Divine Doctor Mommy Is A True Big Shot-Chapter 639: The Unblessed Marriage

Before long, Lu Yin and her fellow disciples were invited over by the manager.

As soon as Lu Yin and Hong Xuan, the brother and sister disciples, entered the Drunken Immortal Inn, Lu Yin started to grumble.

"Alas, Master Feng. Don’t blame me for not being loyal; if there’s anyone to blame, it’s the Wushuang Building for its outstanding food and drinks. The Drunken Immortal Inn just repeats the same old dishes, and this will drive away the customers. I went to spy on Wushuang Building for the sake of the Drunken Immortal Inn."

It could be said that Drunken Immortal Inn was deserted. Seeing Feng Bailing, Hong Xuan also felt somewhat embarrassed, knowing that Drunken Immortal Inn was opened by Ouyang Chenchen.

Feng Bailing and Ouyang Chenchen were close friends. Ouyang Chenchen had escorted Mr. Nan Chen’s mausoleum and the Daye Representative Team back to Daye, and now Feng Bailing was temporarily managing the Drunken Immortal Inn.

Hong Xuan and Feng Bailing were companions through adversity after all. Now, sneaking off to dine at Wushuang Building without supporting Drunken Immortal Inn made it seem like they were turning their backs on her.

"Bailing, I had no other choice. The medicinal cuisine at Wushuang Building is said to be able to beautify and nourish the skin. We are all women, and you should understand that we endured a lot this time going to Qinghe City. I’ve been sunburnt and windblown every day; my skin has darkened all over."

Saying this, Hong Xuan leaned close to Feng Bailing and inspected her face.

With this one glance, she immediately became envious.

Despite Feng Bailing being exposed to the wind and sun in the Red Scorpion Desert for many days just like her, Feng Bailing’s skin remained fair with a healthy blush, just like a peeled boiled egg, without any darkening whatsoever.

"There’s medicinal cuisine at Wushuang Building?"

Feng Bailing was slightly surprised.

"The medicinal cuisine at Wushuang Building is one of its specialties. It’s said to be carefully concocted from various valuable medicinal herbs, and only their distinguished guests have the privilege to enjoy it."

Lu Yin went there specifically to try the medicinal cuisine, and it seemed to truly have its effects.

"It seems that Wushuang Building is not just a simple replica of Chuyue Tower from the past; they came prepared. They are also proficient in pharmacology and medicine, with modern seasoning in their hands. Who exactly is behind Wushuang Building?"

Feng Bailing thought to herself, though outwardly she remained calm, simply asking the two to sit down.

"I’m not here to accuse you of anything, but do you know the origins of Wushuang Building?"

Only by knowing oneself and the enemy can one fight without fear of defeat. Feng Bailing currently knew nothing about Wushuang Building, so she had to investigate clearly before making any plans.

Wushuang Building had fine wines and modern seasonings, but these were not omnipotent.

Especially with some seasonings, overuse could inevitably lead to a cloying taste. Feng Bailing planned to improve the standard of Drunken Immortal Inn, and as for medicinal cuisine, she could also work on developing it.

Initially, Xinqi Village could only provide some fruits and vegetables, but now ’New Qi Village’-like settlements have been promoted in several countries, and the planting of medicinal herbs along with genetic seeds had already yielded relatively good harvests in the past few months.

With this, the supply of medicinal materials became even more abundant. Since Wushuang Building had medicinal cuisine, the Drunken Immortal Inn naturally did not want to be outdone.

However, further action still needed some time; let Wushuang Building enjoy its moment of pride a little longer.

Unfortunately, both Lu Yin and Hong Xuan were clueless about the origins of Wushuang Building.

Currently, the Zhang Brothers were not around, and Feng Bailing couldn’t contact Gong Xi either, so she had to figure out a way to inquire about Wushuang Building herself.

"If you want to gather information, you could go to Baidi City near Chu City. There’s a newly-built Soldier Inn there, and it’s said that a new King of Soldiers has arrived. Feng Luochen, Dongfang Yong, and I had planned to visit Baidi City, but it’s been delayed due to Dongfang Yong’s marriage affairs. Once Dongfang Yong’s wedding is over, we plan to head to Baidi City."

Seeing Feng Bailing in a dilemma, Hong Xuan actually pointed out a clear path for her.

The trip to Qinghe City undoubtedly benefited Feng Bailing the most.

But the three, including Hong Xuan, also grew significantly. Their experiences there made them acutely aware of their own lack of strength. They envied Zhang Dafa, who became the new King of Soldiers.

They didn’t have the same opportunities as Zhang Dafa. After discussing it among themselves, they were keen on going to Mercenary City to hone their skills, so they could redeem their family’s disgrace at next year’s Competition Among Ten Countries.

However, Mercenary Cities like Ka City and Qinghe City were too far away, and they were also concerned about the situation in Chu City, making it impossible for them to travel far.

After returning to Chu City, they learned that a new Soldier Inn had been built near Baidi City.

Apparently, many mercenaries had gathered there, and Baidi City had virtually become a new Mercenary City.

The three of them concluded that it was the best place for them to train.

Hearing Hong Xuan mention Dongfang Yong’s wedding, Feng Bailing remembered that the wedding between Dongfang Yong and Nalan Chun was just a few days away.

Ever since Dugu Wu mentioned the possibility of partitioning the family in front of Princess Consort Shun, she had been scared half to death.

Worried that Dugu Wu would really separate the family, she agreed to all of Dongfang Yong’s requests with unprecedented efficiency and even went to the Grandmaster Mansion to propose marriage on Dongfang Yong’s behalf.

The Grandmaster Mansion didn’t really care whether it was Dugu Wu or Dongfang Yong who married Nalan Chun—as far as they were concerned, as long as the family disgrace Nalan Chun could be married off, that was all that mattered.

They didn’t even need a dowry; they just asked about the wedding banquet, then agreed to the marriage between Nalan Chun and Dongfang Yong and chose a date seven days later.

Dongfang Yong was a loner by nature and had left home at a young age. He didn’t have many friends in Chu City, but Feng Luochen and Hong Xuan were among the few friends he had, and they readily agreed to help him prepare for the wedding.

"Speaking of Nalan Chun, she’s also pitiful. Although she belongs to the Grandmaster Mansion and is Nalan Yan’er’s sister, her mother died early, and she isn’t a legitimate daughter. The first time she got married... no one prepared anything for her the second time she got married either, not even a wedding dress."

Hong Xuan sighed with pity.

Although she was a woman, she had never been married and knew nothing about her family.

"Bai Ling, I heard that you did your own makeup when you got married. Could you help Nalan Chun with her makeup when the time comes?"

Hong Xuan pleaded.

Feng Bailing thought for a moment, as she just happened to want to see Nalan Chun.

Nalan Chun marrying Dongfang Yong, in a way, was a huge favor to her; moreover, Feng Bailing always found Nalan Chun’s schizophrenia quite odd.

Schizophrenia is mostly caused by environmental factors, often because of traumas experienced during youth or diseases that can trigger it.

Even with medicinal treatment, schizophrenia is challenging to cure. Nalan Chun’s last episode was severe, yet she inexplicably recovered in a few months without medication, which Feng Bailing found unbelievable.

"I’m technically his elder sister-in-law, so giving a hand is not so much to ask, as long as Dongfang Yong agrees."

Feng Bailing readily accepted the request.
