Chapter 518: Chapter 518: Embarrassment (22nd Update)
Xie Zhinuan invited the two of them to sit down and put away the medical book.
“Miss Xie, we…” Zhao Xiuya started to speak but hesitated.
Having delayed for so many days for the child, and now that Xie Zhinuan had encountered trouble, it would be quite unkind of them to leave.
But if they didn’t leave, there were also many matters to attend to at Number One Manor.
“Miss Xie, my wife and I have decided to leave Little Mao here with you, troubling you to take care of him for a while. We will come to pick him up ourselves later!” Qin Yu said earnestly.
“Come in person?” Xie Zhinuan asked.
“Yes, in person!”
Xie Zhinuan nodded, “Alright, then you should go talk to Qin Mao. The child is still young and a bit sensitive, but he is especially sensible. If you talk to him, he will understand!”
“Thank you so much, Miss Xie!”
“Don’t worry about it; just remember to bring some more top-quality medicinal herbs for Qin Mao’s food expenses when you come!”
Her jest made both Zhao Xiuya and Qin Yu feel much better.
Everyone has their own things to do, their own paths to walk.
As for her, it didn’t matter if she had to care for one child or two. Now with Mu Rourou, who never seemed to grow up, there was no need for concern. She could spend half a day playing with two children, piling up blocks or making small contraptions.
She planned to have Mu Rourou read to the children when there was nothing else to do once they moved to a new place; she was determined to find something for Mu Rourou to do.
With Mu Rourou around, the children would become happier, and she thought that was very good.
“When do you plan to leave?” Xie Zhinuan asked.
“We will leave tomorrow morning!” Qin Yu said.
“Then are you planning to ride horses or take a boat?”
“We’ve prepared horses. We’ll take a boat first, then ride horses!”
Xie Zhinuan nodded, “Alright, I wish you a safe journey!”
Xie Zhinuan didn’t say much more.
After all, their friendship wasn’t especially deep.
Although they had stayed together for a few days, they didn’t understand each other very well.
She didn’t intend to form a particularly deep friendship.
“Does Miss Xie plan to buy a shop in Gaocheng County?” Qin Yu asked.
“Yes, I’ve already bought one. Originally, I planned to stay on the boat for a few days, but it seems I can’t stay there now. After you leave tomorrow, I will move to my new home!”
Qin Yu nodded.
Zhao Xiuya had already gone upstairs to see Qin Mao.
After thinking a bit, Qin Yu said a few words to Xie Zhinuan and then went to see Dugu Zhen.
Dugu Zhen was leaning in a chair, drinking, and when he saw Qin Yu come in, he waved him over to sit by his side.
“Senior!”
“Hmm!”
Qin Yu bit his lip, “I will be leaving tomorrow!”
“…”
Dugu Zhen nodded, “Ah, have you decided?”
“I’ve decided. I will leave early tomorrow morning!” Qin Yu said softly, looking at Dugu Zhen, “Thank you for saving my life, senior. I, I…”
Dugu Zhen smiled helplessly, took a sip of his drink, and then continued, “Actually, I have a deep connection with Number One Manor. Your great-aunt was my deceased wife!”
“…”Upon hearing this, Qin Yu stood up in shock, staring at Dugu Zhen in bewilderment, “You are Dugu Zhen?”
“What else? Why else do you think I would save you upon knowing that you are the young master of Number One Manor?” Dugu Zhen said with a resigned smile.
It was also why he had begged Xie Zhinuan to take out the Secret Medicine to treat Qin Mao.
Because of this connection.
