The man appeared to be around forty years old.

The boy looked exhausted, pale and thin, and appeared to be about fourteen or fifteen years old.

After some questioning, it was learned that the boy was already sixteen years old.

The boy has been learning medicine from his father for several years.

There were more than ten patients in the clinic at that time, and Jiang Shuyue asked the middle-aged man to examine the patients and write prescriptions.

In less than half an hour, the man's diagnosis was accurate, and the prescription he wrote was also standard.

Jiang Shuyue immediately decided to keep the family of three.

The man's surname is Xu, the woman's surname is Zheng, and the boy's given name is Dong.

Aunt Su helped settle the family of three into the front annex.

After washing up, the three of them looked refreshed.

Jiang Shuyue asked Zheng to help Aunt Su with cooking and cleaning the yard.

"Girl, this is the contract I wrote for your servitude."

After lunch, as Jiang Shuyue entered the clinic, Doctor Xu handed her three indentures.

Jiang Shuyue did not reach out to take it.

The indenture still needs to be registered with the government, so my time in Laiyang City might not be long.

She shook her head and said, "Uncle Xu, there's no need for a contract of indenture. Xu Dong is still young. If one day he wants to pursue a career in government, wouldn't that ruin his future?"

In Wanling Kingdom, slaves were not allowed to participate in the imperial examinations.

If the Xu family hadn't been desperate and happened to see the notice posted at the clinic, they could have made a living as itinerant doctors with his medical skills.

Xu Bo was moved to tears. He bowed and said, "Thank you, young lady. Even if you don't accept this contract of servitude, my family will still regard you as our master."

At Linjiang Academy, the headmaster had someone take Su Jin and Su Nan to settle in, while he and Su Huai'ren went to the study.

"Headmaster...Headmaster, are you telling the truth?"

The headmaster's words left Su Huai-ren in disbelief.
