Chapter 278 He Doesn't Hit Women, But He Can Make Exceptions

Xi Lin rushed out in a hurry, his hands covered in glaring blood.

He didn't have time to explain anything further and hurriedly asked the woman, "Excuse me, madam, have you ever seen a child born?"

The woman nodded blankly, tears falling down as she moved, and she looked extremely aggrieved.

Zhuang Shihan lightly clicked her tongue and shook her head, her eyes filled with disdain as she said, "What's the point of crying? To a man who doesn't love you, tears are the least valuable..."

"Shut up!"

Xi Lin glared at her, not disguising his dislike for her at all, and said, "How dare you think you're such a good person? You still have the nerve to teach others how to behave. How shameless!

What can you teach others?

It is to teach innocent girls to follow your example and break the rules, disguise themselves as men and sneak into the military camp to hook up with married men.

Or are you learning from your lack of sense of propriety and shame, leaving other families' wives behind and rushing to become someone else's concubine?"

After hearing this series of words, Zhuang Shihan's face turned pale with anger. Her lips trembled as she was about to open her mouth to refute, but she heard Doctor Li's anxious call from the backyard.

"Doctor Xi, has the princess returned? If we keep wasting time like this, it's going to be very bad for everyone!"

Zhuang Shihan's eyes lit up, and she hurriedly asked, "Is the pregnant woman who moved in the day before yesterday about to give birth? I can help."

Xi Lin didn't bother to look at her, and only reminded the woman, "The baby is in an abnormal position and the delivery is difficult. She is very worried. As a woman, you must be able to speak with her. Please go over and comfort her."

As he spoke, he turned and instructed the medicine boy beside him, "Hurry up and wait at the city gate. Tell them that Xi is begging Princess Yong'an to come and save us."

Zhuang Shihan, who was listening at the side, felt her teeth itching and blurted out, "It's just a difficult birth. It's not like Song Yanxi has to be the one to have a knife cut into her belly.

Leave it to me and I will keep it safe for both the big and small."

Hearing her say it so easily and even brazenly saying she wanted to operate on the woman in labor, Xi Lin couldn't help but clench his fists, and for a moment he wanted to hit her.

He doesn't hit women, but he can make exceptions.

Zhuang Shihan took two steps back and asked cautiously, "Are you going to hit a woman?"

Xi Lin gritted his teeth, threw down a sentence "You are a human being too", turned around and strode away.

Seeing this, the woman wiped her tears and hurriedly followed.

She took a few quick steps, as if she had thought of something, and turned to look at Zhuang Shihan, her slightly red and tearful eyes filled with anger.

Their eyes met, and the woman said with a cold face, "I know that my status is low and I am not worthy to be mentioned in the same breath with the princess, let alone try to persuade the princess with my cheap words.

But there is one thing I want you to remember, Princess.

If a person does not practice virtue with his words while alive, he will go to hell where tongues are pulled out after his death!"

After saying this, the woman turned around and left, not even giving her a chance to refute.

Looking at her departing back, Zhuang Shihan realized that she had just been scolded and was so angry that she almost laughed out loud on the spot.

Go to hell?

People like her would be avoided by evil spirits. How could she be afraid of this?

She wanted to see who would go to hell first!

Zhuang Shihan looked at the medicine boy beside her and ordered, "Chunsheng, go back to the General's Mansion and get the box I used to perform surgery."

Chunsheng frowned and lowered his voice, "Princess, please think twice. Before leaving, the Duke repeatedly warned you not to…"

"Are you mine or his?"

"I am naturally the princess's man."

"Why don't you get out of here?"

Seeing him still standing there motionless, Zhuang Shihan couldn't help but frown and asked in a cold voice, "Your wings are now hardened, and this princess can no longer use them, right?"

Sensing the familiar danger in her eyes, Chunsheng trembled with fear and shook his head desperately.

Fearing that someone might notice, Zhuang Shihan lowered her voice and said, "Then hurry up and go! If you don't come back within half an hour, I'll make you pay."

Chunsheng nodded hurriedly, and when he ran out, he didn't pay attention to the high threshold at the entrance of the clinic, and he was tripped and flew out.

His palms scraped against the ground, leaving two bloody marks. The pain made his face suddenly change color.

Butcher Zheng, who was standing by, quickly reached out to help him up, and asked with concern, "Little brother, did you fall anywhere?"

"No...no." Chunsheng's face turned pale and he pushed him away hurriedly, fearing that he would ask more questions, and turned around and ran away quickly.

Only Butcher Zheng was left standing there, looking at his departing back with a confused look on his face.

He asked the person next to him: "Why is this little brother running so fast? He looks like he's being chased by a dog. Didn't he sound quite powerful when he yelled at us just now?"

"Who knows? Maybe the people from the capital are different from those from our border town. Like master, like servant. Didn't you see that the master of Shihan County is also two-faced?"

"Wang Lao Er, I don't like what you say. Even though there's a deadly disease in the city, the princess didn't even bother abandoning us and running away alone. This shows that her words and actions are consistent.

If it weren't for her, your mother would have died long ago, right?

If I hear you say anything bad about the princess again, don't blame me for being blind with my butcher knife."

Hearing this, Wang Lao Er wanted to curse his mother and couldn't help but retort: ​​"You are quite shameless to criticize others. You were the loudest among everyone just now. The princess was listening right beside us!"

"Yeah, there are some things you can say that others can't, right?"

Butcher Zheng raised his hand and slapped himself in the face, saying, "I'm a bad mouth, I deserve to die, okay?"

Startled by his sudden outburst of rage, Wang Lao Er blurted out, "Are you fucking sick? Did she save your life in a previous life or something? Why do you listen to her so much?"

He wanted to say something but was stopped by the person next to him.

"Stop talking now! Everyone in this city is counting on the princess for help. What good will it do to anger her?"

Someone murmured quietly, "There's more than one doctor in Border Town."

As soon as he finished speaking, Butcher Zheng pushed Wang Laoer away and was about to jump up and punch him.

The man dodged by turning his head away, and could not help but spit and cursed: "Zheng, you are really a good dog raised by the princess, biting whoever you point your finger at."

"How dare you scold me? I'll beat you to death today!"

The two had a conflict before, and after a few words exchanged, they became so angry that they started fighting.

One is a butcher who has a lot of strength from slaughtering pigs and selling meat on a daily basis; the other is a bodyguard who has been escorting convoys all year round, and his muscular body and skills are beyond reproach.

Neither of them was a pushover. They were fighting each other, and the people around them didn't even dare to stop them, for fear that someone would hit them in the face with a fist if they didn't aim correctly.

Seeing them fighting and shoving each other as if they were heading back to the clinic, Doctor Sun, who was hiding behind the medicine cabinet, ran over to Zhuang Shihan and said anxiously, "Princess, please try to stop them quickly. If they keep fighting like this, something bad will happen."

If a fight breaks out later, even ten Huichuntangs won’t be enough to deal with these people.

The key point is that he and a few medicine boys are helping to run the medicine shop, and they are not allowed to get involved in fighting or mediating fights. To put it bluntly, Butcher Zheng alone can knock down several of them.

At present, the people are already dissatisfied due to the lack of medicine, and there is no guarantee that some of them will be angry and take action against them.

Zhuang Shihan raised an eyebrow, "Why, you don't want to be a coward anymore?"
