Rebirth: My Healer Wife Owns Superpowers-Chapter 315 - Yueyue, Save Second Mother Please
Chapter 315: Chapter 315 Yueyue, Save Second Mother Please
“Master?”
She focused and listened, and indeed it was Huang Zai’an’s voice.
Ever since that old guy took the Carefree Pill, his qi was robust, and his voice loud.
“… when my disciple returns, your illness will have a cure… hahaha…”
Judging by the way he spoke, it was as always; set on exploiting his disciple. Who else could it be but her so-called master?
Qi Yue hurriedly left the intersection and walked towards the wooden house.
...
As soon as she stepped onto the path, someone rushed out shouting.
“Yueyue, oh, is it really you? You’ve come back?”
The woman was very excited, hope flickering on her wan, sallow face, reaching out both hands as if she couldn’t wait to grab Qi Yue.
“Yueyue, please save your second mother, save our whole family, will you?”
Second mother?
Qi Yue was utterly confused.
She didn’t remember having a second mother.
“Who are you? I don’t have any second mother.”
It wasn’t until a middle-aged man covered in wrinkles rushed over, calling her niece-in-law, that Qi Yue realized.
This was the family of Zhao Xiyan’s second uncle and aunt.
When the Emperor granted amnesty specifically to Zhao Xiyan’s family, they actually forgot this family. That was quite crafty.
But if Zhao Xiyan himself didn’t bother with it, why should she?
Besides, this family of three had tried every means to humiliate Zhao’s family back then!
Should she, Qi Yue, really save those who bullied her man? Would she still be human if she did?
However, they were already punished, and she didn’t want to kick them while they were down, so with that thought, she pushed away Zhao’s second mother.
“Stay away from me. The Emperor is the one who demoted you. If you want freedom, go find him.”
Upon hearing this, Zhao’s second mother began wailing as if her heart was being torn apart.
“It’s all because of Zhao Xiyan! He gets to go back to being a Marquis after being pardoned, yet he won’t let us off!”
Zhao Yongxin, the second son of the Zhao Family, wailed like a woman, throwing himself to the ground and shouting loudly.
“There’s no justice! My nephew has caused his uncle to fall to this state, and doesn’t give a damn!”
Qi Yue found it amusing.
Had these people forgotten who had clamored for a family split and even written a severance agreement?
Qi Yue didn’t want to speak with these people anymore and headed straight in Huang Zai’an’s direction.
Through the fence, she could see someone lying on a chair in the courtyard, talking with a few others.
“Doctor Huang, will Divine Doctor Qi really come here to find you?”
“Of course! She is my disciple, after all. How could a disciple not think of her master?”
“Doctor Huang, did Miss Qi really learn medical skills from you? Her medical skills seem much more advanced than yours!”
“What do you know? This is what they call ‘the student surpasses the master’!”
“….”
Qi Yue was impressed.
Aside from being mediocre in medical skills, her master loved to brag.
But how could he dare to stay out in the open here, unafraid of the Hu Family father and son seeking retaliation?
While she was pondering, someone noticed her, and then Huang Zai’an leaped up from the chair.
“Disciple, you’ve finally arrived. Your master has missed you terribly.”
Huang Zai’an was still acting like an old imp, tearfully making a fuss the moment he saw her.
“My dear disciple, your master has suffered greatly to watch over your clinic…”
Seeing that Huang Zai’an’s condition had improved tenfold compared to before, Qi Yue’s lips twitched.
The source of this c𝐨ntent is freёnovelkiss.com.
“Suffered greatly? You seem quite well to me.”
While speaking, Qi Yue quickly scanned the surroundings.
The place was the same as before, only much more worn.
It was clear that since they left, others had lived here.
The few people who had been crowding around Huang Zai’an now discreetly stood back, sizing up Qi Yue from head to toe.
Qi Yue ignored them and pulled Huang Zai’an aside to talk.
“Master, why are you staying here? Don’t you know that Hu Keqing’s men are looking for you everywhere? What about Qu Wei and Little Shanzi?”
Huang Zai’an pulled at his beard and glared at her.
“Disciple, as soon as you open your mouth, you’ve got so many questions. Which one am I supposed to answer first?”
Qi Yue rolled her eyes, too.
“So, would you prefer to counter-question me instead?”
Huang Zai’an chuckled.
“I am your master, after all. What’s the harm in letting me have my moment?”
Qi Yue was at a loss for words.
“Then could Master please take the trouble to explain the situation to me? Is that alright?”
Only then did Huang Zai’an happily consent with a word and took Qi Yue to the back courtyard.
The small pavilion in the backyard had been converted into a room. It was only that this place was much larger, standing by the vegetable bed to talk wouldn’t be overheard by others.
Huang Zai’an briefly recounted the events that had happened from start to finish, and Qi Yue also broke out in a sweat listening to them.
Hu Keqing had launched a sudden attack, bringing along three thousand soldiers.
If Qu Wei hadn’t subdued the soldiers with his laser gun, Little Shanzi would have been shot dead that night.
“My disciple, you have no idea, that Hu Keqing became ruthless. If it weren’t for your master’s good hiding, I would’ve been shot into a hornet’s nest long ago.”
“It’s only thanks to Qu Wei’s powerful weapon that we made it out of the city…”
Huang Zai’an rambled on and on and seemed never to get to the point.
Qi Yue really couldn’t take it anymore and finally said something.
“Can’t you speak of something important, where is Qu Wei?”
Huang Zai’an’s eyes bulged.
“You’re just a child, can’t you be a little understanding of an old man’s memory? I’m just saying whatever comes to mind!”
Qi Yue was fed up, wondering whether she should prepare some medicine for Huang Zai’an to prevent senile dementia.
Listening to Huang Zai’an’s rambling, Qi Yue patiently heard him out and roughly understood that Qu Wei and Little Shanzi had gone hunting.
They had been hiding everywhere before and later discovered that those people didn’t check the places where the exiles lived, so they hid here.
Huang Zai’an even tricked the people here, claiming they had incurable diseases that only her disciple, the ‘Divine Doctor’, could cure.
The exiles living here naturally knew of Qi Yue’s medical skills. On one hand, they sought treatment, and on the other hand, they feared Qi Yue, so they didn’t disclose the whereabouts of the three and even vacated two rooms in the place they had occupied for them to live in.
Counting the days, the three had already been staying here for more than ten days.
“Disciple, Qu Wei said that if you were to come looking, you would most likely come to this place, so we’ve been hiding here.”
Qi Yue was somewhat puzzled.
“How did he know I would come here? What if I just went to the valley and left!”
Huang Zai’an chuckled.
“How could that be possible? Qu Wei said, this is the place where you and Zhao Xiyan lived together, you would surely come to relive the memories…”
“Alright, you can stop it now, old man, you’re getting more and more preposterous!”
“Fine, I won’t talk about it anymore. I’ve already told those people that you’ll cure them, don’t forget to do so and heal everyone quickly.”
What could Qi Yue say to such an unreliable master?
The master digs a hole and the disciple fills it!
Fortunately, Qi Yue was quick at diagnosing and efficiently treated a few people, distributing some medicines, and sent the crowd away.
By the time it was noon and Qu Wei still hadn’t returned, Qi Yue couldn’t help but feel an ominous premonition rising in her mind.
“Master, why haven’t they returned? This place is not safe to stay for long; we need to leave quickly.”
Huang Zai’an looked around anxiously and started feeling restless, too.
“Yes, why haven’t they come back yet? Should I go and check?”
Qi Yue frowned, “Let’s go together; something feels off to me.”
Huang Zai’an twirled his beard and said, “These people have been frightened by you long ago, they dare not do anything. Now that you’re here, they’re even less likely to act.”
But Qi Yue still insisted.
After all, even though she was strong now, she was not invincible, especially since they needed to rescue three rather helpless people this time.
Better safe than sorry.
At the same time, Zhao Yongxin was already leading his men towards this area.
