Chapter 629: Visiting to Thank You
When Liu Zhicheng brought his wife Liu to the general's mansion, Wan Quan had just returned.
"General, Lord Liu and Madam Liu are here."
"Okay, got it. Bring out the best tea in our house and entertain Lord Liu later. I'll go out and greet him."
Wan Quan only found out this morning that the person he rescued yesterday was actually the eldest daughter of the Liu family. He was also very surprised, but that was all.
It’s not that Wanquan doesn’t want to be responsible for someone else, it’s just that he doesn’t want to marry someone above his station. He doesn’t want to be like his father, who married the county magistrate’s sister and lived a miserable life.
Although Boss Wan didn't feel aggrieved, the fact that he separated from the family after getting married still made Wan Quan feel a little uncomfortable.
In his heart, he had never thought that their family would be divided one day. Even if it was divided, it would not be for everyone, but only for the main house. He was still young and powerless at that time, but now he has grown up and can make decisions for himself. He does not want to repeat his father's old path.
Before Wan Quan reached the gate, he saw servants leading Liu Zhicheng and Madam Liu in.
"I didn't know Lord Liu was coming to visit. I'm sorry for not welcoming you. Please forgive me."
"General Wan, you are too polite. It is my husband and I who are here to bother you."
After the two parties exchanged greetings, Wan Quan led the person into the main hall.
The two sides sat down as host and guest. This was the first time Wan Quan received a civil official, and also the first time he dealt with a civil official after being appointed as the General of the Central Army of Dezhou. He was a little uncomfortable, but fortunately Liu Zhicheng came with a purpose this time, and he came to thank him only for Old Madam Liu to hear, to prevent her from causing trouble.
Madam Liu sat for a while, then stood up and said, "General Wan, I heard that your sister is a little miracle doctor with excellent medical skills. I brought her a thank-you gift this time. I wonder if I can meet her?"
Wan Quan thought about how the little girl had reminded him no less than ten times early in the morning that if someone wanted to see her today, he must bring that person over.
How could Wanquan dare not disobey? But how did Fubao know that someone wanted to see her?
Wanquan didn't think any more about it, as the other person was still waiting for his reply.
"Madam Liu really thinks highly of her. She is just a little girl, not a miracle doctor. Since you want to see her, I will have someone take you to the backyard."
"Then I'll trouble you, General."
Soon Wanquan called a servant, but this servant was a man, and Madam Liu couldn't help but frowned.
Wan Quan was very careful and noticed Madam Liu's expression. He quickly explained, "Madam, there are only two maids in my house. Now they are serving in my sister's yard. I am really rude to you."
After listening to Wan Quan's explanation, Madam Liu could not help but feel happy. It seemed that General Wan was not interested in women. When Shiyu married into the family in the future, the backyard would be clean and there would be no parents-in-law. She heard that his parents were at the border and were unwilling to come over. Then Shiyu would be the mistress when she entered the family, and there would be no need to set any rules. It was really a great blessing.
The more Mrs. Liu thought about it, the more she liked it.
"General Wan is truly devoted to the country and not concerned about the backyard. No wonder the emperor values him so much."
How could Madam Liu know who the emperor valued? She just said a few random words to ease the embarrassment.
Madam Liu bowed and went to the backyard.
Fubao is reading a medical book. These are all prepared for her by Wanquan. She has not gone out this morning. Apart from eating, she has been reading books. She has never left the house.
"Miss, Madam Liu is here."
Banxia saw someone approaching from afar. She had seen Madam Liu before, so she knew her. She hurried into the house to report to Fubao.
"Then prepare the tea. Today is a good day." Fubao stretched lazily, closed the book in front of her, and then stepped down on the footstool that Wanquan had prepared for her.
"Mrs. Liu, please come in."
When Fubao heard Banxia's voice, she quickly pulled at her clothes. She couldn't afford to embarrass her elder brother.
As soon as Mrs. Liu came in, she saw a pretty little girl. Even though she had seen so many beauties in the capital, she couldn't help but exclaim: What a pretty girl.
When Mrs. Liu saw Fubao, she felt an indescribable sense of comfort all over her body. She felt that all the depression she had felt in the Liu family today had disappeared, and her body felt indescribably relaxed.
Madam Liu was very surprised, but she didn't know what was going on, so she didn't think about it any further.
"Fubao has met Aunt Liu."
Fubao performed the bowing ceremony in a proper manner. She couldn't learn the bowing posture well, so she felt it was more comfortable to do it this way.
Madam Liu didn't particularly care about Fubao's etiquette and quickly stepped forward to pull Fubao up.
"Are you General Wan's sister? The little miracle doctor?"
"Aunt, I am General Wan's sister. I am a junior doctor, but I don't dare to call myself a miracle doctor."
Madam Liu was so happy when she saw Fubao speaking in a serious manner. This little girl was so adorable. How long had it been since she had seen such a little smart girl?
"Auntie, please sit down."
Fubao took Mrs. Liu's hand and sat down at the table. Only then did she realize that the table and stools in Fubao's room were a little different from those she had seen before.
"Your stool is quite special."
"Aunt, this is something my elder brother prepared for me. Because I'm too small, my elder brother was afraid that I couldn't reach the table, so he had someone make this kind of stool."
Mrs. Liu did not expect Wan Quan to be so meticulous. Thinking that she had just frowned and Wan Quan had discovered the clue, she could not help but sigh. It seemed that her Shiyu would be blessed in the future. There were so few men who could spend time and effort on women. It was lonely and unbearable in a large mansion. If her husband did not understand, then living in this life would be too bitter. Just like her, there were several concubines in the backyard who were jealous of each other every day, giving her a headache.
Fubao observed Mrs. Liu's expression and knew that these words had touched her heart. A gleam of light flashed in her bright big eyes.
"Aunt, is my sister feeling better?"
"Oh, are you talking about my daughter Shiyu? She is much better now, thanks to your timely rescue. I came here today to thank you. If you hadn't let her take a medicinal bath, she might still be lying in bed with a fever. The river water in early spring is icy cold. She has been raised since she was a child. I was worried that she would not be able to withstand it and catch a cold."
Mrs. Liu was grateful to Fubao from the bottom of her heart. If Liu Shiyu had really caught a cold, she might have been kept in Texas by the old lady on the pretext of recuperating.
"Aunt, I'm not just talking about her not having a cold. I'm talking about the chronic toxins in sister's body. Did she take the medicine according to the prescription I gave her? I asked sister Banxia to deliver this prescription in the cold wind. You must not be careless, otherwise even if you save her, it will affect your offspring in the future."
Madam Liu was frightened to death by Fu Bao's words, "Little doctor, are you saying that my daughter is poisoned? That shouldn't be the case, right? She doesn't have any physical problems? I haven't heard that she is feeling unwell anywhere, could you have made a mistake?"
Fu Bao looked into Madam Liu's eyes and said seriously, "Aunt, if you don't believe me, just wait another seven days. Sister will definitely fall into a coma. But by that time, even if she is rescued, she won't be able to have another baby in the future."
Mrs. Liu was sweating profusely at this moment. She quickly took out a jade bracelet from her bosom and put it into Fubao's hand.
"Little doctor, this is my gift to you. Can you tell me in detail how my daughter was poisoned? And why she looks normal?"
Fubao picked up the jade bracelet and smiled sweetly: "Auntie, thank you for the gift, I like it very much."
Fubao quickly put the jade bracelet into her arms and put it away, thinking that this was her medical fee.
