Rebirth: My Healer Wife Owns Superpowers

Chapter 93: Chapter 93: A Perfect Match with the Young Master!

Qi Yue instantly realized what it felt like to say something that couldn’t be taken back.

With no alternatives, she ultimately had to visit the residence of the Prefectural Magistrate Hu.

As expected from the person who held the power of life and death over the entirety of Longnan County, the estate was frighteningly large.

Upon entering, there was a large boulder carved into a wall relief, flanked by symmetrical paths of flowers and plants.

The fragrant aromas of flowers and fresh grass hit her face.

Guided by Housekeeper Yue, Qi Yue took the right path and passed through two courtyards, a long corridor, and after rounding three corners, she arrived at a very large courtyard.

Before she even entered, she heard Huang Zai’an’s hearty laughter.

“Rest assured, Magistrate Hu. With your son’s leg under my care, and if all else fails, my disciple is even more skilled than I am!”

Qi Yue silently twitched the corners of her lips.

Now that her task was over and she had taken what she needed, could she ignore this master of hers?

Upon entering the courtyard, she indeed saw several people sitting in the main hall..

Hu Chengxuan sat in a senior position while Hu Keqing accompanied Huang Zai’an sitting below.

After the initial greetings, Zhang Fang presented a small white stone to Hu Chengxuan for inspection.

Hu Chengxuan glanced at it briefly before handing it to Huang Zai’an.

“Master Huang, this object looks quite unremarkable. How can it replace the White Rhino Horn to heal my son’s leg?”

Huang Zai’an took the object, looked at Qi Yue with a weird expression, and then chuckled dryly a few times.

“Magistrate Hu can rest easy. With this, your son will surely be able to stand.”

At that moment, Zhang Fang suddenly stepped forward and whispered something into Hu Chengxuan’s ear.

Hu Chengxuan’s eyes immediately widened then returned to normal, his face noticeably relaxed.

He glanced at Qi Yue and said cheerfully, “In that case, let’s commence as soon as possible. My son has longed to stand up.”

It was decided that they would officially start the treatment the next day.

Throughout this time, Qi Yue remained silent. If it were up to her, she would start the treatment that evening, finish it, and return home.

No, that place was no longer her home.

While listening to Huang Zai’an prattling on endlessly with Hu Chengxuan, she felt annoyed, but then a voice suddenly rang in her ears.

“Doctor Qi?”

She immediately turned around, meeting a pair of smiling, bushy-eyed eyes.

There was an intensity in Hu Keqing’s eyes that she dared not meet, and she quickly moved back a little.

“Does Young Master Hu need something?” she asked, expressionless.

“Yes.” Ignoring her distance, Hu Keqing moved his wheelchair forward a step, his gaze pressing closer.

“Doctor Qi has taken efforts this time. Once I can stand, I definitely must thank you properly.”

“Young Master Hu needn’t be polite. I am simply fulfilling my master’s request,” Qi Yue said, subtly nudging Huang Zai’an.

Fortunately, the old man caught on and immediately took over the conversation.

“My disciple is right, treating Young Master Hu is our duty. You shouldn’t worry about it.”

At that moment, Housekeeper Yue returned, stating that dinner was ready.

Hu Chengxuan immediately invited them to a place called Fuyun Pavilion for the meal, but Qi Yue excused herself, explaining she needed to handle the medicine she brought back urgently or it might lose its effectiveness, thus managing to escape.

Qi Yue had a natural aversion to banquets, as had been the case in her previous life.

The look in Hu Keqing’s eyes truly made her uncomfortable.

If he hadn’t been clothed in the status of a Prefectural Magistrate’s son and a war hero, Qi Yue would have really plucked out his eyeballs, stomped them back to normal, and then placed them back.

It was terrifying.

Only after returning to the courtyard arranged by Housekeeper Yue did Qi Yue free herself from those unpleasant emotions.

After closing the door, entering her private space, taking a bath, changing clothes, and lying on the large bed, she felt this place seemed even more real than the outside.

“Can’t go back now, can I!”

She murmured to herself, but then her gaze fell on the divorce paper lying nearby.

She couldn’t help but pick it up and carefully read the verses written on it.

Separation

Relations of life and death, different from past times

Beside the dressing table

A smile, I wish I were mad

Red Bean Lady

Before the wooden clapper is struck, the voice is already hoarse

Gold Thread Connection

Your heart wishes to die like silkworms in their cocoon

“…what a line, ‘A smile has made me a fool…'”

She snorted, initially wanted to tear it to shreds, but remembering that it was bought with her ten silver coins, she carefully stored it in a nearby cabinet.

She then made herself a bowl of red date and glutinous rice sweet soup in the kitchen and went to the yard to look for the White Rhino.

These past days, busy with traveling, she had hardly paid it any attention.

After a walk around, she finally spotted something like white jade wriggling in the vegetable patch by the creek; seeing her, the creature immediately left the patch, wagging its head and mooing incessantly around her.

Qi Yue caressed its velvety skin and asked, “Want an apple?”

“Moo~”

“You sure are picky…”

She reached over its head and plucked some fruit from a nearby tree.

Although the White Rhino was large, it did not have a long trunk like an elephant.

After picking a few, she remembered she could control the objects around her, so she walked back to the pavilion, lay down on a rocking chair, and amusingly played with this trick.

Bright red apples fell one after another, quickly covering the ground.

The White Rhino mooed continuously, half in surprise and half in joy.

It probably didn’t understand why the apples were falling on their own.

“Eat up, once you’re full, I’ll slaughter you for medicine.”

“Moo~”

As the human and rhino enjoyed their time together, suddenly someone knocked on the door from outside.

“Doctor Qi, Doctor Qi.”

Hearing that it was the maid who had brought her here, Qi Yue exited the space and opened the door.

In the doorway stood two maids carrying food boxes, with Hu Keqing behind them.

The moment she saw this person, Qi Yue’s pupils uncontrollably shrank.

Could this person not sense others’ facial expressions?

She was clearly being so cold…

“Doctor Qi, I didn’t know what you liked to eat, so I had them bring a bit of everything…”

Hu Keqing introduced with a smile, but Qi Yue didn’t let him finish, taking the food boxes from the maids’ hands.

“Thank you, Young Master Hu, I’m at a critical moment in my medicine making, I can’t chat with you now.”

After speaking, she immediately shut the door.

“Bang.”

The shut-out Hu Keqing forced a smile.

“I…”

He hadn’t eaten either, having come specifically to dine with Qi Yue…

“Young Master, should we knock again?” asked a maid nearby.

“No, go find Zhang Fang.”

“Yes.”

Hearing no more noise outside, Qi Yue couldn’t help but twitch the corner of her lips.

This Young Master Hu seemed like a decent man, a far cry from his father. But why was he always pushing her to do things?

The meals from the Prefecture Magistrate’s Office were decent enough. Although Qi Yue had already eaten, she still tried a bit of everything.

Meanwhile, in the yard separated by just a wall, Hu Keqing and Zhang Fang were sitting opposite each other.

The table before them was laden with an abundance of food and drink, yet neither had touched their chopsticks.

“Big Brother Zhang, tell me in detail about everything on the road,” Hu Keqing urged with his large eyes gleaming.

Zhang Fang teased with a smile.

“The Young Master wants to know about Doctor Qi, right!”

A suspicious blush crept onto Hu Keqing’s face.

“Of course, it’s about everything.”

“Young Master, no need to hide it, anyone can tell from your expression.”

Embarrassed, Hu Keqing lowered his head, “…is it really that obvious?”

“What’s there to fear?” Zhang Fang laughed heartily, “Graceful ladies attract gallant gentlemen. Doctor Qi is extraordinary, a perfect match for the Young Master!”

“But I find Doctor Qi rather cold…”

“Young Master, you don’t know, Doctor Qi is like that with everyone. You haven’t seen how Qu Wei tried to woo her on the journey, only to be left looking shabby and embarrassed…”
