked out her head, but did not see Yan Shixun and Yan Hongxiu. She could not help but feel strange. She concentrated on curing Yan Ziye just now and had no time to listen to Yan Shixun’s words.

“Miss?”

At this time, Madam Yan came in a hurry. She felt shocked when she saw Su Li. She walked to Su Li in hurry and asked anxiously, “How is Ziye? Can I come in and have a look?”

She was told by a maid that a young doctor volunteered to cure Yan Ziye. She immediately disregarded the maid’s advice and got up directly from the bed and then ran here in spite of her dizziness.

She felt totally disappointed after seeing Su Li. Although Su Li was wearing a veil, she could see at a glance how old Su Li was. It was impossible for such a young girl to have excellent medical skills.

Su Li looked at Madam Yan and said with a warm smile, “Your son is no longer in danger. He will wake up in a few hours. You can go in and sit and wait.”

“Ah!”

Madam Yan did not believe Su Li’s words at all. She responded perfunctorily and went in with red eyes. Su Li did not get angry. She tidied up her clothes and quietly left the Yan Family with the herb cabinet.

Madam Yan went to the room and saw Ziye on the bed. She instantly felt surprised. She clearly remembered that Ziye was as pale as a piece of paper before, but now he was ruddy. It seemed that Ziye was sleeping instead of being in a coma.

“The girl does have excellent medical skills, doesn’t she?”

A hint of doubt flashed thorough Madam Yan’s eyes. At this moment, Yan Ziye gave a soft hum and Madam Yan immediately raised her head. Instantly she saw that Ziye’s eyelashes trembled and that he opened his eyes.

“Ye, you wake up!”

Madam Yan was so happy that she immediately ran out to inform Yan Shixun, “Master, Ziye wakes up! He wakes up!”

Yan Ziye looked at the top of the bed and was at a loss. Where was he?

“Yes! I stimulated Jin Cheng’ao in the dungeon. Unexpectedly, his Xuangong broke through and collapsed the dungeon… Am I still alive?”

Yan Ziye raised his hands and found that he was not as weak as he had thought, but his chest was still in dull pain.

“My wound?”

Yan Ziye touched his chest and looked surprised. When he was hit, he knew that he would be dead or disabled due to the severe injury. But now the pain in his body made him realize that his injury was not serious. He would be full of vim and vigor after the recuperation in about half a month!

“Ziye!”

The voice of Yan Shixun came from outside the door, and then the door was opened. Yan Hongxiu and Madam Yan also came.

“Dad.”

Yan Ziye’s eyes flashed with shame, and then he said, “I was wrong. I didn’t expect that Jin Cheng’ao almost broke through the peak of the acquired realm. I just scolded him for a while.”

“…You!”

Yan Shixun was so angry, but he didn’t know how to scold him. Ziye was saved from the gate of hell just now. Would he give him severer punishment?

“Forget it. You don’t have to care about the matter. Settle down to recuperate. If Ms. Li hadn’t saved you timely, you might have died!”

Yan Shixun snorted coldly and went off in a huff. Madam Yan’s face was wreathed in smiles. The Master’s bark was worse than his bite. He was anxious before, but now he was pretending to be calm.

“Did Ms. Li come?” Yan Ziye looked astounded and immediately felt relieved with a bitter smile, and then he said, “I knew that I was not hurt so lightly.”

“The immortal master came by herself.”

Yan Hongxiu said with a smile, “It seems that Ms. Li cares about the Third Brother very much. I was asking our Daddy to look for the immortal master. I didn’t expect that the immortal master had arrived.”

“Fortunately, the girl has excellent medical skills and saved your life! You should thank her seriously.”

Madam Yan kept a straight face and said, “You know, when Dr. Lin told us to prepare a funeral for you, my heart was broken! You must not be reckless in the future. Your life is the most important!”

Hearing his mother’s warning, Yan Ziye felt both guilty and cared, and then he said, “Mother, rest assured. I will act according to my ability in the future.”

“Tell me details. How did you meet Ms. Li?” Yan Shixun could not help asking seeing his son get better.

“We met in the prisoner camp…” Yan Ziye thought of the scene that day and instantly said in no hurry.

…

After Su Li returned to the Linli Building, her life became quiet again. After the incident of Jin Cheng’ao, the contradiction between the Yan and the Jin Families became obvious. As a result, the Jin Family didn’t dare to be as arrogant as before. Both the Linli Building and the embroidery workshop operated as usual. No one made trouble on purpose anymore.

As for the course of the school, Su Li asked for leave because of her injuries. She didn’t worry about it. So, Su Li stayed in the Linli Building these days and let Fang Yuan find a craftsman to make a set of distillation equipment mentioned by her husband in previous life.

“Su Li, what’s your purpose of making it? It looks very strange!”

Qu Qingning ran over and looked at the huge equipment in the underground adytum. Two dolioform objects were connected together by long pipes. No one knew its functions.

“It is used to make wine.” Su Li smiled and answered briefly without interpretation.

“The equipment?”

Qu Qingning looked confused and said, “Can it make wine?”

“After the new wine is made, you’ll know. I’ll teach you how to use it.” Su Li checked the equipment to make sure the airtightness was good. Then she turned around and left. She began to prepare rice wine.

“Sister Li, this is ordinary rice wine. I think it can be bought on the market.” Fang Ling complained while helping Su Li, “If this kind of wine is sold in our winery, it will affect the class of our winery.”

“Ling, don’t talk nonsense. Su Li certainly has a special way.” Yin Xuetong looked at Su Li, who was busy and silent, and reminded Fang Ling in a low voice.

Fang Ling stuck out her tongue and instantly did not speak. Su Li stored up the rice for fermentation and wiped her face. She said with a smile, “When the rice wine is brewed, you will know. Ling, follow my steps these days. Brew more wine and store it in the warehouse. Remember to date it.”

“Okay!”

Fang Ling hurriedly nodded. She had always followed Su Li’s order unconditionally.

“Xuetong, you might as well announce the news of the new wine. The wine can be launched on the market in a few days.”

Yin Xuetong nodded slightly hearing what Su Li said. Then she could not help asking, “What exactly is our new wine? If we launch it so vaguely, I’m afraid that it will not be well-received.”

Su Li tilted her head and thought for a moment, and then she said, “Add one word.”

Then she wrote a word on the ground with a little water and turned away without saying anything. Yin Xuetong saw the word on the ground and looked more confused. She said, “Spirits? What kind of wine is it? It seems that there are no spirits in the Dahan Country…”

Su Li finished chores and returned to the top floor. She opened the window and looked at the direction of the Satrap’s Mansion.

She was waiting for someone.

She could completely cure Yan Ziye’s wounds with her cultivation and then quietly left. But she chose to go fair and square. In this way, the news that Ms. Li was a medical master would surely be known by Wen Ruomin very soon.

There had been no news of Gong Xiangjun for half a month. She did not believe that Wen Ruomin would not visit her after the news that Yan Ziye recovered from a serious injury came out.

“This time it’s just for the sake of repaying Feng Qingru’s favor. If it isn’t for that, I will not have to do it.”

Su Li sighed and had mixed feelings. But the favor was the most difficult to pay off… She wanted Feng Qingru to be the workshop owner of the embroidery workshop in accordance with the trajectory of her previous life and let her have no regrets in this life.

If she did what she wanted, her favor would be paid off.

Su Li had this in her mind. But she waited for seven days and didn’t see anyone visit the Linli Building. It made her nervous. Had Gong Xiangjun met with an accident?

Or… Gong Xiangjun died!

Su Li’s eyes narrowed slightly. She turned around and went downstairs. After less than one hour, she had renewed her original identity and appeared in the school courtyard.

“Go and see Dean Gong. There has been no news for a long time and I am worried.”

Su Li came out of the door. Xiaowu and Datian, who had been worried for many days, looked happy and instantly hesitated to say, “Lord, your wound…”

“Don’t worry.” Su Li smiled and shook her head, and then she said, “After many days of recuperation, I almost recover. I can’t take a carriage for a long time, but such a short distance is okay.”

“Let’s go ahead as you say.”

Xiaowu gritted his teeth and pulled up a carriage elaborately transformed. The carriage was covered with layers of cotton flannel and it greatly reduced the shock.

“We made it for you, hee hee…”

Xiaowu scratched his scalp and his face was reddish. He smiled embarrassedly.

Su Li was in a daze and immediately showed a mild smile, and then she said, “Thanks for your kindness. Let’s go.”

“OK!”

Xiaowu and Datian immediately jumped into the carriage and gently lashed on the horse’s rump. The carriage instantly drove into the forest.

Su Li noticed that Xiaowu deliberately slowed down and she became more silent. A strange feeling rose from her heart.

In her previous life, she was accustomed to deceiving and blackmailing. She remained very vigilant to anyone that she had met. So, she didn’t have the luck to enjoy such plain enthusiasm of Xiaowu and Datian.

“Xiaowu, which village do you come from?”

Xiaowu instantly laughed out hearing what Su Li said, and then he said, “Lady, Datian and I are both from a small fishing village beside the river road outside the Qinghe Town. It’s very remote. The villagers don’t eat well and are not educated. Both of us are orphans growing up there. We are not educated. Don’t laugh at us.”

Su Li bit her lips slightly when hearing what Xiaowu said. She immediately responded, “I see. I’m quite curious. If you are free, take me to your village. OK?

Xiaowu felt very happy when hearing Su Li’s words, and then he said, “That’s really great! If we go back with you, we seem to return to the hometown in silken robes. We haven’t seen the elderly village head for many years.”

Then Xiaowu suddenly felt that it was inappropriate and hesitated to say, “Lady, we can’t take you to our village. In consideration of your appearance, it’s not very safe for you to go there.”

“Don’t worry. I’ll take the guards with me.”

Su Li’s words dispelled Xiaowu’s doubts. Datian listened with a grin. It was great to take the opportunity to go back and have a look. There were guards protecting them. They didn’t have to worry about being robbed by thieves.

Su Li sat in the carriage and looked placid.

She had the idea of visiting Xiaowu’s hometown just now. If both of them were willing, she would like to help them. But everything was unclear. She would make a decision after vising the small fishing village.

“Lady, the courtyard of Dean Gong is here.”

Xiaowu’s voice came. Su Li stepped down from the carriage and came to the courtyard. She instantly frowned. Besides Gong Min, Gong Xiangjun, Wen Ruomin and Feng Qingru, there were others…

The maids at the door saw Su Li coming in and saluted immediately. They knew the relationship between Su Li and Dean Gong. They immediately took Su Li into the courtyard without notice. Su Li followed them across a courtyard door and the unclear voice in the courtyard instantly became clear.

“Min, don’t refuse to realize your error! Take your grandma with me back to Yunjing. The doctor in Yunjing is better than that in the countryside like the Qinghe Town. Will you see your grandma die in front of you helplessly? How cruel you are!”
