Rebirth: The Courtyard Bride Is Cool and Radiant

Chapter 650: Chapter 650: Seeds of Doubt in the Heart

Once a seed of doubt is planted in someone’s heart, even the best of relationships will develop cracks: ”Shuzhen, you’re not young anymore, it’s not good for me to have to accompany you in everything.”

Lian Shuzhen always felt her aunt was acting strange: ”Or should I call Uncle to see if he has time, let him accompany me for a trip, Uncle’s workplace has a car, and time is sufficient, this way I won’t have to take leave.”

Bai Yutong was already suspicious, and Lian Shuzhen’s words were like stabbing a knife into her heart: ”No, your uncle is very busy lately, he doesn’t have time to accompany you to the city.”

Afraid she would make more demands: ”If you want to seek treatment, just take a bus to the city by yourself, I’ll find someone to write you a note later. If you don’t want to go, then go back to the village, maybe you’ll get better in a few days.”

Lian Shuzhen was dumbfounded, what’s going on, she’s sick, and how is her aunt behaving like this: ”Auntie, you, I, I came to the countryside here, my parents were counting on you to look after me, and now that I’m unwell, you’re telling me to go to the city alone?”

Bai Yutong was momentarily speechless, yet she thought about her niece having the same illness as her husband, and that female doctor even said it could be due to unclean living habits, possibly infectious, how could she treat her niece kindly?

She calmed her emotions a bit: ”Shuzhen, I’m really tied up these days, how about I accompany you to the city in a few days, you go back to the village today.

After all, as you said earlier, if you go to the city, you might not return the same day, and you don’t have an introduction letter to go to the city, it will be a hassle, don’t you think?”

Lian Shuzhen had a conflicted expression on her face: ”But if I just go back like this, those fellow zest youth roommates of mine will definitely say unpleasant things.”

Bai Yutong had lost her patience by now: ”Shuzhen, you’ll have to endure it a bit, after all, Auntie has important matters to attend to these days, it wouldn’t be good to back out on a date set with the girl’s side, right?”

Seeing her aunt was determined to handle her own affairs first, Lian Shuzhen could only compromise: ”Alright then.”

Feeling unhappy, she naturally didn’t follow her aunt back, but headed directly to the ox cart going back to the village.

But the more she thought about it, the angrier she got, her aunt wasn’t worried at all despite her condition, so she turned around and went to the post office.

She paid a deposit and directly dialed a phone number for her mother, and when the call connected: ”Hello, could you find Bai Yurong for me, please.”

Bai Yurong had just finished being busy when she heard someone was calling for her, she hurried over to answer the phone: ”Hello, this is Bai Yurong, who is this?”

Hearing her mother’s voice, Lian Shuzhen’s emotions surged, and she said tearfully: ”Mom, it’s me.”

Upon hearing her daughter’s voice, Bai Yurong asked: ”Zhenzhen, what’s wrong?”

Lian Shuzhen recounted what had happened today to her mother: ”Mom, they’re sure to say nasty things again, I don’t want to go back to the village now.”

Hearing her daughter’s words, Bai Yurong felt a bit upset: ”I’ll call your uncle to check the situation.”

Lian Shuzhen gave a soft ”mm” with grievance before hanging up the phone.

At this moment, she overheard someone talking: ”Let me tell you, the new Doctor Xiao Chu at our factory is really skilled, his master is a renowned physician, and he has been learning medicine with his family elders since he was young, don’t be fooled by his age, his medical skills are impressive.

I’m thinking of sending a letter back home, telling my niece to come over when she has time so Doctor Xiao Chu can have a look at her. That child inherited from her grandma’s side and has a problem with body odor.

She is at marrying age now, if it’s not treated, it’ll be hard to find a partner.”

”Is Doctor Xiao Chu at your factory really that impressive?”
