Chapter 313: Curing A Crippled Arm
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
After a long time, Liu Sanniang said slowly, “Let’s go to Yuqiong Pavilion again tonight.”
Wei Shilai nodded. “Okay.”
When Wei Shilai returned to the Xuanyi mansion, he heard the servants in the middle of a heated discussion. When they saw Wei Shilai, they immediately shut up. Wei Shilai asked with a cold face. “What are you talking about?”
The servant lowered his head and replied. “Sir, Miss Miao Yin is really amazing. The commander’s wife always had difficulty walking, but after going to Yuqiong Pavilion, she can walk like a normal person.”
With such miracles being performed, Yuqiong Pavilion instantly became a holy place. If a person who couldn’t walk could be cured, what about other diseases?
Wei Shilai frowned. “I don’t care who you work for. SInce you are here under my roof, you have to abide by my rules. I won’t let anyone who violates the rules off easily. As the person in charge of the Xuanyi mansion, I have the right to punish those who offend me.”
The servants were trembling in fear. Wei Shilai had always been good-tempered, and everyone secretly thought that he was a pushover.
However, when he flared up, he was quite intimidating.
After Wei Shilai left with a dark face, the servants stopped discussing the matter.
When Wei Shilai returned to the main courtyard, Mrs. Wei quickly poured him a cup of tea. Wei Shilai’s tone softened unconsciously. “You know me best. If I don’t drink some cool tea to calm down, I’m afraid I’ll explode with anger.”
Mrs. Wei walked behind Wei Shilai and gently massaged his shoulders. “What did Miss Liu say?”
Wei Shilai sighed. “Miss Liu didn’t seem to have expected this to happen. She said that she would go to Yuqiong Pavilion again tonight.”
Mrs. Wei’s hand paused. She was thinking to herself that if Miss Liu didn’t expect this either, then did it mean that there were some things that she couldn’t see through.
Feeling that the hands on his shoulder had stopped moving, Wei Shilai said, “Massage my shoulders for a bit longer.”
Madam Wei smiled and continued to press his shoulders. He couldn’t help but let out a long yawn. Madam Wei said gently, “If you’re tired, sleep for a while.”
Wei Shilai remembered that he had to go to Yuqiong Pavilion tonight and would probably stay up late, so he went to rest and quickly fell asleep.
Mrs. Wei quietly went out. She clenched her fists. If a person who couldn’t walk could stand up after being cured, then her infertility could probably be cured too.
In just a few hours, the news of Miss Miao Yin’s miraculous healing ability spread throughout the capital. As Mrs. Wei walked out of the mansion, the servant couldn’t help but ask. “Madam, are you going out?”
Mrs. Wei nodded. “I have something to do, but if Minister Wei asks about where I am, tell him that I went to buy groceries.”
The servant lowered his head. “Yes.”
As soon as Mrs. Wei left, a servant left the mansion and quickly headed towards a direction.
Xia Hongming was also surprised that Miao Yin suddenly started saving people. He wanted to ask Miao Yin to come and see him, but after thinking about it, he didn’t do so. Miao Yin was his woman, so her doing good deeds would also help him. However, on the other hand, he was afraid that he would be affected if this turned out to be a disaster.
Therefore, he decided to wait and see for now.
He was an extremely careful person who never made a wrong move.
The guard rushed into the main hall and knelt down to Xia Hongming. “Master, Mrs. Wei went to Yuqiong Pavilion without telling Minister Wei.”
Xia Hongming raised his eyebrows. “Mrs. Wei?”
The guard nodded. “Yes, Mrs. Wei is infertile and only has one daughter. She probably wants Miss Miao Yin to treat her infertility.”
Xia Hongming smiled. “I’ve tried to recruit Wei Shilai a few times, but he turned me down every time. Go to Yuqiong Pavilion and tell Miao Yin to treat her. If she was cured, I don’t believe Wei Shilai would refuse me again.”
The guard went away to carry out the order.
Xia Hongming smiled and was in a good mood. Women were very different from men. Wei Shilai had never touched the women he gave him. From this, it could be seen that Wei Shilai did not care about looks. He was a man who valued loyalty.
However, Mrs. Wei was different. She was a woman and was troubled by her inability to give Wei Shilai a son to pass down the family line. Even if there was a slim chance, she did not want to miss it. However, it was difficult to treat infertility. Now that there was someone who claimed to be able to treat everything, Mrs. Wei was naturally tempted.
Xia Hongming didn’t know how capable Miao Yin was, but no matter how capable she was, she was working for him.
Outside Yuqiong Pavilion, there was a crowd of people already.
The bawd smiled and was wild with joy as she shoved the money into her pocket.
This used to be a red light district, but now it had become a sacred place where people were saved.
Mrs. Wei got out of the carriage in a corner. She did not want to be seen.
She was actually still a little hesitant about coming. Her husband was investigating Miao Yin now, so logically speaking, she was supposed to stand by his side.
However, she was sorely tempted by Miao Yin’s miraculous ability. On instinct, she placed her hands on her stomach.
At this moment, a one-armed man came over on horseback. His rough and deep shout made people subconsciously move aside to make way for him.
He dismounted. “I want to see Miss Miao Yin.”
The bawd was frightened by him. When she came back to her senses, she said with a smile, “G-General Fu. Are you here to be treated by Miss Miao Yin? This, this…”
People who had been treated by Miao Yin so far were all able-bodied. Fu Gui’s one arm was crippled and useless. Could this be treated too?
The bawd was a little uncertain and did not dare to answer.
Miao Yin’s gentle voice came from upstairs. “Let General Fu in.”
The bawd thought for a moment and let him walk past her. She was also looking forward to seeing if this crippled hand could be cured.
Fu Gui’s eyes were dark as he entered. Everyone craned their necks and waited quietly for the results.
Mrs. Wei’s heart tightened. She thought to herself that if Miao Yin failed to treat him, she would leave and pretend that she had never been here.
But if even a crippled hand could be cured, she had to give it a try too.
Everyone waited quietly and was certain that if Fu Gui could not be cured, with his temper, he would probably be furious and kick up a fuss.
However, a few minutes later, a scream came from upstairs, making people’s hearts skip a beat. After the scream, there was complete silence.
