Chapter 265: 269

269 A Little Experiment

Lu Jiao also looked at Mo Bei in awe. This person had always talked down on her because she wanted money, yet today, he was willingly giving her 5,000 taels of silver.

There was no reason for her not to accept.

Lu Jiao smiled, “Okay.”

Mo Bei stared at her smile and silently muttered, her medical skill was truly amazing. Her greed was also truly amazing.

No matter what, he couldn’t afford to offend this one in case she refuses to help whoever he brings next.

Mo Bei said to Zhao Lingfeng again, “Remember to give Lady Lu her 5,000.”

Zhao Lingfeng almost hit him. Why did he have to pay for something Mo Bei promised?

Mo Bei’s face seemed to say, “Your money is the master’s money. This person is the master’s person. It’s the same whether you pay or not.”

Zhao Lingfeng couldn’t say anything except to peer at Lu Jiao and say, “Don’t worry. I will have someone deliver it to you.”

Lu Jiao grinned and nodded, “Great. Then I will see if there are more patients outside.”

Zhao Lingfeng noticed that she appeared tired, “It’s late. You should rest and eat before working more.”

Lu Jiao agreed. She truly was tired after surgery and needed a break before she continued.

“Okay, then I will go rest first.”

Zhao Lingfeng quickly let her know, “It’s our grand opening so we ordered lots of food from the restaurant. You and Scholar Xie should stay and eat here.”

Lu Jiao heard “Scholar Xie” and couldn’t help but ask, “My husband still hasn’t gone home?”

She thought Xie Yunjin would’ve gone home.

Zhao Lingfeng raised an eyebrow. He didn’t know what was wrong with that guy. He was helping out at the front and in the back. Zhao Lingfeng had no idea that Xie Yunjin could be this nice.

He said to Lu Jiao, “Scholar Xie is out front helping manager Li with the patients. He’s been occupying himself all morning.”

Lu Jiao’s face dropped a little. Xie Yunjin’s legs have only had two months to heal. He wasn’t ready to pace around so much.

She then ignored Zhao Lingfeng and Mo Bei and walked forward. After a few short steps, Feng Zhi appeared.

Feng Zhi helped stabilize Lu Jiao after she saw how exhausted she was, “Ma’am, are you okay? Do you need to go home and rest?”

“Yes.”

Lu Jiao responded before she asked, “Where’s my husband?”

“He’s helping out in the front. There are many patients today and it’s very busy. The workers they hired can’t keep up so the master is stepping in. It’s been hectic all morning. I’ve also been helping out.”

Their lady had a stake in this Baohe Tang, which meant this place was also the servants. Of course, they had to help out.

Lu Jiao frowned. She held onto Feng Zhi’s arm, walked to the front, and saw Xie Yunjin helping manager Li with figuring out where to put the patients. He led different groups of patients to different doctors, then he led another group to the pharmacy section.

Essentially, he took no breaks. Lu Jiao couldn’t help herself and shouted, “Xie Yunjin.”

Xie Yunjin turned around and saw Lu Jiao. Her face was drained of energy and Xie Yunjin couldn’t help but to feel his heart ache.

He didn’t show it, however. Now that he was technically “separated” from Lu Jiao, his over-enthusiasm would only alert Lu Jiao. He had to take this slowly.

Xie Yunjin walked up to her and said calmly, “You’re done? You look exhausted. Do you want to go home and rest?”

Lu Jiao nodded, then said, “You are coming with me.”

Xie Yunjin glanced around, “There are still a lot of people. This place needs help.”

“They can deal with the patients slowly. It’s only busy today because consultation is free today. Once we start charging tomorrow, it won’t be crazy like this.”

Lu Jiao then took a look at Xie Yunjin’s legs, “Your legs haven’t healed. Don’t overdo it. Let’s go back.”

Xie Yunjin’s lips curled up slightly.

As he had expected, she had a soft heart but a harsh mouth. To those who showed kindness towards her, she showed kindness back. No matter what, one’s attitude could not be stubborn when talking to her.

Xie Yunjin had a pretty good idea of what he should do next. His mood had lifted through the room and his smile brought light to his face. The way his kind eyes looked made him appear very handsome.

Many people were stunned by his appearance and started to gossip.

“Which master is that? He’s so good-looking.”

“I know him. He’s a scholar from the school. I heard he placed first on his exam.”

“Ah, so he’s a pupil. How amazing. I’m afraid he’ll become an official in the future.”

“Naturally.”

There were all sorts of discussions going on. Lu Jiao and Xie Yunjin pretended not to hear and the two of them left Baohe Tang with Feng Zhi.

Later in the afternoon, Lu Jiao went back to Baohe Tang to do consultations while Xie Yunjin and Lin Dong went to teach students.

At night, Xie Yunjin didn’t come back for dinner. However, he did ask Lin Dong to send the message that he was busy and will come home later.

Lu Jiao was exhausted and merely nodded to acknowledge it. After dinner, she told the four little ones a story and tucked them into bed. She, herself, went to sleep afterward as well.

At midnight, there was a knock on the front courtyard gate.

Though Lu Jiao slept in the back courtyard, she was still startled awake by the front courtyard. She got out of bed to go outside when Feng Zhi walked in.

Feng Zhi slept in the back courtyard in case Lu Jiao needed something at night.

“Lady Lu.”

“Go check out what’s going on in the front courtyard.”

She was scared something had happened suddenly since she had just offended Liang Ziwen. There was no reason for anyone to look for them since they just moved in. Plus, it was the middle of the night.

Feng Zhi did as told. Before she got very far, she saw Xie Yunjin and Lu Gui walking over. Beside them was a worker from Baohe Tang, Zhang Er.

Feng Zhi bowed towards Xie Yunjin, “Master.”

Xie Yunjin nodded and asked, “Lady Lu woke up from the noise?”

Feng Zhi answered, “Yes, Lady Lu had sent me to check out what’s going on.”

The group then went back to the back courtyard. Lu Jiao was already dressed and was peering from the stone steps.

When she saw the worker from Baohe Tang, she stopped panicking. So a patient needed her – that was no big deal.

She was just concerned that Liang Ziwen was plotting something against her family.

“Baohe Tang got an emergency patient?”

Zhang Er answered quickly, “Lady Lu, that is the case. The patient is one of the great surnames in the Qinghe district – the young master of the Liang family.”

Lu Jiao subconsciously stared, “You are referring to…?”

“Young master Liang, Liang Ziwen.”

Lu Jiao quickly looked for Xie Yinjun. She recalled that Xie Yunjin didn’t come home for dinner tonight because he had to deal with something.

Could Liang Ziwen’s injury be caused by Xie Yunjin?
