Su Liang wrote a letter to Yang Yu before bedtime, which would be given to the manager of Yonglong Embroidery Workshop tomorrow, asking him to arrange for someone to send it to the Yang Family.

A quiet night passed.

Early the next morning, the Lin Family Brothers got up and went out, only to see Lin Shuzhi in white clothes practicing Tai Chi in the courtyard, his every move exhibiting elegance.

Lin Xueqing had mentioned Tai Chi the night before, but this was the first time the two brothers had seen it.

After watching for a while, Lin Boyan felt that although the movements were slow, they contained a gentle yet tenacious strength.

Lin Bojun, however, was eager to give it a try, “Let me give this set of boxing a try!”

Lin Boyan quickly stopped his younger brother from going over to exchange martial tips with Lin Shuzhi, “Little sister said that this is for strengthening the body.”

After completing the Tai Chi routine, Lin Shuzhi looked relaxed, smiling at his two sons, “We’re setting off today and can’t spare any time. When we get to the capital city, I’ll teach you. Old big brother, you’re especially weak.”

Lin Bojun burst into laughter and slapped Lin Boyan on the shoulder, “Big brother, you’re not even as good as our father now, let alone our little sister! I’ve heard that Xiaoliang taught her a lot of tricks! I need to learn from her when we get back!”

Lin Boyan smiled, “I did see our little sister look much better yesterday. I’m willing to learn this set of boxing from our father.”

At this moment, Su Liang and Lin Xueqing were preparing breakfast after their morning exercise.

The three had returned late last night, and only they had a late-night snack. This was the first time the six of them ate together, and they would part ways after the meal.

“Big brother, second brother, try my cooking and guess which dishes are mine?” Lin Xueqing said expectantly.

The two brothers had long experienced their sister’s culinary skills, which were not very tasty. However, they always complimented her cooking out of love.

After tasting the breakfast this time, they found all the dishes delicious.

Lin Bojun looked shocked, “It’s all so tasty! None of these were made by Xiaoliang, right?”

Lin Xueqing felt extremely validated by her brother’s comment, which made her feel that her cooking skills had improved rapidly. She happily revealed that half of the dishes had been made by her.

Lin Boyan sincerely praised, “Little sister’s cooking skills have improved enormously.”

Lin Bojun directly affirmed Su Liang and Lin Xueqing’s culinary skills with his appetite.

“Xiaoliang has taught me how to cook a lot of dishes, and even gave me her exclusive recipe book! When we get to the capital city, I’ll cook for my big and second brother every day!” Lin Xueqing gave all the credit for her progress to Su Liang.

Lin Shuzhi coughed lightly, “What will your father eat?”

Lin Xueqing giggled, “I’ll just cook my father’s favorite dishes, whether my big and second brothers like it or not.”

Lin Shuzhi nodded, “Alright.”

After their harmonious breakfast, it was time to part ways.

The decision to go to the capital city wasn’t made abruptly when Lin Boyan and Lin Bojun returned home; Lin Shuzhi and Lin Xueqing had been preparing for it early on.

Although Ning Jing said he had hired a master to secretly protect them on their journey, he didn’t reveal the master’s identity, nor did he allow them to meet.

The Lin family didn’t pry, knowing that some masters could be temperamental. They trusted that Ning Jing’s arrangements would work out.

Originally, Lin Xueqing and Su Liang laughed and promised to meet in the capital city after the New Year, but when the time came to part ways, Lin Xueqing hugged Su Liang, her eyes welling up with tears, “Sister Su, I really don’t want you to leave.”

Su Liang patted Lin Xueqing’s back, “If you keep crying, you’ll become ugly.”

“I wasn’t as pretty as you to begin with.” Lin Xueqing said, unable to hold back a laugh. She let go of Su Liang, her eyes glistening with tears, and said earnestly, “After the New Year, you must come to the capital city to find me!”

Su Liang nodded, “Don’t worry, we will.”

T.in Sh117.hi came over. looked at Ning Ting. and sighed. “No matter where von

are or what you do, you must take good care of Xiaoliang. See you in the capital city next year!”

Ning Jing nodded slightly, “Take care, Master.”

“Xueqing.” Lin Shuzhi called her several times before Lin Xueqing reluctantly let go of Su Liang, turning back every three steps, waving at her.

Ning Jing and Su Liang stood inside the Lin family’s gate, watching as Lin Xueqing was helped onto the carriage by Lin Bojun.

There was another big carriage behind, carrying Lin Shuzhi and Lin Xueqing’s luggage. They were going to the capital city for a long stay, and they needed to bring many things, including several large boxes just for Lin Shuzhi’s books.

In addition to the smoke gauze, Su Liang also gave Lin Xueqing two other top-quality fabrics to make new clothes when they arrive in the capital city. All of them were new products from the Yonglong Embroidery Workshop, available in the capital city, but only in limited quantities for sale.

There were also two more pieces of good fabric, one for Lin Shuzhi and the other for the Lin family brothers.

Lin Bojun drove the carriage, and the three of them sat inside, lifting the curtain to look back at Su Liang and Ning Jing, waving goodbye to them.

The carriage slowly started moving, leaving the entrance of the Lin family’s mansion.

After the gates closed, Su Liang and Ning Jing, with their belongings, secretly left from the back door and returned to the mansion they bought after arriving in Pingbei City. Ning Jing had already brought the horses there last night.

Upon opening the courtyard door, Su Liang saw a wooden box placed on a table in the yard.

Ning Jing had returned last night, and it must have been him who placed the box. Su Liang didn’t ask, but just walked over and opened it, only to be dazzled momentarily.

The box was filled with gold ingots, and a wooden box was sandwiched in the middle of them. Inside it was a thick stack of high-value silver notes.

“You’ve been playing Robin Hood again,” Su Liang thought. “Did you steal from the magistrate’s small treasury in Pingbei City?”

Ning Jing nodded, indicating that she hadn’t guessed wrong.

The magistrate of Pingbei City was extremely corrupt, and the money Ning Jing brought back last night was just a small part of it. After Lin Shuzhi arrived in the capital city, he would report the corruption in Pingbei City to the court.

The reason for going to the magistrate’s house last night was that Ning Jing, the head of the Ning family, had forgotten to take more money when he left Xunyang City, and they had spent a lot of money in Pingbei City. The wallet was running thin, so they needed to replenish it.

“This is so heavy, not easy to carry.” Su Liang took out the silver notes, thinking that the box of gold was too cumbersome.

“Put it under the bed for future use,” Ning Jing said.

Su Liang, dressed as a man and wearing a straw hat, drove away from Pingbei City where she had lived for nearly a month. Her letter to Yang Yu had already been sent to Yonglong Embroidery Workshop.

Ning Jing had gone to Xunyang City and come back, not having rested for several days, and now fell asleep in the carriage.

The two planned to visit Zhengzheng at the Wan family first, and then return to Bei’an County.

At best, it would take eight or nine days to travel from Pingbei City to Qingyang City, where the Wan family lived.

During the journey, the two took turns driving the carriage during the day and stayed in inns at night. It was winter, and the temperature was low at night, making it impossible to stay outdoors.

There was even more silence between the two than when they were on their way here, each doing their own thing. At times, even when they were together, they didn’t feel like talking. At least Zhengzheng was there when they were on their wav here. making it a bit more lively.

Three days later, during an evening at an inn, Su Liang brought up the Lin family people while they were eating dinner. She casually said, “They always want to match us up, but we’re really not suitable for each other, as we have nothing to talk about.”

Ning Jing nodded, but rebutted Su Liang’s words. “At first, you didn’t know anything about this side, so I told you everything. After that, you promised to teach me about your side and teach me different languages, characters, and things that you know but I don’t. But you’ve been busy, and when you’re free, you’re always reading, so I haven’t asked you to fulfill your promise yet. If you want to talk, of course, you can.”

With an embarrassed expression, Su Liang asked, “Are you sure you want me to start teaching you now?”

Ning Jing’s face was indifferent. “It’s you who don’t have time for me, and you’re not used to being too quiet.”

Su Liang held her forehead, “Boss, I was wrong. What do you want to learn first?”

“Acupuncture,” Ning Jing said.

Su Liang was taken aback and asked, “Why do you want to learn this first?”

Ning Jing replied calmly, “To avoid situations where you have to treat someone, and since you’ve seen their body, they demand that you take responsibility. And to prevent cases similar to the poisoning at the academy, where you’d be solely responsible for too many lives. You’d be exhausted and still unable to save everyone.”

As a female doctor, there were many inconveniences when treating male patients.

Su Liang’s medical practice was based on her past life’s mindset and didn’t care about it. However, others, including the patients themselves, wouldn’t treat her as a male doctor.

Recalling the fatigue from the night of the poisoning incident in the academy, Su Liang still felt apprehensive about it now.

And Ning Jing had long expressed interest in medical skills; it’s just that Su Liang hadn’t had time to teach him.

With a serious tone, Su Liang said, “Thank you for your concern.. I’ll start by teaching you this then!”
