My Silly, Sweet Wife

Don’t mention it, even Su Tong looked utterly confused.

Resurrection from the dead?

This must be a fantasy, right?

Moreover, revived after being slapped over ten times? This is just bizarre, isn’t it?

”Cough cough, I almost suffocated.” The woman who was previously dead coughed violently twice, looked around in confusion, and then, seeing so many people around, asked with a strange expression: ”What’s going on, why am I here?”

”Wife, are... are you human or ghost?” The man stared at the woman intently, trembling as he spoke.

”You’re the ghost!” The woman glared fiercely at the man: ”After drinking the herbal medicine, I felt bitter and ate a date and almost choked to death. You, are you wishing for my death?”

This woman clearly had a fierce personality, grabbing the man’s ear as she spoke: ”Speak, do you have someone outside waiting for me to die?”

”Wife, it hurts, hurts, hurts!” The man finally seemed to react, shouting in pain and explaining: ”I thought you were dead, this is Yunji Hall pharmacy, there are many people here, show me some face.”

”Ah?” The woman finally reacted, quickly letting go of the man’s hand and turning to see Su Tong staring in astonishment. She immediately put on a smile and bowed to Su Tong: ”Mr. Su, you are amazing. After taking your medicine, my stomach no longer hurts, and my appetite returned.”

”Oh, it’s good that you’re fine, good that you’re fine.” Su Tong was still in a state of half-shock.

However, the woman’s words made the onlookers also wake up from their daze.

”So she was just choking?”

”I knew it, Doctor Su couldn’t possibly kill someone with medicine.”

”Exactly, haha, we firmly believe in Doctor Su, Doctor Su is extraordinary!”

It really felt like the phrase ”when the wall falls, everyone gives it a push.”

Now that Su Tong’s innocence was proven, those who initially cursed him the most started to flatter him.

Meanwhile, not far from Yunji Hall at Tongren Hall.

Hua Jingsong lay back on a recliner, looking pleased.

”So, Yunji Hall is done for, right?” He asked.

A clerk at the door looked towards Yunji Hall. Hearing Hua’s question, he hurriedly ran to Hua Jingsong: ”Mr. Hua, it’s strange, people have dispersed, and the woman who was dead seems to have revived!”

”What?” Hua Jingsong immediately sat up from his recliner: ”Revived? How is that possible!”

He had spent many years on this street and since Su Tong from Yunji Hall arrived, he had stolen quite a bit of business from him.

Hua Jingsong had always wanted to find an opportunity to deal with Yunji Hall, and today heaven provided him the chance.

Medicine killed someone, this reason could definitely destroy Yunji Hall irreparably.

So, after just returning from the snack street, Hua Jingsong acted like a good person and even personally examined, confirmed that the person had died.

Although he did not know the cause of death, Hua Jingsong used some tricks to make everyone believe it.

As the saying goes, ”competitors are adversaries,” Hua Jingsong felt this time he could definitely squeeze Yunji Hall out of Yun City.

But the woman revived, this is nonsense?

”I checked personally, how could she have revived?” Hua Jingsong’s mouth twitched, and he ordered the clerk: ”Go and find out what’s going on.”

The clerk agreed and quickly ran out.

Soon, the clerk returned: ”Mr. Hua, it seems a young man slapped the deceased woman over ten times, reviving her!”

”What?” Hua Jingsong thought he had heard wrong. After confirming several times, he asked: ”Who is that person?”

The clerk shook his head: ”I don’t know, I’ve never seen him before, he hasn’t appeared here before.”

Hua Jingsong, holding in his anger, waved his hand for the clerk to busy himself.

”I didn’t expect Yunji Hall to escape this calamity.” Although somewhat unwilling, Hua Jingsong still thought of his imminent cooperation with the soon-to-open Imperial Medical Restaurant, making him feel slightly better.

Today, he went to the snack street to discuss cooperation with the Imperial Medical Restaurant.

Although the restaurant specialized in dishes, its food mainly served to nourish the body, thus requiring a lot of herbal medicines.

As long as he cooperated with the Imperial Medical Restaurant, the sales of his herbs would increase significantly, bringing in substantial income.

After all, medicinal food could only be afforded by wealthy people, and it was more profitable than treating patients.

”Hmph, Su Tong old man, you might treat better than me, but when it comes to selling herbs, I don’t believe I can’t outsell you.” Hua Jingsong smirked and lay back down, shaking the recliner as he closed his eyes to rest.

...

”Young friend, how did you do it?” Inside Yunji Hall, Su Tong looked at Ye Guichen with excitement and eagerness: ”You seem to be knowledgeable in traditional medicine, right?”

Ye Guichen nodded: ”I came today to pick up those three herbs, coincidentally encountered this, it was just a minor trick.”

”Young friend, your words make me feel quite embarrassed.” Su Tong’s face reddened.

Though Ye Guichen said it was a minor trick, he almost caused a death and ruined his reputation.

”By the way, I apologize for being rude to you last time.” The better impression Su Tong had of Ye Guichen, remembering his previous assumption that Ye Guichen was causing trouble, he felt a deep sense of shame.

Ye Guichen was unconcerned, ”Mr. Su, I came for my medicine.”

”Oh, yes, yes, you see my excitement made me forget.” Su Tong patted his head and quickly asked Linglong: ”Girl, those three herbs...”

Linglong had evidently already prepared them, she took out three bags, handed them to Ye Guichen and smiled slightly: ”I’m Linglong, big brother, these are the three herbs you wanted for the snake lure, may I ask what you will use them for?”

Since Ye Guichen told her he needed those three herbs, Linglong researched extensively, trying to find out their use.

Despite going through all the family records, apart from some ancient texts mentioning these herbs, there were no details on their usage.

Occasionally, individual herbs were mentioned, but their uses were not significant.

Thus, Linglong grew increasingly curious about these herbs’ purpose, and looked forward to Ye Guichen coming to explain.

With Ye Guichen here, Linglong gazed at him with curious eyes.

Ye Guichen felt positively towards Linglong’s curiosity, ”Actually, I don’t mind telling you, these herbs are for a friend’s breakthrough.”

”Breakthrough?” Hearing this word, Su Tong was first stunned.

If ordinary people heard this, they wouldn’t understand, but Su Tong was shocked.

Being a third-rate martial artist himself, he knew the difficulty of progressing in martial arts.

It was only because his master was highly skilled in medicine and had connections with many strong individuals that he barely entered the field and surpassed human limits to become a third-rate martial artist.

But even so, Su Tong, at his old age, found it hard to make progress, likely remaining a third-rate martial artist for life.
