After a bumpy ride, Wang Xinyao and Xie Xiaogang arrived at Qingnianlou, which was still bustling with activity. However, when they entered, they didn't see the familiar figures of Chen the Shopkeeper and Chen Liangxian.

After asking the waiter, she learned that they had gone to the county town, probably to open other restaurant business. Wang Xinyao thought that once her straw shed was built, it would be time to start artificially growing mushrooms.

After leaving Qingnian Building, Wang Xinyao and Xie Xiaogang arrived at Sheng'an Hall. Upon seeing Wang Xinyao, the owner, Wu, beamed with joy. He stepped forward and said, "Miss Wang, you're finally here! You saved Zhang Shuisheng's mother, and now he comes to the pharmacy every day whenever he's free, saying he wants to repay you for saving his life!"

Wang Xinyao smiled slightly, it was just a gesture, but a warm feeling still welled up in her heart.

Shopkeeper Wu's eyes fell on the herbs Wang Xinyao brought, and a look of surprise appeared in his eyes. These herbs were not only numerous, but also of top grade and excellent quality.

He exclaimed, "Miss Wang, your herbs are truly rare!"

"Shopkeeper Wu, I took the risk to pick these from the back mountain of our Xiejia Village." Wang Xinyao said with a smile.

Shopkeeper Wu nodded repeatedly, and after some discussion, they finally reached a deal at a price of three hundred taels.

Wang Xinyao and Xie Xiaogang walked out of the pharmacy happily. However, at this moment, the sound of hurried horse hooves broke the tranquility.

I saw a group of men in black riding horses galloping through the street at an extremely fast speed, like a gust of wind.

A young woman in a carriage happened to be passing by and was startled by the galloping horses. The carriage shook violently and the young woman lost her balance and fell off.

The young woman fell heavily to the ground, groaning in pain. She was over seven months pregnant, and this fall was a serious blow. The servants were terrified and at a loss for what to do.

"Miss…"

"lady…"

They shouted and rushed forward, trying to help the little woman up, but they did not dare to act rashly for fear of aggravating her injuries.

Wang Xinyao and Xie Xiaogang heard the noise and rushed over immediately.

Wang Xinyao's heart tightened at the sight of this scene. She knew the young woman's condition was critical and that immediate action was necessary. Every minute of delay would increase the danger!

She dismissed the bewildered servants and decisively said to Xie Xiaogang, "Hurry up and arrange for someone to carry this woman to the pharmacy."

St. Ann's Church was very close to here, so Xie Xiaogang took action immediately. He arranged for the five or six maids and old women who were crying to carefully lift the woman up and walk quickly and steadily towards the pharmacy.

The pharmacy's owner, Wu, was also startled when he saw them rushing in carrying the woman, but he quickly calmed down and quickly prepared a separate room for them to put the woman in.

Wang Xinyao told everyone to leave as she wanted to treat the woman alone.

Only one little maidservant insisted on following him into the room. Although the other servants were worried, they didn't say anything at this time. If they saved the lady, the punishment they would receive would be lighter. If something happened, they could at least shift the blame. They were all happy that someone was willing to take the initiative to wade through the flood!

"If you want your lady to be alive, don't block the way here!" Wang Xinyao said coldly. Saving a life is like putting out a fire. She doesn't have that much time and patience to comfort a little girl!

Perhaps stunned by Wang Xinyao's words, the little maid immediately moved aside, then looked at Wang Xinyao with watery eyes and said, "Please, save our young lady!"

Wang Xinyao closed the door and began to check on the pregnant woman. She was already unconscious and the pregnancy was premature, so there was no way she could give birth naturally. So she took out the operating table from her space. This operating table was her secret weapon.

She quickly administered anesthesia to the unconscious woman and began the caesarean section. During the operation, Wang Xinyao was completely focused, with beads of sweat covering her forehead. She didn't dare to be distracted at all.

Time passed by minute by minute, and Xie Xiaogang and the servants outside the door waited anxiously. They didn't know what was happening inside, and could only pray silently that the woman would be safe.

At this time, a young man hurriedly came to the door of the pharmacy. His name was Fang Zhiyuan, and many people knew him. Not only did he have a wealthy family and outstanding looks, he was even the only Juren in Ping'an Town!

He looked anxious and kept shouting, "Madam, where is my wife?"

Everyone made way, and Fang Zhiyuan walked quickly into the pharmacy while shouting. His eyes searched everywhere, anxiously looking for his wife.

The crowd of onlookers were also infected by the tense atmosphere, and they began to whisper to each other, wondering if the person who just fell off the carriage was Mr. Fang's wife?

As Fang Zhiyuan walked into the inner hall, the little maid came forward and said with red eyes: "Son-in-law, you are finally here, the young lady, the young lady..."

Seeing the little maid crying, Fang Zhiyuan's heart tightened and he wanted to rush into the room immediately, but fortunately he was stopped by Manager Wu.

"Mr. Fang, wait a minute, your lady is being treated and must not be disturbed, otherwise all our efforts may be wasted!" Shopkeeper Wu said immediately!

Fang Zhiyuan stopped pushing the door and had to wait anxiously at the door!

I don't know how much time passed, the long wait seemed to freeze time. At this moment, a clear but slightly faint baby cry broke the silence, and everyone's heartstrings were tightly tugged by this sound.

Finally, the tightly closed door slowly opened, and Wang Xinyao walked out with a tired face. Although she looked exhausted, there was an indescribable light in her eyes.

A relieved smile appeared on Wang Xinyao's pale face, and she said softly, "Mother and child are safe."

These four simple words, like the sound of nature, reach everyone's ears.

After hearing the news, everyone's tense nerves instantly relaxed, and the heavy stone in their hearts finally fell to the ground, replaced by endless joy and relief.

Wang Xinyao glanced at everyone and said seriously, "Although the child was born safely, it is premature after all. You must take good care of it. The lady is still very weak and needs to be nursed back to health. I will prescribe some medicine for her later. You must prepare the herbs and food according to my instructions. Also, the mother needs a quiet environment to recuperate. Everyone in the mansion must do their best to take care of her."

At this time, the little maid ran over, knelt on the ground, and kowtowed to Wang Xinyao to express her gratitude.

Wang Xinyao quickly helped the little maid up and said with a smile, "No need to do this. This is my duty as a doctor. Go and see your young lady."

The little maid burst into laughter and hurried into the room.

Fang Zhiyuan breathed a sigh of relief upon seeing this. He immediately clasped his fists and bowed to Wang Xinyao, expressing his gratitude: "Thank you, young lady, for saving the lives of my wife and son. We will always remember this kindness."

Wang Xinyao nodded slightly and responded, "Mr. Fang, you are too polite. I have only done my best. If there is nothing else, I will leave first." After that, Wang Xinyao prepared to turn around and leave.

However, Fang Zhiyuan suddenly spoke to stop her: "Wait, girl, please wait a moment." As he said that, he took out a silver note from his pocket!

"Miss, thank you. This is a small gift from me to express my gratitude. Please accept it! In addition, my wife is weak. Could you please come to my house frequently to check my wife's pulse during the confinement period? After all, there are no other female doctors in Ping'an Town!" Fang Zhiyuan explained his request sincerely and handed over a gift.

Wang Xinyao looked at the gift in Fang Zhiyuan's hand and couldn't help but sigh at his sincerity.

Seeing that Wang Xinyao didn't say anything, Fang Zhiyuan said again sincerely: "My son was born prematurely. Can I ask you for help?"

Wang Xinyao thought for a moment before finally nodding her head in agreement. She knew the importance of postpartum care for adults, especially with a premature baby to care for. Since she had personally delivered the child, she felt it was her responsibility to the very end.

So, she said, “Okay, I’ll try to go over there every day!”

Hearing Wang Xinyao's answer, Fang Zhiyuan was overjoyed and hurriedly thanked her: "Thank you, Miss Wang, thank you, Shopkeeper Wu!"

As he spoke, he stuffed another ingot of silver into the hands of Shopkeeper Wang to express his gratitude. The ingot looked to be at least twenty taels.

Wang Xinyao witnessed Fang Zhiyuan's actions and sighed inwardly. This man will surely achieve great things in the future because he handles things in a very appropriate way. He knows how to be grateful and is willing to express his gratitude through practical actions. Such people are often more likely to gain recognition and support from others.
