Rebirth: My Healer Wife Owns Superpowers-Chapter 336 - : "Subordinates are men, no need to rest.
Chapter 336: Chapter 336: “Subordinates are men, no need to rest.
Qi Yue finished tidying up in good spirits and went downstairs to the laboratory to find her little assistant.
Learning that it really had produced an antidote formula, Qi Yue couldn’t help but praise it effusively.
“Little assistant, you’re really something! Not bad, once I’m done with these busy days, I can help you buy an Upgrade Card to make you even better.”
Yet, the assistant said, “I don’t want an Upgrade Card.”
“Then what do you want?”
“Doesn’t the master think it’s a waste for me to stay here all the time? You should upgrade my exterior and materials to make me look more human. That way, if there’s something that requires me to make an appearance, I can go out and help.”
...
“Uh…” Qi Yue looked over the assistant carefully and felt that it made a lot of sense.
The assistant’s height and shape were quite humanlike, but it was far too mechanical, looking nothing more than a skeletal frame.
If it wore clothes, it would simply look like a ghost.
If its appearance were upgraded and it were given an exterior like Iron Man’s, and then clothed, it indeed could be taken out.
Now, with no solution for the poisoners, an epidemic could break out at any moment at Longnan County Government. If the assistant could be taken out, then it would be a huge help.
But…
That’s where the problem lies!
Qi Yue spread her hands in resignation.
“I get your point, but you’ve overlooked something. Aside from surgery, these hands of mine are useless for anything else, so that’s not going to work.”
The assistant rolled its metallic eyeballs upward.
“Is that really a thing?”
“Of course, it is,” Qi Yue said, patting her hands, “so just forget about it. I’ll buy you an Upgrade Card right away to make you more agile.”
Even though it wasn’t possible to fulfill this idea, it left Qi Yue with a thought.
—With Zhao Xiyan’s cleverness, he should be able to do it, right?
But then again, considering someone without a higher education, even if they’re incredibly deft, it’s likely futile. Better not trouble him with it.
After purchasing the Upgrade Card in the study, Qi Yue also checked the sales of her antique shop.
No guesswork needed, the balance had increased again.
Customer service from the platform had sent hundreds of greetings, urging her to list new items.
Qi Yue frowned as she glanced at the empty shelves of her little shop and calmly listed a blind box.
Item Name: Unknown.
Shipping Method: Random delivery, more than one if in a good mood, one if not.
Item Price: One million spacetime coins
Recently, she had no time to list new items, too troublesome; a blind box would suffice for now. She figured no one would buy it anyway.
After all, it’s a million spacetime coins!
After listing the blind box, she chuckled and shut down the computer.
No sooner had she descended the stairs than she heard someone calling from outside.
“Miss, I am Hei Lie. Are you awake? Madam Chu has come to see you.”
A frown creased Qi Yue’s brow.
What is she doing here?
Could it be that Chu Yuntian had grown suspicious and sent someone to probe?
With that thought, she stepped out of the space and opened the dilapidated door.
Hei Lie kept his head down the whole time. Seeing her come out without peeking inside, Qi Yue was very satisfied and her voice softened involuntarily.
“Haven’t you all rested?”
“We are men, we don’t need rest.”
What kind of answer was that? Qi Yue couldn’t help but laugh.
She casually took out a bottle of Carefree Pills and threw it to Hei Lie.
“Here, take this. Eat two pills each day; it’s beneficial.”

Hei Lie held the object in his arms, his eyes widening when he saw the bottle.
He had seen this before.
The Marquis had rewarded it to those who had performed well before; everyone who took it called it a miraculous medicine, claiming that even their martial arts improved!
Instantly, his knees went weak and he was about to kneel in gratitude when he saw Qi Yue had already turned and walked away.
“Where is the person? Take me there.”
Hei Lie quickly stuffed the items into his bosom, and hurriedly followed.
“It’s chaotic here, my men have welcomed him to the tea house opposite.”
“Well done.”
“Yes, Master… oh, serving the Master is my duty… oh, thank you, Master…”
“No need for thanks, I’m always quite generous to my own people, there will be more in the future.”
“Yes, thank you, Master.”
The two walked one after the other, walking past the scattered rocks, charred wood, and other debris, and left the main gate of Rishengchang.
Qu Wei, Huang Zai’an, and others were sighing amidst a pile of corpses; when they saw Qi Yue come out, their eyes lit up like lamps.
“Apprentice.”
“Yueyue.”
Qi Yue walked over, glanced, and explained, “I’m going to see Madam Chu; I’ll talk more when I return.”
No one but herself knew about Chu Yuntian’s situation.
And before she could figure out a way to deal with it, she didn’t want others to know either.
So, on the surface, she was still Chu Yuntian’s sworn daughter, closely related to the Chu Family, just like family!
In the tea house across the street, Madam Chu and Auntie Chu were chatting in a desultory manner.
The topic was nothing other than the conflict from the previous night; when Qi Yue entered, she heard them praising her.
“Our Yueyue is truly amazing; we were worrying we might not see her this time, but she quietly rescued us all.”
“Indeed, not even our own children are as thoughtful as her.”
“Hey, that’s not right to say, Yueyue is our own child, isn’t she?”
“Right, right, right, Sister is absolutely correct. It was I who misspoke.”
Both of them laughed.
Qi Yue forced a smile, pushed the door, and entered the private room.
“Madam, Auntie, how come you’ve arrived?”
Madam Chu and Auntie Chu became enthusiastic upon seeing her.
“You child, if your Auntie and I didn’t come, how would we know you look so pale? You must be exhausted, right?”
She looked pale?
Qi Yue couldn’t help but touch her cheek; when she left, she looked fine in the mirror!
Before she had a chance to reply, Madam Chu eagerly opened a food box.
Instantly, the aroma of chicken soup pervaded the private room.
“Yueyue, I stewed this chicken soup for you myself; come and have some, your complexion will surely improve.”
Seeing the enthusiasm of the two women, Qi Yue temporarily set aside the matters weighing on her mind.
No matter what, Madam Chu and Auntie Chu’s sincerity towards her was real.
After drinking the chicken soup and chatting for a while, Madam Chu took out a box smilingly.
“Yueyue, your godfather knows you’re facing many difficulties, and we can’t offer much help; please take this, it’s the least we can express our sentiment with.”
When Qi Yue opened it, she saw 100,000 taels of silver, and her heart stirred.
Setting aside the incident from ten years ago, Chu Yuntian could truly be considered a good godfather.
“Madam Chu, I cannot accept this.”
Then, she recapped the outcome of the arrangement she had made.
Madam Chu was a lady of the inner court and originally didn’t understand the true strength of Rishengchang Draft Bank.
Upon hearing Qi Yue say that enough silver would be transported here in six days, she also felt relieved.
Qi Yue declined again, and only then did Madam Chu stop insisting.
After seeing the two women off, Qi Yue returned to Rishengchang.
Huang Zai’an, Qu Wei, and others had been waiting for a long time; seeing her return, they all gathered around.
“Yueyue, we need to deal with these bodies quickly. I just heard that people on the street are already looking to bury the dead.”
“Apprentice, if you have any methods, use them now; otherwise, if someone else buries them and you bring them back to life later, what kind of situation would that be?”
Hei Lie followed behind, not speaking, but his face was full of anticipation.
