“Enough! Miss Lin is here to heal. You can invite a better doctor back if you don’t believe her, or shut up now!” Xia Chengzhu said impatiently.
Those women stopped speaking when they heard the words.
In addition to Xia Chengzhu’s words, what Zhao Chuchu said was so close to home for one of them.
Xia Songquan kept staring at Zhao Chuchu.
Only when they were all quiet did Xia Songquan speak. “Have we met before?”
Zhao Chuchu looked at Xia Songquan. “I haven’t seen you before.”
“No, we must have met.” Xia Songquan felt Zhao Chuchu looked too familiar, but like the butler, he could never remember where he had seen Zhao Chuchu before.
However, he was sure of one thing. He had definitely seen Zhao Chuchu before.
Zhao Chuchu faintly smiled. “Old Mr. Xia, if you say such words again, I’m only afraid I won’t be able to leave here later. Your concubines are going to tear me up, I guess.”
“Who dares? I can keep whoever I want. You don’t have to care what they think.”
“Are you planning to adopt a granddaughter, Old Mr. Xia?”
Xia Songquan suddenly did not know how to reply.
If he said he wanted this young girl in front of him to be his granddaughter, it would seem like he was being too ridiculous.
But he soon dismissed this concern. He could take whoever he wanted as his concubine, and there was no one he couldn’t get. This girl was young but bold and funny, different from his other women.
Zhao Chuchu saw through Xia Songquan’s mind and laughed coldly in her heart.
She wondered if the men of the Xia clan were all like this, only thinking about the affairs between men and women.
He was almost dead but still thinking about women.
Perhaps this confirmed that he could not live without women for a day.
“Miss Lin, you must be joking. I don’t have the fortune to have a granddaughter like you.” Naturally, Xia Songquan could not take Zhao Chuchu as his granddaughter.
He didn’t even want to hide his intentions.
If the Xia clan really had such a woman with unparalleled medical skills, it would definitely do more good than harm to the Xia clan.
Whether for the sake of the Xia clan or his personal desires, he had to find a way to keep Miss Lin in the Xia clan.
As for Zhao Chuchu, he would personally go to her later.
At that time, the Xia clan would have two female miracle doctors, so how could they still be afraid of not being able to compete with the Yuan clan? “Give me your hand.” Zhao Chuchu came to the bedside and sat down.
Xia Songquan was still staring at her.
Zhao Chuchu pretended not to notice anything and took his pulse.
“Miss Lin, how is it?”
“You’re just in shock, and I’ll prescribe some medicine to calm your mind.
However, I must remind you that you have the precursor of a stroke, Old Mr. Xia. You should pay more attention to your diet.”
As soon as Zhao Chuchu finished speaking, those women got emotional first. “What nonsense! Old Mr. Xia is in good health. How can he have a stroke?” “Old Mr. Xia, she is a quack. Don’t trust her.”
“In my opinion, why don’t we just beat her out? Then she won’t be here to confuse the public?”
“The young girls nowadays are so scheming. They will do anything to get Old Mr. Xia’s attention, even things like cursing Old Mr. Xia.”
“Say it. Did the Yuan clan send you here? What are you going to do in the Xia clan?”
Zhao Chuchu glanced at those women and snorted. “If you have a terrible memory, ask Mr. Chengzhu how I came to the Xia clan. How did it become that I did it on purpose in your mouths?
“If you are blind, I don’t mind helping you to cure it. After all, your Xia clan is not short of money. Otherwise, it will be embarrassing if others know the Xia clan raises a group of blind people. Oh, by the way, you can sew up your mouth if you can’t talk properly. Don’t be embarrassed here!”
“You… You…”
“Me? I am very fine. At least I don’t need to please men to get my food and clothing. If you don’t have that ability, don’t think of others as being like you and make others hate you.”
“Shut up! You shut up!”
Zhao Chuchu faintly curled her lips, not bothering to pay attention to these women.
It was their business if they liked to fight among themselves.
Zhao Chuchu would never get involved in it.
“Enough! All of you, get out of here. You can pack your things and leave now if you don’t want to stay in the Xia clan. What’s the point of arguing day and night?” Xia Songquan scolded angrily.
Those women silenced and all glared at Zhao Chuchu before they turned around and walked out of Xia Songquan’s room.
“Miss Lin, don’t bother yourself with such women,” Xia Songquan said.
Zhao Chuchu looked at him. “Old Mr. Xia, it’s better to discipline them properly.
This makes me feel disgusted.”
Xia Songquan was furious when he heard this.
“Miss Lin, do you know what you are talking about?” “Oh, I’m sorry. I shouldn’t interfere. This is your family matter. Sorry.”
“It’s not impossible if you want to interfere, Miss Lin.”
“Old Mr. Xia, I can even be your granddaughter.”
“A woman only needs to be attached to a man. No matter how old the man is, he is an object of competition for women as long as he is capable.”
“You seem to feel good about yourself. But unfortunately, I’m not short of money. You should tell that to the right girl, Old Mr. Xia.”
“How are you sure that you are not the right girl?”
Zhao Chuchu suddenly looked back at Xia Chengzhu. “What do you think, Mr. Chengzhu? Do you mind having an additional mother younger than you?” Xia Chengzhu was as sick as swallowing a fly when he heard this.
He couldn’t believe that Xia Songquan didn’t know that he was hitting on Miss Lin, and now Xia Songquan was grabbing her from him!
“Miss Lin, you must be joking.” Xia Chengzhu forced a smile.
“As you heard, Old Mr. Xia, your son does not wish to have such a mother.” “Miss Lin, my children have no right to stop me if you are willing to marry me.”
“But I’m not willing to. I’m young and beautiful and can find a much better young man, so why do I have to marry you, an old man who’s half in the grave? Old Mr. Xia, forgive me for speaking harshly. You are not worthy of me.”
“How dare you!”
“Calm down, Old Mr. Xia. You will likely have a stroke if you get angry like this.
And then it will be useless even if many beautiful women are around you.” Xia Songquan’s face turned gloomy.
The butler’s face darkened. “Miss Lin, you’ll regret showing no appreciation of favor.’
“What? Do you also want to threaten me? By the way, haven’t you heard I won even the young master of the Hong clan in riding and arrow-shooting at the poetry and literature gathering? It’s ridiculous to think of trapping me even with your Xia clan’s ability.”
“I just want to remind you that here is Guangqing Province.”
“So what? Is Guangqing Province the Xia clan’s place? Where do you place the
Yuan clan?”
“Miss Lin, you are very eloquent, but it will not do you any good to win an argument for a moment. If you are patient in one moment of anger, you will escape a hundred days of trouble.”
“No. I’ll get angrier if I put up with it for a while, and the more I think about it, the more I feel I suffer. Don’t expect me to face you with a better attitude if your Xia clan doesn’t respect me..”
