"Grandpa Xiao, it's getting colder these days, so please keep warm. Lie down first, and I'll give you a few acupuncture needles." Su Ruojin helped Xiao Jiyuan walk to the bed.
Xiao Jiyuan did not refuse and let Su Ruojin give him acupuncture.
Half an hour later, Su Ruojin put away all the silver needles, took the handkerchief handed to her by Wang Xing, wiped the sweat from her forehead, and whispered, "Thank you, Uncle Wang."
Xiao Jiyuan was already fast asleep. Su Ruojin made a shushing gesture and walked outside with Wang Xing.
"Uncle Wang, has Grandpa Xiao been coughing a lot lately?"
"Miss Su, thanks to you, the master's old illness has not recurred all these years. Recently, he has been coughing a bit, probably because of the cold weather."
"That's good. I'll write another prescription later. His cough will be cured after three days of taking it."
"That's wonderful, thank you, Miss Su. It's good that you're here." Wang Xing sighed. Without the help of the young doctor Su to treat his master's health, his master would have suffered a lot.
After saying goodbye to Uncle Wang, Su Ruojin returned to the wooden house, where Huang Jian greeted her, "Little Jin'er, come and eat."
"You've arrived, Second Master."
At the dinner table, Su Ruojin placed a piece of fish on each of her four masters' plates and slowly said, "Master, I want to open a clinic."
Upon hearing this, Ye Xunzhi put down his chopsticks and looked at Su Ruojin: "Have you thought it through?"
"Um."
Previously, I was busy with other things and didn't have time to run the clinic. Now that things have been mostly settled, I've left the Lin family and opened a small clinic. I'll spend my time with my masters, Madam Lin, and Grandpa Xiao, living a peaceful life in this world. That's quite nice.
“Alright, your medical skills shouldn’t have been kept hidden from the world.” Ye Xunzhi said with emotion.
He knew from the first day he met Su Ruojin that this little girl was extraordinary. He had secretly investigated Su Ruojin and found that she was indeed an adopted child of the Lin family, with nothing particularly special about her.
But if there's nothing special about it, why would a five-year-old girl be able to cure the pollen poison from decaying leaves that even a poison doctor couldn't cure?
However, just as Su Ruojin never asked about their past, Ye Xunzhi never asked Su Ruojin about his doubts.
Everyone has their own secrets, and all he needs to know is that Xiao Jin'er is sincere towards them.
Ye Xunzhi was only interested in making and detoxifying poisons; treating patients was just something he did incidentally. He had no intention of practicing medicine to save lives, but he was even more unwilling to bury a medical genius like Su Ruojin.
If his master were still alive and met Xiao Jin'er, he would probably rather kick all his fellow disciples out of the sect than not take Xiao Jin'er as his disciple.
"Little Jin'er, do whatever you want without worry. Your second master will cover for you if anything happens," Huang Jian said.
"Thank you, Second Master."
"Little Jin'er, how about your third master goes to help you?" Luo Meiniang winked at Su Ruojin.
"Third Master, you'd better not go. I won't know if the people who come to the clinic are really sick or faking it," Su Ruojin hurriedly refused.
Just kidding. With Master San's looks, figure, and those alluring eyes, if she really went to the clinic, she'd probably be swarmed by countless male patients.
"Oh, you heartless little thing, you're starting to despise your master." Luo Meiniang took out a handkerchief and wiped away non-existent tears.
Su Ruojin quickly coaxed, "Third Master, the clinic is full of rough work, it will hurt your hands."
Upon hearing this, Luo Meiniang raised her fair and delicate hand and looked at it: "That's true, by then the money your clinic earns won't even be enough for me to maintain my hands."
"Little Jin'er, will you still come to listen to me play the zither after you open your clinic?" Fourth Master An Shao looked at Su Ruojin with a hint of resentment.
