Fu Xiaonan didn’t follow Mu Shuangshuang into the dical clinic; she waited outside.
But after Mu Shuangshuang ca out, she still inquisitively ca over and asked, "Shuangshuang, what were you inquiring about with the little dicine boy earlier? You seed so surprised!"
Mu Shuangshuang had no intention of telling Fu Xiaonan the truth, she only said, "I bought so blood tonics at the clinic and asked about how to use them. I previously thought those herbs didn’t need to be boiled, that they could be taken just by dissolving them in water!"
Mu Shuangshuang casually said this, referring to the thod of taking modern Western dicine by dissolving in water.
But this startled Fu Xiaonan, and she said:
"How could that be possible? All herbs need to be boiled! Shuangshuang, don’t you know that?"
Fu Xiaonan looked at Mu Shuangshuang with a cheerful smile.
In her heart, she felt triumphant, because finally, there was sothing Shuangshuang didn’t know that she did!
The two young girls chatted for a bit and then returned to the inn.
...
On the other side, Mu Dade had already planned how to switch his son to beco the County Magistrate’s son!
Ultimately, the County Magistrate had to be with Ruan Xiao Jiao!
So he shared his idea with Ruan Xiao Jiao, asking her to invite the man to her room tonight.
First, they would get the County Magistrate drunk, and then engage in so unspeakable activities with him.
Ruan Xiao Jiao was originally a concubine of the County Magistrate, so even if anything happened, it wouldn’t arouse his suspicion.
The only thing was, tonight’s events would have to be natural!
At dusk, Ruan Xiao Jiao’s personal maid, Taohua, went to invite the County Magistrate, saying that Ruan Xiao Jiao was unwell and hoped he would co to see her.
The County Magistrate indeed suspected nothing, put aside his work, and went to visit Ruan Xiao Jiao.
The County Magistrate was in his early forties this year, about ten years older than Ruan Xiao Jiao.
In appearance, he was average, nothing exceptional, and compared to Mu Dade, he was quite inferior.
But this man had his unique charm; he had managed the county affairs efficiently for over a decade.
Even thieves rarely appeared!
The Magistrate’s household was sparse, besides Ruan Xiao Jiao, he had only one wife and two concubines in total.
The household was peaceful, with no one vying for favor.
Moreover, since Ruan Xiao Jiao had never had children, even if the County Magistrate favored her more, the other two concubines didn’t find it inappropriate.
Tonight, to seduce the County Magistrate, Ruan Xiao Jiao wore a pink dress.
Having never given birth, she looked no less charming than a seventeen or eighteen-year-old girl in that color dress.
Moreover, Ruan Xiao Jiao had a unique purity about her, which the County Magistrate liked!
"Xiao Jiao, aren’t you sick? Why are you still sitting in the room, with the windows open, won’t it make you worse?"
As soon as the County Magistrate saw Ruan Xiao Jiao, he started speaking in a concerned tone.
He also approached her, starting to help Ruan Xiao Jiao up.
Ruan Xiao Jiao was very nervous; she hadn’t served the County Magistrate for a long ti.
"Master, I... I’m not sick, it’s just that I haven’t talked to you for so long, so I missed it!"
Ruan Xiao Jiao stamred out these words.
Unexpectedly, the County Magistrate was delighted.
The County Magistrate had always doted on Ruan Xiao Jiao, not for any particular reason, but because she was different from other won.
She had never expressed any affection for him in over a decade of marriage.
Even in that kind of situation, Ruan Xiao Jiao never showed much enthusiasm.
n are always like this; the harder it is to get, the more they like it!
Thus, Ruan Xiao Jiao’s behavior today took the County Magistrate by surprise.
"Xiao Jiao, you must be tired, let’s rest..." The County Magistrate, looking at the pink-clad Ruan Xiao Jiao, suddenly felt a rush of warmth.
Things went even more smoothly than Ruan Xiao Jiao anticipated, and soon the County Magistrate began to remove her clothes.
But for so reason, Mu Dade’s image flashed in her mind, and she no longer wanted to—
"Master, I’m so hungry, can we continue after we eat?" Ruan Xiao Jiao intentionally said in a soft voice.
The County Magistrate naturally had no objections.
As the County Magistrate tidied up his clothes, Ruan Xiao Jiao rushed out.
She went straight to the small kitchen where Taohua was.
Taohua was preparing food in the kitchen and couldn’t help but ask upon seeing the flustered Ruan Xiao Jiao, "Madam, why are you so anxious, did sothing happen?"
Ruan Xiao Jiao said nothing, she just looked at Taohua.
"Madam, my parents’ lives were saved by you; I’m your girl, and my indenture is in your hands, what is there not to trust about Taohua?" Taohua asked.
This sentence from Taohua made Ruan Xiao Jiao make up her mind!
"Taohua, do you want to get your indenture back and go back to take care of your parents?
Do you want your parents to never worry about food and clothing again in this lifeti?" Ruan Xiao Jiao asked.
Taohua hesitated; the things Ruan Xiao Jiao ntioned were things anyone would want!
But her indenture had been signed, how could she go back?
"Madam, don’t worry, Taohua will serve you for a lifeti!" Taohua looked at Ruan Xiao Jiao with determination in her eyes.
"No, that’s not what I an! Taohua, if you are willing to help , I’ll give you your indenture and buy you ten acres of land, so your parents don’t have to work anyone else’s land ever again!" Ruan Xiao Jiao said.
"This..." A flash of hesitation appeared in Taohua’s eyes.
After a long mont, she finally asked, "Madam, how do you need to help you?"
"Help serve the master. I don’t want to have any relations with him, but he is no fool. If nothing happened, he wouldn’t believe it!
Besides, I’m pregnant, and I really don’t want to betray Da De. Taohua, please help ?"
Saying this, Ruan Xiao Jiao knelt before Taohua.
A teenage girl couldn’t withstand such begging from others.
Moreover, the promise Ruan Xiao Jiao made was indeed tempting; in the end, Taohua couldn’t resist and agreed.
"Alright, Madam, but... only this once, I’ll only do this once!"
"Yes! I understand, I promise it will only be this once!" Ruan Xiao Jiao smiled at Taohua.
Then she added, "Later, bring more wine; I’ll make the County Magistrate so drunk that he won’t know what’s happening. Then you co in, and by tomorrow morning, we’ll switch back!"
Ruan Xiao Jiao’s plan was not only to preserve her purity,
but it also ensured that when she married into the Old Mu Family, she had nothing to hide!
All the while being with Mu Dade, she had never shared the County Magistrate’s bed!
Despite her nervousness, Taohua knew she had to see through the path she chose!
Returning to her room, Ruan Xiao Jiao felt much lighter, and when the food was served, she kept pouring wine, pouring wine until the County Magistrate was utterly drunk!
That night, Taohua took Ruan Xiao Jiao’s place to serve the County Magistrate.
Ruan Xiao Jiao also stayed up all night, while the culprit, Mu Dade, slept like a log.
In his mind, he didn’t see this as a big deal at all!
