The sister-in-law was wrong, please forgive her, my black-bellied brother-in-law

Chapter 336

"What on earth are you going to tell me?"

Ren Qingzhou looked at the tail flower that he could never get rid of and said helplessly.

"Didn't Master Uncle just say that Junior Sister's friend also lives in this courtyard? But from just now until now, we haven't seen her friend come out.

We don't know much about Junior Sister. How about we talk to her friends and see if we can find out more about her?

Knowing more about Junior Sister will also help us develop a relationship with her, right?"

Hearing this, Ren Qingzhou suddenly felt that his fourth junior brother Hua Weirong was still somewhat useful.

Why didn't he think of such a shortcut?

The two of them exchanged glances and hit it off immediately, their eyes fixed on the room where Han Yun'an and Wang Canglang lived.

They each chose a room, and then began knocking on the door rhythmically.

But after knocking on the door for a long time, there was no response.

The two couldn't help but wonder if this friend existed.

To verify their thoughts, they tried to push the door again, but the door did not move at all.

It was obvious that there was someone inside and the door was locked from the inside.

But why is there no movement?

At the moment, they were completely confused and had no idea that the current situation was entirely caused by their uncle-master.

Qiao Xi was afraid that they would use Chinese medicine, so she was very careful when entering the Xiao Mansion. However, she never expected that her master actually forgot the medicine he had put in the guest room.

Fortunately, what Xiao Yushan gave was not poison but a sleeping pill. Otherwise, when Qiao Xi found out, she would have to collect the bodies of Han Yunan and Wang Canglang.

……

Three days later.

As the time for the imperial examination drew closer, Xu Yi became more and more anxious.

But only he himself knew that what made him anxious was not the imperial examination, but Qiao Xi's five senior brothers.

On the second day after he moved into Xiao Yushan's courtyard, he had the "honor" to meet all five of Qiao Xi's senior brothers.

Because he left a "bad" impression on Ren Qingzhou and Hua Weirong on the first day he arrived, when the other three brothers heard what they said about Xu Yi, they shared a common hatred and decided to unite against the "outsiders".

Coupled with the presence of Han Yun'an and Wang Canglang, Xu Yi has not had the opportunity to be alone with Qiao Xi for three consecutive days. They can't even speak to each other for more than three sentences. Qiao Xi was "tricked" out of the Xiao Mansion by them for various reasons, under the pretext of taking her to meet some special patients and accumulate some experience in medical skills.

Hearing that it could help improve her medical skills, Qiao Xi followed them out of the Xiao Mansion without hesitation, even though she knew their purpose.

Finally, with only two days left before the provincial examination, Xu Yi's patience reached its limit.

When it was still dawn, he knocked on Qiao Xi's door, and while Qiao Xi was still sleepy, he came into her room, and the moment he closed the door, he took Qiao Xi into his arms.

Qiao Xi's sleepiness was suddenly dispelled by the hug.

She was stunned for a moment before she raised her arms and gently hugged Xu Yi's back. Then she patted him a few times in a regular pattern and comforted him softly, "What's wrong? Did you have a nightmare?"

The Xu Yi in front of her was a look she had never seen before. It was still dark, and Qiao Xi could only think this way.

Xu Yi's voice was low and muffled, echoing in the room:

"No, I just miss you a little!"

When he said "I miss you", his tone of voice unconsciously dragged out, as if he was sad, or unconsciously acting coquettish, but he pursed his lips, unwilling to say out loud the grievance that Qiao Xi had ignored him in recent days.

When Qiao Xi, who was in his arms, heard these words, she even forgot her shyness and was filled with emotion and tenderness.

The gently embraced hands tightened unconsciously, making the distance between the two people closer.

"I'm sorry, I've been out for a long time these past few days and neglected you. I'll pay attention in the future."

Qiao Xi whispered an apology into Xu Yi's ear.

But when she looked up and saw the light outside the window, she hesitated, then patted Xu Yi on the back and whispered a reminder:

"Okay, the sun is about to come out. You'd better go back to your room quickly, otherwise if my senior brothers see me, they might even stop me from returning to the Xiao Mansion."

After saying that, Qiao Xi realized that Xu Yi had no intention of letting her go. She couldn't help but sigh and spoke to comfort him again, "Don't worry, I won't go anywhere in the next two days. I will just accompany you until you enter the examination hall."

With her assurance, Xu Yi slowly loosened his arms.

He stared at her for a while and finally went back to his room.

Over the next two days, Qiao Xi indeed declined all invitations from several of her senior brothers, and quietly accompanied Xu Yi for two days until she sent him and Han Yun'an to the examination hall.

Han Yun'an was not around, so Wang Canglang followed Han Yun'an's arrangements and followed Qiao Xi silently.

The two of them thought they would come here again to welcome Xu Yi and Han Yun'an in nine days, but they didn't want to see them again, but they were in the court.

Li Wen saw that the annoying person was finally no longer an eyesore in front of his junior sister, and his happiness was directly displayed on his face.

He smiled brightly:

"Junior Sister, do you have time to go with Senior Brother to see a special patient now?"

It’s not that Li Wen is not humble, but among his senior brothers, his medical skills are the best. Sometimes even Xiao Yushan admires him.

Such an outstanding man, after just a few days of contact with Qiao Xi, he found that the medical skills of this junior sister who had just arrived in Baidi City a few days ago were not inferior to his, but even better than his.

Not only him, but several other fellow disciples were also amazed by Qiao Xi's medical skills.

Out of pride, they took Qiao Xi to see some "special" patients whenever they had the chance, but in fact, they just wanted to show off that they had such a powerful and beautiful junior sister.

However, this time, Li Wen was serious.

It was because he had indeed encountered a special patient, and, looking at the entire Baidi City, or the entire Tianle Country, he was afraid that only his junior sister could cure this patient.

Since Xu Yi was not there, Qiao Xi naturally would not refuse.

In the carriage, Qiao Xi first looked at Li Wen, who had a serious face, then looked at Ren Qingzhou, who had a frown on his face, and said in a relaxed manner:

"Big Brother, Third Brother, I'm just going to treat a patient, not to be executed, why are you so sad?

Also, Senior Brother, you said that patient is special. Before we get to the patient, could you please tell me what makes him special?

Hearing this, Li Wen looked up, but he didn't open his mouth to explain. Instead, he nudged Ren Qingzhou beside him with his elbow and said, "Third Junior Brother, you go ahead and tell me."

After receiving Li Wen's order, Ren Qingzhou thought for a while before slowly speaking:

"Junior Sister, that patient is special, not because of his special illness, but because of his special identity."

Special status? What does that mean?

In the eyes of these medical practitioners, aren’t there only patients, and don’t they pay attention to people’s identities?

Speaking of identity, Qiao Xi remembered that she had wanted to ask her master about the jade pendant that Ren Qingzhou gave her, but because of Xu Yi's arrival, she never found a chance to ask.
