Sixty-Nine Reencounter

  Sixty-nine again met - met Su Shifu again, Jiu sister was really surprised, half a month ago had already handed over the embroidery pattern secret book to her, obviously arranging for later things, but now she can sit in front of the table and drink tea, still thin and weak, but her spirit is not bad.

  Have I really met a divine doctor?

  "It's true, this doctor is indeed a divine physician. After three days of acupuncture and two doses of medicine, my cough has stopped, I can sleep soundly at night, and my breathing has improved significantly."

  "Really, Master? That's really great..." As expected, she had indeed encountered a divine doctor, and Jiujiu was naturally overjoyed.

  What can be more delightful than seeing those who care about you living a healthy life?

  "What's good?" But soon, Su Shi Fu smiled again and poured a basin of cold water, "That Lou Daifu also said that I was overworked and depressed for many years, my body was damaged too much, and it would be impossible to recover as before. Now, it's just prolonging life, absolutely cannot put more energy or work hard again, otherwise the medicine will not work."

  As soon as she heard this, Jiu's small face suddenly changed, "Master..."

  "All right, don't worry about me anymore, I know what to do. As for the embroidery workshop, I've already returned it to my brother, and the shops in the north and south have been sold off. The rest of the business has been handed over to Jun Zheng to manage. Now, all that's left for me is to focus on my health."

  "Is Big Brother Su busy coming over? Shouldn't we start preparing for the entrance ceremony soon?" Upon hearing Master Su mention Su Jun Zheng again, Ninth Sister's gaze shifted, and she seemed to unintentionally ask.

  Su Junzhen and Wen Jingshui were classmates, both of whom had achieved good results in the two exams in February and April. As it happened that there was a big exam at the beginning of autumn this year, they naturally busied themselves with studying like Wen Jingshui.

  Su Shifu was taken aback by her words, his gaze fell on her face, while she lowered her head and cast down her eyes.

  Su Shifu smiled, "Ninth sister doesn't know, this nephew of mine is not like your family's Old Fourth who only reads books and works hard. He has a clever mind, reads books with understanding, and never wastes time and effort on just book learning. But don't worry, his grades won't be bad."

  Wen Jingyu was not that bookworm who only read books and worked hard, Master Su said. Jiujie naturally did not agree with this, but she nodded instead of defending Wen Jingyu.

  In order to achieve a certain goal, sometimes people really need to keep some truths.

  Su Shi Fu was even more delighted, and began to chat with her about how Su Jun Zheng had managed the business in an orderly manner, and how he had settled the matter of his father and brother's death.

  It seems that I really wish them all the best for her and Su Junzhen's affair.

  She blushed and remained silent, secretly preparing herself mentally in her heart.

  Actually, Su Junzhen is not bad, although he's not very upright, but with Master Su in charge and getting a royal marriage or something, later on if he uses his brain a bit more, he should be able to live a stable life.

  Later, she had someone bring out her embroidery, and Su naturally praised it lavishly, also pointing out a few places for improvement.

  Afraid that Su would be overworked, she sat for a while longer before heading back.

  "Don't worry, soon the eunuch He will come to collect this embroidery, it's best if you hand it over to him personally. Maybe there are some other tasks that need to be assigned to you. Besides, Dr. Lou will also come over later to give me acupuncture. You've always wanted to find a famous doctor to ask about your aunt's rheumatism, haven't you?" But then Master Su detained her again.

  She hesitated for a moment, of course knowing that these were all excuses made up by Master Su.

  She certainly wanted to continue serving as Yang Guifei's lady-in-waiting, for that was not only an honor but also a golden ticket to immunity from death.

  However, in the imperial palace's embroidery workshop and among the common people's Embroidery Street and Embroidery Villas, there were many talented women like her who had the same idea, so competition was naturally fierce.

  Even if Empress Yang wants to consider Master Su's face, she should still look at her embroidery before making a decision. But her embroidery hasn't been presented yet, so isn't it too early to assign tasks to her?

  As for Aunt Xu's rheumatism, this excuse is even more far-fetched. Without seeing the patient and only hearing her daughter's brief description, even a divine doctor would not dare to prescribe medicine lightly.

  "Alright!" However, she still agreed because she understood that Su Shifu was doing this just to let her meet Su Junzhen and create more opportunities for the two of them.

  Since she had already decided to consider Su Junzhen, then there was no reason for her to refuse again.

  It wasn't long before Su Jun, who had gone out on an errand, returned.

  On his body was a brand new honey-colored silk changshan with straight sleeves, which made the young man look even more elegant and refined, radiant and unmatched.

  It must be him, huh... Ninth Sister couldn't help but think to herself.

  There isn't a perfect person made for you in this world; instead, you need to strive to create such a person.

  It was unclear whether it was Su Shifu, who had just entered the inner chamber, that had instructed Su Junzheng on something or if this clever and smooth-talking Su Junzheng had already sensed her interest from her gaze. Today, Su Junzheng was exceptionally enthusiastic towards her, so much so that she forgot herself and overstepped her bounds.

  Grapes, strawberries, peaches... a big pile of seasonal fruits were placed in front of her, and that white delicate hand personally handed them over to her.

  This made her feel quite embarrassed, and suddenly the stern face of Mrs. Li flashed in her mind, she didn't dare to sit down again, stood up and was about to bid farewell.

  Alas, there's no way out, after living in this strange world for several years, her thoughts have been invaded by feudalism.

  "Master, Mr. Lou and Prince Wei Yuan have arrived!" But just then, a servant rushed in to report.

  Na Su Jun immediately listened and was excited, hastily letting the maid on one side call her, while she herself hurried out to greet.

  She was full of doubts, how did this divine doctor get mixed up with this kind of horse king?

  Recalling the unpleasantness of a month ago, her delicate eyebrows couldn't help but furrow slightly. She turned around and let the maid lead her to the inner chamber, preparing to say something to Su Shifu before leaving.

  Su Shi Fu was indeed tired, so she didn't stay long. She said some words of farewell and good wishes to Su Shi Fu before preparing to leave.

  Su Shifu originally had her personal maid, Pin Hong, escort her, but just as they were about to leave, a maid rushed in and said that the divine doctor would be giving Su Shifu acupuncture soon.

  She thought that the girl might be needed by Su Shifu later, so she didn't let her send it, and directly called Qing Xiang and Qing Zhi to go to the carriage parked at the second gate.

  But it wasn't until later that Su Junzheng found out that Wen's family had asked the coachman to take the horses to the backyard to be washed, fed and groomed, while the guards were also invited in for tea.

  She then let the two of them go find those people, while she herself sat in a small pavilion at the edge of the corridor waiting. But after waiting for a while, she got up again and walked slowly along the corridor towards the outside, because the servants here at Su's residence were not as well-behaved as those at Wen's mansion, and would often cast a few prying glances in her direction.

  But just after walking a few steps, I heard a man's voice.

  Uh...

  She was taken aback, then gazed at the man walking towards her, surrounded by several soldiers and wearing a black tight-sleeved shirt with a high collar, silently lamenting that life is indeed full of wonders, the more you don't want to see someone, the more you encounter them.

  She naturally stopped in her tracks and turned around to head towards the other fork of the road.

  It wasn't until she stood under the scorching sun and felt dizzy that she regretted it, what was the point of this, and she hadn't done anything wrong either. As she thought about it, she turned around and headed back, only to run into Yang Guofeng again.

  Yang Guofeng also seemed to have never thought that he would meet her here, and his gaze was naturally full of surprise.

  What the heck! Does this place only allow you to come here?

  Jiujie's heart was secretly resentful, and her feet couldn't help but quicken their pace, planning to give him the cold shoulder.

  But unexpectedly, plans are inferior to changes. Just now, I suddenly felt dizzy in the brain that had just been sunbathed by the sun, and my feet also softened.

  Oh no, I've got low blood sugar!

  The ninth sister's heart cried out in distress, but her body was powerless and she fell straight to the ground.

  However, her body did not come into close contact with the ground, but a pair of large hands supported her in time. Then her eyes met a pair of deep black eyes with an unusual gaze.

  Uh...

  She was taken aback, wondering if she had done it on purpose.

  Pfft, this horse is really full of itself...

  But soon she didn't think about these things anymore, got anxious, her brain was a complete blank, and then completely fainted.

  When she woke up, she was lying in bed and faintly heard Qing Xing and a man's voice.

  "...... Doctor Luo, is my daughter all right?"

  "Hmm, no big deal, I'll just give her two doses of medicine to try...". The man's voice was clear and pleasant to listen to, neither too fast nor too slow, making one feel as if they were basking in a gentle spring breeze.

  Divine Doctor Lou Mu Bai?!!

  The ninth sister couldn't help but turn her eyes and secretly glance over.

  Needless to say, it was almost exactly as she had imagined.

  Wearing a cyan-colored loose robe with large sleeves, she looked elegant and beautiful, her whole demeanor exuding an air of calmness and warmth. The ninth sister couldn't help but think of the eight characters "A humble gentleman is warm and gentle like jade".

  "Awake?" At this time, the man turned around as if his back had grown eyes, smiling at her.

  "Uh..." The embarrassment of being caught peeking made Jiu's face instantly flush bright red, and she was about to get up and curtsy to him.

  "Miss Wenjiu is unwell, no need for excessive courtesy!" But Lou Mubai stopped her with a wave of his hand.

  But she still insisted on letting Qing An support her up, thanking Lou Mu Bai and also thanking her for treating Su Shifu.

  "A doctor's heart is like a parent's, no need to thank me!" The divine physician smiled slightly, but suddenly furrowed his brow and looked at her, "Miss Wenjiu, you were born with a weak constitution, I hope you take care of yourself. First, avoid staying up late, second, avoid excessive thinking, cultivate your energy in moderation, and conserve your true energy inwardly."

  The ninth sister naturally nodded hastily in agreement.

  "Is Ninth Miss awake?" Just as he spoke, a loud voice from outside the hall asked.

  The ninth sister was taken aback.

  "It's Master Su, he has been waiting outside and asked about Miss's situation." said Qingxi who came in with a tray.

  Sū Jūnzhèng!

  The ninth sister nodded and then asked someone to invite him in.

  It wasn't long before Jiu Jie'er was stunned again, because the one who came in was not only Su Junzhen, but also another person, that is, Wei Yuan Wang Yang Guofeng.

  Is this person also coming to see her? No way...

  ……
