After being universally criticized online, I went viral on military-themed variety shows.

Chapter 805 Strange Illness, Seems Like We've Hit Our Destination

Both Jiang Hanying and Ye Mingxin knew the reaction of the only two people in Queshan who received the wedding candy gift boxes.

Putting everything else aside, it definitely creates a lot of anticipation.

On the third day after Jiang Hanying and Li Chengxiao got their marriage certificate, Ye Mingxin and Li Xingchuan invited the two to their home for dinner and told them that they would be going on a long trip the next morning, which would last from a week to ten days or half a month.

Upon hearing this, Jiang Hanying casually asked, "Where are you going?"

There's nothing wrong with saying this, Ye Mingxin replied directly: "In the Cuiping area to the south, there's a strange illness spreading there. Western medicine can't find the specific cause, so they reported it to the Traditional Chinese Medicine Association. Ultimately, they decided to go there to make a diagnosis. My master is one of the team leaders and helped me secure a spot as an accompanying doctor. As for your dad..." She glanced at Li Xingchuan, who was peeling an orange for her, "he's just a self-funded assistant."

Li Xingchuan placed the peeled orange in his wife's hand without the slightest embarrassment, and even nodded to Rong Youyan, saying, "This is called 'the wife leads and the husband follows.'"

Ye Mingxin: "..."

“Cuiping…”

Jiang Hanying turned her head to look at her cheap owner sitting next to her and muttered softly, "Why does this place name sound a little familiar?"

Li Chengxiao popped a peeled orange segment into her mouth and whispered back, "Cuiping Mountain."

Just adding the word "mountain" was like flipping a switch; Jiang Hanying immediately remembered it.

The lair of the Corpse-Hidden Worms that they were going to was in the mountains near Cuiping Mountain.

"You crashed it!"

"Yeah, indeed."

Li Chengxiao was thinking about even more things at this moment.

It's unknown whether the so-called strange illness is related to the corpse-laying worms lurking in the neighboring mountains.

If his guess is true, then they really did collide.

"You have terrible taste in oranges." Ye Mingxin frowned at the sourness of the oranges, tossed the rest back to Li Xingchuan, and looked up to see the young couple across from her whispering in front of her, "What do you mean, 'clash'?"

They immediately shook their heads in unison, saying, "It's nothing."

She squinted and looked them over for a few more seconds before pointing to the guest room on the first floor. "It's getting late. You two shouldn't drive back to the old house in the dark. Stay here for the night before heading back."

The house they live in now is not only a residence, but the entire top floor with a terrace is also Li Xingchuan's studio.

In addition, one of the couple loves beautiful scenery, and the other grew up in a remote mountain village, making them closer to nature than others.

So while their place is indeed very close to nature, it's also incredibly remote.

If I drive back now, it will be midnight by the time I reach the old house.

"As for the clothes you need to change into, Xiaoying, come with me to get them. I have quite a few that I haven't worn before. Shuheng, go find your dad."

Even the clean clothes they needed to change into were taken into consideration. Jiang Hanying and Li Chengxiao obediently nodded and got up to collect their respective clothes.

After getting the clothes and going back inside, I closed the door.

Li Chengxiao then voiced his earlier guess.

Jiang Hanying was exploring the unique guest room filled with natural charm when she heard the story, and she couldn't care less about exploring anymore. "It really is possible. Should we go and ask what's so strange about this illness?"

Li Chengxiao looked up at the ceiling and said, "Let's wait until tomorrow."

The master bedroom upstairs.

Li Xingchuan cleaned himself up thoroughly and carefully applied anti-aging creams to his face, neck, and body to keep his skin smooth and youthful. After massaging them in, he tiptoed over to his wife, who was leaning against the headboard reading her medical notes, and whispered, "Mingxin, it's getting late. We have to get up early tomorrow to go to the airport to meet up with Master and the others."

Ye Mingxin closed her notebook, looked up, and asked, "Finished with your maintenance?"

"Mmm," Li Xingchuan quickly squatted down and offered his face, "Feel it, isn't it less rough now?"

Seeing his serious expression, Ye Mingxin pursed her lips, suppressed a smile, and reached out to touch it. "It is indeed much smoother."

"Right, right?" Li Xingchuan chuckled and placed his hand on his wife's hand. With his other hand, he was about to untie the belt of his robe so his wife could examine the rest of her body. Just then, he heard a voice from above: "By the way, I wrote a letter to Aheng earlier and put it in the wedding candy gift box that Shuheng and Xiaoying gave her. When we get to Cuiping, if my master and I are too busy to leave, and she comes to see me, please receive her for me."

"You asked me to receive Zhu Heng!"

"Otherwise? Weren't you supposed to be my assistant? If you don't do this, who will?"

Li Xingchuan: No, hehe!
Thousands of miles away, Que Bingchen: Brother, I understand you!

The next morning.

The two people staying in a first-floor guest room were woken up by the sound of luggage being moved outside.

Li Chengxiao got up, tidied himself up, glanced at Jiang Hanying who was still covered by the blanket and wanted to stay in bed a little longer, then opened the door and went out.

Hearing the noise, Li Xingchuan turned around and said, "You're up. Come and lend a hand."

First, Li Chengxiao was called over to help carry luggage. Then he walked over to Ye Mingxin, who was making breakfast in the kitchen. Before he could even speak, a bunch of green vegetables appeared in his hand. "Wash the vegetables and blanch them. Do you know how?"

"meeting."

Ye Ming nodded in satisfaction, picked up the spoon and continued stirring the porridge in front of him to prevent it from burning.

"Xiaoying is still not awake?"

"I'm awake, but I'm still lying in bed."

Ye Mingxin chuckled softly, "This girl."

"Mom, what exactly did you mean by the strange illness that appeared in the Cuiping area yesterday?"

Ye Mingxin immediately turned her head to look at her son, who was diligently washing vegetables in front of the sink.

Although she and her son have only spent a few days together, it's enough for her to understand her son's personality.

Why are you suddenly so curious?
"Why are you asking about this suddenly?"

"A little curious."

"Then you'll be disappointed. My master practically forced me into the medical team this time, so I don't know much about the specific illnesses. I went there to learn. If you're allowed, I can tell you about it when we get back from Cuiping."

"Ah."

Ye Mingxin glanced at his face again, but couldn't see anything, so she looked away and said, "Go and wake Xiaoying up for breakfast."

Li Chengxiao took the blanched vegetables out, turned off the heat, and wiped his hands. "I'm going to see Mom."

Hearing the door open, Jiang Hanying pulled the blanket off her head, turned over, and squinted at the doorway.

Li Chengxiao closed the door behind him and met her gaze: "I just asked, and she didn't know either."

"Never mind then." Jiang Hanying stretched and sat up, sniffing. "Is breakfast ready?"

“Okay,” Li Chengxiao took the clothes she wanted to wear from the clothes rack next to him, “Get up and go out for dinner.”

Before Ye Mingxin could even pack up after breakfast, she received a message in the volunteer medical team's group chat, tagging everyone and telling her to hurry to the airport to meet up.

The couple simply dumped the task of clearing the dining table and kitchen onto the young couple, saying, "We'll go first. You just stay here, clean up, turn off the lights, lock the door, and leave!"

"Mom and Dad," Li Chengxiao called out to his parents, who were about to turn and leave, and when they turned back to look at him, "Be careful."

Ye Mingxin was taken aback for a moment, then smiled brightly, "Don't worry, nothing will happen. I'm off, son!"

Li Chengxiao: When he arrives at Cuiping after some time, he doesn't know whether he wants to see these two or not!

Looking at Jiang Hanying, who was still holding a bowl and making her final cleanup, I thought: Forget it, we'll talk about it later!

It's definitely not something I caught from my own family!
