Chapter 43

This is the anti-theft badge

In contrast..,

Qin Jiao, who stayed at home all day, seemed a little idle.

There was no need to cultivate..,

Qin Jiao was so bored that he could only read books to pass the time.

But now..,

Many books belonged to the "pornographic" category,

There were very few that could be read.

Fortunately, a few days ago, during the Qin Family Gathering..,

Qin Jiao coincidentally found a medical book at her aunt, Fang Shuyun's place.

After flipping through it..,

It actually made her regain the joy of when she first learned alchemy.

In fact, that book belonged to Fang Shuyun's father, Mr. Fang,

It was originally a book about explaining medicinal herbs. However, after Mr. Fang entered the medical profession for many years, he wrote down his years of medical experience in it.

Mr. Fang had wanted to pass down this book and his medical skills to his descendants.

However, his only son was focused on politics.

His only daughter..,

Was Qin Jiao's aunt, Fang Shuyun. She studied medicine, but she studied Western medicine,

Because she had no interest in her father's Chinese medicine at all.

Mr. Fang tried to persuade her many times, but to no avail,

He also gave up,

He could only sigh that his medical skills had no successor.

Later on, for various reasons..,

Then, he gave the book to his daughter for safekeeping.

And then..,

Until now..,

,

Qin Jiao accidentally found this book.

Qin Jiao naturally knew how precious this book was.

Let's not talk about the medicinal herbs recorded in it for the time being.

He only talked about the notes on practicing medicine in it,

That was the experience of Mr. Fang's lifetime of medical practice,

It was his lifetime of hard work,

It was something that many people couldn't get even if they wanted it.

Knowing this..,

Qin Jiao naturally cherished it very much when she flipped through it.

She didn't expect that after Fang Shuyun saw that she liked this book so much, she made the decision to give this book to Qin Jiao.

Of course, Qin Weimin and his wife tried their best to evade the responsibility.

Qin Jiao looked at her parents and Auntie who kept rejecting her. She took the book, thought about it, and said to her Auntie, "Auntie, I will treat you well in the future and be filial to you." Her words made Old Madam Fu and Fang Shuyun laugh.

The old lady smiled and teased her, "How can you treat your Auntie well?" Qin Jiao thought about it carefully and said, "Try your best." Qin Jiao said seriously with a small face.

"Oh, okay. Auntie, I'll be filial to you when Jiaojiao grows up," Fang Shuyun said with a smile.

"You're only filial to your aunt? What about your grandfather?" Qin Weiguo joined in the fun and teased Qin Jiao.

"Of course they are filial." Qin Jiao was amused.

She pretended to be serious on Jiaojiao's pink and tender face, which amused everyone.

However, they didn't know at that time that Qin Jiao, who was still a child in their eyes, would bring earth-shaking changes to the Qin Family in the future.

Qin Jiao had been in this strange world for nearly two years. Ever since he found out that he couldn't cultivate, Qin Jiao had a more or less casual attitude. To put it bluntly, he didn't know what he should do.

Ever since Qin Jiao gained consciousness through cultivation.

Every day, he would cultivate, cultivate, and cultivate again.

All she thought about was how to improve her cultivation. She rarely thought about anything unrelated to cultivation.

But one day, someone suddenly told her that she didn't need to cultivate anymore. She might not know what to do anymore.

But it was different now. Ever since she got this book, she had a thought in her heart. She hoped that her family would accompany her for a long time.

It was as if she suddenly had a goal, which made her feel alive.

Qin Weiguo and his wife were quite satisfied with their daughter's current appearance. They felt as if their daughter had grown up.

Today, since Qin Zhao's school was on holiday, Qin Jiao planned to ask him to accompany him to the bookstore to see if there were any books on Chinese medicine.

Qin Zhao naturally couldn't ask for more from his baby sister.

The next day, after breakfast, the two of them set off for the bookstore in the city center.

However, Qin Jiao didn't expect that he would have a problem with "being afraid of the cold".

It was already winter. B City was located in the north. Once winter came, the temperature dropped rapidly. It was very cold now.

But when he thought of those medical books, Qin Jiao gritted his teeth and went to the door to wait for Qin Zhao to get the bicycle.

When Qin Zhao pushed the bicycle to the door, Qin Jiao didn't say anything.

Instead, he urged Qin Zhao to hurry up and carry her up.

Speaking of which, most of the bicycles in this era didn't have a back seat. They could only sit on the front of the bicycle. It was very uncomfortable to sit on the front of the bicycle for too long.

For this reason, Qin Zhao wrapped the bicycle with layers of cotton pads to make it more comfortable for his baby sister.

Even so, Jiao still didn't want to sit on the bicycle. She hated the pain and didn't want to sit on it.

Seeing Qin Jiao's anxious look, Qin Zhao only thought that she was in a hurry to find the books. He didn't think much of it and quickly carried her up. Then, he rode the bicycle to the bookstore.

It wasn't easy to endure the cold all the way. Qin Jiao felt that his face was about to freeze.

Qin Jiao's heart ached for his little face that had been "destroyed" along the way. He thought that it would be better for him not to go out in the future.

When they arrived near the bookstore, Qin Zhao parked the bicycle and the two of them hurried to the bookstore.

A woman was guarding the entrance of the bookstore.

She was wrapped up tightly and rubbed her hands back and forth vigorously. She even blew into her hands from time to time.

When she saw Qin Zhao and Qin Jiao, she only glanced at them casually and let them in.

Qin Jiao thought that it would be warm once they entered the bookstore. However, he didn't expect that with the "expensive" price of coal, it would be impossible to heat a bookstore.

Qin Zhao didn't expect that Jiao would be so afraid of the cold.

However, when he thought about it, Jiao had been cooped up at home since winter and hadn't gone out. His house had a heater, so she wouldn't be cold.

Looking at Qin Jiao who was shivering in the cold, Qin Zhao's heart ached. He hurriedly urged her to hurry up and look for the books. He also nimbly helped her look for the books.

It wasn't that Qin Zhao didn't care about her and insisted that she look for the books by herself. It was better to move than not moving at all.

The situation was complicated now. Many books had been listed as "pornography" and confiscated.

As a result, most of the books in the bookstore were "red books" and "newspapers". There were very few other types of books.

After Qin Zhao and Qin Jiao quickly searched through the bookstore, they only found two books related to Chinese medicine.

One of them was "Chinese Medicine Sketches", which was about the introduction of medicinal herbs. (There were various titles in this book, which were self-made by the author. There was no historical basis, so it wasn't worth investigating.) The other book was "Acupuncture Techniques", which was about acupuncture.

Qin Jiao was disappointed, but she understood the current situation. In the end, she could only helplessly pay one yuan and eighty cents and take the two books away.

After waiting for a while, they finally arrived home. It was already noon.

As soon as they entered the house, Qin Jiao didn't have time to take off her clothes and rushed to the heater by the wall.

Qin Jiao took off her gloves and immediately put her hands on the heater. Immediately, a warm stream of air rushed from her hands to her whole body. It was extremely comfortable.

Old Lady Qin, who had heard the door open, came out of the kitchen and felt very distressed.

She hurriedly walked over and touched her granddaughter's small face. It was cold all of a sudden.

Qin Jiao was startled by the pair of hands that suddenly touched her face. When she saw that it was her grandmother, she sighed and hurriedly asked, "Grandma, why are you here?"

"Your grandfather and I miss you very much. Your grandfather has been talking about you all day long and waiting for you to come and see us. We waited for you for a long time, but you didn't come. We had no choice but to come and see you, you heartless little girl," Old Lady Qin said angrily.

"I've been obsessed with that medical book recently. I just finished reading it and was planning to see you and my grandfather tomorrow." Qin Jiao acted coquettishly towards Old Lady Qin.

"Alright, alright. I knew you were obsessed with him." The old lady laughed at her shaking.

She hurriedly asked, "Where did you go? Why are you so cold?

Take off your coat, in case you catch a cold. "Old Lady Qin helped her to take off her coat.

Qin Jiao followed Old Lady Qin's movements and replied, "I wanted to buy a few books about Chinese medicine. Qin Zhao happened to be on vacation, so I asked him to take me to the bookstore.

I didn't expect it to be so cold outside. I'm freezing to death. "

"Where's my grandfather? Why don't I see him?" Qin Jiao looked around and didn't see his grandfather, so she asked Old Lady Qin.

"He went to play chess with your Grandpa Li. He'll be back soon."

Old Lady Qin continued, "If you want to read books, you can ask your brother to buy them for you. It's so cold outside. Don't go out.

If you really can't, you can buy them when the weather gets warmer. "Qin Zhao was angry when he heard his grandmother's words as soon as he entered the house.

"Only Jiaojiao is your eldest granddaughter. I'm not. You really know how to order me around. I have no one to care about me. What a miserable life." Qin Zhao teased Old Lady Qin and Qin Jiao.

"Yes, I don't care about you. I don't care about you," Old Lady Qin replied.

"Okay, then I'm going to wander around the world. Take care."

After saying that, Qin Zhao made a gesture of opening the door.

"Let's go, let's go." Qin Jiao added fuel to the fire.

"Heh, you heartless little boy." Qin Zhao was unhappy and went over to Qin Jiao.

"Okay, stop messing with your sister.

Hurry up and take off your jacket. "

"Oh, you're finally feeling sorry for your grandson."

"I'm just worried that your sister will catch a cold." Old Lady Qin rolled her eyes at Qin Zhao.

"Hahahaha." Qin Jiao couldn't stop laughing.

"You child, don't laugh so hard.

I'll make you a bowl of ginger soup to get rid of the cold. "Old Lady Qin patted Qin Jiao's back.

When she saw that Qin Jiao was slowly calming down, she got up and went to the kitchen.

"Old Lady Qin, why are you here?" Qin Zhao saw Old Lady Qin enter the kitchen and asked Qin Jiao casually.

"Did you miss me?"

"Heh heh … I'm not going to believe you." Although Qin Zhao said that he didn't believe it, he actually believed it.

His grandmother and grandfather loved his sister dearly. If he wanted to talk about it seriously, it would take a long time.

"Then, did our grandfather come?"

"Did you see our grandfather in the house?" Qin Jiao said lightly.

"No, that's why I asked you."

"Then why are you asking me?" Qin Jiao cast a glance at him and said leisurely.

.....

Qin Zhao was speechless by Qin Jiao's words.

"I'll go upstairs and put the books away."

"Okay, change your clothes while you're at it. You're so cold after coming back from outside. Don't catch a cold again. Otherwise, they'll knock on my door."

Although Qin Zhao seemed to be complaining, he was actually concerned about him. Qin Jiao smiled at Qin Zhao in a good mood.

By the time Qin Jiao finished tidying up and came downstairs, Wang Chunhua had already started placing the dishes on the table. When she saw Qin Jiao coming downstairs, she hurriedly asked, "Jiao Jiao, are you done tidying up?"

"Yes," Qin Jiao answered casually.

Hearing Qin Jiao's perfunctory answer, Wang Chunhua didn't dare to get angry. She hurriedly went to the kitchen. She was really scared of Qin Jiao.

Qin Jiao pursed his lips when he saw Wang Chunhua running away.

Qin Jiao looked around and didn't see Qin Zhao, so he went to the kitchen.

"Are you done?" Old Madam Yang asked when she saw Qin Jiao.

"Yes, I changed my clothes. Qin Zhao told me to do so," Qin Zhao said lazily as he leaned on Old Madam Yang's shoulder.

"Well, your brother is finally reliable for once. The ginger soup is ready. Go outside and wait. The cooking here is very oily. Don't stay here. Be a good boy and wait outside. I'll bring the soup out for you later," Old Madam Yang coaxed Qin Jiao.

"Okay." Qin Jiao walked out lazily again.

"This child is so lazy all day. If we don't pay attention, she'll get sick easily. This kitchen is very oily. Her mother and I are afraid that she'll fall sick again if we don't pay attention.

Sigh, she's like a child who hasn't grown up yet. She's so worried all day, "Old Madam Yang complained to Wang Chunhua, who was cutting vegetables with her head lowered.

"What are you talking about? Jiaojiao is good-looking and cultured. She's also very sensible. She'll be blessed in the future."

Wang Chunhua said, but when Old Madam Yang couldn't see her, she pursed her lips. In her opinion, Qin Jiao was just lucky to be reincarnated.

In her village, every girl would help her family do chores from a young age. When she was older, she would go to the fields to help her family earn work points. She had never heard of any girl who would fall sick after staying in the kitchen for a long time.

However, Wang Chunhua didn't dare to express these thoughts. She wasn't stupid!

Old Madam Yang didn't mean to complain to Wang Chunhua.

It was just that she had noticed that Wang Chunhua seemed to be unhappy with Jiaojiao. At this time, Old Madam Yang naturally had to do a good job. She couldn't let any words that would harm Qin Jiao's reputation spread. At the very least, she had to do a good job on the surface.

As for what Wang Chunhua said just now, Old Madam Yang didn't care whether she was sincere or not. At least, she wouldn't dare to leak any information now. Otherwise, Old Madam Yang would use this as an excuse to punish her.

When Old Madam Yang brought out the two bowls of ginger soup, Old Master Qin opened the door and came in.

"Grandpa, my grandma said you missed me." Qin Jiao acted coquettishly to Old Master Qin.

"Hey, of course. I said I would come to see you earlier, but your grandma insisted on delaying it until today. She's holding us up." Old Master Qin complained softly to Qin Jiao about his old wife.

"I think she's holding you up to play chess with someone." Old Madam Yang rolled her eyes at him.

"Haha, it's nothing. I really miss our Jiaojiao." Old Master Qin quickly winked at his granddaughter.

Qin Jiao immediately said, "That's right, that's right. Grandpa definitely misses me. How can Grandpa Li and that chess game compare to me?"

When Old Master Qin heard this, he choked and awkwardly changed the topic. "Hey, this is ginger soup. It just so happens that I'm getting cold. Quick, give me a bowl."

Qin Jiao and Old Madam Yang looked at each other and couldn't help but laugh.

When her husband was young, he was as gentle as jade and had an elegant temperament. She didn't expect him to become more and more like a child now that he was old. The way he spoke was also becoming more and more like those military generals. No wonder people always said that old people were like children. Wasn't that exactly how he was now?

"This is for Jiaojiao and Qin Zhao. Do you really want to drink it? Do you really want to snatch food from the two children?" Old Madam Yang asked her husband.

When Old Master Qin heard this, he said ingratiatingly, "I'll get it myself. Take a rest."

"Forget it." Old Madam Yang then got up and went to the kitchen to get another bowl of soup.

"Grandpa?

Why are you here? "Qin Zhao had just finished his work and came out to see his grandpa sitting on a chair.

"I'm not here. I'm over there!"

Old Master Qin didn't dare to provoke his wife and his delicate granddaughter. However, he didn't hesitate to teach his grandson a lesson.

"No, Jiaojiao said that you weren't here. I was just expressing my surprise." Qin Zhao defended himself.

"I didn't say that ~" Qin Jiao unhurriedly refuted.

"Hey, no …" Ha!

Qin Zhao choked. Jiaojiao really didn't say it herself.

.....

"What are you talking about? You're trying to drag your sister into this. You're really something." Old Master Qin could tell that his grandson had been fooled by his granddaughter.

"Hey, hey. I really can't stay here any longer. One after another, they're looking down on me." Qin Zhao made a fuss.

"Then you can leave. No one's stopping you." Old Master Qin added.

"Haha, I'm really your grandson."

"Alright, stop fooling around. Hurry up and drink your ginger soup." Old Master Qin urged.

Qin Weimin and Song Yu 'e didn't go home for lunch unless something special happened.

When the three of them went to eat, Old Master Qin and Wang Chunhua had already taken their seats.

Ever since Wang Chunhua moved to Qin Jiao's house, she had been eating with them.

When Wang Chunhua first arrived, she was shocked when she saw that they had to prepare several dishes for a meal.

She grew up in the countryside and had never seen such a life.

Now, Wang Chunhua was used to such a life. Sometimes, when she went back to visit her family, Wang Chunhua began to despise the life in the countryside.

"Today, I played chess with Old Li. Old Li gave me something." Old Master Qin boasted to everyone.

Everyone knew that when Old Master Qin said "give", it meant that he lost a bet. After experiencing it so many times, everyone was no longer as curious as before. It was nothing more than a piece of handwritten calligraphy.

Old Master Qin looked at everyone's perfunctory expressions and couldn't hold it in anymore. He quickly took out something from his pocket.

Old Master Qin glanced at it. Oh, it was a flower.

Old Master Qin quickly explained when he saw his wife's expression. "Don't be fooled by the Yushui hairstyle. Look at how beautiful this flower is."
