Chapter 120: Her Sister

if a man hadn't died and truly became an official in the imperial court, how could he have remained unmarried and without children all these yearsIf he were to marry and have children in the capital,...Watching her figure disappear, the adult snorted, "If I hadn't been in a good mood today because of my son's birth, for her attitude, I would have punished her severely! I am an official appointed by the court, how could I allow her to be so disrespectful in front of me!"

The midwife, upon hearing this, quickly lowered her head, wishing she could leave right now.

Then the wife sighed, "Husband, that young lady saved our lives. How can you hold a grudge against her Besides, she didn't know your position, so it's perfectly normal for her not to show proper respect."

Having said that, she turned to the maidservant standing there. “Now is not the time to dwell on that young lady. Sir, how do you want to handle this maidservant”

Mentioned this, that adult instantly darkened his face, walked over and fiercely slapped the maid.

Then summon the attendants to drag this maidservant away and have her executed!

After An Xue Tang came out, she immediately went to find the medicine boy. When the medicine boy saw her, he quickly came up to her and bowed, "Thank you, Miss, for saving my life."

An Xuetang raised an eyebrow, "What's your name"

"The little one is called Xiao Liu."

An Xuetang, clutching the silver in her hand, stared at the boy's face with a dazed expression.

A series of images suddenly flashed through my mind.

In the scene, she was still in the 21st century. The first little girl to greet her after being taken from the orphanage to that organization looked exactly like the apothecary in front of her.

That little girl took the initiative to reach out her hand and greeted her with a smile, "Hello, sister, my name is Xiao Liu. Are you also from the orphanage"

An Xuetang forgot how she had responded to the little girl at the time. All she knew was that in the days that followed, within the organization, the little girl would constantly follow her around like a shadow.

One bite at a time, she's treated like a big sister. When there's good food, they'll save it for her. When she's upset, she'll run to her bed and confess everything, whether the other person wants to listen or not.

Back then, An Xuetang felt affection from her, both friendship and familial love.

But one day after they grew up, on their first mission, though they had promised to meet again, she never came back.

And thus, An Xuetang lost her only friend and only family member!

Later, she didn't socialize much anymore. Then another girl came along, with eyes that looked very much like hers. An Xuetang took the initiative to approach that girl for the first time.

An Xuetang still thought she had found Little Six's shadow in that girl, but unexpectedly, she ended up dying at the hands of that girl!

She was never his little six after all.

In this world, An Xuetang actually met someone who looked exactly like Xiao Liu.

Yes, this medicine boy looked exactly like her younger sister Xiao Liu. The only difference was that Xiao Liu in the 21st century was a girl, while this medicine boy...was a boy.

Being stared at by An Xuetang, Xiao Liu pursed his lips, "Miss, I...Is there something on my face"

An Xuetang came back to her senses, she still couldn't accept that her little sixth had turned into a boy. She subconsciously looked at Little Sixth's neck.

Suddenly burst into laughter.

Xiao Liu was dumbfounded. He was about to say something when An Xue Tang suddenly reached out and went straight for the (chest) area where someone was bothering her.

Little Six:

……”

This girl looks so proper, how come she's acting like a hooligan in public!

Xiao Liu hurriedly took two steps back, protecting her chest with both hands, "Miss... you... you... how can you be so shameless."

An Xuetang curled her lips into a smile, "You're such a young girl, why do you have to disguise yourself as a man"

Little Liu, who had been caught red-handed, darted his eyes around nervously. "Hush, miss, speak softly," he whispered. "It's a matter of my being a woman disguised as a man, and it can't be known by anyone else."

"Why"

"If others knew I was a woman, they wouldn't come here to get medicine."

"What does this have to do with anything" An Xue Tang frowned. "What does it matter if you're a boy or a girl when it comes to fetching medicine"

"Little Six sighed, "Miss, you don't often come to town, do you These days, if an apothecary was a woman, patients would think our clinic wasn't competent. No one would want a woman to dispense medicine; they'd be afraid I'd get it wrong."

"Then would you be wrong"

"Of course not!" Xiao Liu confidently spoke, "I've been learning about medicinal herbs with my father since I was little. There's no way I could get it wrong. But whether or not I get it right is one thing, and whether or not others believe me is another."

"So are you going to dress as a man for the rest of your life"

"Oh, if I could spend my life here dispensing medicine, I could disguise myself as a man forever. Unfortunately, our apothecary shop probably won't last two days. I expect to be driven out."

An Xuetang frowned, "Why"

"Miss, look at our clinic, there's no one here. Do you know why"

An Xuetang turned her head and looked around, sure enough, there was no one.

Xiao Liu continued, "The doctor at our clinic passed away a few days ago. There's no doctor left in the clinic to see patients."

"Did that doctor take in an apprentice"

"No, the doctor has a son, but our young master's medical skills are not as good as mine. A while back, he misdiagnosed someone's pulse and almost killed them. After this incident became public, no one came to the clinic anymore. So, our young master went to the midwife and is planning to sell the clinic."

An Xue Tang raised an eyebrow, "Your young master wants to sell this medical hall"

"Yeah, he doesn't have the ability to manage the clinic anyway. It might as well be sold."

"Do you know how much silver he wants to make a move"furrowed slightly, but a touch of sadness arose in his heart.The more she behaved this way, the more it showed that she had experienced more danger, forcing her to become more sensible.Thinking of thi...
