The people outside heard the baby crying and seemed to know what was going on, except for Wang Dayong, who slumped down at the foot of the pillar.
Grandma Wang pointed at the midwife and said, "Quick, go and see if it's my grandson?"
Without Wang Dayong's instructions, the midwives dared not enter the room, as it was a scene they had never seen before, and they were afraid.
"Where's the midwife? It's a boy, quickly get the baby ready."
When Du Xiuyuan took the baby out and handed it to the midwife, Wang Dayong finally came to his senses. He grabbed Du Xiuyuan's sleeve and asked in a panicked voice, "Dr. Du, my wife, how is my wife?"
Du Xiuyuan was in a hurry to go back and see Su Luo. Su Luo's medical skills were unparalleled, a medical method he had never seen before. No doctor would want to miss such a mysterious medical skill.
"I'm still alive, so let me go first."
Du Xiuyuan slapped Wang Dayong's hand away.
When he came in, he saw that Su Luo was already stitching up, and Du Xiuyuan immediately felt that he had missed some important steps.
Let's take Zhang's pulse first. Du Xiuyuan pressed his fingers against Zhang's pulse, but his eyes remained fixed on Su Luo's suturing technique.
Can a person be treated like this? Du Xiuyuan dared not think about it. Most importantly, Zhang was still alive, and the pulse in his hand could not deceive him.
He really knew far too little. Su Luo was no ordinary person. He had underestimated her before and even thought he was doing her a favor. With her abilities, she would be highly regarded wherever she went.
Du Xiuyuan felt a mix of emotions, with shame being the most overwhelming feeling.
Su Luo finished everything, checking the scalpel, scissors, tweezers, and suture needles until they were all in good working order before she felt at ease.
I put all of these back into my sleeve, wrapped the anesthetic needle in a cloth, and disposed of it later.
Zhang Shi is still unconscious. The most important person here is Du Xiuyuan. Su Luo pulled up a chair and sat down in front of Du Xiuyuan, and said in a deep voice.
"Dr. Du, I was so anxious to save lives that I used some things left to me by my master, things rarely seen in the world. Could you..."
"I understand..."
Before Su Luo could say anything, Du Xiuyuan stood up, his eyes and heart filled with respect for her.
“The items that Madam Su just used are all life-saving objects, but they are rarely seen by the world and will surely cause panic. I understand. Such divine objects, I wonder which deity made them. Madam Su, could you tell me who my master is?”
Su Luo: "My master once warned his disciple not to reveal his name to the world. I can only tell Doctor Du that my master is a wandering immortal."
Du Xiuyuan was a little disappointed, but it was normal for a master like Su Luo to not want others to know about him; all great people prefer peace and quiet.
"Dr. Du, I hope you can keep the medical supplies from me a secret. Zhang's surgery was also thanks to you."
"How can this be? I will not be rewarded without merit."
Du Xiuyuan would never take possession of anything he didn't earn through his own abilities; that was his principle.
Su Luo trusted Du Xiuyuan's character, and seeing that she couldn't persuade him, she gave up, as long as he kept what he had just seen to himself.
There's nothing shameful about it, it's just a bit troublesome.
"Dr. Du, you are a good person."
After saying this, Su Luo went out and called Wang Dayong over. She explained the follow-up matters for the woman who had undergone a cesarean section, as well as the things to pay attention to during her postpartum period.
Wang Dayong expressed his deepest gratitude to Su Luo and Du Xiuyuan, saying, "Madam Su, you said you came to see me about something. Is it something important?"
Seeing that his wife and children had survived, Wang Dayong finally calmed down, realizing that Su Luo and the village chief had come to see him for something.
“Brother Wang, the village chief and I heard that you wanted to sell your old house in Changping Village, so we came to ask you about it. We didn’t expect that you had something to do at home today. I’ll come back to talk to you another day.”
Seeing Wang Dayong's state, Su Luo realized that they couldn't talk business anymore, so she suggested they reschedule for another day.
“Madam Su is a benefactor of my Wang family, and I should have treated her well. However, things are very chaotic today. I am extremely grateful that Madam Su can understand me.”
After Su Luo and the village chief said goodbye to Wang Dayong, they came out and said, "Village chief, I'm sorry to have made you come all this way for nothing."
Village chief: "Sigh! It happened suddenly, it's alright."
Du Xiuyuan followed behind Su Luo and the others, acting strangely, and no one knew what he was thinking.
However, once outside the Wang family's gate, Su Luo saw someone she shouldn't have seen there, hiding away, which made her feel very uncomfortable.
"Come out, I see you."
Ah Xu emerged from the alley, holding his sword in one hand, and stood in front of Su Luo.
"Ah Xu, why are you here? Did Nangong Qing send you to follow me?"
Aside from that, Su Luo couldn't think of why Ah Xu would be here, and what she hated most was being followed.
"No, no, my young master isn't that bored," Ah Xu quickly defended Nangong Qing.
If it weren't for the fact that the Wang family is having a baby these next few days, he wouldn't be here guarding this place. The Imperial Advisor said that a lucky star has descended, and he and his son have seen every newborn child in Yongle County.
They would pay extra attention to anyone born with any unusual signs, hoping to find the lucky star mentioned by the Grand Preceptor as soon as possible. If it weren't for the lucky star and the people of Nanning, he, a dignified man, would not have come to guard the corner.
But of course, these matters concerning the fate of the nation could not be told to Su Luo.
"If you're not here to follow me, then what are you doing here?"
Ah Xu glanced at Su Luo, then saw Du Xiuyuan following behind them, and immediately pointed at Du Xiuyuan and said, "I...I...I'm here to see Doctor Du. My young master is sick."
Nangong Qing: Thank you, you're the one who's sick.
"Dr. Du, come on, come on... My young master is looking for you." Before Du Xiuyuan could say anything, Axu forcibly dragged Du Xiuyuan away.
As the person was being led away, Du Xiuyuan didn't forget to say to Su Luo, "Madam Su, if you have any medicinal herbs, you must bring them to Ji'an Hall to sell. When I have time, I will definitely visit you."
Su Luo: "..."
Back in Changping Village, after telling Zhao Ruyun that the meeting hadn't gone through, Su Luo ate lunch and then began making the spice packets.
Take out all the spices, measure them out, and then grind them.
Zhao Ruyun didn't know how to do these things, so she could only wrap up what Su Luo had prepared. Yan Chuan and Yi Huan also went to walk the dog. In the maple forest by the kiln, cicadas chirped and a gentle breeze blew, making it a perfect time of summer.
"Luo Luo, do you think this packet of braising spices can sell for three taels of silver?"
While wrapping the ingredients, Zhao Ruyun asked Su Luo in disbelief, "Is something this big as a fist really worth so much?" She felt like she was dreaming.
"Really, you'll see once you get the silver."
