Chapter 1948: Chapter 1948: This Is Just Too Much (Part 1)
Zheng Xianrou hadn’t expected Yang Ruxin to be so straightforward, but it suited her temperament better. However, this wasn’t the time for chatting, so she swiftly took her leave.
Yang Ruxin initially didn’t intend to ask for money, as they were innocently implicated after all. Yet, not asking for money might invite gossip, so it was more straightforward to accept money, even if it meant being accused of profiteering. Considering Dao Xuzi’s reputation, the price wasn’t high at all. Furthermore, she provided compensation: the potion was an antidote, and the medicine pill had beauty-enhancing effects.
Only two days after Zheng Xianrou’s departure, the Gluttonous Store bustled once more. This time, it wasn’t just servants and butlers visiting; it was all the household mistresses, each bringing their own young lady.
Everyone had been watching when Zheng Xianrou previously sought Yang Ruxin’s treatment, naturally eager to see the results. To their surprise, it was said that the rash noticeably faded after bathing that same night and never flared up again. By the next morning, after taking the medicine pill, the rash completely disappeared.
Consequently, everyone acknowledged that this Divine Doctor was the real deal.
"Oh my God, isn’t this just too exaggerated?" In a carriage blocked outside the store, Qi Zizi’s round eyes widened, mouth agape, looking utterly shocked.
"What’s so surprising? Sister Xin’s medical skills are truly remarkable." Hen Ziyue was full of admiration, "My grandfather had diagnosed Sister Xianrou before but was helpless. This morning, he examined her again and found the toxins in her body were gone. He even considered apprenticing under Sister Xin, but feared he might scare her away..."
"But you might have a chance to become her apprentice." Jiang Fangfei gave Hen Ziyue a look.
"I’ve thought about it, but I’m afraid Sister Xin won’t agree..." Hen Ziyue sighed. She had subtly hinted at it before, but Sister Xin hadn’t taken the bait.
"You need to show sincerity." Qi Zizi frowned, "Do you think becoming an apprentice is easy? Especially with someone as formidable as Sister Xin, haven’t you noticed how arrogant those quack doctors are?"
"That’s true." Jiang Fangfei nodded, "You need not only sincerity but also persistence. I’ve noticed Sister Xin actually responds more to soft approaches. Have you seen Yu Qingge beside her? Always hugging her arm and acting coquettishly, even though she’s a month older, yet calling her ’sister’ all the time. Can Sister Xin do anything about it?"
"But..." Hen Ziyue appeared conflicted, "But I’m not thick-skinned like that."
"Then practice it more." Jiang Fangfei reached out and patted Hen Ziyue’s shoulder, "Think about how it would feel to become a Divine Doctor surpassing even your grandfather..."
Hen Ziyue furrowed her brow, clenched her fist, and said, "Alright, I’ll... I’ll pester Sister Xin relentlessly from now on."
"Now we need to get off and walk in." Jiang Fangfei said, opening the carriage door, "Otherwise, we won’t make it in time for Sister Xin’s lunch."
"County Lord?" Just as they got off, someone jumped over from behind, "Why are you here too?"
"Sister Zheng, we’re here to mooch a meal at Sister Xin’s, but it turns out we couldn’t get in." Qi Zizi pouted, looking discontented.
"No worries, the General Residence has a back entrance." Zheng Xianrou responded with a mysterious smile, "Let’s go."
Yang Ruxin was indeed busy. She had ten people seeking treatment today, the most challenging being the daughter of Minister of the Criminal Department Jiao Jinjun, whose rash had begun to become purulent.
