I Became a Medical Genius in the 80s

Chapter 729: Chapter 728: Vassal Family

When Beisitian woke up, Wei Zhongxun was already standing at the villa door.

”Oh my master, you actually have such an estate. How about gifting it to me as a dowry?” Wei Zhongxun laughed cheekily.

Beisitian blinked, still a bit dazed, and gave Wei Zhongxun a cool glance upon hearing his words, ”You want to get married so much, I’ll find someone for you.”

Wei Zhongxun mischievously approached, circling around Beisitian twice, ”Master, haven’t you noticed anything different about me?”

Beisitian raised an eyebrow, ”Got a haircut?”

”No.”

”Didn’t shave?”

”No...”

”Ah, you’ve got new shoes on.”

”No!”

”Then... is that jacket newly bought?”

”Mas!ter!”

Just as Wei Zhongxun stared at Beisitian with a sulky expression, Tian Zhi came down from upstairs, looking at Wei Zhongxun with a face full of surprise.

”Brother Xun, you did it!”

Wei Zhongxun gave Beisitian a resentful glance, then turned to Tian Zhi with a big grin, ”Little Zhizhi has good taste!”

Little Zhizhi...

Tian Zhi’s mouth twitched, every time he was called that, it felt like being called an idiot.

Jiang Mingzhong and Jiang Xin were coming downstairs and heard Tian Zhi’s words. Jiang Mingzhong didn’t feel surprised; from Beisitian’s demeanor at that time, she was sure this disciple could break through.

Wei Zhongxun saw the two of them and put away his playful look, saying, ”This is Elder Jiang, right? Welcome to Qingyu School, I’m the senior disciple!”

Jiang Mingzhong: ”...”

Tian Zhi rubbed his forehead and said to Jiang Mingzhong, ”Elder Jiang, there’s no need to pay attention to him. He was mentally stimulated when he was young.” He pointed to the head position as he spoke.

Wei Zhongxun squinted, ”Three days without discipline, someone gets unruly. I, the senior disciple, neglected you for a short time and here you are, so impertinent.”

Tian Zhi laughed, ”Senior disciple? We both apprenticed together, and I broke through before you. Who’s really the senior?”

”Oh ho, you’re not convinced, eh? I can integrate with seventy-seven kinds of medicinal herbs upon breaking through, can you?”

Tian Zhi’s face darkened, feeling disheartened, ”Aren’t you embarrassed to compare with me? Not only are you older, but you’ve been a Mystic Doctor for years. Is seventy-seven kinds really impressive? Give me some time, I’ll surpass you in no time!”

Jiang Mingzhong: ”...”

Looks like Tian Zhi and Wei Zhongxun have a good relationship.

Speaking of which, are all Qingyu members such prodigies? Breaking through involves seventy-seven... Jiang Mingzhong feels that in front of these people, any self-confidence can be shattered to pieces.

Luckily, he didn’t rely on Mystic Doctor methods to stay in Qingyu, otherwise, he’d quickly lose his confidence.

Beisitian finally woke up fully from her semi-awake state, glanced at Wei Zhongxun and said, ”Now that’s some style.”

Wei Zhongxun heard this and wagged his metaphorical tail vigorously, making Tian Zhi look at him with disgust.

Afterwards, Beisitian formally introduced everyone to Jiang Mingzhong and company. Apart from Little Yu Zhu, all other members of Qingyu School were gathered.

”How’s Little Yu Zhu’s progress?” Beisitian asked.

”The little girl is sharp, master’s assigned tasks have been completed, and now she’s progressing on her own,” Wei Zhongxun replied.

Little Yu Zhu is very diligent; she knows she’s not among the brightest in Qingyu School. Other senior disciples have also drunk the talismanic water she drank before, so she doesn’t slack off at all.

Upon hearing this, Beisitian felt gratified and said, ”Alright, Xiao Zhi and Jiang Xin, go buy breakfast. We don’t have any servants here, so we have to do it ourselves. Zhongxun, follow me.”

Tian Zhi and Jiang Xin went out together, while Jiang Mingzhong went to the yard for some morning exercise. As one gets older, exercise is more important than eating something good every day.

Upon entering Beisitian’s room, Wei Zhongxun knew what she wanted to ask and pulled out the palm-sized jade plate from his bag to hand over to Beisitian.

”Master, is this what you wanted?”

Beisitian gently rubbed the jade plate and nodded, ”Seems like it should be part of a set.”

Wei Zhongxun asked, ”Master, have you found the components? When you first brought it back, I thought there should be other parts; could it really be so coincidental?”

Beisitian looked up and smiled, ”Maybe I really found them. There might be an even bigger surprise.”

This jade plate belonged to Beidewang. What Qin Xinyu holds in his hand can combine with Beidewang’s jade plate, indicating there’s certainly a connection between Qin Xinyu and Beidewang or the Bei Family!

”Master found two components?” Wei Zhongxun observed the two connecting yin-yang fish on the plate.

Beisitian wasn’t sure how many Qin Xinyu had in his possession; that could only be answered by asking him directly.

”Come with me later.” Beisitian said.

Wei Zhongxun nodded immediately.

After a short while, Tian Zhi came back with breakfast: buns, fried sticks, soy milk, and tofu pudding—all kinds available. Take what you want.

Everyone almost unanimously waited for Beisitian to take the first bite, a sign of respect for her.

After breakfast, Jiang Mingzhong continued visiting relatives, Tian Zhi took Jiang Xin out with him, and Beisitian asked him to acquaint Jiang Xin further.

Beisitian then took Wei Zhongxun to Qin Xinyu’s place.

Qin Xinyu was currently contemplating how he might see Beisitian again, feeling there was still a glimmer of hope, when she unexpectedly came knocking.

”Doctor Bei, what’s your reason for visiting this time?” Qin Xinyu asked with a hint of confusion in his eyes.

Beisitian wasted no words, took the jade plate from her bag, and said to Qin Xinyu, ”I presume this is not unfamiliar to you.”

Upon seeing that jade plate, Qin Xinyu’s eyes widened suddenly, and he murmured, ”Double Fish Jade Plate!”

Beisitian raised an eyebrow; he indeed recognized it!

Without needing Beisitian to say anything, Qin Xinyu took out the jade pendant from his clothes, untied the string, and gently embedded it into one of the grooves.

Perfect fit!

”You truly are... Bei family’s descendant!” Qin Xinyu looked at Beisitian with considerable excitement.

Upon hearing this, Beisitian’s expression became intense, ”You know about the Bei Family?”

”I know a part. Our family has specific records, in addition to its own history, it also records the main family’s history.”

Main family?

Qin Xinyu stood solemnly and then bowed ninety degrees to Beisitian, respectfully saying, ”Qin Family’s thirty-sixth generation, Qin Xinyu, has finally found the main family!”

Wei Zhongxun looked solemn as well; only large families tended to have subordinate families. Could it be that the Bei Family was a large family in the past?

Subordinate families used to be equivalent to family retainers, an upper and lower hierarchy.

Beisitian was somewhat surprised yet felt it was within expectations—surprised that the Bei Family was actually a large family, but expected since she had vaguely suspected this upon seeing the jade plate and pendant.

”Tell me about the situation first.” Beisitian said.
