Do you have something for me?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chen Xiaozhao said, \"I wanted to call to report something to you.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Go ahead.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chen Xiaozhao hurriedly said, \"It's like this: yesterday, Gao Junwei and Xiao Yiqian both came to my grandfather’s pharmacy, begging him for treatment. My grandfather didn't know that Xiao Yiqian had offended you, and he almost gave Xiao Yiqian the half pill you rewarded him with last time!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ye Chen asked curiously, \"What? Is your family on good terms with Xiao Yiqian? Your grandfather was actually willing to give him such precious medicine?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ye Chen knew very well that in Shi Tianqi’s mind, the divine medicine he gave him was a treasure, as important as his own life.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Such an important thing, no one would rashly give to a stranger or someone with an ordinary relationship.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chen Xiaozhao hurriedly said, \"My grandfather and Xiao Yiqian’s father were sworn brothers; the two had many years of history, so our two families also have many years of history.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As she spoke, Chen Xiaozhao detailed the cause and effect of her grandfather’s relationship with the Xiao family to Ye Chen.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After listening, Ye Chen finally understood that the Xiao family had actually been a benefactor who helped Shi Tianqi back then.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And that Shi Tianqi could repay the Xiao family’s kindness for so many years because of a little favor back then also made him look at him with new eyes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>What made him even more satisfied was that Shi Tianqi could distinguish right from wrong and, for his sake, did not hesitate to break with the Xiao family.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Although Ye Chen was the young master of a top family in Jingcheng, he had left the family with his father at a young age to struggle for survival. After his father died unexpectedly, he could only survive in an orphanage, tasting the cold and warmth of the world.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was also in the orphanage that Ye Chen developed a character of knowing gratitude and repaying kindness.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Auntie Li from the welfare home had helped him, so even if he faced the Xiao family and suffered all their insults, sarcasm, and personal attacks, he still asked Old Mrs. Xiao to help and borrow money to treat Auntie Li’s illness.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xiao Churan had helped him, so even if he looked down on the trashy Xiao family and his own bizarre father-in-law and mother-in-law, he was unwilling to leave Xiao Churan.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Precisely because he was a person who knew how to repay kindness, he felt more favorable toward Shi Tianqi.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It seemed that Shi Tianqi would surely become his loyal follower in the future.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Since Shi Tianqi was so loyal, he should give him some benefits.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thinking of this, Ye Chen decided to go to Shi Tianqi’s Jishitang in the afternoon and give him another pill he had refined last time.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That time, Ye Chen had refined thirty pills in one go, gave away a few, and still had more than twenty left.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For him, this medicine was almost easy to get, and for someone like him who practiced the \"Nine Profound Heaven Scriptures\" and had spiritual energy in his body, it had no practical use, so giving him one was almost zero cost.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Moreover, Ye Chen also hoped to let these people in Jin Ling know that he was a person who clearly distinguished between rewards and punishments.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If you don't do things well, you must be punished!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, if you do well, you must be rewarded even more!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Shi Tianqi had done very well this time, so he would go and reward him with a divine medicine he dreamed of in the afternoon.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thus, Ye Chen asked Chen Xiaozhao, \"Is your grandfather at Jishitang this afternoon?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Yes.\" Chen Xiaozhao asked excitedly, \"Master Ye, are you coming?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ye Chen hummed and said, \"I'll go over and take a look in the afternoon.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Great, Master Ye!\" Chen Xiaozhao cheered and said, \"Then I'll go tell my grandfather now, he will be very excited!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After cleaning up the kitchen, Ye Chen just came out and saw Xiao Churan was ready to go out, so he asked, \"Wife, are you going to the studio?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xiao Churan shook her head and said, \"Mom called me and said she has a friend who wants to renovate a villa and wants me to take this order. I'm going to take a look.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ye Chen hurriedly asked, \"Which villa area?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xiao Churan said, \"Jiangpan Villa, right by the river.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ye Chen smiled and said, \"That's perfect, you can drop me off at Jishitang on the way, I'll go see Divine Doctor Shi.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xiao Churan asked in surprise, \"You want to see Divine Doctor Shi? Why don't I go with you, we can buy something and go see the old man!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xiao Churan was very grateful to Shi Tianqi because she always felt that it was Shi Tianqi’s miraculous hands that cured her father’s high paraplegia.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ye Chen smiled and said, \"You don't need to worry, just drop me off and go do your business, I can go see Divine Doctor Shi.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xiao Churan said, \"That’s not very appropriate...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ye Chen smiled and said, \"There's nothing inappropriate about it. Besides, Divine Doctor Shi has a strange personality. If we go together, he might not be happy.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hearing this, Xiao Churan nodded and said, \"Okay then, you go first. If possible, make an appointment with Divine Doctor Shi, and we'll invite him to a meal.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Good!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The couple went out together, Xiao Churan drove, and carried Ye Chen toward the outskirts of the city.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Passing by Jishitang, Ye Chen got out of the car, told Xiao Churan to drive carefully, and walked into the entrance of Jishitang.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Shi Tianqi was seeing a patient at the pharmacy. Suddenly seeing Ye Chen enter, he was immediately excited, hurriedly stood up to welcome him, and said, \"Master Ye, you are here!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ye Chen smiled slightly and said, \"You go ahead, don't worry about me.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Shi Tianqi nodded and hurriedly greeted Chen Xiaozhao, who was preparing medicine in the back, \"Xiaozhao, Master Ye is here! Come out and entertain him!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chen Xiaozhao immediately dropped her work, her cheeks flushed with two red clouds, and she walked over.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Master Ye, you are here!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chen Xiaozhao’s voice was crisp and sweet, and there was an innocent and lively smile on her face, especially the two shallow dimples, which looked particularly lovable.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>What surprised Ye Chen even more was that unlike other women, Chen Xiaozhao didn't always have a faint scent of perfume; she had a faint, fresh fragrance of medicinal herbs.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Most pharmacies had a very heavy medicinal smell, which couldn't be called fragrant at all, but the scent on Chen Xiaozhao was refreshing, and even had a calming effect.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ye Chen looked at her and smiled, \"Now that your grandfather’s health has recovered, you have retired to the background and are helping out?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Yes.\" Chen Xiaozhao smiled sweetly, \"But I don't just help out all the time. Grandfather sees five patients himself every day, and I see the rest.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ye Chen nodded and said, \"Your medical skills are already very high. I believe it won't be long before you become a little divine doctor famous in Jin Ling.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"How could that be.\" Chen Xiaozhao said shyly, \"My medical skills are far worse than my grandfather’s, and even further from yours, Master Ye...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At this time, Shi Tianqi sent away the patient and said to the shop assistant in the pharmacy, \"Greet the patients waiting for consultation and tell them that a distinguished guest has arrived, so I need to pause the consultation to entertain him first. Please forgive me.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After speaking, he immediately walked to Ye Chen, respectfully cupped his hands and bowed, saying, \"Hello, Master Ye!\"\u003C\u002Fp>",1366,"2026-06-17T16:51:23.531Z",1,"Gemini 3.1 Flash Lite","2603942b798adea9b0b8e83a6be2ffbba4cad7871c8652dd85fffd7f5282a934","the-dragon-son-in-law-chapter-198","the-dragon-son-in-law-chapter-196",1000,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fthe-dragon-son-in-law-cover.jpg"]
