Chapter 253: A Face Thicker Than City Walls
one detail. This kind of rice paper is only sold to high-ranking officials. As for me now, I am just an ordinary citizen. How could I possibly afford it”"You once lived in the Prime Minister's Mansion..."Why don't you go back to bed It's cool at night, you'll catch a cold sleeping like this."
Xiao Yu sang tightened the blanket in her hands, feeling a bit uncomfortable when he exposed it like this. 。"Fools, we are martial artists. How could we catch a cold so easily" 。He moved the chair back to the table while he was speaking. 。He's good at this, whatever he uses will be put back in its place. Unlike her, she takes things and puts them wherever, then when she needs to find them, it's a mess. 。"Actually, you can go back to your room and rest. I'm fine sleeping alone." 。Xiao Yu Ge liked the feeling of being protected, but having him, a prince, act as her bodyguard here was a bit embarrassing. Besides, she was capable of protecting herself now. 。"I have something on my mind, I can't sleep well when you are not around." 。He knew she was the master of Frost and Snow Pavilion, with formidable martial arts skills. Yet, he still found himself instinctively protecting her, afraid that even a momentary lapse in attention could lead to her getting hurt. 。"Didn't you sleep soundly before you knew me" 。Xiao Yu Ge pouted and muttered softly under her breath before walking up to the mirror to comb her hair. 。Qing Luo is not here, she's really not very good at handling this. 。“Let me do it.” 。Qianting Xuan took the comb from her hand, lifted her hair, and gently combed it. Her hair was smooth and straight, silky as satin in his hand. 。Xiao Yu ge looked at him from the mirror, his serious expression warming her heart: "You are a prince, everything is provided for you since childhood. How can you be like this""I'm not very good at it, but I can learn slowly. It shouldn't be too difficult." 。To adorn her with flowers and paint her eyebrows, to grow old with her until their hair turns white—that is the most beautiful thing he can think of. 。"Are you sure that's still going to work I have a clinic visit tomorrow." "Don't worry, you'll see results today." 。He was brimming with confidence, his eyes sparkling with excitement, as if everything was under his control. 。"How did your face get hurt before Even the Emperor doesn't know if your face is healed, does he" she suddenly asked. 。He paused slightly, then smiled and said, "I'll tell you about the face wound later." 。Now besides you, He Ming, and Ming Yang, everyone else doesn't know that my face is better. 。"With such formidable martial arts skills, how did you get injured the night I saved you" Xiao Yuge couldn't understand. Even with his skills, he could still be wounded 。"I was ambushed, luckily I met you, otherwise, I'm afraid my life would have been lost there. That's our fate." 。"
Thinking of that night's scene, Xiao Yuge's face flushed immediately. 。"What are you thinking about Your face is so red. Oh, I remember now! That night we had some 'skin to skin' contact. Speaking of which, you have to take responsibility for me, don't you" 。"Qian Tingxuan teased her playfully. Seeing her blushing face, he couldn't help but feel a surge of joy." 。Speaking of what she was responsible for, Xiao Yuge found it both funny and a little sad. She pretended to be angry with him: "If that night had been any other man, I would have saved them too." 。As expected, upon hearing this, the smile on his face vanished: "You are not allowed to save other men!" He thought to himself, if it had been another man that night, she would have saved him too. The thought made him feel like he wanted to smash something. 。Xiao Yu ge turned back, held his face, and squeezed it tightly: "Sour dumpling!" Taking advantage of his inattention, she quickly kissed him before immediately getting up and running away: "I'm leaving, time for my rounds!" If she stayed any longer, she was afraid he would catch her and devour her. 。When Qian Tingxuan came to his senses, he gently touched the place she had kissed him. Joy spread in his heart....As soon as he stepped out the door, he almost bumped into Mingyang who was looking for him. 。“Grandpa!” Mingyang unconsciously took a step back. Actually, Grandpa being in Miss Xiao’s room was nothing new to him. What was strange was that Grandpa seemed to have blushed just now. For someone with a face as thick as a city wall like Grandpa, blushing was truly odd. 。"He's still standing there Xiao Ge is already gone, why aren't you leaving!" Qian Tingxuan didn't have time for him and quickly chased after Xiao Yu Ge. 。"Yes!" Mingyang hurriedly chased after him. 。"Auntie, you have rheumatoid arthritis. I'll prescribe some medicine for you to boil and apply as a warm compress. In your daily life, remember to keep warm..." Xiao Yuge patiently explained each villager's condition. 。This is a remote area, and usually it takes several old doctors half a day to feel the pulse of a patient. There's no one as quick and efficient as Xiao Yu Ge. Plus, she provides free medical care, so the villagers are naturally willing to come to her for treatment. 。Around noon, suddenly two old men came and broke in while Xiao Yu Ge and they were having their meal. 。“I presume this must be the divine physician!” The two elderly men rushed forward to greet Xiao Yuge as soon as they saw him. 。"Two elders, are you here to see a doctor" Xiao Yuge hurriedly put down her bowl and chopsticks and stood up to return the greeting: "If you're here to see a doctor, please wait over there for a moment, I'll be right there." 。"Doctor!" At that moment, the woman who had come to seek medical treatment with the two children the day before yesterday walked up behind them. Seeing Xiao Yuge, she was instantly moved and her eyes welled up with tears. 。"Sister-in-law, how are the two children doing" Seeing that woman appear, Xiao Yuge subconsciously glanced at Qian Tingxuan and instantly understood. It seemed his plan had worked. 。"Ping'er and An'er can already jump and play, all thanks to the divine doctor who saved them!" The woman said as she wiped away tears of joy. Children were her life, her in-laws' life; Xiao Yuge had saved them, which was like saving her whole family! At this time, the two elders also explained their intentions. 。As it turns out, they are the village heads of South Village and North Village. Many people in the villages now have various illnesses. For two years now, there hasn't been a single newborn in either village. They even invited some doctors back, but there was still no effect. 。As village heads, they were very anxious. If this continued, the generations-old salt-making skills of both South Village and North Village would go uninherited. So, when they heard that a divine healer had arrived here, they thought about inviting the healer to their village to check on the young people, hoping for good news. 。After hearing this, Xiao Yu Ge looked embarrassed and glanced at the villagers waiting to see a doctor, then at Qian Ting Xuan: "Cousin, what do you say" Qian Ting Xuan pretended to hesitate for a moment...... Actually, an elder saw this and hurriedly said: “Divine Physician, please rest assured, after we arrive, we will arrange accommodation for you all, everything regarding food, clothing, housing and transportation, we will take care of it. Moreover, seeing that this young master is also a well-read scholar, our Nan Village is in need of a teacher. If the young master is willing, we are willing to offer a high price to hire the young master to be a teacher in the village. What do you think""This......" "Cousin, anyway, there's nothing to do at home now, why not go take a look" 。Xiao Yuge accompanied him and persuaded, 。Okay, you said what you said. 。"Qian Tingxuan stroked her head in public, his doting eyes betraying their special relationship at a glance." 。Both elders saw this intimate gesture between the two, naturally understanding what was going on. It seemed that as long as they could persuade the Divine Physician, everything could be resolved smoothly. 。we shall meet again." With that, the voice quietly faded, as if it had never been there at all.Xiao Yu sang gazed into the depths of the bamboo forest, perhaps that hermit from another world lived the...
