Chapter 54: Chapter 54 Unpaid Dedication
Old Lady saw her appear, imdiately bead with a broad smile and called out, “Doctor Su, co quickly, you’re the only one we’ve been waiting for!”
Su Yu quickened her pace, was affectionately pulled by the Old Lady to a seat beside her, and asked with great care, “Did yesterday tire you out?”
Su Yu smiled lightly and responded calmly, “It is only right to give oneself for the patients.”
At that mont, a maid presented a warm bowl of bird’s nest porridge. Old Lady, wearing a kind smile, said, “Drink it while it’s hot. I noticed you were quite restraint during yesterday’s al. You don’t need to be so here; relax a bit.”
Su Yu’s heart swelled with gratitude, and she softly voiced her thanks.
Compared to the formal banquet of the previous day, today’s atmosphere next to the Old Lady, with casual dining and chatting, was relaxing and pleasant, making her feel extrely comfortable.
During the al, Young Master Tutor’s wife personally placed a golden and tender pumpkin cake into Su Yu’s bowl, full of apology and said, “Doctor Su, you hardly ate any dinner last night, you really worked hard. Today, feel free to order anything you like from the kitchen.”
Su Yu quickly waved her hand to decline, she was never picky about food, and would gladly enjoy whatever she liked; for what did not suit her taste, she would not force herself, having no particular preferences or aversions.
After breakfast, Su Yu took up her pen and wrote a very brief letter to Jiang Ziling, just four characters: “All is well, do not worry.”
It wasn’t that she did not want to write more tender words, rather when she held the brush, her mind was blank, unable to find the right words, and could only convey her feelings with these simplest four characters.
Afterwards, she entrusted the loyal Yaoguang with the task of delivering it. Yaoguang, excited by the reward he had received last ti and having another opportunity to serve Lin Mansion, plus the use of Lin Mansion’s carriage, was overjoyed. He could go out legitimately and without needing to labor, his smile almost reaching his ears.
Though the letter was simple, its emotions were deep.
Once done, Su Yu turned her attention to the health of Young Master Tutor’s wife: “Madam, how do you feel today? Any improvent?”
Young Master Tutor’s wife could hardly hide her joy on her face and replied, “Much better. This morning I woke up feeling warm all over, full of energy and no longer easily fatigued like before. Doctor Su, you truly are a Divine Doctor with the skill of revitalizing health!”
Su Yu nodded lightly, her tone carrying a hint of affirmation, “It seems our treatnt plan indeed is the correct path. I will observe for a few more days, and once the condition stabilizes, I can then prescribe a regin for your nourishnt. By then, I can also return ho with a peaceful mind.”
As her words ended, Young Master Tutor’s wife showed a hint of worry and murmured, “In the future…”.
Her words were full of reluctance to see Su Yu leave and uncertainty about the future.
Su Yu’s gaze was gentle and firm, like a warm ray of sunlight piercing through the clouds, gently brushing across the Young Master Tutor’s wife’s troubled heart. Her words flowed like a soothing spring, “Please rest assured, I promise you that I will co to inspect you ticulously every month and will carefully adjust the prescription according to changes in your body. All you need to do is to take the dicine regularly and leave the rest to .”
Upon hearing this, the worry in Young Master Tutor’s wife’s brows instantly scattered like willow fluff in the spring breeze.
She agreed repeatedly, her eyes shimring with gratitude and trust, her unease finally comforted by Su Yu’s promise.
Then, Su Yu turned her gentle gaze towards the Old Lady beside her, her voice carrying delicate care like a breeze, “Old Lady, how have you been feeling these days? Do you feel that your body is more comfortable than before?”
Upon hearing this, the Old Lady’s smile rippled like waves, her crow’s feet seemingly smoothed by this joy, her eyes almost squinting, her tone filled with happiness and gratitude, “Oh, much better, thanks to you, I feel as robust as I used to, even thinking I could stop taking my dicine.”
After listening, Su Yu’s lips curved into a helpless yet tender smile, and she imdiately shook her head gently in an unquestionable yet affectionate tone, “That really won’t do. While I’m still in the mansion, you should make more use of acupuncture to stabilize the effects of the treatnt. The dication shouldn’t be stopped arbitrarily either. Only by doing this can your body fully recover and reach the optimal condition.”
The Old Lady was deeply moved by Su Yu’s sincere and professional persuasion, repeatedly nodding and her smile full of compliance, “Alright, alright, I’ll listen to you, whatever you say.”
Ti flies, and three days passed in the blink of an eye.
During this period, Su Yu had not a mont of respite; her busy figure moved throughout the mansion.
Since Doctor Zhu had to go ho to take care of his wife, who had just given birth to a baby, he had earnestly entrusted Su Yu before leaving, hoping that in his absence, if there were any minor ailnts like headaches or fevers in the mansion, Su Yu would lend a hand to avoid frequent travels, which would add to the inconvenience.
Based on their past camaraderie and understanding of Doctor Zhu’s situation, Su Yu willingly took on this responsibility.
This news spread quickly throughout Lin Mansion, swiftly circulating tales of this young Divine Doctor.
It was said that she not only miraculously revived the critically ill Old Lady but also generously assud the temporary duties of a doctor.
Thus, whether they were servants or relatives, anyone with minor headaches or ailnts inevitably turned to Su Yu.
In these busy three days, Su Yu not only took ticulous care of the two ladies but also tirelessly looked after the physical and ntal health of nearly a hundred people in the mansion, with every mont fully scheduled. Her presence beca the busiest and most appreciated in Lin Mansion.
It’s worth ntioning that she did all this without asking for any compensation.
The inner turmoil and helplessness, like an undercurrent, were all due to Li Huaixin—an individual who had demonstrated his extraordinary skills since the incident that day, and now, unintentionally, he had also plunged Su Yu into this invisible “debt.”
However, on the eve of her departure, the Old Lady unexpectedly awarded Su Yu a substantial sum as consultation fee, which sowhat consoled the dissatisfaction and grievances deep in her heart.
She declined the Old Lady’s kind offer to send her off with a Lin Mansion carriage, deciding to personally buy essentials for her ho.
After all, having money in hand, it was urgent to replenish the household’s necessities, and personally picking them ensured the quality and usefulness.
Counting the silver taels in her hand, along with the previously accumulated consultation fees, the total astonishingly reached fifty taels. Although it wasn’t as profitable as the Lingzhi trade, it was undoubtedly a substantial fortune.
Thinking of a simple bowl of clear soup noodles worth only five or six wen money, the silver in her hands felt particularly heavy.
With this money, Su Yu first bought a toothbrush made of pig bristles and precious bamboo salt tooth powder, despite these luxury items being quite expensive.
