The rural doctor is busy with farming, and her abstinent husband can't bear it
Chapter 40 Show off your power
Although the environment here is not as quiet and elegant as the Tianzihao, it is clean and tidy, and is an excellent choice for her who just wants to take a temporary rest.
She silently praised it in her heart, saying that such a high cost-effectiveness was indeed worth the money. The only drawback was that the sound insulation effect was slightly inferior, and the conversation next door could be heard clearly.
"Hey, have you heard? Master Lin's family has posted a reward notice again, saying that they are looking for a famous doctor to treat their mother's illness for a large sum of money."
A slightly hoarse voice sounded from next door, the words were full of curiosity and enthusiasm for talking.
Another voice continued, "Everyone knows this. The old lady's illness has dragged on for so many years, and it's time for her to end. If she dies of old age, it's fine. Why bother with so much trouble?"
There was irony and helplessness in his words.
"Shh, keep your voice down. It won't sound good if this gets out."
The hoarse voice quickly stopped him, revealing a hint of caution.
Then, the voice whispered again: "That being said, the lives of rich people are always more valuable. After being sick for most of their lives, they can still spend money to prolong their lives. I think this is more like suffering than enjoyment. Being freed early may be the true mercy."
"Well, after all, the old lady's illness was something that many famous doctors were helpless to treat. She was relying on drugs to keep her alive. I'm afraid this time her condition is more serious than expected!"
He sighed hoarsely, and added: "But the bounty list says that if you can cure it, the reward will be generous, probably no less than a hundred taels of silver. I just don't know if there is anyone willing to take on this difficult task."
……
Su Yu was lying on the bed, his originally calm heart stirred up by ripples from the conversation next door.
One hundred taels of silver!
This number was like a heavy hammer hitting her heart.
She felt that she should go and see Master Lin’s mother’s illness. After all, saving a life is better than building a seven-story pagoda. It is not only a good deed, but also a respect and redemption of life.
Thinking of this, Su Yu turned over and stood up with quick and decisive movements.
She arrived in front of the young master's mansion and slammed the heavy copper ring.
The wait seemed extremely long until the door slowly opened.
A servant in coarse clothes hurriedly poked his head out and asked in surprise, "Who are you?"
Look at his appearance and dress, he was wearing a simple blue cloth shirt with a white towel draped over his shoulders.
Beads of sweat can be faintly seen on his forehead after hard work. He must be a diligent and loyal servant in the Lin Mansion.
Su Yu behaved dignifiedly and politely replied, "Oh, my last name is Su, and I am a doctor who came here specially to diagnose the illness of the honorable mother of the young master's mansion."
The servant looked Su Yu up and down curiously, with a hint of barely perceptible surprise on his handsome face.
These days, all the visitors are strong men. It is the first time they see such a gentle and confident woman stepping into the threshold of medicine.
His eyes couldn't help but reveal a hint of admiration, and he stared in a trance.
Su Yu noticed his loss of composure and chuckled softly, his voice like a spring breeze: "Please lead the way, little brother. Time is tight and we should not delay any longer."
Upon hearing this, the servant withdrew his wandering gaze and was secretly amazed.
He found that Su Yu was not only beautiful, but also kind and friendly, without any of the arrogance and contempt that was common in wealthy families when treating their servants.
He looked around to make sure no one was paying attention, then he approached Su Yu and lowered his voice, his eyes full of sincere concern: "Miss, I still advise you to go back. The old lady at home is sick, and I don't know how many doctors with excellent medical skills have been invited, but they are all helpless. Now everyone in the mansion has begun to quietly prepare for the funeral. If you get involved, I'm afraid it will be of no benefit, but will only cause unnecessary trouble."
After hearing this, Su Yu did not get angry but smiled instead, raised his eyebrows slightly, and a determined light flashed in his eyes.
Although this young boy is very young, he has a kind-hearted character, which is really commendable.
In this deep mansion, if the noble man's illness cannot be cured, the consequences are self-evident. His worries are not unreasonable.
However, faced with the grim situation, Su Yu felt that the responsibility was heavy and could not afford to delay for a moment.
"Thank you for your kind reminder, but now that I'm here, I don't want to give up any possibility easily. I hope you can help me and take me inside to try. Maybe I can really help the old lady out of this crisis. Wouldn't that be the best of both worlds?"
Su Yu spoke earnestly, his eyes sparkling with the persistence and faith of a doctor.
Seeing Su Yu's firm attitude, the servant was helpless but also full of admiration: "Hey, you are so stubborn. I am trying to dissuade you for your own good!"
"I understand your good intentions, but I have made up my mind. Please do me this favor."
In the end, under Su Yu's insistence, the servant could only shake his head and sigh, and led her to report.
The moment he stepped into the Lin Mansion, Su Yu immediately felt the dullness and depression that permeated the mansion.
The servants walked hurriedly with nervous looks, as if they were making final preparations for the impending misfortune.
The servant led Su Yu through a long and winding corridor and came to a quiet courtyard in the backyard. Su Yu stood quietly outside the door, waiting for the servant to come and report.
After a moment, the servant walked out quickly and gestured to Su Yu to come in.
The moment you step over the threshold, a strong and oppressive atmosphere rushes towards you, making you frown.
Looking around the hall, I saw many gorgeously dressed women sitting on both sides.
Except for the man in the main seat with a gloomy face, the rest are all dressed up beautifully. They must be concubines in the mansion.
Su Yu walked forward slowly and performed formal etiquette to the man with a sad face and looked exhausted: "Greetings, Lord Han. I am Su Yu, a junior. I have come here specially to treat the distinguished old lady's illness. I hope to do my best to help."
Lord Han said nothing, but just waved his hand gently, his eyes full of disappointment and helplessness. It was obvious that he no longer had much hope for all his efforts.
Just as Su Yu was about to take a step forward, a sharp and piercing female voice suddenly sounded, breaking the silence in the room: "Yaoguang, I think you are becoming more and more lawless. You dare to introduce all kinds of cats and dogs to the adults!"
Su Yu paused slightly, his eyes fixed coldly on the source of the sound.
She was a woman with a beautiful face, but her words were like sharp blades that pierced people's hearts when she opened her mouth.
Yaoguang was immediately panicked by this shouting, and fell to his knees with a thud, and hurriedly explained: "Please forgive me, Miss Song, I was really worried about the old lady's condition, and I lost my mind in a hurry..."
Su Yu sneered inwardly. This so-called "young lady" was just a concubine in the mansion. What qualifications did she have to show off her power and status here?
Before Su Yu could speak, the young master's wife, who was sitting in the upper seat,
A woman with a graceful temperament and wise eyes finally spoke up to mediate the storm: "Okay, sister, stop talking. Mother is seriously ill, and we should try any glimmer of hope."
