The Rise of a General's Daughter-in-Law Doctor
Chapter 6 Going out
Li Muxia is a person of action; once she has an idea, she will definitely put it into practice as soon as possible!
So early the next morning, Li Muxia hurriedly asked Hong'er to prepare a set of men's clothing for him. He planned to follow the example of many female protagonists who transmigrate and go out dressed as men. Of course, the main reason was that he didn't want people to recognize him, since the original owner's reputation was not good!
Hong'er went out to search, but returned empty-handed.
Seeing that Hong'er's hands were empty, Cui'er quickly asked, "Where are the clothes Miss wanted?"
Hong'er looked at Cui'er with a troubled expression, then looked at Li Muxia and said, "Miss, I went to ask the young master's servant, A-Qiang, as well as the guards and servants in the mansion, and they all said that there are no clothes that you can wear!"
After hearing this, Li Muxia remembered her own body shape. Although she had been exercising consistently for over a month and had made significant changes, the original owner of this body was simply too fat. While she wasn't as fat as when she first transmigrated, she was still exceptionally fat in this world! Thinking about this, Li Muxia couldn't help but laugh! "Then let's go out like this!"
I just can't properly go shopping. I'll come back as soon as I finish buying the books!
She only planned to take Cui'er with her on this trip, as Cui'er was a little older and more mature than Hong'er.
Hong'er was a little unhappy when she learned that her mistress wasn't taking her with her. Li Muxia quickly comforted Hong'er, promising to bring her her favorite pastries when she returned, and also guaranteeing that she would definitely take her next time.
She instructed Hong'er to find her a fence to cover herself, and also asked Cui'er to dress her up a little. Then she prepared to go out.
Since the General's Mansion wasn't far from the market, Li Muxia decided to walk there, which would also be a good opportunity to lose some weight.
For Li Muxia, walking is a challenge, so he used to always travel by carriage, minimizing his walking. But now, in order to lose his excess weight as soon as possible, Li Muxia exercises constantly every day, walking whenever possible and never taking a carriage.
So when Li Muxia arrived at Boxue Bookstore, he was already covered in sweat and was panting heavily, leaning against a big tree at the entrance. Seeing that Cui'er, who was helping him catch his breath, still looked so relaxed, Li Muxia became even more determined to lose weight as soon as possible!
Li Muxia paused at the door for a moment before going inside.
The bookstore was nearly empty, with only a few young men scattered around. They were all dressed identically and appeared to be students from some academy. A few of them were standing in front of a bookshelf, whispering to each other, but Li Muxia didn't bother to inquire.
Looking around, I spotted a young man behind the counter, engrossed in a book. He seemed to be the bookstore owner. I walked directly to the counter, gave a slight bow, and politely asked, "Hello, shopkeeper, do you have any books on medicine?"
The young man was the bookstore owner. Hearing Li Muxia's question, he raised his head slightly and looked at the woman in front of him wearing a veil. He didn't even need to think to know who she was. In the capital, the only woman this fat was the young lady from the General's Mansion!
Although the shopkeeper guessed Li Muxia's identity, he did not expose her. He simply replied politely, "The second bookcase on the left is full of books about medicine. Miss, you can look for them there."
Li Muxia nodded slightly, said "thank you," and went straight to the bookshelf the shopkeeper pointed to.
Although the shopkeeper had never met Li Muxia before, he had heard some rumors about her, and the Li Muxia he met today was definitely not the same person. That willful and capricious general's daughter would never say "thank you," so could he have mistaken her for someone else?
The students noticed her when she asked the question. They turned around and looked at her. Although they couldn't see her face clearly, they all guessed that she was Li Muxia, the young lady from the General's Mansion.
One of the men, with a mocking look in his eyes, chuckled and teased his companions, "Have you heard? Prince Chen broke off the engagement with the General's daughter, and the fat young lady couldn't accept it and almost choked to death."
After saying that, he looked at Li Muxia and burst into laughter. The others also laughed along!
Li Muxia didn't take their laughter seriously, comforting herself by thinking they were talking about someone else.
However, Cui'er, who was following behind her, was very angry and asked Li Muxia in a low voice, "Miss, should we find someone to teach them a lesson?" In her mind, if anyone dared to mock Li Muxia like that, they would definitely be beaten up by the young lady's orders.
Li Muxia simply said, "No need! They're just a bunch of gossipy hypocrites. There's no need to pay them any attention." Li Muxia knew in her heart that the more you cared about what these people said, the more excited they became. If you ignored them, they would get bored on their own.
Although Li Muxia and Cui'er spoke softly, the bookstore owner still heard them. He looked up at the four people who were still laughing and said in a slightly stern tone, "Young Master Feng, it is not gentlemanly to talk about others behind their backs!"
Upon hearing the shopkeeper's voice, the group awkwardly stopped smiling. The one called Young Master Feng quickly bowed to the shopkeeper and said, "Master is right, I have learned a lot!"
Li Muxia also turned around and looked at the shopkeeper who was called "Master" in surprise. She really didn't expect that he was a master at such a young age. He looked to be about the same age as the other four people!
When the shopkeeper saw Li Muxia turn to look at him, he nodded slightly in acknowledgment.
Li Muxia nodded slightly in gratitude.
The four men, having been reprimanded by the teacher, dared not speak loudly anymore, but simply lowered their heads and silently looked at the books in their hands!
Li Muxia looked for a long time, flipping through almost every book, but he still couldn't find the one he wanted. After finishing the last book, he realized that the really good medical books were probably not in bookstores. They were probably all treasured and kept on display.
After looking for so long, Li Muxia still chose two or three books to buy.
I thanked the shopkeeper again when I paid!
After leaving the bookstore, Li Muxia realized she had spent the entire morning there, and her stomach began to rumble.
I took Cui'er to a random restaurant for a bite to eat. To avoid running into anyone I knew, I deliberately chose a very secluded spot. This time, everything went smoothly, and we didn't run into anyone I knew. We finished lunch without any problems, bought Hong'er's favorite pastries, and headed home.
