Gu Jiao was trying to admire someone's beauty, but as his palm ma.s.saged her belly, surprisingly she couldn't really feel the pain anymore and soon fell asleep.

A steady breath came out of her nose.

Xiao Liulang gently pulled his hand away, tucked her in the quilt, put out the oil lamp and walked softly out of the room.

Her residual warmth and fragrance still lingered on his fingertips. He stared blankly at his hands and suddenly realized that he had compromised a bit too much.

He closed his eyes.

Xiao Liulang ah, Xiao Liulang, what on earth are you doing?

Gu Jiao slept so well that the next day, she actually got up later than usual. By the time she woke up, Little Jing Kong had finished his morning training, had breakfast, and went to the Imperial Academy for morning cla.s.ses with Xiao Liulang.

Gu Jiao went out with Gu Yan and Gu Xiaoshun.

"Have you taken your medicine? Gu Jiao asked Gu Yan.

"Yep, I have." Gu Yan answered.

Yao s.h.i.+'s medication for depression could be stopped, but Gu Yan's anti-heart failure medication must be taken for life, and as he grew older, the medication would gradually lose its effectiveness and he must undergo a surgery to completely recover.

"Sister!" Gu Yan was waiting for Gu Jiao at the gate.

"Coming." Gu Jiao went out wearing her back basket.

Gu Yan was beaming.

His sister was taking him to school today!

Gu Yan carried his school bag and looked no different from a normal person. The occasional running and jumping did not affect his condition, which was under good control.

Gu Jiao looked at Gu Yan who had an innocent face and suddenly realized that the bond between herself and him could no longer be untied long ago. She could perceive the world through him, she was happy when he was happy, and she was sad when he was sad.

She couldn't afford to lose him.

She had to heal him.

When they arrived at Qinghe Academy, Gu Jiao straightened Gu Yan's lapel, as well as Gu Xiaoshun's crooked collar, and then said, "Go in."

They bid farewell to Gu Jiao and entered Qinghe Academy with their school bags in hand.

Gu Jiao went to the medical hall.

Today, there was an incident in the medical hall. Someone came and made a fuss, saying that their medical hall had killed his wife.

The man even brought the body!

It was such a rare occurrence, so it attracted the attention of many people and the outside of the medical hall was flooded with onlookers.

Little San was dispersing the crowd outside, and Gu Jiao went over to him and asked, "What happened?"

Little San said, "Oh, Gu girl, you’re finally here! A man inside said that we killed his wife, accusing us of killing two lives in one body and demanding a life for a life! He came here so early in the morning that all the patients in the medical hall were scared away! Those who originally came to see the physician were all too frightened to proceed as well!"

Saying that, he continued to push away the crowd using his hands, "Excuse me! Make way! Don't block here!"

Unfortunately, there were too many spectators and no one paid any attention to Little San at all.

Gu Jiao entered the medical hall through the back entrance.

The door of the lobby was being blocked by several men so as not to let the onlookers rush in. Second Owner was not here today, and it was Shopkeeper w.a.n.g who was dealing with the medical dispute.

In the middle of the lobby was a seemingly door panel, and on the door panel lay a body covered with a white cloth. The body's stomach was bulging, it should be the body with two lives that Little San was talking about.

Beside the body knelt an older woman having an emotional breakdown. She grabbed the dead woman’s hand and burst into tears, "My Hua’er ah... You're still so young to leave this world..."

Apart from her, there were still two people dressed in commoner’s attire. One of them was the husband of the deceased who looked plump and ferocious, and the one beside him, it was unknown if it was a friend or a younger brother, anyhow he looked menacing.

"A life for a life! If you Miraculous Hands Hall don't give me an explanation today, I won't leave!"

It was the dead woman's husband who was speaking.

"That's right! A life for a life!"

“Miraculous Hands Hall must give us an explanation! Otherwise, we'll smash this medical hall into pieces today! Let’s see who still dares to come to Miraculous Hands Hall for treatment in the future!"

The two people around the man echoed in agreement with loud voices, and were very confrontational.

Shopkeeper w.a.n.g was an experienced Shopkeeper, who had gone through a lot of medical troubles back in the county town, one of which was about causing death to a patient.

He did not immediately panic. He knew that if he did, all the physicians and medicine boys in the medical hall would be in a panic as well.

He collected himself and said to the other party, "Strong sir, we can talk about it peacefully if you have something to..."

“Talk peacefully my a.s.s!” The man brutally interrupted Shopkeeper w.a.n.g's words, "I’m warning you, my wife has been killed by you people! This can’t be over!"

"You say our Miraculous Hands Hall has killed your wife, but where is the evidence?"

Gu Jiao walked over calmly.

She did not speak very loudly, but for some reason, the atmosphere slightly paused and everyone involuntarily glanced at her.

Shopkeeper w.a.n.g seemed to have suddenly found support and felt relieved, "Gu girl, you’re finally here!"

Gu Jiao was young, but facing a group of ferocious people, she was much calmer than Shopkeeper w.a.n.g. The man couldn’t help but take a second look at Gu Jiao.

But after all, she was only a little girl of fourteen or fifteen years of age. After a brief shock, the man no longer took Gu Jiao seriously.

"Who are you?” He asked.

"This is our Miraculous Hands Hall’s owner!" Shopkeeper w.a.n.g said as he straightened his back.

Owner? This little girl?

Of course, the man wouldn’t think that Gu Jiao became the owner of the medical hall on the basis of her own ability. She was mostly the daughter of the big owner who had inherited her father's business.

Thinking of this, the man did not put Gu Jiao in his eyes at all.

"Evidence." Gu Jiao repeated.

The man sneered and pulled out a prescription from his pocket, "You want evidence, right? Very well! My wife was treated by your medical hall seven days ago. This is the prescription you people prescribed for her! It’s written clearly, stamped with your Miraculous Hands Hall’s seal! If you don't believe me, let everyone have a look!"

As he spoke, he showed the prescription to the crowd outside the medical hall.

People couldn't understand what was written on the prescription, but they could tell that it was stamped with a seal.

The man finally walked up to the front of Gu Jiao and Shopkeeper w.a.n.g, saying, “you people in Miraculous Hands Hall wouldn’t not know your own prescription, would you?"

Shopkeeper w.a.n.g took the prescription over.

The man wasn’t afraid of them tearing up the evidence. There were so many people watching, if they tore it up, it meant they were guilty!

Shopkeeper w.a.n.g finished reading it, and his expression changed slightly. He said, "Gu girl, this is really a prescription from our medical hall."

"Who prescribed it?" Gu Jiao asked.

Shopkeeper w.a.n.g looked at the signature under the seal and said, " Physician Song."

Gu Jiao took and scanned the prescription: chinese angelica wine, one copper coin; black mustard ear, half copper coin; Ligustic.u.m chuanxiong hort, one copper coin; Chinese Dodder Seed, one copper coin... Three pieces of old ginger. This was the prescription for the Thirteen Taibao, specifically for pregnant women to protect the fetus.

Other medical halls could also prescribe this prescription, but the prescription did look like in the handwriting of Physician Song, and it also had the Miraculous Hands Hall seal which was unlikely to be forged.

"Call Physician Song here." Gu Jiao said.

Physician Song was changing Jiang s.h.i.+'s dressing in the rear ward when he heard Shopkeeper w.a.n.g call him, he asked, "Is it urgent?"

"It's a little urgent. Can things here not wait?" asked Shopkeeper w.a.n.g.

Jiang s.h.i.+, who was now able to talk, told Physician Song, "Go ahead, you can change my dressing later."

"Alright, I'll put the gauze on first, don't move around." Physician Song took care of Jiang s.h.i.+ and went to the lobby with Shopkeeper w.a.n.g.

Physician Song looked at the situation in the lobby and the entrance and was confused.

"It's a medical dispute." Shopkeeper w.a.n.g explained.

Physician Song had yet to experience any medical dispute, but he had a patient and calm temperament. He walked over to Gu Jiao’s side, "Young Miss Gu."

Gu Jiao handed him the prescription, "Do you remember this prescription?"

Physician Song took the prescription and examined it closely. "This is my handwriting, but... I don’t remember it too well. I must go back and look at the record."
