Chapter 185: with translation of chapter title

~7 min read 1,277 words

Silence.

Silence.

Deathly silence.

Before her stood a solemn-faced Hei Lao Daifu; behind her, gazes continually swept over her back.

Du Shanü's hairs stood on end all over; she tried to summon all her wit to no avail, and could only grit her teeth and say:

"There's no such thing; I've been chaste for a long time......"

As her words fell, a short, cold laugh came from behind:

"Heh."

Without turning back, Du Shanü knew it must be her slave-slave again, eyes not meeting, noses not matching......

But this time, she couldn't coax him, really couldn't coax him.

Du Shanü swore to heaven that in her two lifetimes combined, she had never been so nervous.

Hei Lao Daifu's expression was exactly as expected; he then twisted his whiskers, dipped his brush in ink, and put pen to paper——

【Patient avoids mentioning illness and shuns medicine】 six big characters.

Du Shanü: "......."

Du Shanü: "(? `? Д? ′)!!"

This, this is so blunt!?

Immediately, he again opened his mouth to ask:

"Fine, I believe you."

"Then how would you describe this 'chastity' as being 'chaste'?"

"About what time of day do you engage in intercourse, and how frequent?"

Du Shanü, weak and breathless, wanted to make a last-ditch effort for her reputation:

"There really is no such thing."

"Damn it, I've clearly been living on clear broth and little water, yet somehow rumors have sprung up......"

Hei Lao Daifu's brush paused; he still didn't write the prescription, but instead added four more characters after those just written——

【...... Stubborn resistance】

Du Shanü: "━━∑( ̄□ ̄*|||━━"

No, Hei Lao Daifu!

Don't say these things in front of so many people!!!

This time, Du Shanü even heard Ouyang Yan behind her give a meaningful laugh.

Cold sweat trickled down Du Shanü's back; she didn't dare turn her head, nor dare to glance at the bewildered Yu Baobao beside her who seemed to sense something.

Hei Lao Daifu finished the last stroke, then nodded:

"Fine, I believe you."

But this way, I don't know how effective the prescription I'm giving you today will be; perhaps it still needs to be combined with abstinence......

By the way, can you endure abstinence while taking the medicine? 【True abstinence】, not the 【chastity】 you just mentioned.

Du Shanü: "......"

Hei Lao Daifu's ink brush hovered high; obviously, as soon as Du Shanü answers, he will put pen to paper to record.

Du Shanü wanted to speak but held back, Du Shanü remained silent, Du Shanü's heart flooded with tears.

After that instant, only one sentence remained in her mind——

Doctor, doctor!

Must I really die today!?

The atmosphere was not merely awkward.

Du Shanü was also genuinely afraid that Hei Lao Daifu would put pen to paper and write something strange.

Having been made a mess by this, she cleverly rose and said:

"I seem to have a nosebleed again......."

"Hei Wawa, does your backyard have clean water? I'll go wash off this blood, then come back for the consultation."

Never mind.

Whether you say she avoids mentioning illness and shuns medicine, or say she puts up a stubborn resistance,

In short, she can't stay here any longer!

Otherwise, she'll really lose face from now on!

Under the gaze of everyone, Du Shanü rushed into the backyard as if fleeing.

She carefully washed her face, then the stains on her sleeves, and after simmering for about two incense sticks' time, she finally poked her head forward to walk toward the front shop.

In the pharmacy, there was no trace of Ouyang Yan and A Chou; only four people remained.

Hei Wawa was instructing Yu Baobao on various daily precautions, while Chinu stood by the counter, lowering his voice to tell Hei Lao Daifu what this was.

Du Shanü breathed a great sigh of relief, sneaking up close to the two behind her, and then heard what they were actually saying——

"...... You youngster, are you really not deceiving me......?"

"Really not...... Before that, for three days...... day and night drinking...... upon waking from drink, sleep; upon waking, drink......"

"?"

"These past few days have eased somewhat; six or seven sets at night...... one or two sets in the morning......"

"???"

Hei Lao Daifu has seen no scene......

Hei Lao Daifu obviously really hasn't seen this scene.

After the old man was shocked, his white beard trembled; he let out a long sigh, then grabbed a handful of medicine and put it into the scale's pan.

"You young people... although your bodies are fine, you still need to practice moderation!"

"No wonder you have some dark circles lately; you must not be getting enough sleep... sigh..."

This nagging, even though Du Shanü is thick-skinned like a city wall, she couldn't help but feel like collapsing.

Having heard enough, she felt too embarrassed to keep listening, so she went back to find Yu Baobao.

Yu Baobao had just finished noting down the instructions when he felt something restraining his waist; turning around, he couldn't help but feel a surge of joy.

Wife Master (〃'▽'〃)!

Hei Lao Daifu said you have nothing serious, is that true?

Whether there's something wrong or not, if there is, we can't say it outright this time!

Du Shanü felt rather embarrassed and had to ask:

"What is Hei Wawa instructing? Could it be that your eyes are uncomfortable again?"

Yu Baobao's previous eye ailment was somewhat serious, but fortunately Hei Lao Daifu's skillful hands brought about a springback, which also relieved his predicament.

If it recurs in the future...

No!

Yu Baobao clung to his Wife Master, though he was a head taller than Du Shanü, he still leaned his head against her shoulder like a little bird depending on a person.

After Wife Master left, Hei Lao Daifu lost his temper, saying he wanted to reverse-diagnose from the husband's side, asking who is Wife Master's husband...

So he naturally went up happily! o(*^▽^*)┛

However, Hei Lao Daifu examined him for half a day, yet still didn't write anything down, only bringing up again the matter of re-examining his eye ailment...

Du Shanü couldn't hold back and lightly coughed twice.

Yu Baobao seemed to sense something, and hurriedly went to check if his Wife Master felt any discomfort elsewhere.

That day the sunshine was just right, the sun was just shining on the waves.

The shimmering golden fragments passed over the gentle youth's gaze, just meeting Du Shanü's eyes, causing even the myriad sounds to fall silent.

Du Shanü's heart softened; she reached out and grasped a strand of Yu Baobao's hair beside his cheek, winding it behind his ear.

Yu Baobao's eyes held a smile, but his breath was scorching; Du Shanü was about to speak when together they heard a familiar voice:

Hmph!

Yu Baobao: "We're doomed, Chinu is coming again! (? `? Д? ′)!!"

Yu Baobao: "He's definitely angry again, wanting to sell us all for three cash per catty, six cash for two catties!"

Du Shanü: "...... (? `? Д? ′)!!"

Wait, wait.

Yu Baobao, what nonsense is this again!

One catty for three cash, two catties could only be five cash, otherwise who would buy!

No, that's wrong, I got it mixed up.

What she should be thinking is, why is Chinu angry again!

Isn't it only natural for them to be all lovey-dovey?

What could Chinu possibly be angry about!

Is this right? Is this really right?

Chinu looked at the two people embracing in front of him, not knowing what he thought of, a faint smile appeared at the corner of his mouth, and he let out another hum.

"...... Separate."

The doctor said, she must abstain.

You two, from now on sleep separately.

?? Come, little treasures, let's shout together—overturn the heavenly net!
