Chapter 592 Watching the Children Leave
The next day, Ye Shenge came to the restaurant and was surprised to see the children's father still at home. She then watched the two dispirited children sit down, suppressing her curiosity.
"Good morning, Mom."
"Good morning."
"Did you sleep well last night?"
"Mhm."
Zi Yisheng poured a glass of warm water for his wife first, and seeing the curiosity in her eyes, he didn't answer.
After greeting her mother, Xiao Mi'er silently dawdled. Seeing Ah Ning packing her bags in the morning, she knew that Dad was really going to send them away. She hoped that Mom would soften her heart and keep them.
After the meal, Zi Yisheng helped his wife for a walk in the courtyard. When she saw the luggage placed on the ground, Ye Shenge looked back in shock.
"I'm sending them, brother and sister, to the training grounds."
"For how long?"
"At least one summer vacation, and no time limit at the longest."
Ye Shenge turned to look at the two children. She held back her emotions and still smiled at them. As long as it was for their own good, she could endure it even if she was reluctant.
"When you get there, listen to the instructors. Don't cry if you get hurt."
"Wuwuwu, Mom, can I not go?"
Xiao Mi'er hugged her mother's leg and wailed, but she was gently pushed away.
"Mom looks forward to the day you get approved by the instructors to come home."
Ye Shenge then touched her son's little face. She wasn't too worried about this child. In fact, entering the training camp had long been on the agenda, it just started a bit earlier than expected.
"Just take care of yourself."
"I understand, Mom."
"Go on."
Watching the children being put into the car, Ye Shenge's tears still flowed. This was the second time they were separated from her, and in the future, such scenes would only become more frequent.
"Goodbye, Mom!"
"Goodbye!"
"This is the only way I could think of to discipline Xiao Mi'er."
"Mhm, very good."
Zi Yisheng hugged his wife and watched the car disappear from their sight.
"Let's go back. During this time, let Master's successor get a good understanding of your condition."
"Are we going back?"
"I contacted home before we left."
"Then it's soon. It's also hard on Master for worrying about me every day."
"As long as you are well, everyone is willing."
Ye Shenge nodded with a smile, looking at the person accompanying her at a leisurely pace, wondering if he was not going to work.
"Did you take today off?"
"No, I have no time to rest. I'll be going to work soon."
"Busy person, hurry up and go. Come back early tonight to have dinner with me."
"I promise."
It was rare for the children to be away, so he had to monopolize his wife's time.
After sending off the children's father, Ye Shenge lay on the soft couch in the pavilion, watching the quietly blooming lotus flowers. The flowers bloomed silently, with gentle affection, and life was peaceful and the heart was at ease.
"Elder Fan is back."
"Mhm, where is Shenge?"
"Madam is enjoying flowers in the pavilion."
Ah Sen looked at the unkempt person beside him. People with ability were indeed different.
Xi Rusheng stood outside the pavilion and saw a beautiful but frail beauty at first glance, regretting the unfairness of the world.
"Shenge isn't asleep."
"Master, you're back!"
Ye Shenge happily quickly put on her shoes and stood up. She also nodded at the stranger beside her.
"I'm old. Going out once took all my strength."
"Gu Miao, quickly have Aunt Zhen prepare food. They must have missed dinner."
Ye Shenge extended her hand to invite the stranger to sit, while she helped her master to sit down on the side.
"This is Xi Rusheng, a very talented but unrecognized person."
"This is my disciple, a lazy person with talent who learns useless things."
The two shook hands and smiled at each other. In Elder Fan's heart, neither was satisfactory.
Xi Rusheng was very direct. Without waiting for Elder Fan to speak, he took her pulse.
"It's as you said before, but her body is even weaker than imagined."
"Alas~~ This girl has had a difficult life. She was poisoned by a villain and after finally recovering, she had to have a large blood transfusion to detoxify. All of it was wasted."
"Blood is fundamental. Even if it's nourished later, it won't be as good as the original. It's a bit weak, but if maintained well, it can guarantee that she won't get sick again and can live a long life."
Ye Shenge liked hearing the word "longevity." The longer she lived, the less pain those around her would suffer.
"Madam had an episode yesterday. Did it have a significant impact?"
Gu Miao spoke at this moment, and Ye Shenge put her hand to her forehead.
"What's going on? I took her pulse before I left."
Elder Fan's face suddenly darkened. One by one, they didn't know how to take care of her.
"She was angered by your most beloved Xiao Mi'er."
"Uh, this, she's clearly very sensible."
Ye Shenge recounted Xiao Mi'er's actions in a soft voice and saw her master's slightly distorted face. He wanted to be angry but also felt soft-hearted. It was evident how adept Xiao Mi'er was at winning people over.
"I must punish her!"
"She's been sent to the training camp. You won't see her for at least two months."
"Hmph, she ran fast."
Ye Shenge couldn't help but smile at her master's insincere words. The older he got, the more he doted on his children.
"You should smile more, smile from the heart. In fact, your pulse still shows signs of stagnation, which is also one of the reasons why your body is deteriorating."
"Yes, there are no worries at home, so I'll be happier from now on."
"But there are no happy things or people at home either. Look at this family, one by one, with black faces. How can I be happy facing them every day?"
Ye Shenge was deliberately teasing the people around her. As soon as they heard about her medical consultation, they all came to listen.
"Madam, we don't have black faces, we're just naturally dark-skinned."
A group of people laughed for a while, trying to relax their serious faces as much as possible.
In the meantime, Xi Rusheng had written a treatment plan, including learning Elder Fan's special acupuncture techniques.
Elder Fan looked at it first, and after reading it, he nodded with satisfaction. He had truly found a successor this time.
Ye Shenge only read the first few items before raising her eyebrows. Was this person her teacher? She had planned her daily schedule, including waking up and eating times, one by one.
"Please follow the plan strictly. This way, both Mr. Fan and I can guarantee to control your condition to the best within three years."
"Okay, thank you, sir."
"No need to call me sir, just call me by my name. No one outside will respectfully call me sir."
Nowadays, calling someone "sir" was usually a sign of respect for capable individuals, but in her previous life, it was just a form of address for men.
"You can call him Senior Brother too. Since he's going to learn my skills, he's an outer disciple."
"Yes, Master is right."
Xi Rusheng still stood up solemnly and bowed to Elder Fan. Although it wasn't a formal disciple-acceptance ceremony, it was appropriate.
"Good, you kid will stay here and take good care of your junior sister. All the herbal resources she has can be supplied to you."
Elder Fan even whispered a few words to his junior disciple in a feigned low voice. With each item he mentioned, Ye Shenge's eyebrows would raise a little higher. They were truly making a great sacrifice.
