The Substitute Madam Amazes the World Once More

Mo Zhu's mother remarried after her father went missing, and she had lived in the countryside with her elderly grandmother ever since. The girl who had no parents wanted to protect herself. Therefore, to avoid getting bullied, she had turned wild since she was a child—she played truant, fought, and drank. There was nothing she did not know how to do. She was a problematic student in the eyes of her teachers, a big sister in the eyes of her classmates, and a hooligan in the eyes of her acquaintances. When she was eighteen, her birth mother retrieved her to live at her stepfather's house. Everyone in the village claimed that she was going to live a happy life in the city, that her mother had not forgotten that she had a daughter here. "Mo Zhu, the Huo family is one of the most powerful families in the country. It's your good fortune to replace your younger sister in marrying into the Huo family. You have to cherish this opportunity," explained her mother patiently as she held Mo Zhu's hand. Mo Zhu's eyes were filled with sorrow. At that instant, she knew why her mother thought of her. Inviting her over to the city to enjoy life was simply a figment of her imagination—she was simply an exploitable piece of trash that her mother could sacrifice. The Eldest Young Master of the Huo family fell severely ill recently. He did not just develop a twisted personality, but also became violent and cruel. His face had been completely ruined and he had only two years left to live. Mo Zhu's younger sister was supposed to be Eldest Young Master Huo's fiancée, but the ruined young master was no longer a suitable match. Fearing the Huo family's influences, her mother did not dare to cancel the marriage, thus she sent Mo Zhu under the bus to protect her younger sister. However, was Mo Zhu truly just a useless simpleton who knew how to smoke, drink, and fight? No! That was simply a disguise she used for self-defense since she was a girl without parents. After marrying into the Huo family, she stopped smoking, drinking, and fighting. She became the best daughter-in-law a mother-in-law could ever have; the best wife a husband could ever have. What never occurred to anyone was she no longer flunked in her studies. In fact, she transformed into a straight-A student. Half a year later, she enrolled in the best university in the country and majored in specialized medicine. Determined to become an excellent doctor, she cured her husband's illness completely in merely two years. That handsome and suave Eldest Young Master Huo returned. After Huo Xuan's recovery, he allocated a huge budget and held the biggest wedding of the century for Mo Zhu. During the grand wedding ceremony, Huo Xuan announced during his speech, "In this lifetime, there are two people I'm most grateful for other than my parents. One of them is my mother-in-law. Thank you for despising me after I fell ill and forcing my wife to marry me in her younger sister's stead. If it weren't for you, I wouldn't have met the most important person in my life! The second person must be my wife! She never despised me when I was at my lowest. Instead, she takes good care of me. She's an angel sent by God, and she has saved me with her forgiveness and kindness, granting me a second chance at life."

Seven Star Acupuncture Technique

Editor: Atlas Studios

"We are doing acupuncture treatment today. You will start taking medicine tomorrow." Mo Zhu looked at Huo Xuan.

"Alright, let Mo Wu know if you need anything."

"Let me administer acupuncture for you first. Take off your clothes and lie down."

In the treatment room, there was another person other than Xu Huan and Mo Wu. Xu Huan and Mo Wu were worried, so Mo Zhu suggested Huo Xuan's personal doctor stand at one side.

Upon hearing Mo Zhu's words, Xu Huan and Mo Wu's expressions were rather subtle. The young girl's face was full of seriousness, and there was not a hint of emotion in her eyes.

Master Huo obediently took off his shirt and laid on the treatment bed.

"Take off your pants too," Mo Zhu said again.

There was a hint of stiffness on the man's elegant face, as well as a tinge of redness. However, Huo Xuan quickly laid back down.

He only saw that Mo Zhu quickly lifted the needle and placed it down.

"It hurts a little. Bear with it."

Mo Wu and Xu Huan watched in astonishment as Mo Zhu quickly placed the silver needles on Huo Xuan's body. They had not seen acupuncture treatment for a long time, as they were already used to using all kinds of medical equipment to examine and treat him.

After a few needles were placed on him, the man lying on the bed started to frown and beads of sweat started to appear on his forehead.

When the other person saw Mo Zhu's acupuncture technique, his eyes flashed with excitement. His gaze followed Mo Zhu's every movement.

By the time Mo Zhu retracted her needles, it was already an hour later. Mo Zhu had also inserted a needle into Huo Xuan's sleeping acupuncture point, causing him to fall asleep immediately. The man on the treatment bed still had a frown on his forehead, but he did not make a sound throughout the entire treatment process.

Mo Zhu knew how torturous this process was. Many people weren't able to endure it.

Mo Jiu went forward to check Huo Xuan's body following their instructions.

Mo Jiu's voice trembled with excitement after he finished reading the data. "Master Huo's poison is under control. It won't spread for the time being. Ms. Mo had helped Master Huo's body coexist with the poison. In the next two years, the poison won't harm Master Huo's body." He looked at Mo Zhu with admiration.

After hearing Mo Jiu's words, Mo Wu and Xu Huan finally felt relieved. They looked at Mo Zhu gratefully.

"Thank you Ms. Mo, for saving my Young Master. Mo Jiu will listen to Miss Mo's orders in the future."

Mo Wu was about to kneel down when he was stopped by Mo Zhu.

"I can only control his poison, but I'm sorry, I can't cure it." For the first time, the girl's calm eyes revealed something else.

"Don't say that. We are very grateful that you can control his poison." Xu Huan looked at Mo Zhu seriously.

"Alright, let him have a good sleep and then go buy these herbs." Mo Zhu wrote the herbs on a piece of paper and handed it over.

"Alright, I'll do it right away." Mo Wu took it and left the Huo residence. Xu Huan also went out to make a call.

Mo Zhu and Mo Jiu were the only ones left in the room. Mo Zhu was about to leave.

"Ms. Mo just used the Seven Star Acupuncture Technique."

Mo Jiu stood in front of Mo Zhu excitedly. Although he wasn't a traditional Chinese medicine practitioner, he had read a lot of books. These few years, he had read a lot of Chinese and foreign books for Master Huo's illness.

This was very similar to the Seven Star Acupuncture Technique he had seen in an ancient book. It was written in the book that the Seven Star Needle Technique could revive the dead. However, this kind of acupuncture technique had been lost, so Mo Jiu thought that only the divine doctor might know it.

"Don't worry, Ms. Mo. You are Master Huo's savior and my savior. I won't tell anyone about it."

"Yes." The young girl replied nonchalantly.

"Then are you the divine doctor?" Mo Jiu felt his heart in his throat.

"No," she said and left. She was a little tired and needed a good rest.

Mo Jiu stood where he was. Although he looked calm, only he knew how much courage it took for him to talk to Mo Zhu. His palms were already sweaty, not just because of excitement.

He didn't even dare to look the girl in the eye. This was the first time he had seen someone so intimidating other than Master Huo. And it was a girl. Luckily, they were friends and not enemies.

Mo Jiu loosened his grip on his sweaty hands and shook his head. If Mo San and the rest knew that he was scared out of his wits by Mo Zhu, they would definitely mock him. Although he was only responsible for checking Master Huo's health, he was trained by the Huo family after all.
