Wu Yi peeked at Yu Jiao, but saw that her eyes, which were covered by a veil, showed no emotion. This country girl never showed her emotions and had a calm temperament.

Yu Jiao said politely, "Thank you for your kindness, sir. However, my family is far away in the countryside of Qingzhou, and I really cannot stay in the capital for long. After some time, when I am done with the affairs in the capital, I will return to Qingzhou."

Wu Yi said with some regret, "If Doctor Yu changes her mind in the future, you can come to my Wu's house at any time."

Wu Yi was sincerely trying to recruit Yu Jiao. After all, everyone was bound to get sick. Even the current emperor, for the sake of good health and longevity, worshipped Taoism, practiced fasting and took a lot of elixirs.

In the past few years, as he entered middle age, he increasingly felt that his body was not able to bear the strain. If his family could employ a doctor with such outstanding medical skills, he would feel more at ease.

Madam Wu said, "Where is Doctor Yu staying in the capital? Can you tell me?" She looked at Shen Wan and said with an embarrassed smile, "It's not good to go to the Shen Mansion to disturb us every time. If we know where the doctor lives in the capital, next time there is a disease, we can directly ask someone to invite Doctor Yu to come."

Yu Jiao and Chen Wan looked at each other and were about to make up an excuse when they heard Chen Wan say, "Her family came to the capital for business, and Doctor Yu came with her family. Miss Yu's family didn't want her to be out in the open practicing medicine, so Doctor Yu kept it a secret from her family and lied that she was out to play with me. She also found an excuse to go out tonight."

Shen Guan's excuse was very good. Madam Wu understood it as soon as she heard it. After all, few people would be willing to let their daughters run around outside. Moreover, the two times that female doctor Yu came to see patients, she was accompanied by maids. If she could afford maids, her family might not be ordinary country people, but must have some assets.

"So, inviting Doctor Yu here twice really troubled Doctor Yu, and she also had to deal with the family." Madam Wu touched her hair, pulled out a gold hairpin from her bun, and said, "I didn't have time to prepare some thank-you gifts for Doctor Yu. This is my little token of my appreciation. Doctor Yu, please don't be polite."

Yu Jiao naturally could not accept the gold hairpin. If she sold it for money, there was no guarantee that someone would wear it in the future and it would be seen by Madam Wu. If she brought it back home, it would just gather dust in her dressing box.

"Mrs. Wu, you're welcome. I charge for my medical services, so it's my duty to help people cure their illnesses." Yu Jiao declined, "You don't need to accept this thank-you gift."

Madam Wu wanted to get closer to Yu Jiao, and even her own master wanted to recruit Yu Jiao to be the house's kept female doctor. If she could become good friends with Yu Jiao, then if anyone in the house had an emergency in the future, it would be because Yu Jiao was in Qingzhou, and because of their friendship, it would be easier to invite her from afar.

Yu Jiao didn't want to argue with Madam Wu, so she said, "If that's the case, I'll shamelessly ask Madam Wu for some medicinal herbs."

Madam Wu took back the hairpin after hearing this and said with a smile, "Okay, just tell me what herbs you need, and I will ask the servants to prepare them tomorrow."

Yu Jiao mentioned a few medicinal herbs that the clinic would not always have in stock. They were not very expensive, but ordinary doctors seldom used them when prescribing, so the clinic would have relatively small stocks of them.

Madam Wu hurriedly asked the maid to write down the names of the herbs. "Once these herbs are prepared, I will send someone to deliver them to the Shen Mansion. I will also trouble Miss Shen to pass them on to Female Doctor Yu."

"I have to see Miss Su He again in a few days and change the prescription. You can come and get it then." Yu Jiao said, "It's already late. Miss Shen's family and I are worried about her, so I'll take my leave now."

Madam Wu was about to give Yu Jiao the medical fee when Wu Yi, who was sitting on a chair beside her, coughed lightly and said shamelessly, "Can you please delay Female Doctor Yu for a while? I haven't been feeling well recently. Please help me check my pulse."

Yu Jiao asked Jianjia to take out the pulse pillow from the diagnosis box. She took out a square handkerchief from her sleeve, placed it on Master Wu's wrist, and then covered it with her fingers.

When Mrs. Wu saw these subtle details, she liked Yu Jiao even more. She had never done this when she took the pulse of her third brother's wife and Su He before. But when it came to her own master, this female doctor Yu was very polite.

After a moment, Yu Jiao retracted her finger. "Master Wu, do you often have a bitter mouth and dry throat, loss of appetite, fatigue, and poor spirits? And sometimes you have tinnitus?"

Wu Yi nodded repeatedly, "That's right." He has been working too hard in recent years, and his energy and spirit are not as good as before, and he always feels tired.

Mrs. Wu asked worriedly, "Is my master in good health?" Wu Yi had never told her that he was not feeling well. He was always busy with official duties and had many things to do.

"Lord Wu is not seriously ill, it's just that his spleen is weak and his liver fire is strong. I'll prescribe some medicine to help him take care of himself." Yu Jiao took out a pen and paper to write down the prescription, and then said, "Drinking wolfberry tea more often can protect your liver and eyes."

"It's good as long as it's nothing serious." Wu Yi felt relieved and said to Madam Wu, "Quickly get the medical fee for Miss Yu."

Madam Wu smiled and took out a roll of silver bills from her purse, "I carry them with me." She stuffed them all into Yu Jiao's hands. Yu Jiao took out five silver bills worth one hundred taels and returned the rest to Madam Wu.

Madam Wu asked politely, "Doctor Yu, are these enough?"

"Enough." Yu Jiao put the pulse pillow into the medical box. It was just gonorrhea, and she didn't have to pay for the medicine.

Yu Jiao and Shen Wan said goodbye again. Madam Wu saw them off to the gate of the courtyard and asked a servant to escort them back.

Madam Wu turned around and was about to go back to the courtyard when she saw Wu Yi coming over and asked, "Has the master visited Su He?"

Wu Yi shook his head. "It's fine as long as he's fine. Madam, you've worked hard all night. Come back with me and have a rest."

Mrs. Wu saw that Wu Yi really had no other thoughts about Su He, and was only particularly worried about her life because she was arranged by Prime Minister Shen. She couldn't help but smile, "Master is not feeling well, why didn't you tell me?"

"It's not serious. Telling you will only make you worry more." Wu Yi got on the carriage, turned around and stretched out his hand to pull Madam Wu. Madam Wu felt sweet in her heart. They rarely went out together like this. She often didn't know what Wu Yi was thinking. He would not tell a woman like her about the affairs of the court. Although she took the trouble to run around for Su He today and went to the Shen Mansion to find someone in person, she also had selfish motives.

After all, she was still worried about a young and beautiful woman like Su He being involved with her master.

But after experiencing this tonight, I feel much more at ease now.

"Doctor Yu is also from Qingzhou. She and Su He should be able to get along well." Madam Wu said as the servant drove the carriage outside. "Miss Su He always stays in the yard and doesn't go out. It's not good for her health. Doctor Yu is not from the capital. Master doesn't need to be so cautious. You can ask her to get to know Doctor Yu."
