He will definitely be very angry if he can't see me!

My brother is in big trouble!

Ugh!

She suppressed her chaotic thoughts and followed the shopkeeper to the backyard of the City Lord's Mansion.

Fang Rui was standing at the door. He looked the shopkeeper up and down and said, "Haven't you tried this before?"

The shopkeeper recognized him as Ye Tianqing's aide, who was very powerful.

He quickly apologized and explained, "Mr. Fang, I've been here before. My medical skills are not very good, so I can't do anything about this kind of madness. But my niece has also studied medicine, so she wanted to give it a try!"

Fang Rui's scrutinizing gaze immediately fell on Lin Yiwan. He couldn't help but frown and said, "She doesn't look very old, but isn't it said that the older the doctor, the more skilled they are? Could she be even better than you?"

The shopkeeper thought to himself that he really didn't know how good her medical skills were, but when it came to using fine salt to remove blood-sucking leeches from the throat, he couldn't match her.

He said respectfully, "To be honest, Mr. Fang, my niece just showed off her skills in the pharmacy. You can find out if you send someone out to inquire. She knows more skills than me!"

Fang Rui winked at the guard next to him, then quickly turned and left.

Lin Yiwan immediately understood that he was going to inquire.

I didn’t expect Mr. Fang to be so cautious. It seems I have to be careful in dealing with him.

Fang Rui slowly said, "Since you have some skills, I'm curious. Who is your master?"

Lin Yiwan frowned immediately. She learned all her medical skills from her grandfather since she was a child. In addition, she studied the classics on medicine and poisons, which made her understand more and more.

But my grandfather’s name must never be spoken!

Thinking of this, she smiled awkwardly and replied softly, "I learned it from the medical books my uncle sent back home. I don't have a proper master!"

The shopkeeper reacted immediately and pretended to be shocked, saying, "Mu Yi, you are quite clever. You actually learned how to treat illnesses from those medical books. It seems like you are a natural born medical genius!"

Lin Yiwan said shyly, "Uncle, please don't praise me like that. It makes me feel uneasy!"

Fang Rui's solemn face suddenly revealed a look of disdain. He coldly rebuked, "Manager Gao, I think you're crazy about getting rich. You actually brought a half-baked doctor to the City Lord's Mansion to fool people. Are you tired of living?"

Shopkeeper Gao quickly argued, "Mr. Fang, I'm not kidding you. My niece is quite capable. Besides, it's not like those doctors out there don't have any solutions. Why don't you just let her try?"

Fang Rui had no patience left. He quickly said, "Come here, kick them out! If they dare to talk nonsense again, they will be beaten with a stick!"

Before Manager Gao could say anything, he saw the guard who had left before come back.

He whispered a few words into Fang Rui's ear, and he widened his eyes in surprise: "Huh? She really has some skills?"

The guard nodded and stepped aside without saying anything else.

Fang Rui hesitated for a moment before speaking: "Stop, don't kick them out, let this little girl go to the back room first!"

When Lin Yiwan was brought into the back room by Fang Rui, she saw a woman with disheveled hair standing with her back to the door. She was thin and looked very frail.

Perhaps she was frightened by the footsteps, and she almost subconsciously screamed and jumped onto the bed, put her hands to cover her ears, and hid in the corner of the bed, trembling all over.

She was mumbling something, but I couldn't make out what she was saying.

Lin Yiwan's originally calm expression was briefly replaced by a flash of shock the moment she saw her face clearly.

Yes, he looks exactly like my uncle!

Especially her eyebrows, which are exactly the same as her uncle's.

She subconsciously clenched her fists, and her eyes became slightly hot in an instant.

Fang Rui's voice suddenly rang out from behind her: "How is it? Can you cure this disease? She's very timid and won't let anyone get close to her easily. Don't say I didn't warn you, if you forcefully touch her, she'll hurt herself!"

Lin Yiwan was so frightened that she broke out in a cold sweat, and her mind suddenly became clear.

She almost lost her composure!

But it’s really not her fault!

In her past and present lives, she was an orphan whose parents had both passed away.

The sudden appearance of someone who looked like her mother really caught her off guard.

She never expected that from the moment she remarried Zhan Yan, everything would develop completely differently.

Is she going to have a mother?

She tried her best to suppress the throbbing in her heart, frowning and saying, "I want to try it, but my treatment method is quite secretive. I need to take off her clothes and acupuncture her back. No one is allowed to watch!"

Fang Rui blurted out, "No! This girl is extremely useful to us. If anything happens to her, you and your uncle's combined lives won't be enough to pay for it!"

Lin Yiwan asked doubtfully, "I want to save her, not kill her. What are you worried about?"

Fang Rui didn't dare leave her alone with the crazy woman, at least he couldn't make the decision.

Lin Yiwan seemed to see through his dilemma and retreated to advance, saying, "Since you are afraid of this and that, then even if I can really cure you, I can't do anything!"

Shopkeeper Gao also sighed helplessly: "It seems that I have no chance of such great wealth. Okay, we will take our leave first. Thank you for troubling Mr. Fang!"

After saying that, he turned around and walked out quickly.

Fang Rui frowned. He could see that these two people were playing a trick of retreating to advance on him.

However, if this little girl is really capable, then she can give it a try. After all, the city lord wants to use this crazy woman to completely restrain Zhan Yihou and his wife.

He thought for a moment before speaking: "Wait a moment, I will go and ask the city lord for instructions!"

After he left, Lin Yiwan mustered up the courage to walk towards the woman.

She whispered soothingly: "Don't be afraid, I'm here to heal you and will never hurt you. Can you raise your eyes and look at me?"

The woman shook her head vigorously and almost curled up in the corner of the bed.

Lin Yiwan was heartbroken beyond words. What kind of trauma had she endured to become like this? What had she been through?

Suddenly, she saw the bruises on her neck.

She almost burst into tears. These were the marks left after pinching herself repeatedly.

Damn Ye Tianqing, why did he use her!

Lin Yiwan suppressed the rage surging in her eyes, collected her thoughts and waited.

At this time, Manager Gao cautiously walked over to her and whispered, "Mu Yi, are you really sure? I've staked my entire fortune and life on you. If you can't be cured, we still have time to retreat!"

Lin Yiwan nodded heavily: "I am sure, boss, don't worry, I will never bring you any trouble!"

Shopkeeper Gao finally breathed a sigh of relief. He said worriedly, "Don't blame me for not believing you. Her illness is really tricky. It's not like it's an illness, but at least she's not seriously injured!"
