Exile at the start? The princess is no ordinary woman.

"Nanzhi, you are our family's savior. Consider these things a token of my gratitude, please accept them..."

Uncle Zhou echoed this sentiment.

"Miss Jun, thank you for saving my second son. Please accept these gifts as a token of our gratitude. You are our family's savior. If you ever need any help in the future, please just let us know."

"Miss Jun, thank you..."

The whole family was expressing their gratitude to Gu Nanzhi, and Zhou Xiangyang himself bowed to Gu Nanzhi and thanked her sincerely.

"Miss Jun, thank you for saving my life..."

The people who had followed also watched all of this in silence.

Looking at the chickens, ducks, and plenty of vegetables that Aunt Zhou's family had brought, Gu Nanzhi couldn't help but admire their generosity. She realized they hadn't made a mistake in saving them.

"Uncle Zhou, Aunt Zhou, Brother Zhou, Xiangyang, you're too kind. We'll all be from the same village from now on, and we've received a lot of help from you, Aunt, since we're new here. I couldn't just stand by and do nothing about this; it was just a small thing. As long as Xiangyang is alright, that's all that matters."

Gu Nanzhi was also polite, assuming that the people who had followed her were there to see what was going on, probably because of the Zhou family's publicity. The news that she was a novice doctor would spread quickly throughout the village after this incident...

"Auntie, Uncle Zhou, Xiangyang, now that you're here, I don't have to make a trip. You've already taken the first dose of medicine a while ago. Let me examine you a bit more."

Aunt Zhou didn't mince words with this; after all, her child's condition had improved, but she was still worried until he was fully recovered.

"Okay, okay, Nanzhi, then I'll leave it to you."

"It's no trouble at all, Auntie."

Gu Nanzhi, laughing and joking, took Zhou Xiangyang's pulse again and examined him.

"Uncle Zhou, Auntie, you can rest assured. Xiangyang is fine now. The poison was neutralized in time, and there is only a little residual poison in his body. After he finishes the remaining two doses of medicine, it will be cleared out. He will fully recover after resting for two days."

The Zhou family was overjoyed to receive this result. "Thank goodness! Thank goodness everyone's alright! Otherwise, how could we possibly bear it?"

Aunt Zhou held Gu Nanzhi's hand, repeatedly expressing her gratitude. Only the word "thank you" could truly express her feelings at that moment.

"Okay, okay, Nanzhi, thank you, thank you."

"Miss Jun, thank you."

"Uncle Zhou, Auntie, Xiangyang, please don't stand on ceremony. We're all from the same village, so it's only right that I help. It was just something I did. If I didn't know medicine, I wouldn't be able to help in this emergency."

"It's nothing, Auntie, Uncle. We have too much stuff. We have everything else, so I won't stand on ceremony and accept these greens. As for the chicken and goose, you can take them home..."

Gu Nanzhi didn't plan to accept so many gifts, but it wouldn't be possible if they weren't familiar with each other at all...

Since the gifts were sent over, it meant they were willing to give them away, so Aunt Zhou didn't let Gu Nanzhi be too eager to accept them.

"It's not much, Nanzhi, please accept it. These chickens and geese are all raised at home, and the vegetables are all grown by ourselves. Nanzhi, you've only just arrived and you've been building houses and making furniture. The fields haven't even been cleared yet, and we haven't grown anything to eat. You must accept it."

"Miss Jun, you must accept this. It's not worth much, it's all from our own family, please don't look down on it..."

"How could I possibly mind? Uncle Zhou and Auntie are too kind..."

The Zhou family came mainly to thank Gu Nanzhi, so Gu Nanzhi was the main focus throughout, while Jun Yanchen quietly watched everything from the sidelines.

The others took it upon themselves to entertain the villagers who had come, without disturbing the conversation between the main characters.

The villagers who followed were now certain of what they had been thinking.

Look at how focused and skillful Gu Nanzhi was when she took the pulse just now; only someone with medical knowledge could do that.

Most importantly, the fact that Zhou Xiangyang is standing here safe and sound is the most convincing evidence.

After all, it wasn't uncommon for people in the village to have lost their lives due to snake bites in the past...

"Young Lady Jun, you really know medicine! Are you a doctor? I never imagined you could acquire such skills at such a young age..."

"Young Lady Jun, you are truly intelligent. Even ordinary doctors struggle with snake venom, yet you are so skilled..."

Once the main characters had finished speaking, the villagers who had come to watch the spectacle began to chatter amongst themselves.

"Young Lady Jun, since you are a doctor, could you please take a look at my mother...?"

"Yes, yes, and me too, Miss Jun. Could you please take a look at my cough and prescribe a remedy for me...?"

Faced with everyone's enthusiasm, Gu Nanzhi accepted it all; after all, no one doesn't want to be healthy.

Since there was no doctor in the village, she would temporarily act as the village doctor, which would make things much easier for her afterwards.

People will inevitably need a doctor's help someday, so normally no one would want to offend one.

"Thank you all for your kindness. I do have some medical skills and can treat some minor ailments. If you trust me and are interested, please come to me if you need medical treatment in the future, and I will do my best..."

"Good, good, Miss Jun, that's wonderful! With you here, our village will have a doctor from now on. We won't have to run to the neighboring village or the city for a minor illness anymore; we can get treatment right here in the village..."

"Yes, yes, yes, that's good news, that's good news."

Having gained everyone's approval, Gu Nanzhi simply began examining the man who claimed to have a cough on the spot.

"Uncle Wang, has this cough been constant? Is it dry or does it contain phlegm? Is there any chance of coughing up blood...?"

"Dry cough, with occasional coughing up of blood..."

Uncle Wang cooperated with the consultation, and everyone else waited quietly for the results. Seeing the skill firsthand was another form of affirmation.

After inquiring about the situation and carefully taking the pulse, Gu Nanzhi arrived at a conclusion.

"Uncle Wang, you have symptoms of lung yin deficiency. Your pulse is thready and rapid, you have a dry cough with little blood, and your tongue is red with little coating..."

I happen to have these medicines at home. Wait a moment, and I'll prepare a few doses of medicine to nourish yin, moisten the lungs, and relieve phlegm and cough for you to take home. Try them for a few days and see how it goes..."

"Alright, alright, thank you very much, Miss Jun. Please prepare some medicine for me, and I'll send you the money later."

"No need. I usually gather herbs from the mountains myself. Some of the herbs I have at home are free, but if you don't have them, you'll need to buy them yourself from a pharmacy in town..."
