Time Travel: The Best Doctor in Ancient Times

Chapter 1177: Chapter 844: Who Hurts More When Hitting Whom

Wuchang Yue and Little Han Mo with the Black Face watched the little meat bun getting hit, both a little worried and anxious.

They wanted to say something to help, but didn’t know how.

Zhou Mu looked at his careless little woman, and sighed helplessly in his heart.

He was really at his wit’s end with this woman. He truly didn’t understand how his seemingly clever woman could be so oblivious to this extent? How was he supposed to handle someone so dense?

Zhou Mu shook his head helplessly.

”He just lost blood and got injured...”

Just as Gu Changsheng was completely bewildered, a cool voice sounded in her ear, faintly echoing in her mind.

”Huh?” Gu Changsheng was startled, blinking in confusion, and looked at her own evildoer who was disciplining their son.

This is...

Was he using his Inner Strength to communicate with her?

He just lost blood and got injured?

Who?

Gu Changsheng blinked in bewilderment, opened her mouth to ask, but her evildoer gave her a cold glance.

The whimsical woman shivered slightly in her heart, and suddenly, everything became clear to her. She looked at her evildoer, who was caught between the dilemma of whether to slap or not, and her mouth twitched...

Alright, she could somewhat understand that gloomy look on her evildoer’s otherwise divine face as him feeling sorry for the little meat bun!

No, not somewhat, definitely!

She knew it! Her evildoer, clearly had the potential of a doting father, even though the little meat bun was indeed at fault this time, yet the evildoer’s way of disciplining still carried quite a force. Look, when the loving father suddenly turns strict, how long can he keep it up, huh? See, can’t hold on any longer, right?

Time for her to step in and save the day, right?

Humph!

Gu Changsheng rolled her eyes, her mouth twitching, clearly unwilling, in fact, she felt that her son was indeed a bit too naughty, and as a mother, she wasn’t really the strict type. Even when disciplining her son, she wasn’t all that confident about it. Her evildoer disciplining the kid, actually wasn’t bad!

Unfortunately, her evildoer was also someone who spoiled his son!

There you go!

The disciplining scene had just reached halfway, and he, for goodness’ sake, got soft on him first!

This couldn’t be any clearer, this time the evildoer wanted her to plead for leniency, so today, the evildoer plays the villain and she plays the softie!

”What are you still dawdling for? Is Yaoyao your son or not?”

Just as Gu Changsheng was grudgingly unwilling to cooperate in acting, the cool voice echoed in her mind once more.

”Hmph!” Hearing this, Gu Changsheng was instantly displeased.

Damn it!

She’s clearly the biological mother, how come she always gets outshined by this evildoer of a stepfather?

”Pester! Pester! You’re pestering for what, finding it amusing to nag? Little meat bun is seriously getting more and more unruly, it’s not easy to catch his little tails, you slap him a few more times on the bottom, it won’t break him, he’s just a little brat...”

The biological mother, who was feeling indignant at having been looked down upon by the stepfather, glared at her evildoer, but in the end, her heart went out for her son, and using Inner Strength to mutter complaints, she reluctantly walked towards the evildoer who was spanking their son’s bottom...

Acting and the like!

She honestly wasn’t thrilled about it!

Being the third-generation military born under the red flag, asking her to play the role of some actor was really somewhat demanding.

Yet, seeing her son’s pitiful appearance after his bottom got smacked, and the evildoer persistently urging her with his eyes, Gu Changsheng gave in!

Damn, hasn’t she seen pigs walk even if she hasn’t eaten pork, let alone someone like her, who loves meat? She had to be a good actress, of course!

Gu Changsheng decisively wiped her face with her hand, and in the next moment, held onto Zhou Mu’s raised hand which hadn’t yet swung down, speaking with heartfelt sincerity, ”Evildoer, stop hitting, little meat bun has already admitted his mistake! A small punishment as a warning is enough. If you keep hitting him, we only have this one son now, who’s going to carry on our family name for us...”

Gu Changsheng tried hard to recall the dramas she had watched in her past life in modern times, thinking of those familiar lines, immediately borrowed and applied them.

Zhou Mu, upon hearing his woman’s words, his tall body stiffened, and his expression slightly changed.

”Mother...” Little meat bun, upon seeing his mother intervene to stop his spanking, was deeply moved, raising his watery eyes, he spoke hesitantly, ”Mother... what kind of basin is an old basin? A washbasin? Or a dough-making basin?”

Gu Changsheng: ”...”

She was stunned for a few seconds before realizing what nonsense she had said, and her face changed too.

”Ah, ptooey, ptooey, ptooey! Bad words don’t stick!” Gu Changsheng pretended to spit on the ground.

Damn it, what the heck was she even talking about!

Isn’t it like those big shows where they sing about this and that, how is this any different from cursing yourself to die?

Gu Changsheng admitted that she wasn’t superstitious, but it couldn’t be helped that she was unluckily destined, and Heavenly Father never treated her well, right? So she thought it was absolutely necessary to be cautious with her words and actions. Therefore, her words could only wish for good and never hope for bad!

This has nothing to do with superstition!

”It’s not a washbasin or a face basin, oh my! The key now isn’t the basin’s quality, okay? Little Bun, if you keep fooling around, you’ll be getting your butt smacked again!” Gu Changsheng glared at her son and said angrily.

”Oh... alright... then Mother, please persuade Uncle Wood quickly, Yaoyao promises never to make mistakes again...” Little Bun nodded quickly, speaking very flatteringly.

Upon hearing this, Gu Changsheng gave her son a quick side glance and thought inwardly, oh my, these words her son would plead earnestly every time he made a mistake, and yet next time, this rascal would make the same mistake!

It really confirmed that saying: a good attitude in admitting mistakes, but repeatedly doing wrong!

In short, just four words: repeatedly taught without change!

Zhou Mu really had no expectations left for his woman, relying on her to follow the rules was too unlikely. Anyway, she had already intervened, so he could take the opportunity to stop!

Therefore, Zhou Mu immediately put on a composed and uniquely handsome face, looking seriously at Little Bun and said solemnly, ”Since your mother has pleaded for you, this king will spare you this time. If you make mistakes again, this king won’t mind discussing Kung Fu with you!”

Gu Changsheng raised an eyebrow.

Kung Fu?

What kind of Kung Fu?

Is it the Kung Fu of butt-smacking?

But she dared not ask this. Watching her evildoer put Little Bun down and tidily straighten his clothes, Gu Changsheng knew that this drama was coming to an end!

Oh my god!

Was it easy for her to act in this scene? She nearly messed up!

Damn!

She really was not cut out to be a performer!

”Mother, Uncle Wood, I know I’m wrong. I won’t make mistakes again next time. Please don’t be mad, don’t dislike me...” Little Bun said, rubbing his chubby little paws and hanging his little head, with a very standard admission posture.

Zhou Mu nodded in response, without saying more.

Gu Changsheng, however, looked unconvinced.

If she were to believe her son, she might as well believe a pig could climb a tree faster!

Godfather already darkened the sky, and the crescent moon was hanging high on the willow treetops. Gu Changsheng knew that because of Medical Immortal Old Man’s arrival, the delayed dinner was likely ready, as her stomach began to sing the empty city strategy.

And Zhou Mu, however, raised his eyes towards the direction of the Guest Garden, waved his sleeve, and said to Little Bun, ”Weren’t you wanting to check the kitchen for something tasty? Go ahead!”

”Huh?” Little Bun, still reflecting on his mistakes, looked up puzzledly. Seeing Uncle Wood’s unquestionable look, he immediately nodded and obediently walked towards the direction of the kitchen, not forgetting to bring along the other three companions who stood by and watched without helping.

”Why send them away?” Gu Changsheng watched her son cover his small butt and wobble away, looking puzzled at Zhou Mu.

”Because the one who wants to settle accounts with you is coming. You’ve just watched Yaoyao being punished; you wouldn’t want him to see you being punished too, now would you?” Zhou Mu glanced at the little woman beside him, speaking helplessly.

Upon hearing this, Gu Changsheng’s eyes widened and she glanced towards the other side of the Guest Garden. Under the moonlit sky, a silhouette was indeed swiftly running towards where they were.

Gu Changsheng shook her head quickly.

Darn it, although she might not have the makings of a stern mother, she certainly didn’t want to be humiliated in front of her son!

Even her evildoer couldn’t escape the fate of being humiliated in front of this Old Man, so Gu Changsheng figured with how egotistical she was, she’d never escape this misfortune!

Zhou Mu watched his embarrassed little woman and slightly curled his lips, speaking indulgently, ”You! How should I describe you? Just asking you to say a few words of dissuasion to this king and you can whip out lines from a script. It’s fortunate that it’s not in your Heavenly Palace, but if it were, every word and deed of yours would be recorded in the king’s daily notes, for future generations to read about you. Those who don’t know might think you’re from a family of performers. Kudos to your imagination!”

Hearing her evildoer’s mutterings, Gu Changsheng’s face immediately darkened.

Oh damn, blame her?

She never wanted to intercede in the first place!

”Obviously it’s you with the sharp tongue and a soft heart, feeling sorry for him, but blaming it on me! I say, you should give him a good beating once; a crooked tree needs tying, tying it wrongly makes it a crooked timber!”

”Then why don’t you tie him yourself?” Zhou Mu looked at his woman helplessly.

”I...” Gu Changsheng was momentarily speechless, eventually speaking, ”I can’t bring myself to be harsh...”

Oh my, she’s his mother after all!

If you want her to truly discipline her precious son, that’s a bit tough!

Gu Changsheng thought that if she were placed in modern times, she would proudly fit the standard of an indulgent mother.

”Gu Changsheng! Gu Changsheng, you unworthy disciple, you better come out for old me! If you don’t give old me an explanation today, I won’t leave!”
