Xiao Yao

Xiao Yao’s self-evaluation: obedient, sensible, and a proper lady.

However, in the eyes of others, she was mischievous, pretended to be well-behaved, and lazed around to get through the days....

Chapter 320: Taking the Gu

Regarding Yun Yichen's visit again, the Xiao family had only one feeling: apart from this son-in-law, there was probably no other son-in-law who would go to his father-in-law's house twice a day!

When the Xiao family heard the news he brought, they were excited. They had waited for nearly two months and finally the miracle doctor came.

On the day Lin You went to Beijing, Yun Yichen, as the representative of Prince Jing's Mansion, arrived at the agreed location early. The Xiao family, headed by Xiao Jingkang and Xiao Jingyan, took their nephews and nieces who were able to take leave to welcome the miracle doctor.

Near noon, Lin You, dressed in blue with a bag slung over his shoulder, appeared in everyone's sight, accompanied by a teenage boy carrying a medicine box on his back.

"I'm sorry to have kept you waiting, Lord Marquis. Actually, I can find the way to the Marquis of Loyalty and Bravery's Mansion by myself." Lin You clasped his fists and greeted Xiao Jingkang. Xiao Jingyan was his friend, and Yun Yichen was the son of his good friend. He didn't want to be polite with these two people.

"I, Xiao Jingkang, will always remember the great kindness of Divine Doctor Lin. If Divine Doctor Lin is ever of any use to me in the future, I will do my utmost to help him."

"There's no need to go all out and go to all that trouble. If I can wake Ping An up, I can just let her recognize me as her godfather." Lin You smirked and glanced at Yun Yichen. This guy will be his son-in-law in the future! He didn't expect that after all the twists and turns, he would finally get such a great deal.

Xiao Jingkang and others who reacted turned their eyes to Yun Yichen and asked, "Prince, what do you think about this matter?"

"You should wake him up first and then talk about other things." If the little girl could wake up, not to mention calling him godfather, he would be willing to serve him tea and water every day.

"Can we go back and talk?" Xiao Jingyan came over and pushed Lin You to walk quickly. The carriage was waiting in front, and there was a large group of people at home who were eagerly waiting!

"Let's go! Ah Chen, you have to be more respectful to Uncle Lin from now on, okay?" Lin You said this while deliberately patting Yun Yichen on the shoulder as he passed by him. Yun Yichen pretended not to understand what he said, stepped aside, mounted his horse, and followed him to the Xiao family.

"Don't you want to avoid suspicion?" Lin You looked at the Xiao family and then at Yun Yichen. These people were much more open-minded than he had imagined.

"I see Uncle Lin is quite free, so let's hurry up! The old man and the others are still waiting for you, the distinguished guest, at home!" Yun Yichen looked at everyone returning to their seats, and in order to prevent Lin You from making trouble for him again, he quickly waved his hand to let the team return.

The Xiao family prepared a sumptuous banquet to entertain Lin You. After the meal, Lin You changed into clean clothes and went to Xiao Yao's residence.

Seeing Xiao Yao again after seven years, Lin You was not surprised at her changes. He had heard of the title of the most beautiful woman in Kyoto when he was traveling outside. Thinking about how Xiao Yao looked when she was a child, he believed that this was a well-deserved title.

While Lin You examined Xiao Yao, the Xiao family sat in the outer living room, anxiously awaiting the results. When King Jing finished his work and arrived with his wife and daughter, Lin You had not yet left Xiao Yao's room.

"Ping'an will be fine soon." Yin Qianhua patted Tong Mingyu's hand to comfort her. As a mother and a daughter, she could certainly understand Tong Mingyu's feelings at this moment.

"Divine Doctor Lin is out." Xiao Yuan cheered excitedly. What she wanted most was to hear the divine doctor announce in public the good news that her sister would wake up soon. This was not only her wish, but also the expectation of everyone present.

"Ping'an has indeed been poisoned by a love Gu. The mother Gu is on the other person. If the spell is cast properly, Ping'an will obey him for the rest of his life." This is also why Lin You hates witchcraft. It is too much to change other people's lives at will based on one's own selfish wishes.

"We must not let this despicable Luo Yan go." Xiao Jun slammed his fist on the table. If anyone dared to bully the Xiao family, he would never be let off easily.

Princess Xiyue lowered her head in embarrassment. It seemed that her cousin was inextricably linked to this matter. With Xiyue around, the others couldn't say anything, but their gloomy faces showed that they were extremely angry and dissatisfied.

Yun Yichen clenched his fists and secretly vowed to avenge this.

"Let's put other things aside for now. The most important issue now is how to remove the poisonous insect from Ping'an's body and make her wake up." Lin You didn't want to say too much in front of Princess Xiyue. Some things can be discussed privately with Prince Jing and his son. There is no need to let everyone know.

"You decide what to do, and we will listen to you." Xiao Jingkang expressed his opinion immediately.

"Don't be so polite, my dear in-laws. Just tell Lin You if you have something to say and let him do it." King Jing signaled Lin You to speak quickly, as everyone was waiting!

"Of course we have to lure the Gu worm out. There's only one way to lure it out, and that's by bleeding." Lin You said solemnly. Seeing everyone looking at him in confusion, Lin You began to explain, "The longer this Gu worm stays in Ping An's body, the more harmful it will be to her. It's not fixed but moves around. If it gets into the brain or heart, it will be difficult to save her.

Currently, the only way to remove the parasite is through bloodletting. To prevent her from losing too much blood, someone will need to replace her blood with fresh blood at the critical moment."

"Exchange my blood for my junior sister." Yun Yichen spoke first. He was really willing to do so without any reluctance.

"Your blood won't do. Only a close relative's blood will do."

The Xiao family began to fight over who would be the one to give blood to Xiao Yao, and they were almost fighting but still couldn't reach a conclusion.

"Do you think this is easy? If you are not careful, your life will be in danger. Once you start this, you can't stop. If the poisonous insect doesn't come out after all the blood is drained, both of you will die." Lin You warned.

"Others should stop arguing. This is our Yayuan's business, and Ping'an is my daughter, so let me do it!" Xiao Jingkang said calmly.

"Father, I am Ping'an's brother. Let me give her a blood transfusion!" Xiao Yi looked at his wife apologetically. As the eldest brother, he could not retreat at this time. Liu Siyi nodded to her husband. She understood what he meant.

"Godly doctor, I want to ask you, is it true that the closer the relationship, the better the effect of blood transfusion?" Xiao Jun asked humbly.

"That's right."

"Then what are we arguing about? Are any of you closer than my sister and I?" Xiao Jun smiled triumphantly, finally finding a way in which others were inferior to him. Twins! Who could compare to this relationship?

As soon as Xiao Jun said this, no one else spoke. The relationship between these brother and sister is unmatched.

Tong Mingyu slumped in the chair, feeling powerless. She had thought that as long as she found Lin You, her daughter would wake up soon! She hadn't expected this hidden worry. Not only might she lose her daughter, but she might even lose a son.

If anything happened to these two children, I would probably die too.

"I will do my best to save their lives. Let's set this up for two days. I'll go prepare the relevant items. You should also give Ajun more blood-enriching tonics." Lin You said as he packed the medicine box.

"If you need any medicinal herbs, just go to Prince Jing's mansion and get them. I have an old ginseng here. It should be enough to save your life." Prince Jing also put away his joking thoughts. He didn't dare to imagine what would become of his son if something happened to his daughter-in-law.

The two days passed quickly. That day, the Xiao family gathered in Yaoyuan Building, and the people from Prince Jing's Mansion also arrived early. They were all waiting for Lin You.

A room, improvised at Lin You's request, had been cleaned and fumigated with vinegar. Two long couches were placed side by side. Lin You asked Xiao Jingkang to send someone to bring Xiao Yao over. Xiao Jingkang was about to go himself when Xiao Jun smiled and pleaded, "Let me hold my sister for once!"

If anything unexpected happens, this may be the last time he hugs his sister. Xiao Jun thinks that even if he sheds his last drop of blood, he will have no regrets as long as he can save his sister.

For this special day today, Tong Mingyu made two new sets of clothes for the children. Although Xiao Jun and Xiao Yao are twins, this is the first time they wear clothes of the same color and style.

Everyone stood up and watched Xiao Jun carrying Xiao Yao into the room step by step. Lin You closed the door and drew the curtains with his own hands.

Time passed by little by little, a quarter of an hour, two quarters of an hour, half an hour...

Why hasn't there been any news yet? The little girl is so thin. How much blood can be shed after such a long time? Yun Yichen felt his head buzzing. Suddenly, Xiao Yao's face was pale and blood was all over the ground. Then, Lin You walked out, shaking his head and sighing.

He silently prayed in his heart that the brother and sister would be fine, but the bloody scenes kept changing in front of his eyes. Being caught in the middle of fire and water, Yun Yichen became more and more scared and had long lost his usual calmness and composure.

Tong Mingyu's situation is not much better than Yun Yichen's. She has a pair of children inside! A pair in life, a pair in death. Which mother would not worry?

"Boy Yun, come with me for a walk outside." Seeing that Yun Yichen looked unhappy, the old man wanted to take him out for some fresh air.

Yun Yichen didn't want to leave at all, but he was afraid that Lin You would suddenly open the door and say something he couldn't accept. The word "confused" struck his mind for the first time today.

After being reminded by the old man, Prince Jing and Xiao Jingkang realized that Yun Yichen was a little too nervous. If he continued to sit here, he would not know when he would be unable to hold on any longer: "Go!" The two spoke at the same time.

When Yun Yichen stood up and hesitated to leave, the door of the room was gently pushed open from the inside. Yun Yichen's heart was pounding like a drum. He wanted to stand up straight, but his hands and feet were stiff and could not be moved at all.

Everyone stared at Lin You, trying to read something from his face, but no one dared to speak first, for fear of hearing unacceptable news.

"The insect has been taken out."

Everyone can look at me, and I can look at you and breathe a sigh of relief in our hearts. God bless, the dark cloud that has been hanging over the Xiao family for two months is finally dissipating.

Xiao Jingkang asked excitedly: "You mean the two children are fine?"

Lin You smiled faintly, nodded and replied softly: "Yes."

Tong Mingyu was already physically and mentally exhausted. She had been able to hold on until now just to hear the news about her two children. After hearing Lin You's affirmative answer, she could no longer hold on and fainted in Xiao Jingkang's arms.

Lin You helped to feel Tong Mingyu's pulse and told everyone that she was just too excited and would be fine after a short rest. Xiao Jun would be fine soon after a rest and nutrition supplement.

When Xiao Yao can wake up depends on her own luck. Lin You can only guarantee that her life is not in danger, the rest depends on her.
