Chapter 1032 The Secret of Xiahou Family

Wei Ting took a few steps forward, blocking Su Xiaoxiao behind him, and met his death-like gaze with a cold expression.

Xia Houyi's eyes also stayed on Wei Ting's face for a moment after he had disguised himself.

"Second uncle."

At this time, Xia Houqing also came to the wheelchair, bowed and pulled up the thick blanket that had slipped slightly from his body, "It's so cold outside, why did you come out?"

Su Xiaoxiao looked at Xia Houyi from behind Wei Ting.

He is afraid of cold.

But with my body so weak, it’s not surprising that I’m afraid of the cold.

Seeing that Xia Houyi did not answer him, but turned to look at Duanmu Yun in Baihua Palace, Xia Houqing introduced him: "Second uncle, he is Duanmu Yun, the son of Yunshuang, and the person standing behind him is his wife."

After he finished speaking, he said to Su Xiaoxiao and Wei Ting, "He is my second uncle."

Wei Ting cupped his hands and saluted: "Second Master."

His attitude was correct and his tone was gentle, as if the eye contact just now did not exist.

Su Xiaoxiao also came over to say hello.

Xia Houqing said to the two of them: "My second uncle has some difficulty speaking."

In fact, there was no need for him to explain to Su Xiaoxiao and Wei Ting. They both knew very well that he was doing it for Ling Yun's sake.

"Second uncle, I will push you in."

Xia Houqing personally pushed Xia Houyi into the house.

This is the bedroom. The space is very spacious, not luxurious, and it exudes the simple fragrance of wood everywhere.

There is a large landscape screen at the entrance, and his bed is behind the screen.

On the right hand side is the study room, with a desk and bookshelf, and several pictures of island scenery.

Su Xiaoxiao's eyes fell on a big bow hanging on the wall.

Granny Nie seemed to say unintentionally: "When the Second Master was young, he was a good archer and was very good at riding and shooting."

Xia Houqing nodded when he heard this: "Yes, it's a pity that my second uncle has never touched a bow and arrow since he fell ill."

Xia Houqing pushed Xia Houyi behind the screen, but Xia Houyi was not willing to lie down on the bed.

"Just feel your pulse like this."

Xia Houqing said to Mr. Qiu and Granny Nie.

Mr. Qiu first went to feel Xia Houyi's pulse and also checked his body.

In the meantime, he needs to take off his clothes.

Xia Houyi seemed to have been numb for a long time and was not ashamed of being exposed in front of others without dignity.

Su Xiaoxiao is a doctor, so naturally there is nothing to be embarrassed about.

However, Xia Houqing looked at Su Xiaoxiao with some surprise.

The folk customs of Qianshan Island are different from those of Dazhou and other countries. There are many Jianghu sects here, and there are many women who do not stick to trivial matters.

But at Su Xiaoxiao's age, it is really rare for someone to be so calm.

Xia Houyi is only in her early fifties, younger than Mr. Qiu and Granny Nie, but she looks as if she is on the verge of death.

After Su Xiaoxiao came to another world, it was the first time he saw such a thin and decayed body.

It's hard to imagine that such a body hides the huge ambition to deal with the Wei family.

Could it be that I made a mistake?

Su Xiaoxiao muttered secretly.

No.

Don't be fooled by appearances.

But I still can't figure it out, why did he deal with the Wei family?

If he thinks about it differently, what benefits can he get from dealing with the Wei family?

Su Xiaoxiao couldn't understand.

She inadvertently looked sideways at Wei Ting, only to find that Wei Ting was concentrating on the landscape paintings on the wall.

At this time, Su Xiaoxiao's advantage became apparent.

She came to Xia Houqing obediently and said softly: "My eldest brother likes to collect antique paintings. I didn't expect that the second prince also likes them."

Everything can reach the sky!

Xia Houqing suddenly became interested: "These paintings are not antiques. When I was young, my second uncle liked to travel to the island. He would draw the beautiful scenery he encountered along the way."

Su Xiaoxiao glanced at Wei Ting out of the corner of her eye, with admiration on her face: "It turns out to be the Second Master's painting. It's so good!"

Wei Ting is not a doctor, so he does not need to stay in front of the bed.

He simply walked up to the portrait openly.

Xia Houqing didn't say anything.

After Mr. Qiu finished checking, it was Granny Ghost's turn.

"come over."

Granny Nie’s novel about Su Xiao.

"Yes, mother-in-law!"

Su Xiaoxiao placed the medical kit on the stool, took a handkerchief and put it under Xia Houqing's wrist.

Grandma Nie felt her pulse and said to Su Xiaoxiao: "You should also come and take a look."

"yes."

Su Xiaoxiao knelt down and put her fingertips on Xia Houyi's wrist.

She clearly felt that Xia Houyi was staring at her.

That feeling of being stared at by a dead person came back.

Su Xiaoxiao had faced many powerful enemies, but no one had ever given her such a chilling feeling.

She put aside distracting thoughts and concentrated on feeling Xia Houyi's pulse.

His pulse showed that this person had run out of oil, and no matter how much medicine he took, he could barely maintain his life.

His failure is irreversible.

Perhaps this is the terrible thing about this disease.

Once you get sick, you can only live and wait to die.

What's even more torturous is that this disease causes pain all over the body.

Mr. Qiu looked at Su Xiaoxiao calmly.

He had learned Su Xiaoxiao's medical skills, and was not inferior to him or Nie Jinfeng.

Su Xiaoxiao shook his head slightly.

She still didn't know what kind of disease Xia Houyi had.

"There are rumors that it's a curse."

After coming out, Granny Nie told Su Xiaoxiao.

Grandma Nie came to the next room on the pretext that she wanted to discuss treatment with Mr. Qiu.

Su Xiaoxiao accompanied us.

"Curse?" Su Xiaoxiao didn't understand.

Granny Nie said: "When I first came to the Nie family, Nie Yangshan's grandfather was still alive. Unfortunately, the city lord at that time also fell ill. A doctor offered to go out to the island to find medicine for him, and Nie Yangshan's grandfather came with him as a guard.

They left Qianshan Island. In the process of searching for medicine, they heard some secrets. The ancestors of the Xiahou family betrayed the monarch and were cursed by the imperial master. Since then, the Xiahou family has suffered from strange diseases for generations."

"Is this rumor a little too ridiculous?"

Su Xiaoxiao didn't believe in the curse.

But the Xiahou family betrayed the monarch...this is a bit interesting.

Qianshan Island has no monarch.

If the rumors are true, who did the ancestors of the Xiahou family betray? Which country's monarch?

Of course, it's possible that none of these rumors are true.
To be continued...
