The carriage sped along the country lanes, while it was pitch black outside.
Only one candle was burning in the carriage, casting a dim, indistinct light.
Wei Jingzhuo looked at Su Wan with a complicated expression, and after a long while, he finally spoke: "Then I'll have to trouble you."
Su Wan waved her hand dismissively, "It's nothing difficult, it just means I have to get IV fluids every day."
She explained it to him, and although Wei Jingzhuo didn't quite understand her medical terminology, it didn't stop him from quickly grasping it.
The more Su Wan spoke, the deeper his gaze became.
He had never heard of such a method of healing people before; it must be something only a family of reclusive divine healers could do.
However, he had been searching for a reclusive family of divine healers for many years without any news.
Who is the person in front of me?
He suddenly asked, "Your medical skills are so amazing, why have I never heard anyone mention them?"
Su Wan took a sip of water and almost choked when she heard his words: "Cough! Cough! Cough!"
Wei Jingzhuo pulled out a handkerchief from somewhere and handed it to her: "Wipe it off."
"Thanks." She took it and wiped it haphazardly. She wanted to give it back to him, but when she saw that it was already stained with water, she took it back and threw it aside.
Wei Jingzhuo picked up the handkerchief she had thrown aside, folded it neatly, and placed it on the table.
Su Wan: "..."
She pretended not to see it.
“I learned my medical skills from the medical books left by my mother,” she explained, afraid he wouldn’t believe her. “As you know, my father was Prefect Su. He knew I loved studying medicine, so he collected many medical books for me to read. Unfortunately, I was still too inexperienced at that time and couldn’t save my father.”
She lowered her head, avoiding his probing gaze.
Wei Jingzhuo didn't seem to care about any of that: "I didn't expect you to be Lord Su's daughter."
Although Lord Su's actions were somewhat unexpected, he was still a good official who cared for the people.
It was only when this was mentioned that Su Wan remembered their marriage.
She has now stabilized Wei Jingzhuo's condition. As long as she leaves him the medicine, his survival shouldn't be a problem. After thinking about it, she decided to give him the medicine.
She opened her medicine box and took out the medicine. "That's right, I am Lord Su's daughter. As you know, I was originally engaged, but my aunt changed the engagement. Our engagement should not be counted."
Wei Jingzhuo squinted at her, his gaze deep and unsettling. For some reason, Su Wan sensed his displeasure.
But she couldn't care less about that now; all she wanted was to run away and reunite with Su Yuze.
Wei Jingzhuo put down his bamboo teacup, his expression indifferent. "What do you want?"
Su Wan looked up at him and said seriously, "I remember you said before that you would have Granny Cui see me off, right?"
"Are you leaving now?" Wei Jingzhuo's voice was cold, his expression blank.
Su Wan placed the medicine on the low table and pointed to it, saying, "Don't worry, this medicine is enough for you for half a month. By then, the poison in your body will naturally be cured, and you won't need me anymore."
As for the foot injury, out of professional ethics as a doctor, she will definitely help him afterwards.
She just had to wait for her to leave, because she was afraid that if she didn't leave soon, she would never be able to leave again.
Wei Jingzhuo nodded, his slender fingers tapping lightly on the table.
Seeing that he hadn't spoken for a while, Su Wan assumed he was worried about the poison in his body. "Don't worry, you can send someone to find me when the time comes. I will always be at the Baohetang pharmacy in Suiyang County. That's my shop."
As for the Su family, she has no plans to go back.
Wei Jingzhuo slightly lowered his gaze, his expression unreadable, his demeanor remaining cold and aloof: "Have you thought it through?"
“Of course,” she said without hesitation.
Wei Jingzhuo lifted the curtain in front of him: "In that case, I'll have Qingfeng escort you back to Suiyang County."
With his words, Su Wan felt much more relaxed. She hadn't expected him to be so easy to talk to. In her excitement, she took a box of vitamin pills from the first-aid kit in her apartment.
She smiled and handed it to him, saying, "Here, take one of these every day to replenish the nutrients your body is missing."
Wei Jingzhuo stared at the unfamiliar white box on the table for a long time before finally tucking it into his sleeve.
"Qingfeng, stop the car," Wei Jingzhuo instructed Lin Qingfeng, puzzled. "Take Miss Su back to Suiyang County."
Lin Qingfeng was puzzled when he heard his master tell him to send his wife away.
Upon hearing this, Granny Cui immediately turned around, forgetting her own status, and said, "Master, what are you doing? You've just gotten married and you're sending your wife away already. What will others think of Madam?"
Although she, as a servant, had no right to interfere in her master's affairs, this matter concerned her master's life and death, so she had no choice but to risk her life to stop it.
Firstly, she was convinced that Su Wan was the person Master Huiming had mentioned, and secondly, she also hoped that her master would have someone who understood her needs.
She said anxiously, "My lady, please, for the sake of the deceased Empress, do not send Miss Su away."
“Granny Cui, it’s me who’s leaving, it has nothing to do with your master,” Su Wan explained as she jumped off the carriage. “Qingfeng, could you please see me off?”
Lin Qingfeng glanced at Wei Jingzhuo, who remained calm and simply said, "Go quickly and come back quickly."
When Granny Cui saw that Su Wan was determined to leave, she was so anxious that she was sweating profusely.
Seeing that Su Wan was determined to leave, he could only worry anxiously.
Having received his orders, Lin Qingfeng had no choice but to lead out a horse. Su Wan was somewhat intimidated by the tall, imposing horse, as she had never ridden a horse before.
She said, "Brother Lin, let's switch to that little donkey."
Lin Qingfeng then switched to the newly purchased donkey.
After placing the medicine box on the donkey's back, she stepped onto it using the pedals.
