Although Sun Chengen is usually nitpicky, he is reliable in his dealings with others.
This can be seen from the fact that he only took one day to send Xu Zhen, the deputy director of the Salt and Iron Bureau, and his wife to the courtyard in Beixian where they were settled.
According to Magistrate Deng's calculations, it would take at least a day and a half.
Although there was no clue on Sun Chengen, A Yuan was panting and said that several horses had collapsed after they got ashore.
Ruan Meng thanked Sun Chengen. Although he didn't seem to mind, Ruan Meng knew that he wanted to give her more time to treat her.
If it cannot be treated, there is still time to think of other solutions.
Madam Xu Zhen was so thin that her bones were visible.
But Xu Zhen noticed that the person who would be treating his wife was such a young girl...
His face immediately darkened. If he hadn't revealed himself later as the young master of the renowned Sun family, he might not have agreed so hastily.
Even though Sun Chengen had introduced him to the doctor who was in charge of his treatment along the way, the doctor was now also treating Sun Mu'en...
But seeing with his own eyes that the doctor was so young and a woman, Xu Zhen's hesitation intensified.
Although the lady's health is deteriorating, she has been on IV drips for so many years; what if she encounters an unreliable quack doctor...?
He was quite certain that he could not bear the thought of Lady Accelerating's death.
The fact that this woman cured Miss Sun's illness may not be without the merits of predecessors; perhaps this was simply a coincidence...
Ruan Meng glanced at him but remained silent. The third brother was somewhat unconvinced; the other's disdain for his sister was written all over his face.
Even though the second brother couldn't hold him back, he knew that he couldn't act rashly at this moment. The county magistrate and the village chief were helpless, and this man was their greatest hope right now.
They need to consider their eldest brother.
The second brother was constantly watching over his younger sister and younger brother's condition. When he saw the third brother clenching his fists and remaining calm, he felt a pang of sadness, but also a sense of relief.
The third child has grown up and learned to be patient...
The person lying on the recliner slowly opened their eyes, saw Ruan Meng, and gave a weak smile.
That smile melted Xu Zhen's face, making it appear as if ice and snow had melted away.
Ruan Meng crouched down and asked the patient on the recliner, "May I examine you?"
The woman nodded slowly. Although she was thin, she had excellent bone structure and bright eyes.
It is evident that, despite suffering from illness, the child was well protected.
Ruan Meng didn't look at Xu Zhen, but gestured to her second brother, third brother, and Sun Chengen behind her. The group then went out and waited in the outer room.
Inside the room, only Ruan Meng and Xu Zhen remained.
Ruan Meng untied the blanket, observed the woman's breathing, turbid air, facial features, and limbs, examined her limbs, took her pulse, and then inquired about the woman's condition.
Ruan Meng's series of actions dispelled Xu Zhen's considerable doubts.
Having been ill for a long time, Xu Zhen has become an expert. He can judge a doctor's skill level after asking only three questions.
Although Ruan Meng was young and a woman, she had already impressed Xu Zhen with just a few questions.
"Ask me! It's hard for you to speak, Madam."
Xu Zhen's voice was calm, and his attitude changed to cooperative.
Ruan Meng inquired about the symptoms before and after, as well as the subsequent treatment plan. Xu Zhen took out a stack of prescriptions from the box, and Ruan Meng examined them one by one...
"Young lady... Doctor, is there any way to cure my wife?"
Ruan Meng looked at it carefully and slowly. After about 15 minutes, Xu Zhen finally couldn't help but ask, revealing his immense anxiety.
When Ruan Meng first met the other party, based on Magistrate Deng's evaluation and their close interaction, she did not think he was a cunning or hypocritical person, so she spoke truthfully:
"To avoid disappointing you and your wife, I should be cautious in the future and try my best to avoid taking responsibility and causing future trouble if I offend you..."
"This may be why many doctors are hesitant to take drastic measures."
Xu Zhen sensed something amiss and his attitude changed to respectful:
"Please advise, doctor!"
