But before he could even take two sips of the wine, someone from Yao Yunfeng came over and said that a fugitive had escaped and the government was short of staff, so he asked Song Wenyuan to lend him a few men. Song Wenyuan's men could not be dispatched by others, and since Lin Muyanhuo was not there at the moment, he had no choice but to go there himself.

Jin Yunian was worried about the two little thieves in the woodshed, so he took Song Wenyuan's carriage and left with him, leaving only Xu Chengjin, who he was not familiar with, behind.

Xu Chengjin didn't show any intention of leaving.

Master Xu changed his slightly dull look and stared at Yuan Ge for a long while. He fanned himself and asked calmly, "Miss Wen also knows medicine? Who is her teacher? Why don't you tell me? Maybe I know someone by chance."

Yuan Ge frowned, stroked the wine cup and chuckled, "I have only dabbled in it, not even close to understanding it. I guess it's because I have little talent and have not worked hard to improve myself. I really don't want to bring up my teacher and tarnish his reputation."

"Dead?" Xu Chengjin was not surprised at all. That was right. If you blame a dead person for everything, you will not be able to verify it. But he was determined to find out something today, so he naturally made up his mind to get to the bottom of it. "It doesn't matter. We are just chatting about daily life. It's not that serious. Besides, if this person is dead, it will be lonely if no one mentions him. We living people occasionally think about him, just like taking out old clothes from the bottom of the box to dry them in the sun. It can be regarded as another kind of commemoration and memorial."

Yuan Ge raised her eyelids. These words seemed familiar, as if she had said them casually when she was basking in the sun with a glass of wine in hand and squinting her eyes. At that time, she had killed the fat rabbit that Xu Chengjin had raised for half a month to satisfy his internal organs. Xu Chengjin didn't know and thought that the rabbit had run away to complain to her. She had just had enough food and wine, so she was in a good mood and comforted him casually.

Unexpectedly, things change.

This is the Nan Yin in Yuan Ge’s memory. On the surface, he looks like a playboy who likes to stand on the periphery of the crowd and watch the show with cold eyes. In fact, he has more worries and thoughts than anyone else, and his temper is more difficult than anyone else.

She leaned over to pour the wine, and in the blink of an eye she had already thought of a countermeasure. She pushed the wine glass towards Xu Chengjin, then slowly sat down, looked up, and said in a gentle voice, "Although this wine is good, Mr. Xu has a poor alcohol tolerance, so you must not drink too much... Otherwise, he will mistake me for someone else and act like a spoiled child, wouldn't that make you laugh?"

Xu Chengjin was stunned, and his heart was in a panic. He subconsciously opened his mouth to refute, but he saw the other side smile lightly and said, "It was also a coincidence. At that time, I knew that the teacher who taught me was Mr. Xu's old friend, Zhi Xuanshan, Yuan Ge."

"Impossible! How come I didn't know when Yuan Ge accepted students?" Xu Chengjin denied it without even thinking, "Not to mention accepting students, she has never even left Zhixuan Mountain! Don't lie to me and say that you went to Zhixuan Mountain to worship Yuan Ge. Such things will be known once you check." He always seemed particularly excited when it came to Yuan Ge.

Xu Chengjin was a sharp-minded person and not easy to deal with. Yuan Ge wanted his excitement at the moment. She spoke with a slight smile and some nonchalantness, as if she was the eldest disciple who held a more important position in that person's heart. "Mr. Xu, you are a little too confident. You haven't been with her every day. How do you know that she has never come down the mountain to Shengjing City? I met her only two or three years ago. That summer, I fainted in the suburbs due to heat stroke. She happened to save me. She said that she was in the mood to go down the mountain while collecting herbs and met me. It was fate, so she taught me for a few days. Later, she came a few more times, occasionally bringing me two medical books and occasionally staying for a few days. Although she formally accepted me as a disciple, the grace of teaching and imparting knowledge is always real."

"If you don't believe me, go ask my husband. I told him this early in the morning." Yuan Ge said, his face already a little cold. "To be honest, you and I are not familiar with each other. I don't need to explain to you who I associate with and where I learned medical skills... It seems that Mr. Xu really can't hold his liquor. It's better to go back early. Shiyin, send him away!"

She had a cold face, tilted her head, and didn't even bother to look at anyone, and was righteously angry.

Xu Chengjin was too familiar with her. Even if "Wen Qian" did have a complete past, and even if ordinary people could never think of or believe in something like reincarnation, as they continued to get along, the part of her that was Yuan Ge would become more and more obvious. For example, her temperament, her knowledge and medical skills, and her inability to lift an embroidery needle.

After getting over her initial fear of the resurrection of the dead, Yuan Ge understood that it was impossible for one person to completely replace another person. She could not live as Wen Qian, and could not return to Yuan Ge.

She is who she is, no matter if she is called Yuan Ge, Wen Qian, or even A, B, C, or D, she is just that her.

Maybe one day, she will finally hang out her dusty past on a sunny afternoon like drying old clothes, but it is obviously not the time yet.

……

The autumn wind in Shengjing City is milder than that in Zhixuan Mountain, but the autumn in Shengjing City is far less lively than that in Zhixuan Mountain.

The red maple and ginkgo trees all over the mountain are the most romantic scenery, and there are layers of dead leaves on the ground, which make a rustling sound when you step on them. After returning from Zhixuan Mountain, Xu Chengjin bought a house for himself. The place is not big, and he planted a few red maple trees, but it still looks desolate and lonely. There are only a few trees, and it doesn't make a scene.

Xu Chengjin did not go home after coming out of Luofengxuan. He just stood in the back garden of the Song family and looked at the rockery... He drank here that night.

He had a very good alcohol tolerance and he drank every day during those few days. He was a little drunk, but not unconscious. Instead, he took advantage of the drunkenness to have some fun and do things that he really wanted to do but couldn't do when he was sober, for example, thinking about old friends, sighing about the past, or crying for that person.

Wen Qian's intrusion was an accident, but it was also a fuse.

That similar face was unmistakable when he was sober, but when he was drunk, the shocking effect was so great that he could not distinguish reality from dreams for a moment. He thought it was a dream, he thought that whatever he thought about during the day he would dream about at night, he thought Yuan Ge came to see him for the last time before leaving... The emotions that had been suppressed for many days suddenly burst out.

He thought he was really drunk.

After waking up, he was in a trance for a long time. The conversation in the "dream" was vague and ambiguous. She looked so much like Yuan Ge. Could she be -! After all, she was so different from Wen Qian, and she was so similar to Yuan Ge... Once this thought started, it grew like bamboo shoots after rain. Even he felt that he must have been drunk and had such thoughts...
