Chapter 36: Lin Suisui’s Carefulness!

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

“Mother, I’ve found a doctor for her. Liu Niang said that she knows medicine and can help her treat her illness!”

Fang Rui’er naturally heard everything that was said inside. She was afraid that her mother would be soft-hearted, so she nodded and dragged Lin Suisui in.

“Why are you still so careless?!” Mrs. Luo was shocked by Fang Rui’er’s sudden appearance, especially when she saw Lin Suisui, who had been pulled in by her.

Mrs. Luo naturally had her own guesses.

However, everyone knew that if they couldn’t get evidence now, everything could only be speculation!

Therefore, Mrs. Luo had originally planned to spend some money to resolve the problem and send the sisters away first. However, she didn’t expect her daughter to appear at this critical moment and ruin things!

“Treatment is not a joke. Don’t bully Liu Niang. Hurry up and send her back to rest!”

Mrs. Luo subconsciously wanted to quickly disassociate Lin Suisui from this matter. She kept winking at Fang Rui’er, who was at the front.

Seeing this, Lin Suisui could actually easily guess her good intentions. She didn’t give Mrs. Luo any time to make things difficult for Fang Rui’er. She already smiled and said, “Mrs. Luo, I wanted to come over myself.”

“I heard from Rui’er that this girl has had a high fever for more than a day. If she doesn’t think of a way to get rid of this fever, she’ll be in danger. I happen to know a little about medicine, so I thought of coming over to take a look at her.”

Seeing how confident Lin Suisui was, although Mrs. Luo was still a little hesitant, she didn’t stop her in the end. Just as she was about to stand up and make way for her, Du Juan’er, who had been crying and saying that no one was willing to treat her sister, actually got up from the ground and opened her arms to block Lin Suisui.

“No, I disagree!”

Her eyes flickered. Although she was trying her best to maintain her composure, her trembling voice still revealed her panic and uneasiness.

“You’re just an ordinary woman. How can you treat someone?! My sister is seriously ill now. If you treat her but harm her in the end, what will happen?!”

“Since I promised to come over to take a look, I’m naturally confident. Your sister’s fever hasn’t subsided yet. I’m afraid simple medicine won’t work.” Lin Suisui glanced at Du Miao’er, who was lying in bed with her cheeks burning. She said calmly and confidently, “If you really want to save your sister, move aside now!”

“You, you…”

Du Juan’er wanted to struggle and stop her again, but Fang Rui’er, who was a few steps away, pulled her away. Although Fang Rui’er didn’t know the details, she knew that saving people was more important now. She didn’t want to hear her chatter anymore.

Seeing that the way had been cleared, Lin Suisui didn’t say anything else to Du Juan’er. She walked over and first took Du Miao’er’s pulse before taking out a needle bag. As she skillfully applied the needle to a few acupuncture points, she said to reassure Mrs. Luo, “Don’t worry, it’s not a big deal. I’ll apply the needle to her acupuncture points first and ask Rui’er to follow me back later. I’ll prepare the medicine and boil it for her. Three bowls of water will be boiled three times a day. She’ll be fine after drinking it for two days.”

“I didn’t expect you to really know medicine.”

Mrs. Luo was originally very worried, but when she saw Lin Suisui’s skillfulness, she finally relaxed. She smiled and praised, “In the future, if anyone has a headache or fever, I’ll rely on you.”

Lin Suisui waited for a while before putting away the silver needles and asking Fang Rui’er to follow her to get the medicine.

From the beginning to the end, she didn’t say another word to Du Juan’er. It was as if she, the patient’s relative, didn’t exist at all.

“Are you sure my sister will be fine?!” Lin Suisui didn’t want to talk to her anymore, but that didn’t mean that Du Juan’er would give up. Seeing that Lin Suisui was about to leave, she finally couldn’t help but rush out and shout at her back, “If my sister’s condition worsens, how are you going to take responsibility?!”

“Du Juan’er, as a doctor, I have a word of loyalty to give to you sisters. No matter what happens, your body is yours. If you don’t cherish it and treat your body as a joke, even if the medicine god descends, he won’t be able to save your sister at all!”

Lin Suisui stopped and turned to look at Du Juan’er with a smile. She didn’t stand on ceremony with her at all.

After lecturing Du Juan’er, Lin Suisui turned around and left quickly. Fang Rui’er was confused, but when she saw Lin Suisui leave, she didn’t think too much about it. She turned around and ran after Lin Suisui.

“Liu Niang, what do you mean by that?!”

Fang Rui’er followed Lin Suisui back to her and Lu Ze’s ox cart. She surrounded Lin Suisui, who was collecting herbs, and kept asking questions.

“Do you mean that Du Miao’er’s illness is fake?!”

“She’s not pretending. I just took her pulse. Her body is indeed very weak.” Lin Suisui shook her head, but thinking of the Du family’s actions today, she hesitated for a moment before saying her guess. “I just think that the Du family’s stepmother might be thinking of using this matter to extort money.”

“Could it be that there’s something wrong with the doctor they’re talking about?!” Although Fang Rui’er reacted slowly, she was not stupid. After Lin Suisui’s reminder, she immediately understood the main point of this entire matter.

“That’s right. We only confirmed that you know medicine after you went over to take Du Miao’er’s pulse. But we’ve never seen the doctor that Du Juan’er highly recommended just now!

If, by any chance, he was hired by the Du family’s stepmother to mess around, wouldn’t the money we paid be for nothing?!”

“Besides, he can also say that we’re on the way to the north now, so the conditions are tough, and the herbs he has are limited. In order to treat Du Miao’er’s illness, he has to spend more money.”

Lin Suisui wrapped up the medicine she had prepared and raised her hand to hand it to Fang Rui’er. Then, she said very seriously, “Actually, I also hope that this speculation is just me being petty.

But it didn’t hurt to be careful!

“Go back and tell your mother that from today onwards until Du Miao’er recovers from her illness, no matter how the Du family causes trouble, no matter how Du Juan’er stirs up trouble, no one can touch what she eats!

Whether it was medicine or food, it was all the same!

If the Du family’s stepmother is unwilling, just say that as long as Du Miao’er leaves your tent and receives treatment from others, and if any illness worsens, it will have nothing to do with your family!”
