    The boy was overjoyed. He thought that his death was imminent, but he did not expect someone to be able to save him! However, his illness…


    Xu Qing didn’t exin much and gave him 500 yuan to buy clothes and tidy himself up. She also wanted to see how far he could go. After all, it was difficult for him to even buy clothes with his appearance.


    The boy looked at the money in his hand with aplicated expression. Wasn’t she afraid that he would run away with the money? Although five hundred was not a lot, it was a lot for a homeless person. He suddenly understood and turned to leave.


    Xu Qing sat in the tea house with the three babies and waited. About half an hourter, a handsome young man carried a few bags and a box. They were probably new clothes. There was also a rented carriage behind him.


    Xu Qing’s eyes lit up. This boy was indeed smart and observant. Perhaps he could help her establish a business empire!


    “Master, I think you’re probably in a hurry to go back, so I took the initiative to find a carriage for you!” The little boy had already taken Xu Qing as his master.


    “Okay. Call me sister in the future.” Xu Qing nodded and brought the three children into the carriage. She said, “Let’s go together.”


    “Sister, I’d better stay outside.” The little boy looked at the cute babies with a lonely gaze.


    “Come up. It’s not contagious,” Xu Qing said calmly. She could tell his concerns at a nce.


    The little boy was very surprised and hurriedly went up. The carriage also headed towards Xu Qing’s straw hut.


    “What’s your name? How old are you this year?” Xu Qing coaxed the three children to sleep and asked softly.


    “I’m seventeen years old and don’t have a name. Please give me a name.” The little boy’s eyes were gloomy as he thought of the past.


    “Then your surname will be Xu, like me. Your name will be Sizhi.” Xu Qing raised her eyebrows. He was just a year younger than her! But he looked like he was only fourteen or fifteen years old, which showed how scrawny he was.


    “Thank you, Sister.” Xu Sizhi liked this name very much.


    “Reach out.” Xu Qing looked at his thin figure.


    Xu Sizhi reached out his hand without hesitation. Xu Qing checked his pulse, and her warm fingers on his wrist made his face blush slightly. However, his face was too pale and was really inconspicuous.


    “You’ve cultivated internal energy before?” Xu Qing asked.


    Xu Sizhi nodded.


    “No wonder!” Xu Qing discovered that the poison in his body had been suppressed by his internal energy. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have lived for so long. However, what puzzled her was that he was 17 years old this year. Even if he cultivated internal energy since he was born, he wouldn’t have an internal energy foundation of decades. How did he cultivate it?


    “How is my body?” Xu Sizhi asked anxiously.


    “What do you think?” Xu Qing asked.


    Xu Sizhi fell into deep thought. After a long time, he said, “When I was eight years old, I was discovered to have this illness. No doctor could help me. No one knew what was going on. A doctor said that I was infected, and then the people who approached me died. They died miserably, and my family threw me out. After that, I didn’t dare to go near anyone. It was only recently that I felt that I didn’t have long to live and wanted to find a ce to die. I didn’t expect to meet you, but…” He was worried that his illness would spread, but his sister said that it wouldn’t. He was at a loss, but he also felt guilty.


    After listening, Xu Qing roughly knew what was going on. This was a child from a powerful family and he had been set up.


    “You’re not infected at all. You’re poisoned by Gu poison!” Xu Qing had already determined that he was poisoned, but after taking his pulse, she realized that it was not ordinary poison.


    She hade into contact with Gu poison in the past, but most of her knowledge of Gu poison came from medical books. Therefore, she still needed time to cure the Gu poison. For now, she could only suppress it.


    When Xu Sizhi heard this, his expression changed drastically. He bit his lips tightly and hugged his head in distress. “It’s her! It must have been her!” Why was it that woman? Why did she do this?!


    Xu Qing didn’t say anything and continued to study the medical book Ying Zhiyao had left behind. Xu Sizhi only recovered hisposure when he reached the straw hut.


    “Let me remind you not to implicate me in your matter.” Xu Qing’s expression was cold. She didn’t have any power now. If she offended anyone powerful, that wouldn’t be something that a vige girl could resolve with medicine.


    “Don’t worry, Sister. I won’t.” Xu Sizhi clenched his fists.


    “If you don’t have absolute strength to deal with them, save your strength!” Xu Qing said to him while pushing the pram.


    Xu Sizhi really wanted to go back and take revenge on her, but Xu Qing’s words made hime back to his senses. That’s right, if he went back now, he would only die in vain! He recovered after a long time and his expression returned to normal. However, when he looked up at the home Xu Qing mentioned, his face twitched. Don’t me him…


    This was a home?


    A straw hut that was about to copse?


    The dpidated temple he lived in when he was wandering was better than this, right?
