Time Travel: The Best Doctor in Ancient Times

Chapter 1306: Chapter 967: Mommy, There’s a Soft Spirit!

Gu Taitian saw his daughter with such a firm expression on her face and was amused despite himself. He raised a hand to point at Gu Changsheng’s forehead, his old face full of fondness, ”Your mother and I have worried ourselves to death having a daughter like you! Now, all I wish is for your mother to be reborn; I want nothing else!”

”Dad, people have to have goals in life, right?” Gu Changsheng responded instinctively.

”Wipe that silly grin off your face! Don’t think I don’t know the little schemes you’re cooking up in your head!” Seeing his daughter act like this, Gu Taitian gave her a light knock on the head and said, ”You went out for a bit, stirred up such a mess and brought back so much trouble, causing rumors to fly all over town. What should I even say to you all?”

Zhou Mu, who was standing to the side, hung his head slightly, at a loss for words.

And Gu Changsheng, as soon as her father’s anger subsided, shot Wang Buer an exasperated look.

Gosh, it’s all this Wang Buer’s fault causing trouble. Why bring stuff over so early in the morning?!

And if he had to bring something, why did he have to get caught red-handed by my dad?!

Humph!

If it weren’t for my dad coming to hold us accountable, we wouldn’t have been caught in bed!

Feeling nervously flustered by a single glance from his master, Wang Buer couldn’t help but touch his nose!

Heavens, could it be his master already knows it’s him stirring up the rumors outside?

Doesn’t seem like it!

If his master really knew, wouldn’t he be blowing up by now?

Feeling instinctively that this was dangerous, Wang Buer retreated towards the door like a turtle!

Something doesn’t feel right, better to leave before the master figures it out!

”Thud!”

”Ah!”

Just as he was about to back out of the room, Wang Buer, a little impatient, didn’t notice the small figure darting in from behind, and they collided into a heap!

Wang Buer was taken aback by this!

And the several people in the room rushed to the door in a hurry, each wearing a worried expression.

”Yaoyao!”

”Little Meat Bun!”

”Xiao Gu Ze!”

”Young Master!”

Their exclamations rang out.

”Uh...” Standing at the door, Wang Buer was dumbstruck as he looked at the little child sprawled on the ground, ”Little... Little... Little Young Prince!”

Good heavens, he actually bumped into the Little Young Prince!

Needless to say, even the typically unserious Wang Buer dropped to his knees, anxiously looking at the struggling little child on the ground, unsure whether to help or not...

”Forgive me, Little Young Prince, I...”

”Little Meat Bun, get up by yourself! It’s early in the morning, what are you rushing around for? Is there a ghost behind you?!” Not giving Wang Buer a chance to speak, Gu Changsheng pretended to scold the little meat bun on the ground with mock severity.

This son of hers can’t be pampered!

There are already enough people around her pampering her little meat bun!

If even she, as his mother, couldn’t put on a stern face, then her son would surely grow up crooked!

”Wah...” Hearing his mother’s scolding, the little meat bun on the ground felt even more wronged and immediately got up using both hands and feet, patting his butt that had been hit from the fall, and the next second, he dashed towards his mother and the Old Handsome Grandpa, ”Mommy, Old Handsome Grandpa, there’s a spirit! There’s a spirit! A very soft spirit!”

”Pfft!” Hearing her son’s words, Gu Changsheng immediately burst out laughing.

What kind of nonsense is a soft spirit?

”No rush! No rush! Tell us slowly!” Gu Taitian looked lovingly at the obedient grandson by his feet, soothingly.

”There really is a spirit! Mommy, a soft spirit! Is it a Kelp Spirit? Its waist can do that...” While speaking anxiously, the little meat bun gestured a big bend with his two chubby hands!

”Pfft! What Kelp Spirit? Have you been lazing in bed until your little brain got muddled?” Gu Changsheng burst into laughter upon hearing this.

The Kelp Spirit story was something she had told her little meat bun back then!

She was just having a bit of fun at the time, but unexpectedly, her little meat bun remembered it so well, even now!

”Mommy, it really is a soft spirit! So soft, so soft! Really looking like a spirit!” Lying by his mother and grandpa’s feet, the little meat bun suddenly felt much safer and patted his small chest with a face full of lingering fear, ”Almost scared Baby to death! Mommy, quickly go shoo away that soft spirit! Spirits eat people, I don’t want to be eaten!”

”Who’s going to eat you! You’re overthinking!” Hearing this, Gu Changsheng laughed and shook her head, patting her son’s little head soothingly.

Actually, even she didn’t know what was filling her son’s little head all day long!

Call him smart, and he’s incredibly intelligent.

Call him well-behaved, and he’s extremely obedient!

Of course, his mischievousness is something that’s truly hard to handle!

Well, now he’s even making up spirits on flat ground to fool people!

Gu Changsheng deeply felt that there might indeed be a slight flaw in her education methods; otherwise, how could a promising young bud be slightly swayed by her teaching?

”Mama! There really is a spirit! I’m not lying to you! You have to believe me!” The little baozi, seeing his mother’s disbelieving expression, hurriedly explained in a panic.

”Alright, alright! There’s a spirit! There’s a soft spirit! Is that okay?” Gu Changsheng quickly complied upon seeing this.

As a mother, she couldn’t just crush her son’s beautiful childhood fantasies, could she?

Isn’t it just a soft spirit? Whether it’s a Kelp Spirit or not, as long as her son believes it, then it exists!

She absolutely wouldn’t argue with her son over such meaningless issues!

”Mama...” The little baozi, wise despite his years, immediately turned his head to his grandfather, his chubby little face full of pitifulness, saying, ”Old Handsome Grandpa, there’s really a soft spirit! Really, I’m not lying!”

”...” Even Gu Taitian, who always doted on the little baozi, was at a loss for words upon hearing this.

A hint of difficulty flashed across his face, old yet unable to hide its past glory. Actually, he’d really like to tell his dear grandson that there are no spirits in this world, but thinking of those spirit-communicating Gu insects from the Southern Border, he decided against it as they were close enough to being spirits.

”Grandpa... even you don’t believe me! You don’t love me anymore! Waaa...” The little baozi, seeing this, immediately felt resentful, and in his round, big eyes, tears were threatening to fall, looking extremely pitiful.

Seeing this, Gu Taitian’s heart softened immediately. He changed his tone and quickly said, ”Alright, alright! There are spirits, there are spirits! Since my dear grandson says there are spirits, then let’s say there are spirits!”

”Cough cough...” Gu Changsheng looked at her father, who had no bottom line, and was speechless.

Well, her foster father was a perfect grandfather, and her father was genuinely one too!

These two have never been able to handle the little baozi!

Basically, even if the little baozi said the sun was black, these two elders would nod without hesitation!

Gu Changsheng looked at the beloved little baozi of the family and couldn’t help but purse her lips.

Favoritism!

This is blatant favoritism!

She never received such treatment, all the good things went to her son!

Feeling envious, jealous, and bitter...

”Waa waa... grandpa, even you’re just brushing me off! Don’t think I don’t know the little schemes in your hearts, you think I’m easy to fool because I’m young, how could you deceive me! Waa waa...” The little baozi felt even more aggrieved upon hearing the words of his handsome old grandpa.

”Pfft!” Gu Changsheng couldn’t help but burst out when she heard this.

Why did these words sound so familiar?

Didn’t her father just use these words to block her?

Turning her head in disbelief, Gu Changsheng saw her father’s embarrassed expression, and deep inside, she couldn’t help but laugh wickedly.

Tsk tsk... indeed, those who block others end up being blocked!

Seeing her father defeated in front of her son, how sweet the feeling was!

Gu Changsheng immediately felt a sense of pride and couldn’t help but give her little baozi a thumbs up, good job, he had gotten justice for his mom!

”You’re all bullying me because I’m young, brushing me off! You don’t love me!” The little baozi pouted, looking ready to cry.

The little boy, behaving like he had suffered a great grievance, looked extremely pitiful.

”I, however, think perhaps there really is, just as Xiao Gu Ze said, a soft spirit...”

Just as everyone was at a loss with the little baozi, Zhou Mu stepped forward, gently ruffled the little baozi’s head, and said warmly.

When the little baozi heard this, his big eyes immediately gleamed with joy, and he exclaimed, ”Really? Uncle Wood, you believe me? Waaa... Uncle Wood, I’m so touched! There really is a spirit, I’m not lying!”

”Mm.” Zhou Mu nodded.

Seeing this, Gu Changsheng couldn’t help but purse her lips and mutter disdainfully, ”Where’s your integrity? Isn’t this blatantly telling lies? Go spoil him all you want!”

Hearing his little woman’s complaints, Zhou Mu glanced at her and remained silent.

But the little baozi, upon receiving Zhou Mu’s acknowledgment, was instantly overjoyed. He happily abandoned his mother and grandfather, running over to Zhou Mu, throwing his chubby arms around Zhou Mu’s long leg with gratitude, saying, ”Uncle Wood, you’re the best, only you believe me! There really was a soft spirit! Just now, outside my room, I saw her bend her waist like a pretzel, stretching to catch dewdrops. Uncle Wood, do spirits grow by eating dewdrops? Do they really eat people? That spirit was quite beautiful. If she doesn’t eat people, then I’ll...”
