Mo’er helped on the side, holding the lamp as Liu Shimei, wearing gloves, began to examine Madam Miao. With a calm and professional voice, she inquired about details while simultaneously explaining the patient’s symptoms to three apprentices.
After some time, Liu Shimei prescribed a different remedy than Duke An’s, as Madam Miao’s gynecological inflammation was severe!
After examining the patient, Madam Miao left looking as if she had been wronged.
“Never seen such a strange person, thickest face in the world!” Mo’er couldn’t help but mutter.
Now that the person had left, Liu Shimei didn’t reprimand her, saying, “Existence is reasonable. Without such peculiarities, how could they highlight the loveliness of those that have better character?”
Mo’er nodded hastily,” Eldest Young Miss is absolutely right!”
Liu Shimei smiled, “There are 12 more to go. Let’s go, the sooner we resolve them, the better. The road ahead is long and the responsibility is heavy!”
She waved her hand, “Mo’er, bring in the next one.”
Mo’er went to fetch the next patient.
While Liu Shimei attended to these women, Huangfu Lingyao sat in the inner hall, glaring at Duke An, who was sipping tea, with a disgusted expression.
“I mean, your illness wasn’t caused by Wife. You didn’t take care of yourself properly. Why put on this stinky face for everyone to see?”
In his mind, he was indignant as he thought, ‘Even though my wife didn’t look at this guy’s disgusting stuff, just hearing about those symptoms is nauseating enough, dirtying my wife’s ears!’
What’s more infuriating was that Miao Jie still had the nerve to give his wife a disgusted look as if she owed him something!
Like husband, like wife!
No wonder Madam Miao had such behavior!
What’s even more exasperating is that such a person can still carry the title of a virtuous family!
Liu Shimei knew that the Silly Second Prince’s reputation was tarnished, and Miao Jie thought it beneath his dignity to associate with him. Originally, he had no intention of speaking to him.
However, being insulted to his face, he couldn’t just let it go unanswered. Glaring at Huangfu Lingyao, he said, “King Dun Yu relies on questionable means to win a virtuous wife like Eldest Miss Liu. Show some respect for her!”
Surprisingly, the civil official hit the mark with his response.
Huangfu Lingyao heard this and thought, ‘Oh no! He’s saying I’ve brought shame to my wife. When did I do that?’
But he couldn’t say that aloud and instead retorted indignantly, “It’s none of your business! This is a family matter!”
Full of childishness, he lacked coherence.
Miao Jie coldly snorted, saying, “But what you just said is also a matter concerning my Miao family! Dunyu Wang, are you overstepping your bounds?”
In response, the Silly Second Prince stood firm, saying, “My affairs don’t trouble you, but the matters of your Miao family disturbed Wife!”
Miao Jie was speechless.
“Those who are not of the same mind should not conspire together!” He stood up, swung his sleeves, and walked out, determined to stay far away from this fool!
Huangfu Lingyao was also speechless.
Clearly, it’s you, Miao Jie, who has the contagious disease, yet why does it seem like I’m the one poisoned?
Of course, the Silly Second Prince would never reflect on himself: he indeed had a toxic personality!
With Miao Jie gone, Huangfu Lingyao grew bored again, staring at the hourglass and counting the time. “Why hasn’t Wife come out yet?”
“Why is she taking so long?”
“That Miao guy is really something. Couldn’t he have just married one person? Why seek so many concubines!?”
Because of this question, he thought of Liu Shimei and his expression gradually improved. “I’m different. I promised Wife that she’s the only one for me!”
Triumphant!
His wife was the best person in the world. Although Miao Jie called him disgusting, he got one thing right: Eldest Miss Liu is such a virtuous wife!
Isn’t she a virtuous wife?
