Chapter 310 The real person and their alternate account are jealous of each other
It's reasonable to offer a benefit when asking Dr. Yan for a consultation, but Dr. Yan doesn't want any payment, which makes things a bit difficult.
"I will agree to any request you make that I can fulfill."
Lin Yuesha gritted her teeth. Based on her understanding of Doctor Yan, she knew that the other party wouldn't make excessive demands. If she did, she would ask Bai Youran to help her put in a good word.
She's not like Hearts; she's stubborn, determined to go down a path to the bitter end, refusing to compromise. In certain circumstances, she must learn to be accommodating in order to protect herself.
Lin Yuesha recalled that if she hadn't been able to be flexible and know how to read the room and flatter, she would have been dead by Blue Eyes long ago and wouldn't be alive now.
Difficulties are only temporary; there is hope only if you ensure your own safety.
"It's not a big request. The braised pork layered pancake you made last time tasted very good. If you have any new recipes in the future, let me try them first."
Without blushing or panting, Dr. Yan readily admitted that she was a foodie.
"It's nothing, no problem!"
Lin Yuesha agreed quite readily. Doctor Yan still had money with her, and even if the other party didn't mention it, she planned to send food to her from time to time.
Soy sauce and pork layered pancakes are relatively simple to make, but they can be improved later by using boneless pork that has been smoked and adding cilantro to make delicious pancake rolls.
Braised pork and smoked pork have different flavors. For Lin Yuesha, different cuts of pork require different cooking methods to ensure that the ingredients bring out their best qualities.
To ease the tension, Lin Yuesha became more talkative when the topic of food came up.
"Okay, let's get this straight: I'll go see a doctor, but I can't guarantee he'll survive."
According to Hongliu's description, the maid named Hongtao was barely clinging to life; if the group had arrived any later, they might have encountered a corpse.
Even a great immortal wouldn't return, let alone a mere physician like Doctor Yan.
"I know."
Lin Yuesha knew in her heart that the hope was slim, and she only hoped that Hongtao could leave in peace without any regrets.
Thinking about it, it's actually quite foolish to act this way. She is loyal to Big Beard, but what does Big Beard think? If Red Peach dies because of this, can Big Beard guarantee that he will never marry?
"cannot."
Hongliu was certain that men and women were different. Women who became widows young were often honored with chastity plaques, and their remarriages were met with gossip. But men were different; as long as they could make a living, they wouldn't become old widowers.
The atmosphere inside the carriage was somber.
Lin Yuesha seemed to be deep in thought. Back then, her mother thought her father was dead and remarried more than ten years later. But after Lin Mama came, she insulted her mother, Chen Shi, saying that she was a promiscuous woman.
Bah! Lin Shusheng faked his death for over ten years, married and had children in the capital. Does he expect Chen to stay with him for the rest of her life?
You're right.
After a long silence, Doctor Yan spoke coldly, "My fiancé is gone. I will remain a widow and never marry again in this life."
Lin Yuesha, upon learning the truth, advised, "But you've already arrived in the North; you don't need to be bound by traditional etiquette..."
“Sister Yue Sha, you’re mistaken. It’s not that I’m bound by social conventions. That family is very kind, and they all advised me to remarry, but I…”
Her fiancé died under mysterious circumstances, leaving Doctor Yan uneasy. The powerful families in the capital pretended not to know, allowing her fiancé to be murdered.
In this world, there are only the powerful and wealthy, not the truth.
"It's just ahead."
As they were talking, the carriage stopped at the entrance of an alley.
The alley was so narrow that only one person could pass at a time; carriages couldn't get through, so everyone had to get off and walk.
"Is that red silk?"
Lin Yuesha saw a maid standing in front of the door. Upon closer inspection, she recognized her. Hongchou and Hongtao had both been in Xuan Yao's courtyard before. Hongchou had been silent and had been working quietly.
If you're bringing out the Hearts, you should find someone who doesn't talk much, to avoid causing trouble by being too talkative.
Hongchou nodded to Lin Yuesha as a greeting.
"Red Silk, how's Red Heart?"
She rushed as fast as she could, and Hongliu had only an hour to get there. She was filled with anxiety, fearing that Hongtao would die during that time.
"Inside."
Hongchou pointed to the courtyard. Lin Yuesha entered first and found that the pockmarked face was in the courtyard.
Lin Yuesha clicked her tongue in amazement; Qingxing's speed was too fast!
"Brother Yun, have you received the news? Has that bearded man... no, Brother Bai arrived?"
A glimmer of hope appeared in Lin Yuesha's eyes. The pockmarked face had never disappointed her; it always appeared when she needed it.
"They're here."
Xiao Qi responded, and he dragged his subordinate out of bed, carried him to the alley, and threw him into the room.
He had just heard a commotion at the door. Because the white-clad figure was disheveled and had an unshaven beard, Hongtao assumed that the man had come for her and was very touched.
Women are so prone to being delusional; it's truly a beautiful misunderstanding.
"That's great! But how is Sister Red Heart?"
Lin Yuesha was slightly excited to see the pockmarked face, but she was still more concerned about Hongtao's condition.
"I'll go in and take a look."
The female doctor took the medicine box from Bai Cha's hands and frowned as she glanced at the pockmarked face.
As a doctor, she always felt that something was off about this face, but since the pockmarked face was familiar with Lin Yuesha, she couldn't say anything. She just wanted to find an opportunity to remind Lin Yuesha not to be deceived.
"You can wait outside first."
As soon as Dr. Yan entered the room, a moment later, the bearded man was also driven out of the room, looking disheveled.
Bai Ying felt bitter. She had been so busy lately that she hadn't slept for three days and three nights. Just when she finally got some rest, her master dragged her out and sent her to Hong Tao's side.
He approached Hongtao in the first place because of Lin Yuesha, but now Hongtao has refused to marry him and insists on marrying him, and he has no idea about it. Look at the way that little girl looks at him, as if he is a heartless scumbag.
Bai Ying secretly wiped away a tear, remembering the Lord's warning, and had no choice but to submit.
As long as Hongtao has a breath left, he has to play the part perfectly. If he shows even the slightest sign of being a heartless man, it will affect the relationship between the master's alias and the little girl.
The Lord doesn't want to have any estrangement with the little girl, or he'll have to sacrifice half his life! Waaah!
“Qingxing came to deliver a message to me, so I brought her here.”
Xiao Qi immediately offered an explanation when he saw that his younger sister had sweat on her forehead and red eyes.
"Brother Yun, thank you so much. I'm always causing you trouble."
This was originally a matter between Big Beard and Hearts, but because Big Beard couldn't be found, Lin Yuesha had to trouble Pockmarked Face.
The pockmarked man and the bearded man are friends, but the bearded man is not himself. It must have taken some effort to get someone to come over.
"Between you and me, there's no need for such polite words."
Xiao Qi felt uncomfortable listening to his own younger sister being so distant. He realized that he was acting strangely, that he was split in two, with his alternate identity and his real self arguing and being jealous of each other, constantly debating whether his stepbrother or the pockmarked man had a higher status.
Lin Yuesha felt a warmth in her heart. The pockmarked man's words showed he didn't mind her being a nuisance; he treated her like one of his own. But who exactly was this "one of his own"? She really wanted to know.
"Brother Yun, I'm not just being polite, you've really been very good to me."
Lin Yuesha blinked, feigning innocence, and asked, "Why are you so good to me?"
