Chapter 2341

"Eat some buns to fill your stomach. Lunch is coming soon, so don't eat too much."

Zhu Yanyi nodded. "Did you buy the medicine?"

"I bought it. Check it later, then boil it," Yan Ao'an said.

After finishing her buns, Zhu Yanyi went to check the herbs. Once confirmed, she boiled three bowls of water down to one. She then took the medicine and entered the room with Shi Nengjun.

Zhang Xiaofeng had not yet woken up. Zhu Yanyi used a syringe to push the liquid medicine into her. She then asked Shi Nengjun to help change her clothes. Only after ensuring everything was settled did she come out.

Zhu Yanyi said to Shi Nengjun, "Now we just wait. You can find something fun to do, like reading, listening to music, or watching TV if you like."

"Or I could go home and get my game console. I like playing games," Shi Nengjun said, clearly interested.

"Then go get it," Zhu Yanyi said. "But do not bring anyone else here."

"I remember that," Shi Nengjun said. He naturally wouldn't forget this rule. He hurried home to get his things. What he called "things" was actually a laptop.

Laptops were very expensive now, costing over ten thousand yuan for a basic one. Gaming laptops were even pricier, often costing over twenty thousand. Of course, the memory capacity was not as high as in later years.

However, most games now were single-player and didn't require much memory. Still, laptops remained costly.

Shi Nengjun rushed back with her computer. It was very quiet at Zhu Yanyi’s house, so she didn't worry about being disturbed while playing.

Taking advantage of her free time, Zhu Yanyi started tending to the plants in the yard. This would help them grow better in the coming days.

As a traveling doctor, Zhu Yanyi no longer needed a strict schedule. She could take her time. She planned to stay in Sicheng Town for a few more days after Zhang Xiaofeng recovered, then head to Hangzhou. The route remained the same, but the timing was up to her.

"Ani, Dad called. She asked when we are coming back?" Yan Ao Han asked, seeing Zhu Yanyi busy with the plants.

Zhu Yanyi didn't hesitate. "We’ll go back in half a month. We need to wait until Zhang Xiaofeng is sent off first."

"Okay." Yan Ao Han went aside to reply. He returned quickly and said, "Dad said Tianyun and Guiyun are coming to Yong City for a school spring outing. He asked us to look after them for two days."

Zhu Yanyi raised an eyebrow slightly. "Tianyun and Guiyun are coming for a spring outing? That’s rare. If it’s a school trip, they should be with their classmates. Why are we taking care of them?"

Yan Ao Han explained, "It seems Second Aunt’s family has a funeral. Grandpa and Grandma, as relatives, need to attend. But Tianyun and Guiyun’s zodiac signs clash with the event. It would be bad for them to go. So, they used the excuse of a school trip to keep them away. The children don’t know the truth, so no one questions it."

Zhu Yanyi nodded. Honestly, she found this excuse speechless.

"The person who made up this excuse is quite clever. They could have just said the zodiac signs clashed. Would anyone force the children to go?" Zhu Yanyi shook her head slightly. "So, what time should we pick them up tomorrow?"

"Tomorrow at 12:30 PM. Grandpa has already spoken to the teacher. I usually go early, so it doesn’t matter," Yan Ao Han said.

"Fine. You go pick them up tomorrow. I have a patient here, so I can’t leave," Zhu Yanyi said.

Yan Ao Han nodded. "Okay, I’ll handle it."

Zhu Yanyi trusted Yan Ao Han completely. Her picking up the children was the most normal thing, and she had no worries.

The next day, Zhu Yanyi checked on Zhang Xiaofeng as usual. Since Shi Nengjun had been allowed to stay overnight to help, Zhang Xiaofeng had already woken up.

Seeing Zhu Yanyi, she said, "Captain, I really troubled you this time."

"The surgery was successful," Zhu Yanyi said with a faint smile. "It’s not really a trouble. Honestly, it’s nothing for me." She smiled lightly, not taking it to heart. "Since you’re awake, you can drink the medicine now."

Zhu Yanyi handed a bowl of herbal soup to Shi Nengjun, asking her to help Zhang Xiaofeng drink it.

"This medicine won’t hurt your stomach, so you can drink it. I made white porridge and will bring it later. For the next few days, the connection points of your leg surgery will feel very itchy. This means your meridians are connecting. You must endure it and not scratch," Zhu Yanyi explained. "If you can’t bear it, call me. I’ll use needles to make you sleep. But it’s better to endure it yourself."

"Thank you. I can endure it," Zhang Xiaofeng said. He was very happy now. After so many years, he finally had hope of standing up again. No matter how painful or itchy it was, it meant he could stand again.

Zhu Yanyi nodded. "I’m going out to buy some groceries. Shi Nengjun, is there anything special you want to eat?" She glanced at Zhang Xiaofeng. "You can forget it. You can only eat white porridge for the next two days."

Zhang Xiaofeng paused and said nothing. Shi Nengjun said, "I really like seafood. Buy me a big crab."

"Okay," Zhu Yanyi agreed. "You two can chat. I’m leaving."

After she left, Shi Nengjun looked at Zhang Xiaofeng. "Xiaofeng, are you really okay? How do your legs feel?"

"I can feel them. It feels good," Zhang Xiaofeng said slowly.

Shi Nengjun said, "If that’s true, this divine doctor really can create miracles. The rumors must be true."

"I don’t know if she creates miracles. But in Sicheng Town, she has another name. When I was young, we called her the 'Medical Buddha Girl.' I heard her blessings were very powerful. I wonder if they are still effective after all these years," Zhang Xiaofeng said thoughtfully.

Zhang Xiaofeng remembered when she was very young, she went to the Guanyin Temple with her grandmother for the consecration ceremony. That day, she saw Zhu Yanyi’s blessing and felt its power. Because of that blessing, her health had always been good. During her years as a soldier, her health was above average, which is why she could get a job in Yong City after retiring.

Of course, he wouldn’t tell Shi Nengjun this.

Shi Nengjun didn’t know this either, but hearing about the blessing made him curious. For now, he could only listen.

Zhu Yanyi didn’t care about their conversation. She rode in Yan Ao Han’s car to go out. She dropped her off at the nearby market. "Be careful on the way back," Yan Ao Han said with a smile.

Zhu Yanyi nodded. "You can wait a bit. Don’t pick up the children before their activity is over."

Yan Ao Han smiled and nodded. "I know. I have it under control."

The couple parted ways. Zhu Yanyi entered the market to buy groceries.

In Yong City, fresh seafood was delivered from nearby ports. The prices were a bit high, but for Zhu Yanyi, who didn’t lack money, it was nothing. She bought a lot of things directly.

Of course, when no one was watching, she put them into her Ruyi Space. She only held a few items in her hand as a show, then left.

Zhu Yanyi returned home calmly. She put the needed ingredients in the kitchen and started cooking.

Shi Nengjun heard the noise and came out. Seeing Zhu Yanyi busy in the kitchen, she said, "Honestly, with such a big villa, you should hire a nanny or something."

Zhu Yanyi said, "We won’t stay here long, so I didn’t think about it. Besides, we have hourly cleaners for cleaning." She added, "Why did you come out? Is there a problem with Zhang Xiaofeng?"

"No, I just heard the noise and came out, worried about thieves," Shi Nengjun answered.

Zhu Yanyi smiled. "Don’t worry. Thieves can’t enter our house."

"Why?" Shi Nengjun asked.

Zhu Yanyi chuckled lightly. "I set up a simple formation with the plants around me. If I don’t want someone to enter, the formation will stop them. Otherwise, do you think our house would be so quiet?"

"Wait, wait," Shi Nengjun said. "Is the formation you mentioned the Peach Blossom Array from The Legend of the Condor Heroes?"

"Not that complicated," Zhu Yanyi laughed lightly. "My formation is simple. It doesn’t have deep principles. I just don’t want people to disturb us. Usually, anyone who sneaks in or climbs the wall will be mysteriously sent out. That’s why no thieves enter our house."

Shi Nengjun was curious. "Then why didn’t I encounter it?"

"If you don’t believe me, you can try climbing the wall," Zhu Yanyi said calmly.

"Really? I’ll try it." This person had nothing to do and was bored, so he wanted to find something to do.

Fortunately, Zhu Yanyi didn’t care. If she wanted to suffer, let her.

Shi Nengjun actually walked out, climbed the wall, and entered. He found that although he entered the wall, it felt like he was walking through a forest. Then, he realized he was outside the wall again.

She entered through the front door, panting, with a look of curiosity and admiration. "Divine Doctor, no, I should call you Master. Teach me the formation."

"I won’t teach," Zhu Yanyi answered directly. "I don’t take disciples."
