The doctor came to Wei Manor in the middle of the day as promised.
The doctor, whose surname is Ji, is a native of Leling County and ran to Yuyang a few years ago to avoid the scourge of war. He has excellent medical skills and a kind heart. A few days ago, he was invited to Wei Manor to treat Mrs. Xus illness.
Mrs. Xu was initially in good health. Because of her old age, when she encountered sadness and anger, the evil fire attacked her heart, and she collapsed. Fortunately, after several days of treatment, her condition slowly improved.The source of this content nov(el)bi((n))
At this moment, the doctor from Le Ling examined her. After some examination, he made additions to the old prescription. He advised her to consume the medicine as prescribed and then left. Xiao Qiao personally sent him out. The doctor said she didnt have to, so she stopped.
Xiao Qiao took a few more steps and saw no servants or maids nearby.
She asked him in a low voice about Mrs. Xus condition: Are you sure there is nothing serious?
The doctor replied: The old madams depression and fire stagnated the heart. She fell ill because her blood vessels were not regulating. Although she fell ill this time, according to my prescription, she should be able to recover in ten days or half a month. Please rest assured.
Dr. Lelings tone was firm, and his attitude was sincere. A servant entered the house, saying Mrs. Su, the wife of the Duke of Zuo Feng Yi, had come to pay a visit to the old madam.
Mrs. Xu was lying on her pillow. Xiao Qiao saw her eyes closed for a moment and slowly said, Tell her I am asleep and it is not convenient for me to see guests. Please ask her to go back.
The servant was about to leave, but Mrs. Xu suddenly opened her eyes again and said, Tell her to come in!
After the servant left, Mrs. Xu asked Xiao Qiao to help her sit up. Xiao Qiao helped her and put a lumbar pad behind her. Xiao Qiao was about to retreat when Mrs. Xu put her hand on one of Xiao Qiaos hands and ordered her to sit by the bed, saying, Stay with me.
Xiao Qiao sat on the side of the bed as instructed. Xiao Qiao ordered the servant to summon her. Xiao Qiao raised her eyes and saw the Su girl entering the room.
I am fine here, and there is no shortage of people to serve. I appreciate your filial heart. There is nothing worth lingering over in Yuyang. The season is getting harsh in winter, and the snowfall blocks the roads. I remember your mother came to see me when I went to Zhongshan previously. I saw she was also weak. Youd better return to your home in Zhongshan as soon as possible. If you stay here, your family will be worried.
Mrs. Xu said slowly.
Her voice was gentle but with a force of compulsion.
Su E Huang lowered her eyes: Thank you for Grand Aunts advice. Ill take note of it.
Mrs. Xu nodded her head.
Xiao Qiao saw her as if she was about to lie down, so she leaned over to hold her shoulders and arms and helped her lie down slowly.
Mrs. Xu lay down and closed her eyes.
Su E Huang said, I dare not disturb my Grand Aunts rest and recuperation, so Ill excuse myself first. She bowed as she had done when she arrived.
Mrs. Xu closed her eyes and said, Old Zhong, send her off.
Su E Huang got up. Her eyes glanced at Mrs. Xu and Xiao Qiao for the last time, smiled, and turned around and sent out by Old Zhong. A few moments later, Old Zhong returned, and Mrs. Xu opened her eyes and asked, Has she gone?
She said she would go to pay her respects to madam.
Mrs. Xu said, Her manners are always sufficient. The tone was light. Then she asked, What happened at the East House in the past two days?
