Country Maiden: Fields and Fortune

Chapter 610: Chapter 610: Speechless Envy (5 updates)

Mu Rourou pursed her lips.

She asked another question, "Is he married?"

"..." The silly girl looked at Mu Rourou in astonishment.

Even Xie Yi raised his eyes to look at her.

Mu Rourou’s face turned red immediately, and she was eager to explain, "I, I..."

"He is not married, nor is he engaged. As for whether he has a girl he likes, I don’t know. However, Miss Mu, he is not suitable for you!"

If it were Yuanbao, the silly girl would still support Mu Rourou to try.

After all, Yuanbao, though cruel and ruthless, is comparatively tender-hearted.

Duobao...

Forget it, he doesn’t deserve to be liked by any girl.

Realizing her intentions had been seen through, Mu Rourou felt somewhat bashful, "I, I..."

The silly girl smiled at her and continued to play Go with Xie Yi.

Meanwhile, Xie Zhinuan was consulting Dugu Zhen about diseases of the internal organs and gynecological illnesses.

Dugu Zhen didn’t have a deep understanding of these areas, but had practiced medicine longer than Xie Zhinuan, seen more cases, and felt a renewed eagerness upon seeing these two medical books.

"I will take a look at the medical books first, then discuss with you. Just like the book says, the harmony of yin and yang between a man and a woman is naturally..." His old face turned red.

Seeing Xie Zhinuan sitting upright, listening intently, he couldn’t help feeling that he was being superficial.

Xie Zhinuan truly wanted to research and thoroughly understand this medical knowledge, while he, at his age, still thought of romantic affairs, which was truly inappropriate.

He quickly focused his thoughts and explained carefully to Xie Zhinuan.

"I think this can be treated with oral medication, washing, and topical application. Even if it doesn’t completely cure the illness, it can alleviate it to some extent!" Xie Zhinuan said softly.

Combining all three methods should be able to suppress the virus.

Finally, by using Spiritual Spring Water in the medicine...

Xie Zhinuan thought thoroughly.

She believed that although the Spiritual Spring was rare, as a healer, she should use it where it was needed.

She needed to learn the medical skills, develop prescriptions, and ensure they were effective for illnesses. Even without the Spiritual Spring Water, they should still cure the diseases.

Using Spiritual Spring Water would only enhance the medicinal properties, allowing illnesses to heal faster!

"It’s getting late, you should go back and sleep too. I’m sleepy..." Dugu Zhen said as he yawned. Then he added, "These past few days, someone has sneaked into the mansion, searching for something. The intruder has competent Martial Arts, so be careful!"

"Mhm!" Xie Zhinuan nodded.

Indicating she understood.

Dugu Zhen called the two children to bed. Xie Yi gave Xie Zhinuan one last look but obediently let Qin Mao lead him away.

Looking back every three steps.

Xie Zhinuan watched this, often wanting to speak up and ask him to sleep with her at night.

But the boy was growing bigger each day, and it was not right for him to continue sleeping with her, and besides, a boy should be braver, so she suppressed the urge.

Xie Yi returned to his own room and sighed deeply.

Qin Mao glanced at him and asked with a gentle voice, "What’s wrong?"

"Nothing!" Xie Yi replied indifferently.

He obediently followed Uncle Mute to wash his face and feet, then to relieve himself, before climbing into bed, falling onto the pillow with some frustration, and pulling the blanket over himself.

Qin Mao was a bit surprised, but seemed to understand a little.

After settling in, he lay beside Xie Yi and gently pushed his back. "Do you want to sleep with your mom?"

"..." Xie Yi remained silent.

Qin Mao let out a gentle sigh, "I miss my mother too!"

Turning over to lie down, "I miss my mother, but she is thousands of miles away. I don’t know how she is doing now, if she has returned home? If her journey is safe, if she has encountered assassinations? If she and my father are safe..."

"Actually, you are very fortunate. Whenever you want to see your mother, you can always see her soon!" His voice choked up towards the end.
