Chapter 752 The Best Person in the World!
Chapter 752 The Best Person in the World!
For some reason, Huang Sumu was so nervous that he didn't even dare to lift his head.
Before meeting his master, he was just a young doctor from the countryside who was fortunate enough to practice medicine in a county clinic. But after meeting his master, he learned that his master's elder brother was a famous general in the Northwest, his grandmasters were military doctors, and his fellow disciples were imperial physicians. It was said that his master's ancestor was from the Valley of the Medicine God.
This was something that would have terrified him to death if any of these words had been spoken before.
So what kind of status does Master's husband have now?
Huang Sumu felt like his brain couldn't keep up.
"No need for formalities," Zong Que said, his voice softening as he saw Lu Yangyang's energetic demeanor, which also eased the tension of parting.
No matter what the future holds, his greatness should always remain this vibrant and energetic.
Zong Que subconsciously wanted to find some gifts on his person, but then he realized that he had already taken a break from his busy schedule to see Lu Yangyang this time. Apart from giving her a birthday gift, how could he have time to prepare anything else?
Zong Que turned to look at Pei Ji, who had followed him in, and beckoned with his finger.
Pei Ji walked over and slowly took out a few things from his body. Zong Que glanced at them, took out a silver note, and handed it to Huang Sumu, who was still bowing his head and not daring to look up. "Yangyang has praised you many times. I was in a hurry when I came out and didn't bring a gift. This is for you."
Huang Sumu didn't see clearly what Zong Que handed over, and subconsciously reached out with both hands to take it. Only after taking it did he realize that it was a folded silver note.
He stared dumbfounded at the silver note in his hand, too embarrassed to open it. Although he felt it was inappropriate to accept his master's money so soon after meeting him, he still subconsciously thanked him first, "Thank you, Master."
Just then, Lu Yangyang came out carrying a box and handed it to Pei Ji, saying, "I've already marked the usage instructions, so keep it safe."
Pei Ji's arms went limp from the weight of the box, and he was once again astonished by Lu Yangyang's strength. "Is there a lump of iron in this box?"
"What do you mean, 'lump of iron'? This is a treasure!" Lu Yangyang glared at him. "Hold it tight, don't bump or scratch it!"
Pei Ji: "..."
Taking the opportunity, Huang Sumu quickly whispered, "Master, this..."
Lu Yangyang then noticed the silver note in Huang Sumu's hand and looked up at Zong Que.
Zong Que was slightly embarrassed, "I left in a hurry..."
Lu Yangyang blinked: "Then I'll remember that. You're my disciple, and also like half a son to me. Give me some pointers in the future."
She can only teach medicine; she can't teach anything else. Zong Que personally taught Mingxiu and Yin Yueling; they are both his disciples, so he can't favor one over the other!
Zong Que chuckled: "Alright."
"What are you talking about? Why is it so lively?" Sheng Junyao strode over from the doorway and said to Zong Que, "Everything is ready."
Zong Que nodded, then looked at Lu Yangyang.
Lu Yangyang waved her hand: "You guys go ahead. Su Mu and I will go check on the situation at the slaughterhouse. Brother, please call out to Uncle Fang. I've neglected Uncle Fang these past two days, and I have something important to discuss with him!"
“Alright, alright, you go ahead, I’ll escort Aque out of the city,” Sheng Junyao replied with a smile.
Lu Yangyang left with Huang Sumu carrying her medicine box, and Zong Que and Sheng Junyao followed them out.
This parting will be fraught with peril from now on, with no day of peace ever to come.
But none of them turned back down this road.
……
After leaving the mansion, Lu Yangyang went to fetch the horse. Huang Sumu opened the silver note and looked at it, almost thinking he was seeing things. He handed the silver note to Lu Yangyang in disbelief, "Master, this silver note, one, ten thousand taels?"
He had never seen a banknote with such an outrageous denomination.
Is this a gift from my master that he gave me so casually? It's so unreasonable.
Lu Yangyang was about to mount her horse with Xiaozao when she noticed Huang Sumu's nervous hand and thought to herself, "I should have gone to extort Pei Ji. How could I forget that he's the one with the money!"
She could easily pull out tens of thousands of silver notes from her person; no wonder Zong Que once told her that if she didn't have money, she should ask Pei Ji for it.
Huang Sumu wanted to return the silver notes to her: "Master, these are too many silver notes, I can't accept them."
Lu Yangyang mounted her horse. "Take it. There's no reason to take back a gift."
Huang Sumu: "But..."
"No buts, get on the horse quickly, the wounded are waiting!" Lu Yangyang urged him.
Huang Sumu had no choice but to carefully stuff the silver notes into his pocket and keep them close to his body before mounting his horse and following Lu Yangyang.
"Master, who is Grandmaster?" Huang Sumu asked in a low voice, finding the offer too generous.
“He’s the best person in the world!” Lu Yangyang laughed.
