World-shaking First Daughter: Powerful Medical Princess Chapter 93 - Pay Attention to Her Marriage

Chapter 93 Pay Attention to Her Marriage

Su Muge suddenly met Xia Houmo’s deep eyes, feeling that she was too emotional tonight and had made an indiscreet remark.

“Two guests, here are your wontons.” Fortunately, the boss brought up the wontons at this time, which eased the embarra.s.sment of Su Muge.

Speaking of inviting Xia Houmo to dinner, Su Muge was actually on a whim. She had never been to this wonton store before, but the smell was quite tempting.

Su Muge scooped one wonton, blew on it, and put it into her mouth.

“Wow, so delicious.”

Xia Houmo felt amused to see her eyes rounded with excitement before she could swallow the wonton down.

Maybe both of them were hungry, or maybe the atmosphere was good tonight; they soon finished a bowl of wonton noodles.

“Huh, I’m full and really satisfied.”

Su Muge took out dozens of copper coins and placed them on the table.

“Let’s go, Your Royal Highness.”

Xia Houmo nodded and followed her out of the wonton store. When they walked away, they could vaguely hear the shopkeeper saying that the money was too much.

A bowl of wontons was no more than a few copper coins. Su Muge had given more money indeed, but she was happy to do so!

“Have you received the lamb I sent to you?”

“Yes, Your Royal Highness. You don’t have to be so courteous.” Anyway, the bear paws were also given to me by you!

Xia Houmo replied noncommittally.

“It’s too late. I’m going home.”

Xia Houmo took a glance back, and Donglin knowingly stepped up with the horse.

Xia Houmo mounted the horse and looked down at Su Muge. “I’ll send you back.”

Looking at Xia Houmo’s hand, Su Muge was stunned for a moment. It wasn’t in the wilderness after all. If they were seen … Besides, at the thought of being so close to Xia Houmo, she became nervous with her heartbeat accelerated!

“Thank you for your kindness, I’d better … well!”

Before she could finish her words, Su Muge was picked up like a kitten on the horse by Xia Houmo once again.

Xia Houmo cracked the horsewhip in his hands and galloped ahead on the street.

Zuoqiu rushed out of the darkness and walked to Donglin.

Seeing that Zuoqiu was to follow up, Donglin reached out to stop him. “Didn’t you see the gesture of His Royal Highness just now?”

Zuoqiu was puzzled. “What gesture?”

“His Royal Highness didn’t want us to follow.”

“Uh.”

“Are the wontons at that wonton store very delicious?” Donglin rubbed his belly; he was also a little hungry. Usually, they would eat solid food if getting hungry outside, but he didn’t want to eat it today!

Zuoqiu. “…”

Donglin put his arms around Zuoqiu’s shoulders. “Let’s go and have a try. His Royal Highness has eaten a whole bowl of wontons.”

That was because he was eating with Miss Su! Idiot!

After sending Su Muge to the gate of Su Mansion, Xia Houmo left.

Riding a horse after a meal, Su Muge felt her stomach was churning.

“The eldest Miss, you’re back.”

As soon as Su Muge arrived at the gate, the guarding porter greeted her warmly.

“Yep.”

Being too tired, Su Muge went back to Peachblossom Courtyard and went to bed after a bath. It was a deep and dreamless slumber.

When she woke up early the next morning, Duke Qing had arrived at Su Mansion with honorariums.

Su Lun was off today and had already received him in the front hall.

As the benefactor of Duke Qing Mansion, Su Muge must be present.

When Su Muge entered the front hall, Duke Qing and Su Lun were drinking tea.

“Pay my respects to you, Duke Qing, and father.”

Duke Qing was wearing a new robe today, making him much more energetic.

“Miss Su, don’t be over-courteous. I’m here today to thank you, Miss Su.”

Duke Qing was the Grade-1 Duke after all. Therefore, even if he came to express his grat.i.tude, he wouldn’t salute Su Muge; it was enough for him to be present and send his rewards.

“Bring it up.”

Duke Qing asked his men to carry a large box in the hall.

Looking at such a large box, Su Muge felt a little disappointed. He couldn’t have given her such a large box of money. Even if Duke Qing wanted to, he wouldn’t behave in such a vulgar manner!

But when the maid opened the box, Su Muge’s eyes brightened up.

Duke Qing said with a smile, “I heard that Miss Su likes to cultivate some herbs in addition to studying medicine. These seeds are collected for you. I wonder if you like them, Miss Su.”

Of course, she couldn’t like them more!

Su Muge managed to behave as calmly as possible.

“You’re so thoughtful, Duke Qing.”

Looking at the seeds in the box, Su Lun who was sitting aside couldn’t see anything special about them.

“Duke Qing, I’ve prepared a banquet in the front hall. Please come with me.”

Duke Qing nodded. “Okay.”

After the two left, Su Muge asked a few pageboys to carefully carry the box to Peachblossom Courtyard.

The seeds in this box were mostly seedlings, which would die easily and required special care.

“Miss, what are these things that Duke Qing sent you?”

Su Muge smiled delightfully. “Of course good things.”

Su Muge asked Xinche to vacate an area in the yard, where she would plant these seedlings.

Her life went on peacefully. In addition to going to the palace to continue detoxifying Xia Hourui, Su Muge would usually stay in Peachblossom Courtyard. Occasionally, she would go to Cheng Ran’s yard to see the children’s learning progress. In a flash, more than half a month had pa.s.sed.

With quite a good weather this day, Su Lun was off and got up later than usual.

An asked to bring up the breakfast that had already been prepared.

“My Lord, try this glutinous rice dumpling. It is said to be the latest snack in the capital, and it is also packed with red beans.” An put a glutinous rice dumpling into Su Lun’s bowl. Su Lun had always been fond of this kind of soft food and immediately took a bite.

“Well, it’s really tasty. Try it. Just let the maids serve.”

“Okay.”

After breakfast, An asked for some hot tea.

“My Lord, I have something to ask you.”

“What is it? Just tell me.”

An took a sip of tea and smiled, “If I remember correctly, the eldest Miss is nearly sixteen, so it’s time to consider her marriage now.”

Su Lun paused with a teacup in his hand and said after a moment of silence, “It’s indeed necessary to consider it carefully.”

He wouldn’t care about such things in the past, but Su Muge was different now and her marriage couldn’t be arranged casually.

“Since Zhao is not sociable and you’ve watched Muge grow up, pay attention to her marriage these days.”

“Yes, I understand… Ah!” Before An could finish her words, she suddenly groaned while covering her head painfully.

Su Lun was taken aback by her and reached out to support her. “What’s wrong with you?”

An gasped in Su Lun’s arms with a pale face. “I don’t know. I suddenly felt dizzy.”

“I’ll let Muge come and see you.”

An shook her head. “How can I make her come because of such a trifle? Perhaps I’m too tired these days and just need a rest. There’s no need to let Muge come.”

Seeing her symptoms not serious, Su Lun nodded.

“Well then, take a good rest. I’ll go to the study.”

Li Mama stepped forward to hold An up and watched Su Lun out of the yard.

“Madam, are you okay?”

An shook his head lightly with a pale face and said in an indifferent tone. “What problem can I have? You’ve heard what I said to My Lord just now. These days, help the eldest Miss find a suitable husband.”

After a glance at An, Li Mama looked down quickly. “Yes.”

Knowing nothing about Su Lun’s intention to marry her, Su Muge was still absorbed in cultivating her herbs.

She had been thinking about removing the birthmark on her eyes. It was difficult but not impossible.

“Miss, the young master regurgitates milk again.”

Su Muge paused with the shovel in her hand. “He regurgitates milk again?”

She handed the shovel to Xinlan, washed her hands, and entered Zhao’s room.

Su Wenmo was crying and hiccupping in the room. However, she was so focused on the herbs that she didn’t hear.

“Mother, brother regurgitates milk again?”

“Yes, I listen to you and feed him by myself every day. But these days, he would regurgitate milk after drinking. He’s becoming thinner.”

Su Muge stepped forward and touched little Wenmo’s belly. It was normal for children to have a bulging belly, but little Wenmo’s belly was too bulging and the blood vessels on his belly were too prominent. It seemed that his belly would explode if poked lightly.

“Let me check up Wenmo first.”

After taking off all his clothes, Su Muge took his pulse and made a general checkup.

Strangely, little Wenmo had no sign of sickness. Judging from his pulse, his problem was still the same as before — gaseous distention.

Seeing that little Wenmo had returned normal after stopping drinking the nanny’s milk, Su Muge didn’t prescribe medicine to him. Later, she took his pulse and found no problem with him, so she let the matter drop.

“How is your brother? Is he sick?” Zhao asked anxiously.

“Judging from his pulse, he just has some indigestion. I’ll give him some medicine later.”

Su Muge returned to her room. After thinking, she prescribed a dose of medicine for little Wenmo, which would help her find the root cause whatever his problem was.

After the medicine was prepared, Su Muge asked Yueru to feed it to little Wenmo.

“After little Wenmo took the medicine, as soon as he vomits, report it to me.”

“Okay, I got it.”

…

Su Muge had saved Second Prince, Madam Duke Qing, and her son; she had also been treating the Emperor. Because of these, Su Lun, who was not a high-ranking official, was busy with social engagements these days. Many officials with higher ranks were all intended to fawn on him, giving him a sense of superiority he had never had before.

“Lord An, your son-in-law has won great glory for you.”

In the best restaurant in the capital, Su Lun was surrounded by a group of people, toasting and drinking, who looked very cheerful.

On the second floor, Minister An stood in the corridor with his colleagues and looked at Su Lun who was busy socializing; there was always a faint smile on his Buddha-looking face.

“You should say it’s my inferior granddaughter who has won credit for me.”

“You’re right, My Lord.”
