Exile with Storage Space: Family Fortunes in the Barren Lands Chapter 48 Choosing a Location to Build a House (2)
The girl glanced at Li Yuzhu and gently patted Lady Liu, "Mom, soone is looking for you."
Lady Liu lay facing inward, ignoring her.
Li Yuzhu nodded to the girl and said, "My family just moved to the village and lives on Niu Tou Mountain. Our surna is Li. My brother and I ca to invite your father to help build our house, but then we learned your mother is ill..."
"I’m not ill!" Lady Liu gritted her teeth and pounded the bed, "I’m not ill, I’m not ill, I’m not ill! Which scoundrel said I’m ill? I miscarried! It was that wicked woman from Liu Da’s family who hit ! Pity my unborn child..."
"What are you yelling about? I’m not dead yet!" From the outer room, Liu Laoda shouted angrily.
He seed to have also slamd the table.
The village chief imdiately tried to calm him down.
Lady Liu buried her head in the quilt and began to cry softly.
"Mom, don’t cry, mom! The doctor said crying like this is bad for your health." Liu Er Niu nudged Lady Liu.
Lady Liu still didn’t respond.
Li Yuzhu walked over, sat on the edge of the bed, and said, "Aunt Liu, your body indeed has a condition. When I saw you just now, I noticed your complexion was extrely unusual."
Diagnosing by complexion was sothing she made up to persuade Lady Liu to allow her to examine her.
Lady Liu stopped crying, lifted the quilt, and sneered, "What would a little girl like you know? Who sent you to deceive ?"
Li Yuzhu shook her head and said in perfect northern dialect, "My family just arrived in the village yesterday. We don’t know anyone here, and no one taught . I have been learning dicine with my master since I was little. My master and I have treated no less than fifty won with ailnts like Aunt Liu’s."
The Zhao Country Capital is in the north. Northern and southern people can communicate but have significant accent differences.
There were no northerners in the countryside, but there were regularly northerners passing through the county town, and so did business there.
Lady Liu had been to the town and seen northerners.
She recognized Li Yuzhu’s northern accent and turned to look at Li Yuzhu.
"You can treat illnesses?"
"Yes." Li Yuzhu nodded, "My family just ca to the village. Why would I bother to deceive you as soon as I arrive, right?"
Migrant families fleeing for survival often ingratiated themselves with locals, fearing that they would not be welcod otherwise, and certainly wouldn’t offend the village people upon arrival.
Lady Liu scrutinized Li Yuzhu, "You’re a little girl and treated no less than fifty patients? How old are you?"
Li Yuzhu said, "If I were here in the village, indeed, I wouldn’t see so many female patients, but I ca from the Capital. My master was a female doctor in the palace, and she knew many people!"
"..."
"If not for a distant relative of my family committing a mistake that got us penalized and had our assets confiscated, my family would still be living in the Capital, and I would still be studying dicine. In a year following my master, seeing fifty patients wouldn’t even be much. Even seeing five hundred wouldn’t be too much." She fabricated her background.
Originally soone from the Capital.
Only then did Lady Liu not outright reject Li Yuzhu, though she still doubted her dical skills.
"Can you really treat illnesses?" She looked at Li Yuzhu doubtfully, thinking this little girl and her family fleeing might just be there to trick money?
"Of course I can." Li Yuzhu nodded seriously.
Just as Lady Liu turned over, Li Yuzhu had already activated the CT machine in her spatial device.
She then clearly saw that there was a fibroid growing in Lady Liu’s uterus.
And the severe endocrine imbalance was what caused the uterine fibroid to grow.
It was the instability of Lady Liu’s nstruation that led her to mistakenly believe she was pregnant.
