Chapter 142: Chapter 142 Uneasy Heart_1 Chapter 142: Chapter 142 Uneasy Heart_1 Since Divine Doctor Jiang had to co every day to perform acupuncture on Zhao Erhu, Lin Yue also had to prepare lunch. During this ti, Lin Yue decided not to sell food at the market, but she still had to go to the city to buy vegetables every other day. She spent the rest of her ti doing embroidery at ho. Considering that the Divine Doctor was eating lunch at her house every day, the expenses were definitely higher than on ordinary days. Fortunately, aside from the one hundred taels of silver for the consultation fee, she had also saved a few dozen taels of silver, so she didn’t have to worry about household finances for the ti being.
The title “Divine Doctor” was not unwarranted for Jiang Ziqi. Indeed, after his acupuncture treatnt and the support of his herbal dicine, on the third day, Zhao Erhu showed so slight reactions. Although he still had not woken up, Lin Yue clearly saw that after Doctor Jiang perford the acupuncture, Zhao Erhu’s fingers moved a few tis. This improvent was truly surprising, and the children were overjoyed. Throughout those days, they refused to leave the house and stayed by Zhao Erhu’s side, just waiting for their father to wake up.
“Doctor Jiang, my husband’s fingers moved. Does that an he will wake up soon?” Lin Yue, though strong, was after all just an ordinary woman, maintaining her composure to this day with sheer determination. Now seeing hope, she looked at Jiang Ziqi excitedly and asked aloud, her eyes slightly red.
Jiang Ziqi frowned slightly at Lin Yue’s appearance. “Not so soon. It will take at least ten days. For now, he has just regained so consciousness, not as devoid of perception as before. It’s only a matter of ti. After all, you have waited for more than two months, so what’s the harm in waiting a few more days?”
“Yes, yes, as long as my husband can wake up, I don’t mind waiting a few more days, even longer. I just didn’t expect that he would recover so quickly. I got too excited and lost my composure. Doctor Jiang, you truly are a Divine Doctor; your dical skills are incredibly impressive.” Lin Yue said with a chuckle, her voice slightly choked up. She had learned from being around Doctor Jiang for so ti that despite his reclusive and straightforward nature, he was not one to hold grudges, which made her interactions with him much more relaxed.
“Hmph, you’re only realizing this now. I told you when I examined your husband the other day that you’d see the effects within two or three days. You probably didn’t believe it yourself. I, Jiang Ziqi, have been practicing dicine for over a decade. When have I ever spoken falsely? Won really are troubleso. I can’t be bothered to argue with you.” Jiang Ziqi said this with a hint of a smile at the corner of his mouth. Clearly, he appreciated Lin Yue’s flattering words. Previously, even if he was praised by the Emperor or his elders, he had never felt this pleased. Saving lives and practicing dicine was his wish and duty. To think that he now felt joy and satisfaction from a young woman’s few words of praise made Jiang Ziqi feel as if he had fallen from his lofty standards.
Upon hearing Doctor Jiang’s words, Lin Yue knew he was being proudly coy. She imdiately played along, bowing respectfully with a serious and sincere face, “Doctor Jiang’s dical skills are profound, his heart is kind and virtuous, and his mind is broad. Naturally, he will not stoop to bicker with a young woman like . I am thoroughly convinced.”
Jiang Ziqi felt a bit embarrassed by Lin Yue’s words, and so he waved his hand dismissively, “Stop with the flattery. I don’t fall for that. Go and cook. You know what I like to eat.”
As Zhao Erhu’s condition improved day by day and joy was found in good fortune, Lin Yue’s face was constantly smiling. That afternoon, just like any other day, Lin Yue went to the market to buy vegetables. However, she hadn’t been there long before she felt sothing was off—as if soone was following her. But when she turned around to look, she couldn’t find anything out of place. Was she just overthinking it? Lin Yue shook her head, though inside, she still felt sowhat uneasy, with a troubling twitch in her eyelid.
