Is he a male prostitute?
"I don't know your name yet, Doctor?" Fu Mingyue asked.
"My name is Su Yunwei, just call me Weiwei."
"Then you can call me Mingyue too." Fu Mingyue raised the corner of her mouth. She made a good friend today.
The two of them crossed the threshold, one after the other. Su Yunwei stood on the wet stone pavement. She looked up at the right moment. The doors of the several shops within her sight were all closed. The scent of incense still lingered at the tip of her nose.
Su Yunwei was puzzled. He looked around and confirmed that no shops were open. He asked, "Why does it smell like burning incense here?"
Fu Mingyue pointed to the towering spire in the distance and replied, "Look, that's Xiangguo Temple, that's why you smell the scent of burning incense."
"Temple?" Su Yunwei looked in the direction of her fingertips, and happened to hear the sound of a bell!
"Then what is this place? Why are there no shops open?" Su Yunwei asked.
Fu Mingyue blushed immediately and stammered, "Because... because... this is a brothel!"
Su Yunwei: “…”
I KAO! !
Then...that Ming Zhao is...a male prostitute!
She had lived for more than 20 years, and this was the first time she saw a male prostitute, and a good-looking one at that, so she was a little excited.
Seeing her silence, Fu Mingyue thought she was regretting saving Mingzhao, so she asked tentatively, "Are you regretting saving Mingzhao?"
"Of course not! In my eyes, there is no distinction between high and low professions." Su Yunwei was a little embarrassed and smiled awkwardly: "This is my first time here, and I'm a little excited and curious."
Su Yunwei's calm response made Fu Mingyue secretly curse herself for being mean-spirited and that she should not blaspheme the grace of saving her life.
She pushed Su Yunwei into the carriage and followed closely behind.
···
The carriage soon arrived at the Fu Mansion, and Su Yunwei got off the carriage with Fu Mingyue.
When the luxurious mansion came into view, Su Yunwei couldn't help but open her mouth wide.
This is a rich person’s house. Even if she earns money for hundreds of years in modern times, she still cannot afford to live in such a house.
With surprise and curiosity, Su Yunwei followed Fu Mingyue all the way into the Fu Mansion through the side door.
As soon as she entered the door, she met a girl with two buns, who hurriedly called Fu Mingyue "Miss".
"Miss! You're finally back!"
"How are things, Green Branch? My brothers and the others didn't notice I was gone, did they?"
Luzhi lowered her head and said nothing. Suddenly, another older figure appeared behind her.
"Second Miss! I have been waiting for you for a long time. The master and his mistress are waiting for you in the front hall." The old servant smiled and respectfully made a greeting gesture with his hand.
Su Yunwei saw Fu Mingyue standing there in a daze. She said she had sneaked out, but now it seems that she has been discovered.
It won’t implicate me.
"Weiwei, I may have to trouble you to come with me." Fu Mingyue turned her head and pleaded.
"Okay, I'm fine anyway." Su Yunwei took the medicine box from her and slung it over her shoulder. "Things will work out when the time comes." Let's move on.
····
Su Yunwei followed them through a long corridor, and then passed a path decorated with colorful flowers. Servants on the roadside were either hurried, or lowered their heads to sweep, or carrying things, and some even stayed in groups of three or five to chat. But when Fu Mingyue appeared, the servants seemed to have pressed the pause button, immediately stopping their work and gossip, bowing their heads and holding their breath, and respectfully called out in unison: "Hello, Second Miss!"
As for Fu Mingyue, she seemed to have become accustomed to all this. She just kept walking forward with her head held high.
Su Yunwei looked at Fu Mingyue's dress swaying in her haste, and the pain in her shoulder came again. She lifted the medicine box and tried to move the shoulder strap of the medicine box on her shoulder.
After walking for an unknown amount of time, Fu Mingyue finally stopped when he reached Su Yunwei, who could no longer remember the way they had come.
She turned around and saw Su Yunwei with drooping eyebrows, and immediately rushed in front of her.
"Weiwei, let's go in," he said as he was about to grab the medicine box.
"No, I can get it myself." Su Yun slightly turned sideways. It was better to keep a low profile when he was in someone else's territory.
Lvzhi, who was standing by, looked at the young lady in front of her, whispering softly to a girl dressed in strange clothes, and couldn't help but mutter in her heart: "Why does the young lady always make friends with such strange people? Ming Zhao is one, and this person is also one."
Su Yunwei and Fu Mingyue walked side by side. Before they stepped into the front hall, a deep and angry male voice came from inside.
"Look at your spoiled daughter! Her beloved brother just returned from the battlefield after a near-death experience, and yet she slipped away without a word. Slipping away would be fine, but she slipped away in broad daylight to a filthy place like Lushi Lane." The man angrily slammed the table, breathing heavily. "What is she trying to do? Is she trying to throw the whole family's reputation into the mud for others to trample on?"
"Oh, don't be angry! Don't be angry!" The noble lady in the purple dress was twisting a piece of brocade and gently stroking the angry man's chest.
"Maybe Mingyue went out for something urgent. Chang'an won't blame her."
"Right, Chang'an." The lady quickly glanced at Fu Chang'an, who was sitting at the side of the hall, and gestured for him to smooth things over.
I saw a man named Fu Chang'an twisting the jade cup with his fingers at the side of the hall and gently placing it to his lips. The tea in the cup was steaming and only the corners of his mouth could be seen raised. "Fu Mingyue? Come in quickly." After saying that, he drank the tea in one gulp.
The furious man and the noble lady are none other than the biological father and stepmother of Fu Mingyue and Fu Changan, Fu Li and Du Yinyin.
The two of them stared closely at the place where Fu Mingyue came in.
But they didn't expect that there was a girl with strange clothes following Fu Mingyue.
When the furious Fu Li saw Su Yunwei, he was so angry that he almost vomited blood. Who did his daughter take after? Why did she always make friends with such weird people?
He put his hands in a protective gesture to protect Du Yinyin beside him and asked in a deep voice, "Fu Mingyue! What weird things have you made again?"
"who is she?"
Su Yunwei stood there in a daze, turning a deaf ear to Fu Li's malicious words. At this moment, her eyes were only focused on Fu Changan who was sitting beside the hall.
It was the first time for her to come into such close contact with such a stunningly handsome guy.
Fu Changan noticed the fiery gaze and his eyes slowly fell on Su Yunwei. He had a flamboyant youthful air, but his eyes were like a calm lake, without any ripples.
"Father, she is the doctor I invited back to treat my grandmother, Su Yunwei."
Healing grandmother? Su Yunwei frowned. When did he promise Fu Mingyue to heal her grandmother? Why didn't he have any recollection of it?
"Her? To heal her mother." Fu Li looked at the girl in front of him. She was about the same age as his own daughter. Even the imperial doctors in the palace were unable to treat the disease. How could a girl like her, still wet behind the ears, heal her?
"Fu Mingyue, are you lying to me?"
"No, no, absolutely not." Fu Mingyue waved her hands hurriedly. "She can even cure Mingzhao's illness, so she can definitely cure grandma's illness."
When Ming Zhao was mentioned, Fu Li tilted his head to Du Yinyin and asked, "Who is Ming Zhao?"
Du Yinyin looked embarrassed and said "oh" but didn't say anything.
"Ming Zhao is a male prostitute in Lushi Lane."
Fu Changan's clear voice came from behind Fu Li. His face instantly turned red and he shouted angrily: "Fu Mingyue!!!"
The woman beside Su Yunwei shuddered, her head tilted, but she continued, "Father, I went to see Ming Zhao because he was seriously ill. Everyone around me said he was possessed by an evil spirit, or that a ghost had taken his body, but I don't believe it."
"My daughter went through so much trouble to find Weiwei. Weiwei is such a skilled doctor that she actually brought Mingzhao back from the brink of death."
"Even if your father doesn't trust his daughter, please trust Weiwei's medical skills."
Su Yun looked slightly surprised. Was she talking about herself? A skilled doctor? She was just an ordinary doctor. What she feared most was being flattered.
I must take off this tall hat later.
"Take her to see grandmother." Fu Changan stood up at some point and said anxiously.
"Chang'an, the identity of this woman is still unknown..." Fu Li was interrupted by Fu Chang'an before he could finish his words.
Fu Changan: "Father, grandmother's illness has dragged on for several months. These days, there have been a lot of medicines and doctors coming in and out of the mansion, but... there is no effect at all." He paused, glanced at Su Yunwei, who was dressed in strange clothes, and said firmly: "Give it a try, father!"
Fu Li glanced at Du Yinyin, then at Fu Mingyue. After a moment, he took a deep breath and said, "Let's give it a try."
"Let's go and take Doctor Su to Zhaohui Courtyard."
Su Yunwei: “…”
What’s going on?
How come he was pushed away?
Su Yunwei wanted to cry!!!
A group of people immediately turned towards Zhaohuiyuan.
The maid who was busy in the yard saw the person coming and hurried to inform the inner room.
"Madam Jinxiu, the master and his men are here."
Before she could get a response from inside, Su Yunwei was pushed into the house by a hand from behind.
Tsk. Su Yun frowned slightly and threw the medicine box on his shoulder to the ground. The heavy object fell to the ground with a loud noise.
She turned around and her eyes fell on the pair of hands that had been pushing her. Although they were a little dark, they were quite slender.
He is also very handsome.
Just when Su Yunwei was about to open her mouth to scold him, she saw the man opposite her giving her a gentle smile.
Su Yunwei: “…”
Beauty Trap!!!
She got hit again!
"Is Li'er here?" A soft and hoarse female voice came from behind a screen embroidered with butterflies circling peonies, interrupting Su Yunwei's thoughts.
Du Yinyin immediately put her arm around Su Yunwei's and said as she walked over, "Oh, mother, we've all come to see you."
Fu Mingyue followed behind her, and Fu Changan picked up the medicine box she had thrown on the ground. They walked around the screen and brought it to their grandmother.
“This girl is…”
Seeing her mother-in-law asking, Du Yinyin quickly replied, "Mother! This is the doctor Mingyue found specially for you. He said he can cure your illness."
Wang Yanhui, now over fifty, with her hair half-silver, was once the only daughter of Marquis Zhaowu, the predecessor of the Zhaojing Dynasty. After her father's death, her mother remarried! With her family in decline, she was forced to marry Fu Li's father, Fu Xiang, along with her father's three thousand former followers, who was later honored as the founding marquis of the Zhaojing Dynasty.
