Time Travel: The Best Doctor in Ancient Times-Chapter 620 - 476: The Suffering Changsheng

"Ah! I remember now!" Si Xi pondered for a moment and suddenly exclaimed in delight, eyes widening.

Upon hearing this, Gu Changsheng was immediately elated and quickly grabbed Si Xi’s sleeve, eyes shining like stars as he implored, "What? Speak quickly!"

Oh my goodness! Please save her!

"Sachets! My lady, it can only be sachets! There’s nothing smaller and easier to make than that!" Si Xi looked at his wife, his face set with determination as he spoke in a grave tone.

"Sachets?" Gu Changsheng, hearing this, slumped to the ground, his face filled with grievance as he protested, "Xiao Si Xi, that’s just mean! Sachets, don’t they require embroidery and all sorts of things? Aren’t you just setting your mistress up for failure?"

For someone who couldn’t even sew a straight line, embroidery? That was utter fantasy!

"My lady, forget about embroidery; we’ve given up hope on that! As long as you can make something that resembles a sachet or a purse, I’m sure my lord will be more than satisfied!" Si Xi touched his nose and sheepishly responded.

He never had any expectations for his wife to do embroidery!

That wasn’t asking for a tall order; that was an impossible task!

"No need for embroidery?" Gu Changsheng, hearing this, was instantly overjoyed, eyes wide.

"No need! Just sew on your name, that’s all!" Si Xi nodded earnestly, exuding certainty.

"Sew on my name?" Gu Changsheng, upon hearing this, blinked and made a face, but still mustered the courage to say, "Well, what if I sew it poorly? I’d be okay with looking ridiculous wearing the evildoer’s gift, but if my name is on it, wouldn’t that embarrass me too?"

Damn it, heaven have mercy, she was someone who cared about her reputation!

"My lady..." Si Xi heard this and immediately looked like he bore a great enmity, "Lady, we can’t be bargaining till the end and then expecting others to pay us instead..."

His wife’s demands were truly putting him in a tight spot!

He had been backed into a corner with nowhere left to retreat!

Seeing this, Gu Changsheng touched his nose in embarrassment and finally relented, "Alright, it’ll be a sachet then. Just sewing a name, no big deal, no big deal..."

Gu Changsheng spoke as if to reassure himself, secretly heaving a sigh of relief.

Oh my god, she had never been so grateful for the simplicity of her name’s characters! Changsheng! Just a few strokes, and she refused to believe she couldn’t handle that!

With her goal set, Gu Changsheng was the type to act immediately!

However, Gu Changsheng, the woman of action, thoroughly demonstrated what it meant to work hard for nothing!

On the first day, Gu Changsheng looked at her so-called success and nearly hung herself in the southeast branch as gratitude to the world!

Disastrous! Too horrendous to behold!

Damn it, what kind of sachet was this! It was more like a water bladder, capable of holding a liter of water without a problem! The key point was it lacked even the functionality of a water bladder!

Come on! The fabric, it leaks water!

"My lady, don’t lose heart, at least you managed to pinch the edges together!" Si Xi looked at his disheartened wife, took a few deep breaths to suppress the urge to lose it, and patiently offered words of comfort.

"Um, can we use leather instead of fabric? I might as well just sew a water bladder and give it to the evildoer! Since they are both types of pouches, it’s only one word off!" Gu Changsheng held up a finger, her eyes pleading as she looked around at everyone.

Water bladders are so useful! Damn it, those sachets are just for show, utterly useless, right?

On a military campaign, you can’t go without a water bladder. What use is a sachet for an evildoer who’s the Great General War King?

"No way! Redo it!" Mr. Ban Shan, holding a little meat bun, looked at his daughter with coldness, dropped four words, and turned to walk away.

"You!" Gu Changsheng stretched out her hand and watched her foster father walk away, feeling like she wanted to die!

"Gu Changsheng, even if you turn it into a water bladder, it won’t hold water!" Borjigin Nian, holding Gu Changsheng’s attempt, hooked his thumb through the stitched edge and wove it back and forth a few times, raising an eyebrow and commenting, "Not too big, not too small, these stitches are just perfect for my thumb to go through. Gu Changsheng, how big does a water drop have to be to not leak out?"

"Borjigin Nian!" Upon hearing this, Gu Changsheng’s face twisted fiercely as she turned around and glared at Borjigin Nian through gritted teeth.

"Tsk tsk... Look at those winding, snake-like stitches; they really are quite rare in this world. I reckon even four or five-year-old girls in Great Zhou could sew better than you! Tsk tsk..." Borjigin Nian, oblivious to Gu Changsheng’s anger, toyed with the so-called "sachet" in his hand, his face full of mock amazement as he spoke.

Gu Changsheng’s face darkened, and despite trying to hold back, she finally burst out screaming, "Borjigin Nian! Let’s have a fight!"

"Err... No thanks! I’m off to find Yue Xilou, you stay busy!" Borjigin Nian’s hand froze at the words, dropped the sachet there and then, and bolted for the door.

Gu Changsheng looked at the sachet Borjigin Nian had tossed aside, picked it up with indignation, and flung it without a moment’s hesitation!

"Come on! I refuse to believe I can’t conquer a mere sachet!"

I cut, I cut! This thing that couldn’t even be considered half a product was simply the disgrace, oh the disgrace, of Gu Changsheng!

"My lady! Take it easy!" Si Xi glanced at the household members who’d enjoyed the show and left fully satisfied, and turned to his wife with sympathy, sighing.

At his words, Gu Changsheng immediately glared at him and shouted loudly, "What are you waiting for, keep teaching! I refuse to believe that I can’t learn how to do it!"

"Okay!" Si Xi hurried over when he saw this!

The next day, as expected, in the midst of Gu Changsheng’s overtime rush to study, the second sachet came into the world!

Mr. Ban Shan, who came to watch, took one look and turned to leave!

The little steamed bun was even more dramatic, taking one glance and then covering his eyes as he ran out, shouting, "Peacock, Lion, and Tiger said one must not look at ugly things, they’ll drag down your taste..."

"Gu Yaoyao, don’t you run! Your mother will annihilate you! I guarantee your taste will be completely destroyed!" Gu Changsheng shrieked at the fleeing little steamed bun!

For three straight days, her Cool Breeze Tower had become a sight to see at the Gu Residence!

When people had nothing better to do, they loved to pass by and sneak a peek at Gu Changsheng struggling with a basket of needles and thread!

Gu Changsheng truly abhorred this, but was completely helpless!

After several days of failure, Gu Changsheng’s fighting spirit surged like never before, becoming more persistent with each setback, and bracing for battle again and again!

"Damn it! Sachet! You’ve ignited my passion!" Once again, she threw the failed product to the side and buried her head to start another round of fierce battling!

"Madam, don’t panic, don’t panic! We’ve already shrunk from a large water bladder to a small water bladder, shrink it a bit more, and success is within sight!" Si Xi said sheepishly, rubbing his nose on the side!

"Get lost!" Gu Changsheng roared in utter frustration!

Damn it, at this moment, she only wanted to fight alone, definitely not wanting any company!

Was this even company? It was clearly kicking someone while they’re down and enjoying the spectacle!

Damn, damn it! She and the evildoer now truly had a big score to settle, vowing that it would be a fight to the death!

One shouldn’t be so incessantly harmful!

Gu Changsheng even had to wonder if the damn evildoer was doing this on purpose, and then, after killing her off, he could rightfully go flirt with girls!

Such a vile heart deserved condemnation!

When he returned from the war, she definitely had to act for heaven and take down that evildoer!

Assuming, of course, she could stay alive to finish this sachet!

Hence, for the next two days, an impassioned song, filled with grinding teeth and bone-deep hatred, resounded from the Cool Breeze Tower.

The lyrics went like this, "You ask how deep my love for you is! How much I love you..."

At first, it might sound a bit embarrassing and make people blush, but then it took a turn!

"Silver needles represent my heart! My love pins down like needles! One needle after another! No blood, no withdrawal of needle, no seeing bone, my work’s not done..."

The folks of the Gu Residence could imagine her wailing while singing, stabbing at a purse with a needle, and then they pictured His Highness Prince Mu as that purse...

And then, the scene turned a bit bloody and brutal, too gruesome for anyone to bear...

They even visualized in their minds His Highness Prince Mu covered in silver needles from head to toe, an image so horrifying they dared not "pass by" Cool Breeze Tower for fun again!

Good, now Gu Changsheng finally had some peace and could work without being mocked by an audience!

So, on the eighth day, Gu Changsheng emerged from seclusion!

She tossed something resembling a sachet onto her foster father and said with a couldn’t-care-less attitude, "Foster Father, this is it! If you send it back to me for a do-over, we’ll miss sending it to Liaodong before the New Year!"

Like it or leave it! She was all out of ideas, nearly at the point of bleeding to death!

The people gathered closer to Mr. Ban Shan, staring unblinkingly at the "sachet" in his hands.

The crooked corners looked as if they had been gnawed by pigs, the lack of intricate embroidery was simple enough to offend gods and men, and there were two characters stitched on top as if crawled over by centipedes!

With great effort, they recognized that the characters read Changsheng!

"Pfft!" Borjigin Nian was the first to burst into laughter, turned his head away, covered his stomach, and began to laugh, "Gu Changsheng! You did this on purpose, right? Haha... I’m dying of laughter... This is even worse than the water bladder... Haha..."

Upon hearing this, Gu Changsheng instantly looked murderous.

But Borjigin Nian wasn’t frightened and pointed at the sachet in Mr. Ban Shan’s hand, laughing uncontrollably, "You definitely did this on purpose! You clearly didn’t want others to recognize your name, that’s why you stitched those two characters so ugly! To have such ugly handwriting in this day and age, grandma is truly enlightened! Haha..." freēwēbηovel.c૦m

"You don’t know shit! That’s cursive writing!" Gu Changsheng immediately retorted.

Damn it, don’t underestimate her literary accomplishments; she was a true intellectual!

To make her own name illegible, she had really racked her brains, okay?

Did they need to make her painstaking efforts so blatantly obvious?
