Jiang Hongying beamed at her son’s words. Since her son liked her choice, everyone was pleased.
“Sure, sure, sure! How unusual for my son to like someone so much. I will certainly take care of it. Yunhao, this Miss Bai is no ordinary person! The bastard may have brought four nephews back, and Mo Chengrui is in his teens, but don’t forget that those children are all worthless. Four of them together are no match for the Bai family’s grandchild. Do you understand?”
Mo Yunhao’s eyes brightened!
That’s right!
His mother had asked him to quickly marry and have a son to increase his chances of being the head of the household. But Mo Beihan already had four nephews. No matter how many children he had, he could not beat Mo Beihan in this respect.
But now that his mother mentioned it, he also felt that he had the advantage.
So what if they had many children?
Could they compare to the Bai family’s grandchild?
Mo Yunhao immediately grew impatient. “Mother, quickly propose a match on my behalf. I want to start having children immediately!”
His words amused Jiang Hongying so much that she could not stop laughing.
Mo Beihan had returned to the Mo family and stayed at the Mo House. He was naturally often in the vicinity of the Mo House. Although the Bai family also lived nearby, at that moment, Bai Youran was not aware that Mo Beihan was so near her.
At that moment, she was almost out of her mind from the pain.
Gu Qingyao had pierced her kneecap with a silver needle, and it was still there.
Gu Qingyao had intended to teach her a lesson and avenge herself a little, then find a way to extract the needle.
She was well aware that the Gu family’s fortunes had not yet risen, and the Bai family was currently too powerful. If her actions were discovered, or if the Bai family even suspected what she had done, the Gu family would be destroyed.
If she really wanted Bai Youran to pay a devastating price, she would have to wait for a time when she had the ability and status to do so.
But she had been engrossed in whether she should go overseas or not, and then… she had forgotten about it!
So Bai Youran had been in pain all this while. The agony came in waves, but they just could not find the reason behind it. The torment had caused her to rapidly grow haggard.
She was so haggard now that she was no longer pretty. So she did not dare to leave the house.
Next to her, her mother, Zheng Min, looked at her worriedly. “You You! Why have you suddenly become like that? You’re so young and have always been in good health. There’s no reason why you should suddenly fall so ill! But we just can’t find the reason. I’m worried to death!”
Bai Youran did not know what to do either!
“Mother, I don’t want to be this way either! But my leg experiences waves of pain, even after I’ve taken painkillers.”
Her illness had awoken the worst of Bai Youran’s temper. Never nice to start with, she was even more bad-tempered now.
Her face was contorted as she said, “It’s all the fault of those quacks. They can’t even diagnose a small ailment. Mother, you have to think of something! I can’t stand it much longer!”
Zheng Min could not bear to see her darling daughter in this state. Of course, she wanted her daughter to get better quickly.
Zheng Min said, “You You! I’ve looked for all the famous doctors in the capital. Some of them are overseas and cannot come back. Some of them are really busy with work. But there is one person who might be able to help.”
“Who?” Bai Youran’s eyes were filled with hope.
“Jiang Yiru. She’s the one who has recently become very famous in medical circles. They say she was a famous doctor in Jiangnan, but had undergone reformation through labor in the countryside. She was recently transferred to the capital to practice medicine.”
