Jiang Yuwei could roughly tell that the woman probably didn't know she was allergic to soybeans. Right now, all her symptoms looked like an acute allergic reaction. If they didn't find a way to reduce the swelling in her throat soon, she might suffocate.
So Jiang Yuwei quickly threw away the soybean cake that the woman was still holding in her hand, and then began to press the Lieque acupoints on both of her hands. Soon the woman slowly woke up.
Her family heard the news and rushed over. Seeing that Jiang Yuwei had saved her, they thanked her profusely. Jiang Yuwei waved her hand and said...
"Forget about that. Right now, I've only temporarily reduced the swelling in her throat. You should take her to a clinic for treatment as soon as possible."
Upon hearing this, the woman's family members nodded hurriedly, carried her on their backs, and rushed to the clinic.
At this moment, the skilled healer Zhu, who was standing not far away, witnessed the entire scene. He was very impressed by Jiang Yuwei's composure in the face of danger and the details of her rescue, and murmured to himself:
"It seems that my medical skills have found a successor."
After saying that, the skilled healer Zhu walked towards her own courtyard.
Jiang Yuwei led everyone around for a while longer, but then lost interest in shopping. She told Liu Shi and Ning Qiu to take Ning Wan and Ning Zhao back to the inn to wait for news, while she pushed Ning Huaizhi's wheelchair towards the home of the skilled healer Zhu.
Upon arriving at the home of the skilled healer Zhu, they found him reclining on a chair in the courtyard, eyes closed, coldly saying:
"You guys actually came back! I'm starving, hurry up and cook me some food!"
Seeing this, Jiang Yuwei quickly pushed Ning Huaizhi into the courtyard, then looked at the skilled healer Zhu and said:
"Okay, I'll go prepare your meal right away."
Jiang Yuwei hadn't eaten much while saving people, and she was indeed a bit hungry now, so she decided to make a simple dinner for everyone to eat together.
With that in mind, Jiang Yuwei prepared the dough and planned to steam a pot of sweet, blooming steamed buns. Then she went to call Tiezhu to help her light the fire, and prepared four dishes to go with the rice tonight.
Jiang Yuwei first prepared a sweet and sour fish. She cut the cleaned fish into decorative shapes, then rubbed cooking wine, pepper, and salt on the fish and inside the cavity. She added shredded green onions and ginger slices to marinate the fish for a while. Then she mixed starch with water to make a starch paste and spread the starch paste evenly on the fish.
Finally, fry the fish in oil heated to 70% until it sets. Remove it from the oil and place it on a plate. Then, prepare a sweet and sour sauce and pour it over the fried fish.
After finishing that dish, Jiang Yuwei made a lighter version of stir-fried loofah with eggs, and then stewed a small hen with dried shiitake mushrooms. By this time, the dough she had prepared had already risen.
Jiang Yuwei first divided the dough into equal portions, then kneaded it continuously to release the air until the dough was smooth. Then, Jiang Yuwei took a kitchen knife and slightly flattened the kneaded dough.
Next, make three deep cuts on the dough. Let it rest for a while. Once the dough has rested enough, put it in a dry pan with a little oil and fry both sides of the dough until they are browned. Then steam it until cooked.
Jiang Yuwei put the steamed buns into the large pot to steam. At the same time, the mushroom and chicken stew in the small pot was ready, and the aroma had already wafted out. Jiang Yuwei quickly opened the lid, added the last of the seasonings, and then plated and served it.
The skilled Zhu had been sitting at the table, eagerly waiting for the meal to begin.
Seeing that three dishes had already been served and there was still one dish missing, Jiang Yuwei quickly made a stir-fried green pepper and pork dish and brought it to the table. Ning Daya's injuries have recovered very well, and she can now eat normal meals with everyone. As usual, Jiang Yuwei set aside some of the food and had Tiezhu take it into the house to keep Daya company.
Tie Zhu was naturally overjoyed. He had been taking great care of Daya these past few days, and he felt that Daya's attitude towards him was getting better and better, and their relationship was getting deeper and deeper. Tie Zhu hoped that Daya could get better soon, and that his marriage with Daya could be put on the agenda as soon as possible, so that he could finally put his mind at ease.
When Jiang Yuwei brought the soft, sweet, and fragrant steamed buns to the table, she clearly saw Miaoshou Zhu's eyes light up. He reached out to grab the buns, but Jiang Yuwei was too late. The freshly steamed buns were so hot that Miaoshou Zhu jumped up from his stool, clutching his hands and blowing on them repeatedly.
Jiang Yuwei couldn't help but laugh when she saw him like this; he really was a child at heart.
Seeing that Jiang Yuwei dared to mock him, the skilled healer Zhu Jian became somewhat angry and said:
"You woman! It's one thing to not care whether I live or die from being burned, but you even dare to laugh at me! All that effort to save your friend's life has been for nothing!"
As he spoke, Master Zhu squinted and examined Ning Huaizhi's legs, slowly saying:
“I was originally going to teach you how to help your husband stand up, but it seems you don’t really need it right now.”
Upon hearing what the skilled healer Zhu said, Jiang Yuwei's eyes lit up immediately. Ning Huaizhi's leg had indeed improved a lot after being treated according to Doctor Lin's method. She had also been consistently giving him medicinal baths, decocting medicine, and acupuncture, but the effect was too slow. After so long, Ning Huaizhi's leg had not improved much.
The skilled healer Zhu Fang said he had a way to help Ning Huaizhi stand up, so he must be telling the truth. I absolutely cannot let go of such a good opportunity.
So Jiang Yuwei quickly put down the steamed bun in her hand, stood up, and respectfully bowed to the skilled healer Zhu, saying:
"Miraculous Healer Zhu, I was very rude just now. If you know how to completely cure my husband's leg, please tell me."
Master Zhu snorted, slowly walked to the table and sat down before speaking:
"Hmph, if I wanted to heal his leg, it would be a piece of cake. But we've only just met, and I absolutely cannot pass on my best skills to you!"
Master Zhu picked up his chopsticks, glanced indifferently at Ning Huaizhi, and continued:
“I think it’s best to let your husband’s leg stay like this for another three days. Once it’s completely gone, he won’t be able to stand up anymore, and there’ll be no need for further treatment, saving us the trouble.”
Upon hearing this, Jiang Yuwei turned and exchanged a deep look with Ning Huaizhi. Then, gritting her teeth, she knelt down before the skilled healer Zhu and bowed, saying:
“I am determined to cure my husband’s leg. I don’t want our relationship to end in a fleeting encounter with a divine healer like you. If, if you don’t mind my situation, I would like to become your apprentice!”
Upon hearing this, Master Zhu's lips curled slightly, and then he feigned composure and said:
“My skills can’t be learned in a few days. If you’re in a hurry to leave, there’s no need to make a fuss. You can leave once your friend in the house has recovered. As for your husband’s leg, it’s destined to be crippled.”
