Chapter 438 Who to Choose
The two of them were in perfect harmony with each other. Hu Xin'er was able to convey countless emotions with just one gesture and successfully calmed Mu Qing's emotions.
However, as his mood gradually calmed down, it was impossible for him to remain silent under Yin Li's arrogant demonstration.
Yin Li's attempt to sow discord between him and his brother touched his sore spot.
He looked at Yin Li coldly: "There is no room for a third person between Xin'er and me from the beginning to the end. Even if you want to be a third party, you are not qualified."
He paused, then continued, "Pavilion Master Yin has no parents or siblings, but after reading so many books, he should understand that sowing discord between others and their relatives is an extremely shameless and despicable act!"
The words "no parents, brothers" hurt Yin Li and made him feel extremely uncomfortable.
This mixed feeling made him silent for a while.
But precisely because she was provoked, Yin Li was willing to go all out today. She unexpectedly broke with her usual hypocritical attitude and asked confidently, "What's wrong with the third party? Can't I just wait for an opportunity to cheat?"
Jiang Yao held her forehead in her hand upon seeing this: "A third party who has never been loved by anyone can't even be considered a third party; it can only be considered an admirer."
Yin Li jumped up and down: "No matter what, this chance to start over was clearly something I asked for. If I hadn't sacrificed my life in my previous life, would Hu Xin'er have had the chance to travel through time? It's clearly you, Mu Qing, who stole my marriage!"
Seeing that she was being dragged into the conversation again, Hu Xin'er said stubbornly, "Stop arguing. Feudal superstition is not acceptable. Maybe that little monk was just making it up."
Mu Qing nodded in agreement: "My lady is right."
But when he lowered his head and looked at Hu Xin'er in his arms, his eyes were clearly full of resentment.
Hu Xin'er suddenly felt a great deal of pressure: "Well, that..."
Jiang Yao agreed, "You really don't have to take what the monk said seriously, but you should be wary of Xin'er's romantic affairs."
"When you were looking for Hu Xin'er's whereabouts, you kept calling her Master, but when it comes to the fate in your previous life, you turned your back on me?" Yin Yinli pointed out the truth very bluntly.
Then he turned to Jiang Yao and said coldly, "You married a Taoist priest yourself, how dare you accuse others of being feudal and superstitious? Could it be that in your eyes, Taoist Yiqing is just a fraud?"
In a word, both of them were completely offended.
Jiang Yao couldn't bear their hesitation and asked directly, "Xin'er, tell me, who do you choose?"
Is this question still necessary?
Hu Xin'er blurted out: "Of course I choose Mu Qing!"
After she said that, she looked at Yin Li awkwardly: "I'm sorry, although you have saved me many times, feelings can't be forced."
Although Yin Li had known this result a long time ago, he couldn't help feeling upset when he heard with his own ears that Hu Xin'er didn't choose him.
He pretended to be nonchalant as usual: "Isn't it just a casual talk? Look how nervous you are?"
After saying this, he walked away.
No one stopped him, giving him some quiet space.
Before leaving, Yin Li saw that no one reacted, so he slammed the door and muttered, "What's the big deal? I'll find ten or eight beauties after I get out!"
Hu Xiner was so embarrassed by her husband's resentment and the meaningful looks of others that she wanted to dig out the Mausoleum of Qin Shi Huang from under the bed.
At this moment, her stomach started to growl.
Today's breakfast and lunch were brought to her by the little monk. She didn't eat much because she had a fever.
She was just nervous about the bickering between the others, so she didn't notice it herself. Now that she relaxed a little, she just felt hungry and unbearable.
Mu Qing tucked the quilt in for her and asked gently, "Are you hungry?"
Hu Xiner nodded embarrassedly.
Eating is the top priority, so Mu Qing immediately went to the little monk to ask for vegetarian food.
It was just a pity for Hu Xiner. She was wrapped in the quilt, facing Jiang Yao's indifferent gaze, and she felt shivering.
"Why are you so nervous?" Jiang Yao suddenly asked.
Hu Xiner was in tears. Wasn't she worried that Jiang Yao would ask her about her peach blossom?
Alas, she never expected that such an ordinary woman like her would face such troubles!
Since Jiang Yao didn't ask directly, she didn't want to speak up, so she stuttered, "Mom's illness is more important right now. I'm thinking about what to do after I get out."
There are three ways to cure Lu's mother's illness now. One is to go back to find Old Man Dou, the second is to ask for help from the little monk, and the third is to find a famous doctor on the way back to the small mountain village in order to save Lu's mother.
When Jiang Yao heard that it concerned her sister, she gave up the idea of watching the show.
Everyone started discussing it.
If we go back to find Old Man Dou, he has the best chance of curing Mother Lu, and everyone is familiar with him, so it won't take much effort to ask him for help.
However, the whereabouts of the person the prince is chasing is still unknown. With his extreme temper, he probably won't let the Lu family and the blank imperial edict go easily.
Although no one knows how many hidden forces he has, it is certain that he must have many spies near the capital, and the Lu family will inevitably be exposed and hunted down.
Mother Lu can't stand watching such bloody and intense scenes the most. If a situation like today occurs during a fight, her condition will most likely not only not get better, but will get worse.
Having said that, the first idea was rejected by everyone.
Jiang Yao disagreed, "The capital is a gathering place for talented people. Even so, the doctors who can treat my sister's illness are rare."
She had always been guarding the Lu family, so how could she not know her sister's illness? Over the years, she had been persistently looking for famous doctors for her sister, but those people were helpless against Lu's mother's illness.
Hu Xiner knew that Mother Lu's illness probably needed to be treated by a professional psychologist, but in this era, there were very few doctors specializing in this area, and it was even rarer to find one who could treat a serious illness like Mother Lu's.
But she still held onto a glimmer of hope and said hesitantly, "Don't they say that masters are found among the common people? I also found my godfather by chance among the common people."
What's more, they have Yin Li here, so they should be able to see if there is a suitable doctor in each place they go.
Jiang Yao shook her head and said pointedly, "You were lucky to find Old Man Dou before. Most of those masters hiding among the people have eccentric personalities. Even if we find them, can we really be sure of convincing them? My sister's life cannot be tied to such a slim hope."
After discussing for a long time, everyone decided to pester the little monk to ask about Lu's mother's situation before making a decision.
