Chapter 77 My husband is in good health
Yan Er was an impatient person. As soon as the kitten was one month old, he couldn't wait to send it to Huichun Hall.
Lu Wanning had just returned from giving Maomao an acupuncture treatment. After these few days of acupuncture, Maomao's breathing had obviously become smoother, and he was able to get out of bed and walk in the yard.
I'll have another acupuncture tomorrow, and with the help of medication, I'll be almost fully recovered.
Maomao's father originally went to draw the lot with only a glimmer of hope, but now, seeing his daughter walking in the yard, he wanted to kneel down and thank Lu Wanning.
They also promoted it a lot outside. Whenever they met someone selling vegetables on the street, they would tell him about Huichuntang's free clinic and how it helped his daughter treat her illness.
After a while, the time for the second free clinic has not yet arrived, but the number of people waiting has increased several times compared to the first time.
The reputation of Lu Wanning, the disciple of the miracle doctor, finally caused a small stir in the capital.
When chatting in the circle of powerful people, they would also mention Doctor Lu from Huichun Hall. He seemed to be the apprentice of the former Doctor Luo Shen, and his medical skills were superb and very good.
Yan Er seemed to have something else to do today. After bringing the kitten over, he left in a hurry without staying.
But just as he left, Madam Yan came over from the other side looking a little uncomfortable.
Lu Wanning happened to come out to discuss the next free clinic with Shopkeeper Wu. Seeing her, she was startled and asked, "Mrs. Yan?"
Zhen Wan'er smiled at her uncomfortably, "Doctor Lu, do you have time now?"
Seeing her expression, Lu Wanning had already made some guesses in her mind and nodded, "Yes, Madam, come with me."
She brought Zhen Wan'er to the clinic and asked, "Young Madam, are you feeling unwell?"
It was more or less embarrassing for a woman to talk about things in her boudoir. Zhen Wan'er exchanged a glance with the worried maid beside her before she spoke.
"I'm not feeling unwell, but my husband and I have been married for many years, and there's still no movement in my belly. I've consulted many doctors before, and some said that I have a cold constitution and it would be difficult for me to conceive, while others said that there's nothing wrong with my body and that I'm just not destined to have a child yet."
As she spoke, her eyes turned red. "My husband never said anything, but I'm worried. I'm always envious of other people's children. Now that Shu'er has a daughter, she's even more adorable. I feel even sadder when I see her every day."
She has a good relationship with her husband, and her mother-in-law treats her like her own daughter.
Even though she hadn't been pregnant for all these years, no one had ever mentioned asking her husband to take a concubine.
There was even one time when she felt that she had no hope of having children, so she mentioned to her husband that he should take a concubine and have a child. Her husband quarreled with her for several days.
After that, she never mentioned it again.
But not having children is always a concern for Zhen Wan'er.
Lu Wanning didn't dare comment on the doctor's diagnosis. She simply comforted Zhen Wan'er, "Let me check the young lady's pulse first. Speaking of which, the matter of having children is indeed related to fate. If the young lady's health is fine and she can keep a calm mind, perhaps fate will naturally come her way."
Although such words are comforting, after hearing them so many times, I no longer have any hope.
Zhen Wan'er was very nervous when taking her pulse.
For a moment, she didn't know whether she wanted Lu Wanning to say that there was nothing wrong with her body and it was just a matter of fate, or whether she wanted her to diagnose some problem for her so that she could know why she hadn't been able to have children all these years.
After a long moment, Lu Wanning withdrew her fingertips and pursed her lips gently. "There's really nothing wrong with the young lady's health. As for the coldness, it doesn't mean she's infertile."
Zhen Wan'er's shoulders suddenly slumped, and she couldn't tell whether she was relieved or disappointed.
She thanked him awkwardly, but then Lu Wanning spoke again, "But..."
Zhen Wan'er was very anxious, "But what?"
"Has a doctor ever diagnosed Master Yan before?"
"This..." Zhen Wan'er shook her head, her cheeks slightly red. "Not really. My husband is in good health, so it must not be his problem."
"The issue of childbearing is a matter between husband and wife. It's impossible to determine who is responsible based on appearance alone. Young Madam and Master Yan have been married for many years, but they don't have any children. If possible, Madam, please bring Master Yan here to have his pulse taken."
It's not surprising that no doctor mentioned before that it might be Young Master Yan's problem. After all, most people think that having children is the woman's problem.
In addition, there is no other woman around Master Yan, making it even more difficult to speculate.
Men all want to save face. Some of them have bad tempers and will immediately fly into a rage when they hear their abilities being questioned.
So much so that unless they are sure, few doctors will bring up the issue with men.
Zhen Wan'er felt that what Lu Wanning said made sense, so she quickly nodded, "Then I will bring my husband here tomorrow."
Lu Wanning nodded, "Okay."
She put the two cats that Yan Er sent in a bamboo basket, but the little guys were too naughty. When she sent Zhen Wan'er out, the two little guys crawled out at some point and ran around in the aisle.
Zhen Wan'er's eyes lit up. Isn't this the kitten from the mansion?
No wonder I saw Yan Er going to the cat's nest every day these days. He went there frequently a few days ago and was even scratched on the arm by the mother cat who was protecting her cubs.
It seems that he went to the cat's nest to pick out some good-looking kittens these days.
Zhen Wan'er's originally depressed mood instantly brightened, and a smile filled her eyes. "This kitten looks so familiar."
Lu Wanning was a little embarrassed. "The other day I saw a lifelike kitten embroidered on the second young master's handkerchief. The second young master said it was a cat he kept at home. Because his sister-in-law loved cats and was an excellent embroiderer, she embroidered a cat on the handkerchief. Everyone in the family has one."
"Seeing that I liked it, I remembered that my cat had just given birth to kittens, so I sent me two when they were one month old."
Zhen Wan'er smiled brightly, "No wonder, I was wondering how come two of the cats were missing today, just one month old? Turns out they were sent to Doctor Lu."
"Doctor Lu likes cats. How about I embroider a cat picture for him later?"
She pointed at the two meowing kittens and said, "The other two chubby cats in the mansion love to play with a ball. If they put two bells in it, they can play with it for a long time. If Doctor Lu is free, you can come to the mansion and I will take him to see the other cats."
Zhen Wan'er's whole body lit up when she mentioned cats.
Lu Wanning nodded in agreement, asked Hu Yan to catch the two kittens again, and then sent Zhen Wan'er to the door of the clinic.
As soon as she reached the door, she saw Chen Wenjian, whom she hadn't seen for some time, standing in front of Huichun Hall, looking at her with complicated eyes.
