“He should be at Chu Qingzhi’s house now. I’ll look for him later. What an unfilial son. He doesn’t even know that he should pay me a visit the first thing he comes back.”

Zhang Xiuqin urged, “That’s right. If we don’t take advantage of this opportunity to gain some benefits while we can, we’ll be even more distant in the future, and it’ll be harder to get anything out of him.”

Tang Shan nodded. “You’re right. 1’11 try my best to get Tang Jinghong to agree.”

“Tang Shan, if you can convince him this time, I won’t nag you in the future.” Zhang Xiuqin couldn’t help but imagine Tang Dengping as an official.

Tang Dengping originally did not have any thoughts, but after hearing their words, he was tempted. He could not help but imagine how he would look when he walked majestically in the village in his official suit.

“Master, you’re the person 1 admire the most in my life.” Bao Linjiang looked at the snow lotus in Chu Qingzhi’s hand. His admiration was overflowing.

Chu Qingzhi was amused by Bao Linjiang’s exaggerated reaction. As she walked towards the herb garden, she said, “1 picked this snow lotus from the Heavenly Snow Mountain in the northern border. I planned to use it to nourish Jinghong’s body, but I still lack some herbs now…”

Yuan Hongjun said, “Master, what herbs are you lacking? I’ll write a letter back to the capital immediately and get my family to send them over.”

Chu Qingzhi said, “Salvia miltiorrhiza, magnolia bark, and fritillaria cirrhosa.”

These herbs were all precious and difficult to find. In fact, they could be replaced by other herbs, but the medicinal effect of the snow lotus would be greatly reduced.

Bao Linjiang turned around and said enthusiastically, “Master, I’ll help find them too.”

Chu Qingzhi nodded. “Thank you.”

After the two of them returned to the military camp, they immediately sent a letter to their families and friends who worked in the herb industry, asking them to help gather these herbs.

“Master is always so polite, even to us,” Bao Linjiang said.

Yuan Hongjun placed his arm on Bao Linjiang’s shoulder. “Little Abalone, Master is not like you. She is a talented and knowledgeable woman who values etiquette. What does a boor like you know?”

“Who are you calling a boor?” Bao Linjiang reached out his claws to Yuan Hongjun’s waist and pinched the soft flesh.

“Ouch—”

Yuan Hongjun slapped Bao Linjiang’s hand and quickly jumped away. “You’re ruthless!”

“Hmph…” Bao Linjiang snorted and ran after Chu Qingzhi. He asked curiously, “Master, why do you know so many things?”

Chu Qingzhi pointed at her head. “I have a photographic memory.”

The two disciples were speechless.

It turned out that their master was a genius. No wonder she was so capable!

Tang Jinghong followed behind. As he listened to the three of them, his gaze involuntarily landed on Chu Qingzhi’s head. He secretly praised her for not only being smart but also having a photographic memory. And the person this woman liked was him. He could not help but smile smugly. Yes, he was quite proud and lucky!

When she arrived at the herb garden, Chu Qingzhi was surprised to find that the 3 acres of herb garden was filled with herbs… When she left, only one acre was planted with herbs.

She turned around and looked at her two disciples with admiration. “Did you plant the herbs?”

Yuan Hongjun said, “We did it together with Qingning.”

Chu Qingning’s voice came from afar. “Are you guys calling me?”

Yuan Hongjun looked over and replied loudly, “We’re talking about the herb garden.”

“Oh.” Chu Qingning ran over. “Fifth Sister, the three of us planted the herbs together. I just don’t know why. We planted it the same way you did, but it doesn’t grow as well as yours.”

The acre of herbs that Chu Qingzhi planted all grew luxuriantly. The ones the three of them planted were also good, but they paled in comparison, like the difference between a strong man and a skinny man.

Chu Qingzhi said casually, “The herbs might like me better.” She found a spot and planted the snow lotus.

Chu Qingning looked at the snow lotus that was still full of vitality and praised, “Why do 1 have such a powerful sister?!”

Chu Qingzhi said jokingly, “Fourth Sister, you are making me shy.”

Chu Qingning smiled. “Fifth Sister, you’re so cute.”

Chu Qingzhi suddenly looked at Chu Qingning and asked with interest, “Fourth Sister, 1 heard that you’re very close to someone from Yunfei School?”

Chu Qingning blushed and said softly, “Fifth Sister, what are you talking about?”

“I know…” Yuan Hongjun had already become good friends with Chu Qingning and knew one thing or two about what was going on.

Chu Qingzhi asked, “What happened?”

Yuan Hongjun said, “The Emperor thinks very highly of the top scorer of the martial arts competition this year, but he thinks that the top scorer is a little undereducated in terms of literature. Therefore, the Emperor sent him to Yunfei School and asked him to learn more about literature to become an all-round talent.”

“Life in the school was boring. The top scorer invited a group of friends to go hunting. In the end, he was not very lucky and encountered a bear. In the end, he was injured, but it wasn’t life threatening.”

“Coincidentally, Chu Laipi and Chu Peipei were picking bamboo leaves in the forest and brought them out of the mountain to Master’s house. At that time, Little Abalone and I were in the military camp and weren’t in the Chu Village. It was Qingning who treated his wound.”

“I don’t know what happened to Martial Arts Top Scorer, but later on, he kept asking Qingning to change his dressing and treat him. After a few back and forths, they got to know each other.”

Chu Qingzhi patted Chu Qingning’s shoulder and teased, “Martial Arts Top Scholar, not bad.”

Chu Qingning’s face was all red. She lowered her head and whispered, “Fifth Sister, we’re not there yet. Don’t make fun of me.”

Bao Linjiang also teased, “Qingning, don’t be shy. We all think you are a good match.”

Yuan Hongjun echoed, “That’s right. The Top Scorer looks tall and handsome. He’s quite compatible with you.”

Chu Qingning pointed at Yuan Hongjun and Bao Linjiang with a red face. “You’re still a bachelor. You should worry about yourself, not me.”

“Fate hasn’t sent me my other half.” Yuan Hongjun pretended to be emotional and said, “I’ve been traveling all these years, but 1 haven’t met anyone who can move my heart. What can 1 do?”

Moreover, his standards had increased. He didn’t know if the Dating Dynasty still had a beautiful and powerful girl like his master.

Probably not.

Bao Linjiang agreed. “Me too. I’ve been locked up in the capital all my life. Although my family has shown me many portraits of girls to let me choose, what can one portrait tell about a girl? I’m not marrying a portrait.”

Yuan Hongjun wouldn’t miss the opportunity to tease Bao Linjiang. He dragged out his tone. “Little Abalone, you surprised me. I didn’t expect that you have already started blind dating.”

Bao Linjiang snorted. “What’s so strange about that? Isn’t it normal for everyone to go on blind dates at the age of 15 and wait for two to three years to get married?”

Chu Qingning couldn’t help but interrupt, “I think you guys don’t know how lucky you are.. Others can’t marry you even if they want to!”
