Chapter 119: 119

119 Gratitude

Lu Jiao shook her head and informed Lady Chen and her two sons, “Other than using the medication, Master Chen will need to stop eating oily, spicy, or salty food. Don’t even touch pickled products. Remember to drink lots of green tea to stabilize his blood pressure.”

Lady Chen nodded and promised to keep an eye on Master Chen.

Lu Jiao asked Qi Lei to come out and headed to the east bedroom.

“I’m going to come up with a prescription, you write it.”

Qi Lei was so impressed with Lu Jiao right now. He was very happy to have found this Master whose medical skills far surpassed his. A patient like Master Chen would’ve taken a lot longer to wake up if he was his doctor.

Ah, no. He wasn’t even sure if he would be able to wake Master Chen up.

“Okay.”

The two entered the east bedroom. Before they could get started on the prescription, Xie Yunjin anxiously asked, “Lu Jiao, how did it go? Is the Master okay?”

Lu Jiao smiled and shook her head, “He’s fine. Master Chen has taken medicine and is now awake. I’m going to write him a prescription for three months. After that, he just needs to be careful about what he eats.”

Xie Yunjin exhaled deeply in relief. There was much appreciation on his face as he stared at Lu Jiao.

“Lu Jiao, thank you.”

Lu Jiao shook her head, “There’s no need.”

This future First Assistant had promised her a favor. To have traded today’s event for a favor was a gain for her.

Lu Jiao was in a great mood.

Qi Lei found these two to be a little strange. Why were they so polite with one another? They didn’t act at all like husband and wife.

He didn’t get to think too much since Lu Jiao gestured for him to write, “Astragalus, 8 grams. Codonopsis, 7 grams. Rhizoma gastrodiae 7 grams. Uncaria, 5 grams. Uncaria rhynchophylla, 5 grams. Cyathula officinalis, 4 grams. Safflower, 3 grams.”

Lu Jiao walked up to Qi Lei and checked out the prescription he wrote. After she confirmed that there were no mistakes, she headed out the door. However, the two sons from the Chen family walked in.

When they saw Lu Jiao, they paid their respect immediately, “Thank you.”

Lu Jiao nodded and handed the prescription to the young men, “Use this prescription for three months – one bowl in the morning, one at night. After that, just remember to keep a healthy diet.”

The Chen family’s second son, Chen Muwu, said in a grateful tone, “Thank you, Lady Lu. If you ever run into trouble and need me, please ask for me.”

The Chen family had four children, three sons, and one daughter. Their eldest, Chen Muwen, was a successful candidate in the provincial imperial examinations. Their second son, Chen Muwu wasn’t a gifted student so he conducted business in town. Their third son, Chen Mushuang was still young yet he was already a pupil.

Their second son, Chen Muwu was similar in age to Xie Yunjin. They’ve always hung out until the incident with Chen Ying. Since then, their friendship ended and Xie Muwu never visited again.

Who knew the next time he visited was because Lu Jiao saved his father’s life?

Xie Muwu felt a lot of emotions at the moment. As he looked at the bedridden Xie Yunjin, he asked caringly, “I heard you got an operation. How did it go? Are you okay now?”

Xie Yunjin’s mood lifted greatly, “I’m fine now.”

He then turned to Dr. Qi, “Dr. Qi, thank you for performing surgery on me last time. I was asleep last time after the operation so I never got to thank you personally. Today, I must thank you.”

Qi Lei quickly shook his head and chuckled, “There’s no need to thank me. It’s my mission as a doctor.”

Xie Yunjin then looked to Chen Muwu, “Is the Master okay?”

Chen Muwu nodded, “He’s fine and somewhat energetic. Today, my mom was almost worried to death. Thankfully, Lady Lu saved my father, which means she also saved my mother.”

The couple has been together for decades. If something were to happen to one of them, the other one likely would fall ill as well.

Therefore, by saving Master Chen, Lu Jiao also saved Lady Chen.

Xie Yunjin smiled at Lu Jiao. This smile of his was not at all calculative but was fully genuine and appreciative.

“Thank you for everything today.”

Lu Jiao shook her head, “I did what I should’ve done. As a doctor, I should be saving lives.”

Beside her, Qi Lei gawked at Xie Yunjin with his dark eyes. He wondered what the scholar would think if he found out that it was his Master who operated on him.

Chen Muwu and Chen Mushuang chatted a little more with Xie Yunjin before he asked Lu Jiao, “Now that our dad is awake, can we get back?”

Lu Jiao nodded, “Yes, but don’t let him lie down too much. He should walk around, do light exercises, and drink some tea.”

“Okay, I got it.”

Chen Muwu and Chen Mushuang waved at Xie Yunjin, “We’ll get back then. We’ll visit you later.”

Xie Yunjin waved back gently, “Once my legs heal, I’ll visit the Master and the Lady.”

“Okay.”

Now that these two families resolved their conflict, they sounded very close.

Chen Muwu and Chen Mushuang left. Xie Yunjin asked Lu Jiao to walk them out.

“Okay.”

Qi Lei followed. In the west bedroom, Chen Muwu had already picked up Master Chen and was ready to leave.

Lady Chen thanked Lu Jiao, “Thank you, Jiaojiao. Without you, your Master may have lost his life.”

Lu Jiao quickly comforted, “The Master isn’t terminally ill. You just have to keep an eye on him. Ah right, don’t let him drink.”

“I’ve noted down everything you said. Once Yunjin heals, you must come visit.”

Lu Jiao didn’t respond and changed the subject, “Have a safe trip home.”

“Yes.”

Everyone left the Xie family home. Qi Lei whispered to Lu Jiao, “Master, remember the two woks you asked me for? I got them. You can come pick them up from the shop.”

Lu Jiao’s been longing for woks. Qi Lei’s update made her beam, “Okay, I will go into town tomorrow.”

“Okay.”

Lu Jiao then remembered the height problem with her sons and she glanced at Qi Lei.

However, she felt a little bad for inconveniencing him with everything.

Qi Lei noticed this right away and guessed that his Master needed more help.

He quickly spoke up, “Master, whatever you need, just let me know. He who teaches me for one day is my father for life. You’ve been teaching me so much and I should repay you somehow.”

Lu Jiao stopped the politeness then. She’ll work harder to teach him more things in the future.

“Thank you in advance then. I’m looking to get a female sheep. Look at my four little ones… They are malnourished because they were premature babies. They need lots of nutrition so I want to get them some milk. Cow milk is too expensive right now so if I get myself a cow just for its milk, the villagers will start rumors about me.

So I want to get my hands on a female sheep so they can drink sheep milk. That way, they can grow taller. Our village is rather south, therefore, sheeps are somewhat rare. Since you’re from the Capital City, I’m wondering if you can get your hands on a female sheep.”

This really wasn’t a big deal. It was honestly easier than getting a wok.
