Time Travel: The Best Doctor in Ancient Times-Chapter 633 - 480: Who Doesn’t Have a Few Childhood Sweethearts
Chapter 633: Chapter 480: Who Doesn’t Have a Few Childhood Sweethearts
The one who distressed Borjigin Nian was not just anyone, but a guest from the Gu Residence!
Her surname was Yue, her given name Jianjia, and the world called her Fairy Jianjia!
When Gu Changsheng laid eyes on Yue Jianjia, she was completely undone!
As a woman, when you see another woman who is more beautiful than yourself, you understand that feeling, right?
The beauty of Yue Jianjia was indescribable! Unlike Huo Shuixian, whose beauty seemed inhuman, her beauty emanated from within, as if from her very marrow, and her overall demeanor made one feel as if basking in a Spring Breeze!
This person was Xilou’s senior sister, and she arrived afflicted with a Love Gu!
Xilou asked for help, and Gu Changsheng naturally had no reason to refuse. She had already intervened to save Liu Fengyun, so there could be no excuse to ignore Xilou’s senior sister. Effortlessly, she helped her resolve the gu!
The Gu was resolved, but then the woman stayed as a guest in the Gu Residence and would not leave!
This truly vexed Borjigin Nian!
There was no other reason; Yue Jianjia’s feelings for Xilou were plain for anyone to see!
"Gu Changsheng, just drive her out! Every time I see her clinging to Xilou, my liver aches!" Borjigin Nian circled around Gu Changsheng, who was refining pills, and nagged for the hundred and eighth time.
Gu Changsheng glanced at her and continued working unfazed, speaking resolutely, "Don’t worry, your liver is perfectly healthy, not a single illness! However, whether your liver aches or not, I don’t know—I only know that if you keep muttering like this, my ears will start to ache!"
Damn, her ears were practically worn out with calluses, okay!
Upon hearing this, Borjigin Nian instantly hopped up in indignation, pointing at Gu Changsheng with an accusatory face, "Gu Changsheng, I thought we were friends. Do you have no sympathy at all? That woman Yue Jianjia, she’s here to vie with me for Xilou!"
Just thinking of Yue Jianjia’s gaze towards Xilou made Borjigin Nian’s nostrils flare angrily!
"Indeed! This just proves your taste isn’t bad. If someone is vying for her, she must be a sought-after beauty. Like Flower Peacock, it would be strange if no one wanted her!" Gu Changsheng replied as if it were the most natural thing in the world.
At this, Borjigin Nian walked a full circle around the busy Gu Changsheng to stand before her and complained again, "Gu Changsheng, tell me, how can there be such women in this world? She’s so beautiful, what kind of man can’t she have? Yet she harbors such thoughts for her own sect junior!"
"You and Di Lanyue, aren’t you also the evildoer’s junior sister, and from the same sect? Didn’t you also once harbor such thoughts for the evildoer? What’s wrong with those thoughts? A fair scholar is a fine match for a gentle lady. These affairs between sect members, even between master and disciple, are nothing new, and not to mention romances between siblings. Damn, stop making a mountain out of a molehill!" Gu Changsheng carried the medicine basket towards the furnace, fanning the flames beneath with a small fan.
"Gu Changsheng! You... you’ve made up your mind not to help me?" Borjigin Nian said angrily after hearing this.
"How do I help you? Drive Yue Jianjia away?" Gu Changsheng raised her eyes, "She’s Flower Peacock’s senior sister, his master’s and foster mother’s only daughter. Both morally and logically, I have no reason to turn her away!"
"Nian, from what I see, Flower Peacock has no such feelings for her. You should really stop worrying over nothing. Who doesn’t have a childhood sweetheart or something of the sort!"
Yue Jianjia towards Flower Peacock, what’s it called, right, the sister pines while the brother is indifferent!
Upon hearing this, Borjigin Nian suddenly felt a bit embarrassed but was still unwilling to let it go, muttering under her breath, "What’s the point of being so beautiful? Beauty brings disaster! No wonder she was ensnared by the Southern Border People and hit by a Love Gu. Being so beautiful at her age, she’s clearly a fox spirit!"
Gu Changsheng nodded in agreement upon hearing this, indeed, Yue Jianjia was in her thirties, but she looked absolutely like a fresh flower of twenty-eight!
It was truly unreasonable!
However, standing beside Flower Peacock, she was a delight to the eyes!
Two great beauties! A perfect match of handsome man and beautiful woman!
If she hadn’t been so beautiful, she wouldn’t have caught the eye of the Southern Border People and been struck by a Love Gu...tsk tsk...
Thinking this, Gu Changsheng shook her head. It goes to show that being too beautiful isn’t necessarily a good thing!
Listening to Borjigin Nian’s incessant complaints by her side, Gu Changsheng maintained the stance of an eager spectator, refraining from getting involved!
Damn, Changsheng was well aware of Flower Peacock’s crush on her. Being uninvolved was already a stroke of luck; she’d be a fool to go looking for trouble!
The festive atmosphere of the New Year grew stronger. As the saying goes, after Laba Festival, the New Year arrives. With Borjigin Nian and Yue Jianjia competing in the residence and her little chubby son coming to spar with Dandan Bug when unoccupied, life passed by extraordinarily quietly!
Gu Changsheng was quite content with this life, but in the stillness of night, she couldn’t help but think of the evildoer in Liaodong!
Gu Changsheng wouldn’t say sentimental words, but her missing him was genuinely heartfelt.
"Counting the days, that sachet should have reached his hands by now, right?" Gu Changsheng mused while lying in bed, speaking meekly to Si Xi, who was tidying up clothes beside her.
Upon hearing this, Si Xi paused in her movements and involuntarily twitched at the corner of her eye thinking of that sachet, but she still responded, "Mistress is right, in a few more days it will be New Year’s, and that sachet should be reaching Master soon!"
"Ah! I wonder what his reaction will be when he receives the sachet..." Gu Changsheng spoke listlessly.
Damn, she was actually going to miss such a great performance! A true regret in life!
"Eh... definitely not tears of gratitude..." Si Xi couldn’t help but blurt out her thoughts.
Gu Changsheng immediately sprang up from the bed at this, pointing at Si Xi with a fierce expression, "Damn it, Xiao Si Xi, that’s a bit harsh, isn’t it? Must you be so discouraging! Can’t you let a person have a proper New Year’s?!"
"Uh... Si Xi was wrong!" Si Xi quickly admitted her fault upon hearing this.
Gu Changsheng scoffed and flopped back down onto the bed in response.
Si Xi, that rascal, was always bold enough to admit his mistakes, yet stubbornly refused to reform!
However, she was really curious what reaction the evildoer would have upon receiving the sachet...
...
At the Great Zhou Liaodong Border, in the Main General’s tent!
"Has the person sent to Liuzhou not returned yet?" Zhou Mu asked as he examined the battle report in his hand.
Upon hearing this, Jiang Si’s mouth twitched, and he gestured the number eight with his hands to Jiang Wu beside him!
For the eighth time! This was the eighth time today his lord had asked!
"Back to my lord, they have not returned to camp yet!" Jiang Si swiftly replied, hiding his true emotions.
Normally, when his lord asked this question, not even a brief nap was allowed, and an immediate response was expected!
After responding, with no reaction forthcoming, Jiang Si couldn’t help but lift his head in confusion and saw his master frowning deeply. His heart tensed, and he found himself praying inside, Lady Changsheng, please quickly send back the gift!
His lord was practically on tenterhooks!
Jiang Si and Jiang Wu glanced at each other, worry flashing in their eyes!
They were truly concerned that their lord, who was so eagerly awaiting, would throw in the towel and go directly to Liuzhou City himself to demand a return gift from Lady Changsheng!
After all, their lord was someone with a history of such actions!
"My lord, shall I go take another look?" Jiang Si hesitated before asking softly. ƒree𝑤ebnσvel-com
"Hm!"
At the single sound of acknowledgment, Jiang Si took off running out of the tent.
No sooner had he stepped outside the tent than Jiang Si froze in shock, staring incredulously at the person before him. He lashed out with a kick, "Damn it, Liang Kuan, what are you doing standing here? Counting ants? Didn’t the men below tell you to report immediately upon returning to camp? Our general is nearly dying of yearning for news!"
While speaking, Jiang Si began to drag Liang Kuan away!
This Liang Kuan was none other than the Scholar General who had been sent back to Liuzhou City with the new year’s gift. As Jiang Si pulled him along, he struggled frantically, pleading, "Wait, just wait! Let me brace myself first!"
"Brace yourself? What is there to brace for? It should be Lady Changsheng preparing the return gift!" Jiang Si retorted with a glare upon hearing him.
But at these words, Liang Kuan’s face drooped instantaneously, "It’s precisely because it is prepared by Lady Changsheng that I need to brace myself!"
Thinking of handing over the box to his general, as well as the message he was meant to deliver, Liang Kuan felt like he wanted to die!
This was a terrible predicament for him!
"Enough, be it a quick chop or a slow slice, it’s still a chop; let’s do this!" Stomping the ground in frustration, Liang Kuan mustered his courage and charged toward the grand tent.
"Hey!" Jiang Si waved his hand at his retreating figure, bemused, and scratched his head in confusion, "What’s with him, acting as if he’s marching to the guillotine? What’s going on?"
While he was puzzled, Jiang Si still dashed toward the grand tent.
Inside the tent, several of Zhou Mu’s trusted deputy generals were present.
"Have you returned?" Zhou Mu set down the battle report, looked at the person kneeling before him, and waved at the military advisor.
The military advisor immediately understood and approached the kneeling Liang Kuan, reaching out his hand.
The message couldn’t have been clearer!
But Liang Kuan shook his head in terror, clutching desperately at the box in his palm!
"Liang Kuan, have you lost your mind? Hand it over! Can’t you see our lord waiting?" The military advisor said sharply, giving Liang Kuan a meaningful glance and a quiet reminder.
Upon hearing this, Liang Kuan’s head shook frantically, and looking up at his seated master, he swallowed nervously and mustered a great deal of courage to speak, "Uh, my lord, the master has a message for me to deliver to you. Can you wait for me to finish speaking before looking, how about that?"
At this point, Liang Kuan added further, "How about you wait for me to leave before looking?"
"Hmm?" Zhou Mu’s expression immediately darkened upon hearing this.
Seeing this, Jiang Si hurriedly stepped forward and kicked Liang Kuan, then made faces at him behind their lord’s back, "Have you become stupid from exhaustion on the journey? What are you doing, bargaining with our lord!"
Couldn’t he see their lord’s impatience?
Liang Kuan’s face turned even more ashen upon hearing this.
"She hasn’t given a return gift to this king?" Zhou Mu asked the trembling Liang Kuan with a deep voice.
That shouldn’t be possible! With Mr. Ban Shan present, who is a man of propriety, even if his Changsheng tends to be lazy, she couldn’t have avoided it...
