Jiang Mingwei curled her lips into a cold smile, a hint of disdain flashing in her eyes. She looked coldly at Granny Wang, her tone sarcastic.
"So, even Granny Wang knows she's a servant? You're a servant, and I'm the mistress. Why should I listen to you?"
"Besides, I'm afraid Granny Wang has forgotten... how it felt when I slapped her before!"
Seeing Wang Mama's face stiffen, Jiang Mingwei's expression turned cold, and she spoke without any politeness: "Mama, where do you get all this life advice from? In that case, as your mistress, I'll give you a piece of advice too—"
Mind your own business, or you'll regret it when you get beaten up!
After saying that, he snorted coldly and turned to leave.
Granny Wang was so angry that her face turned pale and her whole body trembled, but she couldn't do anything to Jiang Mingwei.
He could only stare angrily at her retreating figure, wishing he could tear her to pieces!
Hua Cui glanced at Granny Wang's face, which was even blacker than a pot, then turned to Jiang Mingwei with a grin and gave her a thumbs up.
"Wow, Miss, you're amazing! Granny Wang is about to be driven crazy by you!"
"Trying to fight me? She doesn't even know if she's capable! Zhou Shi and Lu Yun are already troublesome enough, and she still wants to interfere with me?"
"That's like a dog catching a mouse—meddling in other people's business!"
Jiang Mingwei curled her lip and said disdainfully.
After leaving the general's mansion, the two headed straight for Renyifang.
As I walked in, I happened to see several people who had come to buy medicine leaving.
They carried the packaged medicine, chatting and laughing, clearly very satisfied.
Jiang Mingwei was surprised; she hadn't expected that business would actually gradually improve!
Upon hearing the sound, the shopkeeper looked up and saw Jiang Mingwei. He was taken aback at first, but then immediately smiled broadly.
"So it's Miss! But you've come at an inopportune time. They haven't found any more medicinal herbs yet, otherwise I would have informed you already. Or do you have any other plans?"
Jiang Mingwei looked at the already packaged medicine on the counter and couldn't help but ask.
"Has the pharmacy's business picked up recently?"
"Miss's judgment is spot on! Indeed, ever since you suggested that the pharmacy restock with a batch of high-quality medicines and lower the prices, business has actually picked up again!"
The shopkeeper grinned from ear to ear, "Although there's still a significant difference compared to before, it's much better than having no business at all, don't you think, Miss?"
"Great job, keep it up! I'll definitely give you a big red envelope at the end of the year!"
Jiang Mingwei nodded in satisfaction and continued to make empty promises.
The shopkeeper's eyes lit up, and he repeatedly thanked Jiang Mingwei in advance.
"I'm here today to inform you that you need to call all the herb gatherers to the shop tomorrow. I have something to tell them, something very important! So please make sure they all come. The clinic will cover their lost wages for tomorrow."
Jiang Mingwei didn't hide anything and made the arrangements straightforwardly.
The shopkeeper was slightly taken aback, not understanding why Jiang Mingwei had made this arrangement.
Her serious expression suggested that she was about to announce something important.
So he quickly nodded in agreement.
After confirming the diagnosis, Jiang Mingwei picked up two doses of medicine to treat her internal injuries. Thinking about Wei Jing's injuries, she also prepared some medicine for him to help him recover faster.
As they were preparing to leave, several raggedly dressed people arrived, clearly extremely poor.
Several people were carrying a pale-faced, unconscious child, standing at the entrance of the clinic, seemingly unsure whether to go in or not, wondering if the clinic was expensive.
Little did they know, Renyifang had no doctors at all!
But since I know medicine, I can't just stand by and watch someone die.
As Jiang Mingwei brushed past them, she finally stopped and looked down at the child.
It's a little girl, she looks about ten years old.
His face was as pale as paper, and his small face was so thin that the skin was stuck to the bones, making him look like a little monkey.
What's wrong with this child?
Jiang Mingwei asked in a low voice. The others came to their senses and saw that although Jiang Mingwei was dressed simply, her clothes were all made of the finest and most expensive materials. They knew that she must be rich!
A woman immediately knelt down and cried out, "Madam, please, please save my daughter! She's my only child, and I don't want her to die, but we really have no money for treatment. Please, Madam, have mercy and save my daughter. I'm willing to do anything for you!"
Seeing this, the shopkeeper had no choice but to step forward and drive the group away for Jiang Mingwei, but his tone was not unpleasant.
"Gentlemen, my young lady has always been pampered and would never know how to treat illnesses. We don't have a doctor here, but we do have medicinal herbs. How about I take a look at the child's symptoms and pick out a couple of doses for you to try at home?"
Jiang Mingwei raised her hand to interrupt the shopkeeper and turned to walk into Renyifang.
He didn't forget to turn back and instruct, "Bring that child in so I can take a look."
Upon hearing this, the woman who was kneeling and weeping immediately joined the others in carrying the girl into Renyifang.
Seeing this, the shopkeeper couldn't stop them even if he wanted to, and could only sigh helplessly.
Following Jiang Mingwei, the group went behind the curtain.
Jiang Mingwei placed the girl on the bed and checked her pulse.
Knowing that she was diagnosing and saving lives, none of them dared to utter a word, and even the shopkeeper held his breath.
He discovered that the young lady knew a lot about medicinal herbs, but he didn't know that she could also treat people's illnesses.
When did you learn such skills, Miss?
The girl's problem wasn't very serious; she had probably eaten something unclean recently, which caused her to vomit and have diarrhea, leading to dehydration and shock.
After confirming her question, Jiang Mingwei let go of her hand.
The woman immediately stepped forward and knelt down on the ground.
While kowtowing to Jiang Mingwei, he pressed her for an answer: "Madam, how is my Niu Niu? Is she alright? Is she still alive? She's my only daughter. If she dies, I won't live either!"
After saying that, she covered her face and cried miserably.
The others, who were probably from the same village as her, were trying their best to comfort her, their faces filled with sorrow and sympathy.
Jiang Mingwei picked up a pen and paper and started writing and drawing on the paper.
A moment later, she handed the paper to the woman.
"Don't worry, your child is fine. He just had vomiting and diarrhea for too long, which caused him to fall into a coma. He'll be fine after taking some medicine and getting some rest."
The woman was taken aback, then overjoyed, and thanked her repeatedly.
Before Jiang Mingwei could say anything, the woman glanced at the prescription in her hand, and a troubled expression appeared on her face...
"May I ask, madam, how much does this medicine cost?"
As he spoke, he shakily pulled out a copper coin from his pocket.
I counted them one by one, and there were only twenty coins left!
The woman clearly knew that this was not enough.
She looked up, her gaze filled with sorrow and helplessness as she looked at Jiang Mingwei.
"Twenty coins... that probably isn't enough, is it? Is there any chores Madam needs me to do? I would gladly do it even at the cost of my life!"
After saying that, he started banging his head on the ground repeatedly.
Jiang Mingwei was startled and quickly stepped forward to help her up, "Get up quickly, why are you doing this?"
