Chapter 284: Treat Everyone Equally
The woman's words of explanation were completely blocked by the scolding.
She opened her mouth, and her eyes turned red when she thought of the contemptuous word "thing".
"Why are you crying?" Zhuang Shihan glared at her unhappily, and angrily said, "Hold it back. Tears are the most useless thing.
If crying could solve the problem, why would the people in this city take medicine? They should just sit there and shed tears with you!"
Doctor Li was so angry that his beard stood on end. He glared and said, "In my entire life, I have never seen a woman as arrogant and self-righteous as you!"
Hearing this familiar beginning, Zhuang Shihan said in surprise before he could finish his lecture, "Ah! If that's the case, then you've lived all these years in vain."
She didn't care how angry Doctor Li would be, and continued to speak: "As a person, ignorance is not scary. What is scary is being ignorant and not knowing it. Do you think I am right?"
"You!" Doctor Li was about to retort when he saw Song Yanxi lift a corner of the curtain and come out.
Several people immediately ignored Zhuang Shihan and surrounded her, their eyes filled with anxiety.
Xi Lin couldn't wait to ask, "How are the mother and son?"
Song Yanxi said, "Mother and child are both fine. However, with such a serious injury, she's likely going to suffer after the effects of the medicine wear off."
Hearing this, the woman's heart relaxed instantly, and she cried with joy, "It's okay. As long as both mother and child are well, she will definitely be willing to endure some hardships."
Zhuang Shihan snorted coldly, "You really don't know the pain unless the knife is stabbed into your own body. It's not your child, but you are willing to do it for someone else."
She wanted to say something, but Xi Lin glared at her and said, "If you don't want your mouth closed, I don't mind sewing it up for you!"
Zhuang Shihan spread her hands and said nonchalantly, "Go ahead if you dare."
Her fearless attitude clearly showed that she knew that they needed her help and did not dare to break up with her.
Yes, Xi Lin may not know anything, but it is possible that he will do what he says.
But he is not afraid, because there are always people who are afraid.
Xi Lin rolled up his sleeves and was about to step forward to take action, but Song Yanxi stopped him.
He turned around and looked at her, his peach blossom eyes filled with anger and disbelief, as if saying, "You actually spoke for her."
Zhuang Shihan couldn't help but chuckle and said sarcastically, "It's rare for the dignified Princess Yong'an to be so sensible."
Listening to her sarcastic words, Song Yanxi was not annoyed at all. She just looked at Xi Lin and said, "The princess is eloquent, which is a good thing. How can you use such a rude method as sewing a needle and thread to seal her mouth to treat a weak woman?"
Upon hearing this, Xi Lin couldn't help but burst out laughing.
It's not because I'm angry, but simply because I can't hold it in when I think about what will happen next.
Based on his understanding of Song Yanxi, what she just said could definitely not be anything good.
No wonder An Yi secretly told him that he felt his master and his future mistress had very compatible temperaments and personalities, and were a perfect match made in heaven.
Even the two yin and yang sentences before the curse give people a long-lost sense of familiarity.
The two of them can't make anything good.
This is more than just a good match.
It’s a perfect match!
Zhuang Shihan also had a vague feeling that Song Yanxi's words were full of hidden meanings. Sure enough, the next moment she heard her coldly say, "We should just use a packet of medicine to poison her and silence her, so that she won't open her mouth and pollute everyone's ears for nothing."
"Song Yanxi!"
"Why are you shouting? I'm not deaf."
Facing those furious eyes, Song Yanxi asked seriously, "Does Princess Shihan understand what people are saying?"
Zhuang Shihan's face darkened even more. "What do you mean?"
Song Yanxi: "Literally."
After she finished speaking, she thought of something and added, "It's normal that the princess doesn't understand."
Zhuang Shihan frowned, with fire in her eyes, "Are you mocking me for being stupid?"
Song Yanxi didn't respond. She looked at the woman with red eyes beside her and asked gently, "How did Madam Luo know that the woman was carrying a godson and not a daughter?"
Zhuang Shihan snorted coldly, her eyes almost rolling up to the sky.
Why else? It’s typical preference for boys over girls!
Seeing her lips moving slightly, clearly about to say something, Xi Lin asked coldly, "Are you so afraid of others finishing their words?"
"Afraid?" Zhuang Shihan laughed angrily, looking at Mrs. Luo with disdain, and said almost as if giving alms, "Go on."
She wanted to see what she could come up with.
It was nothing more than a lame excuse to try to prove to her that she was not biased towards boys and treated men and women equally.
She had heard these words at least eight hundred times before, and whenever she heard them, her heart would turn to one side.
What's the point of just talking? She is not blind, she has eyes and can see.
Furious at her contemptuous attitude, Mrs. Luo took a deep breath before finding her voice and said, "The girl in the room told me herself that Doctor Liu took her pulse during his free clinic and said she was pregnant with a son."
Zhuang Shihan sneered, clearly showing her disbelief.
Have you ever seen a murderer who would voluntarily admit to killing someone after the fact?
Mrs. Luo was irritated by this slight sneer. She immediately looked at her and asked angrily, "How unhappy is your life, Princess, that you are so malicious and speculative about others all day long?"
Zhuang Shihan raised an eyebrow, "Then why are you so anxious?"
"I..." Mrs. Luo wanted to explain, but she heard a loud baby cry from inside the house.
Seeing the anxiety in her eyes, Song Yanxi said, "Madam, please go in and see the child first."
Mrs. Luo nodded quickly. She walked to the door and remembered something. She looked at Doctor Li and said, "Please ask Elder Li to go out and ask whose sheep has recently given birth to a lamb. I want to ask for a bowl of milk for this child."
Doctor Li slapped his thigh and said in frustration, "Look at my memory! How could I have forgotten such an important thing?"
He called out to Xi Lin, "Doctor Xi, you are very nimble. Come with me quickly. There is a lamb in the house next door that is still nursing.
It’s so cold, I need to give the child something hot to drink right away.”
Seeing that Xi Lin was just staring at Zhuang Shihan, as if he didn't hear him, Doctor Li stamped his feet anxiously, walked forward, grabbed him and walked out.
As he walked, he said, "Didn't you hear the little cub crying like a cat when it was first born? You can tell he's weak without even looking at him. We can't deny him a bite to eat or drink."
He didn't say anything more unpleasant, but as Xi Lin was also a doctor, he naturally understood the seriousness of the situation.
He was just a little worried about Song Yanxi.
He had just returned from outside the city after a day of riding a horse, and without even having time to drink a sip of water, he hurried to treat the illness and save people.
The eyes behind the veil were filled with fatigue.
Even a person of iron could not bear such continuous work, let alone she was just a weak woman.
Song Yanxi was worried about the mother and son in the house. Just as she was about to turn around and go back into the house, she caught a glimpse of Zhuang Shihan staring at her quietly out of the corner of her eye.
She frowned and asked, "What's wrong?"
Zhuang Shihan's face was gloomy, and she asked coldly, "How do you two know each other?"
