After Qiu Yan thanked them and calculated the cost of the medicine, she went to the Xie residence as quickly as possible.
Ling Ba remained completely invisible throughout, and indeed, he couldn't offer any real help regarding the medical matters.
I could only manage to be an assistant, if I had to.
After all the tools and medicines were ready, Qiu Yan and her companion met up with Ling Qi.
When they returned to the Xie residence, it was nearly noon.
Little did they know, at this moment, at the gate of the Xie residence,
The oppressive atmosphere of the past has disappeared, replaced by a joyful one.
Qin Susu was surrounded by a crowd of people, like a star being fawned over. She was encircled by the two constables and a gatekeeper.
The four chatted and laughed, thoroughly enjoying their conversation.
Prefect Xie stood at a distance in the courtyard, gazing outwards, constantly watching for Qiu Yan's figure.
Is this what they call "no discord, no concord"? Qiu Yan thought to herself, Qin Susu's naturally outgoing personality is just so good.
Wherever she is, there is never a dull moment.
Ling Qi chuckled: "What are they talking about?"
Do they have common topics to talk about?
Ling Ba watched from afar, and couldn't help but twitch his lips slightly.
"..."
"Miss Qin, are you married yet? What do you think of me?" The official was extremely forgetful. Because of Qin Susu's beauty, he completely forgot the trouble he had suffered at her hands.
Qin Susu clicked her tongue and grinned, "I already have several children, how could I not be married?"
Her words drew a wave of confusion from the three of them.
The officer chuckled awkwardly, "I really couldn't tell."
The second officer nodded in agreement; he couldn't tell either.
"Is Doctor Qiu married yet?"
"No, but our Xiaoyan is already engaged." Qin Susu smiled happily, imagining Qiu Yan and Gu Qian together.
She murmured to herself,
"A match made in heaven!"
"Miss Qin, who are you talking about?" the gatekeeper asked.
Upon hearing this, the official laughed heartily: "Of course it's Miss Qin and her husband."
Officer 2: "It seems Miss Qin is missing her man."
The security guard, being rather unkind, chuckled, "Miss Qin is so capable, I wonder if she's gentle with her husband?"
However, Qin Susu was already lost in her own thoughts and didn't hear the three people teasing her at all.
The longer she spent with Qiu Yan, the more she realized that Qiu Yan exuded a kind of magic.
It's puzzling and unpredictable.
Then, her attention turned to Gu Xiaoran.
"Our Xiaoyan is only sixteen years old, how could she have given birth to a five-year-old child?"
She felt sorry for what she had said before, that Xiaoyan was a mistress.
"What child? Who are you? Miss Qiu has a five-year-old child. How old is she?" the second officer asked curiously.
The security guard chuckled. "Miss Qin is just joking."
"What are you joking about? What did I say?" Qin Susu looked at the three men with a puzzled expression, causing them to exchange glances before bursting into laughter.
As soon as the officer saw that Qin Susu had regained her senses, he asked again, "Miss Qin, where are you and Miss Qiu from?"
Qin Susu's eyes flickered: "East...we came from Qidu."
The gatekeeper saw Qiu Yan and her two companions approaching from afar and asked:
"Can your miracle-healing sister really cure our young master's illness?"
Qin Susu shook her head: "Didn't Xiaoyan say that she only has a 10% chance of success?"
Xiaoyan didn't dare to speak too confidently, and she certainly didn't dare to say anything reckless.
The reason she boasted to Prefect Xie about Qiu Yan's thousand-gold consultation fee was entirely to... ask for more consultation fees.
