Guo Xinning’s eyes flashed when he heard his father’s thoughts. He really wanted to tell his father that, despite appearing approachable, Feng Jiu was actually indifferent and difficult to approach. The Guo family would have a difficult time recruiting her. However, after giving it some thought, he simply stated, “Yes, I know.”
“When your elder brother is not at home, you must make every effort. This time, when you go out with your grandfather, you must observe and learn more.” He advised him before telling him to go back and rest.
Guo Xinning left the courtyard and was prepared to go to Feng Jiu’s courtyard to inform them that he would accompany them the following day, but he ultimately decided not to. After seeing his grandfather, he returned home to sleep.
The following morning, at dawn, Patriarch Guo walked to Feng Jiu’s courtyard, accompanied by several guards carrying trays covered with red clothes. As soon as they entered the courtyard, they noticed a puppy-like silver wolf squatting at the door, staring at them with bloodthirsty and ferocious eyes.
Patriarch Guo did not dare to be careless after seeing the silver wolf. Instead of approaching, he smiled and said, “I’ve come to bid your master farewell and bring him some gifts. Please call your master. I’ll wait right here.”
Hearing this, the silver wolf withdrew its gaze, opened the door with its head, and entered the room.
The guards behind him were quite perplexed. It was odd that their Patriarch had such an attitude towards a small pet, and it was also odd that he stood in the courtyard without approaching the side room.
Feng Jiu, inside the room, had just gotten up and washed up. She got up early because she had to return today.As she prepared to leave the room, she heard a voice outside.Not long after that, she saw the silver wolf coming in.

She moved her hand and threw a medicine pill to the silver wolf. Then she walked out and into the courtyard, where she saw the Patriarch of the Guo family approach with a smile. “Is Young Master Feng already awake? Sorry to trouble you.”
“I got up a little early because I’m in a hurry to get on the road,” Feng Jiu said, making an invitation gesture. “Please take a seat, Patriarch Guo.”
“I will not sit. I’m here to deliver these things.” He said, moving sideways and motioning for several people behind him to come forward. “These are the gifts intended to compensate for Great Elder’s medical treatment. I hope Young Master Feng will accept it kindly.”
He opened the red clothes and stood by while looking at Feng Jiu, wondering if she was satisfied with these things.
When the red cloth on the first tray was lifted, a pair of black pearls the size of a disc was revealed. Feng Jiu was astonished when she saw such a large pair of black pearls appear in front of her.
“This is the deep sea’s finest black pearls. It has always been a treasure of mine, and I hope Young Master Feng enjoys it.” Master Guo stated. When the second tray was uncovered, there was a precious spirit herb on top of it.
“This purple ginseng is a thousand years old. People say that purple ginseng is a hundred times more effective than ginseng and that just a small piece can bring anyone back from the dead.” Master Guo noticed a flash of emotion in Feng Jiu’s eyes when she looked at the tray, and he knew she liked these things.
He smiled as he removed the red cloth from the third tray. “These include items such as precious ancient jade with defensive charms engraved on it, as well as my family’s collection of medical books. Although these things are valuable, they are not as valuable as life. I’d like to thank Young Master Feng once more for saving my Guo family disciples when their lives were in danger. Thank you, Young Master Feng, for saving the Guo family’s Great Elder as well as preserving Elder Sun’s leg.”
