Reborn as a tree, the peerless god is obsessed

Xueyao's reputation in the capital grew, and her good deeds and medical skills spread throughout the capital. However, she did not become complacent, but became more humble and low-key. In her opinion, medical skills are used to save people, not to show off.

But she was still a little surprised to see so many dignitaries coming.

After seeing off one group, she walked towards the room that Commander Li pointed to.

There were more than a dozen men in gorgeous clothes, some were old men with beards and some were young men.

As Xueyao entered the room, she was enveloped by the luxurious atmosphere. However, her gaze was not drawn to these things, but instead fell directly on the faces of those people. She noticed that they all had expressions of anticipation and anxiety, as if they had something important to discuss with her.

"Miss Xueyao, please take a seat." An elderly man stood up and gestured for Xueyao to sit down. His voice was steady and powerful, revealing an unquestionable majesty.

He then introduced himself: "I am Lu Wuhao, the head of the Lu family, and I have come to visit Miss Xueyao."

The Lu family was once the head of the four great families of the capital: Lu, Yu, Hong, and Ji. Decades ago, they were renowned throughout the capital. However, for unknown reasons, their influence has steadily declined in recent decades.

As he started speaking, the others also bowed in greeting.

"I am Yu Changmao, the president of the city's Chamber of Commerce. I've come to visit Miss Xueyao."

"I am Zhong Weixiang, the shopkeeper of Fanlou, and I have come to visit Miss Xueyao."

"I am Wu Changsheng, the owner of the silk shop, and I have come to visit Miss Xueyao."

"I am..."

Xue Yao was slightly startled. This was yet another powerful faction. It seemed her reputation had spread not only to the officialdom but also to the merchant families.

Xueyao nodded slightly and sat in the chair prepared for her. She knew that while these people weren't high-ranking officials, they were still distinguished individuals, their identities and status were extraordinary. She didn't know exactly why they came to her, but she knew it was all about medicine, and she had to remain calm and humble.

"Miss Xueyao, I came here today to ask for a favor." The older man who spoke first, Lu Yuanhao, the head of the Lu family, said with a hint of pleading in his tone.

Xueyao knew that what these people were asking for was no small matter. But she calmly responded, "Sir, please tell me. As long as Xueyao can do it, I will do my best."

"It's like this. There are some young children in our family. For various reasons, they are weak and have difficulty in becoming successful. We have heard that Miss Xueyao is an excellent doctor and has a kind heart, so we have come to ask if there is any way to improve their physical condition so that they can grow up healthily." Lu Yuanhao said with a heavy tone.

Xueyao was moved after hearing this. She understood that the children of these families were the hope of their families' future. Their frail health would not only affect their growth, but also the fate of the entire family.

She pondered for a moment, then slowly spoke, "Head of the Lu family, improving one's physical condition is not a one-day job. It requires long-term recuperation and training. Of course, we have to look at the specific situation before we can make a final conclusion."

Someone brought tea and she took a sip. "I can also develop a detailed recuperation plan for you, covering diet, daily living, exercise, and other aspects. As long as they follow the plan, I believe their physical condition will definitely improve."

Upon hearing this, the elders nodded in praise. Xueyao's medical skills and kindhearted nature had already earned their approval. They believed that as long as they followed Xueyao's plan, the Lu family's children would surely grow up healthily.

Xueyao also felt somewhat relieved. What she was doing was not just for the children of these families, but also for the future of the entire capital. She believed that as long as everyone could pay attention to the healthy growth of young people, the future of the capital would be even better.

Seeing that Lu Yuanhao's matter had been resolved, Chamber of Commerce President Yu Changmao smiled and bowed.

Xue Yao was slightly stunned and quickly returned the gift.

The president of the Chamber of Commerce? He was a prominent figure in the city. The Yu family was still a prominent clan in the capital. She had no connection with him, so why would he come to visit her in person? Although she was puzzled, Xue Yao politely replied, "I wonder what brings President Yu here?"

Yu Changmao didn't hesitate and said bluntly, "I heard that Miss Xueyao has superb medical skills and can solve difficult and complicated diseases. I have come here to ask her to treat an elder in my family."

Xue Yao had no doubt that the Chamber of Commerce president had come personally because he was impressed by her medical skills. She pondered for a moment and said, "President Yu, you're being too kind. Xue Yao only has a basic understanding of medicine. However, since President Yu has a request, Xue Yao will do her best."

Yu Changmao was overjoyed upon hearing this and quickly said, "Thank you very much, young lady! If you can cure my elder, the entire Chamber of Commerce will be grateful."

The Chamber of Commerce will surely be grateful. Isn't it your family or your clan that should be grateful for what happened to your family?

Xue Yao felt a little confused when she heard Yu Changmao's words, but she didn't show it on her face. She knew that in the capital, social relationships were often more complicated than medical skills. She said softly, "President Yu, you're too polite. Treating illnesses and saving lives is a doctor's duty. Xue Yao will do her best."

Yu Changmao was even happier when he saw Xueyao agreed so readily.

Xue Yao smiled again and said, "I wonder how your condition is? When is it convenient for you to see him?"

The Chamber of Commerce President said, "The elder's condition is somewhat complicated, so I need you to go to the mansion in person. I have prepared a carriage, and you can go at any time."

Xueyao nodded and said, "In that case, I'll go with President Yu tomorrow."

"Thank you, Miss Xueyao!" Yu Changmao felt as if a stone had fallen from his heart.

Others also expressed that they had important matters to ask for.

Xueyao wasn't surprised that someone had arrived and was asking for something important. She remained calm and humble, listening to their requests one by one.

The young silk shop owner, Wu Changsheng, stood up and said shyly, "Miss Xueyao, I... I have a little sister who has suffered from a strange disease since she was young. Every winter, she suffers from unbearable pain all over her body. Countless famous doctors have been unable to cure her. I've heard that you are a skilled doctor, so I've come to ask if you could treat my little sister?"

Xueyao couldn't help but feel a surge of sympathy after hearing this. She knew full well what a heavy burden the torment of illness placed on patients and their families. She nodded slightly and said, "Master Wu, please rest assured. As long as Xueyao can do it, she will do her best."

Then, Zhong Weixiang, the shopkeeper of Fanlou, stood up and said, "Miss Xueyao, my father's memory has been declining in recent years and he often forgets things. I'm worried that he has some illness. Miss, you are a skilled doctor. Could you spare some time to see my father?"

Xueyao nodded in agreement. She knew that these people's requests were related to the health and happiness of their families. As a doctor, it was her duty to save the dying and heal the wounded.

Seeing Xueyao agree to all the requests, everyone was filled with gratitude. They knew that Xueyao was not only a skilled doctor, but also a kind-hearted person who would do her best for every patient.

At this moment, a young man suddenly stood up, his face showing a trace of determination and resoluteness. He said, "Miss Xueyao, I am not here for myself. I have a good friend who lives far away. He was seriously injured in an accident and has been in a coma ever since. We have sought out famous doctors, but none have been able to wake him. I heard that you have extraordinary medical skills, so I have come to ask for your help."

Xueyao couldn't help but feel moved after hearing this. When this young man introduced himself earlier, Xueyao noticed that his name was Yin Hongju, and he wasn't from the capital. He said he had come all the way to the capital to find her, a doctor, for a good friend, and she wanted to give him a chance.

She took a deep breath and said, "Don't worry, sir. Xueyao will do her best. Leave me your address and I will go there in a few days."
