Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

Chu Qingning memorized everything and said, “Fifth Sister, can you let me take your pulse?”

Chu Qingzhi stretched out her hand. “Try it.”

Chu Qingning placed her hand on Chu Qingzhi’s pulse according to the standard finger technique and felt it carefully.

After taking Chu Qingzhi’s, she took Yuan Hongjun’s and Bao Linjiang’s.

“You’re all very healthy.”

Yuan Hongjun smiled and said, “The three of us are doctors. If we are sick, how can we treat others?”

Chu Qingning thought for a moment and said, “Didn’t they say that doctors don’t treat themselves?”

Bao Linjiang interrupted, “That’s for ordinary doctors. We’re not.”

Chu Qingning smiled and said, “You’re really confident.”

Bao Linjiang said, “We’re doctors. Confidence is basic. If you give people the feeling that you’re not even sure about what you are doing, who will dare to let you treat them?”

Chu Qingzhi agreed. “That’s very true.”

Chu Qingning thought about it and nodded slowly. “I understand.”

At this moment, footsteps sounded, followed by Li Qingyu’s words. “Qingning, Qingning…”

Chu Qingning stood up and walked towards the staircase. When she saw Li Qingyu, she asked, “Mother, what happened?”

Li Qingyu pulled Chu Qingning to a chair in the living room. “Just now, a matchmaker came to talk about marriage for you. She mentioned a family in the Xu village. That family has two sons. The older one is not smart, but the younger one is a young scholar. She wants to match you with the younger one. What do you think?”

The three of them did not speak and waited for Chu Qingning to speak first. After all, it was her marriage.

Chu Qingning had someone in her heart and was naturally unwilling. “Mother,

1 don’t want to marry.”

As soon as she said this, Yuan Hongjun and Bao Linjiang smiled meaningfully. Qingning had definitely taken a fancy to the Martial Top Scorer.

Chu Qingning glared at the two of them.

Li Qingyu said solemnly, “Qingning, you’re almost 17 years old. You have to consider your marriage.”

Chu Qingning was very insistent. “Mother, 1 know you’re doing this for my own good, but I really don’t want to marry.”

Li Qingyu did not force her second daughter back then, so she naturally would not force her fourth daughter now. “Alright then. I’ll reply to Matchmaker Xu like this.”

Chu Qingning hugged Li Qingyu. “Mother, thank you for understanding me.”

Li Qingyu patted Chu Qingning’s head dotingly. “You’re already a big girl, yet you’re still acting like a child.”

Chu Qingning said, “Even if I become a grandmother in the future, I’m still your daughter.”

Li Qingyu was amused.

Everyone was supportive of Chu Qingning’s decision. If she married into that family, she would have to take care of her silly brother-in-law for the rest of her life. Just thinking about it made her feel suffocated.

Chu Qingyan ran upstairs to look for Chu Qingzhi. “Fifth Sister, Fifth Sister, there’s an extremely good-looking big brother outside.”

“Huh?” Chu Qingzhi scanned the area with her divine sense. It was an acquaintance. She curled her lips and stood up to walk downstairs.

In a white robe, Tan Xueqing looked as beautiful as a flower, but he was not feminine. His face had the chiseled features of a man.

At this moment, he was sitting on a chair in the central room and drinking a cup of tea. He was elegant and calm, and his every move was very pleasing to the eye.

When he saw Chu Qingzhi, he hurriedly put down his teacup and stood up to bow. “Greetings, Miss Chu.”

Chu Qingzhi sized up Tan Xueqing. Even in men’s clothes, he was still so beautiful. “Young Master Tan, please sit.”

Tan Xueqing smiled and sat back in his seat. “Miss Chu, I’ve already changed my name to Tan Mengyang. Miss Chu, you can call me Mengyang.”

Chu Qingzhi smiled. “Okay.”

Tan Mengyang cut to the chase, “I’m here to look for Miss Chu to discuss a business deal regarding the Mid-Autumn Festival. Miss Chu, are you interested?”

Chu Qingzhi nodded. “Go ahead.”

Tan Mengyang put on a serious expression. “Miss Chu, I know you are very innovative, so I want you to help me design a few mooncakes. Nowadays, there are only a few types of mooncakes sold in the county. They lack variety and novelty. It’s expensive and doesn’t taste good. If it weren’t for the sake of the festival, I don’t think anyone would buy them.”

Chu Qingzhi agreed. “What a coincidence. I also plan to make some mooncakes to sell. Now that the ingredients have been prepared, I might not be able to help Young Master Tan.”

Tan Mengyang was delighted. “Miss Chu, how many types of mooncakes do you plan to make?”

Chu Qingzhi said, “Five.”

Tan Mengyang said in a negotiating tone, “Miss Chu, give two of them to my workshop. I’ll make 20,000 pieces each for you as a payment for the recipe. How about this?”

This person was really good at doing business. He was far-sighted…

Chu Qingzhi smiled and said, “Sure. Let’s sign the contract first. Then, I’ll write down the recipe for you. When you get home, get someone to make it immediately. Then, send it over to me and let me see if it’s up to my standard.”

Tan Mengyang said enthusiastically, “Okay.”

The two of them immediately signed the contract. Then, Chu Qingzhi wrote down the recipes to make the Five-Kernel Mooncake and Minced-Pork Mooncake for him. “Young Master Tan, let’s hope our cooperation will be a success.”

Tan Mengyang smiled and said, “I won’t disappoint you.” He had really made the right decision to come looking for Chu Qingzhi today.

Chu Qingzhi sent Tan Mengyang out.

Chu Qingzhi came to the forest and went a little deeper. Her mount, a white tiger, ran over and whimpered, as if to say, “Why didn’t you look for me for so long?”

Chu Qingzhi smiled and patted the white tiger’s head. Then, she sat on its back. “Let’s go find the red sandalwood.”

The white tiger turned around and looked at Chu Qingzhi, as if to say, “Okay.” Then, it carried Chu Qingzhi and shuttled through the forest. In the end, it found a huge red sandalwood. Chu Qingzhi could not carry it alone.

She got off the tiger’s back and cast a spell to cut off a branch that was thicker than a thigh on the side of the red sandalwood. Then, she cast a spell to make molds.

It took her two hours to make a hundred molds.

She would bring twenty-five of them out in a while and bring the rest out a few days later to prevent everyone from being suspicious.

Chu Qingzhi weaved a basket with the nearby vines and threw 25 molds in. Then, she rode the white tiger and rushed out of the forest.

The wind blew gently, and Chu Qingzhi’s silk-like black hair fluttered in the wind. In the depths of the forest, she was the only person and looked especially like an otherworldly hermit who had come out to pick wild fruits..
