"A doctor? Who told you my daughter is a doctor!" Qingdai sneered. "My daughter is neither in a clinic nor does she have a doctor's license. Stop trying to blackmail her with this nonsense. If she really wants treatment, she should hurry up this road and go find Elder Xue!"
Cai Die bit her lip, looking aggrieved. "I went to him, but he refused to treat my princess, and what's more, he said some very hurtful things..."
They said that anyone from the Prince of Yan's residence or a dog would be spared.
That's utter nonsense! He's just a wicked doctor who doesn't respect etiquette!
And then there's the eldest son of the Xiao family, a heartless and cold-blooded person. It's a shame that her princess was planning to look for him tonight.
But the princess was so ill that she stood in front of the wooden house for a long time, pleading for a long time, but the other party never showed his face. She didn't know if he was really not in the house or if he was avoiding her.
Qingdai completely lost her patience, clenching her fist and raising it, "If you don't leave, I'll say even harsher things, and my fists will be even more ugly!"
"You!!!" Cai Die stared at the fist that was just touching her nose and almost fell over in anger. The people around Su Hua were just like Su Hua, all of them stubborn and unyielding.
If it had been a couple of days ago, she would have definitely made Yan Yi and the others teach her a lesson.
But now that Yan Yi and the others have left, we can only swallow our anger for the time being and go to town to fetch a doctor.
Qingdai watched the figure stumble along the narrow path, a cold smile playing on her lips. When they were bullying others, they were all high and mighty, but now that they needed their young lady's help, they couldn't even give her a kind look. Did they really think their young lady was a pushover?
She stood at the door for a moment, pondered, and then leaped towards the old village chief's house.
Seeing that the old village chief and his wife looked normal and there were no snakes in or out of the house, he flew back to the end of the village.
In the backyard, after hearing what had happened, Su Hua frowned slightly. "A toothless snake? All snakes have teeth, the only difference is whether they are venomous or not, and how many teeth they have. Did Cai Die say what these snakes look like?"
Qingdai nodded, "They said they were all triangular-headed, as thick as hemp rope, half a person's length, and their scales were black and white."
Upon hearing this, Su Hua was taken aback. Wasn't this a viper?
More than two months ago, she went with Yu Feng to Fuhu Mountain to look for the Red Cloud Flower. The two viper kings she encountered on the cliff top were unforgettable. The scary snake in Cai Die's mouth was probably the little viper.
Shanghe Village is located near the mountains, so it's not uncommon for snakes to enter homes, but so many is a bit unusual.
The nest of baby vipers on the cliff top was dealt with by Yu Feng and Yu Yu, and it seems they were sent to another mountain. Could these suddenly appearing vipers be related to Zi Chen?
Qingdai lowered her eyes and saw the dark circles under the girl's eyes. She couldn't help but feel sorry for her and advised, "Miss, you should rest early. It will be dawn in two hours."
"Okay." Su Hua composed herself, smiled and nodded. "You should also go to sleep early; you've worked hard tonight."
"It's no trouble at all. It's my blessing to be with you, Miss." Qingdai shook her head and smiled, then blew out the oil lamp.
As soon as the dim yellow lights went out, the entire village fell into complete darkness, and the sounds of insects chirping and frogs croaking gradually faded into silence.
As dawn broke, the young man, dressed in a blue robe and short jacket, carrying a large bundle, walked out of the village. When he reached the narrow path, he turned back to look at the blue brick and tile houses. After a long while, he clenched his fists and strode away.
Walking until you reach a distance of about 30 feet from the village entrance, you'll see a figure in a deep purple standing under a crooked sycamore tree.
Su Sanhu paused, rubbing his eyes in disbelief, but the purplish-red figure before him did not disappear. Instead, he could clearly see the white mist between her brows and in front of her hair. "A-Zheng? What are you doing here?"
The girl turned around, smiled, and slowly opened her fist. "Here, this is for you."
Su Sanhu stared at the small black ceramic bottle in her palm, slightly taken aback. "What is this?"
“This one is Gu Bao’s number one general.” A Zheng raised her eyebrows, her beauty mark under her eye shimmering. “If you encounter a troublesome person on the battlefield, you can release it, and it can take someone away in one bite.”
"I can't accept such a precious Gu worm." Su Sanhu quickly waved his hand. He knew about Gu Baby, the king of Gu, which had once saved Qin Yucheng's life. Raising even a single Gu requires a lot of effort, let alone such a powerful Gu worm.
"Why are you, a grown man, babbling like a woman?" A-Zheng shoved the small ceramic bottle into his hand. When he tried to push it back, she took a step back. "Once I, A-Zheng, give something away, there's no reason to take it back. If you don't want it, just throw it away!"
“This…” Su Sanhu pursed his lips, the ceramic bottle in his palm still seemed to retain warmth, burning hot.
"Thank you, Azheng."
"Why thank me?" the girl chuckled. "If anything were to happen to you, Xiao Hua'er and Auntie would be heartbroken. I just don't want Xiao Hua'er and Auntie to be sad."
"Hurry up, the carriage is waiting for you at the village entrance."
Having said that, he turned and headed towards the mountain path.
"Ah Zheng!" Su Sanhu looked up at the purple figure and called out, "I've heard that Beiming's wine is very famous. When I come back, I'll definitely bring you a few jars of the finest wine, and we'll have a good drink together."
"Okay, I've got it." The girl paused slightly, but didn't turn around. She simply raised her hand and waved, her wide purple sleeves billowing in the air in a beautiful arc, like a cool mountain breeze.
The sound of horses' hooves rose and then faded, gradually disappearing along the path with the mountain breeze.
Su Hua got up early on purpose, but unexpectedly found no one there. "Qingdai, when did Third Brother leave?"
Qingdai pursed her lips. "Before dawn, the Third Young Master told us not to wake you, saying that everyone had worked hard last night and that everyone should get a good night's sleep. There's already a carriage arranged by the Master at the village entrance, so you don't need to worry, Miss."
