Brother-in-Law, Can We Go to Miaoshou Pharmacy with You?

Lu Yang didn't rush to check the reward.

He gently squeezed Lin Ying's small hand; his palm was warm and strong.

Lin Ying snapped out of her daze, paused for a moment, and finally turned to look at Lin Qiaohua, smiling broadly, "Great-Grandma, since Junior Brother Lu has said so, let's listen to him."

Upon hearing this, Lin Qiaohua looked at Lin Ying with mixed feelings, then at Lu Yang.

The incense in the main hall was still burning silently, the wisp of smoke drawing a thin arc in the air.

She took a deep breath, finally nodded slightly, and said with a complicated expression, "Alright then."

Upon hearing this, the Lin Lineage members silently swallowed.

Lin Qiaohua squatted down and collected the Law Treasures, pills, talismans, and spiritual materials on the ground one by one into her Storage Bag.

Her movements were steady, but her fingers would still tremble slightly involuntarily every time they touched those objects that shimmered with light.

After doing all this, Lin Qiaohua stood up, a warm smile returning to her face, and said to Lu Yang, "Lu Yang, let Yingying show you around the house and chat with you. I'll personally cook some Spirit Cuisine for you. Then you can stay here for a while and let Yingying keep you company."

Upon hearing this, Lu Yang smiled slightly, his tone tinged with apology. "Great-Grandma, the New Year is almost here, and I have to go home for a visit, so I won't stay at the Lin Household any longer. Besides, I have to go to Taibai Market later to take care of some things. I'll leave after dinner."

Lin Qiaohua's smile froze for a moment, a clear hint of disappointment flashing in her eyes. "Ah? So urgent? Well... alright then, your business is more important."

She naturally hoped that Lu Yang could stay at the Lin Household for a few more days.

This great-grandson-in-law is wonderful in every way, and she wants to show him the Lin Household the utmost warmth and hospitality.

But since Lu Yang had important business to attend to, she couldn't insist that he stay.

These are important matters for important figures, and none of them can be delayed.

Lin Ying looked at Lu Yang with some curiosity and asked, "Junior Brother Lu, what brings you to Taibai Market?"

She clearly remembered Lu Yang saying that the Lu Household was in the Yue Kingdom.

Junior Brother Lu has never been to the Yuan Kingdom before, so why would he have business to attend to in Taibai Market?

The Lin Household cultivators nearby also pricked up their ears, naturally filled with curiosity about the affairs of a noble young master like Lu Yang.

Lu Yang smiled slightly and said casually, "It's nothing major, just going over to take over some assets."

Industry?

The Lin Household members were all taken aback, their eyes widening slightly.

As cultivators from the Yue Kingdom, they had never heard of the Lu Household before.

Clearly, the Lu Household shouldn't be a prominent Aristocratic Clan in the Yuan Kingdom, so how come they have businesses in Taibai Market?

In the crowd, a young girl couldn't contain her curiosity and blurted out, "Brother-in-law, what kind of business is it?"

The girl looked somewhat like Lin Ying, with delicate features, but she was still less beautiful than Lin Ying.

Lu Yang glanced at the panel; this girl did not meet the standards of a beautiful woman.

Upon hearing the young woman's question, a middle-aged man nearby immediately changed his expression and shouted sternly, "Mingyue! How dare you ask such a question about Young Master Lu's important business?!"

He then turned to Lu Yang with a face full of apology, cupped his hands in a gesture of respect, and said, "Young Master Lu, I am truly sorry. My daughter is ignorant of etiquette and had no intention of offending you."

Lin Mingyue hadn't thought that much about it.

In her opinion, her brother-in-law was gentle and kind, and extremely handsome, which made her feel close to him subconsciously, so she asked him directly.

Only after being scolded by her father did she realize that she had been somewhat rash.

Lin Mingyue immediately lowered her head, her face slightly pale, and she twisted her clothes nervously with both hands.

Seeing this, Lu Yang smiled and waved his hand, saying gently, "It's alright, no need to be so cautious. It's not a secret... I'm the owner of Miaoshou Pharmacy, and I'm here to take over."

"Miaoshou Pharmacy?!" a young man couldn't help but exclaim in surprise.

The others stared wide-eyed, their eyes filled with disbelief and shock.

Lin Qiaohua gasped, her voice trembling slightly. "Is it that chain of medicine shops? Miaoshou Pharmacy?"

Lu Yang nodded and chuckled, "If there isn't another Miaoshou Pharmacy in Taibai Market, then this is it."

The Lin Household cultivators looked at each other, their expressions momentarily dazed.

From Lu Yang's two protectors and the hundred-foot-long flying boat, to the astonishing gift he casually presented, they already knew that Lu Yang's background was frighteningly profound.

But they didn't have a concrete idea of just how profound it was.

But the Miaoshou Pharmacy knew all too well.

As Lineage located near Taibai Market, who hasn't heard of the name "Miaoshou Pharmacy"?

That was a major alchemy company in the Yue Kingdom and even several surrounding countries, with branches all over major markets and employing countless Alchemists.

A small Aristocratic Clan like the Lin Household could only look up to a behemoth like Miaoshou Pharmacy from afar.

Who would have thought that such a giant in the pharmaceutical industry was actually Lu Yang's business?!

Lu Mian took a deep breath, her whole body trembling slightly with excitement.

Her eyes were shining as she looked at Lu Yang.

Just how incredibly lucky is my daughter?!

How could I possibly have met such a son-in-law?!

And this son-in-law is so considerate to his daughter!!

At that moment, Lin Qiaohua suddenly thought of something.

Her pupils contracted sharply, and her voice trembled with disbelief. "Lu Yang, you mean... you're the owner of Miaoshou Pharmacy? This pharmacy is your personal property, not part of the Lu Household?"

Upon hearing this, everyone shuddered and stared at Lu Yang with wide eyes once again.

The air in the main hall seemed to freeze even more.

Lu Yang chuckled lightly, his tone calm and casual. "It is indeed my personal property."

Upon hearing this, the Lin Household members opened their mouths but couldn't utter a sound; their expressions were all somewhat blank.

Personal property!

It wasn't from the Lineage... it belonged to him.

The Lin Household cultivators felt that Lu Yang was radiating an unbearable Spirit Stone, so bright that they could hardly open their eyes.

The air was silent for a moment before Lin Qiaohua was the first to come to her senses.

She took a deep breath, glanced around at the Lin Household cultivators, and waved her hand, saying, "Alright, alright, let Yingying keep Lu Yang company. You all go about your business! I'm going to the kitchen... Oh, Mian'er, you come and lend a hand too."

Lu Mian nodded quickly. "Okay!"

A flush of excitement spread across Lin Donglin's usually gentle and refined face as he chuckled and said, "I... I'll go get some spirit wine, and also prepare some spirit fruits and snacks to go with it!"

The other Lin Household cultivators also came to their senses and rushed to speak.

"I have some century-old Qingling wine that I stored away. Donglin, I'll get it for you!"

"Ancestor, I obtained two Ziyu lingzhi mushrooms during my last adventure. You can use them to cook."

"I still have some here..."

The Lin Household cultivators were all beaming with smiles, displaying boundless enthusiasm.

Although this is Lin Ying's dao companion, Lin Ying herself is Lin Household, so they can always benefit from it to some extent.

Such an important person naturally needs to be curryed over.

Looking at the smiling clansmen, Lu Mian saw that even the branches that were usually at odds with theirs were now full of enthusiasm and not to be outdone.

She couldn't help but straighten her back a bit.

"Lu Yang, you should rest first. Yingying, you must take good care of Lu Yang." Lin Qiaohua gave another instruction, then hurriedly led Lu Mian towards the kitchen.

The other elders of the Lin Household also dispersed, each going home to rummage through their belongings, pulling out all their best treasures to entertain their precious son-in-law.

Only Lin Ying and three younger Lin Household cultivators remained in the main hall.

These three people were Lin Mingyue, who had spoken earlier, and two boys who looked younger than her.

The three of them stared at Lu Yang with undisguised admiration in their eyes, as if they were looking at some extraordinary figure.

Lin Ying smiled and stepped aside to introduce Lu Yang, "Junior Brother Lu, these three are my younger brothers and sisters: Lin Mingyue, Lin Jin, and Lin Ling."

"Hello, brother-in-law!" The three voices rang out in unison, as if they had rehearsed, giving the impression of being under inspection.

Lu Yang couldn't help but chuckle at the three men's faces full of admiration.

He nodded and said gently, "Hello."

Lin Mingyue's personality was completely different from Lin Ying's gentleness; she was obviously much more lively and bolder.

Her eyes gleamed with anticipation as she stepped forward and said, "Brother-in-law, brother-in-law, can we go to Taibai Market with you? We'd like to see the Miaoshou Pharmacy too!"

Lin Jin and Lin Ling were also itching to speak up, but they didn't dare to.

Seeing Lin Mingyue speak her mind first, the two of them immediately brightened up and looked at Lu Yang expectantly.

Lin Jin eagerly chimed in, her voice tinged with longing. "Brother-in-law, can we go together? I've been to Taibai Market many times in my life, but I've never stepped inside the gates of Miaoshou Pharmacy before."

Lin Ling nodded repeatedly, speaking quickly, "Yes, yes, the pills inside are too expensive! There's a senior brother in our sect who was bragging to me last time about how he has a relative who refines pills at the Miaoshou Pharmacy. He's so proud of himself!"

Lin Ying frowned as the three of them surrounded her, chatting amongst themselves.

She rarely displayed any elder sisterly authority, and gently scolded, "Your brother-in-law is out on business; he doesn't have time to waste on your nonsense."

The three of them were already somewhat afraid of Lin Ying.

After all, Lin Ying is the leading figure of the younger generation of the Lin Household. She has the highest cultivation level, is a disciple of the Golden Rainbow Sword Sect, and is also a first-level peak Alchemist. Her words carry more weight in the family than some elders.

After being reprimanded like that, the three of them immediately shrank back and dared not utter a sound.

Lu Yang patted Lin Ying's arm and chuckled, "It's alright, Senior Sister Lin, it's nothing serious."

He looked at Lin Mingyue and the other two who were staring at him expectantly, and said in a gentle and casual tone, "Let's go together later."

Taking them on a trip wouldn't be a big deal, and it would also increase Lin Ying's prestige within the Lin Household.

As Lin Ying's dao companion, I was naturally happy to do such a small thing.
