Chapter 519
Le'an hurriedly returned from the front yard: "Doctor Feng is here."
Yunxi's expression changed, and she quickly walked forward.
At this moment, Madam Chen was standing at the door, looking at the little old man with a wary expression: "Are you a doctor? My Xi'er is perfectly fine, we haven't called a doctor!"
Doctor Feng looked at Madam Chen and was also completely confused.
Judging from the lady's tone, she seems to be Yunxi's elder, but no matter how you look at it, this lady and Yunxi have no resemblance whatsoever.
Just as the two were staring at each other, Yunxi came over: "Mother, you should go back first."
Madam Chen turned her head and looked her up and down: "Is this the doctor you invited? Are you not feeling well?"
"Ah..." Yunxi responded vaguely, "I couldn't sleep for the past two days, so I called a doctor."
"You can't sleep?" Madam Chen raised an eyebrow. "Who's the one who sleeps until noon every day and can't get out of bed? And you can't sleep?"
Helpless, Yunxi pulled Madam Chen back inside. After closing the courtyard gate, she took a few steps outside and lowered her voice, saying, "Doctor Feng, what brings you here?"
Doctor Feng didn't answer her question. Instead, he pointed to the tightly closed courtyard gate and lowered his voice, asking, "Who is that person?"
"It's my mother."
"Your mother?"
Doctor Feng's eyes widened as he carefully examined Yunxi once more.
He was a doctor and could tell a lot from a person's facial features, but no matter how he looked at them, he couldn't see any resemblance between Yunxi and that lady.
Jixiang interjected, "Oh, Doctor Feng, what's the matter?"
Doctor Feng came to his senses and regretted that he had lost his composure.
These kinds of things are family secrets, and as a doctor, he can't investigate them, but he doesn't know what just happened.
He straightened his expression and said, "It's Ah Ping. She's learning medicine from me now, leaving early and returning late. I was thinking it would be better to let her move in with me, so she wouldn't have to travel so much. At my age, I could be her grandfather, and there's no need to worry about any rumors spreading that might damage her reputation."
Actually, A-Ping had told him early on that Yunxi's mother had passed away and that the two of them, mother and daughter, were living together. As an outsider, she felt it was strange and wanted to move out, but she didn't know how to bring it up, so she had to ask Doctor Feng to come.
Yunxi did not immediately agree: "That's true, but don't you have a disciple by your side? He's not as old as you, is he? It's not appropriate."
"Besides, you've rented out all the empty rooms around here, where would there be room for A-Ping to stay?"
"This..." Doctor Feng was also at a loss.
Yunxi thought for a moment and then said, "How about this? I'll go to the pharmacy in the next couple of days to see if there are any vacant courtyards nearby. I'll rent one for Aping to live in. If there are more women studying medicine in the future, they'll have a place to live."
Doctor Feng nodded and said, "That's fine. Anyway, if you're going to open a women's clinic, you can't just have one girl, A-Ping. Renting a courtyard would be good too."
Yunxi nodded: "Let Aping come back to stay these days. I will get this done as soon as possible."
"good."
Watching Doctor Feng turn and leave, Yunxi also went back.
As soon as the courtyard gate was opened, Madam Chen's figure uncontrollably stumbled towards her. Fortunately, Le'an reacted quickly and stepped forward to support her.
Mrs. Chen breathed a sigh of relief: "You scared me to death! You silly girl, why didn't you tell me you were going to open the door beforehand!"
Yunxi: "...Mother, weren't you the one who eavesdropped first?"
Madam Chen put her hands on her hips and tilted her head back, and Yunxi was speechless.
"I just heard about some women's clinic and rented courtyards. What's going on?"
This wasn't something to be ashamed of, so Yunxi took Madam Chen's arm and went into the courtyard, explaining the whole story in detail...
