My Silly, Sweet Wife

The clerks originally wanted to stop him, but seeing Ye Guichen’s terrifying skills, they instinctively stepped back.

”Young brother, please wait a moment.” Su Tong finally spoke: ”If you want to prove that you’re not here to cause trouble, could you please come with me?”

Ye Guichen stopped in his tracks and looked at Su Tong disdainfully: ”Mr. Su, are you exploiting your seniority?”

”No!” Su Tong’s face turned grave, feeling an inexplicable pressure as Ye Guichen stared at him.

To others, Su Tong appeared to be an elderly man in his sixties, but few knew that he was also a third-rate martial artist.

Earlier, Ye Guichen just sensed that this Chinese medicine shop seemed different from others, which is why he came in.

He hadn’t expected to be so misunderstood.

Seeing that Ye Guichen wasn’t afraid of him, and even caused him to feel an unnamed pressure, Su Tong’s tone also softened: ”Young brother, I haven’t heard of the medicines you mentioned, but if you don’t mind, could you come with me? If what you say is true, someone might know.”

Ye Guichen knew that the medicines he mentioned were rare, almost undocumented, and was here mostly to try his luck.

But hearing Su Tong’s words, Ye Guichen couldn’t help but feel a bit curious.

Those who knew of these medicines could probably be counted on one hand.

It was precisely these rare medicines that could stimulate Bai Qinghe to break through.

”Alright!” After hesitating for a moment, Ye Guichen nodded.

He wasn’t afraid that the people of this pharmacy would scheme against him.

”Alright, you can all go about your business!” Su Tong waved his hand, signaling the clerks to continue their work.

Although he felt that Ye Guichen boasting about being able to dismantle the pharmacy with his bare hands was a bit exaggerated, Su Tong could tell that no number of clerks could deal with Ye Guichen.

The clerks, worried that Ye Guichen might cause trouble, reluctantly nodded and got up from the floor, giving Ye Guichen a resentful look.

Ignoring them, Ye Guichen followed Su Tong through the back door of the pharmacy.

The back of the pharmacy connected to a long corridor, which led to several rows of houses that had an antique charm.

After passing through the corridor, they arrived at a courtyard.

Entering the courtyard, a fragrant medicinal scent wafted through the air.

The view revealed a garden filled with rare Chinese medicinal herbs.

Sitting in a wheelchair was a young girl of about twenty.

With fair skin, she held a cat in her arms and was engrossed in reading an extremely ancient medical book.

Hearing footsteps, she looked up at Su Tong and Ye Guichen.

”Grandpa Su?” the girl smiled gently, dimples appearing on her cheeks, her eyes falling on Ye Guichen. ”Who is this?”

”Girl, this young brother mentioned a few medicinal herbs that I’ve never heard of, so I brought him here to ask you.” Su Tong said, moving behind the girl’s wheelchair, then turned to Ye Guichen: ”Young brother, could you repeat the medicines you mentioned?”

Ye Guichen glanced at the girl, noticing her disability, and swallowed his anger.

He felt there might be some reason why Yunji Hall suspected he was looking for trouble, so he smiled faintly and said, ”I want to buy three medicines: Snake Seed, Dragon Gall Powder, and Limitless Root.”

”What?” The girl was shocked, looking at Ye Guichen incredulously. ”How do you know these three medicines exist?”

Su Tong was also shocked, hurriedly asking: ”Girl, are these medicines real?”

The girl nodded: ”Yes, but these medicines are barely documented in medical compendiums. I’ve only seen them in a very old ancient text, and they are extremely difficult to harvest. It’s said that even if someone knows about these medicines, they wouldn’t know their uses, so...”

”So...” Su Tong’s face turned awkward: ”He really is here to buy medicine, not to cause trouble?”

Hearing this, the girl showed a hint of reproach: ”Grandpa Su, did you give him a hard time again?”

”Ahem, girl, you know the old man from the Mai Family doesn’t want us to run this pharmacy. He’s always trying various tricks to ruin our reputation. I thought this young brother was using the pretext of buying medicine to tarnish our name.” Su Tong spoke with a face full of apology, cupping his hands towards Ye Guichen: ”Young brother, it seems I’ve misunderstood you. But, these three rare medicines, how did you know? And may I ask what you need them for?”

Curious, Su Tong couldn’t help but ask.

Ye Guichen didn’t want to explain: ”If you don’t have them, I’ll look elsewhere. As for the rest, I cannot disclose.”

With that, he turned to leave.

The girl hurriedly called out: ”Young brother, we don’t have them right now, but I can get them within three days.”

”You can get them?” Ye Guichen didn’t expect her to say that. ”You also said these medicines are incredibly rare. They’re not something you can just get as you wish.”

The girl smiled confidently: ”Young brother, you might think I’m exaggerating, but if Yunji Hall can’t get these medicines, then don’t expect to find them in Yun City, or even in the entire Jiangnan Province. Also, apart from me, perhaps no one else knows about these medicines.”
