Chapter 150 Doctor Chu

"It's alright, let the old lady rest for a bit. I'll take her pulse and adjust the prescription in a little while."

"Thank you, doctor."

Jiang Qi whispered a few words of comfort to her mother. Jiang's mother knew that her daughter was healthy and didn't dwell on the past. Otherwise, it would be Qi Qi who would be sad.

After a while, Jiang's mother had Doctor Chu take her pulse and rewrite the prescription, saying that the afternoon acupuncture sessions could be stopped from now on. However, she would continue to receive the morning acupuncture and medicinal meals.

Jiang Qi thanked the doctor and took her mother to eat the medicinal meal, passing by the two women who entered the room.

"Mother, is that Jiang Qi?"

"who?"

"She's the second daughter-in-law of the Fan family next door, the one who got divorced."

The middle-aged woman glanced back but couldn't see her face clearly.

"I didn't notice, did I? The second daughter-in-law of the Fan family isn't this pretty."

"That's right, she's gained a little weight, and her demeanor is different, but her appearance hasn't changed."

The conversation between the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law also reached Dr. Chu's ears.

"Who needs to see a doctor?"

"My wife has been having stomach aches for over a year now."

The middle-aged woman quickly replied to the doctor, pulled her daughter-in-law to sit down, and let the doctor take her pulse.

It's not a big problem. Doctor Chu prescribed a formula and told them to go see a female physician for acupuncture for seven days, followed by herbal decoctions, and then they would be fine.

The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law went for acupuncture, and kept turning back to see how Jiang Qi was doing.

Dr. Chu had an idea in mind: should he ask a matchmaker about divorce?

His parents had passed away early, and he had no other relatives. His master and mistress were in the prefectural city, so he decided to inquire about their situation first before making any further plans.

Jiang Qi had no idea that she had already caught the attention of Doctor Chu and was accompanying her mother home by car.
