Divine Doctor Mommy Is A True Big Shot-Chapter 103 - 105 Endearing Little Boy

Old Madam Feng cried and wailed.

“Big brother…”

The usually eloquent Feng Zhan Tian was also at a loss for words.

Feng Bailing did not witness this drama at the Princess’ Mansion in person; she had gotten off the horse carriage midway to visit Xinglin Spring, but she was confident that Dongfang Lianhua could handle the matter.

Upon entering Xinglin Spring, there were not many customers. Hair cream was displayed on the shelves, Su Wang was organizing the accounts, and Lu Yin was studying the hair cream brewed by Feng Bailing.

The original doctor of Xinglin Spring, Yang Shoucai, was beaten to death after provoking public outrage, and they had not yet found a suitable new doctor.

Feng Bailing then invited Lu Yin over, who would come to consult on the first and fifteenth of every month, and at other times, if there were difficult and complicated diseases, Feng Bailing had to intervene herself.

A few days after the reopening, there were only a handful of customers, and Su Wang’s eyebrows were knotted with worry.

Lu Yin held the hair cream brewed by Feng Bailing and sniffed it.

“Old ginger, azurite, angelica, and dry pine, these four medicinal herbs can actually make black hair oil. Master Feng, this thing can make a lot of silver.”

As he spoke, Lu Yin pulled out a few silver notes from his bosom.

“This is the gambling money you won, Dugu Wu asked me to bring it to you. How did you offend Dugu Wu? His face was as dark as the bottom of a pot, and he won’t let Xiaojin contact you anymore.”

Feng Bailing pursed her lips. Good you, Dugu Wu, it’s enough that you misunderstood me, but you also forbid me from seeing Xiaojin, I insist on seeing her.

Feng Bailing explained the whole story.

“You pushed Princess Mingxia into the water? I don’t believe it. If you were going to harm someone, you wouldn’t need to do it yourself.”

Lu Yin shook his head.

A basin of evergreen leaves directly made Zhanlian mute.

“You should say this to Dugu Wu.”

“Don’t blame Dugu Wu for being paranoid. There are too many deceitful people around him, he is just afraid that you would mistreat Xiaojin after marrying into his house. Let him cool off for a few days, I’ll talk to him again. But Princess Mingxia is quite pitiful, a fine lady, now mute, she’s already seventeen this year and no one has come to propose marriage, Princess Consort Shun sighs all day.”

Lu Yin shook his head.

Once the rumor about Feng Bailing pushing Mingxia into water spreads, Princess Consort Shun will be furious with Feng Bailing.

Feng Bailing held a thick stack of silver notes, looking at the seal on them.

“Is Jubao House opened by Dugu Wu?”

“He is one of the owners, it’s him, me, and a few good brothers who opened it together.”

Lu Yin gave a nonchalant look.

Feng Bailing counted.

“How come there’s only fifty thousand taels? I wagered one thousand taels; the odds were one to one hundred twenty-five. I should have gotten 125,000 taels in hand. Even after deducting Jubao House’s interest, there should still be a hundred thousand taels.”

Feng Bailing glared at Lu Yin, this fellow truly is a shady businessman.

“Madam, no wonder you were able to pass the Yuxiu Academy exam—your speed at calculating is even faster than Jubao House’s accountant. Only Dugu can compete with you. Don’t forget that you pawned it too. Dugu Wu said this jade is worth fifty thousand taels; take it back, and the fifty thousand taels go to the pawnshop.”

Lu Yin took out the jade pendant and threw it to Feng Bailing.

Feng Bailing felt like crying without tears, just how much property does Dugu Wu own in Chu City!

“This thing, although it’s just a stone, is very important to Dugu; it’s the only thing left by his mother, more important than his life. Don’t lose it again. Even though Dugu is mad at you, he hasn’t reclaimed the jade, which shows there’s still room for maneuver. If you can find a way, try to help Princess Mingxia regain her speech; if she can speak, Dugu’s anger might subside.”

Lu Yin kindly pointed out.

After Lu Yin delivered the silver note, Feng Bailing returned to the Princess’ Mansion. Seeing the Princess’ Mansion bisected, Feng Bailing was delighted, yet she worried about the still-angry Dugu Wu. Although she had given birth, she had never been in a relationship, let alone coaxed a man, so she could only think of another plan.

The night passed without incident, and the next day, Feng Bailing was to start school at Yuxiu Academy. She thought she might meet Princess Mingxia today—to undo the bell one must tie it, and the solution lies with Princess Mingxia.

The horse carriage of the Princess’ Mansion stopped at the intersection of the Imperial Academy and Yuxiu Academy.

“Xiao Li, are you really going to the Imperial Academy alone?”

“Xiao Li is already a big child, not like that annoying Dongfang Jin, always needing someone to accompany him.”

Feng Xiaoli’s cheeks puffed out, resembling a little goldfish.

Moreover, Brother Xiaojin always goes to school alone; she wanted to emulate Brother Xiaojin.

Feng Bailing knew that Xiao Li and Xiaojin had become good friends, which made her happy.

She hadn’t seen Feng Zao last night and didn’t know if Dugu Wu, in his anger, had withdrawn him too.

She planned to sneak out in the afternoon to see Dugu Xiaojin and investigate his father’s intentions.

Watching her daughter, backpack swaying like a little duckling, walking towards the Imperial Academy, Feng Bailing couldn’t help but smile.

The horse carriage then took Feng Bailing to the outside of Yuxiu Academy, where a small figure stood facing the wall.

“Xiaojin, what brings you here?”

Feng Bailing was both surprised and delighted.

Lu Yin had said that Dugu Wu would not allow Dugu Xiaojin to see her, she thought Dugu Xiaojin would ignore her from now on.

Dugu Xiaojin was here to find Feng Bailing but had come early. He was handsome, resembling a porcelain doll, and when the girls from Yuxiu Academy who came to study saw him, they all stared at him, making him, who suffered from gynophobia, feel stiff all over, so he simply stared at the wall and zoned out.

Hearing Feng Bailing’s voice, Dugu Xiaojin showed a smile.

He reached into his bosom and pulled out a crumpled silver note, respectfully handing it to Feng Bailing.

It was a one thousand taels silver note from Jubao House.

Dugu Xiaojin had gambled all the money from the small porcelain pig on Feng Bailing, earning a full one thousand taels.

His father told him he could handle this money, and without hesitation, he came looking for Feng Bailing.

Every time the ladies from Prince Shun’s Mansion asked his father for money, they would, without exception, cry about having no jewelry and no clothes—Dugu Xiaojin remembered this well: women always lack clothes and jewelry.

“Does your father know?”

Feng Bailing was so excited she nearly shed a mother’s tears.

Dugu Xiaojin nodded, biting his lip lightly.

His father was very angry after returning to the mansion yesterday and forbade him from seeing Feng Bailing again.

But he couldn’t help himself… Dugu Xiaojin pulled out a sheet of paper, on which was written a line of characters.
