Carrying the little lucky star, leading the villain on the road to exile

But Xu Zitian was still unwilling to give up. Granny Pang was the most skilled doctor he had found here. "This is the only hobby of my master. He also usually avoids certain foods."

We don't expect a cure, we just hope to alleviate some of his pain.

Don't worry, we're willing to pay high rewards as long as there are some positive results.

As he spoke, he looked at Gu Kaiyuan, wanting him to speak on his behalf.

Gu Kaiyuan wisely turned his attention away, realizing that this was a matter he shouldn't get involved in.

Although treating Grand Tutor Lu could bring them benefits, it also carried great risks.

He would often listen to Granny Pang's lectures and knew how troublesome it was to have an uncooperative patient.

This doctor isn't a god; how can you place all your hopes on someone else?

He just hadn't expected that Grand Tutor Lu would be such a person.

In his memory, it seemed that when he was murdered, Grand Tutor Lu was still alive and well, and he would occasionally hear that he was going out to enjoy delicious food.

He lived longer than me in his previous life, so I don't know why his disciples are in such a hurry.

"It's not about the reward. If this illness can be cured, it's my duty as a doctor to do so."

"I also wish to benefit from this, but unfortunately my medical skills are still inadequate. Lord Xu, you should seek someone more skilled." Granny Pang knew it was impossible, so of course she wouldn't insist on taking credit for it. In the end, things might not go well, and she might even offend someone and implicate the Madam.

"Then I wonder if Granny has any good suggestions for my master's illness?" Xu Zitian knew that he couldn't force her after hearing her say that. He knew that his master couldn't control his mouth.

Perhaps it was because he wanted to try everything that he developed this disease. Now that he's getting older, he's even more reckless. He often says things like, "I'm so old, I'm starting to lose my teeth. If I don't eat something delicious, what's the point of living?"
He would often use various excuses to completely corner his brothers, ultimately allowing them to succeed.

They searched everywhere for a doctor, but in their hearts they still harbored a delusion that perhaps some miracle doctor could cure their illness and allow their master to enjoy all the delicacies of the world without any worries.

Since the matter had come to this point, Granny Pang didn't hide anything and repeated all the precautions that needed to be taken into account. Hearing these same precautions, Xu Zitian sighed. It seemed that this trip had been in vain again.

After seeing the person off, Bai Suihe asked, "Granny, if Grand Tutor Lu had abstained from certain foods from the beginning, could the illness have been cured?"

Granny Pang thought for a moment and nodded, "Speaking of which, he delayed treatment himself. If he had followed the doctor's advice, it could have been completely controlled."

Control it? Bai Suihe couldn't help but think that Emperor Wu of Han in history also seemed to suffer from diabetes. According to records, he once took a secret prescription from the Western Regions to control the condition, but it was not cured.

"We don't know how to treat this here. I wonder if there are any treatments available in the Western Regions?" Bai Suihe asked tentatively.

Granny Pang seemed to be deep in thought. She knew that besides doctors from the Central Plains, there were many other medical practitioners, such as Miao doctors, Mongolian doctors, Tibetan doctors, and so on. She wasn't sure if these places had any treatment methods.

If there's a chance in the future, we should still get in touch. It might improve everyone's medical skills. "What you said is not impossible. After all, there's no end to learning. Let's discuss it with them again when we have the chance."

However, these are not things we can worry about right now. How much of what I just said do you remember? The master and apprentice began to study again, and Gu Kaiyuan sat quietly listening. After the two finished speaking, Granny Pang went to rest, and he then took the child and approached.

"Madam, are you done with your work?" Gu Kaiyuan's voice was tinged with grievance. He hadn't been home for months. Didn't his wife miss him?
Gu Xingyang yawned. She had been trying hard to memorize things. She was determined to be even better than her parents in the future, so she had to start working hard from a young age.

Her small frame just wouldn't allow it; sleepiness just wouldn't let her go. She couldn't stay awake any longer, and she wondered what her parents would say. She was so curious…

Gu Kaiyuan looked down and saw that his daughter, who had been blinking her big eyes just moments before, had suddenly closed them and fallen fast asleep, which made him feel even more wronged.

Aside from calling his name in a childish voice once, the little guy brazenly attended the class even more openly than he did. As soon as his family finally had some free time, the little guy would fall asleep instantly, showing remarkable control over his behavior.

"I'm done with work," Bai Suihe said, putting away the notes she had just made before looking him up and down. "You look a bit darker than before this time you went out."

"Of course, the sun is getting stronger and stronger now, and sometimes I have to wear just a light shirt. Compared to summer, I actually prefer winter." Seeing that his wife had finally paid attention to him, Gu Kaiyuan felt that he had so much to say, but he didn't know where to begin.

Bai Suihe, "Why do you say that?"

"In winter, if you dress warmly, you won't get cold, but in summer, it's about taking care of everyone..."

The couple chatted about everyday things and asked about interesting things that had happened to everyone recently. After an hour, Gu Xingyang, who had been sleeping, finally woke up and joined them.

Gu Kaiyuan also brought back good news this time. The shipyard is almost ready and has found a few more craftsmen. If things go smoothly, their ship may be able to go to sea next year.

To keep his actions discreet, Gu Kaiyuan bought a large tract of land in a remote fishing village and gave the original fishermen there a large sum of money to relocate elsewhere.

Bai Suihe jokingly said that these should be the earliest batch of relocated households. With so much money, the villagers can not only build a new home, but also have some money left over.

So these people had no objections, happily took the money, signed the contracts, and either moved to the city or settled in other villages.

"Won't that place be discovered?" Bai Suihe was still a little worried. After all, it was impossible to completely hide such a large shipyard.

Although Lingnan was looked down upon by aristocratic families in the past, things are different now. Many families are flocking here, wanting a share of the pie.

In Zhang County, a large influx of newcomers has recently caused housing and commodity prices to rise.

"Shop prices have gone up a lot lately, when do you think we should sell some?"

Bai Suihe didn't intend to rely on rent. The two had already agreed that, apart from keeping some shops for their own business, they would sell the rest when the price reached a certain level.

They have invested so much capital in various counties and cities, and they are now in dire need of funds to keep the shipyard running.

“I came back this time with this in mind,” Gu Kaiyuan said, looking at Bai Suihe. “Don’t overwork yourself. If you want to learn medicine, we can take it slowly. You’ve lost some weight lately.” (End of Chapter)
