He smiled slightly. “Good, we’ll see if there are any snacks you like. Why don’t you practice your handwriting? I will check it when I’m back.”

“Don’t worry, brother. I promise I will practice harder.” Xie Jun nodded thoughtfully.

“We’ll bring you candy if you behave yourself,” Zhao Chuchu also said.

!!

Xie Jun beamed with pleasure. “Sure, I will.”

The candy called sugar-coated haws, given by Zhao Chuchu, was the most delicious because it smelled good and tasted sweet.

Zhao Chuchu and Xie Heng went out holding hands.

Xie Jun laughed like a drain.

He thought he would be an uncle soon.

Old Mrs. Gan came out and saw Xie Jun giggling alone, so she asked, “Junjun, what are you happy about? Tell me.”

“Hello, grandma,” Xie Jun smiled and got up to salute Old Mrs. Gan, then scratched his head and said with a bit of embarrassment. “Chuchu went out with my brother and said she would bring me snacks.”

“What do you want to eat? Tell me. I’ll have someone buy it for you.”

“No, Grandma, my brother will buy it for me.”

“The snacks grandma buys are different from those my brother buys.”

“Hey, but grandma doesn’t know that,” he thought.

When Zhao Chuchu and Xie Heng left the Gan clan’s gate, Zhao Chuchu said to Xie Heng, “I realize now that Junjun has been trying to make space for us. He seems too mature for his age.”

“We grow up together. He knows me well.” Xie Heng said, “Junjun may be innocent, but he is astute.”

“Da Lang, you shouldn’t let Junjun be so innocent. His life is destined to be a tough one!”

Xie Heng froze in silence. “I searched all over the world but couldn’t find anyone who could cure Junjun, so I thought I would take care of him for the rest of my life. I want for him to live a happy life without being tormented by feelings of insecurity.”

“But not anymore.” Zhao Chuchu understood.

Xie Heng felt sorry for Xie Jun and wanted to take care of everything for him so that Xie Jun could simply be happy.

It was good to have such a brother.

Zhao Chuchu was still happy for Xie Jun to be saved by the Xie clan.

“Yes, it won’t be now, so in these two years, I will teach Xie Jun well.” Xie Heng wasn’t worried about the Imperial Examination.

In his previous life, he became the Number One Scholar, then the grand secretary for so many years, and he had power over the whole world. A mere Imperial Examination could never daunt him.

No one knew better than him the nature and preferences of the ministers in the court.

Since Xie Jun would not follow the path of his previous life, he would naturally change his teaching style.

A qualified monarch should be a man weathered to the world.

The two of them chatted quietly and soon arrived at the drugstore.

Zhao Chuchu named the herbs she needed, only to be told that two more herbs were not in stock right now.

“So when will they be available?”

“Doctor Zhao, we can’t guarantee this.”

The manager was in a difficult position.

“Although it is not a common medicine, it is not rare, so how can it be out of stock?”

Zhao Chuchu was puzzled.

“Doctor Zhao, I’m afraid these two medicines are unavailable in the entire Yuanjiang County. Just yesterday, someone came and bought them all.”

“What is the purpose of buying these two medicines?”

“It’s not an elixir. Why the hell would he do that?” she thought.

“Manager, do you remember what that man looked like?”

“It was a short middle-aged man with a crappy face…” the manager described the man’s appearance.

Xie Heng frowned slightly at this.

Zhao Chuchu noticed Xie Heng’s reaction and found it unusual.

“Is it possible that he is an acquaintance of Xie Heng’s?” she thought.

“Can you tell from his accent where he is from?” Zhao Chuchu asked tentatively.

The manager said, “The capital.”

“Is there something wrong with the capital? The herbs are not very useful. How come they are sold out?”

“I have not heard of it, but it is possible that the message has not yet reached us.”

“Okay, thanks for the information, manager.”

“Do you want the other drugs, Doctor Zhao?”

“Yes, wrap them up for me.”

Walking out of the pharmacy, Zhao Chuchu asked in a low voice, “Do you know where the man is from?”

“Well, if the manager is not lying, this person should be from the Sikou clan.”

“Then do you remember what happened? Why do they need so much medicine?”

“Yes, over in Mingan Province, there is a town where all the people had a big belly disease, and the doctor was at his wits’ end. Finally, it was these two medicines that relieved the patient’s symptoms. But I remember that the belly disease had not yet spread to the capital at this time, and only in July and August did there be an outbreak.”

...

“Big belly disease?”

“Isn’t that the highly contagious schistosomiasis?” she thought.

With an infected patient, the liver and spleen would enlarge and contain water, making the stomach look big. That was why it was called big belly disease.

This disease was caused by schistosomes parasitizing the human body and usually occurred in the summer and fall.

Some people stocked up on drugs in advance…

“Wait, it can’t be your case all over again, right?” Zhao Chuchu suddenly had a bad feeling, thinking Sikou Qin might be reborn.

If so, Sikou Qin would likely try to get back with Xie Heng again.

When she thought about this, Zhao Chuchu was speechless.

In her previous life before doomsday, she had read many novels featuring rebirth when she was bored.

Some women hated and constantly ignored their husbands in their previous lives and turned to having fun with their lovers. In the end, they found they were tools and vowed they’d do whatever it took to avenge themselves before their death. However, when they were reborn, they discovered their husbands, whom they had looked down upon, were big shots and tried to be nice to their husbands in the hope of getting benefits.

Zhao Chuchu was very speechless whenever she saw this kind of plot.

...

Although the novel was stupid, if the story was really a world of its own and the characters were real, maybe the male lead would like to kill the female lead after he realized her comeback was to make better use of his power and money.

Anyway, if it were Zhao Chuchu, she would definitely do so!

“Why do I have to give my heart to you in this life just because you mistreated me in the previous life? Who do you think you are?” she thought.

“What if she wants to get back together with you?” Zhao Chuchu glanced at Xie Heng.

Xie Heng immediately said, “Impossible.”

In his previous life, before he knew the true nature of Sikou Qin, he had never had any feelings for her, and now it was even more impossible.

“Chuchu, no one can replace you.” Xie Heng looked at Zhao Chuchu and said with a straight face, “If it’s really like what you think, I will solve it properly.”

In short, Sikou Qin would not be given a chance.

“What’s more, she’s already married now.”

Zhao Chuchu thought about it and remembered Xie Heng had indeed said this before.

But on second thought, she found Sikou Qin had not returned for long.

She blamed it on improper time travel.

Now that Zhao Zhizhi was out of the picture, it didn’t occur to her that Sikou Qin would fill her place.

Zhao Chuchu slyly glanced at Xie Heng.

Xie Heng’s heart skipped a beat, sensing the signal of danger.

“Chuchu, don’t make a deal out of it. It’s not what you think.”

Xie Heng tried to comfort her.

However, he would be disproved the next moment.
