"What?" Su Mengyan pointed at herself in disbelief and said, "Master, you want to take me with you?"
"Aren't you worried? I'll give you a chance to watch me." Situ Yao said in a low voice, leaning close to her, "Isn't this good?"
Su Mengyan's heartbeat quickened because of his sudden approach, and she subconsciously took a step back. "Young Master, you are a clean man. I have nothing to worry about."
"Really?" Situ Yao looked at her expressionless face, feeling a little unhappy. "Then are you going or not?"
"Go, of course." Su Mengyan went because she wanted to see what kind of person Wang Shouli really was, not because she was afraid that Situ Yao was having an affair outside.
"But sir, I'm a girl. It might not be a good idea to bring me along." Su Mengyan had a new worry in her mind. "What if they see you bringing me along and don't want to show their true colors?"
Situ Yao waved back, and Qing Feng stepped forward, "What do you want, sir?"
"Go find a set of men's clothes that suits Yan'er and send it over as soon as possible." After Situ Yao gave the order, Qingfeng left with a strange look.
When Su Mengyan heard about men's clothing, she knew what he was going to do, and she was a little excited. She wondered if she could also become a handsome young man?
Seeing the sparkling look in her eyes, Situ Yao guessed what she was thinking. He shook his head and smiled, without breaking her fantasy.
Cui Mixue, who came down from upstairs, happened to see Situ Yao's smile and fell in love with him instantly.
Unfortunately, that didn't belong to her. When Situ Yao faced her, he didn't even bother to say a few words, let alone smile. Cui Mixue stared at the clueless Su Mengyan with jealousy.
It was all because of this woman. She had taken away everything that should have belonged to me! Cui Mixue's expression was distorted as she stared at Su Mengyan intently.
Su Mengyan, who was imagining herself in men's clothing, suddenly felt a thorn in her back. She turned around and saw Cui Mixue looking at her with a smile.
She looked at Situ Yao suspiciously, wondering if she had been wrong just now. Why did she feel that there was murderous intent? He didn't need to kill her now.
Su Mengyan thought that it was Situ Yao who was staring at her and didn't suspect Cui Mixue at all.
"Young Master, Yan'er, so you're all here." Cui Mixue walked up to them, smiling calmly, "I've been looking for you for a long time."
Situ Yao was speechless, so Su Mengyan took the initiative to answer her, "What do you want us for?"
"Lord Gu and I have researched a prescription, but we don't know if it can cure the plague. We don't dare to use it on Qing'er rashly, so we wanted to ask you and the young master for your opinions." Cui Mixue has been staying indoors for the past few days, thinking about the prescription.
She was eager to take advantage of this opportunity to make Situ Yao look at her differently, and she read many medical books day and night.
Su Mengyan was delighted at first, "Really?" Then she pulled Situ Yao's sleeve and said, "Sir, Miss Cui has figured out a cure for the plague."
"I heard it." Situ Yao's voice was neither cold nor warm, and he seemed to be indifferent. It wasn't that he didn't care about the plague, but he knew Cui Mixue's medical skills very well.
She came to say at this time that the prescription for the plague had been found, just to show off, whether it was useful or not was secondary.
"Sir, do you think we should try it on Qing'er now? What if it really works?" At this time, Su Mengyan regretted very much that she had not looked at more modern prescriptions before, otherwise she could help now, and she would not have to watch such a young child like Qing'er being tortured by the plague.
Situ Yao glanced at her calmly and said, "If someone died after taking this medicine, would you be willing to let Qing'er die?"
Su Mengyan was stunned for a moment, "That's right."
"Sir, all the herbs in my prescription are from medical books." Cui Mixue was about to cry after hearing what they said. She twisted her handkerchief and said, "No, it's impossible for me to eat something that would kill someone."
"That's hard to say." Situ Yao said coldly, looking at her without any emotion. "You just said that the prescription was developed by you and Doctor Gu together, so please invite Master Gu over as well."
Cui Mixue panicked immediately and said with her head down, "Master Gu is taking care of Qing'er. I'm afraid it's not appropriate for you to go look for him now."
"Is it inappropriate, or is Miss Cui afraid?" Situ Yao's eyes seemed to be able to see through everything. Cui Mixue lowered her head and did not dare to look him in the eye.
Su Mengyan finally figured out something from their conversation. She thought that Cui Mixue had probably come up with this prescription on her own, and she wanted to use it on Qing'er without any testing.
It would be fine if it had no effect, but I was afraid that drinking it would actually kill someone. Thinking about how she almost agreed just now, Su Mengyan showed a rather annoyed expression.
The heroine in the original work is a brave, resourceful, kind and intelligent character, so how could she become like this?
Su Mengyan stared at Cui Mixue in confusion and said with a smile, "Let's go get Doctor Gu over. Let Qing'er get some sleep on her own."
Fine beads of sweat appeared on Cui Mixue's forehead. She said with great difficulty, "Young Master and Yan'er are right. I don't have enough experience. I still need to let Master Gu take a look at it first."
Su Mengyan looked at her in surprise. She thought she would find ways to refuse, but she didn't expect her to agree so quickly.
Little did she know that under Situ Yao's gaze that could freeze someone to death, Cui Mixue dared not shake her head and refuse, and could only agree insincerely.
After a while, Lord Gu arrived. He had been thinking about how to cure the plague and had no time to take care of himself. When I first saw him, I thought he was a beggar from somewhere.
"Sir, what do you want to see me about?" asked Lord Gu.
"I just heard from Miss Cui that you have developed a prescription for curing the plague. This is good news, so I thought I'd come over to ask you about it." Situ Yao didn't say it directly, but as soon as he finished speaking, he saw Doctor Gu, as if he had heard a big joke, and smiled bitterly, "Where did you hear that from, sir? I haven't found a useful method yet. I wish what you said was true."
Cui Mixue's vision darkened, and she felt so ashamed and angry that she wanted to find a hole to crawl into. She had originally thought that with the addition of Lord Gu, Situ Yao would trust her more and let her make the medicine, but in the end, she ended up shooting herself in the foot.
"It seems that Miss Cui is lying?" Situ Yao asked her coldly.
Before Cui Mixue could think of a suitable reason, Lord Gu asked in surprise, "Could it be that Miss Cui has come up with a solution?"
"Where is the prescription? Let me see it quickly." Doctor Gu was so desperate that he forgot that Cui Mixue's medical skills were only mediocre. Even he couldn't think of a way to treat the plague, so how could Cui Mixue know it?
