Chapter 46: Waking up from Her Dream
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
It was too sudden. The silly puppy was shocked.
“Lingyao, stretch out your hand and let Sister take a look at it, okay?” Her voice was as gentle as the Grandma Wolf coaxing Little Red Riding Hood!
However, her husky was very obedient. Although he did not understand what she meant, he still stretched out his hand.
Afraid that one hand was not enough, he threw the rabbit away and placed both hands in front of her.
“Good boy!” Liu Shimei praised him and then pressed her hand on his wrist to feel his pulse.
Saying those words woke her from her dream!
Previously, she had only thought that this silly dog was her fiance and that she would raise him as her son in the future. However, she had actually gone to a dead end. She had never expected that she retain her medical skills from her previous life!
His brain was damaged when he was young, but he was very smart. His speech was very organized and his logical thinking was online, which proved that his brain was not damaged!
Perhaps she could cure him!
“Wife, what are you doing?”
Huangfu Lingyao looked at her in confusion.
Liu Shimei checked his pulse. Her excited mood slowly calmed down and she frowned.
She looked at his face and asked, “Lingyao, did you drink medicine often in the past? How many doctors have you seen? What did the doctor say?”
Even though she thought that it would be strange if he could remember, she could not help but ask.
Usually, Huangfu Lingyao did not bring a personal attendant or anything. He was always alone. Even if there were people serving him, he probably did not put in any effort and came and went.
Therefore, she did not know who to ask about his situation.
However, it did not matter. She was the fiancee and did not have the right to ask. However, after she married into Prince Dun Yu’s Residence, she should be able to check about her husband’s illness at the Imperial Academy of Medicine.
As expected, Huangfu Lingyao did not know anything. He only said, “In the past, I drank a lot of medicine. They lied to me and said that it wasn’t bitter. They made me drink it, but it was smelly and bitter. They didn’t even give me candy to eat. I hate them, so I beat them! After that, they stopped giving me medicine!”
As he spoke, he looked at Liu Shimei with a smug expression, as if he was worthy of praise for being able to beat someone up.
Liu Shimei’s lips twitched.
Could it be that she had brought him to fight with her yesterday and had led him to think that fighting was a good thing?
She still put her mind on his silly illness. She could not see anything wrong with his pulse, so it was not difficult to understand why the Imperial Academy of Medicine would give up treatment.
Unfortunately, there was no equipment in this era that could take a picture of his brain. There was no way to find out what was wrong with him that caused him to be stupid.
“Have you ever fallen on your head before?” she asked. “Did you knock your head? Or have you been beaten in the head?”
“I don’t remember.” he shook his head and said.
Liu Shimei had no choice but to let go of his hand. She grabbed the rabbit and placed it in his hand. “Why don’t you continue feeding the rabbit?”
She turned her head back to brew the medicine and continued to think about this problem. When could she find a suitable reason to enter the palace to inquire about his situation?
Huangfu Lingyao looked at her suspiciously, but he did not ask anything. After a while, his attention was diverted by the rabbit.
After Mo’er brought this rabbit back yesterday, she listened to Liu Shimei and washed its fur. It still looked very ugly, but at least it was not dirty anymore.
“Wife, this rabbit doesn’t have a name yet!” The silly dog suddenly had a new way of playing. “Can you give it a name?”
Liu Shimei turned to look at the bald bunny. Her intuition asked her to name it ‘Bald Rabbit’!
However, before she could speak, the silly puppy asked as if he was presenting a treasure, “It can’t speak. Can you call it ‘Little Mute’?”
Liu Shimei was speechless.
It might as well be called Bald Rabbit!
However, she could not be calculative with a five-year-old child and should respect the child’s creativity. Therefore, she agreed readily. “Alright, I’ll listen to you. I’ll call him Little Mute!”
After receiving respect, Huangfu Lingyao was happy again as if he had eaten candy.
“Wife, you’re so nice!”
Liu Shimei could not help but laugh.
So, being willing to play with rabbits with him, and being willing to accept the unbelievable name he gave the rabbit, was good to him?
A child was a child!
She turned around and continued to work. She did not notice that although Huangfu Lingyao’s gaze was on the bald rabbit in his hand, his peripheral vision swept over the medicinal herbs on the table, and then swept over the stone mortar in Liu Shimei’s hand. He was deep in thought.
He was probably lost in thought, and in a moment of ruthlessness, he pulled the rabbit fur again!
Little Mute was in so much pain that he jumped away and became even more bald!
Liu Shimei crushed all the herbs into powder and carefully placed them into a bottle that he had prepared beforehand. He then got Mo’er to tidy up all the herbs on the table. The afternoon was about to pass.
She was about to persuade Huangfu Lingyao to return to the Royal Mansion when she heard footsteps outside the door.
From the sound of it, it was definitely not just two or three people, but a large group!
