“Sister Su, my mom asked me to bring some hot water for you.” Erya said with a string of copper coins in hand. Erya knew Zhang’s situation. Her mother also gave Zhang some porridge secretly out of pity.“My mom told me we couldn’t take this money. Sister Su, please keep it.”Su Muge didn’t receive it. “This is for you, please take it. I need your help after a while.”“If there’s anything you need, just say.”Considering Zhang’s situation, Su Muge didn’t stand on ceremony so she told her what she needed. Leaving Erya to look after Su Muge, she went to the end of the village with Hutou and asked the only barefoot doctor in the village for some medicine for Zhang. Zhang’s leg had begun to rot. The rotten meat must be cut out, or the leg would be useless. She was poisoned but she did not dare to use her power on the palm since she had not grasped the use of it herself.It was late after everyth

It was almost noon when they arrived in town. Su Muge first went to the pharmacy to buy medicine and then bought some warm winter clothes for Zhang. With all those done, she returned to the town gate, waiting for Zhao Dalang. Soon Zhao Dalang returned with a jar of liquor and a basket.He put them away on the cart, groped up and down in his clothes for the oiled paper bag, and handed it over to Su Muge. “It’s already afternoon. You must be hungry, right? I bought you a dough cake made from distillers’ grains. It’s sweet.”Shopping for grandma was Su Muge’s top priority, so she forgot to eat something for lunch. It would still take about another one or two hours before they could get back, and she didn’t want to be hungry in this long trip. She reached out her hands and took over the bag as Zhao Dalang was looking at her, expectantly and carefully.“Thank you very much.”Zhao Dalang burst into laughter as he gave it to

Su Muge first felt the pulse of the old lady, and found that her heart was beating very fast, and her pulse was slippery, which indicated that her sickness was caused by the phlegm. She then put her head on the old lady’s chest and listened for a while. She vaguely heard some sounds of breathing like snoring.When she had finished checking the old lady’s coating on the tongue, she was affirmative that the phlegm in her chest was the essential problem. Once the damp-phlegm was stuck in one’s vessels, a person could easily be stifled to death.She quickly took out the two silver needles with her, sterilized them with the flame on the small table, pulled aside the front part of the robe on the old lady, and pricked the needles in.The maid watched all those in astonishment. Speaking of acupuncture, people in the state of Chu also did this to the patients. However, due to various body conditions, the acupoints and meridians were very difficult to r

With words coming out from An in front of such a big crowd, it implied the fact that Su Muge did get off the carriage on her way.Old Lady Meng did not help Su Muge this time.There was coldness in her eyes when Su Muge looked down, and then it turned into hatred when she raised her eyes to face An.“Well, so it was not Madam that had arranged those sly servants to leave me alone off the carriage?” Her voice was not loud, but enough for all the people presented to hear clearly.Although shocked inside and grabbed her handkerchief with much strength intuitively, An appeared calm with her breath eased when thinking of the servants would no doubt listen to her command. “Muge, how, how could you think your father as such a person? The bodyguards were all selected by him in person, and how could they hurt you?”An was not that stupid, so she didn’t mention a word about the maids she had arranged but only the b

“Miss, here we are.” Yueru jumped off the carriage first, and then helped Su Muge to get down.“Why, why haven’t you put on your veil cap today?!”When Su Muge raised her head, she saw Su Lun staring at her three steps away. Su Lun didn’t see her until now since he had been seated in his carriage before Su Muge had arrived at their gate back at home.She had worn her veil yesterday and he had felt everything was in normal. But now with that veil cap off and showing out her real face, it was too obvious for others to see her ugly dark red birthmark in the sun!“Come on! Take the veil hat out and help the eldest Miss to put it on!”The coldness and calmness in Su Muge’s eyes were not vulnerable towards the fury and dislike on Su Lun’s face. “Father, I did not take the veil hat with me.”“You, you...”The words were not finished when the butler of the Meng family, who had been waiting, came out a
