Chu Yue looked at the door cautiously.
"who is it?"
"Sister Chu, it's me."
"Sister Shen!" She looked at Ningdong hurriedly, "Ningdong, hurry up and open the door."
Ningdong Fushen said, "Yes."
Chu Yue stood up and welcomed Shen Zhixue into the inn, "Why did sister come to the provincial capital?"
Shen Zhixue followed Chu Yue and sat down in front of the window.
"I knew there was a business opening here in the provincial capital, so I came here to take a look. I heard that you were treating Mrs. Jiang at Jiang Mansion this morning?"
She looked at Chu Yue and asked.
Chu Yue smiled and poured a glass of water for Shen Zhixue.
"Sister Shen is really well informed."
Shen Zhixue pursed her lips and smiled, "I have certainly heard about what has spread throughout the provincial capital. Now my sister is a famous figure wherever she goes."
Chu Yue raised her eyebrows slightly.
"I just came out of Jiang Mansion not long ago, and the news spread so fast?"
"Maybe the Jiang Mansion wanted to build momentum for you, so they didn't suppress the news deliberately. This is a good thing." Shen Zhixue picked up the teacup in front of her and took a sip, "I went to see the Hongyan Pavilion. The business was really good. I didn't expect my sister. Ming Sheng has made such a big noise, but I couldn't do it no matter what. I have persisted in working at the shop in the county for a long time to have the influence I have now."
Chu Yue smiled.
"Our starting points are different. The shop here in the provincial capital seems to be doing good business at the moment. In the future, it will have to rely on word of mouth and accumulation. Unlike my sister's place, they are all loyal customers."
Shen Zhixue sighed and said jokingly, "If I had known this, I should have asked you for more dick."
Chu Yue looked at her.
"I still have some stocks left in my hand that are ready to be released, but they are all intended to be given to key people. Sister Shen also knows that if we want to expand Hongyan Pavilion to all parts of Nanyuan Kingdom, we can only rely on the influence of a few current partners. The force is far from enough.”
Shen Zhixue nodded.
"What I know is that when Hongyan Pavilion opens all over Nanyuan in the future, the five shares in my hand now are enough for me to have enough food and clothing."
Chu Yue smiled and looked at her, "How is Mrs. Shen's health lately?"
"Since the weather has turned hotter, it seems to be getting better." A trace of relief flashed on Shen Zhixue's face.
Now that the middle child in the mansion is back in the hands of her mother, she no longer has to worry about home all the time.
Chu Yue nodded, "Now that she's getting better, let her do more rehabilitation exercises and stop taking the medicine for the time being."
Shen Zhixue responded, "Okay, just listen to my sister."
The two of them drank tea and chatted until dusk before they knew it.
"Ah, Sister Shen, have you arranged a place to stay today?"
Shen Zhixue smiled, "The shopkeeper and I want the room next to yours."
Chu Yue nodded.
"Sister Shen just came to the provincial capital, why don't I treat you to dinner? I heard that the food at Yanqiju in the provincial capital is very good, and it's not far from this inn. Why don't we go there and try it?"
Shen Zhixue nodded happily.
"my pleasure."
…
Shen Zhixue stayed in the provincial capital for three days and then left.
Seven days later, Chu Yue went to Jiang Mansion for a follow-up consultation. Before she arrived, several doctors from Jiang Mansion arrived first.
These days when Chu Yue didn't come, these doctors were watching over Mrs. Jiang. Seeing her getting better and stronger day by day, they became more and more convinced of Chu Yue.
At that time, Mrs. Jiang's complexion improved a lot, and she could swallow things slowly. From time to time, she would go for a walk in the courtyard with the help of her maid.
Seeing Chu Yuelai, Mrs. Jiang's face was filled with joy from the bottom of her heart.
"Doctor Chu is here."
Because her tongue was too big, she couldn't speak clearly, but based on her mouth shape and pronunciation, Chu Yue could make a rough guess.
She quickly came to the bed and held Mrs. Jiang's hand. Her previously cold palm could now feel warmth.
"Look at the old lady's appearance, is she feeling better recently?"
The grandma on the side smiled quickly and replied, "Doctor Chu is right. The old lady has been able to eat by herself recently. Her body has relaxed a lot, her sleep has improved, and her mood has become happier."
The servants like them saw this change and were happy in their hearts.
Chu Yue pursed her lips and smiled, very happy for Mrs. Jiang. After diagnosing her pulse carefully, she looked at the old woman beside her.
"Has the old lady been vomiting blood recently?"
Grandma hurriedly replied, "Yes, she vomited every day. When she vomited a lot at first, it was scary to see. Fortunately, the old lady got better every time after vomiting, so we followed Dr. Chu's instructions in advance. Yes, observe first."
Chu Yue nodded.
"If there are no special circumstances, it's okay to vomit some blood. As long as the old lady is in good spirits, it means she is getting better. I see that the swelling on the old lady's tongue has disappeared a lot."
Grandma laughed out loud, "Isn't that right? The old lady felt it herself, she was so happy."
Mrs. Jiang also smiled and nodded.
"Thanks to Dr. Chu!"
Chu Yue took Madam Jiang's hand and asked, "How is Madam Jiang's sleep lately?"
"I can sleep soundly for more than two hours at night, and the vertigo that frequently occurred before has not appeared again." Mrs. Jiang answered slowly.
The old grandma added on the side, "The old lady couldn't sleep for more than an hour at night. She was always tossing and turning, unable to fall asleep, and she always felt flustered and dizzy."
Chu Yue pursed her lips and smiled.
"It seems that the old lady has improved a lot. Next, I will arrange a second course of treatment for the old lady. After this course of treatment, the old lady can sleep soundly for at least three hours at night. The lump on the tongue is roughly Sixty percent can be removed, and the remaining hard lumps will gradually soften."
Because the improvement was obvious during this period, Mrs. Jiang firmly believed in Chu Yue's words. Now that she heard Chu Yue's words, she asked directly, "What should I do?"
Chu Yue smiled, her face full of relief.
"Old Madam, you don't need to do anything. You should eat, sleep, and relax every day. Leave the rest to me. As long as Old Madam believes in me, your illness will definitely be cured."
Mrs. Jiang nodded quickly.
"Okay, okay! I believe in Doctor Chu!"
Chu Yue helped Mrs. Jiang lie down, covered her with a blanket, and then went to the side room to write scripture prescriptions.
Imperial Physician Sun glanced at the scripture written by Chu Yue, stepped forward and asked, "Doctor Chu, in your opinion, how long does it take for Mrs. Jiang's illness to recover?"
"If everything goes well, the medicine can be stopped next month." Chu Yue replied quietly while writing.
Another doctor asked, “What happens if things don’t go well?”
"It's not going well..." Chu Yue paused and continued, "The condition may relapse after autumn. Once we get through winter, it will get better in spring next year. Then we can take a dose of strong medicine and it will be cured by summer. Stop taking the medication.”
"Is it okay to stop taking the medicine?" a doctor continued to ask.
Chu Yue nodded, "Yes."
"Is Dr. Chu so sure?"
Chu Yue raised her eyes and looked at the doctors in front of her, "Based on Mrs. Jiang's current recovery speed, if she is still not well next year, it only means that she doesn't believe in me."
If you don't believe her, you don't believe that your illness can be cured. Patients have no confidence in the doctor or themselves. Worrying about gains and losses is most likely to cause recurrence of the disease.
This is why she finally said that to Mrs. Jiang.
