The nanny felt that he was the imperial physician in the palace, so it would be too rude not to reply. She could only say, "I don't know. The eldest lady asked me to go get the Ganoderma Lucidum. We can't delay any longer."
After saying this, the nanny walked quickly towards the warehouse.
"Use Lingzhi to replenish qi and blood?" Wang Min narrowed his eyes and guessed, "Could it be that Madam Wu San is having a hemorrhage?"
He couldn't help but sneer. If Madam Wu San died of hemorrhage, it would be enough for that little girl to suffer.
When the Ganoderma lucidum was delivered, Yu Jiao had already finished the finishing work. She disinfected all the instruments, packed them up and put them into the medical box. Several wild Ganoderma lucidum were less than ten years old, which was just right for Mrs. Wu San to take now so that she would not be too weak to be nourished.
Yu Jiao tore the Ganoderma lucidum into small pieces and fed them into Mrs. Wu San's mouth. "You are now suffering from a deficiency of both Qi and blood. Chewing this Ganoderma lucidum and eating it can relieve your Qi deficiency and fatigue."
Mrs. Wu San looked pale and weak. She slowly chewed the Ganoderma lucidum and swallowed it.
After feeding a Ganoderma lucidum, Yu Jiao said to the third wife, "If you feel tired and weak, you can take a nap." She wrote another prescription and a medicated meal and went to the outer room.
When Mrs. Wu saw Yu Jiao coming out, she quickly stood up and asked anxiously, "Doctor Yu, is my cousin okay?"
"Mrs. Wu San is fine, and the dead fetus has been removed." Yu Jiao handed the prescription to Mrs. Wu Da, "Take two doses a day for ten consecutive days. I also wrote a recipe for medicinal food to replenish the Third Madam's qi and blood."
Madam Wu hurriedly asked the nanny beside her to take it. Yu Jiao took out a few bottles and jars from the medical box. "This is Shiqing powder and Shengji ointment. The wound on Madam San's abdomen was sutured. The next day, you need to remove the gauze, wipe it with licorice water, apply Shengji ointment, sprinkle Shiqing powder on it, and then wrap it with gauze. Don't let the wound get wet."
Mrs. Wu nodded repeatedly, "Can I go in and see my cousin?"
Yu Jiao nodded, "The servants who have to take care of the Third Madam on weekdays should wear clothes washed with licorice water. The people who help the Third Madam change her medicine should also wash their hands with licorice water."
Mrs. Wu wrote down Yu Jiao's medical instructions one by one, and then couldn't wait to go into the side room.
Mrs. Wu San was not asleep. She whispered a few words to Mrs. Wu Da. Mrs. Wu Da saw that she looked pale and very weak, so she asked her to lie down and rest, and said nothing more.
After instructing the nanny beside her to carry the dead baby out for burial, Madam Wu returned to the main hall. She looked at Yu Jiao with eyes full of gratitude. Her brows relaxed a lot, and the previous gloomy look was swept away.
"Doctor Yu, can we say that my third brother's wife has survived the gates of hell?" Mrs. Wu said.
Yu Jiao nodded, "As long as there is nothing wrong with the wound, Madam Wu San will be fine."
Madam Wu couldn't help but feel happy, and said with a smile, "How much is the consultation fee? I'll ask the servant to get it for the female doctor."
Yu Jiao took a sip of tea and asked Li Jing how much money he spent on the medicine. She said, "The last time I performed a caesarean section on Miss Wang, I charged her one thousand taels. The price of medicine in Beijing is a bit higher than in Qingzhou, so I'll charge you one thousand one hundred taels."
Back then in Qingzhou, Chen Guan took the initiative to give 1,000 taels of medical fees, and Yu Jiao did not charge that much. Now in the capital, the Wu family is not an ordinary family. After taking 1,000 taels from Chen Guan, the medical fee charged by the Wu family naturally cannot be less than that charged by Chen Guan.
What's more, there is Wang Min in the middle, and I don't know what his plan is.
Madam Wu directly asked her maid to go to the storehouse to get the silver notes. Although one thousand taels was not a small amount for a family like theirs, it depended on how it was used. It only cost more than one thousand taels to save her cousin's life. In Madam Wu's opinion, it was not too much at all, on the contrary, it was worth it.
She was even prepared to spend more than five thousand taels, after all, it was a very dangerous way to save lives by caesarean section.
Soon, the maid returned with the banknotes. Madam Wu handed them to Yu Jiao and said to her with a smile, "Doctor Yu, these two hundred taels are a token of my appreciation. If you live in the capital permanently in the future, I will have to trouble you if someone in your family is sick."
Yu Jiao counted the banknotes and Madam Wu gave her 1,300 taels. After hearing her words, Yu Jiao did not refuse and accepted the banknotes.
"When changing the dressing on Third Madam's wound, you must be careful. The first lady who is serving her must also be careful." Yu Jiao said, "I don't need to explain much about the affairs of the inner house. The first lady knows it well. Third Madam is weak now. If she is not careful, someone with ulterior motives will take advantage of the opportunity to break in. It will be fatal. By then, even I will be unable to save her."
Madam Wu knew what Yu Jiao was reminding her of. Thinking of the concubines of the Third Master, they were probably waiting for her cousin to pass away so that they could take the main seat. The smile on her face faded. "Thank you, Doctor Yu, for your advice. I will have people guard my cousin's yard tightly and will never let anyone take advantage of the opportunity to cause chaos or use despicable means."
Yu Jiao stood up and said goodbye, "If the Third Madam is not feeling well, the First Madam can send someone to the Shen Mansion to inform Shen Wan."
Shen Wan also stood up and said, "Madam, I'm leaving too."
Madam Wu hurriedly tried to persuade them to stay, "Doctor Yu has been busy for so long, and Miss Shen has also made the trip, why don't you stay in the mansion and have dinner before leaving?"
Yu Jiao and Chen Guan shook their heads together and refused.
Madam Wu said again, "Then I will see you off."
Walking out of the courtyard, Wang Min stood up impatiently when he saw them, pretending to be calm, and asked Madam Wu, "How is the Third Madam? Do you want me to go in and check her pulse?"
