Ye Qingfeng was stunned for a moment, but a spark instantly lit up his eyes as he looked at Wang An and said
"Big Brother, how can I not be anxious? It's been two years—I've been married to Xiao Yun for nearly two years. If it weren't for me, how could Xiao Yun have suffered such great injustice?"
Although Ye Qingfeng's words sounded sincere and he truly felt the emotion, making it seem as though he were considering his wife's well-being, to be honest, Wang An actually looked down on him a bit more because of this.
Because he clearly had the problem himself, yet he refused to admit it, allowing his wife to shoulder the reputation of being infertile. And now, he was acting as if he were some kind of great man.
To put it bluntly, was this the kind of thing a real man should do? Wasn't this a bit disgusting?
If you had even a shred of backbone, or even a bit of grit, your own mother wouldn't have said that "marrying a wife is worse than raising a breeding sow."
What was most infuriating were the comments like "even an old sow can have piglets" and "a hen that can't lay eggs," which were truly aggravating to hear.
Although Wang An thought this in his heart, he didn't show it on his face. Instead, he said with a smile
"That Three-Whip Wine you drink every day is a simplified version. True Three-Whip Wine uses tiger penis, deer penis, and dog penis as the primary ingredients, and it must also include wild ginseng that is over 80 years old."
In reality, a normal Three-Whip Wine recipe didn't include wild ginseng, but the version Li Yuan had people research did.
Of course, even in the recipe Li Yuan's people developed, there was no specific requirement for the age of the wild ginseng.
However, Wang An felt that the older the wild ginseng, the better the effect on Ye Qingfeng's body would be; after all, the medicinal potency of wild ginseng increases with age.
After Wang An finished speaking, Ye Qingfeng and Bai Xiaoyun looked at each other, their eyes gleaming.
Then Ye Qingfeng asked
"Big Brother, is this Three-Whip Wine recipe you mentioned really effective?"
Wang An rolled his eyes at Ye Qingfeng and said very honestly
"I can only say there's a high probability. Who dares to give a 100% guarantee? Besides, even a miracle cure has to target the specific ailment."
Seeing Ye Qingfeng's anxious uncertainty, Wang An continued
"Anyway, this recipe has already cured many people. As for whether it will work for you specifically, that depends on your fate."
Hearing this, Ye Qingfeng stopped hesitating. He nodded and said with a determined gaze
"Yeah, I'm already in this pathetic state; how much worse could it get?"
Having shared the recipe, Wang An felt there was nothing more for him to do, so he said to Ye Qingfeng
"Deer penis and dog penis are easy to come by, and ginseng shouldn't be hard for your family, but this tiger penis seems like it'll be a bit of a struggle."
Ye Qingfeng nodded in agreement
"Yeah, tiger penis has been a rarity since ancient times. Nowadays, it's even scarcer."
At this point, Ye Qingfeng's face suddenly filled with worry. Clearly, given Ye Qingfeng's capabilities, it would be very difficult to track down a tiger penis.
Wang An actually had one, but everyone has a selfish streak. To Wang An, his relationship with Ye Qingfeng hadn't reached the level where he could just casually give away a tiger penis.
One must understand that the rarity of a tiger penis was countless times greater than that of a Grade Six Ye Ginseng.
At the very least, while Grade Six Ye Ginseng was quite rare, ginseng could still be dug up in this era. Furthermore, those in the ginseng guilds would always keep one or two roots as life-saving medicine.
Tiger penis was different. Hunting tigers had never been easy, and now it was forbidden to hunt them indiscriminately.
Even if a tiger was hunted successfully after official approval, regardless of the cost, the chance of obtaining a tiger penis was only fifty percent.
The reason it was only fifty percent was that tigers have genders, and female tigers do not have a penis.
That said, ordinary civilians—the hunters—would get nothing at all.
Forget the precious tiger penis; even trying to get a piece of ordinary tiger bone was a damn struggle. At most, you'd get a few hundred yuan in bonus money and a commemorative banner, and that would be the absolute limit.
Don't doubt it; this was the reality.
Looking at Ye Qingfeng's distressed face, Wang An thought for a moment and said
"If you ask me, you should just tell the truth to your father and mother. But tell them in secret. That way, your mother will stop making things difficult for your wife, and you can use your father's connections to hunt for a tiger penis. That's better than you struggling here on your own."
Hearing this, Ye Qingfeng suddenly felt immense regret and slapped himself across the face. With a loud "smack," a very prominent red handprint appeared on his cheek.
It was clear that this slap was not light!
Then, Ye Qingfeng looked at Bai Xiaoyun with a face full of apology and said
"Xiao Yun, I've failed you! I should have told my parents about this long ago. I let you suffer in silence for two years... I... I'm not a human being!"
After saying this, Ye Qingfeng slapped himself hard again.
After a series of "slap slap" sounds, Bai Xiaoyun finally reacted and stepped forward to hug Ye Qingfeng tightly.
She said
"I don't blame you, I really don't blame you, Qingfeng!"
As they spoke, the couple began to cry again, wailing with their heads pressed together.
Seeing this scene, Wang An was speechless.
This couple was truly something. First, Ye Qingfeng made Bai Xiaoyun cry, then Bai Xiaoyun made Ye Qingfeng cry. Now, they were just triggering each other to cry!
Good grief!
However, this time, Ye Qingfeng's actions won Wang An's approval.
As a man who stands up to pee, one should at least be "unashamed before heaven and earth," right? Letting a woman suffer for his sake was just too messed up.
After watching for a while, Wang An felt he was becoming a third wheel, so he said to the couple
"Alright, I've told you the method. If it still doesn't work, I'll help you think of another way. I'm leaving now; you two carry on, hehehehe."
Having said that, Wang An turned to walk outside.
The sobbing couple tried to get up to see him off, but Wang An quickly waved them off
"Stay inside and don't come out. If people see you, they'll wonder what happened."
Ye Qingfeng shouted loudly
"Next time you come to the county town, come to my house for drinks, Big Brother!"
Wang An waved again and quickly disappeared from Ye Qingfeng's courtyard.
