The old Duchess bore no prejudice and took an immediate liking to Liao Lin for her icy wit and brilliance.
Although she was rather indifferent to Liao Lin’s mother, Liao Mingxin, her affection for Liao Lin was immense.
That said, since Liao Mingxin was a famous divine healer in Jiangnan, the old Duchess’s resentment towards her having a child out of wedlock was slowly dissipating.
"My lady, about this Miss Liao and the young master..." The Nanny beside her hesitated to decide.
It was not until Liao Mingxin took Liao Lin to play elsewhere that the smile on the old Duchess’s lips gradually faded.
"Let it be," said the old Duchess, who had foresight. "Linlin’s talents are indeed frightening. Who knows, in ten years, our Wang Residence might very well rely on him. After all, compared to that girl from the Ye Family, these two are a better match right now."
The Nanny, having been brought over by the old Duchess as part of her dowry, understood the old Duchess’s intentions upon seeing her reaction.
But it made sense.
She thought of the rumors she had heard recently, that the remaining lady of the Ye Family was indeed too narrow-minded.
If one really had to choose, this divine healer and young master Linlin far surpassed her a hundredfold.
Watching the harmonious scene between the grandchild and grandparent, Sikong Mingxuan’s lips unconsciously curled into a smile.
"Your Grace, isn’t the world full of wonders?" Little Fuzi, who had always been attending to Sikong Mingxuan, couldn’t help but exclaim. "We had previously marveled at the divine healer’s miraculous medical skills, yet who would have thought I could one day be so close to such an Immortal-like figure."
Little Fuzi had always held the divine healer in high regard.
Especially since she took over the old Duchess’s condition and even formulated some medicine pill, which allowed the previously housebound old Duchess to go out and enjoy the lively scenes.
"But why would Miss Ye want to make trouble for Revival Hall? I heard she even healed those people, and now most of the patients who used to seek treatment at Revival Hall have turned to the Medical Hall." Little Fuzi couldn’t figure it out. "Could it be... Miss Ye knew about the young master’s existence a long time ago?"
Upon hearing Little Fuzi mention the Ye Family Medical Hall, the smile on Sikong Mingxuan’s lips paused momentarily.
"Little Fuzi," Sikong Mingxuan finally spoke after a while, "make a trip to the Government Office."
Sikong Mingxuan whispered a few words to Little Fuzi, who was momentarily stunned by the instructions but soon personally made his way to the prefect.
Half an hour later, Little Fuzi returned with the Government Office’s officials.
A compulsory order was issued to shut down the Medical Hall.
Forcibly removing the patients from the Ye Family Medical Hall.
Not just that, a seal was also posted on the main gate declaring an investigation would take place.
At this time, Ye Shaohua was not at the Ye Family Medical Hall; these past few days, she had been elusive, and without Ye Shaohua, the Medical Hall was like a body without its backbone.
Dong Xue, seeing Little Fuzi among those who came to seal the Medical Hall, felt a jolt in her heart when she caught the disdain in his eyes as he looked at her, especially since it also made her feel rather uncomfortable.
She was familiar with Little Fuzi.
When the old master was framed, Little Fuzi still believed in him.
So why was he now looking at them as if they were filth?
Little Fuzi had already formed his opinion.
He found the young Little Zhuzi from the Wang Residence to be icy smart and very endearing, and compared to them, the Ye Family seemed much more suspicious. Naturally, he felt affection for the young master, who was not only brilliant but also had excellent talents.
To even target a child, he believed that the remaining members of the Ye Family were up to no good.
And now his fourth brother’s poison was cured?
How could Sikong Mingchen not be surprised?
"Not entirely," Chu Yunmo retracted his gaze.
Sikong Mingchen relaxed, thinking just as he had suspected; how could she cure what even divine healers couldn’t?
Chu Yunmo gave him a look, then slowly added, "Only nine parts of the poison were cured, Miss Ye said that one more acupuncture session was needed to completely clear it."
Sikong Mingchen: "..."
Meanwhile, Ye Shaohua, guided by Dong Xue, went to see the Ye Family Medical Hall.
As expected, it was sealed.
After Liao Lin recovered, Liao Mingxin moved out of the Wang Residence. When she heard the Ye Family Medical Hall was sealed, she came to take a look and regarded Ye Shaohua with indifference, as if she didn’t see her at all.
[Host, why is she so arrogant? Because of the Duanwang Residence? Or because of her son and that broken sect?]
couldn’t stand it any longer, as this was the worst transmigrator it had ever encountered.
"Of course not," Ye Shaohua gently blew on the piece of paper she had just put away, smiling lightly. "It’s because of the Da Hang Bank in Imperial City, which she opened five years ago."
As for why Liao Mingxin, despite being the head of a bank, had come to Jiangnan to live a discreet and "low-profile" life, of course, she was dissatisfied with the plot in the book and wanted to show these ancient people what real medical skills were.
Or perhaps... she wanted to make a big splash.
008: [And this is just a bank in Imperial City, and she looks down on you? I really want to show her how you smashed the premier bank of China into the ground in the previous world!]
