Chapter 363: Closing
Chapter 363: Closing
Mrs. Wu glared at Wu Xue Ning. Although she was sad, she just lowered her head and said nothing.
Mrs. Wu got even angrier when she saw her like this: "What's the point of having such a pretty face? People still don't want you. Even if they push you hard, no one will want you. Then we can only find an old man who might want you."
Although Wu Xue Ning felt aggrieved in her heart, she could not and did not want to show it in front of Mrs. Wu. She had to make some plans for the future.
As a mother, she was simply trying to please the General's Mansion. She wasn't thinking about herself at all. She had to stand higher so that he would crawl at her feet in the future.
Mother Qin in the General's Mansion said, "Madam, don't be angry. There will definitely be many things like this in the capital in the future. As long as the General doesn't compromise, it will be fine."
Jin Yuyao said, "I'm angry because they are clearly women. Why do they have to act like this? Why do they have to offer themselves to be concubines? I really don't understand."
Mother Qin said, "Madam, Miss Wu is a concubine's daughter. Madam Wu, who was born to a concubine, will definitely not consider her happiness. She is also trying to please the general's mansion.
Besides, you are the only one in our General's Mansion, which is unique in the capital. This will arouse their jealousy, and many women will want to fight for their chance to enter the General's Mansion."
Jin Yuyao asked, "Are you willing to be my concubine?"
Mother Qin smiled and said, "Even if she becomes a concubine, she will be a concubine of the general's mansion."
Jin Yuyao didn't say anything. It seemed that there were no three wives and four concubines in the village before because people couldn't afford to support them. Otherwise, they would definitely have three wives and four concubines.
After lunch, Jin Yuyao just lay down and wanted to take a nap.
At this time, Mother Qin came and whispered, "Madam, are you asleep? Doctor Zhao is here."
Jin Yuyao opened her eyes and said, "Why is he here at this time?"
Mother Qin said, "Then Imperial Physician Zhao is only interested in medical skills. He must have come to ask Madam for advice."
Jin Yuyao stood up and went to the flower hall.
"Is there anything Doctor Zhao wants to bring you here today?"
Doctor Zhao turned and said, "Madam General, my nephew has opened a pharmacy. How about you come with me to take a look? He needs a doctor recently, but he can't find a suitable one. I wonder if you'd be interested?"
Jin Yuyao directly refused: "I have a lot of things to do recently, I don't have that much time."
Doctor Zhao continued, "Madam General, I think your medical skills are better than mine. How about I become your disciple?"
Doctor Zhao was about to kneel down and salute after he finished speaking, which frightened Jin Yuyao.
She quickly helped Doctor Zhao up and said, "Doctor Zhao, you are really embarrassing me. I may be better in some aspects, but you are the imperial physician after all. I am definitely not as good as you."
Doctor Zhao begged: "Either you come with me to see him, or I will take you as my teacher, or I won't leave."
Jin Yuyao looked at Doctor Zhao acting like a child and wanted to laugh. She had no choice but to compromise and said, "Okay, I'll go with you, but I'm just going to take a look."
Doctor Zhao's face was filled with smiles as he said, "Isn't that right? If I were younger, I would have accepted you as my disciple a long time ago. Unfortunately, there's no one in my family who's passionate about medicine. If there were, I would have them accept you as my disciple."
After saying that, he walked out.
Jin Yuyao looked at Mother Qin with some confusion.
Mother Qin said, "Dr. Zhao never had any children in his life. He has a younger brother who runs a pharmacy, and his sons are not interested in medicine. When he saw you, he probably thought of the things at home and the sadness of having no one to pass on his legacy."
Jin Yuyao nodded. This was the first time she knew that Doctor Zhao had no children.
She, Wenzhu and Mother Qin walked out of the house.
Bai Zhi went to Nishang Pavilion early this morning. Ever since Jin Yuyao said that, Bai Zhi would go there whenever she had time.
When they arrived at the gate of the mansion, Doctor Zhao was already waiting for them.
On the carriage,
None of the five people in the carriage spoke.
Jin Yuyao discovered that Doctor Zhao basically didn't talk much unless it was about medical skills.
She asked, "Doctor Zhao, where are we going?"
Doctor Zhao said, "I've already told the driver, it's not far away."
Then it fell into silence.
Perhaps Doctor Zhao also felt the awkward atmosphere in the carriage. He took out the book given by Jin Yuyao and started reading.
In less than a quarter of an hour, the carriage stopped.
Doctor Zhao was the first to get off the carriage.
Then Mother Qin and Wenzhu got off the carriage.
Jin Yuyao got off the carriage with the help of Wenzhu.
She saw a small pharmacy with Deshantang written on it.
Doctor Zhao said, "Come in quickly."
After Jin Yuyao followed Doctor Zhao in.
I saw a man who looked very similar to Doctor Zhao in the lobby, dispensing medicine.
"Jinzhi"
The man raised his head and said, "Brother, why are you here?"
Doctor Zhao said, "I'll bring the general's wife to see him."
Zhao Jinzhi was immediately surprised and asked, "Brother, is this the general's wife? Please come in."
After saying that, he made a gesture of invitation.
They went into a side room.
Zhao Jinzhi said, "I've heard my brother mention Madam a long time ago. I never thought that Madam would be so skilled in medicine at such a young age."
Jin Yuyao explained, "Doctor Zhao was exaggerating."
Zhao Jinzhi said, "Madam, that's not the case. Big Brother rarely praises people, which means he really admires you."
Doctor Zhao asked, "How is the second son doing in the clinic lately?"
Zhao Jinzhi's face was no longer full of joy as he said, "I can't even make enough money to pay the rent lately. The main reason is that there are no doctors working in the clinic. I think if there is no one left, I'll just have to close it down."
Jin Yuyao understood that Doctor Zhao wanted her to see patients here this time.
Doctor Zhao said, "Madam General, I know that with your medical skills, I'm afraid you wouldn't look down on such a small place, but do you know anyone who can come here to see patients?
As long as your medical skills are passable, that's all that matters. I know you're the general's wife now and you must have a lot to do."
Jin Yuyao looked at Doctor Zhao and saw that he wanted her to agree but was in a dilemma.
But he really had no other choice: "I'm afraid that Doctor Zhao has disappointed you. I really don't know anyone who is skilled in medicine. You know I just arrived in the capital."
Doctor Zhao sighed and said, "Forget it. Since there is no such thing, we can't force it."
At this time, a palace maid came in panting, grabbed Doctor Zhao and ran away.
Doctor Zhao asked anxiously, "Who are you? Can you please just talk about what you want to say instead of wasting time?"
The palace maid whispered a few words in Doctor Zhao's ear. Doctor Zhao was shocked and followed her without saying a word.
