Zhang residence.
Lu Tianlan led a doctor into the residence. “Doctor, look at what happened to our young master. He suddenly became paralyzed.”
Actually, he was not paralyzed. He was just weak and couldn’t move, so everyone thought that he was paralyzed.
The doctor entered the room filled with the smell of medicine and took Zhang Ziyang’s pulse. He frowned. “There’s nothing wrong with his body.”
Lu Tianlan was a little dumbfounded. She had already hired four or five doctors, and every doctor said the same thing. “Doctor, are you sure there’s no problem?”
The doctor looked at Lu Tianlan angrily. “If you don’t believe me, find someone else.” With that, he picked up the first aid kit and left.
Lu Tianlan was anxious. What should she do?
Zhang Ziyang, who was on the bed, also heard the doctor’s words. He was furious and wanted to roar, but because he was powerless, the sound he made was very soft, like a kitten meowing.
“What’s wrong with me? What’s wrong with me?”
Zhang Ziyang suddenly felt a sense of panic. He felt like he was about to die.
He was going to die!
He called out to Lu Tianlan, “Tianlan, Tianlan…”
Lu Tianlan quickly ran to the bed. “Young Master, what’s wrong?” Her wealth was closely related to Zhang Ziyang. If Zhang Ziyang died, she would lose everything.
Zhang Ziyang used all his strength and his face turned red. He said, “Go and invite Chu Qingzhi. Chu Qingzhi’s medical skills are brilliant. She can save me.”
Lu Tianlan suddenly remembered that Chu Qingzhi had been conferred the title of the baroness because she had used her medical skills to save the refugees. “Young Master, I’ll go immediately.”
Zhang Ziyang relaxed and lay on the bed. The panic in his heart slowly dissipated. Chu Qingzhi would definitely be able to save him.
Lu Tianlan came to the Chu Village in a carriage.
However, she was not very lucky. Chu Qingzhi was still in school and had not returned, so she looked for Shen Ruyue.
In the central room of the old house, Shen Ruyue poured a cup of tea for Lu Tianlan. “Tianlan, why are you in such a hurry? What happened?”
Recently, Shen Ruyue and Chu Xuhua had been in a sweet relationship. She looked very radiant. Lu Tianlan knew that Shen Ruyue was doing well when she saw her face. She was filled with envy.
Lu Tianlan calmed herself down and said helplessly, “Ruyue, 1 want to look for Chu Qingzhi.”
“Why are you looking for Qingzhi?” Shen Ruyue became vigilant. Lu Tianlan was Zhang Ziyang’s servant girl, and Zhang Ziyang was famous for being lecherous. Could it be that he had designs on Qingzhi?
Lu Tianlan said anxiously, “Young Master is sick. He wants Chu Qingzhi to treat him.”
Shen Ruyue was a little suspicious. Zhang Ziyang clearly looked healthy a few days ago. How could he get sick all of a sudden? Could it be that the master and servant were plotting something?
“Tianlan, Qingzhi is very busy. She might not have time. There are so many doctors in the county. Don’t tell me they can’t treat him.”
Seeing that Shen Ruyue was unwilling, Lu Tianlan quickly said, “I’ve already invited many doctors, but those quacks said that Young Master is not sick. Young Master can’t even get out of bed. It’s difficult for him to even turn around.”
Hearing this, Shen Ruyue felt that Lu Tianlan was lying. How could there be such a strange illness? It must be their scheme.
“Tianlan, go back first. Qingzhi has something to do and will not be back for a while.”
Lu Tianlan suddenly knelt down in front of Shen Ruyue. “Ruyue, tell me where Chu Qingzhi is. I’ll go look for her, okay?”
Shen Ruyue was very surprised to see Lu Tianlan kneeling. Did something really happen?
But… she was happy to see it happen. Why should she help?
“Tianlan, I really can’t help you. Besides, 1 work for Qingzhi. She won’t listen to me.”
Lu Tianlan held Shen Ruyue’s hand and said tearfully, “Ruyue, you’re the only one who can help now. Can you help us?”
“What are you two doing?” Chu Qingzhi came back from school. The moment she returned, she heard crying in the room.
Shen Ruyue quickly explained the reason…
Chu Qingzhi was not surprised at all. “Go back. My medical skills are limited. I can’t treat such a strange illness.”
When Lu Tianlan heard this, her face turned pale. Chu Qingzhi was her last hope. “Miss Chu, if you can treat the epidemic, why can’t you treat my young master’s illness?”
Chu Qingzhi was speechless. “Miss, you’re being unreasonable. An epidemic is an epidemic. Your young master’s illness is another illness. Have you seen any doctor who can treat all illnesses?”
Lu Tianlan knelt in front of Chu Qingzhi and begged, “Miss, at least go and take a look. What if you can?”
Chu Qingzhi thought about it. Ruyue was in jail for two years because of Zhang Ziyang. What was done was done, but she had to make him compensate Ruyan.
“It’s fine if you want me to go and take a look, but my consultation fee is very expensive. The call-out fee is 200 taels, and the fee for taking the pulse fee is 200 taels. You have to pay for the prescription as well. Are you sure you want me to treat him?”
Lu Tianlan was desperate and agreed to everything. “Sure, sure. Our young master is rich.”
Chu Qingzhi shrugged. “Then give me the money.”
Lu Tianlan quickly said, “I don’t have that much money with me now. I’ll go back and get it immediately.”
Shen Ruyue grabbed Chu Qingzhi’s hand, not wanting her to go. “Qingzhi, are you really going to treat Zhang Ziyang?”
Chu Qingzhi smiled and said, “Treat him? Dream on. 1 want money.”
Shen Ruyue was stunned for a moment before she smiled. “The Zhang family is quite rich. We can scam more.”
“Exactly.”
Under Xu Songnian’s meticulous care, the three wolf cubs slowly recovered. Their fur was oily and they were lively. The henhouse was no longer enough for them to move around. They ran out and crawled around.
Wu Yaqing also liked the three wolf cubs very much. She walked over and grabbed one. She played with it and placed it back on the ground. “How long will it take for them to grow up?”
Xu Songnian caught a wolf cub that almost ran out of the house. “They’ll grow up in half a year.”
Wu Yaqing scratched the wolf cub’s furry head. “So long?”
Xu Songnian brought the other two wolf cubs to Wu Yaqing. “But they’ll be imposing when you grow up, so the wait is worth it.”
Wu Yaqing touched their ears and smiled innocently. “Grow faster. Let me see how mighty you look.”
“Fifth Cousin.” Xu Songnian suddenly saw Chu Qingzhi walking over.
Chu Qingzhi smiled and nodded at him. “The wolf cubs are growing well.”
Xu Songnian was rarely praised. He was a little embarrassed. “I’ll definitely work hard to do what Fifth Cousin asked me to do.”
Wu Yaqing stood up and looked at her eagerly. “Qingzhi, can you bring me along when you are out doing things in the future?”
Chu Qingzhi looked at the energetic Wu Yaqing and smiled. “Are you bored?”
Wu Yaqing waved her hand. “I’m not bored, but 1 think it’s more fun to follow you.”
Chu Qingzhi agreed. “I’ll bring you next time.”
Wu Yaqing went forward and hugged Chu Qingzhi. “Qingzhi, I like you the most.”
Chu Qingzhi teased, “If you have a husband in the future, you won’t say such things.”
Speaking of this, Wu Yaqing was depressed. “My husband is still hiding something, but he can’t compare to you. You’re the person I like the most..”
