Triplets: Lucky Mommy is a Beautiful Badass

Chapter 71: Inside the Temple of the Koi Fish God 5

Qi Qingyao shrugged and said with a ghost of a smile, “That’s why you lost your memory and ended up in such a sorry state. Because you’re not superstitious.”

Jiang Yeqian, “…” She just had to poke him where it hurt!

Qi Qingyao asked Si Jin, “What about you?”

Si Jin said, “I don’t have anything to ask for.”

Qi Qingyao beamed at his horse-face mask. “What a nice kid, you have no desires! You’re noble and pure in mind. Unlike me, I’m a normal materialistic mortal. All I ever want is money!”

Si Jin said, “You asked for money just now, right? I think you’re gonna strike it rich soon!”

“…” Qi Qingyao looked at him suspiciously.

She thought, ‘He and his big mouth brought a ton of trouble before. Now he’s saying I’ll strike it rich? Will it work?’

When the three toddlers were about to step out of the temple, a few people dressed like guards suddenly walked out of the side hall, swords hanging from their waists. Their get-up made Qi Qingyao blink for a bit, and she overheard their conversation.

“The Heir might not survive this time.”

“If he dies, we’ll be buried alive with him.”

“But we can’t find any good physicians in this backwater place… Sigh!”

“We came all the way here from the capital city because the Marquis said he wanted to be closer to the koi temple. He was hoping the Koi God’s luck would help the Heir recover! ~~He even said that we might encounter some miraculous physician who could treat the Heir’s illness. Wouldn’t that be nice?”

“Well, I hope that works too.”

“Just now, I prayed to the Koi God for a miraculous doctor who can heal our Heir! ~”

…

The men had already walked some distance away as they chatted.

An Heir?

Money?

A disease to treat?

People who could afford to pay for treatment?!

A plan occurred to Qi Qingyao and she hurriedly caught up to the men, starting a conversation with them.

“Are you guys looking for a physician?”

One of the guards looked the girl up and down. She was dressed in plain clothes and held a small bag, but she was pretty as a picture with large expressive eyes that seemed to come alive. She looked especially adorable and intelligent. The guard gave her a fist in palm salute and said politely, “Young lady, do you know a miraculous physician anywhere?”

Qi Qingyao patted her chest confidently. “I don’t want to toot my own horn, but I’d like to visit the Heir and volunteer my diagnosis.”

“You are a miraculous physician?” the guard asked.

“In the flesh!” Qi Qingyao said breezily, “I heard that your Heir is already on his deathbed with one foot on the coffin. What do you stand to lose by letting me try? If I do save him, your Heir will get another lease at his sorry life! Ah, I didn’t mean to say that! Sorry, it just slipped out! Hahaha!”

The guard’s expression shifted when she said “sorry life”. “Young miss, you sure sound confident. What’s your name? I’m not sure if I’ve heard of your title before.”

Qi Qingyao did not panic either, asking calmly, “Does that perchance mean you have approached every famous physician in the land?”

“That’s right.” The guard’s tone was a little high-and-mighty. “We’ve approached our Northern Liang’s Godly Physician Lu Li and Demon Physician Jiang Xun, Eastern Ling’s top physician Gu Yue, and even a few renowned physicians in Southern Ming. We’ve asked seven of the continent’s top ten physicians, but none of them could treat our Heir’s illness.”

“If even the famous ones can’t do it, why do you insist on knowing my name and title? Low-key people like me don’t care about rankings. That’s so lowbrow.”

Qi Qingyao gave the guard a look of contempt, her attitude turning high-and-mighty as well. “Fine, if you want your Heir to die so badly, pretend I never said anything.”
