Chapter 1032 The Secret of the Xiahou Family

Wei Ting took a few steps forward, blocked Su Xiaoxiao behind him, and greeted the other party's death-like gaze with a cold expression.

Xia Houyi's gaze stayed on Wei Ting's face after the disguise.

"Second Uncle."

At this time, Xia Houqing also came to the wheelchair, bowed and pulled up the slightly slippery thick blanket on his body, "It's so cold outside, why did you come out?"

Su Xiaoxiao looked at Xia Houyi from behind Wei Ting.

He is afraid of the cold.

But with such a weak body, it is not surprising that I am afraid of the cold.

Seeing that Xia Houyi didn't answer herself, but turned to look at Duanmuyun in Baihua Palace, Xia Houqing then introduced: "Second Uncle, he is Duanmuyun, Yunshuang's son, and his wife is standing behind."

After he finished speaking, he said to Su Xiaoxiao and Wei Ting, "He is my second uncle."

Wei Ting cupped his hands and bowed: "Second Grandpa."

He has a correct attitude and a gentle tone, as if the eye contact just now did not exist.

Su Xiaoxiao also came over to say hello.

Xia Houqing said to the two of them: "My second uncle has some difficulty in speaking."

Actually, he didn't need to explain to Su Xiaoxiao and Wei Ting, the two of them knew each other well, he was looking at Ling Yun's face.

"Second Uncle, I'll push you in."

Xia Houqing personally pushed Xia Houyi into the house.

This is the bedroom. It is very spacious, not luxurious, and it exudes a simple woody fragrance everywhere.

Entering the door is a large landscape screen, and his Babu bed is behind the screen.

The right-hand side is used as a study room, with desks and bookshelves, and several landscape paintings of the island are hung.

Su Xiaoxiao's eyes fell on a big bow hanging on the wall.

Grandma Nie said seemingly unintentionally: "When the Second Great Master was young, he was a good archer and was very good at riding and shooting."

Xia Houqing also nodded when she heard this: "That's right, it's a pity that my second uncle has never touched a bow and arrow since he got sick."

Xia Houqing pushed Xia Houyi behind the screen, but Xia Houyi was unwilling to lie down on the bed.

"Just feel the pulse like this."

Xia Houqing said to Mr. Qiu and Granny Nie.

Old Qiu went to take Xia Houyi's pulse first, and also checked his body.

Meanwhile, his clothes need to be removed.

Xia Houyi seemed numb for a long time, and was not ashamed of showing herself without dignity in front of others.

Su Xiaoxiao is a doctor, so there is nothing to be embarrassed about.

Xia Houqing looked at Su Xiaoxiao in surprise.

The folk customs of Qianshan Island are different from those of Dazhou and other countries. There are many sects here, and there are many women who don't care about trivial matters.

But at Su Xiaoxiao's age, it is really rare to be so calm.

Xia Houyi is only in her early fifties, younger than Qiu Lao and Granny Nie, but she looks as if she is about to die.

After Su Xiaoxiao came to another world, it was the first time he saw such a thin and decayed body.

It's hard to imagine that such a body hides a huge ambition to deal with the Wei family.

Could it be that I made a mistake?

Su Xiaoxiao muttered secretly.

No.

Don't be fooled by appearances.

But I still can't figure it out, why did he deal with the Wei family?

Changing his thinking, what benefits can he get from dealing with the Wei family?

Su Xiaoxiao couldn't figure it out.

She looked sideways at Wei Ting inadvertently, but found that Wei Ting was concentrating on the landscape painting on the wall.

At this time, Su Xiaoxiao's advantage appeared.

She came to Xia Houqing's side with an obedient face, and said softly: "My elder brother likes to collect antique paintings very much. I didn't expect the second grandpa to like it too."

Everything can be Lingyun!

Xia Houqing immediately became interested: "These paintings are not antiques. My second uncle liked to travel around the island when he was young, and he would paint them when he encountered beautiful scenery along the way."

Su Xiaoxiao glanced at Wei Ting from the corner of her eye, with a look of admiration on her face: "It turned out to be a painting by the Second Great Master, it's really good!"

Wei Ting is not a doctor, so he doesn't have to stay by the bed.

He simply walked to the portrait generously.

Xia Houqing didn't say anything.

After Mr. Qiu finished the inspection, it was the ghost mother-in-law's turn.

"come over."

Grandma Nie to Su Xiaoxiao.

"Yes, mother-in-law!"

Su Xiaoxiao put the medicine box on the stool, took a handkerchief and put it under Xia Houqing's wrist.

Grandma Nie felt her pulse and said to Su Xiaoxiao, "You also come and see."

"yes."

Su Xiaoxiao squatted down and rested her fingertips on Xia Houyi's wrist.

She clearly felt that Xia Houyi was staring at her.

The feeling of being watched by the dead came again.

Su Xiaoxiao has faced many powerful enemies, but no one has given her such a chilly feeling.

She got rid of distracting thoughts and concentrated on taking Xia Houyi's pulse.

His pulse showed that the oil lamp was exhausted, and no amount of medicine could barely keep him alive.

His depletion is irreversible.

Perhaps this is the scary part of this disease.

Once you get sick, you can only wait to die.

And what is more tormenting is that this disease will make people ache all over.

Old Qiu looked at Su Xiaoxiao calmly.

He has experienced Su Xiaoxiao's medical skills, not under him and Nie Jinfeng.

Su Xiaoxiao shook her head slightly.

She hasn't figured out what kind of illness Xia Houyi is suffering from yet.

"There are rumors that this is a curse."

After came out, Granny Nie spoke to Su Xiaoxiao.

Grandma Nie came to the next room on the grounds that she wanted to discuss the treatment with Mr. Qiu.

Su Xiaoxiao accompanied him.

"Curse?" Su Xiaoxiao didn't understand.

Grandma Nie said: "When I first arrived at Nie's house, Nie Yangshan's grandfather was still alive, and unfortunately the former city lord also fell ill. A doctor offered to go out to find medicine for him, and Nie Yangshan's grandfather was with him as a guard. They left Qianshan Island. In the process of searching for the medicine, they heard some secrets. The ancestors of the Xiahou family betrayed the monarch and were cursed by the national teacher. Since then, the Xiahou family has suffered from strange diseases for generations."

"Is this rumor a bit too absurd?"

Su Xiaoxiao does not believe in curses.

But Xiahou's family betrayed the monarch... This is a bit interesting.

There is no monarch on Qianshan Island.

If the rumors are true, who was the ancestor of the Xiahou family who betrayed? Which country's monarch?

Of course, it is also possible that none of these rumors are true.

Grandma Nie said to Old Qiu: "I have nothing to do, you can figure it out."

Old Qiu hummed, wrote a new prescription, and gave it to Xia Houqing.

At the same time, he took out a bottle of sedative medicine from his bosom, saying that it was given by Grandma Nie, which could relieve Xia Houyi's pain at night.

Xia Houqing said to Granny Nie who also came back here: "Thank you, Granny."

Grandma Nie said: "Let's go first, the city lord and the second grandpa take care."

Old Qiu also wanted to leave.

Xia Houqing said: "It's rare for Elder Qiu to come back, so let's stay at the mansion for a few more days, so that I can treat my second uncle's illness."

Old Qiu looked at Su Xiaoxiao resentfully.

Su Xiaoxiao pursed her lips, and silently waved at Old Qiu.

Before leaving, she noticed that Xia Houyi was staring at her again, and turned her head to look at Xia Houyi.

At this time, Xia Houyi suddenly moved her lips, and said a word to Su Xiaoxiao with her lips.

It's coming to an end, and I'm a bit stuck. Every day, I jump back and forth between finishing it as soon as possible and writing more.
