Fast Wear: A Different Life

Chapter 253 Qinling Sacred Tree (12)

From that day on, Ji Xiao began to prescribe medicine for Zhang Qiling to nourish his body, but she did not choose to cook the medicine herself.

It turned out that when she came to Beijing to study, she opened a medicine shop called "Jishitang" in the shop that Qi Heng bought for her within the Second Ring Road.

Most of the medicinal materials come from Qingcheng Mountain, and only a small amount needs to be purchased from external drug dealers.

Time flies. This medicine shop has been open for four or five years. It was just a small pharmacy at first, but in just four years it has developed into a large-scale medical clinic. (Private)

Since Ji Xiao was the only boss, the medicine and blood-replenishing decoction that Zhang Qiling took were all prescribed by her personally, and were cooked by a special person and sent to the courtyard.

As for their daily meals, they would send food to their doorstep or eat out. Zhang Qiling's cooking skills were only average, and Ji Xiao had no interest in cooking.

After all, in their previous life, when they went out, they either ate at restaurants or relied on Li Xiangyi's increasingly sophisticated cooking skills to satisfy their appetites. And he was reluctant to let Ji Xiao cook, so over time, Ji Xiao disliked cooking even more.

When she was practicing in the mountains, there was someone to cook for her. When she was at home, the nanny or her parents would occasionally cook for her. Therefore, Ji Xiao cooked even less frequently in this life, and there was only one time in Changbai Mountain.

Time flies. After more than half a year of careful recuperation, Zhang Qiling finally recovered to the state of a normal adult or even better.

Now his face is ruddy and radiant; however, despite this, his figure has not become plump - after all, it is a result of long-term habit. However, it is worth mentioning that since practicing Yangzhou Man, the vitality in his body has become stronger.

At this time, Zhang Qiling, except for occasionally showing some other expressions on his face when facing Ji Xiao, was still cold and silent to others. Even if he would give Ji Xiao some verbal responses at ordinary times, such responses were often very brief, just a little more than others.

In fact, strictly speaking, his so-called "expression" is not a true expression of emotion, but more of a complex and diverse expression of his inner emotions through his eyes. Fortunately, Ji Xiao has been with him for a long time and knows him well, so she can understand the meaning behind these eyes.

On this day, the entire city of Beijing was covered in snow, and the sky and earth were covered in silver. Ji Xiao and Zhang Qiling were leaning against each other in the warm house. Ji Xiao leaned comfortably on Zhang Qiling's shoulder, chewing the fruit in her hand and looking at the scenery outside, and asked softly: "Now that your body has recovered, when do you plan to set off to find your memories?"

During these six months, the relationship between the two has undergone a subtle change, even going beyond the scope of ordinary friends.

At this moment, Zhang Qiling quietly smelled the elegant fragrance emanating from Ji Xiao, the emotions in his eyes surging like the tide, and finally returned to his usual calmness.

He gently hugged Ji Xiao who was leaning on his shoulder, and after thinking for a moment, he slowly said: "After the beginning of spring next year, I plan to go to Tibet first."

Hearing this, Ji Xiao raised her head and stared into his eyes, and asked softly, "So this Spring Festival, are you willing to go to my house with me to celebrate the New Year?"

As soon as he finished speaking, Zhang Qiling nodded without hesitation and replied, "Okay." However, when he gave this answer, he did not think deeply about the meaning behind it.

It was not until two days later, when he and Ji Xiao arrived at her home, that he suddenly realized that the relationship between them was no longer the same as before, and Ji Xiao still had relatives alive.

Recalling that his age was unknown, he only remembered the knowledge about the tomb. Moreover, in his impression, he had either been immersed in the exploration of the ancient tomb or guarding in front of the bronze door. Coupled with the occasional amnesia symptoms, he naturally could not remember whether anyone had taught him the etiquette and norms for the son-in-law to visit.

So, now faced with such complicated human relationships, he really doesn't know how to deal with it.

Zhang Qiling followed Ji Xiao into the living room, feeling a little uneasy. When he saw Ji Xiao's parents, grandparents, he greeted them nervously.

Ji Xiao's grandparents and mother looked at Zhang Qiling with satisfaction, their eyes full of admiration.

However, only Qi Heng showed obvious hostility towards Zhang Qiling. He looked at Zhang Qiling with disdain, but because his waist was tightly held by his wife beside him, he could only swallow his bitterness and could not say anything. So even though he was dissatisfied, he did not dare to easily make things difficult for Zhang Qiling.

When Qi Tiezui heard Zhang Qiling's name, he was suddenly stunned. It turned out that when he was still with Master Fo in the early years, he had met Zhang Qiling, the patriarch of the Zhang family.

However, Zhang Qiling was still a child at that time. If he had not left early and came here, he would probably have returned to dust like Zhang Dafoye.

Thinking of this, Qi Tiezui couldn't help but comfort himself in his heart: "Maybe it's just the same name, it can't be such a coincidence." After some self-comfort, he finally put his mind at ease.

After all, such coincidences are too rare, and so much time has passed, who can guarantee that everything will remain the same? So, he decided not to think too much for the time being, so as not to affect the current situation.

The main reason is that he has never seen the grown-up Zhang Qiling, so he can accept Zhang Qiling with peace of mind; otherwise, once he knew that this person was that person, he would definitely go crazy.

Because Zhang Qiling’s real age is enough to be Ji Xiao’s grandfather, but Ji Xiao doesn’t mind.
