Chapter 51: Repaying a Favor
There was no one else around, so Jiang Qingyue could only ask her for directions.
But just as he raised his foot and before he could say anything, the girl's face suddenly changed and she turned around to run away.
But she didn't know how to run, her shoe stepped on the hem of her skirt, and she fell right in front of Jiang Qingyue.
Jiang Qingyue hurriedly helped the person up and was about to check her injuries, but she dodged three meters away.
Her movements were too intense, as if she was deliberately avoiding it.
Jiang Qingyue was stunned for a moment, and then pulled her hand over.
Xie Shuyan's face was full of anger, but she kept pursing her lips and remained silent.
Jiang Qingyue looked at her without blinking, and spoke before she got angry.
"You can't speak?"
There was some panic in Xie Shuyan's eyes. She shook off Jiang Qingyue and tried to run.
Jiang Qingyue finally found someone to ask for directions, so how could she let her get away?
"Perhaps I can cure your muteness."
Sure enough, Xie Shuyan paused, but after a moment, she continued to run forward.
Hey, you can run pretty fast.
However, at this moment Jiang Qingyue understood why she was lost.
I also understood the old lady's intention.
Yin Yao deliberately pointed me in the wrong direction in order to lead me here and cure the little girl's muteness.
This little girl was dressed elegantly and was in the backyard. She must have a close relationship with the Marquis' Mansion.
Jiang Qingyue's eyes turned and lit up instantly.
So...
Could the Xuanping Marquis Mansion owe her another favor?
If she accepts this little girl's order, she can't run away!
Jiang Qingyue quickly took two steps forward and said with a smile, "You've been mute for about three years, right? Also, your muteness didn't come on suddenly, did it?"
"When you first became mute, you were delirious and your speech was incoherent. You felt like you were disturbed by internal heat. For nearly two weeks, you were weak and bedridden."
"Gradually, you have trouble speaking, and you stop talking when you see people. As time goes by, you can no longer speak."
Only after the last word was spoken did Xie Shuyan turn around.
There was some surprise in her eyes as she looked Jiang Qingyue up and down.
Over the years, the Xuanping Marquis Mansion protected her very well. Everyone in Yanjing City only knew that she was recuperating outside, but they didn't know that she was mute.
The Marquis' Mansion searched for famous doctors all over the world, but never announced her identity to the public.
How did the person in front of her know her illness when he hadn't even diagnosed her?
Jiang Qingyue introduced herself, but did not say that she was the daughter of the Minister of Revenue Jiang Shouye, nor did she say that she was related to He Peilan. She only said that she came to see the Marquis's wife.
A hint of understanding flashed in Xie Shuyan's eyes.
It turns out that she is the miracle doctor who saved her mother?
But she looks very young, not much older than me. Can she cure me?
Seeing the little girl let down her guard, Jiang Qingyue said softly, "I can't find the way out of the house. If you don't mind, could you show me the way?"
Xie Shuyan bit her lip and raised her hand to point in a certain direction.
Jiang Qingyue raised her hand to express her gratitude.
While Xie Shuyan was stunned, he suddenly moved as fast as the wind and gave her two injections.
Shu Yan's body was stiff, her eyes wide open.
She...she...why did she start giving the acupuncture without saying anything?
How could it be cured so suddenly?
She hasn't agreed yet!
"Your illness originally stemmed from excessive heart fire, which then turned into weakness. If you had found a good doctor at the time, it wouldn't have become so serious."
Jiang Qingyue's slender fingers gently stroked the needle, "But you're worried too much, so you don't speak to people."
Every word Jiang Qingyue said was indeed the reason why Xie Shuyan was unwilling to speak.
After putting away the needle, Jiang Qingyue said something out of the blue.
"Muteness is easy to cure, but mental illness is hard to cure. We only have one life to live, so there are some things that we don't need to dwell on too much. It's better to take it easy."
Xie Shuyan's deer-like eyes suddenly widened and she stared at Jiang Qingyue with vigilance.
What does she...what does she know?
Jiang Qingyue was about to leave when she heard footsteps. She looked up and her brows suddenly frowned.
It’s Xie Lingyun.
Xie Lingyun came to Shu Yan, who was standing stiffly, with a worried and nervous look on his face.
Jiang Qingyue looked at her nose with her eyes, then at her mouth with her nose, then she lowered her eyes to look at her feet and the stone slabs beneath her feet.
This cautious look, this gentle expression...
Could this girl be Xie Lingyun’s sweetheart?
Just as she was thinking this, Xie Lingyun's sharp gaze suddenly fell on her.
Jiang Qingyue's heart skipped a beat.
What's the matter?
Do you think you're an eyesore?
Xie Lingyun took a step forward, passed Jiang Qingyue, and came to Xie Shuyan. He reached out and stroked Xie Shuyan's head. "Be good, go wait for me over there. I have something to talk to this sister."
Xie Shuyan glanced between the two of them for a few seconds, nodded obediently, and walked forward.
After everyone left, Xie Lingyun turned around and glanced at Jiang Qingyue with a sharp look.
"You just said that her oral illness was caused by a heart disease?"
Jiang Qingyue half-lowered her eyes and said calmly, "Your Highness, why don't you go and ask this girl yourself?"
She bowed slightly, turned around and pretended to leave.
But who knew that Xie Lingyun actually grabbed her wrist and pulled her back to him.
Jiang Qingyue was startled.
I raised my eyes, and as luck would have it, my eyes met his deep, dark eyes.
Her heart tightened.
Xie Lingyun had already lost his patience, and his tone gave people an inexplicable sense of oppression.
"If she could speak, would I need to ask you?"
Jiang Qingyue raised her eyes suddenly, "My cousin, Qingyue is just a doctor. I don't have the ability to see into other people's minds."
She shook off Xie Lingyun's hand, turned around and walked away quickly.
Xie Lingyun's eyes darkened, and he seemed to feel that his attitude was too much.
He started chasing her, but after only three or two steps, he blocked her path and slowed down his tone.
"How can her heart disease be cured? Can you explain it more clearly?"
"I've made it very clear: muteness is easy to cure, but mental illness is difficult to heal.
As long as the prince spends more time with her and finds two good doctors for her, I believe this girl's illness will get better soon.
It doesn’t necessarily have to be me.”
This is what it means to not want to be treated.
Xie Lingyun's suppressed temper rose again.
Sure enough, he was right to stop his mother from telling Jiang Qingyue about his sister's identity. She only wanted to curry favor with the powerful and would start to take advantage of others when she got the chance.
Once you get entangled with her, it will be a trouble.
Xie Lingyun lowered his eyebrows and said in a deep voice, "What are the conditions? Tell me."
Jiang Qingyue likes to talk to smart people. She studied medicine not to distract herself for no reason.
A transaction in which money is exchanged for goods is very fair.
Jiang Qingyue raised her head and met Xie Lingyun's deep black eyes. "This girl... must be very important to the prince. Then, is it not too much to ask my cousin for three wishes?"
"Don't worry, I won't let my cousin kill anyone or do anything immoral."
Xie Lingyun looked at her with a serious look.
