After the male supporting role stopped interfering, the female protagonist suffered

Xie Jiabao was sitting in the yard, drinking tea and fanning himself with a palm-leaf fan. He glanced at them indifferently and said, "You're back. What are you carrying in your backpack?"

"Herbs! My brother even accepted an apprentice!"

Zhou Yunning said proudly, he is worthy of being her brother, he is quite outstanding.

“Herbs!!!!”

Xie Jiabao was so shocked that he jumped up from his chair and looked at Zhou Hui in disbelief.

"Yes!"

Zhou Yunning was very accepting. In her eyes, her brother was omnipotent.

Zhou Hui took out a dustpan and started to dry the herbs. He planned to prepare some anthelmintic to take with him.

After all, there are many snakes, insects, rats and ants in the mountains.

"Scholar, you are really our Ivory Mountain's lucky star."

There are no doctors in Xiangyashan. If you are sick, you have to endure it or take folk remedies.

Many people died as a result.

Now that there are scholars here, they also have doctors in Xiangyashan.

"I promised Xianglan that I would teach her medicine. You can ask if there is anyone in the village who is willing to learn from me. I will teach them."

In Zhou Hui's eyes, it doesn't matter whether he releases one sheep or a flock of sheep, he doesn't care how many people there are.

"Okay! Okay! I'll go and inform them about this!"

Xie Jiabao left happily, he didn't expect to have such a good opportunity.

In the evening, Xie Jiabao came back excitedly with the news.

There were two girls and a boy in the village who were willing to learn medicine from Zhou Hui, but no one else was willing.

Zhou Hui nodded but said nothing.

The next day, Zhou Hui took Zhou Yuning to Shanshui County.

Originally, Xiangyashan was the closest to Qingshan County, but Zhou Hui wanted to know what happened to Shen Jian and He Lanxin.

They drove a ox cart and came to a wonton stall in Shanshui County.

They each ordered a bowl of wontons, and then heard people next to them talking about the Shen family in Shanshui County.

"Have you heard? The Shen family went to Shanghe Village to propose marriage and planned to take the girl to the Shen family as a concubine."

"What do you mean by concubine? For Master Shen? Isn't he already over fifty? Why does he want to take a concubine? Is his thing still good enough?"

"It's not the master of the Shen family, it's for the young master of the Shen family, the one from Shanshui Academy. You should be more kind! He is eating and drinking well, so the thing must be useful."

"Isn't the young master of the Shen family still married? Why did he take a concubine? This...isn't everyone so particular now?"

"Yes! But the Shen family's proposal was rejected by the He family of Shanghe Village."

"What? Rejected? This... that's the Shen family! The richest family in Shanshui County!"

"Yes! But it was quite embarrassing in the end. Miss He did not become Master Shen's concubine, but became a maid, that is, a concubine."

"Ah... this is too embarrassing! I thought she was a chaste woman who didn't love vanity. But in the end, she was just being coy and pretentious. Bah! What the hell!"

"Yes! I think she lost face in Shanghe Village. I heard that she even signed a contract to sell herself in order to enter the mansion."

"Hiss~ This is too much!"

*

In Shanghe Village, everyone admired He Lanxin's family and thought they had the backbone to directly reject the Shen family.

As a result, within two days, she went to work as a personal maid in the He family, and I heard that she even signed a contract to sell her body.

Because of this incident, the girls in Shanghe Village lost face and started cursing in front of the He family.

He's mother lay on the bed, speechless. She had rejected the Shen family's proposal, so everyone in the family was against her.

The daughter she protected fed her a mute drug and said that she was jealous of her being able to become the Shen family's concubine and wanted to enjoy the good life.

He's mother was both furious and tried to stop Lan Xin, but was beaten and kicked by the He father and son.

She couldn't get up, and she knew she couldn't stop Lan Xin.

She didn't understand why it turned out like this.

Although the world is difficult, becoming a concubine in a wealthy family is a good choice?

I've heard that among the upper class nobles, concubines are just objects that can be given away at will.

Her gaze fell on the light and finally she closed her eyes.

She hoped that in the next life, she would not become He Lanxin’s mother.

In Shanshui County, Zhou Hui took Zhou Yuning to the clinic.

"Brother, what are we doing here?"

Zhou Yunning was puzzled. They were not sick, so why did they have to go to the clinic?

"Selling ginseng. I was lucky enough to pick a ginseng when I was in the mountains."

Zhou Hui is short of money now, so he set his sights on getting ginseng from the mountains.

After his careful search, he found a hundred-year-old ginseng, which was of excellent quality and should be able to be sold for a hundred taels.

"Brother, you are so secretive! You actually hid the ginseng. Why didn't you tell me last night?"

Zhou Yuning was puzzled. Why didn’t he say anything?

"Why are you telling me this? Is this something important? Let's go! Let's sell it and buy something to bring back."

Zhou Hui brought Zhou Yuning directly to the clinic, ready to sell ginseng.

He Lanxin, who was beside Shen Jian, was dressed cleaner and more gorgeously than usual.

She placed her little hand on Shen Jian's shoulder and said sweetly and gently, "Ajian, do you have any news about Ah Hui?"

Shen Jian touched her little hand, his eyes fell on her, and said, "Why can't you bear to part with your childhood sweetheart?"

"How could that be? I just thought that he was a man who could read. If he could help you from behind, wouldn't that help you get into the government?"

He Lanxin has always treated Zhou Hui as a tool. It is her blessing that he can help her consolidate her position in the Shen family.

Shen Jian touched her waist, put his hand into her clothes, and gently pinched her face.

He Lanxin's body softened, and she said coquettishly, "Ajian, stop it!"

"Make a scene? How did I make a scene? Were you not feeling well last night?"

Shen Jian's tone was very ambiguous, and his movements became more and more outrageous.

He Lanxin's clothes were in disarray, and she began to breathe heavily.

The maid who was guarding outside the house heard the noise inside, her face flushed and she cursed: Shameless!

Zhou Hui and Zhou Yuning, who were on the street, had already received the money to buy ginseng and were preparing to buy some things before going back.

Zhou Yunning couldn't control her desire to shop. In addition to the necessities needed at home, she also bought a lot of things for her daughter's family.

Zhou Hui didn't stop her. Instead, he stood behind her with a smile and acted as her servant.

After she had bought enough, Zhou Hui took her to where he stored the ox cart.

Only then did Zhou Yuning realize that she had actually bought a lot of things.

She said embarrassedly: "Brother, I'm sorry! I...I couldn't control myself."

"It's okay. As long as you're happy. I have everything my brother needs."

Zhou Hui mainly came to buy paper, ink and pens.

Of course, he also planned to do the opening himself, after all, this was too expensive.

"Brother, you are so kind!"

Zhou Yunning felt that her brother was the best person in the world.

"You! You're just sweet-talking. Let's go! We should go back."

Zhou Hui indeed couldn't drive, but his spirit was strong, and under the control of his spirit, the cow drove particularly obediently.

After Zhou Hui returned to the mountain, he began to set up a paper mill. Why did he do this?

Mainly because paper is expensive.

Zhou Hui brought people to the mountain to pick mulberry bark.

The women and children in the village remove the skin and tear it into strips as wide as an index finger.

Add lime and water and soak it in a big pit for two months.

After finishing this task, Zhou Hui asked Zhou Yuning and others to go to the mountain to pick the fruits of the mulberry tree that flies were eating.

"Brother, what is this used for?"

Zhou Yuning was very confused. What was this thing used for?

"Make wine. This fruit is a good thing."

Zhou Hui nodded with satisfaction and walked up the mountain, thinking of looking for rock salt.

Zhou Hui climbed to the top of Ivory Mountain and looked at the bottomless lake with deep thought in his eyes.

"What's in this lake?"

Zhou Hui slipped and fell directly into the lake.

"Help!!"

Zhou Hui was splashing in the water. The original owner couldn't swim, but he could!

He swam toward the shore.

Suddenly, a force pulled him into the water, as if he was haunted by a water ghost.

Looking down under the water, the whole water world was very spectacular.

Not only are there various kinds of fish, but there are also bright lights not far away, flickering like fireflies.

Zhou Hui rushed directly towards the fluorescent light. When he arrived at the fluorescent light, he saw a huge stone door standing in front of him, which was three stories high.

"what is this?"

Zhou Hui landed in front of the stone gate and could actually hear his breathing, as if he was on the shore.

"Isn't this an ordinary world? How could such a strange place appear?"

"In front of the stone gate, there is not only no water, but you can also breathe."

Zhou Hui turned around and looked at the water curtain in front of him, which felt a bit like a water curtain cave.

But it doesn't seem like it, because there is a magical force that keeps the water outside the stone gate.

He turned his head and looked at the stone gate, on which was carved a winged bird.

The two doors on the left and right were exactly where she put her wings.

"What bird? It..."

Before Zhou Hui could finish his words, he fell straight down. The life pearl in his soul sea flew out and merged with the firefly light the size of a quail egg.

The huge light enveloped the surroundings and illuminated the entire lake.

*

When Zhou Hui woke up again, he was lying by the lake.

He stood up, holding his head, and shook it gently: "What's going on? Why did I sleep here? What's that light in the lake?"

Zhou Hui's gaze fell into the water, his eyes became deep, he was sure he was not dreaming.

What happened just now? Why did I faint?

Thinking of this, Zhou Hui quickly sat cross-legged and checked his body.

A quarter of an hour later, he opened his eyes and there was nothing wrong with his body.

However, his seven meridians and eight vessels were opened, and his current strength is far beyond that of ordinary people.

"Is there something wrong with the soul?"

In this world, he not only completely remembered everything from his previous lives, but he was also able to meet Hui Zhou.

Will the light that appears this time cause harm to the soul?

Zhou Hui checked it up and down, inside and out, and he found a problem.

That means there is something wrong with his soul sea.
