My Silly, Sweet Wife

For Su Tong and Mai Gu, before they met Ye Guichen, they had pinned all their hopes on Linglong.

Linglong was an orphan, accidentally adopted by the two, and they were overjoyed to find that Linglong had a strong talent for medicine.

The two old men had lived most of their lives and didn’t dare to claim expertise in medicine.

However, Linglong was the type who could grasp things immediately and understand them at a glance.

Especially when reading medical books, she almost didn’t need others to guide her and comprehended everything on her own.

To them, she was like a treasure found.

So, they nurtured her even more.

Initially, Su Tong was afraid Linglong would be tainted by Mai Gu’s mercenary ways, so he took her to Yun City to give her a quiet environment to practice medicine.

After an incident in Qinghe, Su Tong reassessed Mai Gu, released his inner grudges, and naturally brought Mai Gu back to see Linglong.

Linglong also knew that her two grandpas cared for her deeply, feeling happy every time she saw them bicker.

But everyone knew that Linglong’s legs were their biggest worry.

Linglong never mentioned it, and her forced smiles made Su Tong and Mai Gu heartbroken.

The two of them tried many methods, even seeking famous doctors abroad, but to no avail.

Now, Ye Guichen said he could treat her.

How could they not be astonished?

Ye Guichen ignored their astonishment and explained, ”My master always said that there are no diseases in the world that cannot be cured; it’s just that the right method hasn’t been found. He even mentioned that reviving the dead and regenerating bones might not be just a legend but could be real. However, reaching that level would require extremely high medical skills.”

”So, after seeing Shimei’s (Junior Sister’s) legs, I thought of many methods. I originally thought I would need to go to the Miao regions to find herbs that could activate nerves. But this time, I accidentally obtained a Ghost Kiss Grass and the flesh of a giant python. I believe using these will undoubtedly heal Shimei’s legs.”

”Ghost Kiss Grass?” Upon hearing the name, Su Tong and the others showed expressions of shock.

”Isn’t that the herb that grows in places with heavy yin energy and is even more toxic than the Broken Intestine Grass?”

Ye Guichen nodded, ”Yes! That’s why it can reconstruct Shimei’s leg nerves. Because Shimei’s leg nerves are now dormant, nearly necrotic, and no matter what means you use to stimulate them, it’s useless. But this toxic substance can do it.”

”Exactly, Senior Brother has studied toxicology all his life, but no matter how toxic, nothing in his hands kills. Instead, it saves lives!” A word woke the dreamer.

Su Tong suddenly clapped his forehead, ”That’s right! Senior Brother’s belief is that there is no inherent poison in the world; the most poisonous is the human heart!”

”Alright, alright, Sect Leader, get to work, hurry.” The two old men were already eager.

Ye Guichen didn’t hold back and started giving instructions to the two.

He took a piece of snake tailbone and ground it into powder.

Then, he separately took a leaf and a fruit of the Ghost Kiss Grass, ground them similarly, and mixed them with the snake tailbone.

Ye Guichen himself gently scraped Linglong’s legs with snake scales, and when her legs were reddened, he cut the snake flesh into thin slices, almost like paper, and applied them to her legs.

They worked tirelessly for half a day.

Once the medicine made from the snake tailbone and Ghost Kiss Grass, mixed with other herbs, was ready, they watched Linglong drink it.

Ye Guichen and the two old men stared nervously at Linglong.

This was a treatment plan Ye Guichen had carefully thought out.

He believed that as long as they persisted for a week, Linglong could definitely stand up again.

”How is it, girl? Do you feel anything?” Su Tong asked impatiently after Linglong drank the medicine.

Linglong shook her head, ”Besides feeling some warmth in my stomach, it seems there’s no other sensation.”

”No sensation?” Ye Guichen was puzzled, ”How could that be? Under the stimulation of the Ghost Kiss Grass, although it might not make you stand immediately, your legs should feel something.”

As he spoke, Ye Guichen lightly tapped Linglong’s knee.

In the next second, Linglong’s lower leg bounced forward.

Knee reflex.

”Look, look! Linglong’s legs are really moving.” Although Linglong didn’t feel it, there was a distinct tingling sensation with the tap.

She hurriedly grabbed her lower leg.

Her eyes reddened instantly.

”Senior Brother, I, I can feel pain!”

At that moment, Linglong felt the long-lost pain, and tears uncontrollably streamed down her face.

Tears of joy!

Upon hearing this, Ye Guichen also let out a long breath, ”Great! That’s fantastic!”

Su Tong and Mai Gu hugged each other tightly, crying out loud.

...

After leaving the Ghost Kiss Grass and the remaining materials, and instructing Su Tong and Mai Gu on the daily treatment plan, Ye Guichen didn’t linger and returned to the Medicinal Food Restaurant.

Next time he saw Linglong, he was sure she would be able to stand.

Seeing how excited Linglong and Su Tong were, Ye Guichen didn’t stay longer, fearing he couldn’t hold back his tears either.

However, before he reached the Medicinal Food Restaurant, Ye Guichen heard Zhao Erdan and Huang Mao bragging at the door.

Huang Mao: ”Brother Zhao, you didn’t see it this morning. Mr. Chen personally brought a beautiful woman, saying she would keep an eye on our Boss Ye.”

”What do you mean?”

”Hehe, our Boss Ye’s romantic luck is unbeatable. The beauties around him are all top-notch. That figure, tsk tsk...”

”Isn’t it true that our Boss Ye’s charm is endless? This morning, I heard Su Jiu’er muttering about why Boss Ye hasn’t come yet. Seems like she misses him after just a night.”

”Indeed, compared to others, Boss Ye’s beauties could make anyone jealous. Yet Boss Ye enjoys countless flowers, and Mr. Chen, as his fiancée, doesn’t get jealous and even helps him find more. Tsk tsk, any man would envy that.”

Listening to Huang Mao’s boasting, Zhao Erdan also looked envious, nodding repeatedly, so engrossed that he didn’t notice Ye Guichen was behind him.

Huang Mao and Zhao Erdan were squatting face to face when they suddenly felt a strong killing intent. They looked up, and their faces turned pale.

Seeing Huang Mao stop talking, Zhao Erdan urged, ”Keep talking, what else did Mr. Chen say this morning?”

”Um...”

”What ’um’? Hurry up! That stunning beauty inside wouldn’t be Mr. Chen’s gift for Boss Ye, would she?” Zhao Erdan glanced inside the Medicinal Food Restaurant.

There, at a corner table, sat a beautiful woman.

”Brother Zhao, stop, stop,” Huang Mao kept gesturing frantically, his face turning pale, ”Boss Ye, Boss Ye is right behind you.”

”Huang Mao, stop scaring me. Boss Ye is probably enjoying himself somewhere and can’t possibly be at the restaurant,” Zhao Erdan dismissed, not believing Huang Mao.

But just as he finished speaking, he heard a voice that made his hair stand on end, ”You two seem quite idle!”
