To divorce his wife, the top scholar preferred being cuckolded to wearing a red hat.

The small medicine box seemed to understand Su Mingyue's words. After beeping twice, a clear voice came from the box: "This medicine box has recognized your voice. From now on, you can open the medicine box directly by using your voice."

Su Mingyue looked around; it was eerily quiet. What was that sound she had just heard? Could it have been telepathy?

"I'm a smart medicine box. Sister Su, you can call me Xiao Xiangxiang. Just tell me what medicine you need, and I can deliver it to you."

Su Mingyue didn't quite understand the meaning of "intelligence," but she was quite surprised that she could converse with Xiao Xiangxiang.

The little trinket her master left her was truly a treasure, almost as if it had come to life.

Not only can you talk to her, but you can also connect to the future and get what she wants from the future.

She even had a bold guess: she wanted Xiao Xiangxiang to send a living person from the future, and wondered if Xiao Xiangxiang could do that.

"Little Xiangxiang, really, you can get me any medicine I need?"

"Of course. But not living things."

With just one sentence from Xiao Xiangxiang, she dispelled her idea.

Since living beings cannot be teleported, her idea of ​​having Xiao Xiangxiang teleport a living person over is impossible.

"Do you know where my master went? Did he tell you?"

"Perhaps he has been reincarnated," Xiao Xiangxiang said calmly. "He sealed me away, saying that the next master would unlock me with a password. Now that you have unlocked me, you are my new master."

"If anyone knows your password, can they get their hands on you?"

"Of course not. My previous master must set the program himself and make me acknowledge it. Without the previous master's acknowledgment, even if I know the password, I still can't open it."

"How do you know if someone has gained the previous owner's approval?"

"You don't need to know this now."

"Okay." Su Mingyue realized she had indeed talked too much, even annoying Xiao Xiangxiang: "Can I take you out? Will people outside hear our conversation?"

"I can't hear you. I'm emitting ultrasound, so only you can hear what I'm saying. But if you want to talk to me, you should be careful not to let people think you're crazy."

Su Mingyue touched the box and flicked it lightly: "You're quite mischievous. So, you're just a thing called a program, not a real person?"

Yes.

"Let's go, let's go out. With you here, we'll roam the world together. I hope I'll have the chance to visit Master's world and see how it differs from here."

"There are so many differences."

When Xingchun came out of the dark room, she found that her young mistress had a medicine box in her hand.

"Miss, what is this?" Xingchun looked at the small medicine box on her young lady's back. The small medicine box was shiny silver and very beautiful. There was a large red cross on it.

“This is my medicine box, which my master left to me. Now that I’m going to start treating patients and saving lives, it’s time to take it out. This is something my master left me, and from now on, no one is allowed to touch it without my permission.”

"Understood." Xingchun only glanced at it curiously, but upon hearing her mistress's words, she dared not look again: "I will give the orders in a moment that no one is allowed to approach the mistress's medicine box."

"Let Aunt Liu make some braised pork tonight."

"Ok."

Su Mingyue placed the small medicine box on the table, where it lay quietly. If she hadn't heard it speak with her own ears, Su Mingyue wouldn't have believed that a box could talk to a person.

What will the future world be like? Why can a box communicate with people simply by setting a few programs?

It must be a magical world, otherwise Master wouldn't keep reminiscing about it.

……

While Su Mingyue had quieted down, Ruan Yingying was furious. She had gone to see Su Mingyue today intending to threaten her into staying away from Ziyu and his wife. That brat was still the same as years ago, completely unafraid of her and refusing to give her a way out.

You brat, if you're going to come back alive, you should be allowed to live. You're back, and you still dare to try and steal Ziyu's man?

What good is it if a brat, born of a mother but not raised by one? No matter how sharp-tongued she is, no one will care for or love her.

She brought a bowl of milk to Su Sihai's study and gently knocked: "Master, I've warmed up some milk for you."

"Come in." Su Sihai put down the scroll in his hand and took the bowl from Ruan Yingying's hand: "These things can be done by the servants, why does Madam have to do them herself?"

"Master is usually very busy with official duties, and I can't be of much help. I can't help with other things, but I can still do these little things."

"You're too kind, Madam." Su Sihai was in his early forties, but the years hadn't left many marks on him. Compared to his younger days, he exuded a more mature and composed aura.

"My lord, there is something I am not sure if I should say."

"Please speak, Madam." Over the years, Su Sihai's relationship with her has been respectful, without any special favor, but he has still given her the respect due to a legal wife.

"It's been ten years since the eldest young lady ran away from home. She ran away from home at such a young age, and the master sent so many people to look for her, but to no avail. I'm afraid she's probably in grave danger. We've told everyone that the eldest young lady has been recuperating in another city. I wonder if the master has any plans to bring her back."

Of course, the purpose of bringing her back is to find someone to replace Su Mingyue.

If there's a real young lady in the manor, let's see if that imposter Su Mingyue will still have the face to show her face.

Upon hearing this, Su Sihai put the bowl on the table, his gaze deepening: "Why did Madam suddenly think of this?"

“Now that Ziyu is married, there are some bad rumors going around. They say I’m biased towards my own child, and that I haven’t shown any concern for the child who isn’t mine all these years away. I was thinking that if Yueyue doesn’t get any rest, we can’t keep her living outside forever.”

"So many years have passed, I don't even know if she's still alive. I spoiled her too much back then, which made her dare to have the idea of ​​running away from home. She's been gone for ten years. In these ten years, she hasn't thought of me, her father, at all, and hasn't sent a single word home."

"Back then, she was just a child. She made a mistake and thought we should punish her severely, so she ran away from home. That matter is long in the past. If you can find her, you must tell her that I no longer blame her and ask her to come back soon. Nothing outside can compare to home."

“If she had come to her senses, she would have come back long ago. The fact that she hasn’t means she hasn’t. This rebellious daughter—her mother left her too much money, making her think that money is everything, and she’s even abandoned her family.” Su Sihai felt a headache coming on when he thought about this daughter.
