“I taught him,” Su Qingyue replied.

The guys exchanged remarks, having heard long ago that Su Qingyue knew medicine, claiming she had learned from a few medical books left by old Scholar Huang and had received guidance from an expert during her travels.

Such mysterious matters were always met with disbelief.

It was hard for them to believe that a woman could possess such brilliant medical skill.

Now, seeing Miss Tao sleeping so deeply on the bed and Chuan unharmed beside her, some began to harbor doubts.

“Oh no, my child!” As soon as Gramma Shi entered the yard, she rushed towards the crowd, squeezed through, and upon seeing Shi Fang on the floor of the side room, she immediately burst into wails, “My son, how did you end up beaten like this!”

Grandpa Shi, also known as Shi Fang’s father, also stumbled in, “Fang, what happened to you!”

Shi Fang was the second in the Shi Family, with his older brother Shi Cai, younger brother Shi Mu, and younger sister Shi Shanzao.

Shi Shanzao had long had a crush on Yuchuan.

The whole family hurried in.

They had already heard at the doorway that a thief had entered the Xiao Family, and they had thought it would be good if the Xiao Family got robbed.

But who would have thought the thief would turn out to be one of their own!

Su Qingyue saw the house was nearly filled with villagers and began to usher them one by one outside the rooms, “There is someone still asleep inside.

You all go out, don’t ruin Miss Tao’s reputation.”

Xiao Yuchuan found a long rope and tied the half-dead Shi Fang, dragging him outside the courtyard.

So everyone followed him into the yard.

Naturally, there were those who were lascivious or nosey peeping at Beauty Tao on the bed in the room, but the quilt was so tightly drawn that all they saw was her head and no hint of springtime splendor.

Su Qingyue said indifferently, “There’s no need for wild guesses, Shi Fang, that scoundrel, didn’t take any advantage and ended up like that ‘ghost’ on the ground.”

Xiao Yuchuan spoke, “Everyone go back, tomorrow, I’ll take Shi Fang to the government office.”

“Really, Shi Fang has no sense of propriety.

He’s useless on regular days, and now he’s even taken up thievery, trying to take advantage of Miss Tao.

Isn’t he asking for death?” Aunt Liu, from the village who had followed over, said.

“Exactly, once he’s in the government office, he’s bound to be jailed for a few years.

His life is over…”

The guys spoke up one after another.

In the side room, Su Qingyue closed the door, pinched Tao Meijiao’s philtrum, and pressed a couple of acupoints on her head.

Tao Meijiao woke up, “Eh?

Xiao Yue…” she sat up groggily, “How are you up?

Why is my head so dizzy…

What’s all that noise outside?”

“A thief broke in, drugged us, and tried to take advantage.

I figure Shi Fang only wanted to take advantage of you, Meijiao.

With Beauty Tao here, my face covered in freckles, I surely wouldn’t catch his eye.

But since we were both on the bed, it’s easier to say it was both of us, so as not to scare you,” Su Qingyue explained.

“The villagers all came over, and the thief is tied up in the yard.”

“Ah!” Tao Meijiao hugged her shoulders and quickly checked herself for any harm, relieved to find none.

Smiling, Su Qingyue reassured, “With me here, I won’t let anything happen to you.”

Moved by her words, Tao Meijiao expressed her gratitude, “Xiao Yue, you are so good to me.”

“It’s my fault for frightening you.”

“Nonsense, when a thief comes to rob a place, it’s not like if you don’t want them to come, they won’t come,” Tao Meijiao got off the bed, got dressed, and stormed angrily towards outside the courtyard,
