Chapter 336: Chapter 336: Unspoken Secrets

As soon as Mu Feiyan heard the words “Chinese medicine,” she immediately turned back, grabbed her mother’s arm, frowned, and said coquettishly, “Mom, I don’t want to drink any Chinese medicine! It’s so bitter!”

Bitter? Heh! You brought this upon yourself, you can’t blame me!

Wu Xiaoyu feigned contemplation for a moment, then said solemnly, “Given her current condition, taking a few doses of tranquilizing Chinese medicine would be very beneficial!”

“Then please write a prescription for her!” Mu Zhuangfei said without further ado, calling Li Qianqian upstairs to get paper and pen.

Seeing her father had spoken, Mu Feiyan dared not object further. She let go of her mother’s arm and angrily sat on the sofa.

While she was glaring angrily at Wu Xiaoyu, Li Qianqian had already brought paper and pen downstairs, excitedly handing them over.

“Here you go!” Li Qianqian handed Wu Xiaoyu the paper and pen, her face full of expectation for praise.

But instead of praise, she received a few fierce glares from her cousin, and she quickly hid next to her uncle, looking aggrieved.

Wu Xiaoyu wrote a tranquilizing prescription and handed it to Jiang Yun, while also giving some tips on how to brew the medicine.

“Okay… I understand!” Jiang Yun replied to Wu Xiaoyu’s instructions, then glanced at Mu Feiyan and Li Qianqian.

After a slight hesitation, she said, “Fei, take Qianqian upstairs to rest. You’ve just had acupuncture, you need more rest.”

Mu Feiyan was about to refuse but saw her mother’s stern look, brooking no argument.

This made her even more puzzled. Her mother had never really been angry with her before. What was she up to? Though confused, she still took Li Qianqian upstairs.

Wu Xiaoyu, seeing that Jiang Yun had deliberately sent Mu Feiyan and Li Qianqian away, asked, “Is there something you want to talk to me about?”

Jiang Yun glanced at Mu Zhuangfei, her expression suddenly turning desolate. She hesitantly said, “Wu Xiaoyu, can you treat infertility?”

As soon as she said this, Mu Zhuangfei’s face changed, and he coughed awkwardly a few times, then wanted to go upstairs.

Jiang Yun grabbed him and said discontentedly, “If you keep avoiding it, do you still want a son or not?”

Want a son? Wu Xiaoyu couldn’t help but feel a bit embarrassed!

Though he was skilled in medicine and had treated many patients, even for impotence, he had never discussed such a topic in front of a couple.

Moreover, Jiang Yun must be around forty, right? She… she still dared to have children?

Mu Zhuangfei sneaked a glance at Wu Xiaoyu and said in a low voice, “Can’t you two just talk about this?”

“Come on! We’re all like family here, what’s there to be shy about?” Jiang Yun tugged at Mu Zhuangfei’s sleeve and smiled.

Like family? Sis, your change is pretty fast. When we first met, you were very cautious of me, and now, a day later, we’re suddenly family?

If that’s your standard for family, it’s pretty low!

Wu Xiaoyu stood up, cleared his throat, and persuaded, “Infertility is not some… shameful disease, many people suffer from it!”

His words made Mu Zhuangfei feel even more embarrassed. Imagine, a young and robust man discussing infertility with a middle-aged man, isn’t that an insult?

Luckily, Mu Zhuangfei was an understanding person, knowing Wu Xiaoyu meant well and wasn’t deliberately mocking him, so he didn’t take the words to heart.

“Old Mu, if you keep this up, I’ll tell the old man!” Jiang Yun threatened.

At the mention of the old man, Mu Zhuangfei deflated like a punctured balloon and compromised, “Alright… alright! Just let him take a look, okay?”

“That’s the spirit!” Jiang Yun pressed Mu Zhuangfei back onto the sofa and smiled at Wu Xiaoyu, “Then I’ll trouble you again!”

Mu Feiyan, being the beloved daughter of the family, had never truly been scolded by her parents. Even Elder Mu doted on her.

She had never seen her mother frown angrily at her. There must be something secretive she wanted to discuss with Wu Xiaoyu.

But her mother just met Wu Xiaoyu yesterday. What secret could they have? And why send her away? Could it be that Qianqian told her mom about last night’s incident?

Mu Feiyan pulled Li Qianqian to the second-floor corner, stopped, and suspiciously eyed her, asking, “Qianqian, tell me the truth. Did you tell my mom about last night?”

Li Qianqian, although playful, knew right from wrong and understood propriety. How could she have told her aunt about her cousin undressing in front of boys?

“I didn’t! I’m not stupid, why would I tell Aunt?” Li Qianqian pouted in dissatisfaction.

Mu Feiyan, afraid her parents might hear from downstairs, quickly covered Li Qianqian’s mouth and hushed her:

“Keep your voice down! You really didn’t tell my mom? Then what do they have to talk about with Wu Xiaoyu?”

Li Qianqian frowned, pried her hand away, and said angrily, “Maybe Aunt likes Wu Xiaoyu and wants you to marry him!”

Marry him? Upon hearing this, Mu Feiyan’s imagination ran wild. Wu Xiaoyu had cured her grandfather’s stubborn illness and had shown great kindness to the Mu family.

Recently, her father had also called him to help with military matters. Were they seeking his help or repaying him?

Knowing her father, he would never use personal gain to repay someone, especially not in military matters. So, they must be seeking his help?

Not only did he cure her grandfather, but he also helped her father. Could her mother really be thinking of repaying him with her marriage?

Wu Xiaoyu was just a farmer, though his medical skills were remarkable. Using her marriage as repayment was too much!

Besides, hadn’t her mother been trying to arrange a marriage with the Hu family’s son? She wouldn’t change her mind so easily.

What on earth was her mother seeking from Wu Xiaoyu? Could it be… her mother had a serious disease and wanted Wu Xiaoyu to treat her?

The more Mu Feiyan thought about it, the more worried she became. She dragged Qianqian to the second-floor corner to eavesdrop.

However, when she heard from her mother that her father had infertility, her heart felt a mix of emotions.

But when she found out that her parents had been planning to have another son, she was furious.

She always believed her parents were open-minded and didn’t have a preference for having a boy, unlike other families.

To her surprise, it wasn’t that they didn’t want one; they just couldn’t have one!

Just as she was about to go downstairs to confront them, she heard her mother stammer, “He… he also has impotence, he finishes quickly…”

Originally furious, Mu Feiyan froze at her mother’s words, then shame and anger filled her heart. She pulled Li Qianqian and ran back to her room.

Downstairs, the couple was engrossed in consulting Wu Xiaoyu, unaware of the upstairs commotion, still waiting for Wu Xiaoyu’s response.

Wu Xiaoyu glanced slyly at Mu Zhuangfei, unable to suppress a smile. With a physique like his, how could he have impotence?

“How about I check his pulse first?” Wu Xiaoyu sat beside Mu Zhuangfei and suggested without waiting for a response.

The couple naturally did not refuse. Mu Zhuangfei rolled up his sleeve and extended his wrist to Wu Xiaoyu, letting him examine it.
