Chapter 1321: Chapter 1318: Huo Family
“I found two, but I still need you to co over to the residence when the ti cos.”
Lu Sangqi saw Madam Liu every day he ca over, and he knew it was arranged by Chu Heng. Even in the capital, this was a very proper arrangent; no master of the house would pay such attention to his pregnant wife. At most, they would arrange for more servants to take care of her.
He had to admit that Chu Heng did very well when it ca to being attentive.
Even if he admitted that, he wouldn’t say it out loud.
“Auntie, don’t ntion it, I’ll make sure to co over on ti,” Lu Sangqi said, having pushed off all his work at the dicine shop these past few days to the other doctors hired by the shop.
Upon hearing this, Madam Liu felt relieved, “Doctor Lu, it’s almost before noon now, please stay for a al.”
“You’ve been busy lately too, and it’s been a long ti since you last visited the residence. Coincidentally, the manor has sent over so fresh fish. I rember you really enjoy fish with pickled cabbages.”
Madam Liu sincerely invited him, so Lu Sangqi didn’t refuse.
Indeed, a dish of fish with pickled cabbages was prepared at noon, personally cooked by Madam Liu, and it tasted very good. Lu Sangqi ate it with satisfaction.
Before he left, he rembered sothing, “Next door, Old Mada Huo isn’t feeling well; she asked to check her pulse to ensure her safety. After checking, I’m planning to head straight back.”
As he was getting closer to the due date, he habitually inford them of his whereabouts, so that people at the Chu family could find him in ti.
After listening, Madam Liu smiled even more contentedly, “Very well, very well, auntie understands. You’re always busy with seeing patients.”
“However, you’re not getting any younger. Do you have soone in mind?” As Madam Liu looked at him, she beca more and more satisfied and couldn’t help but think about matchmaking.
Lu Sangqi’s face changed slightly. He involuntarily glanced at Ye Muyu, seeing that she wore a curious smile, he pursed his lips, “Auntie, my family back ho has already arranged a fiancée for .”
“It’s just that her grandfather has passed away, and she needs to observe three years of mourning.”
“Ah, I see,” upon hearing this, Madam Liu naturally did not press further, “Then forget what I said. It’s good that you were betrothed early on, and you must know each other well. Knowing each other before getting married is certainly better than a blind arranged marriage.”
Ye Muyu was curious, “How co I didn’t know you have a fiancée?”
“I just never ntioned it to you,” Lu Sangqi gave her a look, then turned his head away, clearly not wanting to continue the topic.
Seeing this, Ye Muyu did not pursue it any further; after all, she could guess that the relationship between the Lu family of the Prefectural City and Lu Sangqi was not good. Other people’s family affairs were indeed not her place to inquire too much.
“Alright then.”
“I won’t see you out.”
Lu Sangqi glanced at her belly and snorted, “Do I need you to see out?”
Saying this, he walked away with a haughty air.
Madam Liu helped Ye Muyu walk around the yard, the closer she got to her due date, the more she needed to move around.
After leaving the Chu family, Lu Sangqi went straight to the General’s family next door.
The Huo family housekeeper, upon seeing him, sent soone to notify the family while leading him into the residence.
Huo Hongyan, having heard that the doctor had arrived, hurried to her grandmother’s courtyard and t Lu Sangqi on the way.
“Doctor Lu?” Huo Hongyan called out to him.
Lu Sangqi stopped and nodded, “Miss Huo.”
“Thank you, Doctor Lu, for coming to treat my grandmother. Is there any possibility of a cure for my grandmother’s illness?” Huo Hongyan asked softly, her eyes full of worry.
Having already seen Old Mada Huo once before, Lu Sangqi was well aware of her condition. Upon hearing this, he answered candidly, “The Old Mada has so chronic ailnts, and with her age, it’s only possible to sustain her condition. The likelihood of a complete cure is not large.”
