Chapter 207 Getting younger and younger, father and son talk It’s just that the newly grown hair is brighter in color, which makes one know at a glance that this person is very healthy. There are also some physical changes, just like shedding skin, but not so exaggerated. Du Ruo was not a very naughty child since he was a child, but in the countryside, no matter how precious the children are, they are almost always raised in the wild. Some bumps and bruises, or cuts and burns from knives are inevitable. The scars and acne left by these injured parts, some of the shallow ones have been shed and new skin has grown back, while those with scars have begun to fall off. It was because an aunt who worked in a homestay came to clean Du Ruo's yard every two days and she cleaned diligently that the shed skin and hair were not discovered by Xiang Yuanyuan. "Honey, I noticed that your skin is getting better and better, and it feels so smooth." At the dinner table, Xiang Yuanyuan stared at Du Ruo for a long time, then reached out and touched and pressed Du Ruo's face, with a hint of envy in her tone. She is indeed careless, but Du Ruo's little changes accumulated over time have actually become very obvious. "Didn't I say that I've made some progress in my martial arts training? Now I'm just shedding my old skin, so there will be some changes in my appearance. If I make a big breakthrough in the future, there may be more changes."
Du Ruo said it casually, but in fact his transcendental state had already ended, which lasted for about a week. As the state disappeared, Du Ruo began to have some more guesses. Now, when the progress of "Three Flowers and Five Qi" is 25%, you will have Transcendental. What about 50? 75? 100? Will there be changes in every stage, from skin and fur? Bones and tendons? Bone marrow? Du Ruo was looking forward to it. He was looking forward to how it would transform. Could he just peel it off and pull it out? Although Du Ruo was just guessing, it could only be confirmed at that point. It was futile to guess now. However, this did not prevent Du Ruo from giving Xiang Yuanyuan a shot of prevention first. "Oh~~~" Xiang Yuanyuan dragged out the word, and then began to look at Du Ruo again with curiosity. However, the more she looked, the more unbalanced Xiang Yuanyuan felt. Du Ruo has deep eyes, and the black and white of her pupils are particularly distinct. The whites of her eyes used to be slightly yellowish. Although the overall shape of the eyebrows has not changed, the growth of the eyebrows seems to have changed. They are all pointing upwards and are very stylish. One adjective can be described as sword-like eyebrows. Then there is the hair, which is very thick, and the white hair that Du Ruo had mixed in with her hair before has completely disappeared. Finally, it's the skin. Now, Du Ruo has become a little stronger, but judging from his skin, there is no trace of martial arts training at all. His skin is white and rosy, and his complexion is really visible. This is why Xiang Yuanyuan doesn't understand Chinese medicine. The so-called rosy complexion is a sign of a healthy heart and sufficient qi and blood. Duruo's face is white and scarless, and her hair is black, dense and shiny. This is a sign of abundant liver blood and abundant kidney qi, and a manifestation of healthy liver and kidneys. The face is fleshy, and the skin is smooth, delicate and elastic, which are characteristics of a healthy spleen and stomach. It can be said that Du Ruo has really achieved the level where people cannot tell his age at this time. If you cover his eyes, people will believe that Du Ruo is seventeen or eighteen years old. Only with the depth of his eyes can people believe that Du Ruo is no longer a young man. "It's okay. I've started learning Chinese medicine recently. Combined with the theories of medicinal materials your grandfather taught me last time, I'll take care of your body by then, and you'll be able to do this, too." Du Ruo realized why Xiang Yuanyuan was looking at her seriously. She was just thinking about her age. It is said that women become more charming as they get older, but that refers to their figure. Xiang Yuanyuan actually started to have anxiety about her appearance after she turned 28. This is inevitable. Although her figure is fuller, her energy and complexion are inevitably not as good as when she was young. This is because Du Ruo has been moisturizing her frequently recently. And Du Ruo is not just talking, he is actually doing it. As his "spirit" improved and his learning ability became stronger, Du Ruo had more energy to explore the mysteries of the human body, and learning traditional Chinese medicine was actually the best way to do so. "Mmm, my husband is so nice~"
Xiang Yuanyuan nodded repeatedly, looking at Du Ruo with stars in her eyes, not caring that she was still at the dining table, and started to act coquettishly while rubbing Du Ruo's neck. "Eh~~" Li Qiyao was sitting on the side and couldn't help but let out a "hmm" sound, and she kept rubbing her arms with a look as if she had goose bumps all over the floor. However, when she looked at Xiang Yuanyuan, she couldn't hide the envy in her eyes. She is two years older than Xiang Yuanyuan and has no one to take care of her, so she is actually more anxious. "By the way, Qiqi, have you really decided to go back today and not play with us?" When Xiang Yuanyuan saw Li Qiyao's expression, she hurried over and took Li Qiyao's arm, looking like she really wanted to invite her to play together. "Then why don't I go back? And go with you guys?" Li Qiyao glanced at Xiang Yuanyuan, smiled, and said something jokingly. "Ahem, well, didn't you say your cousin is pregnant and you need to go back to visit her? Your cousin is more important. You should persuade her not to beat her husband during her pregnancy. You should also give her husband a holiday." When Xiang Yuanyuan heard this, she pretended to cough and then started talking about Li Qiyao's cousin. Yes, Li Qiyao’s cousin is pregnant. Li Qiyao received the news yesterday, so she decided to go back so soon. "Yes, yes, yes, whatever you say is right~" Li Qiyao just smiled, then glanced at Du Ruo, and sighed inwardly, after all, she was still a light bulb. After finishing her meal, Li Qiyao started to pack up, but there was not much to pack, but Xiang Yuanyuan took a lot of things for her. There were all kinds of medicinal liquor, fruit tea from Yang Chenguang's house and so on. Anyway, Li Qiyao's car was packed full. Xiang Yuanyuan and Li Qiyao still have a good relationship. As long as there is no emotional involvement, Xiang Yuanyuan is willing to share everything with each other. "Okay, let's go. Come back and play when you have time." Li Qiyao sat in the driver's seat, opened the car window, took out a pair of sunglasses and put them on, waved his hand and drove away. …… "Let's go to my house for dinner tonight. Qiqi has been at home these few days, and I've been missing Auntie's cooking." Xiang Yuanyuan snuggled up to Du Ruo, watched Li Qiyao drive away, and spoke softly. "Okay, it's a good opportunity to tell them about our plans to go on a trip." Du Ruo nodded. Li Qiyao had been here for more than ten days. On the first day, Li Qiyao went to visit Du Ruo's parents, but they only had a meal. Later, Xiang Yuanyuan did not go back for dinner in order to accompany Li Qiyao. I was planning to go out for a trip, so I might as well go back tonight. "By the way, we have to go see the little clouded leopard early tomorrow morning. We haven't seen it for a few days." Xiang Yuanyuan could not forget the clouded leopard family on the mountain. In her heart, the clouded leopard family on the mountain belonged only to her and Du Ruo, and she had never told anyone about it. Although it was said to be evening, Du Ruo and Xiang Yuanyuan actually returned home in the afternoon. Seeing Xiang Yuanyuan coming back, mother was extremely happy. She asked father to kill a chicken and took out the fattest and most delicious stinky mandarin fish that she had preserved. After sitting for a while, my mother started to busy herself in the kitchen, while Du Ruo and my father drank tea and smoked in the living room.
"Yaya came back to stay for a few days a few days ago and ate a lot of fish. If I hadn't hidden this, she would definitely not want to go back." While my mother was unwrapping the wrapped stinky mandarin fish in the kitchen, she was talking to Xiang Yuanyuan about what had happened at home in the past few days. Xiang Yuanyuan would hang around her mother, occasionally asking her how to make various dishes. She was very sweet-mouthed and kept coaxing her mother, causing the smile on her mother's face to never stop. "Why don't you arrange for us to meet Yuanyuan's parents?" In the living room, Dad, who rarely smoked a cigarette, smoked half of it before he spoke. "I will definitely go there after the New Year. There will be a family annual meeting at Xiang Yuanyuan's house before the New Year. I will meet with the relatives there at that time, and then I will discuss when it is appropriate. I will confirm the time then." Du Ruo nodded. He had actually planned this matter with Xiang Yuanyuan. Since his father happened to bring it up today, he might as well bring it up. "Well, you are not young anymore, so it is better to arrange it early. Next year I will not be serving in the village anymore, and your mother and I will be free by then." Dad nodded. He was afraid that Du Ruo had no plans, so he couldn't help but remind him. Besides, he would be free soon and didn't know what to do. Maybe he wanted to go through the daily routine of taking care of his grandson. "Why don't you go travel when you have some free time? There are so many places in China, and you are free now, so you can go more often and avoid any regrets later." Du Ruo had nothing to say about his father not being a village official. It was not easy to be a village official, and his father was not young anymore, so it would be better to let young people do it. Dad didn't say anything, he just took a deep puff of the cigarette, but Du Ruo knew that his father was definitely moved. "It's settled, Dad. You can plan your travel route soon. I'll buy you a new car. Next year, you can drive and take Mom to wherever you want to go. When you've had enough fun, you can come back to take care of the kids. I'll cover all the expenses." Du Ruo smiled and added fuel to the fire. "Okay, let's do it then, but don't tell your mom yet. Your mom is worried about the money. I'll do some ideological work first." As soon as Dad heard Du Ruo's plan, he immediately put out the cigarette in his hand, as if he had made up his mind, and nodded vigorously. No man can resist the temptation of a new car, even if Dad is already sixty years old. "Hehe, don't worry, I'm very tight-lipped. I'll ask my sister to persuade her when the time comes. I guarantee there will be no problem." Du Ruo smiled. "What's no problem?" At this time, my mother came out from the kitchen and asked curiously. "Mom, Yuanyuan and I are planning to travel for a while. We'll mail some local specialties back to you then." Du Ruo did not answer his mother's question, but began to change the subject.
