Yu Ruhai looked into the courtyard and saw Zhang Zhuangtou and Qi Ge'er's family. He smiled and said, "She is my fifth brother's wife. She has some talent in learning medicine and diagnosing. I taught her some things."
Upon hearing this, the villagers praised him again: "Doctor Yu, you are really kind-hearted. You even generously taught your medical skills to your granddaughter-in-law."
Yu Ruhai smiled, but in his heart he was afraid that Yu Jiao might let the cat out of the bag, so he quickly stood up and said, "The man in the hospital is Zhang Zhuangtou from a nearby village. He brought his son to see me for epilepsy some time ago. He should come for a follow-up visit today. I'll go take a look."
After Yu Ruhai left the house, neighbor Wang whispered to a woman beside her, "I think the old man from the Yu family is good at medicine. He used to treat headaches and fevers, but now he treats serious illnesses."
Another woman also whispered, "It's quite strange. Maybe the Yu family's ancestors really have some superb medical skills passed down. Isn't it said that someone in the Yu family was a royal physician in the palace?"
Seeing Yu Zhou looking over, Wang and the woman quickly stopped talking and changed the subject: "Sister Zhou, is your Jinyan going to take the imperial examination in the next autumn?"
Yu Zhou smiled and said, "Not only should you be careful with your words, but you should also be careful with your writing."
"Oh, I really envy you. Doctor Yu in your family is very capable, and all his descendants are scholars!" Wang said with a smile.
There was a lot of laughter in the house. Yu Ruhai came into the courtyard and said with a friendly smile, "Are you bringing Brother Qi for a follow-up visit?"
Zhang Zhuangtou smiled and said, "My brother Qi is getting better and better. This is my wife Qin, who came here specially to thank Miss Meng."
Hearing this, Yu Ruhai glanced into the room and saw that everyone was laughing and talking. They probably didn't hear the voices in the yard. He saw Yu Jiao withdraw her pulse-checking hand and asked, "How is it? Is Qi Ge'er's epilepsy healed?"
Upon hearing this, Zhang Zhuangtou and his wife looked at Yu Jiao nervously.
Yu Jiao touched Qi Ge'er's head and said with a smile, "The wind and phlegm in his body have disappeared. If you continue to use moxa fumigation for another half month, Qi Ge'er's epilepsy will not occur again. However, you still need to pay more attention to your health and eat less cold foods."
Zhang Zhuangtou and his wife heaved a sigh of relief when they heard this. Zhang Qinshi was so happy that she took Yu Jiao's hand and said happily, "Thank you so much, Miss Meng. I don't know how to thank you. Our Qi Ge'er's illness has been weighing on my mind for many years. Fortunately, I met you..."
Yu Jiao also laughed. It was a great satisfaction to be thanked by a patient. She said, "You don't have to be like this. Zhang Zhuangtou has already paid enough for the consultation. It's my duty to cure Qi Ge'er's illness."
Zhang Zhuangtou said with great emotion, "There are very few people in this world who are as skilled in medicine as Miss Meng and who are humble and self-reflective. It is a blessing for patients to have a doctor like Miss Meng!"
Yu Ruhai was left out, his smile faded a lot. He was afraid that the noise made by Zhang Zhuangtou and his wife would be heard by the villagers, so he lowered his voice and said, "It is very difficult for women to practice medicine in this world. Rumors from outside can ruin a person. You two should be careful with your words, there are outsiders in the room."
Zhang Zhuangtou remembered Yu Ruhai's previous instructions, and also knew that people had many opinions about women. He was afraid that Yu Jiao would be harmed, so he quickly kept silent and pulled Zhang Qin's sleeve, "Say less, don't damage Miss Meng's reputation."
Zhang Qin hurriedly suppressed her excitement, but her hand was still tightly holding Yu Jiao, expressing the gratitude in her heart.
Yu Jiao looked at Yu Ruhai, curled her lips and smiled playfully, without exposing his vanity.
