Unbridled Medical Expert Consort: Demon Prince, Be Good

Chapter 32A: A Lord Turned Up Uninvited

There was no news of Luo Qing Shuang marrying off into Fifth Prince’s Mansion. There simply wasn’t the slightest bit of a stir.

Not mentioning that there were no officials or anyone of note who came to congratulate her, even the Fifth Prince’s mansion was calm and quiet, as if not a thing happened.

The general’s mansion also continued on as before, short one eldest daughter, yet wasn’t the least different. Only the side madam, Wang Xue Ru, who besides heaving deep sighs all day and being worried about her daughter, she didn’t even have the slightest urge anymore to find trouble with Luo Qing Luan. 

This was perfect. Luo Qing Luan happily idled away. Besides Luo Qing Shuang and Nangong Chen coming back together to visit her maiden family on the third day, when she went to look outside, she later didn’t appear in public at all.

“My Lady, from what I can see, the eldest lady seems to be doing well at Fifth Prince’s mansion.” Dai Yue was somewhat puzzled. On the day she got married, Luo Qing Shuang wept endlessly then she was covered by a veil. Dai Yue watched the small palanquin enter a side door at the Fifth Prince’s mansion, but didn’t expect that on the day Luo Qing Shuang returned to her maiden home, she and Fifth Prince would appear so intimate, as if the two of them got along very well.

Luo Qing Luan picked up a silver needle and practiced acupuncture directly on a piece of pork. 

She did not need to be precise, therefore, she merely used a piece of pork. As long as she trained her fingers to be nimble, she would regain her previous level of skill.

During these few days, she also no longer visited Heavenly Dream Tower and only stayed at home to practice acupuncture techniques. This allowed her to settle down and focus. She must quickly grasp these techniques.

“Are you talking about Elder Sister?”

Hearing what Dai Yue said, Luo Qing Luan answered levelly. “Don’t you know that she’s quite clever? As long as she fawned on him a bit, be a bit gentler, used a few tricks, how can Nangong Chen, that shameless skirt chaser, not like her?”

Hearing this, Dai Yue covered her mouth and smiled. “My Lady, that’s actually Fifth Prince. You surprisingly say that he……say that he is a shameless person.”

“Can it be that I’m mistaken?” 

Luo Qing Luan recalled how when they returned to the bride’s parental home, and Nangong Chen finally saw her changed appearance, his pair of eyes nearly crossed. They seemed like glue as they stuck to her body. If Luo Qing Shuang hadn’t pinched him, very likely his soul would’ve been lost at the time!

“Isn’t it because My Lady is so beautiful. Don’t mention Fifth Prince, even I feel that you are much prettier than the eldest lady. If My Lady wasn’t tricked previously into dressing so gaudily before, maybe the position of Western Chu’s most outstanding beauty would have belonged to you.” 

Dai Yue felt very sorry about that.

After practicing for awhile, and she felt that her fingers had become much more nimble, Luo Qing Luan finally put away her needles. She shook her head and smiled. “You. Stop thinking about those useless things. Do you think that having such reputation is a good thing?”

She didn’t want to think about anything and just hope that she would remain nameless forever, hiding in some secret place getting rich.

Even if she ran into an opponent, she’d just pretend to be a pig to eat the tiger. That’s what she liked to do the most. Being famous and what not, just forget it.

“That’s right, My Lady, I nearly forgot to tell you.” Dai Yue suddenly spoke. “Nanny Song returned. Do you want to meet her?”

Nanny Song? 

Suddenly mentioning this name. Even though Luo Qing Luan felt that it was somewhat unfamiliar. The appearance of a benevolent old lady immediately flashed through her mind. Only then did see realize that Nanny Song was actually her former self’s wet nurse. In the past, she also served her mother. Recently, something happened to her family, so she especially beseeched Luo Cheng to arrange for a one month leave of absence before returning.

Nanny Song had always been very good to her. It’s just that she had not been at the residence and Luo Qing Luan had been so busy recently that she nearly forgot about this matter.

“En, have Nanny Song come for a visit. I also have things to say to her.”

Dai Yue left. After a while, an elderly lady dressed in blue coarse cloth entered.

Perhaps it’s because she hadn’t seen her for many days, but once she saw Luo Qing Luan, she couldn’t help but say, “My Lady, I’ve returned. I’ve been gone for so many days, have you been well? Has the side madam bullied you again?”

“No. Wet nurse, don’t you worry.” Luo Qing Luan stepped forward and held her hands to pull her to sit down together.

“My Lady, let me have a look at you. Have you lost weight?”

Appearing both distressed and doting, Nanny Song shook both hands as she held Luo Qing Luan’s hands. After she looked at her up and down and saw that her complexion was truly much better, only then did Nanny Song relaxed.

“Wet nurse returned to your hometown for such a long time, was it because something big happened? Do you still need money?” 

Without waiting for her to answer,  Luo Qing Luan already had Dai Yue take out ten taels of silver to give her. “Wet Nurse, you take this bit of money……”

“That’s not acceptable, My Lady, that’s so much money. It’s better for you to save it for your own use.” Nanny Song was both moved and gratified.

Ever since their Madam passed away, the young lady was personally raised by her, so she had observed everything in regards to just how much bitterness their young lady had suffered during these fifteen years. Luo Cheng was angry that their mistress caused the madam to die when she was born, as a result, he did not like her, but how could the Master have known……

The secret in her mind had already been hidden over ten plus years. Seeing that Luo Qing Luan had recovered her true appearance and become more and more beautiful, elegant, and exquisite, Nanny Song could not help but tear up. 

“Why is wet nurse crying for no reason? Is there some trouble in your family?” As far as this person who sincerely treats her well was concerned, she also valued her equally. As long as it was something that she could help with, no matter what the request was, she would agree. 

Now that she thought about the matter with her family, Nanny Song felt very awkward and did not know whether she should talk about it or not.
