Chapter 61 Doctor He was startled

I'm definitely hungry!

But it was pitch black at this time, with only a few rays of moonlight shining in. It must be nighttime, and there was nothing to eat.

When Mo Qinghe saw his wife shake her head, he didn't know what to say for a moment.

Su Nanxi looked at him in disbelief, suspecting that her cheap husband had been replaced.

Mo Qinghe felt uncomfortable under her gaze, and his mind started to twitch. Remembering what the book said, he regained his confidence and courage. In front of his wife, face and pride were unnecessary.

The two were about a foot apart, and although the night was dim, they could still see each other clearly.

Mo Qinghe held her left hand tightly in both hands, brought it to his lips, and kissed it. He apologized profusely, saying, "Wife, I was wrong. I shouldn't have argued with you. I was too childish. But I won't do it again. Please forgive me, okay? If you want me to study, I'll study hard. If you want to go back to the capital, I'll go back with you! I'll do whatever you say!"

Su Nanxi was caught off guard by his sudden move and was completely dumbfounded by the end. When did she say she wanted to go back to the capital?! She didn't even know where the capital was!

Mo Qinghe was also taken aback. "Wife, isn't your family in the capital?"

Tsk! She wouldn't know!

Mo Qinghe was puzzled and asked cautiously, "Wife, where do you live?"

I don't know!

Mo Qinghe was even more bewildered. How could he not even know where his own home was?

If you have amnesia, you won't know!

Besides, can she go back to the way she was before?

Mo Qinghe was filled with remorse. It turned out that his wife didn't remember anything. How could she have been so scheming?

His wife genuinely wanted to cure his leg and let him study, and she never intended to use him as a stepping stone to help her return to the capital! He really thinks too highly of himself!

He has nothing, so how could his wife know that he would definitely pass the high school entrance exam? Passing the high school entrance exam is easier said than done!

His wife isn't a fortune teller who can predict the future, yet she's placing all her hopes on him! He's really too arrogant and conceited!

Mo Qinghe kissed her hand again, his eyes brimming with tears, looking pitiful. "Wife, I was wrong. I shouldn't have made wild guesses about you! You can hit me or punish me, I'll accept it and I won't resist!"

Oh dear! How could she possibly do it?!

He was clearly handsome and extraordinary, and usually exuded a cold aura, but now he suddenly turned into a pitiful and delicate beauty, with tears streaming down his face. This stark contrast is just too captivating!

Seeing this softened her heart; she found it incredibly endearing.

The two resolved their differences, reconciled, and slept together again, holding hands.

As dawn broke, Old Madam Mo arrived with Madam Qin and Madam Zhao, preparing to pick up Su Nanxi. "Third son," she said, "your father just borrowed an oxcart. We'll lift the mute mother onto the oxcart in a bit and take her to the county town for medical treatment. I'm worried, so I'll come along. You and your father stay home and take care of the children, understand?"

Mo Qinghe had just gotten up. He knew his family wanted to send his wife to the county town for treatment, so he wanted to get up before them. However, he had been chatting for too long last night and was so sleepy that he got up a little late. His mother had already brought people in.

"Mother, the mute woman woke up last night. She said she felt fine. Should we ask Doctor He to come and take a look?"

Seeing that they were about to take his wife away, Mo Qinghe quickly explained the situation.

Grandma Mo paused, and after a long while asked, "Has the mute girl woken up?"

Mo Qinghe nodded.

Su Nanxi was also woken up. She slowly opened her eyes and was stunned to see a room full of people staring at her.

What's going on?

Old Mrs. Mo's worried expression vanished, and she exclaimed joyfully, "Mute Mother! You're awake! Oh dear, oh dear, I'll go and fetch Doctor He right now, I'll go right now, you just lie there!"

After saying that, he smiled and quickly walked out.

She walks so lightly, it feels like a little girl skipping and jumping.

When Qin and Zhao saw that Su Nanxi had woken up, they were very happy. They told her to rest while they went to cook breakfast and then went out.

Mo Qinghe held his wife's hand, stroked it a couple of times, and said softly, "Wife, lie down for a while longer!"

Judging from her condition, she couldn't get up and had to continue lying down.

Doctor He arrived quickly. When he heard that Su Nanxi had woken up, he was so shocked that he could barely hold the scales. He looked incredulous and found it unbelievable. In order to find out what was going on, he immediately grabbed his medicine box and rushed over.

After taking her pulse, he was so shocked that he was stunned for a long time. How could this be?

Looking at Doctor He's face, Old Lady Mo felt a sense of unease. What was wrong? Was there no hope? Was this a final flicker of life before death?

Zhao asked directly, "Doctor, what exactly is wrong with our mute mother? Don't just stand there, tell us quickly!"

Oh! Doctor He snapped out of his daze, realizing he had lost his composure. He stroked his beard to cover his embarrassment before slowly saying, "The poison has been neutralized, but there's still some residual toxicity. Just be careful. If you're worried, I can prescribe a couple of doses of medicine to clear it up."

Hearing that it wasn't bad news, Old Mrs. Mo felt relieved. "Then please prescribe the medicine. Please come outside."

Hearing that Su Nanxi was alright, everyone breathed a sigh of relief and, without investigating how the poison was neutralized, happily got to work.

The children cheered and jumped for joy, wanting to rush into the house to see their third aunt, but Qin stopped them all by reaching out her hand.

"Your third aunt needs to rest and can't make any noise. Why don't you go see her for now? Go see her in a couple of days when she's better, okay?"

Mo Jiarong was very sensible and nodded, "Okay, then let Third Aunt get better soon, and we won't bother her."

The other children agreed and all agreed.

Mo Yunmei thought her family had sent Su Nanxi to the county town, and without adult supervision, she slept soundly until the sun was high in the sky.

The others were too busy to pay attention to her; they were all preoccupied with their own things.

Not long after Su Nanxi finished eating a bowl of porridge, Mo Qinghe brought in a bowl of medicine, which smelled extremely bitter to her from afar.

I don't want to drink! Can I not drink it?

Mo Qinghe saw that her brows were furrowed, her mouth was tightly closed, and she smiled with great resistance and without any conscience.

Seeing Mo Qinghe smile, Su Nanxi turned her head away haughtily.

Mo Qinghe wanted to laugh even more, but he knew his wife was angry, so he didn't dare to laugh anymore. He suppressed his laughter and coaxed, "Okay, wife, I won't laugh anymore. Drink this bowl of medicine quickly, and you'll feel better soon."

Hmph! It's so bitter, I don't want to drink it!

You'll laugh at me!

Besides, she secretly drank a lot of spiritual spring water last night, so the poison should be almost completely neutralized. Whether she takes medicine or not doesn't matter anymore.

Mo Qinghe insisted that she drink it, believing that it would clear away the remaining toxins before he could feel at ease. However, his wife was uncooperative, so in the end, he had no choice but to resort to his trump card.

Mo Qinghe said softly, "Wife, I fed you water with my mouth last night. Do you want me to feed you water with my mouth now? You are my wife. I will satisfy whatever you want. So I will feed you water!"

Su Nanxi was shocked. What?! Passing it over with his mouth?!

She imagined the scene for a moment, and her face instantly turned red.

She'll do it herself!
