The head of the Mu family

Chapter 91 A Muddled Journey Causes Qianyan to Return Home and Huaisheng to Worry

Mu Huaisheng quickly stood up and pulled Qianyan behind him.

"Who are you looking for?"

If I'm not mistaken, the noble-looking man gave me a sharp look.

Mu Huaisheng's heart skipped a beat, but he still straightened his chest:

I'm not as daring as I used to be.

I've trained with the Great Hao Emperor several times already.

But I still felt a little uneasy.

We absolutely cannot back down!

There's also Qianyan.

If you take the child out, you have to hand him back to his sister.

Facing the sharp gaze, Mu Huaisheng forced himself to remain calm and said:

"If you are here for medical treatment, please have a seat!"

"Forget the doctor, go find Yao'er!"

Yao'er~ I'm your uncle!

Do you still remember?

Mu Huaisheng sighed:

The one with a complicated background is not myself, but Qianyan.

Never mind, let's see what's going on first. We can't just ignore it.

Mu Huaisheng looked warily at the group of people, and asked softly without turning his head:

"Qianyan, do you know them?"

"Yao'er, I have avenged Zilian and Yanzhi!"

You've been exceptionally intelligent since childhood. Do you still remember your uncle?

I know you resent me.

But things were too complicated back then, with too many reasons. Why don't you come back with me, and I'll explain everything to you?"

Mu Huaisheng was a little dazed:

My goodness! What a plot full of blood feuds!

This involves a life, what should I do next?

The noble-looking man said softly again:

"Yao'er, come back with me, okay?"

All these years, I've been searching for news of you everywhere, I never imagined you'd be in Yingtian!

"I can go back with you first, so as not to disturb others!"

Mu Huaisheng silently let go, holding Qianyan's hand from behind.

Qianyan immediately grasped it back, just like when they were children.

"She was a traveling healer who just picked me up and raised me."

"I trouble my uncle to give me some money so that she can continue to treat and save people wherever she goes."

Mu Huaisheng was somewhat puzzled:

If he's your uncle, why are you being so serious?

There were no tearful family reunion scenes either.

Also, why not mention Wanxing?

Forget it, I won't say anything more and won't cause any trouble.

The atmosphere was somewhat tense, and neither side spoke.

"I always thought you were an orphan. I never imagined you had an uncle. That's wonderful!"

Mu Huaisheng spoke up subconsciously, easing the tension.

Unexpectedly, the atmosphere became even more tense.

The hand behind him gripped even tighter.

"Ah Da! Give this kid some silver!"

The aristocratic man spoke coldly.

A man in black robes took out a stack of one-hundred-yuan silver notes from his pocket and handed them to Mu Huaisheng without even looking at them.

Mu Huaisheng quickly let go of Qianyan's hand, took the silver note, and put it in his pocket.

He then reached behind him and grasped Qianyan's hand, which she hadn't had time to pull back.

Qianyan gave a helpless smile.

"Since you are Qianyan's uncle, you are generous and well-dressed."

It would be perfectly reasonable for Qianyan to go back with you.

However, if Qianyan goes back with you, her family will not like her.

Do not force him to stay by your side just to maintain your reputation for benevolence.

You can come find me again, and I'll return your silver to you. You just need to give me back Qianyan!

Suddenly it occurred to me that my character is an itinerant doctor.

"I roam the world, and my whereabouts are hard to find."

If that day ever comes, you can simply leave and he will find me.

After he meets up with me, I will have Qianyan let you know that I am safe!

I will also have someone return your money to you.

Upon hearing this, the noble-looking man actually looked at her properly:

"rest assured!"

Qianyan wrote words in her palm:

Focus on your work, and wait for me when you get back!

Mu Huaisheng gently squeezed his hand to show:

I know, and I'm waiting for you!

Qianyan rode a horse with his uncle, and in the blink of an eye, they were far away in a cloud of dust.

Mu Huaisheng suddenly felt an emptiness in his heart.

The remaining things seemed impossible to organize properly, no matter how I tried.

After finally getting everything tidied up, there was hardly anyone around.

As darkness fell, the girls from the brothel who had been there earlier hurried over.

"I won't watch it today! Maybe next time!"

Mu Huaisheng didn't even look up, his mind blank as he spoke.

Suddenly, I felt a pang of regret:

I forgot to ask where his uncle's house is!

Let them go back first after the grain harvest is finished.

I can go and see if Qianyan is okay going back, and if she's used to it.

Ugh! This brain of mine!

In crucial moments, I always fail to think of everything!

Thinking this to myself, I punched my head.

"Doctor! Please don't do this."

We just wanted to ask if you have time to make house calls?

"My consultation fees are very high!"

Mu Huaisheng answered subconsciously.

"No problem, the prescriptions you two brothers wrote are better than others."

Mu Huaisheng snapped out of his daze, looked at the courtesans in front of him, and said seriously:

"It's not that my brother and I have the best prescription."

My brother and I prescribe the same medicine for everyone.

The girls fell silent for a moment after hearing this.

Mu Huaisheng then felt a little regretful.

These are all pitiful girls. I shouldn't have taken my anger out on them. I was just about to apologize.

"My ladies, you know better~"

"I'm sorry, ladies, I was a bit rash with my words just now."

My consultation fee is ten taels of silver.

If the ladies are interested, please leave your address and let us know why you need to use the restroom tomorrow!

"We are from the Moon Red Pavilion on the banks of the Qinhuai River."

After speaking, he glanced at Mu Huaisheng and saw that her expression remained unchanged.

"Would the doctor be available at noon tomorrow?"

"Okay, I understand!"

I will be making my rounds at noon tomorrow.

I only see the doctor and prescribe medicine; the patient has to get the medicine themselves.

"Great! Great! Great! That's wonderful..."

Thank you, doctor! Thank you, doctor!

Mu Huaisheng didn't say much to them.

As I turned to leave, I saw Wu Shishuai waiting in the distance, and a warm feeling welled up in my heart.

"Master, where is Young Master Qianyan?"

"I ran into his family while I was on a house call, and they took him home!"

"I've never heard of this in all these years~"

What about his sister?

"They didn't mention it, and as an outsider, I shouldn't say too much."

He was his uncle; Qianyan said he had followed him.

Put the silver note away; it was given to Qianyan by her uncle.

"It won't be useful even if we go back; we'll just exchange it for gold and take it with us."

"Will he come back?"

He told me that he would definitely come back if he had the chance in the future, and he probably will.

All good things must come to an end; just live well!

When gathering information in the evening, Mu Huaisheng found it difficult to keep up mentally.

He then recounted the events of his day in a disjointed and incoherent manner.

He also said that he caught a chill today and should rest early, as he would have to make house calls tomorrow at noon.

Seeing this, Pingbo didn't ask any further questions and simply said:

"From now on, let Xiao Wu go out with Huai Sheng."

Mu Huaisheng reluctantly agreed and went to wash up and rest.

I had dreams all night, and my mind is a complete mess.

When I woke up the next morning, my mind was completely blank.

Before making the house call, I took two calming pills.

Upon arriving at the Qinhuai River, we found the Yuehonglou (Moon Red Pavilion) among a row of closed buildings.

The martial arts master knocked on the door, and immediately a young pimp enthusiastically opened it, chanting a prayer:

"Excuse me, are you the doctor who saw me?"

"Exactly!"

After Mu Huaisheng answered, the pimp politely welcomed him inside.

Upon entering, a strong smell of cosmetics filled the air.

Inside, there's an indoor corridor, and in the adjacent hall, there are about twenty tables surrounding the performance stage.

It has three floors in total, all constructed with mortise and tenon joints.

Ancient houses were much smaller than those shown on television later on.

Its actual size is similar to that of those old costume dramas from the 70s and 80s.

However, this building is already considered quite large for this street.
