After a long while, he said helplessly, "When we return to Beijing, I will need you. Now go learn how to ride a horse."
The good horse that Situ Yao brought was tall and handsome. It took Su Mengyan some effort just to get on the horse. After the person and the horse became familiar with each other, she did not dare to gallop, but just walked slowly in the wilderness.
Even just strolling was a very novel experience for Su Mengyan.
It wasn't until dusk that Situ Yao came over to remind her, "It's time to go back."
Su Mengyan was reluctant to leave. In such a beautiful scenery, even the usually cold Situ Yao became a little more gentle.
"Let's go." Situ Yao reached out and pulled her, "There will be opportunities in the future."
As soon as he returned to the refugee camp outside the city, he saw Cui Mixue standing there. Situ Yao frowned and whispered in Su Mengyan's ear, "Stay away from her in the future."
Su Mengyan nodded, but she couldn't stay away just because she wanted to, because Cui Mixue seemed to be stuck to her and was around her all the time.
"You are my concubine, there is no need to give in to her." After Situ Yao said this, he took her off the horse.
Cui Mixue looked at Situ Yao eagerly, as if she wanted to say something. However, he just took Su Mengyan to the door and turned away.
"Young Master..." The words Cui Mixue wanted to say were stuck in her throat, and her expression was extremely awkward.
Su Mengyan thought about what Situ Yao said, and wondered when the relationship between the hero and heroine would develop.
"The young master has to go back to the city to deal with Wang Shouli's matter, so he's in a hurry to leave." Su Mengyan wanted to comfort her, but Cui Mixue didn't appreciate it.
There was no trace of a smile on her face. She said coldly, "Don't tell me."
"Miss Cui," Su Mengyan said to her tactfully, "Some things depend on chance. You don't have to dwell on the present. Maybe there will be a turning point in the future."
"Heh!" Cui Mixue sneered, her face was as cold as ice under the moonlight.
Su Mengyan felt that her gaze was like ice chips, piercing her.
"I was mistaken before, thinking that you really didn't like the young master and would really be willing to help me." Cui Mixue sneered, "How could you be willing to share someone like the young master with others?"
Su Mengyan was dissatisfied with her secret sarcasm. She had agreed to help her just to make the plot reach the end as soon as possible so that she could go home.
"If Miss Cui thinks so, then I have nothing to say." Su Mengyan said expressionlessly, "But I still want to remind you that when it comes to matters of the heart, no one else can interfere."
After saying this, Su Mengyan turned and left. As for what Cui Mixue would think, that was none of her business.
Anyway, she didn't want to be caught between Situ Yao and Cui Mixue. After this incident, she no longer had to be caught in a dilemma.
Thinking that she wouldn't have to worry about offending people all day long, Su Mengyan even smiled when she slept.
"Oh no." The next morning, Su Mengyan was awakened by a loud noise. When she opened the door, she saw several doctors passing by hurriedly outside the courtyard, looking as if they wished they had four legs.
Su Mengyan forcibly stopped Doctor Gu and asked, "What happened?"
"The child is in critical condition." Doctor Gu was sweating profusely. "It was an emergency last night. We tried everything but it was useless. We've already asked a miracle doctor to come over, but we don't know how the child is doing."
With Xiaoyaozi around, Su Mengyan wasn't too worried. She comforted the overly anxious Doctor Gu, "Don't worry, the miracle doctor will find a way."
"I hope so." Doctor Gu looked up at the sky. "Last night, I brewed the medicine according to the new prescription and gave it to everyone. If something happens to that child, the other patients will also have problems."
This is also the reason why all the doctors were paying close attention to Zhao Qing's condition early in the morning.
Su Mengyan understood why he was anxious and planned to go see Zhao Qing with Doctor Gu.
When they arrived, Zhao Qing's father, Zhao Hu, was waiting outside. Su Mengyan walked over and asked him, "How is Qing'er?"
"The doctor is inside taking his pulse." Zhao Hu's eyes were filled with worry. Because he hadn't recovered from the plague yet, he could only stay away, not daring to get close to Zhao Qing. He then asked Su Mengyan in a hoarse voice, "Qing'er, I'll need you to take care of him for a few days. Please don't hide anything from me about his condition. I can accept any outcome."
Zhao Hu was a rough man, but he had heard the old man talk about the plague and knew it was a terminal illness that was fatal and would not heal. So he had already made preparations for his family to reunite underground.
Su Mengyan's face was heavy as she nodded and said, "Don't worry, with the miracle doctor here, Qing'er will be fine."
"Let's go in first." Su Mengyan was afraid of seeing Zhao Hu's face immersed in sadness, so she left quickly.
When they went in, the miracle doctor was writing a prescription. Judging from his expression, Su Mengyan guessed that it shouldn't be particularly difficult.
"How is Qing'er?" Su Mengyan asked over.
Xiaoyaozi handed the prescription to Doctor Gu and said, "Pick the medicine according to the instructions. If other people have the same symptoms, they can also drink this."
"This isn't a relapse of his condition, don't worry." Xiaoyaozi wiped his hands clean. After the three of them walked outside to an open area, he slowly said, "It's still a problem with the prescription."
Doctor Gu scratched his head in shame, "It was my fault for neglecting it."
"But his symptoms last night were exactly the same as those of the plague. Is there really no other problem?" Doctor Gu's medical skills are not as good as Xiaoyaozi's, so naturally he can't see anything.
Xiaoyaozi glanced at him sideways and said with a smile, "You don't believe in my medical skills?"
"No, no, you're a renowned doctor with superb medical skills. I'm ashamed to be compared to you." Doctor Gu admired Xiaoyaozi very much. "It's just that Zhao Qing's symptoms are a little strange."
"There's nothing strange about it." Xiaoyaozi warned Su Mengyan, "You need to pay more attention these days. Others may also encounter similar situations."
"Thank you for your help, doctor. I will go and prepare the herbs right away." Doctor Gu had no reason to doubt and left quickly with the prescription.
"What are you looking at?" After Doctor Gu left, Xiaoyaozi saw Su Mengyan's surprised look.
Su Mengyan smiled and said, "I didn't expect the miracle doctor would be willing to help us."
"What? You think I'm a cold-blooded doctor who wouldn't save a dying person?" Xiaoyaozi sneered. "The request I made to your husband at the foot of the mountain was just a test. He was so arrogant back then that he didn't even bother asking for help."
Su Mengyan didn't expect that it was because of this. Everyone said that the genius doctor Xiaoyaozi had a weird personality, but in her opinion, he was just an old child.
"Doesn't the miracle doctor want to take in a disciple? What do you think of Doctor Gu?" Su Mengyan recommended an apprentice to him, not wanting his medical skills to be passed on to no one.
