Chapter 457 Don’t Want Xiao Lingtian
The old man looked at Boss Bai, but he didn't continue talking. It wasn't nice for outsiders to talk about such things.
Boss Bai sighed, "My wife only gave birth to this one son, and she's the only one I love, so... it would be best if he can be cured. But if he can't, that's fine too. The inheritance I leave behind is enough to support him for the rest of his life."
Su Nuan didn't expect that Boss Bai was such a lovelorn man. She consoled him, "It can be cured. I'm just curious about when you've been to a stagnant pond, a dirty one."
Boss Bai shook his head, "No, it's impossible that we have ever been to that kind of place."
Su Nuan knew that it was useless to ask, as she would never find the reason unless she went to the Bai family.
She said, "Forget it, let's not talk about this for now. Take these herbs and boil them into a medicinal soup. He needs to soak it for 25 minutes after the treatment."
After saying that, she took out the box given by Boss Bai and picked up some insect-like medicinal herbs.
Boss Bai reached out and took it. "I'll go, I'll go."
Su Nuan nodded and waved, "Go to the guest room."
Yang Yue led the way and they came to the guest rooms. The rooms here were very clean and fully equipped.
Su Nuan drove the people out of the room, went back and knocked Young Master Bai unconscious, stripped off his outer clothes and started acupuncture.
After the acupuncture was over, Young Master Bai began to vomit, spitting out a lot of black water and some tiny insects.
These tiny bugs died after wriggling a few times in the turbid liquid, but it was still scary to watch.
The people waiting outside the door were very anxious, but they didn't dare to knock on the door for fear of disturbing Su Nuan's treatment.
Su Nuan went to open the door and said, "Okay, but make sure to soak it for a full quarter of an hour, until the wound on his neck stops crawling with bugs."
Boss Bai bowed deeply and then ran into the house.
Su Nuan looked at Yang Yue and said, "I want to take a shower and change clothes."
Yang Yue immediately said, "Come with me to my room."
Su Nuan nodded and looked at Xiao Lingtian, "You... forget it, you can decide your own affairs."
The woman who came to see Xiao Lingtian was not there. Although Su Nuan wanted to eat melons, she had to rely on the other party to be willing to talk about it.
The old man said, "Mr. Xiao hasn't eaten yet, why don't you eat first?"
Xiao Lingtian nodded and said to Su Nuan, "I'll wait for you."
Su Nuan nodded, "Okay, I'll go wash up first."
Half an hour later, Su Nuan changed into a moonlight brocade long dress, which looked much more simple and elegant.
If it weren't for the need to maintain her swagger, Su Nuan would have simply wanted to change back into her fine cotton outfit.
Her outfit was a bit plain, so in order to show off, Su Nuan wanted to find a cool belt, but she hadn't paid much attention to her appearance before, so she didn't have any nice belt.
Seeing Su Nuan in a daze, the space spirit asked, "What's wrong? Aren't you going out?"
Su Nuan turned around and said, "The skirt feels like it's missing something without a belt. I should have gotten some more exaggerated accessories."
The Space Spirit said, "That's easy."
After saying that, Su Nuan felt a tightness around her waist. She looked down and saw a small golden snake looking at her blankly.
"Ah? You took it out and used it as a belt?"
The space spirit said, "Yes, it's so cool. Look at the golden scales and the flashes of light. Its head looks like a dragon, but it's not a dragon, so it won't violate any taboos."
"The main thing is that they're alive. They look so majestic when they're alive. If someone dares to bully you, just throw your belt at them and bite them to death."
Su Nuan laughed dryly twice without even asking the snake in question whether it agreed or not. Is this really a good idea?
I thought the little snake would refuse, but it bit its tail and obediently served as a belt.
Su Nuan touched the little snake's cold scales and said, "Thank you."
The little snake blinked in response, then closed its eyes and remained motionless.
Su Nuan walked out and saw Yang Yue waiting outside.
Yang Yue smiled and said, "There are a lot of worms coming out of Young Master Bai's body. The court doctor checked and said that those worms can only be found in stagnant water."
"If someone accidentally drinks water containing worm eggs, the eggs will hatch in the body and then eat away at the body. When the worms lay eggs in the brain, the person will go mad and die."
Su Nuan nodded. "That's right, that's why I find it strange. The Bai family is so rich, they wouldn't let a child fall into sewage, right?"
Yang Yue frowned and replied, "That means someone deliberately gave him dirty water containing insect eggs."
Su Nuan thought this was possible, but who could this person be? There was no dispute over wives and concubines in the Bai family, so who had the greater motive?
Yang Yue was also thinking in distress, but unfortunately, outsiders like them could not guess at all.
A maid came over and said, "Miss, Boss Bai is waiting for Miss Su outside."
Su Nuan pulled Yang Yue and said, "Come on, let's go ask. We can't figure it out even if we rack our brains."
Yang Yue was also a curious baby, and immediately followed Su Nuan out.
When they arrived at the gate of the yard, Boss Bai knelt down in front of Su Nuan with a smile on his face.
Su Nuan quickly helped him up, "Boss Bai, don't be like this, it's just a small favor."
Boss Bai sighed, "I owe Miss Su my life, but I cannot express my gratitude for your kindness."
Su Nuan waved her hand and said, "You keep your life. I don't want it. If you feel you owe me a favor, then please help Brother Tian do what he wants."
Boss Bai nodded, "Okay."
Su Nuan felt relieved when she saw that he had no objection to helping Xiao Lingtian. Although she didn't know how big a thing Xiao Lingtian was going to do, it was better to have more friends than more enemies.
She looked at the sky and asked, "The sun is about to set. Is there anything fun to do here?"
Boss Bai said, "There will be an auction tonight. If you are interested, you can go and have a look."
Su Nuan nodded. Xiao Lingtian had mentioned an auction, but when was it? She had forgotten.
Yang Yue asked doubtfully, "Auction? Tonight?"
Boss Bai smiled and said, "Originally it wasn't scheduled for today, but two of the merchants suddenly had to leave early, so the auction started early."
“Not only do we have to open early, but we also have to sell three days’ worth of goods tonight.”
Su Nuan nodded, "Then let's go to the auction. What are the conditions?"
Boss Bai said, "Our Bai family got three tickets. I can take you there."
Su Nuan didn’t know whether Xiao Lingtian would go. Maybe he had another way to get in.
Just as he was thinking about it, Xiao Lingtian came over and said apologetically, "I have something to do tonight and can't accompany you."
Su Nuan nodded, "Okay, go do your thing, I have someone to accompany me."
Xiao Lingtian sighed and turned away reluctantly.
Yang Yue frowned and said, "Sister, what is your relationship?"
Su Nuan hesitated for a moment and said, "We are very good friends."
She didn't dare say that she was Xiao Lingtian's fiancée, because when she brought it up, he didn't say anything.
If I speak carelessly, it might cause him trouble.
Yang Yue frowned and said, "I think he dotes on you. He probably wanted to pursue you, but as soon as that woman appeared, he ran off with her. Why don't you consider my brother instead of Xiao Lingtian?"
