The 35th Spring of Miao's Skilled Hand

  Xiao Yu sat in front of the window, holding a copy of "Paradise Lost", but she wasn't reading it. Instead, she was staring blankly outside, her long black hair casually draped over her shoulders. Occasionally, a gust of wind would blow by, and a few strands of loose hair would dance in front of her eyes, but she didn't notice. Her eyes were large and hazy, with a hint of sadness, and the whole scene was like a painting, beautiful as a dream.

  Father's illness finally showed signs of improvement, and this improvement was not due to the expert's magical skills, but rather because of a young unknown person's casual massage. Although it is unbelievable, it is an indisputable fact. Should we ask him to come and take another look at father?

  This book doesn't have anything difficult, she knows that as long as she calls, he will definitely come back. However, she has a knot in her heart, she knows that this boy likes herself, although he never said it, during school days, he quietly stayed by her side, not noisy or annoying, but whenever she had trouble, he would stand up for her. She really wants to tell him, don't be so good to me, we won't have a result! But he doesn't give her this opportunity, because he never asks for anything, except for the initial joking confession, he never said "I like you" again, everything he does is under the name of a friend, although sometimes the excuse is very poor! There are countless people who try to win her favor, but only he has no desires or demands!

  Actually, it's not that I don't like him. He's very humorous and often makes me laugh with his words; he's very magnanimous and never gets angry even when I occasionally lose my temper; he's also very brave and dares to stand up for himself against those who dare to harass him excessively, and even leads a group of brothers to stand up for him; he's also very intelligent, and the team they formed, "Brotherhood Glory", is a legend in the entire school.

  But life is not just about these things, and perhaps very few people know that a family in the city who is not wealthy may be even more embarrassing than a rural family. Dad was injured and couldn't work, and the family relied solely on Mom's meager income. In order to allow herself to study with peace of mind, her younger sister secretly went to work in the south without finishing high school. When she learned about this news, she cried all night, vowing to let her family live a good life, can Guo Ye?

  When a person is the hope of a family, she no longer belongs to herself!

  Because I couldn't like Guo Yi, so I couldn't owe him affection!

  But not letting Guo Yi come, what about Father's illness? Just when there was a glimmer of hope, are we going to give up like this? Although Father doesn't say it out loud, I can sense his inner longing.

  "Bang!"

  A small stone accurately hit the glass, Xiao Yu was startled, and when she looked closely, she saw a boy standing outside the window with a smile as bright as sunshine. Xiao Yu stared at Guo Yao in a daze, her heart filled with an indescribable feeling.

  Half a moment later, Xiao Yu suddenly remembered to go and open the door for Guo Yao.

  Guo Yi looked inside with a sly expression and said in a low voice:

  "Is the old handsome guy still mad at me? Speaking of which, last time I really made him angry, if he's still not over it, then I won't go in yet, to avoid being driven out and hurting my self-esteem..."

  Xiao Yu burst out laughing and pulled Guo Yi in with one hand. She asked:

  "How did you get here?"

  "I made a bet with Uncle Xiao, he said that if I could cure his illness, he would give me one of his treasured possessions. Today I came to take a look, if it's cured, then I'll come to collect my winnings, but if it's not yet effective, I'll hurry up and get to the root of it, lest he welches on the deal!"

  Xiao Yu smiled bitterly, Guo Yi still hadn't changed, he was supposed to be helping but instead made himself out to be a debt collector.

  "Dad, Guo Ye has arrived."

  Guo Ye handed the fruit in his hand to Xiao Yu, and smiled at Xiao's father:

  "Hello, Uncle Xiao, how have you been lately? Has your body recovered a bit?"

  Xiao Fu's father said with a cold face:

  "What brings you here?"

  Guo Yi saw Xiao Yu carrying fruit into the kitchen and said with a smile:

  "Uncle Xiao, I'm here to treat your illness. Have you forgotten our bet? Hehe, once you're healed, you have to keep your promise and marry your daughter to me! Come on, let me take a look at your leg!"

  The old handsome man's face turned black with anger and shouted:

  "Get out of here, I'd rather die than let you treat me."

  "Hmph, you said you wouldn't look if I didn't let you, but now that it's in my hands, you can't help yourself, huh? Hehe~~~~"

  Guo Yi didn't say a word and suddenly lifted up the quilt.

  At this time, Xiao Fu's legs were much better than when Guo Yi saw him last time. Guo Yi still remembered that at that time, the blue veins on his legs were like twisted and thick earthworms, very frightening. Now, although his skin was still a bit uneven, the situation of the blue veins twisting had basically disappeared, and his originally pale skin now had some redness.

  "Hmm, recovery is going well, if I come again today, it should be almost healed!"

  "What did you say? Recovered?"

  Xiao Fu's voice was trembling, although he didn't like the smooth-talking guy in front of him who had ill intentions towards his own daughter. However, Guo Yao's words were extremely tempting to him. As a middle-aged man, if he wasn't paralyzed, not only would it greatly reduce the burden on his family, but he could also live a comfortable second half of his life.

  "Yes, it's curable! However, this treatment will be very painful, I don't know if you can bear it? If you're afraid of pain, I'll take some other measures, but the effect will be much worse!"

  Xiao Fu hummed:

  "What hardships haven't I experienced in this lifetime? What's a little pain compared to that?"

  "That's great!"

  Kuo Yi casually picked up a towel from beside the bed and handed it to him, saying:

  "Bite it back, I'm afraid you'll scare the neighbors if you shout out!"

  "And besides, you think I'm a kid, don't worry, even if it kills me, I won't cry out"

  Saying so, Xiao Fu hesitated for a moment, still biting the towel in his mouth, with a look of resignation. He seemed to have forgotten about losing his daughter, and Guo Yi smiled secretly, naturally not mentioning it either.

  Kuo Yizhang stretched out his arms and exercised his muscles, then sat up straight with a solemn expression, making a cutting motion with his hand. His hand was raised high, then suddenly chopped down. Xiao Fu watched his movements and felt a sudden jolt in his heart. What kind of diagnosis is this? This isn't examining the patient, it's chopping people!

  As soon as his hand landed on Xiao's father's leg, the old man couldn't help but shudder all over. Then, he found that it didn't hurt at all.

  Guo Yi secretly took a glance at the old man who was already sweating, and laughed wildly in his heart. His agile fingers moved gently on the old man's leg, sometimes rubbing, sometimes pressing. Although the strength was not grasped very accurately, the fine white energy that was as thin as a thread was enough to make up for this point.

  Xiao's father, who has been suffering from illness and pain for many years, has never had such a feeling. If he hadn't been holding a towel in his mouth, he would have already gotten up comfortably!

  Xiao Yu walked over with a cup of water, looking at her father's relaxed expression, her heart warmed up, and tears burst out. She stood quietly at the door, sometimes looking at Guo Yao who was bowing down to massage her father, and sometimes looking at her thin old father.

  As they watched, Xiao Fu's legs gradually returned to their normal color. Guo Yi stopped abruptly and wrapped the gauze he had prepared around his legs in a hurry, instructing:

  "This gauze cannot be moved, it can only be removed after three days. Now your legs are basically normal, but during the process of driving out evil and clearing poison just now, all the acupoints on your legs have been opened, and the internal emptiness is severe. In these few days, if you remove the gauze and see the wind, the evil wind will enter the body, not only will this leg be crippled, but there may also be concerns about life. Remember!"

  Xiao Fu quickly nodded, he didn't know if his own leg was fully recovered or not, but he knew it no longer hurt!

  At this time, Xiao Yu had come back to his senses and walked a few steps to Guo Yi's side, excitedly saying:

  "You think my dad's leg can be cured?"

  Kuo Yeh smiled and said:

  "It's impossible!"

  Xiao Yu's smile froze, and her eyes turned red. Xiao Bo's heart also skipped a beat. Guo Yi continued to say:

  "It's not possible, it's certain! Uncle Xiao's leg will definitely get better!"

  "Really?"

  Xiao Yu burst into tears and laughter at the same time, grasping Guo Yao's hand and saying emotionally:

  "Guo Ye, thank you!"

  Xiao Fu's heart suddenly calmed down, but he suddenly caught a glimpse of his daughter holding onto Guo Yao's hand and immediately let out an angry hum.

  Seeing Xiao Fu's murderous gaze, Guo Yi secretly sighed and quietly withdrew his hand. Xiao Yu didn't notice the small movement between the two of them and turned to ask her father:

  "Dad, did you hear that? He said you can recover! How are you feeling now? You... hey, Dad, why do you have the foot towel in your mouth?"

  Xiao Fu was taken aback and hastily took out a towel from his mouth to take a look, and indeed it was a foot wiping cloth!

  "Vomit!!!!!!"

  Kuo Yee saw that things were going badly and immediately took off running, with the old general's furious roar quickly echoing from behind:

  "Little rabbit, stop right there! Doesn't it hurt a lot? You dare to use a foot wipe on me?! I'm going to fight you!!!!!!"

  Kuo Yebian ran and thought, can you blame me for not recognizing the foot wiping cloth? I didn't know that was a foot wiping cloth, take advantage of it, I haven't even asked you for the bet yet! Such a big person with such a bad temper, if I had known earlier, I would have let you wrap yourself in gauze for a month!

  "Guo Ye!"

  Someone was calling his name, and he knew it was Xiao Yu just by the sound of the voice.

  Due to walking quickly, Xiao Yu's forehead was already beaded with sweat, her full chest rising and falling with each breath, her waist curvy and plump. Guo Yi shifted his gaze elsewhere, having been driven out of the house twice in a row, Guo Yi felt somewhat embarrassed, Xiao Yu also looked a bit awkward.

  The two walked shoulder to shoulder for a while before Xiao Yu broke the silence and said:

  "Guo Ye, let me treat you to dinner!"
