Chapter 89 The kindness of Madams Cai and Liu could not be appreciated
Chapter 89 The kindness of Madams Cai and Liu could not be appreciated
Wanxing knelt down directly in front of Qianyan, sobbing uncontrollably.
Mu Huaisheng was stunned:
Alas! For women in ancient times, parting from loved ones was almost like a separation of life and death.
"Get up! What are you doing!"
His words carried a hint of coldness.
Mu Huaisheng quickly helped Wanxing up and smoothed things over, saying:
"Your older sister has been relying on you since you were little, so it's only natural that she worries about you."
You should talk to your older sister nicely and ask her whether she wants to go or not; it won't make a difference if she has a child like you.
There will be plenty of opportunities to go out and gain experience in the future.
You two talk it out yourselves, I'm going out now~
He then pulled the two people to sit down and went out to close the door for them.
Let Qingyue keep watch from afar.
Huaisheng went elsewhere to pack his things.
No one knows what the siblings said, but the next day Wanxing's eyes were swollen like peaches.
Qianyan went to the academy to pack her things.
Mu Huaisheng went to Lan Yaoshen's house at noon to get medicine from his sister-in-law.
The Blue Medicine God thoughtfully packed the medicine into a porcelain bottle and then put it in a small cloth bag.
Put them in a big bag to save the trouble of dividing them into compartments in a medicine box.
In the afternoon, the two wives of Qi Luan from the Duke's Mansion sent out invitations, asking them to come over.
Mu Huaisheng thought that since he had received a lot of reward money before, he might as well go and say goodbye to Shoupai.
When they arrived, Mu Huaisheng was utterly shocked.
When the two beauties saw Mu Huaisheng arrive, they dismissed their maids and stood up together.
With a smile, she pulled Mu Huaisheng to sit down next to her.
The two beauties were as lovely as flowers, and Mu Huaisheng was captivated by their smiles.
Having greeted them somewhat haphazardly, he stammered, "..."
"May I ask, is either of you ladies feeling unwell?"
"Since you started the treatment, I'm still following your instructions."
Now, I'm in very good health~
Madam Liu smiled gently and said in a soft voice.
"And those two ladies are...?"
"Sister, let me tell you~"
Madam Cai smiled gently.
"Miss Huai Sheng~"
Mu Huaisheng was puzzled:
Normally, everyone calls me Doctor Mu! What's going on?
"Madam, you can just call me Doctor Mu."
"Miss Huaisheng is almost of marriageable age, isn't she?"
A nerve in Mu Huaisheng's mind skipped a beat:
Hmm? If I'm not mistaken, they're going to introduce me to someone?
The recommendations from these two beauties must be pretty good.
Could it be that I'm about to have a sweet romance?
Pretending to be a little shy:
"Yes, soon, after the New Year."
"That...
"Is Miss Huai Sheng married?"
Mu Huaisheng was overjoyed:
No!
Ah, after treating so many high-ranking officials and dignitaries, I've finally received a proper reward.
The voice became even lower:
Never~
"Have you thought about what kind of man you want to find?"
Mu Huaisheng was overjoyed:
You asked this question, so if I told you, you have to go find it for me!
"Huh? This..."
"Speak freely, there's no one else in this room."
After feigning shyness for a long time, she finally spoke:
"Be of good character, come from a well-off family..."
The household should not have too many people, and also...
It would be best if she were good-looking~
After saying that, she quickly pretended to be shy and lowered her head.
The two ladies exchanged a smile, and Madam Cai said:
"That would be perfect!"
Mu Huaisheng was overjoyed:
Zun Du is fake! They've already chosen someone?
Could it be that spring is really coming?
"May I ask which household you two ladies are referring to? Do I know them?"
Madam Liu took her hand and smiled:
"You know it! You know it all too well!"
Mu Huaisheng was stunned:
I'm familiar with it?
No~
Could it be Master Qi Wu?
I'm not familiar with it either~
Madam Cai smiled, took her other hand, and said with a smile:
I don't know~
What do you think of Third Master?
"Who? Master Ji?"
Mu Huaisheng's heart skipped a beat, thinking he had misheard.
The two ladies exchanged a smile:
"Third Master~"
"Whose Third Master is this?"
"The only Third Master I know is from the Duke's mansion."
"It's the Third Master of the Duke's Mansion~"
Madam Cai smiled.
"Is there only one Third Master in the Duke's Mansion?"
Mu Huaisheng could not believe it.
"That's for sure, it's our Third Master."
"This girl is so happy she's gone crazy!"
Madam Liu also smiled.
A thunderbolt struck Mu Huaisheng's mind:
I was really stupid!
I can understand each word individually, but I can't understand them when put together!
Also, I was completely dumbfounded, not happy at all!
"No, ladies, is it your husband—Third Master Qi?"
"Yes!"
The two ladies responded.
Mu Huaisheng's CPU began to run at high speed:
Could it be that I unknowingly committed some kind of "green tea" incident?
No!
After learning that Qi Luan was engaged, she was sad for a while, but then she gave up on the idea.
Moreover, I've only seen him a few times.
Every time we meet? Every time we meet, I'm always very proper!
Ladies, what does this mean?
Could it be that the two ladies misunderstood something because they returned too late from the palace with the Prince and Qi Luan last time?
He quickly sat up straight and explained:
"Ladies, many years ago, I became acquainted with your household because of young master Nian'an."
I have been taught and guided by Master Qi.
Master Qi was a dragon among men, just like many women in Ye City when I was a child.
She also wants to grow up and marry an outstanding man like Master Qi.
However, he absolutely never coveted the Third Master!
The Third Master and his two wives are a perfect match, a match made in heaven.
If you two ladies do not believe me, you can ask everyone in the manor. I have never done anything to covet the Third Master.
He also never uttered a single word that expressed any desire for Third Master!
He immediately stood up and bowed.
"I don't know what I did unintentionally that caused the two ladies to misunderstand!"
Please forgive me, ladies.
I have done nothing wrong; you two ladies may investigate further!
Mu Huaisheng felt somewhat ashamed:
I did fantasize about it before, but that was all I did.
But he never succeeded!
"Miss Huaisheng, what are you saying?"
Madam Cai, holding Huai Sheng's hand, smiled and said:
"We know what kind of people you and Third Master are."
Well, I heard you're also going on a long trip this time.
Our family's Third Master has also gone on a long trip this time.
It doesn't matter which family you go with; I'd like to trouble you to take care of Third Master along the way.
But it's not proper for a young woman like you to take care of a man.
Then I thought, you're not young anymore, and you've already become a female doctor...
Life is always tougher for women.
We respect you for earning your living through your own abilities at such a young age, but we're concerned about your job...
As for marriage, this might be an obstacle.
We know that Third Master doesn't care about these things.
We know your character, and we thought, if it were you...
"My sister and I won't mind."
Mu Huaisheng: My goodness!
I understood every single sentence, yet I didn't want to understand any of them!
"If it were you, we would definitely treat you well in the future."
You've known us for so many years, you know I wasn't lying!
Fearing she wouldn't believe it, Mrs. Liu added something else.
Mu Huaisheng understood:
I understand now, these two beauties really meant well!
They were worried that I wouldn't be able to get married because of my profession, so they wanted me to join their family.
This journey may be dangerous, so I'm going too.
Why don't we go out with their caravan and leave the men to my care?
Or become the man who takes care of me.
It was a win-win situation, and it also found me a good home.
I. . .
"Thank you both for your kindness~"
I'm sorry I don't have that privilege.
Furthermore, becoming a female doctor allowed me to make a living.
I have also seen many different people and things in this world.
There are kind women like the two ladies and the Crown Prince's wife who think of others.
There are also women in large mansions who torment others and are tormented by others.
There are countless women in the world who struggle even to survive.
I want to use all my knowledge to do my part for the people I have the chance to meet!
I will be a female doctor for the rest of my life, which may prevent me from getting married.
I have no regrets, so I appreciate your kindness, ladies.
On this journey, I will be traveling with the Marquis's merchant caravan.
I'm really not good at taking care of others in daily life.
Having lived in the mansion for so many years, I have never personally served medicine to any of the masters.
So, ladies!
Once I leave this door, I will pretend that the two ladies never said these words.
I have come today only to bid farewell to the Crown Princess and the two ladies!
