Chapter 353 More than I thought
The next day, Wang Xinyao got up early. When she opened the door, she saw the three sisters of the Xie family.
Obviously, they had been waiting at the door early, waiting for Wang Xinyao to see them first after she got up.
"My dear, you are finally back!" Xie Xiaohua rushed into Wang Xinyao's arms and called her affectionately.
Xie Erhua also immediately stepped forward and took Wang Xinyao's hand: "Little girl, we miss you so much!"
Wang Xinyao put her arms around them and said, "I missed you too, so I came back to see you. Look, Xiaohua and Erhua have grown taller! Let me see how strong you are."
When Xie Erhua and Xie Xiaohua heard this, they immediately became excited and wanted to show their strength.
Xie Xiaohua was the first to step forward, waving her little fist in an imaginative manner. Although her movements were still a bit immature, it was obvious that she was trying very hard.
Xie Erhua was not to be outdone and showed off her boxing skills.
"Little girl, I am a ninth-level warrior!"
"My dear, I have reached the second level of Grandmaster cultivation.
Wang Xinyao looked at their performance, nodded with satisfaction, and praised them with a smile: "You are all great, and you have made great progress!"
At this time, Xie Dahua, who had been standing quietly by the side, said, "Little girl, I have made progress too."
"Well, not bad. After not seeing you for a year, my Dahua has grown into a graceful young lady!" Wang Xinyao walked forward, gently stroked Xie Dahua's head and said, "Dahua, you have always been my pride."
"Thank you for the compliment, little sister!" Xie Dahua felt a little embarrassed by the compliment and immediately changed the subject: "Little sister, why didn't Master and Uncle come back with you?"
The uncle Xie Dahua mentioned was naturally Chen Jingyuan, but she had not told them Chen Jingyuan's true identity yet!
"Your master won't be returning to Xiejia Village for the time being. He will go to Li Country in a few days. As for your uncle, he's been away for so long, it's time for him to go back to his hometown!"
After saying that, Wang Xinyao looked at Xie Erhua and Xie Xiaohua again and said, "Your sister and I have something to discuss. You should go practice first, and then I'll take you out to play later.
"Yes, girl, when you are done, remember to call us!" After saying that, the two little girls left happily.
When Xie Dahua heard the girl say this, she couldn't help but feel a little nervous!
"Mother, what's the matter?" Xie Dahua asked nervously.
Wang Xinyao replied with a serious face, "Dahua, your master has to go to Li Country to fight against Japan. But as long as there is war, there will be casualties. Casualties require a medical team. How many people do you have now?"
"My dear, our medical team is currently organized into five battalions, each with 100 people, so the current number is 500!"
"Five hundred people? That's more than I expected. Dahua, you did a great job!" Wang Xinyao praised.
Xie Dahua blushed slightly and replied with her head down, "This isn't entirely my credit. During the time I was away, it was thanks to Master Chen that we were helped!"
"Oh, Master Chen is indeed good!"
As soon as Wang Xinyao finished speaking, Xie Dahua's face turned even redder.
Wang Xinyao was quick to sense that something was wrong, and she was startled. "Chen Liangxian and Xie Dahua? The two of them..."
No, it's impossible. Xie Dahua is not yet fourteen years old, and Chen Liangxian is only seventeen years old.
But, but?
This was in ancient times. If a girl was not engaged before the age of fifteen, she would be laughed at behind her back.
As long as you are thirteen years old, you can talk about marriage. Oh my God, what a sinful era this is.
It seems that she has to stop and have a good talk with Xie Dahua about love and marriage between men and women.
"Mother, mother..." Xie Dahahua's voice sounded again, and Wang Xinyao woke up from her thoughts.
Wang Xinyao said seriously, "Dahua, you are a grown-up girl now. In the future, matchmakers may come to your house frequently to propose marriage for you.
But you are a medical student, so you must understand that I don't want you to get married too early before you turn eighteen. It's not good for your health, do you understand?"
"Yes, little girl, I understand. I will listen to you."
"Okay, Dahua has always been a sensible child. She knows what she can and cannot do. There's really no need for me to worry about her."
Wang Xinyao changed the subject again: "Now let's get down to business. Go and notify everyone on the medical team to meet up here in an hour. I have something to say."
"Okay, girl, I'll do it right away." Xie Dahua immediately left the yard.
Taking advantage of this free time, Wang Xinyao planned to meet with the village chief Xie Zhengyi. But just as she was about to step out of the courtyard, she was blocked by Gu Ze.
“Miss Wang, I want to see my cousin, can you take me to him?”
"Mr. Gu, please go find Shopkeeper Chen. I have something to go out for now."
"Shopkeeper Chen said he's busy, he has to take care of the kids!"
Wang Xinyao thought that she hadn't seen Chen Liangxian since she came back last night, and she guessed that he had gone to the back mountain to practice.
"Mr. Gu, I'm not free at the moment. Please wait. I will bring him to see you before tomorrow night." After saying that, Wang Xinyao strode out.
Gu Ze stood there helplessly, watching Wang Xinyao's figure disappear from his sight before walking back to the yard.
Capital City, Prince's Mansion.
After being released from house arrest, Gou Chunmei went straight to the study of Crown Prince Zhao Haoxuan.
She had only one thought in her mind, which was to meet the prince immediately and tell him her deep affection for him.
She walked quickly across the courtyard and finally arrived at the door of the study. She took a deep breath and knocked gently on the door.
"Come in." Zhao Haoxuan's cold voice came from inside.
Gou Chunmei pushed open the door and walked in.
She saw Prince Zhao Haoxuan sitting at the desk, looking at her expressionlessly.
"Your Highness, I..." Gou Chunmei's voice choked as she opened her mouth.
"What's the matter?" Zhao Haoxuan's tone was still cold.
Gou Chunmei gathered herself together and mustered up the courage to speak: "Your Highness, no matter how you treated me, I love you deeply. For you, I would even sacrifice my own life."
After saying that, she fell to her knees on the ground, tears streaming down her face.
However, Zhao Haoxuan remained unmoved. He just looked at Gou Chunmei coldly and said, "Get out!"
These three words were like three sharp swords, piercing Gou Chunmei's heart.
She never thought that her heartfelt confession would be met with such a response.
Gou Chunmei looked at Zhao Haoxuan in disbelief.
She didn't understand why her sincerity couldn't win any sympathy from the prince.
"Your Highness, you...how could you do this to me?" Gou Chunmei asked crying.
