The middle-aged man with the two loose goatees stood up from his horse, looked at everyone present, and then walked towards Chu Tian.

"Give me your hand." The goatee man said to Chu Tian.

Chu Tian looked at the other side, a bit nervous, because the other side had a very strange aura, moreover the other side's appearance was also a bit strange. These days, there were many people with a flowing mountain goatee, but, this person in front of him with two long and thin goatees was definitely not a common sight.

"Give it to him." Xu Taiping said.

Chu Jingfeng looked at Xu Taiping with some dissatisfaction. He was Chu Tian's father, so it seemed like he should be the one saying these words right?

"Tantai Tian, show it to this uncle." Chu Jingfeng quickly added.

Chu Tong nodded his head and extended his hand out.

The goatee man directly grabbed onto Chu Tian's wrist.

"Weakness of breath leads to weakness of the body, chills of the spleen and stomach, and a lack of appetite. Little girl, do you like to drink alcohol?" The goatee man asked.

"Not bad, not bad, right?" Chu Tian said.

"Don't drink the wine. Your body is too weak, and you're heavily overdrawn, so it's not easy to deal with it! " The goatee man said.

"So, doctor, how should I treat it?" Chu Jingfeng nervously asked.

"Stay here for half a month, I'll help you treat it. You need to use Chinese medicine." The goatee man released his grip and said.

"Uncle Wang, this is our Director Xu's girlfriend." Duanmu Huazhe, who was at the side, explained.

"You bastard, what do you mean by saying this? Do you think I'm coveting other people's girls?" I'm old enough to be a father, you know! "He doesn't know how to talk at all!" The man called Uncle Wang said angrily.

"Hahaha, who told you to look so wretched?" The man who was called Dad by Duanmu Huazhe laughed heartily as he sat on the chair.

If this person could make Duanmu Huazhe call him father, then it could only be bestowed by Duanmu Huanghun.

However, he was different from the other martial arts masters. From the way Duanmu Huanghun spoke, it seemed that … He was a rather outspoken person.

"Scoundrel?" "You're the f * cking wretched one. Didn't laozi grow a goatee? Are you the wretched one?" Uncle Wang said angrily, then he looked at Chu Tian and said, "If you want to be cured, you must stay here for half a month, I will help you transfer!"

"Can't you just give my daughter a prescription or something? Then we can boil our own medicine when we get home?" Chu Jingfeng asked.

"Every day, you need to use a different medicine. I need to change the medicine formula according to the changes in her body, understand?" Those who take one week and one month of the prescription are all not professionals. The patient's body changes every day, so how can the prescription take so long! " Uncle Wang said.

"Then stay here." At the side, Xu Taiping said, "Otherwise, it would be terrifying to suddenly faint while walking. What if it's on the main road? That would be quite dangerous. "

"You're right!" Uncle Wang nodded. "This disease, if we don't cure it completely, it will be a little troublesome in the future."

"Half a month... Daughter, what do you think? " Chu Jingfeng asked.

"This... I... I don't know. " Chu Tian was a bit confused, letting him stay here for half a month really made it difficult for her, after all, she was not familiar with this place.

"Why don't you just have your boyfriend stay here with you. Anyway, he's been doing quite a lot lately, look at him. " Duanmu Ci suddenly said.

"Oh?" Xu Taiping smiled as he looked at Duanmu Ci and said, "Mister Duanmu, do you know me?"

"Who in the world doesn't know of Xu Taiping?" Duanmu Ci smiled and said, "Although I'm not walking in the martial arts world, I still watch quite a lot of this television. Moreover, my son has also told me about you."

"I have indeed been busy lately. However, Mr. Duanmu, if you let me stay here, I might bring you trouble!" Xu Taiping said with a smile.

"Trouble? "That's not so. In a few days, the steward will have to go out to handle some matters, and no one will be playing Landlord with us. So, if you live here, you can play Landlord with the three of us every day. It's pretty good, right?" Duanmu Ci said.

"Landlord?" Xu Taiping looked at the cards on the table in front of him, then said, "You guys like playing Landlord?"

"Of course." Duanmu Ci smiled and said, "Playing Landlord is a very interesting activity."

"Alright then." Xu Taiping smiled and said, "Then I'll stay here with Chu Tian for half a month, we'll play Landlord for half a month."

"Very good!" Duanmu Ci nodded with a smile and then said to the people beside her, "Butler, go and arrange a room for them."

"Got it." The butler nodded, then turned around and left.

"Doctor Wang, give the little girl a set of medicine to recuperate first." Duanmu Ci said.

"Sure!" Doctor Wang nodded his head, and said to Chu Tian, "Come with me to catch some medicine. In this place, I don't need your money to cure your illness, but I want you to come with me to pick some herbs. You have to come with me."

"This, alright." Chu Tong nodded, then said, "Are we going now?"

"Of course, let's go." said Doctor Wang.

"Tun Tian, pay attention to your safety!" Chu Jingfeng warned.

"With Doctor Wang around, it'll be fine." Duanmu Ci said.

"Doctor Wang? Is that his name? " Xu Taiping asked curiously.

"Yes, it's called Doctor Wang. He's the doctor's doctor." Duanmu Ci said.

"What an interesting name!" Xu Taiping smiled and nodded, then said to Chu Jingfeng, "Secretary Chu, with me here, you can go back peacefully."

"Sigh!" Chu Jingfeng really wanted to say that it was because of you that he didn't feel at ease, but after thinking about how his daughter would be together with Xu Pingping for the next half month, he felt that there was no use in saying these words, so he swallowed his words and repeatedly told Xu Pingping that he would bring the others and leave together with him.

At the scene, only Xu Taiping, Zhao Biqian, and Duanmu Huanghun were left.

"Come, let's fight with the landlord for a while!" Duanmu Qun pulled the small Mazar over and sat down. The butler immediately sat down as well. The two of them then looked at Xu Taiping expectantly.

"Come." Xu Taiping smiled and sat down.

Landlord was a game that many people knew how to play.

Xu Taiping knew how to play and knew how to do so because he had a good memory. He could remember every single card that someone played, so he was not interested in playing Landlord since very few people could win against him.

At least, that was what Xu Taiping thought before he came to the Duanmu family.

Taking advantage of Chu Tian's visit to the hospital, Xu Taiping, Duanmu Ci and the steward began to play Landlord.

The fight had lasted an entire afternoon.

The sun was setting.

"1v2, let's go!" Duanmu Ci put down the last two tokens in her hands and proudly said, "I've won again."

"How is this possible?!" Xu Taiping put down his cards in disbelief. His cards were good, almost a sure win in his eyes, but in the end, it was Duanmu Ci who won.

In the afternoon, Xu Taiping had been like this many times. He was so confident that he lost in the end.

"Fifty-four cards, seventeen cards a combination, can combine countless possibilities. Even if you remember all the cards you've played, as long as you can't analyze the possible cards set by the opponent, you will still lose in the end. Sometimes, when the cards are good, you may not necessarily win, but the most important thing is that the cards will go smoothly." Duanmu Ci said with a profound expression.

Xu Taiping looked at the cards in his hands. They were obviously good cards, but he had lost.

After a long time, Xu Taiping suddenly laughed out loud, "I thought we would have to fight each other every day for the next ten or so days. After all, we are all experts, and sparring is a way to improve each other's abilities. Now, it seems that I've found the main thing we need to do during these ten or so days."

"Hahaha, fighting is a very low level business, only people with a lower one likes to use their fists to solve everything. It's just like my son, he doesn't have a high enough level right now, so I told him to challenge more people who are stronger than him. When his level is high enough, I will teach him how to fight the landlord." Duanmu Ci said.

"Thank you for your guidance, Mister Duanmu." Xu Taiping cupped his fists and said. Although he had only played cards for an afternoon, Xu Taiping felt a lot of things.

Duanmu Huanghun understood one thing: if he used a good card, he might not be able to obtain the final victory.

However, if he wanted to achieve the final victory, there were still too many factors. And he, in the span of these dozen or so days, would properly learn how to turn a good card into a winning card.

To Xu Taiping, these ten days would be a very, very rare time.

The sun had set and the sky had darkened.

Chu Tian was sitting in front of a stove with a fan in his hand.

Although it was winter, Chu Tian was still sweating profusely.

Today, he went out with that royal doctor to get medicine, almost walking the entire road of Chu Tian's one year.

Chu Tian did not expect that he would be able to catch so many herbs, many of which were directly harvested from somewhere on the mountain. All afternoon, Chu Tian had been walking, and after taking a detour, that Doctor Wang actually passed the furnace to Chu Tian and then ran over to see Xu Taiping and the rest of them fighting the landlord. This made Chu Tian extremely angry, if not for the fact that this medicine was for him to drink, Chu Tian would have already broken it.

Outside the room, not far away.

"Is Chu Tian sick okay?" Xu Taiping asked Dr. Wang.

"It's nothing, there's a lack of exercise, plus alcohol, so after all these years my body has become weak. Now, while I'm strengthening her training, I'm also using Chinese medicine to help her adjust her body, so she'll be transferred back in half a month. Right, today I played cards with Duanmu Huanghun, but I haven't won much, right?" Doctor Wang asked with a smile.

"Mister Duanmu's card skills are too powerful!" Xu Taiping said in admiration.

"Of course. Back then, Duanmu Ci was a runner-up in China's first Landlord Competition!" said Doctor Wang.

"Second Army? Who's the champion? " Xu Taiping asked.

"Zhao Gang Ming."
