Chapter 656: Seeking Medical Treatment >

ht taels. Even if it were exchanged for silver, it would only be worth seventy or eighty taels at most. That would be enough for the entire Li family to get through this hardship. 。"That's it!" Zhao S..."After some thought, I laughed and said, “I heard last time that the County Princess was learning medicine. This isn’t an easy thing, it must be very hard, right Besides anything else, just identifying herbs and memorizing prescriptions is enough to give one a headache.”

"You're telling me!" Tao Hongying said, feeling deeply for him.

These days reciting the chart, she truly understands how hard her daughter has worked!

"Luckily, Funiu is young and bright, otherwise memorizing all those books would drive her crazy..."

Jia Erfu was amused and laughed, "If passing exams were easy, wouldn't everyone be a top scholar!"

Everyone laughed. Old Lady Li pointed to a piece of cloth covering something in the corner of the room and said, “There's a copper statue hidden underneath. It’s sealed with wax on the outside, and there’s oil inside.”

Funiu'er recently used her memorized acupoint meridians. When she found the acupoints correctly, the silver needles would gush oil when inserted, but if they were wrong, they wouldn't go in.

“It's really hard on my little Fukniuer, learning some skills is truly not easy. Otherwise, she would have run off to play with Baozhu long ago!”

Mrs. Jia Er nodded repeatedly, "My little Baozhu has also been learning the rules recently. She's still lazy and not as clever as the County Princess. She often gets slapped with a board, and I feel so sorry for her that I can't sleep or eat, but I have to bear it."

Having said that, she changed the subject and asked, “There’s a rumor in the city that there’s a divine doctor on Suijin Beach who can cure all diseases. Is the county lord's master this person”

Seeing the eagerness in her eyes, Old Mrs. Li vaguely guessed something and said after a moment of thought: “Words change as they are passed around! There is indeed an old doctor in our village, and now Fu Niang is learning medicine from him.”

"But medical skill is too profound. Every doctor has their strengths and weaknesses, it's impossible to be proficient in everything."

"After spending a few years together, I've seen that Master Fu Niuer is skilled at treating injuries and regulating the body. As for other things, I don't know."

This is well said, which made Jia's second mistress even more eager.

She stepped forward and took Li Lao's hand, saying: "Old Madam may not know, my sister-in-law's home is the same one we met at the pastry shop last time, she's the mother of my niece Wan'er."

She had a difficult time giving birth that year, nearly bleeding to death. Although she was saved, she remained bedridden and recovering. She was unable to manage anything at home or outside, so she could only rely on Wan'er, who became a meticulous housekeeper through necessity.

“Today, I’m putting my face forward and asking the old madam for help. I wonder when this divine physician Fu of the county lord will have some free time, could he perhaps come to see my sister-in-law”

Hearing the words "Wan'er," both Li Lao Tai and Tao Hongying's eyes lit up.

Especially Li Lao Tai, even regretted that she had been too hard on her words earlier.

At this point, she hurried back to him, smiling and saying: “You're really a kind and righteous person, caring so much for your sister-in-law. Just for that, I'll even put my old face on the line to ask about it for you!”

As she spoke, she called for Grandma He and instructed her, "Go ask Doctor Zhang when he is free recently"

Grandma smiled and agreed, then went out.

Although Jia Erfu was preoccupied, she still forced a smile and chatted with Li Laotai and the others. Luckily, He Mamā didn't take long to return.

She reported truthfully, “Madam, Doctor Zhang is researching a new medicine again. The smell of medicine in his room is overpowering. He said that if there is a patient, as long as they are not dead, just wait seven or eight days.”

Old Mrs. Li, fearing that Second Madam Jia wouldn't be pleased, quickly explained, "Dr. Zhang just has a quick temper. He hasn't been successful in his research on new medicine lately, so he's been irritable. Don't mind him, he's still very serious about seeing patients."

"Well, in seven or eight days, Dr. Zhang will be able to see patients again. I'll have someone go to your manor and let you know."

"Well, thank you, Madam." Jia's Second Madam wasn't angry at all. People with ability rarely have bad tempers, after all they have the confidence.

The doctors Big Brother brought earlier were all polite and nice, but they were useless!

At the back, in the warm room, Baozhu was like Liu Laogen entering a grand garden.

She would run to look at the blooming flowers one moment, and the next she would go pick a bunch of grapes. She was absolutely delighted.

Jia Yin followed behind her, eating, drinking, and laughing together.

Although it's dry and cold today, the sun is shining brightly and warmer than inside.

Two little girls quickly took off their jackets. Their flushed faces were red like two apples.

Jia Yin quietly let the little fox out. The little fox wagged its bushy tail and ran around, making Baozhu overjoyed.

When Li Laotai and Tao Hongying brought along Mrs. Wen and Mrs. Jia Er to the scene, they saw the two maids playing in such a carefree manner, finding it both amusing and delightful.

As a result, after a while they were sweating profusely, so someone was assigned to guard the door. They took off their jackets and spent the summer in the warm room.

When it snowed for the first time, the Hou residence sent over two sheep.

A whole village ate and drank the lamb soup that was boiled.

There is one left, the mutton is cut down and rolled up frozen into a cylinder, becoming mutton rolls.

At this time, the brass brazier was boiling with the duck and goose pot, directly picking up small green vegetables in the warm room, serving various meat balls, fish balls, prawns, etc., paired with freshly sliced mutton, it is simply the best dish for entertaining guests in winter.

As for who sliced the lamb,

There may be a shortage of people around the house, but when it comes to wielding knives, there's an abundance!

Both Li Laosi and Ye Shan are capable enough.

The slices of mutton were thin and tender, of course they couldn't taste it!

Today's banquet, it is a woman's world.

In the warm room, flowers of all colors bloomed in a riot of color, their fragrance filling the air.

A variety of leafy greens are a vibrant green, while bunches of grapes hang from the shelves. On the vines, slender cucumbers glisten with moisture.

The hot pot in front of me, the bone broth is rich and fragrant, and the spicy hot pot is passionate.

The vegetables are fresh and crisp, the meat is satisfying, every bite is a rare treat.

If it weren't for the glass canopy overhead, the bitter wind would be howling, whipping snow into a flurry. No one would believe this was happening in the middle of winter...

"Today, I've truly been enjoying the good life with my mother-in-law. This place is incredible, like a paradise on earth!"

After a satisfying meal, Jia Erfu held her heated face, setting aside the airs of a mistress for once. She seemed to have returned to her days as a young girl, acting coquettishly towards Old Li.

"From now on, you can call me 'aunt,' not 'old madam' anymore. Aunt must treat me like your own niece. I'm going to come begging for favors every day and cling to you!"

"And me, and me!" Baozhu, with a meatball in her mouth, quickly raised her hand high, afraid her mother would leave her behind.

The Li family and Mrs. Wen were both laughing uncontrollably. Li Laotai then said: "Whoever wants to come, please do. I'm getting old, and I just like a lively household. It's a pity that my children are all grown up and not around anymore. I've been feeling so lonely at home."

Jia Erfu immediately climbed up the ladder, "With your aunt's words, then I can put on a bold face and treat this place as my second home."

People like her free-spirited nature and approachable way of speaking.

Tao Hongying recently practiced with sheet music, pointing out her headache areas for advice.

Jia Er's wife spoke with authority, her words clearer than Wen's. She even mixed in some hidden secrets between families.

For example, there are those whose families have concubines who kill their wives, some whose mothers-in-law are tyrannical and torment their daughters-in-law, and some whose second wives are sisters-in-law who suffocate the first wife...

All in all, everyone enjoyed the meal very much.

After the dinner table was cleared, everyone grabbed a reclining chair and continued chatting excitedly about gossip.

Jiayin and Baozhu sat under the grape arbor, eating grapes and eavesdropping on a commotion....ere fearless.The magistrate waved his hand and said, "I will send two officers to escort you back and supervise your clansmen's return of the property. However, you are not allowed to leave the vicini...
