The Dragon Clan's most beloved little princess transmigrated. As soon as she was born, her scumbag father looked at her once and declared his intention to divorce her mother. It turned out that...
Su Luo smiled faintly and remained silent.
She knew that getting the medicinal herbs wouldn't be easy, so she came all this way.
Before she even entered the gate, Wen Fanghui was already facing difficulties at every turn.
Wen Fanghui was a little annoyed. Su Luo didn't even say a polite word. Her bluntness made Wen Fanghui feel unprecedented pressure.
After taking a deep breath, she spoke directly: "Those two medicinal herbs are too precious. We had a hard time finding them. It is said that when a person dies, the debt is settled, and all grudges and grievances dissipate. Even if our Qiao family does not acknowledge you, there is nothing we can say. But our Qiao family is not the kind of heartless people. I can write you a check for 200,000."
Two hundred thousand is already an enormous sum of money.
The Qiao family has been generous enough.
Su Luo shook her head: "I don't want money. I heard that your young master is not feeling well. If you are willing to give me the medicinal herbs, I can help your young master to improve his health."
"Please wait a moment..."
Wen Fanghui was stunned. Su Luo actually knew this. It seemed that she had come prepared.
Two years ago, their son was diagnosed with heart disease, and the Qiao family tried to find out about Dai Ping'an everywhere, but unfortunately they couldn't find anything. He is currently taking Western medicine to recuperate, but if his health doesn't improve, their son's marriage will be in jeopardy, and the Xing family will not let their daughter live a life of widowhood.
Moreover, he had already undergone surgery once, and his recovery was not going well.
Wen Fanghui hurriedly went to make a phone call.
After listening, Mr. Qiao said, "Let Xiao Lei go home. If she really has the ability to treat Xiao Lei, then give her the medicine. If she doesn't have that ability, then give her 200,000 yuan. If she doesn't want the 200,000 yuan, then once she leaves the Qiao family, we'll call it even. Grandpa Dai has already passed away, and my mother has also passed away long ago. If she wants to cause trouble, then don't blame the Qiao family for being impolite to her."
After listening, Wen Fanghui agreed: "Okay, I'll do as you say. I'll call Xiaolei."
After Mr. Qiao hung up the phone, Wen Fanghui immediately called her son, Qiao Lei.
After telling Qiao Lei to come over to her home, Wen Fanghui returned to the main hall and asked the servants to serve Su Luo some snacks.
Su Luo did not move.
Wen Fanghui smiled politely and went to accompany Su Luo.
"Su Luo, I'll have to trouble you to wait a bit. My son will be here soon. If you can help him recover, then the Qiao family will gladly offer this medicine. If you can't, we can only repay this kindness with 200,000 yuan. The old man has already passed away, so no matter who you ask, the Qiao family's actions are justified."
Wen Fanghui didn't beat around the bush; Su Luo had already made her point out in the open.
Two hundred thousand. Even if it gets reported in the newspapers, the Qiao family will still have a legitimate reason.
"Okay, let's talk about it after I show it to your son."
Su Luo understood that there was truly no room for negotiation at this point.
The Qiao family is difficult to get along with; they're only concerned with appearances.
Past favors become meaningless to them once the person passes away.
Choosing to give a sum of money is to buy a good reputation, because if they really don't care, the circle of powerful people will look down on them.
Two hundred thousand is indeed a large sum of money.
Her senior colleague gave her this idea, which proves that she is confident in her medical skills.
Seeing Su Luo's calm demeanor, Wen Fanghui was somewhat curious about her.
"I heard you went to medical school. Are you adjusting well? What are your thoughts on Western medicine?"
Wen Fanghui asked with a smile.
Su Luo smiled politely: "Madam, this is my private matter."
No comment.
Wen Fanghui's smile faltered. She was the one who always embarrassed others. After the Qiao family rose to prominence, she was flattered wherever she went.
Su Luo wasn't from a powerful or influential family, so why was she so indifferent to her?
Regardless of whether Wen Fanghui is angry or not, Su Luo will not change her attitude.
A few years ago, she wouldn't have been able to be so carefree.
Now that she is free, it is thanks to the support of her family and friends. She will no longer bind herself to any worldly constraints, and she does whatever she wants to do.
Wen Fanghui couldn't find out anything she wanted to ask. She pouted, picked up the pastries on the plate and ate them. Then she smiled and said, "Su Luo, you eat. These are pastries made by a chef from abroad who makes them for the imperial court. You can't get them outside."
Wen Fanghui raised her hand, and the large diamond ring on her finger sparkled.
You poor wretch, what are you so arrogant about? Look at what I eat and use, you could never afford it in your entire life.
Wen Fanghui gave a forced smile, deliberately showing off. She really wanted to see Su Luo show a jealous expression, as if that would mean she had won.
Su Luo looked at Wen Fanghui and then said calmly, "Madam, I suggest you eat less sweets in the future. Your stomach isn't very good, and sweets can cause bloating, which is the root cause of your bad breath."
Su Luo's words made Wen Fanghui unable to eat another bite, and her face was extremely embarrassed.
Su Luo looked at her diamond ring and said, "The size of this ring is not right. One of the meridians in your middle finger is blocked, which makes you easily startled at night. Over time, you may lose all feeling in your hand. I also suggest that you take it off and have it resized to fit properly before wearing it again."
"Also, don't lean forward when sitting, as doing so for a long time can easily cause lumbar spine problems."
"By the way, your facial muscles twitch a little too quickly when you laugh; that could be a sign of an impending stroke..."
With each word Su Luo spoke, Wen Fanghui's smile faded, and the corners of her mouth twitched unnaturally.
But Su Luo had hit the nail on the head.
She does have bad breath, and she does tend to wake up easily at night. When Su Luo reminded her, she immediately realized that she had started waking up easily after wearing that big diamond ring.
She realized that Su Luo really had some skills.
She didn't even take her pulse; it was obvious even after she put on makeup.
Wen Fanghui took a deep breath, and her attitude changed completely: "Thank you for reminding me. What medicine do you think can help with my tone without affecting my appetite?"
She loves sweets and is very vain.
She has this minor ailment, and naturally she has seen a Western doctor and taken some medicine, but it sometimes gets better and sometimes it doesn't, which is very distressing for her.
Her own daughter is a Western medicine doctor, and she advised her to stop eating sweets.
But these are her hobbies, and she can't just give them up, so her condition fluctuates.
"Your problem isn't serious, let's talk about it later."
Su Luo smiled politely, but Wen Fanghui's expression changed very quickly, she could sense it.
She could see through Wen Fanghui's little problem and naturally had a solution. There are differences between different traditional Chinese medicines, and even the same medicine will have different effects depending on the dosage.
She thought that even if she couldn't start with Wen Fanghui's son, she could start with Wen Fanghui herself, but there was no rush.
"Okay, okay, have some tea. This flower tea is quite delicious. I'll have the housekeeper pack two packets for you when you get back."
Wen Fanghui said with a smile, while quietly taking off her ring.
