Zhang Xiaoniu knew of Luo Wanqing. The young lord had woken up thanks to her, and the title of divine physician had taken root in his mind. He was very excited by Qi Zhenzhen's words.
"Divine Physician Luo, please come in, please come in," Zhang Xiaoniu respectfully invited her inside. Da Feng Novel Network
"It will be enough for them to go in and feel her pulse. You stay outside with me," Gu Sinian called out to Zhang Xiaoniu, who was about to follow them in. He was afraid that if Song Mingyue had any problems, Zhang Xiaoniu would directly blame Qi Zhenzhen in his excitement.
Zhang Xiaoniu didn't understand. He thought that the divine physician was a woman, and it wasn't appropriate for him, a grown man, to go in. With Zhenzhen there, nothing could go wrong.
Luo Wanqing took Song Mingyue's pulse. The pulse was steady and strong, and she found no abnormalities.
"Mingyue, do you still remember the three people disguised as men you met at my house before your wedding?" Qi Zhenzhen asked. "Before they left, they gave me a jade hairpin, which I then gave to you."
Song Mingyue tilted her head and thought for a moment. "I remember."
"Where is that jade hairpin?" Qi Zhenzhen's expression was somewhat agitated.
"The jade hairpin? I think it's in the jewelry box."
"Find it."
"Zhenzhen, why do I feel you're a bit strange? Is there something wrong with that hairpin?" Song Mingyue asked in surprise.
"Yes, there's something wrong with that jade hairpin."
"What problem could a jade hairpin have?" Song Mingyue asked as she rummaged through the jewelry box.
"I can't explain it clearly in a moment. Just find it."
Song Mingyue poured out everything from the jewelry box, but she couldn't find the jade hairpin.
"Strange, I clearly put it in the jewelry box, why is it gone? Where did it go?" Song Mingyue frowned and tried to recall carefully, but she had no clue.
"What are you rummaging through?" Madam Yu came in with a basket of vegetables. "You're all over the place."
"The jade hairpin Zhenzhen gave me before, I remember putting it in the jewelry box," Song Mingyue mumbled.
"You!" Madam Yu chided her. "Is it that all-white jade hairpin? You took it out when you were tidying up a few days ago and said it was fragile, so you asked me to put it away, right? I put it in the west wing." Madam Yu said with a smile. "What, do you want to wear it again? Wait, Mom will find it for you."
Song Mingyue slapped her forehead. "No wonder I couldn't find it. Look at my memory..."
"Mingyue, you've never worn it, have you?" Qi Zhenzhen asked.
Song Mingyue looked a little embarrassed. "The jade hairpin looked too precious, and I was afraid I might break it accidentally, so I never wore it."
Qi Zhenzhen breathed a sigh of relief. It was good that she hadn't worn it.
Madam Yu found the hairpin. "Is this it?"
Qi Zhenzhen nodded. "It is."
Luo Wanqing took the hairpin and examined it closely. She found a fine crack near the tail of the jade hairpin. With a twist, the hairpin split into two halves, revealing a hollow interior. Inside was a small, millet-sized object the same color as the jade hairpin. Upon closer inspection, the jade color had a small black dot in the center.
"When it reaches a certain temperature, the outer layer will melt, and the small black dot inside will hatch," Luo Wanqing said. "This is likely the harmful thing."
"I'll take the item. Do you still want the hairpin? Judging by its quality, it's quite good," Luo Wanqing said with a smile.
"No, Xu Miaoniang is so cunning. Who knows if this hairpin has other problems? Besides, it contained that thing. Just thinking about it makes my skin crawl," Qi Zhenzhen said with disgust. "It's just a jade hairpin. I'll find a better one for Mingyue later."
Song Mingyue shook her head. "I don't like this kind of thing. If you want to give me something, give me a colorful gemstone. I prefer things that sparkle!"
