The rural doctor is busy with farming, and her abstinent husband can't bear it
Chapter 53: Don’t force others to do things
She knew that every time she extended a hand, it was a gentle support for life.
However, Madam Young Master's condition is not as simple as it seems. Although she looks calm on the surface, she is actually in turmoil inside. Her internal organs are seriously deficient. She is like a dangerous building that may collapse at the slightest mistake.
Su Yu estimated that he would have to stay here for several days until Madam Young Master's condition stabilized before he could leave with peace of mind.
Thinking of this, a barely perceptible sadness crept into his heart. The day of returning home would be postponed again. Su Yu couldn't help feeling a little lost and helpless.
"Alas, it will be another few days and nights of waiting."
Su Yu sighed in his heart, and then changed his mind, "Saving a life is better than building a seven-story pagoda, let alone a noble lady like Madam Shaofu. Later, I will ask the servant of Lin Mansion to go to Liushu Village and take a message home to inform them of the recent situation. It can be regarded as a consolation."
Compared with the slight melancholy in Su Yu's heart, the old lady and Madam Young Master's face were filled with joy, and their hearts were as warm as spring flowers.
They knew very well that since Su Yu had agreed to the treatment, the matter was already halfway successful.
Her medical skills are well-known in this area. She is like a miracle doctor reborn. Everyone knows her ability to bring people back to life.
At the command of Madam Young Master, the two maids Yun Xin and Qiu Yu quickly and respectfully assisted the old lady to change her clothes. At the same time, Madam Young Master also did not forget to take care of Su Yu, and specially assigned her personal maid to prepare washing for Su Yu to relieve her from her hard work all night.
Su Yu had endured a sleepless night. Her face looked a little tired and her skin was covered with a thin layer of sweat. The sticky feeling made her feel uncomfortable.
Although the arrival of the maid solved her urgent problem, she was used to being independent and felt a little uncomfortable with this sudden service, as if every cell in her body was resisting this overly meticulous care.
However, when the carefully crafted boar-bristle toothbrush touched her teeth, Su Yu couldn't help but admire it inwardly. The bristles with moderate softness and hardness seemed to be specially tailor-made for her. Coupled with the unique bamboo salt tooth-cleaning powder, although dark in color, it exudes a natural and fresh scent. Compared with the simple tree branch toothbrushes and soapberry paste commonly used in the countryside, it is really a world of difference.
At this moment, she deeply realized that the life of the ancients was not entirely simple, but there was a huge difference between wealth and poverty.
Money, no matter when and where, always seems to determine a person's quality of life. Su Yu feels this particularly deeply at this moment.
The maid was very clever. She not only helped Su Yu to tidy up her appearance, but also skillfully tied her hair into an exquisite bun. This made Su Yu admit that she was indeed a layman when it came to dressing herself up.
In the countryside, she always casually used a wooden hairpin to fix her messy hair, or simply braided it. Fortunately, the villagers were already accustomed to this and did not think there was anything wrong with it.
Now, she looked at herself in the mirror, looking particularly fresh and refined because of this bun, which surprised her a little.
Facing the praise from Madam Shaofu, Su Yu just smiled calmly and said bluntly: "For people in the countryside, who work daily, fancy clothes are not practical."
There is a sincerity and simplicity in her words, which makes people feel good about her.
Upon hearing this, Madam Shao Fu became even more determined to win over Su Yu. She quickly responded and promised him a generous reward, her words full of sincerity and expectation.
When Su Yu heard this, a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes. He didn't expect that the other party would extend an olive branch so quickly.
But she knew that accepting favors without expecting anything in return was not her style, so she politely declined, revealing her attachment to rural life: "The tranquility and freedom of the mountains and fields are the Peach Blossom Spring in my heart. I don't yearn for prosperity."
Although Madam Shao Fu was unwilling, she understood and respected Su Yu's choice. After all, a forced melon is not sweet, so she would not force him to do anything.
As mealtime approached, the servants came to invite them and led them to the front hall for breakfast.
After a night of hunger, Su Yu felt that he was full enough to swallow a whole cow.
However, facing the table full of delicacies, her first thought was to share this rare delicacy with Jiang Ziling and Xier. This sudden yearning made her smile bitterly. When did she become so sentimental?
Shaking his head, Su Yu decided to put aside all distracting thoughts for the time being and focus on the feast in front of him.
However, even though every dish was delicious and exquisite like a work of art, it still failed to touch her heart. The familiar and simple hometown meals became more and more tempting in her memory.
The atmosphere at the dinner table was very different from that in the countryside. Everyone was elegant and taciturn. The atmosphere lacked liveliness and ease, making Su Yu miss the warm times at home even more.
Finally, the long banquet ended. Without a moment's rest, Su Yu devoted herself to the treatment of Madam Shao Fu again. Her figure shone with the brilliance of a doctor in the busyness, and she unwaveringly guarded everyone who needed her.
Although he was reluctant in his heart and wanted to take a short rest during this busy period before continuing to practice his medical skills, as soon as his eyes met the anxious and urgent expectation in Madam Young Master's eyes, the rejection in his heart melted away like ice and snow meeting the warm sun, turning into wisps of tenderness and responsibility.
After the full meal, she felt sleepy like a shadow. In addition, she had almost stayed up all night preparing the prescription. The sleepiness came like the rising tide, and no matter how she struggled, she could not resist its power to overwhelm everything.
Although I didn't complain a word, deep down in my heart, a subtle but firm voice kept whispering: every penny of income is hard-earned, and is wrapped in sweat and fatigue.
As Madam Young Master walked slowly through the exquisitely carved corridor and arrived at her quiet courtyard, she felt the curling smoke from the moxibustion, the meticulous acupuncture, and the refreshing aroma of the herbs in the medicinal bath. After a whole course of treatment, time had quietly slipped towards dusk.
Su Yu's legs seemed to be filled with lead, so heavy that she could hardly support her body. She hoarsely ordered the maid beside her not to disturb her, and she arbitrarily selected a guest room that seemed the quietest, fell on the bed, and fell into a deep sleep.
When the first ray of sunlight came through the window and caressed her cheek, Su Yucai suddenly woke up and found that the sun was already high in the sky. Her heart tightened and she suddenly remembered that she had not yet sent anyone to Liushu Village to tell Jiang Ziling that she was safe.
She got up hurriedly and opened the door, only to see her personal maid waiting outside. When she saw her wake up, she immediately came forward and helped her wash with gentle hands. Her series of actions revealed her delicacy and care.
After finishing the tidying up, just as he was about to take a break, unexpectedly another servant came to invite him from the old lady's place.
When she arrived, she realized that the young master's wife was also there. The two ladies seemed to be waiting for her arrival and enjoying breakfast together.
