As soon as she got off the ox cart, Su Li saw a familiar figure.

“Physician Su…” Sun Ming stood at the entrance of the street and waved at Su Li excitedly.

Sun Ming knew that Su Li was coming today, so he waited here early in the morning, afraid that Su Li would not remember the way and go elsewhere. Su Li quickly walked up to Sun Ming. “I know the way. You don’t have to wait for me.

Sun Ming scratched the back of his head and chuckled. “Anyway, I don’t have anything to do. I originally wanted to pick you up, but unfortunately, the carriage broke down yesterday and hasn’t been repaired.”

Su Li said, “It’s fine. Our village has an ox cart. It’s the same if I take an ox cart.” Sun Ming led Su Li towards the Sun residence.

When she passed by the wonton stall, a fragrance wafted into Su Li’s nose. Su Li couldn’t help but stop in her tracks. This smell was causing her to have a craving.

Su Li turned to look at Sun Ming. “Have you eaten?”

Sun Ming shook his head. “Not yet!”

He had run over early in the morning to wait for Su Li, not even willing to delay his meal.

“Then I’ll treat you to a bowl of wontons.”

With that, Su Li sat in front of the wonton stall and ordered two bowls of wontons.

It wasn’t that she was greedy, but Sun Ming hadn’t eaten. She couldn’t possibly watch from the side when she treated others to food, right?

Yes, that was it!

Guan Xiyue stood in front of the courtyard door and waited, but Su Li was nowhere to be seen.

The maidservant persuaded, “Madam, why don’t you go in and sit? I’ll wait for

Physician Su here. When she comes, I’ll immediately bring her in.”

Guan Xiyue shook her head and refused. “It’s fine. I’d just wait.”

After waiting for a while, Su Li’s chubby figure appeared in Guan Xiyue’s line of sight.

“Physician Su, you’re finally here.” Guan Xiyue quickly stepped forward and grabbed Su Li’s hand.

Su Li was a little confused. What happened to cause her to be in such a hurry?

“Mrs. Sun, did something happen?” Su Li asked.

If nothing happened, why did Guan Xiyue look at her like a wolf seeing meat?

Seeing that she had caused Su Li to misunderstand, Guan Xiyue explained, “Nothing happened. I just saw that you hadn’t come at this hour and thought that something had happened to you on the way.”

Su Li explained, “I was delayed by something on the way just now!”

Sun Ming blinked. No wonder people always said that speaking was indeed an art. There was a living example in front of him.

Being delayed was equivalent to eating a bowl of wontons. I’ve learned it, I’ve learned it!

Guan Xiyue pulled Su Li into the house. “Let’s sit in the house for a while. Master went out to do something and will be back soon.”

“Alright.” Su Li nodded.

Guan Xiyue got someone to serve some fruits and snacks. As she had just eaten a bowl of wontons, Su Li was not hungry, so she was not interested in these things.

Guan Xiyue and Su Li started chatting.

“Physician Su, I heard that you’re married?”

Su Li nodded.

Until now, Su Li still didn’t understand how Su Li married He Yufeng. She didn’t remember this at all. She had been rather busy recently, so she didn’t have the time to ask about these things.

However, judging from the way they interacted, perhaps it was an arranged marriage? In this era, matchmakers were basically the ones pulling strings. Su Li touched her chin and felt that she had already guessed the truth.

Guan Xiyue smiled at Su Li and said, “Do you have a child?”

At the mention of the child, Su Li smiled. “A pair of twins. They’re already three and a half years old this year.”

Her words were slowly filled with pride.

Guan Xiyue’s face was filled with envy. “That’s great.”

“Your husband is really lucky to have married you. There are really too few capable and virtuous people like you.”

There were too few women studying medicine. Ordinary people were unwilling to take women as disciples. Unless they were very talented or their families had been studying medicine for generations, they would not have the chance to learn even if they wanted to.

Su Li smiled. “Old Master Sun is lucky to have married you. Look at how educated, virtuous, and dignified you are. I’m afraid I won’t be able to catch up even if I ride eight horses.”

Guan Xiyue sighed and opened her mouth, wanting to tell Su Li her troubles. She felt that only Su Li could help her solve this problem.

Before Guan Xiyue could speak, there was a commotion outside. She could not help but frown.

Guan Xiyue said to the maid behind her, “Go and see what’s going on. Why is it so noisy outside?”

The servant girl responded and turned to go out to check.

After a while, the maidservant returned. She looked at Guan Xiyue and wanted to say something but hesitated.

The maidservant said, “Madam, Old Madam is here. Just now, a little girl accidentally offended Old Madam and is being punished by Old Madam!” When Guan Xiyue heard the words “Old Madam”, her head buzzed.

What was her mother-in-law doing here at this time? In the past, if she wanted to come, she would inform them in advance to pick her up. It was rare for someone to come to her door like today.

Guan Xiyue smiled at Su Li. “Physician Su, sit down first. I’ll go out and take a look.”

Su Li nodded and said, “It’s fine. Go ahead.’

Guan Xiyue stood up and walked towards the door.

An old woman with a dignified expression walked over energetically and muttered.

Guan Xiyue went forward to support Old Madam Sun. “Mother, why are you here?”

Old Madam Sun glanced at her and said sarcastically, “Look at what you’re saying. Can’t I come? This is my son’s house. As his mother, do I need to report to you?”

She was very dissatisfied with this daughter-in-law who had not laid eggs for ten years.

It had been ten years. It was not a year or two, but a full ten years. Even if she raised an old hen, it was time to lay eggs. Her daughter-in-law’s stomach did not have any action at all. Every time she saw her, she would be angry.

Guan Xiyue hurriedly explained, “Mother, that’s not what I meant. I meant to send someone to tell me in advance the next time you come so that I can pick you up.”

If she hadn’t prepared in advance, her mother-in-law would have caused her ten thousand troubles at home.

Old Madam Sun clearly did not appreciate Guan Xiyue’s words. She felt that Guan Xiyue was very hypocritical and said impatiently, “Alright, put away your tricks. I can come whenever I want, what does this got to do with you?”

Guan Xiyue’s expression did not change, even though she had been humiliated in front of so many people.

Seeing that Guan Xiyue was silent, Old Madam Sun continued to stab her in the heart. “Don’t think that you’re the mistress of our family just because you’ve been married for ten years. If you continue not to give birth, I’ll get my son to divorce you sooner or later. There are three unfilial things. Having no descendants is the greatest. Don’t you understand this logic?”

Guan Xiyue, who was originally calm, turned pale when she heard this. Old Madam Sun looked at Guan Xiyue smugly. Fight with her? She had walked more paths than she had eaten salt.

Old Madam Sun asked, “I heard that the family invited a doctor?”
