After the marriage was severed, I fled with my golden finger to protect my mother

This box and the token of the Divine Doctor Sect were both customized by Yuxiu for her in the system mall based on the pattern drawn by Cui. They looked like they had been used for decades. Even if Divine Doctor Yang himself came out to look at them, he would not be able to find any flaws.

To be honest, this can't be considered a lie. Cui remembered it clearly. In her dream, she carried a box like that all day long, and the token was hung around her waist. These were handed to her personally on the first day that Doctor Yang accepted her as his apprentice. However, after she woke up, she was unable to bring those things back, otherwise she wouldn't have gone through so much trouble.

When he heard that he was asked to get the medicine box, the old housekeeper hurriedly accompanied Xu Qinghe there, and soon brought back a heavy medicine box.

So, led by Princess Ning, the group headed towards Manfu Hall in a mighty procession.

Xu Jinran was also in the mansion today. When he received the news, he was still lying on the bed and sleeping soundly. Qin came here with the second lady because she was going to pay her respects to the old princess.

Qin's original idea was to expose the identity of Cui's shopkeeper as a disciple of the genius doctor's sect, but she didn't expect that she would lose more than she gained. Now she is itching all over and can't even speak. Xu Jinran was frightened by her miserable appearance, and he immediately slammed the table and went out angrily with his people to settle the score.

Bah! What kind of disciple is this?

According to him, they were some swindlers who teamed up with the old butler to bring that bastard back, and then they joined forces to try to get a piece of the pie in Prince Ning's Mansion.

Now that his elder and second brothers are not at home, as the only man at home in Prince Ning's Mansion, he certainly has the responsibility to expose the true colors of those people.

It was such a coincidence that Xu Jinran had just passed through the Moon Gate when he saw a group of people walking towards him, talking and laughing.

There was a strange little girl supporting a pregnant woman and walking in the front among the crowd. His eldest sister-in-law, who was usually very noble, and his second sister-in-law, who was vicious and cruel, were now following the woman on both sides with smiles on their faces, and their attitudes were very attentive.

Xu Jinran quickly stopped and took a step back.

It wasn't that he suddenly began to understand etiquette. It was because although the woman looked unfamiliar, she was full of an indomitable aura, which made him think she was a noble person from some family. He didn't dare to approach her rashly.

It’s just that Qin couldn’t speak just now. The maids only said that the third lady offended the disciple of the Divine Doctor Sect and was punished, but they didn’t say whether the person was a boy or a girl.

In Xu Jinran's limited knowledge, the disciple of the Divine Doctor Sect must be an old doctor with a sage look, or a mature and steady middle-aged man. He never expected that he would be on the body of a pregnant woman. So he planned to wait until they passed by, and then find time to ask the old housekeeper where the daring liar was.

"Third brother, today's guests are all women, it would be inconvenient for you to come here, please go back to your own yard first."

Princess Ning had long seen him standing there with a sly look in his eyes, and she felt very annoyed.

There's no end in sight for these three couples, right?

All of them came to annoy her early in the morning. She was already annoyed facing this big family every day, and now someone came to her face to be scolded.

"Sister-in-law, I know you are entertaining guests, so I will leave now. Sorry to bother you..."

Xu Jinran lowered his head and bowed repeatedly. He did not look at Cui directly, but just glanced at her out of the corner of his eye and knew that she was a very beautiful woman. He dared not look up even more.

He had never heard of a person with such appearance. Even a woman like Princess Ning had to please her humbly. Maybe she was someone from the palace.

Cui and Yuxiu looked at his ugly face and couldn't help but look down on him. They didn't even glance at him and decided to go see the old lady first. As for some people, they could deal with them slowly later without any delay.

So the two sides avoided each other perfectly. Xu Jinran went outside in a hurry, while Cui and Yuxiu were respectfully invited to Manfu Hall where the old princess lived.

The maids and servants in Manfu Hall had received the news long ago and had already helped the old princess to wash and groom herself. Then everyone stood in the yard, waiting for their master's orders.

When the group entered the room, they saw an old lady with silver hair leaning on the bed. She didn't react to seeing these people. Her cloudy old eyes scanned the crowd, and the moment she saw Xu Qinghe, they emitted an astonishing light.

"San'er... come here..."

She raised her hand with difficulty, her eyes full of pity and pleading.

Xu Qinghe looked at Cui and Yuxiu awkwardly, with a look of embarrassment on his face.

These days he pretended to be the old lady's youngest son in front of her, and everyone else had gotten used to it. Even Princess Ning and the Second Lady personally asked him to spend more time with the old lady so that she could hold on for a while longer.

"Go and steady her first."

Cui didn't think so much about it. Not to mention that Yuxiu had already told her that the old princess was Xu Qinghe's biological mother, and her real mother-in-law. Even if she was a strange old woman who was seriously ill, she couldn't let her leave with regrets.

Xu Qinghe heaved a sigh of relief when he saw Cui had spoken. He hurried over, squatted beside the bed, and whispered to comfort the old lady.

"Mother-in-law, your daughter-in-law has brought your granddaughter to visit you."

Cui also stepped forward, holding up her skirt, and politely bowed to the old princess. She waved to Yuxiu and said with a smile:

"My dear girl, come and meet your grandmother. I believe that your grandmother will get better soon after seeing you."

"Granddaughter Yuxiu has met her grandmother."

Yuxiu also obediently came forward and pulled the old lady's skinny wrist with a smile.

"Good... San'er is blessed..."

When she heard that it was her third son's wife and child, the old princess was immediately surprised and happy. She held Yuxiu with one hand and Cui with the other. Tears flashed in her eyes and she kept muttering.

The maids and old women were all guarding in the yard. Princess Ning and the Second Madam were standing at the door. Seeing this harmonious scene, they couldn't help but feel suspicious. They looked at each other, as if something was wrong, but they couldn't remember what it was for a moment.

"Sister-in-law, could it be..."

The Second Madam tugged at Princess Ning's sleeve, her expression looking rather unhappy.

What she wanted to say was, could it be that Xu Qinghe was dazzled by the splendor and wealth of the palace, so he quickly asked his wife and children to come over and curry favor with the old lady. Even if it was just a random thing, it would be a priceless treasure.

"Don't be like those shallow-eyed people. Madam Cui is checking the old lady's pulse."

Princess Ning had some doubts before, but she was the mistress of the house after all, and she would consider things more. Look carefully and you will see Madam Cui comforting the old lady while taking her pulse in a very professional manner.
