Stay away from beasts in the world of Siheyuan

After Sun Xiaoli sent Zhang Xiaolong away, she planned to clean up the house. While she was wiping the table, Zhang Xiaolong pushed open the door and walked in.

"Xiaolong, didn't you go to visit someone? Why are you back so soon? Did something happen?"

"It's okay. Brother Xu's fiancée is here today, and he asked her to come back and pick you up."

Zhang Xiaolong grabbed the cup on the table and drank the boiled water in it in one gulp.

"Hey, slow down, who can snatch it from you?" Sun Xiaoli looked at Zhang Xiaolong's way of drinking water and gave him a blank look in anger.

"Hey, I'm thirsty." Zhang Xiaolong didn't care about Sun Xiaoli's rolling eyes. He smiled and put the cup of water in his hand on the table. Then he said, "Let's go now."

"Idiot, wait for me to change my clothes." Sun Xiaoli didn't even bother to roll her eyes. She turned around and walked into the bedroom.

A moment later, Sun Xiaoli came out of the bedroom wearing a goose yellow sweater and black pants.

"Hey, whose daughter-in-law is this? Why is she so pretty?" Zhang Xiaolong saw his wife coming out and hurriedly went up to her and said teasingly.

"You look so dead~" Sun Xiaoli patted Zhang Xiaolong's shoulder with a smile and said coquettishly.

"Hey, wife, let's go now!"

"Let's go." Sun Xiaoli put on her coat and followed Zhang Xiaolong out of the house.

There was one more person on the bicycle on the way back, so Zhang Xiaolong's speed slowed down significantly. When he returned to Xu Changping's house, it was almost ten o'clock.

"Brother Xu, this is my wife, Sun Xiaoli." As soon as he entered the room, Zhang Xiaolong couldn't wait to introduce his wife to Xu Changping.

Then he said to Sun Xiaoli: "Xiaoli, call me Brother Xu."

Sun Xiaoli already knew that Xu Changping was not as old as the two of them, so she followed Zhang Xiaolong's introduction and called out:

"Hello, Brother Xu."

"Hello, this is my fiancée Yang Xiaoyue, and this is Xiaoyue's sister Xiaomi." Xu Changping did not correct Sun Xiaoli's way of addressing her. If he could convince Zhang Xiaolong, Zhang Xiaolong would have stopped calling him Brother Xu a long time ago.

In fact, Yang Xiaoyue knew it when Xu Changping entered the study just now, and was just wanting to see what he was going to do next.

Zhang Xiaolong knocked on the door. When Yang Xiaoyue finished packing and came out of the study, she just saw Zhang Xiaolong's back as he left.

"Sister Xiaoli." Yang Xiaoyue said to Sun Xiaoli with a smile.

Xu Changping saw that everyone was standing at the door, and smiled and asked them to sit down. Yang Xiaoyue took the opportunity to ask Sun Xiaoli to sit on the sofa. After a while, the two of them started chatting and laughing.

Xu Changping pointed to the chair next to him and said to Zhang Xiaolong who was standing next to him:

"Sit here and I'll show you."

Zhang Xiaolong saw the pulse pillow on the table, walked over with a smile and placed his wrist on it.

"Yeah, it's not bad, no big problem."

"Hehe, although we were away for a long time this time, it wasn't an urgent job, so we had a good rest on the way." Zhang Xiaolong said with a smile.

"Well, I stewed some medicinal food today. You should take good care of yourself and try to give birth to a big fat boy as soon as possible." As soon as Sun Xiaoli came in, Xu Changping knew that these two people didn't have any children yet.

"Brother Xu, to be honest with you, the elders from both our families are trying to urge the baby to come, but it just won't come! Why don't you help my wife and take a look at her too?" Zhang Xiaolong said worriedly when he heard about the birth of the child.

"Okay, call your wife over! Just tell her that I want to see if she is suitable for today's medicinal food." Xu Changping thought for a moment and said in a low voice.

"Xiao Li, come here and let Brother Xu take your pulse to see if you are going to have a good meal today." Zhang Xiaolong understood the meaning of Xu Changping's words and greeted Sun Xiaoli with a smile on his face.

"What do you mean, are you enjoying the meal?" Sun Xiaoli asked curiously as she stood up and walked over here.

"Before Brother Xu stews the medicinal food today, we need to check whether your body is suitable for drinking it." Zhang Xiaolong explained.

"Can't we just drink medicinal food casually?" Sun Xiaoli sat in the seat that Zhang Xiaolong had given up, and said with a puzzled look on her face.

"No, we also need medicinal food. What's more, the medicinal food I make is very powerful." Xu Changping explained gently.

"Is that so?" Sun Xiaoli looked at Xu Changping with doubt as he took her pulse.

Unexpectedly, after taking Xu Changping's pulse, his brows began to frown.

"What's wrong, Brother Xu? Is there any problem?" Zhang Xiaolong asked nervously when he saw Xu Changping's serious face.

"What's wrong with me? I haven't even had a cold this winter." Sun Xiaoli said nonchalantly.

"Don't talk." Zhang Xiaolong said to Sun Xiaoli in a stern tone.

"You..." Sun Xiaoli wanted to say something, but when she saw Zhang Xiaolong's serious expression, she swallowed it back.

After a while, Xu Changping let go of his pulse and asked seriously:

"Do you usually drink medicinal food?"

"Not very often, I just go back to my mom's house occasionally and drink with them."

Sun Xiaoli was also a little nervous. It was just some medicinal food that she drank occasionally. Could it be that she got sick from drinking it?

"The medicinal food you drink is not from the same recipe, right?" Xu Changping asked again.

"I don't know about that! It may not be a recipe, what's wrong?"

Sun Xiaoli didn't expect that this Brother Xu mentioned by Zhang Xiaolong was so powerful. He knew that she had drunk different medicinal foods just by taking her pulse.

"Although the medicinal food you drink is for nourishing your body, your body doesn't absorb it very well, which causes the medicinal power to accumulate in your body."

After saying this, Xu Changping pondered for a moment and then said:

“Since the medicinal materials used each time are different, some of them are mutually reinforcing and mutually restraining. This directly leads to them forming a delicate balance in your body. This is why you never get sick, as you said.

If the balance in your body is disrupted, it will directly lead to your poisoning.”

"Is medicated food so dangerous?" Sun Xiaoli asked after hearing Xu Changping's murmur.

"Medicinal food is not dangerous, but if you want to stay healthy you only need to drink one kind of medicinal food. Why do you need to drink so many kinds?" Xu Changping just thought about it for a long time but couldn't figure out the reason. Could it be that many people in Zhang Xiaolong's Yue family need to drink medicinal food?

"Brother Xu, can her condition be cured?" Zhang Xiaolong didn't care about having a baby at this moment, as his mother was about to die.

"It can be cured. Let her drink a few more bowls of the medicinal food I cooked. It will directly stimulate the medicinal power in her body, and I will help her find a way to absorb it."

The medicinal food that Xu Changping stewed today is a particularly powerful tonic food, so he called Yang Xiaoyue over.
