The moment the Saintess stepped in, she felt that she might have chanced upon something big.
However, she did not guess how big the matter could be.
She followed the sound of breathing into the room. When she saw the man’s face clearly, she was stunned!
One afternoon, Su Xiaoxiao played in the small garden with the three little
ones.
The butterflies in the Southern Wilderness were big and beautiful.
The three little ones ran around the courtyard to catch butterflies.
Su Xiaoxiao lay on a rattan chair under the shade of the tree with a book covering her face. She was relaxed and content.
Suddenly, Uncle Quan walked over and said to her, “Little Miss, Saintess Yin is here.”
“Oh?” Su Xiaoxiao took off the book covering her face. “Yin Xiaodie? Please!” Half an hour later, Uncle Quan invited Yin Xiaodie to the small garden. Yin Xiaodie was wearing the clothes of the Saintess. She was small, but she looked very dignified.
Recently, she had been learning the rules in the Holy Maiden Temple. Sometimes, it was the Saintess who taught her, and sometimes, it was the elders who taught her.
She was very humble, so she was very busy. She only found time today.
“Cheng Su!”
She greeted her in high spirits.
Su Xiaoxiao smiled and pinched her face.
Yin Xiaodie’s face darkened. “I’m the Saintess, yet you’re pinching my face!”
At this moment, the three little ones walked over.
“Mother, who is she?” Xiaohu asked.
Su Xiaoxiao wiped their sweat and said warmly, “Saintess Yin, you can call her Sister Yin.’
The three of them were especially obedient. “Sister Yin.”
Yin Xiaodie exploded. “What? My seniority is higher than yours! You’re messing it up!”
However, the three little fellows were so cute.
She really wanted to pinch them!
She couldn’t hold it in anymore…
Yin Xiaodie used all her strength and finally… pinched Xiaohu’s face.
Wa, wa, wa!
So soft!
She pinched Erhu again, then Xiaohu.
Soft!
No wonder Cheng Su liked to pinch her face. It was really fun!
She pinched the three little ones into emoticons.
Su Xiaoxiao looked at her in amusement.
Sensing Su Xiaoxiao’s gaze, Yin Xiaodie realized what she was doing and retracted her hand awkwardly.
“Go play,” Su Xiaoxiao said to the three little ones.
The three little ones continued to catch butterflies.
Only then did Yin Xiaodie remember that they seemed to have addressed Cheng Su as their mother just now.
“You, you, you, you… When did you have such big children? Could it be that the rumors outside are true?”
“What rumors?” Su Xiaoxiao asked despite knowing the answer.
Yin Xiaodie snorted. “You abandoned your fiance and came to the capital to acknowledge your family. Your fiance has children, so he brought his three sons to the Cheng family to look for you. Someone even said that the Saintess’ triplets are not the Holy Maiden’s, but your fiance’s. She took the blame for you.”
Su Xiaoxiao smiled. “Let’s assume so.”
Yin Xiaodie’s sense of justice exploded. “What do you mean by assuming? If it is, then it is. If it isn’t, then it isn’t. If she dares to slander you everywhere, I will clarify it for you!”
Su Xiaoxiao smiled and said, “There’s no need. I like these three children very much and will marry their father in the future.”
Yin Xiaodie looked lonely. “Ah, it’s true. You can’t be my sister-in-law anymore.”
Su Xiaoxiao was amused by her. She asked her to sit down and asked, “Did you come to look for me today about something?”
At the mention of this, Yin Xiaodie was furious. “Do you remember what you promised me?”
Su Xiaoxiao thought for a moment. “I’ll look for you at the Yin family?”
Yin Xiaodie gave her a dissatisfied look. “Did you look for me?” Su Xiaoxiao was embarrassing her.
Recently, she had been busy with Wei Xu and had indeed neglected her interaction with the Yin family.
Yin Xiaodie crossed her arms and raised her chin. “You even want me to visit you personally. How arrogant!”
Su Xiaoxiao smiled and said, “Yes, yes, yes. It’s my fault. I apologize to the Saintess.”
Yin Xiaodie asked, “Do you want to visit my residence?”
Su Xiaoxiao said, “Yes! Now!”
Yin Xiaodie opened her mouth. “I’m afraid not today. I have other things to do.” Su Xiaoxiao finally got to the point. She looked very surprised. “Really? What is
Yin Xiaodie cleared her throat. “To be honest, I’m here to discuss a patient’s condition with you. Aren’t your medical skills good? I want to hear your opinion about something.”
Su Xiaoxiao said, “Tell me.”
Yin Xiaodie looked around. Uncle Quan had already retreated. There were only the three children who were catching butterflies and the two of them in the entire small garden.
She relaxed. “First you have to promise me you won’t tell a third person about
Su Xiaoxiao nodded. “Okay, I promise you.”
Yin Xiaodie said, “If a person can be diagnosed as having several pulses at the same time, why?”
Su Xiaoxiao said, “Which ones?”
Yin Xiaodie deliberated and said, “Sinking meridian, floating meridian, frequent meridians, solid meridian.”
Su Xiaoxiao asked suspiciously, “Are you sure it was taken from one person?”
Yin Xiaodie said seriously, “I’m sure. Every time I take his pulse, it’s different. I can’t understand his lesions either. However, I have to treat him. This is my first mission after taking office.”
Su Xiaoxiao looked at her. ‘What will happen if you can’t treat him?”
Yin Xiaodie frowned. “He didn’t say, but I’m afraid… he’ll be very disappointed in me.”
Su Xiaoxiao paused. “Can you reveal more about the patient? If it’s convenient,
I’ll go take a look myself.”
“I’m afraid it’s a little difficult to go personally,” Yin Xiaodie whispered. “He’s in the palace.”
Su Xiaoxiao probed, “The King of the Southern Wilderness?”
“Shhh—” Yin Xiaodie hurriedly stood up and covered her mouth. “Aiyaya, if others find out that I revealed His Majesty’s condition to you, I’ll have to die!”
And they were worried that they wouldn’t have a chance to approach the King of the Southern Wilderness in the palace?
Su Xiaoxiao’s eyes flickered as she took her hand. “I can pretend to be a disciple of the Holy Maiden Temple. Bring me to the palace..”
