Chapter 19: Waiting for an Opportunity 

Xu Qing didn't say anything to Xu Jiangxi. After all, it was useless to say anything now. She turned to look at Xu Zhi, whose face was swollen, and said with heartache, "Little Zhi, come here and let me take a look."

Xu Zhi's ears had been feeling a ringing for the past two days and could not hear clearly. He looked at Xu Qing in a daze for a while and only understood when he saw her waving at him. Then, he carefully approached Xu Qing. He had been very careful these past few days, especially when Old Master Xu was around. He would tremble in fear and could not control himself.

Xu Qing frowned when she saw Xu Zhi's expression. Could it be...

She carefully examined Xu Zhi and her expression darkened. Xu Zhi's eardrums were already slightly ruptured. If she ignored him, he would definitely go deaf!

"Xiao Qing, how is Xiao Zhi?" Qu Feng tensed up when she saw Xu Qing's expression change. Qu Feng trusted Xu Qing very much, even if Xu Qing only gained medical skills not long ago.

Xu Jiangxi didn't know about this. He was only puzzled, and no one explained their doubts to him!

"Xiao Zhi, did you hear my voice?" Xu Qing's voice was not loud, but the others in the room heard her clearly.

Xu Zhi stared at Xu Qing in confusion and did not answer.

Xu Jiangxi and Qu Feng panicked.

"I'll write a prescription. Mother, go to town and get the herbs. You can't stop for seven days in a row. Otherwise, Little Zhi will be deaf!" Xu Qing said seriously.

Qu Feng's body was on the verge of collapse. Although Xu Jiangxi did not know why Xu Qing knew medicine, he heard that her son might go deaf.

"Boohoo, don't let my brother become deaf..." Xu Xiang sobbed.

"Damn it!" Xu Huai had a look of self-reproach. If not for the fact that he had brought him food, Xu Zhi would not have been discovered by them for hiding something, and he would not have been beaten up!

"What... what's going on? Didn't Doctor Zhu say that he's fine?" Xu Jiangxi's tall body started to sway.

Qu Feng cried bitterly. "Xu Jiangxi, this is your father's fault! What will happen to my son..."

Xu Zhi looked at everyone in confusion with anxious eyes. What had happened?

Xu Jiangxi pursed his lips. For the first time, he did not berate Qu Feng. However, he still asked Xu Qing in disbelief, "Is this true?"

Qu Feng saw that Xu Jiangxi actually suspected Xu Qing and immediately scolded, "How can you not believe Little Qing? Little Qing is the divine doctor's disciple!"

Xu Jiangxi was enlightened and his eyes were filled with guilt. Xu Qing ignored him and wrote down the prescription before handing it to Qu Feng. She then took out some money from the bed. "Mother, take this money and get the medicine. After taking these medicines, Xiao Zhi will be fine."

"Okay!" Qu Feng's hand that was holding the money was trembling. This money should have been paid by Old Master Xu! However, Qu Feng knew that they definitely wouldn't pay this money!

Xu Jiangxi's expression darkened. His heart had really turned cold.

Xu Qing looked at Xu Jiangxi and was quite satisfied. At least this man was not completely hopeless. She would think of a way to deal with the rest. Now, she was only missing an opportunity!

Perhaps it was because they were afraid of Bai Xian, but neither the Xu family nor the villagers had visited during this period of time. The villagers probably did not dare to take the risk, and it was unknown what Old Master Xu and his family were up to.
