Su Chen's words were astonishing, and both husband and wife were stunned.
Under the crowd, she suddenly ran over and said that she wanted to be a concubine. Is this girl so brave?
Ren An stabilized his mood and asked, "Miss Su, are you...?"
"Ren Pill Master, I don't have money to buy Frost Pills. I really have no money, but I don't want my father to die. Please help me. In return, I will be your concubine and work for you..."
Su Chen talked a lot, and spoke very quickly, her voice was full of anxiety and uneasiness, and it was obvious that her mood was very unstable.
Ren An was silent for a while, and finally decided to speak truthfully:
"Miss Su, l will say something cruel but true, your father is currently in the late stage of fire poisoning, even if a foundation building monk comes, there is nothing you can do, so you should spend the rest of his days with him."
"I know, I know, I just want my dad to live a little longer, even if it's just one day."
Su Chen burst into tears as she spoke, and the tears wouldn't stop flowing down.
Seeing that she knew about her father's situation, Ren An no longer hesitated, and decided to accept her today.
Out of respect for his wife, he handed over the decision-making power to his wife, and asked her:
"Ying'er, what do you think?"
"Husband, I used to be the eldest daughter in my family, and I always wanted to have a sister. I hope my husband can agree with Miss Su's request."
Song Huaying said against her will.
Although she had already seen through the problem that her husband would take a concubine sooner or later, and knew that the sooner her husband took a concubine, the better it would be for her, but when it was time to usher in this moment, she still felt a little uncomfortable.
After getting his wife's statement, Ren An went back to the house and took out two bottles of Frost pills, handed them to Su Chen who was still sobbing softly, and said to her:
"You take these two bottles of Frost pills back for your father to use, and if they are not enough, you can take more of them from me."
"Thank you, thank you Alchemist Ren!"
Su Ren thanked him from the bottom of her heart, and wanted to kneel down and kowtow, but was stopped by Ren An.
After that, Ren An, the future husband, took his little wife to Su Chen's home to visit her seriously ill father.
Her father is very sick, and has lost consciousness, but still has weak breathing, no different from the vegetative state in his previous life.
But fortunately, her father is a monk at the third level of refining qi, and can maintain his bodily functions by absorbing the aura in the spirit stones. He doesn't need to eat, drink, and excrete, and it's much easier to take care of him.
After visiting his future father-in-law, Ren An asked Su Chen about his doubts.
Ask her why she suddenly became so rich a few days ago, but now suddenly has no money?
Later, he learned that Su Chen's spiritual strength was naturally much higher than that of ordinary monks.
When her cultivation base is still at the first level of Qi Refining, the strength of spiritual consciousness can be comparable to that of a monk in the middle stage of Qi Refining.
Based on this point, she joined a hunting team, positioned to play an auxiliary role in it, responsible for predicting dangers for her teammates with her strong spiritual perception, and hunting blood demons together, thus earning a lot of spirit stones.
But recently, the blood demons have been cleaned up by the Xuan sect, and there is no more hunting.
So she lost her job and lost her income at once.
As for switching to hunting other monsters, that is a job that only monks in the late stage of Qi refining are qualified to consider.
The blood demon is actually a bat demon. It is one of the weakest monsters in the world of cultivating immortals. Almost all of the monks can hunt them by forming a team.
After briefly understanding Su Chen's personal family situation, Ren An just left a sentence "I'll come for you again tonight", and soon left with his little wife.
After all, she was just a concubine and they hadn't gotten married yet, and the two of them had no relationship before.
After leaving Su Chen's house, Ren An and his wife found a nearby river with fewer people and guaranteed safety.
So he took her wife to row a boat and recited poems for her.
During this period, I also gained a lot of experience in alchemy, and I was greatly satisfied physically and mentally.
Seeing that the sky was getting dark, Ren An took his little wife to market to buy the things he will use when he will pay Su Chen homage tonight.
After returning home and putting away all the things, the husband and wife began to work together.
Ren An is responsible for picking up Su Chen.
Song Huaying is in charge of cooking at home.
With a heart full of joy, Ren An came to Su Chen's home.
As soon as I entered, I saw Su Chen squatting in the corner with her hands around her knees and sobbing softly, she looked very depressed.
Her father died.
Died not long after Ren An and his little wife left at noon today.
All vitality is lost.
Ren An stepped forward to comfort her, and then buried the man with Su Chen.
He was buried in the backyard of Su Chen's house.
When it's over, plant a willow sapling on it as a kind of spiritual sustenance.
"Miss Su, I'd better pick you up in a few days."
Ren An originally planned to marry Su Chen tonight, but unfortunately, Su Chen's father passed away on this day, so this can only be delayed to another day.
Su Chen sobbed and said "um", and didn't speak again.
Hearing her "hmm", Ren An couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
You know, the reason why Su Chen is willing to be Ren An's concubine is entirely because she wants to see an alchemist for her seriously ill father.
Now, her father passed away, and Ren An was worried that she would regret it.
But now it seems that this worry is obviously a bit redundant.
Su Chen is more principled than he imagined, and she can carry out the four words of "doing what she says" to the end.
Over the next few days.
Ren An reduced the time for alchemy, and often took time to visit Su Chen, thinking of enhancing their relationship.
As his wife, Song Huaying would occasionally go there with him to get in touch with her future sister in advance.
In a blink of an eye, nearly half a month has passed since the day Su Chen's father passed away.
Ren An got up early, and was going to bring a breakfast made by himself to Su Chen who lived across the door.
"Crack—"
He pushed open the gate of the yard and walked slowly to Su Chen's house.
But just as his front foot crossed the threshold of his house, his back foot stopped suddenly, and his eyes fell on the courtyard wall next to the door.
There, he saw Su Chen squatting motionless on the ground with her back against the courtyard wall, with several bulging bags beside her.
"Miss Su, why are you here?"
"Ren Pill Master, I'm here to marry you."
"..."
Following these two lines of dialogue, the air became slightly silent.
This concubine seems a bit straightforward.
Thinking, Ren An stepped forward to pick up a few bags beside Su Chen, smiled and said to her:
"Miss Su, it's hot outside, come in and sit inside."
"Um."
Su Chen responded with an soft humm, got up silently and followed Ren An into the room.
