After signing the official contract with One Side Sky Pharmacy, the matter of purchasing medicinal herbs for the treatment of roundworms was also handed over to One Side Sky Pharmacy. This time, it was truly a large-scale purchase. The villagers of Song family village and the neighboring fvillages were all beaming with joy. There were many things to do on the mountain, and they had an additional way to make money. These were all brought by Ding Yao.
The sugar pills in Ding Yao’s hands were all sold at a discount to One Side Sky Pharmacy. Soon after, she posted a notice at the door saying that those who wanted to treat roundworms could go to One Side Sky Pharmacy to buy them at the same price.
The process of making the sugar pills was very simple, and the herbs were ready-made. In just one day, the sugar pills from One Side Sky Pharmacy could be sold in large quantities. In a few days, the sugar pills could be shipped to other branches, Ding Yao was in a very good mood because she could receive a considerable bonus after a month. Her words became more and more coherent, so she discussed with Song Xiuyan whether she could cut her daily writing task in half. In other words, she wanted to learn it every other day.
Song Xiuyan agreed to Ding Yao’s request easily, but he asked her to learn martial arts with him. The reason he gave was that only with martial arts could he ensure his personal safety. Moreover, he found that Ding Yao was as light as a swallow. She was a good candidate for learning martial arts.
Ding Yao was a little speechless. Did Song Xiuyan want to be her master after becoming her teacher? She looked at Song Xiuyan and asked, “Aren’t ordinary martial arts manuals not allowed to be passed on to outsiders?”
Song Xiuyan replied, “You’re not an outsider.”
Alright, forget it. Ding Yao thought about it and felt that what Song Xiuyan said made sense. Although she had all kinds of weapons in her herbal field space, it was undoubtedly better to have martial arts with her. Learning martial arts wasn’t as simple as learning to write. Just the simple horse stance alone was unbearable. After half an hour, her back was aching. Song Xiuyan usually doted on Ding Yao, but after becoming a martial arts master, he was stern and ruthless, like a different person.
Every morning, Song Xiuyan held a stick in his hand and wandered between Ding Yao and Song Yu and Song Xue. He would correct anyone who performed the horse stance incorrectly. Ding Yao was a big girl. In order to avoid being punished by Song Xiuyan, she could only perform the horse stance earnestly and meticulously. Fortunately, she was nourished by the spirit spring water. The spirit spring water could change a person’s physique, and learning martial arts would be twice the result with half the effort.
During this period of time, although Ding Yao didn’t cook, she would enter the kitchen every day. She would either add the spirit spring water to the rice or add it to the cooked dishes. Therefore, the physique of the Song family members was quietly changing. Song Xiuyan was the first to notice the abnormality. Then, it was Song Yu and Song Xue. They were surprised to tell Song Xiuyan that during this period of time, their internal energy had improved by leaps and bounds. Song Xiuyan explained that they had been eating well recently and that their nutrition had caught up.
That afternoon, Ding Yao and the others were eating when Ah Jie rushed over. “Ding Yao, your stepmother, Wang Hongxia, has brought five men with her. They are here with sticks in their hands!”
When Song Xue heard that, she rushed over to close the door. Ding Yao stopped her. “It’s okay, you don’t have to close it.” If Wang Hongxia dared to make a scene, she wouldn’t be polite to her anymore. However, to her surprise, Wang Hongxia directly brought her people to Zhao Caiyun’s house. When they arrived at Zhao Caiyun’s house, Wang Hongxia cursed loudly, “You two b*tches! The b*tch mother gave birth to a b*tch daughter who specialized in doing b*tchy things! She did it, but she didn’t dare to admit it! Put the blame on my head. Get the hell out here! Tell me clearly!”
At noon, most of the villagers were resting at home. When they heard the commotion, they came out to see what was going on. Not long after, there were many people surrounding the entrance of Zhao Caiyun’s house.
Zhao Dashan held a thick iron rod and stood at the entrance of his house with a livid expression. No matter what his mother and sister did, they wouldn’t let anyone bully them.
Wang Hongxia continued to curse, “Do you two b*tches have ulterior motives? You’ve done something despicable, but why did you say that I was the one who instigated it? I’m just a stepmother. It’s already an awkward position, but you’re still slandering me like this. How am I supposed to hold my head up in the future? Everyone in our village doesn’t know the truth and spits at me every day! Everywhere I go, people point fingers at me!”
Seeing the person beside Wang Hongxia, Ding Yao had some impression that it was someone from Wang Hongxia’s family.
Zhao Dashan’s father also came out and stood beside Zhao Dashan. He pointed at Wang Hongxia and said, “What do you want now? Do you want to fight?”
