Courtyard House: My System - Artificial Human

Chapter 22 Tian Zao: Don't take that medicine anymore...

[1. Congratulations, host, on finding your life partner! You are hereby granted three special skills: Eloquent Tongue; Golden Right Hand; Swift as a Dragon (Note: These special skills have other uses besides their literal meanings)]

[2. Congratulations, host, on finding your life partner! Here is a Beauty Elixir (for your partner only). It can soothe the mind and nourish the complexion, enhance beauty and radiance, and shape and rejuvenate the body. It also has certain effects on improving physical constitution, purifying and detoxifying, and strengthening the body's foundation.]

[3. Congratulations, host, on finding your life partner. The android module has enabled female selection. You are rewarded with 24 female primary clones (based on your existing clone pairings; any offspring born from these clones will also be loyal to you)]

At this moment, Lin Weidong finally realized how outrageous the artificial human system was. Wouldn't there be his people in every industry twenty, forty, or even a hundred years from now?

What's the point of trying then?! Hurry up! Send each of you a wife to have a baby!

Lin Weidong waved his hand, randomly assigning talents and matching identities, and then anchored and sent messages to the 22 clones who had already appeared, saying, "Time to pick up your wives!"

After the teleportation was completed, Lin Weidong was about to check the clone's status when he suddenly felt a weight on his body. He looked up and saw Tian Zao approaching.

"Shall we continue?"

"what?"

"Didn't you wave to me? Are you done playing?" Tian Zao's charming eyes faltered. Could she have misunderstood?

"Play! Wait a minute, I'll give you something good to eat first!"

Lin Weidong got up and went to get his coat. Under the cover of the pocket, he took out a bottle of "Ten-Ingredient Tonic Pills" from his spatial storage and poured out two pills.

However, while he took the "Ten-Ingredient Tonic Pill," he gave Tian Zao a "Beauty Pill."

At the same time, he silently recited the mantra in his heart, and instantly felt a serious abnormality in his body.

Wow! Damn! It seems the inheritance has been passed down to a whole new level!

Inside the side room, the battle reignites.

Lin Weidong charged forward relentlessly. If it weren't for the surging medicinal power of the beauty pill that Tian Zao had just taken supporting her body, she probably would have already fainted.

Even so, afterwards she was still completely limp and lifeless.

Lin Weidong was extremely embarrassed. He quickly cleaned up the marks on the two of them, wrapped himself in a blanket, and ran back to the main bedroom with Tian Zao in his arms.

He underestimated the system's power, and after taking another potent tonic, his lust was still burning, and he almost ruined Tianzao.

On the heated kang (a traditional heated brick bed), Tian Zao fell asleep the moment her head hit the pillow, but Lin Weidong was full of energy and dared not stay in the same quilt as Tian Zao.

After taking the beauty-enhancing pill, Tian Zao began to exude a faint, alluring fragrance.

Unable to vent his energy, Lin Weidong stepped out of the room and threw out a long jujube wood stick from his spatial storage to practice his marksmanship.

On a cold winter night, Lin Weidong stood shirtless, his body brimming with vitality, his muscles crisscrossing like gnarled old tree roots.

The long jujube wood staff he wielded produced a continuous whistling sound.

He originally thought that the literal meaning of "long spear like a dragon" was what he understood it to mean.

The unexpected result was the side effect!

The system truly passed down to him the art of weapon combat.

The Golden Right Hand is a hand-based fighting technique that can be used with both hands, but the right hand is more extreme.

As for being eloquent... let's not talk about it.

In short, Lin Weidong was very hurt; he felt there was some kind of generation gap between himself and the system.

In the courtyard, as Lin Weidong exerted more and more force, the long jujube wood stick could not withstand the force and gradually broke open, eventually snapping into several pieces.

Helpless, Lin Weidong switched to practicing fist and foot techniques, and the wind from his punches still howled.

He felt like he had traveled to the wrong era; he should have gone to ancient times!

Just a few days ago, he was still indignant that after traversing the courtyard world, he wasn't even allowed to play with his silly fist.

But when the inheritance truly came to him, his blood and qi surged, and the energy that had nowhere to go was simply the greatest torment for this lazy man!

Tonight, the scene inside and outside the house is two completely different.

Tian Zao slept until dawn and still hadn't gotten up.

Lin Weidong ate and practiced intermittently throughout the night, enduring the intense physical exertion to calm his turbulent blood before daring to go back to sleep.

Both of them were tired in two different ways, and together they slept until noon.

When she opened her eyes again, Tian Zao held Lin Weidong's face in her hands with a worried expression and tried to comfort him.

"You look so tired... Don't take that kind of medicine anymore."

Lin Weidong was originally strong... but she really couldn't handle the medicine. Of course, the most important thing was that the medicine wasn't good.

She frequented the streets and alleys since she was a child, and although she had seen and heard a lot, she had also seen a lot. Everyone said that medicine is three parts poison, so why would you take that stuff?

That statement is full of ambiguity.

Lin Weidong looked up speechlessly... "May Heaven discern the loyal from the treacherous!"

He was clearly harmed by those three inheritances! What does it have to do with taking medicine?

After getting up, Lin Weidong picked up the kettle on the stove and poured water into the basin.

Tian Zao washed off last night's makeup, tied up a strand of hair, and began to exude charm.

After looking in the mirror, she couldn't hide her smile and felt that she looked much better than usual!

Tian Zao attributed all the credit to the fact that people are in high spirits when they are having a good time, and immediately rolled up his sleeves and got into character.

"Are you hungry? I'll go cook!"

"Zao'er, you don't need to bother. I'll have someone bring it over later, along with your clothes. You're a heavy sleeper, so I went out before dawn this morning."

While giving instructions, Lin Weidong busied himself preparing the daily morning tea, handing Tian Zao a cup of jasmine tea.

"Eating out is so expensive! It costs extra money to make someone run errands..."

Tian Zao used to be a gofer, and upon hearing this, a hint of heartache appeared on her face.

"Don't worry about it. I have my own ways of making money. You just need to be a good wife from now on! Besides, this is our special day, shouldn't we have something nice to celebrate?"

Lin Weidong couldn't very well say that he was picky about food and didn't trust her cooking skills, could he?

He reached out and pulled Tianzao into his arms, giving her two light kisses. The fragrance of the flowers was rich, and he thought to himself that the beauty pill was truly a wonderful thing. In a sense, it was equivalent to his own fresh constitution, saving him a lot of trouble and making it convenient to be intimate with her at any time.

Dazed from being pecked, Tian Zao obediently nestled against Lin Weidong.

After a short while, Mr. and Mrs. Hu entered the courtyard carrying a food box and a bundle, knocking on the door.

Under Tian Zao's surprised gaze, after setting out several exquisite stir-fries, he began to clean up.

Seeing that the other person was about to head towards the side room, she felt extremely embarrassed and got up to chase after him, but Lin Weidong pulled her back and shoved chopsticks into her hand.

"Eat your food properly. You're allowed to have your underlings but not me? Don't worry, you'll get paid."

Since Tian Zao's favorability was already established, Lin Weidong was able to show her a bit of his family's wealth, of course, only the kind that could be explained on the surface.

Such a miraculous existence as the system is something even the most favored son wouldn't mention.

"Later, you'll go with Hu Yi's wife. There's a courtyard in Suoyi Hutong; that's our real home. As for this courtyard, it belongs to my eldest brother. Once you get there, see if anything is missing. You can go for a walk with Hu Yi's wife and maybe move some things while you're at it. If anyone asks, just say you've rented a new place..."

Lin Weidong ate and explained at the same time. Tian Zao was in a daze, and the delicacies on the table tasted like wax to her mouth.

Besides marveling at Lin Weidong's wealth and her own good fortune, she felt more fear and inferiority. In the past, only wealthy families could afford such a life...

"Alright, stop overthinking it. Just relax. Are you trying to bring trouble to your man by acting so nervous?"

After the meal, Tian Zao was given a few pointers by Lin Weidong, who pinched her cheeks.

Having grown up relying on the kindness of many families, she possessed a resilient spirit. She quickly composed herself, changed into the clothes brought by Hu Yi's wife, and left with the two men.

Lin Weidong then took out the large file folder that the bureau leader had given him the day before.
