What made Xiao Yanchu even more hesitant was that other doctors, including Mu Jingshan, who had examined Yi'er's illness, all said that they could only keep her alive with medication and that she might get better as she grew up. They placed all their hopes on waiting for a miracle to happen when Yi'er grew up.
But the little girl said directly that it would improve in three months, instead of simply making excuses and saying that it might get better when Yi'er grows up.
The difference is significant.
The people Xiao Yanchu sent out these past few days have also told him about the little girl's ability to treat people's illnesses. Is an adopted daughter who was abandoned by the prefect really that capable?
Maybe I should try to trust her just this once?
To gamble or not to gamble?
If the bet is right, Yi'er can grow up to be a healthy child.
If the gamble fails, at worst Yi'er can maintain the status quo.
As for safety, I can simply send more guards to protect Yi'er.
After thinking it over, Xiao Yanchu made up his mind: "In that case, I will leave Yi'er in Yanyang and come to pick him up in three months."
A hint of surprise flashed in Su Ruojin's eyes; she hadn't expected the man in front of her to be willing to believe her.
Since the patient trusted her, Su Ruojin had no reason not to treat him. Besides, she also liked Xiaobao very much, and she couldn't bear to let him stay like this forever.
"Please accept this blue bud fruit, Dr. Su, as part of the consultation fee, how about that?"
This time, Su Ruojin didn't refuse. Blue bud fruit is also very good for regulating Xiaobao's stomach and intestines.
"Thank you very much, Young Master Jiang. I have other matters to attend to at the clinic, so I will head over there now."
Su Ruojin took the box and led Xiaobao into the clinic.
Xiao Yanchu watched the two figures from behind.
After the two figures disappeared from sight, Xiao Yanchu called out, "Hu Qing."
Hu Qing appeared and knelt before Xiao Yanchu: "Master."
"You stay in Yanyang, with An Yi and the others, and are responsible for secretly protecting the young prince and Doctor Su. There must be no mistakes."
"Yes, Master."
After entering the clinic, Su Ruojin slowed her pace. When she took the box from Xiao Yanchu earlier, she seemed to have noticed a black line on his wrist.
There are dark lines on my wrist...
I feel like I've seen her somewhere before.
"Miss, who is this child?" Zhihua saw Su Ruojin enter the clinic and hurriedly came to greet her, interrupting her thoughts.
Su Ruojin snapped out of her thoughts: "Oh, this is... Xiao Bao, he needs to stay at the clinic for treatment for a while."
It's best to reveal as little information about the child as possible, in case anything unexpected happens.
Looking at Xiao Bao, whose eyes were somewhat vacant, Zhihua could tell at a glance that there was something wrong with the child. Thinking that he was sick at such a young age, she felt a little sorry for the child.
"Xiao Bao, Sister Su has something to do. Why don't you come with me to the backyard to rest? There's a little boy there, you can play with him." After saying that, she reached out to take Xiao Bao's hand.
Xiao Bao didn't react at all, he just held Su Ruojin's hand tightly.
Seeing this, Zhihua didn't dare to forcibly pull Xiaobao away.
Children with dementia should not be forced to do anything, otherwise it will trigger a violent reaction from the child, and they may even resist by harming themselves.
Fortunately, Xiao Bao was born into a wealthy family. If he had been born into an ordinary family, his illness might have been mistaken for madness, and he would have been abandoned by his family long ago.
"Never mind, I'll take him to the backyard. You keep an eye on things for a bit," Su Ruojin instructed.
"Yes, Miss. By the way, Miss, there are already patients waiting," Zhihua replied.
