After passing through a wooden corridor and an arched door, Mrs. Zhang brought Yu Jiao and others to the door of a room in the backyard.
The maid waiting outside the door saw Madam Zhang coming and said to the inside, "Miss, the Madam is here."
There was no response from inside the house.
Madam Zhang had no choice but to go forward and knock on the door, and said softly, "Yue'er, the female doctor mother invited is here. Open the door and let her take a look at you."
A shy and annoyed voice of a woman came from inside the house, "Mom, let her go! I don't want anyone to see me!"
Madam Zhang sighed upon hearing this and advised earnestly, "Yue'er, open the door quickly. She is a female doctor and is younger than you. You don't need to be embarrassed at all."
Seeing that there was still no movement in the house, Madam Zhang changed her tone, "You and Chen Yu will get married in the autumn, so why delay your illness any longer? Yue'er, if you don't listen to me, I'll have someone knock on the door!"
When Miss Zhang heard Chen Yu's name, she actually started crying quietly in the house.
When Mrs. Zhang heard her daughter crying, she was anxious and knocked on the door a few times, "Yue'er, be obedient and open the door quickly. With your mother here, your illness will definitely be cured."
After waiting for a long time, the sobbing sound in the room gradually subsided, and the door creaked and was pushed open from the inside. Miss Zhang stood in the room with red and swollen eyes, a haggard face, and a delicate figure.
When Mrs. Zhang saw it, she was heartbroken. She walked into the house, hugged her daughter, and coaxed her for a long time, treating her like the apple of her eye.
After Miss Zhang calmed down and lay down on the bed, Mrs. Zhang let Yu Jiao enter the room alone, and then ordered all the maids to wait outside and close the door.
Yu Fuling was locked outside the door and had to wait with the maid outside.
"Miss Meng, you can see Yue'er now." Mrs. Zhang said to Yu Jiao in the room.
Yu Jiao came to the bedside, took out the pulse pillow and placed it beside the bed, and said in a steady and gentle voice to the curtains, "I will take Miss Zhang's pulse."
Zhang Xiu Yue, who was lying on the bed, glanced at Yu Jiao through the curtain. Seeing that she was indeed very young and not a married woman, the shame and embarrassment in her heart was relieved a little, and she slowly stretched her hand out from the curtain.
Yu Jiao placed her fingers on Zhang Xiu Yue's wrist, took her pulse, put the pulse pillow into the medicine box, and said to Zhang Xiu Yue who was lying on the bed, "Please go to the bathroom, Miss Zhang. I need to check the affected area."
Zhang Xiuyue's eyes widened in shock when she heard that. Then, shame and humiliation spread all over her pretty face. She grabbed the pillow and threw it at Yu Jiao outside the curtain, saying, "Get out! Mother, let her go! If my daughter is humiliated like this, I would rather die!"
Yu Jiao dodged the incoming pillow and saw Madam Zhang looking at her with hesitation. She pulled the corners of her lips helplessly, picked up the pillow on the ground and put it on the chair, and explained, "I have no intention of humiliating you. The pulse is related to the internal organs and blood. Diagnosis can only diagnose the internal yin and yang, and the affected area needs to be seen with your own eyes to confirm the diagnosis."
Seeing that Yu Jiao was young but spoke so well, Madam Zhang approached the bedside and softly comforted Zhang Xiuyue, who was still ashamed and angry, "Yue'er, Miss Meng is also a girl, so it's okay to take a look. You will be married in the autumn and become a wife, so how can you be so shameless? Come, let me help you to the clean room."
However, Zhang Xiu Yue brushed Mrs. Zhang's hand away, bit her lip, covered her face with her hands and sobbed again. No matter how Mrs. Zhang tried to persuade her, she refused to agree.
Madam Zhang didn't dare to force it, so she had no choice but to say to Yu Jiao, "Miss Meng, Yue'er is unwilling after all. Do you have any other way to treat her?"
