The Great Physician

Falling in Love with You (630bookla Chapter of The Great Physician)

After leaving Madam Li's courtyard, instead of following the original path, turn left and go around the crabapple grove. Then walk along the passageway of the side rooms by the wall, which is due west of the house. There is a bamboo grove there. This bamboo grove is where Li Xuntong used to live.

Built beside a gravel road, it has no courtyard and four side rooms.

Chan looked around and said, "Sister, it looks like we've never crossed the bridge before. How did Grandma cross the bridge the other day?"

Li Ruozhuo said, "It's because it's a long way." Madam Li's courtyard is accessible by two paths from behind the side rooms.

Li Ruozhuo led Chan to the front of the side room.

The unnamed flowers under the side room were already in autumn, their leaves all yellow. The path leading to the main room was a narrow passageway that could only accommodate two people. On the right side was a mountain as tall as a person.

The overall environment is very simple, so it is impossible for it to be luxurious.

Li Ruozhuo and Chan were walking along the alley when they suddenly heard screams coming from the east side, like the roars of beasts and the cries of birds, making them feel uncomfortable all over.

Chan shuddered: "What was that voice, sister?"

Seeing that no one was under the eaves, Li Ruozhuo looked at the half-closed door of the east side room and said, "Go over there."

In the main room, Li Xuntong lay on the wooden kang (heated brick bed) with a towel soaked in white wine on his head.

The old lady was sitting on the cushion at her feet when she heard the sound and Li Xuntong ran up.

The old lady said, "Why are you still acting like this?" She called to the kite, "Why are you going to see my cousin?"

Clearly, the inhuman, ghostly scream came from the madman Luo Chenyu.

People are used to it; he might be hungry, thirsty, or even hugging a woman.

The sound of a kite is...

Stepping outside, he saw no one under the eaves and muttered to himself, "I wonder where they've all run off to." He walked along the eaves to the west-facing annex and leaned over it. "Brother Menglu is calling you, can't you hear me?"

A timid voice came from inside the room: "This servant was describing my aunt's appearance and didn't hear you."

"Didn't you hear me? You don't want to serve your master, do you? Say it out loud..."

The noise was so faint that it couldn't be heard in the main house.

However, the old lady noticed that the kite was flying in the wrong direction.

She turned to her daughter and asked, "Why isn't Yuan Niao going to Chen Yu? What's she doing there?"

Li Xuntong looked a little embarrassed: "Mother, you know what Chenyu is like. He's strong and the maids can't break free from him. He's arrogant and proud, how could he possibly serve Chenyu?"

The old lady was deep in thought.

Afterwards, he sighed and said, "I was originally planning to give the kite to Chenyu as his principal wife so that he could give birth to a son and he would be able to repay the favor."

Who would willingly submit to a fool?

Li Xun said, "It's Chenyu who has let them down."

The old lady scoffed, "No wonder you get sick from getting caught in the rain, you look so useless. Even if Chenyu isn't good, it's because the master doesn't want her to marry. Once she reaches a certain age, he sends her off to marry a not-so-stupid woman. Wouldn't they be happy then?"

"It's not entirely because Mengluo is taking care of Chenyu... In short, we can't let her suffer."

"That one? The one with the oval face?" The old lady thought for a moment and lowered her voice: "Although she is not as generous as Yuan Niao, she looks like she can bear a son. She can give Chen Yu a son or daughter. I will immediately make her my wife."

Just as Li Xuntong was speaking, he suddenly heard screams from outside: "Hit people! Hit my sister! Hit people!"

The old lady looked up and asked, "Why is it my sister who hit someone?"

Yeah, shouldn't it be Chenyu who hit someone?

Li Xuntong also struggled to sit up: "No, I have to go."

Just then, the kite ran into the house with an anxious expression: "Grandma, Auntie Azhuo, I don't know how she ran into Grandpa's room and beat him."

Li Xuntong looked distressed and asked, "Where did you hit him? Did you hurt him?"

Madam Li scolded, "What kind of room are you in? You don't even know when you went in? Why don't you bring A-Zhuo here? What is she doing hitting Chenyu?"

Luo Chenyu's howling and wailing could be heard from outside.

Madam Li's heart clenched: "What are you waiting for? Bring them in."

Li Xuntong pulled his shoes off the ground: "No, I have to go to Chenyu."

As Li Xuntong walked outside, she brushed past Li Ruozhuo, who had been brought into the house. Because she was in a hurry to get her son, she didn't notice the unfamiliar niece.

........................

Madam Li's face was stern, her sharp gaze fixed on the bamboo curtain at the doorway. With a rustling sound, she said, "Please come in, Sister Azhuo."

A tall, slender girl walked in first.

Madam Li was so surprised that she opened her mouth wide. Her granddaughter? Li Ruozhuo?

The girl in front of me has features that resemble my son's, but are more delicate. She smiles adorably with her lips pursed, and her crescent-shaped eyes are like a clear spring, making one forget the mundane world upon seeing her.

"Are you Azhuo?"

Li Ruozhuo said, "How did you know I was Azhuo? I am Azhuo!"

The sweet child's voice seemed to melt people's hearts.

It was a sound that could be heard clearly, even though it was raining last night and I couldn't get up.

Madam Li waved her hand: "My darling, come and let your grandmother have you."

baby!

Chan followed in and heard him grinning.

The kite that brought the people in twitched at the corner of its mouth.

Seeing Li Ruozhuo leave, the old lady remembered the unlucky rumors about her sister and hurriedly called out, "Old Madam."

Madam Li looked at her with displeasure: "What are you doing?" At that moment, Li Ruozhuo had already walked up to the old lady.

The old lady held Li Ruozhuo's hand, smiling from ear to ear: "It's just that my Li family doesn't look like that mother's daughter at all, she doesn't look like my granddaughter."

Upon seeing the old lady's granddaughter, the kite dared not utter another word.

Shi Chan blinked and interjected, "Who did the old lady raise?"

When she was young, Madam Li was known for her shrewishness. Her father was a bodyguard, and in common parlance, he was a doorman.

Tingchan looked up and asked, "Are you Chan, Azhuo's maid?"

Chan nodded: "This servant greets the old lady."

Madam Li nodded, her expression showing satisfaction; "You've worked hard these past years."

Chan said, "It's not particularly hard, but you get beaten up and sometimes you're hungry."

She was just being polite, but she took it seriously.

The old lady thought to herself that it was indeed true that the maidservant was also foolish.

Suddenly, loud crying came from outside the house.

Old Madam Li said impatiently, "Who is it? Why isn't this over yet?"

My God, how could she forget that her beloved grandson was beaten by the granddaughter she was holding?

The kite's lips twitched again as it said, "Grandma hasn't coaxed Grandpa yet."

Madam Li glared at Li Ruozhuo: "My darling, why did you sneak into your cousin's room? And you even hit him?"

Li Ruozhuo grabbed Old Madam Li's arm: "Cousin, arrest someone."

"Arrests?"

"I'll hug you and not let go."

The old lady seemed to have thought of something, and her expression turned somewhat troubled.

The way to
