At the thought of this, Min Nan felt a sharp pain in his heart.
“Go fetch her back,” Sun Li’s voice suddenly sounded.
Min Nan looked up and saw Sun Li smiling gently and understandingly at him.
Seeing that Min Nan seemed to be hesitant, Sun Li continued, “People who were fated would still come together in the future even if they were temporarily separated. Min Nan don’t be discouraged. Think about how your Uncle Wan and I got together back then. You couldn’t give up just like that.”
Hearing Sun Li’s words, Min Nan’s slightly furrowed brows slowly relaxed. The confusion and hesitation in his heart also slowly dissipated.
Min Nan’s godfather, Wan Yang, had fallen in love with Sun Li back then. However, Sun Li’s parents despised Wan Yang for not having much money. Without Sun Li’s consent, they let Sun Li get engaged to a carpenter in the village and even accepted the betrothal gift.
After Wan Yang found out about this, he went to look for Sun Li, only to find that Sun Li was locked in her room by her parents, waiting to get married.
Seeing that their relationship seemed to have reached a dead end, Wan Yang didn’t give up. He went straight to the door of the carpenter’s house and stood there without doing anything. When the carpenter went out, he followed the carpenter. His gloomy and murderous eyes fell on the back of the carpenter’s head without saying a word.
After three days, the carpenter finally couldn’t take it anymore. He was on the verge of breaking down. In the end, he ran to Sun Li’s house and proposed to cancel the engagement.
Sun Li’s parents were angry and helpless. They scolded Wan Yang for being a scoundrel.
Even though Sun Li’s parents were angry, they could do nothing about it. After the carpenter broke off the engagement, everyone in the village knew about the relationship between Sun Li and Wan Yang. No one dared to be the love rival of Wan Yang.
In the end, Sun Li’s parents could only agree to the marriage between Wan Yang and Sun Li.
After the marriage, Wan Yang joined the army and made many contributions to the army, getting promoted all the way.
If Wan Yang were still alive, his current achievements would probably not be much worse than Min Nan’s father.
Min Nan took a deep breath. His eyes gradually became clear and determined. He nodded at Sun Li. “Godmother, thank you. I understand. Then I went to pick up Ye Ling.”
Ye Ling arrived at the entrance of the newly built pharmacy in Stone Village.
Although this pharmacy belonged to Stone Village, as the largest pharmacy in the surrounding dozens of miles, the planner also hoped that this pharmacy could benefit more people. Therefore, the address of the pharmacy was located in the southernmost part of Stone Village, and there was a wide road leading to Lotus Village and Willow Village on both sides.
The pharmacy only had one floor, and the main body was in the shape of an ‘L’. There were a total of three rooms in the horizontal row. The two rooms on the left were the areas where various medicinal herbs were placed. The two rooms were connected.
The first half of the third room was a consultation room. There was a resting area separated by a sliding door behind the consultation room. There were two beds in the resting area and a table by the window.
There were two smaller houses next to the three houses. One was a utility room with a small toilet behind it. The other had a stove that could be used to cook.
Ye Ling sized up the layout of the pharmacy. Thinking that this was where she would be working in the future, she felt a little excited.
Ye Ling walked into the room on the left. As soon as she entered, she smelled a mixture of cooked herbs.
Ye Ling took a deep breath and felt a sense of familiarity.
It was as if she had returned to the Hundred Herb Hall.
The two people sitting behind the counter heard footsteps. At first, they thought it was a patient who came to get medicine. When they looked up, Yun
Jie was stunned. “Ye Ling?”
Ye Ling smiled when she saw Yun Jie.
Yun Jie opened the closed door and walked out from behind the counter. “You’re here to report, right? Just give me the document. By the way, let me introduce you. She’s Ji Mei. Ji Mei, this is Ye Ling.”
Ji Mei looked a little older than Yun Jie and Ye Ling. She had a round face and a
friendly smile.
Ji Mei looked at Ye Ling with a hint of admiration in her eyes. “You’re amazing.”
Ye Ling was stunned. Did she get full marks in the selection test? Why didn’t she know?
“My uncle is the examiner, so you know what I mean,” Ji Mei said with a smile. “But I didn’t get through the test by using connections. I came in last place with good results,” Ji Mei added hastily, worried that Ye Ling might misunderstand.
Ji Mei was an honest and cute girl. Hence, Ye Ling reached out her hand and shook hands with Ji Mei. Her eyes sparkled as she looked at the two rows of huge medicine cabinets placed against the wall behind the counter..”
