"Your father is in the study. You may go there. I will ask the kitchen to prepare more dishes. As for Xiao Jin, please stay for dinner today," Madam Xing invited.
Su Ruojin calculated that the time was about right and nodded, "Then I'll have to trouble Madam Xing."
"Xiao Jin, since you are A Yue's friend, call me Aunt Xing."
“Okay, Aunt Xing.” Su Ruojin readily agreed.
Xing Yue pulled her towards the study, deliberately lowering her voice and acting mysteriously, "Xiao Jin, tell me quickly, why did you look for my father? Is there some secret matter you need to discuss?"
Su Ruojin was both amused and exasperated by her appearance.
"Didn't you say before that your father's leg was injured on the battlefield and has been hurting ever since? I came to take a look."
Xing Yue then remembered that Su Ruojin was very skilled in medicine. She leaned on Su Ruojin's shoulder and rubbed against her like a cat, saying, "Xiao Jin, I knew you were the best."
Su Ruojin pointed at Xing Yue's face with her finger with a look of "disdain" and pushed her away, "Don't mess up my clothes, or Yan Luo will start nagging me again."
Who would have thought that the seemingly cold and aloof eldest daughter of the Xing family would be like this in private?
The thought that this might be her future fifth sister-in-law made Su Ruojin's smile widen even more.
I and Mu Yao will eventually leave the Su family. With Xing Yue's personality, the Su family will be much more lively, and my mother should be happy.
General Xing was reading in his study when his daughter brought Su Ruojin in. He quickly stood up and bowed respectfully, "Greetings, Princess Chang Le."
"General Xing, there's no need for such formalities. I heard from A-Yue that you once injured your leg. I happen to know some medical skills; I wonder if I could take a look at it for you?"
Xing Yue had mentioned countless times to General Xing that Su Ruojin had saved the pregnant woman and child by performing a cesarean section. General Xing had also heard about what happened at the Jingzhao Yin Prefecture and knew that Su Ruojin was a skilled physician.
However, General Xing, who was not knowledgeable in medicine, had little idea of just how skilled Princess Chang Le was in medicine.
However, since a princess had taken the initiative to come to his door to treat him, how could General Xing refuse such a kind offer?
“I could not have asked for this, thank you, Princess. Princess, please.”
Su Ruojin took General Xing's pulse and understood the situation.
When Xing Qin walked towards her just now, she noticed that Xing Qin walked with a slight limp, but it wasn't particularly noticeable.
"General Xing must have been injured in the leg by a spear or arrow or something similar."
“Your Highness is absolutely right. Back when we were fighting against Bei Li, I faced off against Bei Li’s loyalist king, who was very skilled with a spear. It was my fault for being less skilled, and I was stabbed in the leg by his spear.” Xing Qin said, a look of shame on her face.
Xing Yue hurriedly said, "Father also blinded one of Qin Wang's eyes, so in all things considered, Father is still better."
"I'm talking to the princess, what right do you, a mere child, have to interrupt?" Xing Qin said, feigning anger.
Su Ruojin knew, of course, that Xing Yue was trying to comfort her father.
However, Xing Yue was not wrong. Compared to being stabbed in the leg, losing an eye was obviously a step ahead of Xing Qin.
"General Xing is too modest. Blinding the enemy commander in one eye on the battlefield will surely demoralize them greatly."
"That's right! If it weren't for that scoundrel Jia Dingjiang delaying the supply of provisions, we wouldn't have lost," Xing Yue said angrily from the side.
"Xing Yue! Don't talk nonsense in front of the princess." Xing Qin glared at his daughter.
Xing Yue stuck out her tongue, not daring to say anything more.
Although her father doted on her, when he called her by her full name, it meant he was truly angry.
She's not afraid of horse stance, but she doesn't want to do it all the time.
