The Spirited Daughter-in-law and the Mountain Man - Chapter 730

Chapter 730: 730 uncle’s fiancée

Su Qingyue quickly followed.

Xiao Yuchuan naturally followed his wife.

In the east wing room of the Tao Mansion, Tao Meijiao anxiously rushed to the bedside, shouting loudly, “Father!”

Su Qingyue and Xiao Yuchuan, who entered the room later, saw a thin man lying on the bed, with half-black and half-white hair, deep wrinkles at the corners of his eyes and forehead, looking like he was sixty years old.

Su Qingyue remembered that Tao Meijiao mentioned her father was only forty-seven years old. She didn’t expect him to look so old.

Considering Master Tao lost his son and wife in his middle age and was tormented by illness for a long time, it was not surprising that he looked like this.

When Master Tao heard his daughter’s voice, he tried to respond, but he couldn’t make a sound.

The doctor at the side said, “Miss Tao, your father’s body has long been weakened by years of illness to the point of being an empty shell. It’s quite a miracle that he has held on till now. You should prepare for his funeral.”

Having said that, he picked up his medicine box and was about to leave.

Tao Meijiao hurriedly grabbed his arm and knelt before him, “Dr. Chen, you are the most famous doctor in our town. If even you can’t save my father, then he really has no hope! Please, save my father! No matter how much it costs, I’m willing to pay, just save my father, he is my only relative in the world, he can’t die!”

Dr. Chen wanted to help her up, “Miss Tao, as a medical practitioner, it’s not that I don’t want to save him, but with my medical skill, I simply can’t.”

“I heard you were once an imperial doctor in the palace…”

“As for your father’s illness, I am powerless to turn the tide.” He sighed and shook his head, “Under the heavens, except for the divine immortals, there is no one else who can save him.” He thought for a moment, “No, there is still one person who might be able to!”

“Who?” Tao Meijiao’s eyes flashed with hope.

“Have you ever heard of the Pear Blossom Villa, the world’s number one estate?”

Tao Meijiao said, “I have heard of it.”

“A few months ago, Villa Master Chang Haotian of the Pear Blossom Villa was poisoned with the Seven-Day Soul Breaking Powder and pursued by a large group of black-clothed killers. Originally, Master Chang should have died, but he met a divine doctor who instantly cured the poison that no other doctor in the world could. That woman divine doctor called herself ‘Unnamed’.” Dr. Chen continued, “In the past few months, the name of ‘Unnamed’ divine doctor has become famous throughout the country. If you can find her, there might still be a chance. However, the ‘Unnamed’ divine doctor is elusive, and it is said that Master Chang promised to marry her to repay her lifesaving grace. Even if you find her, with the status of Master Chang’s fiancée, you might not be able to recruit her, no matter how much money you have. Moreover, your father can’t hold on much longer than tonight… Sigh!”

Hearing Dr. Chen’s words, Su Qingyue pondered: the divine doctor ‘Unnamed’…

She listened to him talking about Master Chang being chased by a large group of black-clothed men.

How familiar.

She thought back to the uncle she had saved by the riverbank a few months ago.

Could it be that the uncle who wanted to marry her was Master Chang? Chang Haotian… The name did sound nice.

For the past few months, she had been busy building a house and training the little bastard on the mountain every day, so she hadn’t been paying much attention to the fame of the ‘divine doctor’.

After saving the uncle who was being chased, she asked him to spread the name of the divine doctor ‘Unnamed’ as a token of gratitude.

Needless to say, the ‘Unnamed’ divine doctor was Su Qingyue, and that uncle kept his promise.

But…

That uncle actually claimed she was his fiancée!
