"Of course, when have I ever lied to you?"
"Right," Xiuzhi nodded, a blissful smile spreading across her face.
"Let's go, let's invite the doctor over."
The two talked as they walked towards Doctor Xu's house.
The Mo family
Old Lady Mo was cursing up a storm in the courtyard: "That wretched girl, takes her an age to dump a bit of chicken shit. Wait till she gets back, I'll skin her alive."
She was spewing her fiery tirade when,
a man's voice came from behind her, asking, "Whose skin does Old Lady Mo wish to peel off?"
"None of your damn business!" With so many troubles at home, Old Lady Mo was truly seething with rage. Hearing the question, she responded with vicious hostility as she turned to look. But to her shock, her anger promptly turned to sweat, and she quickly plastered a smile on her face, fawningly saying, "Well, I'll be! If it isn't Scholar Mo, what a rare guest."
It turned out Mo Shaoxing and Mo Xiuzhi had arrived with Doctor Xu.
