Xie Yushu and Qu Xiaodie returned to the inn, and Wu Tiezhu came over to say goodbye.
Wu Daya's two sets of clothes and shoes were finished. Daya's mother was very skillful. Although it was just ordinary coarse cotton, the clothes she made were neat and meticulous. Wu Daya, wearing a light green cross-collar short shirt, immediately looked clean and neat, and her spirits were much higher.
When Da Ya Niang saw Xie Yu Shu, she thanked her again, saying that it was Da Ya's good fortune to meet a mistress like Xie Yu Shu. She also said that Wu Tie Zhu was much better and that the family still had land and couldn't be left alone. They would be going back early the next morning!
Seeing that Wu Tiezhu was indeed alright, Xie Yushu didn't try to keep them. She let Wu Daya stay with them for one last night. The next morning, she spent ten copper coins to rent a cart for them to take them home.
Although Wu Daya was a little reluctant to see her family leave, she knew that they would have no worries about food and clothing and that their lives would be much better than before, so she didn't grieve for long. She packed her small bundle and followed Xie Yushu upstairs.
Xie Yushu didn't ask her to stand guard outside the door. Anyway, Qu Xiaodie and the others had booked a double room with two large beds and a bench. It wasn't cold in the summer, so she let Wu Daya rest on the bench.
Now that Wu Daya has officially become Xie Yushu's maid, she naturally can no longer be called Wu Daya. Xie Yushu has given her a new name, Nanxing. Wu Daya's eyes lit up when she heard this. Most of the maids in the village are called Daya, Erya, or other names like "red flower" and "green leaf," but she really liked the name Nanxing and happily said...
"Nanxing thanks Your Majesty for bestowing upon me this name!"
"Alright, you can relax for the next few days. Once you're more familiar with things, I'll assign you tasks. But there's one thing: you must set aside one hour each day to practice martial arts with Qu Xiaodie. I don't keep incompetent people around me!"
"Don't worry, Master, I will definitely learn from Master Qu!"
"Don't call me 'Master' anymore, just call me 'Miss'!"
"Yes, young lady!"
Although Wu Daya looked simple and honest, she was actually quite clever and quick-witted, which pleased Xie Yushu greatly.
Two days passed in a flash. Early on the third day, Wen Ruyu's carriage came to pick up Xie Yushu and take her to the Wen residence. This time, Nanxing was taken along as well. He would stay by her side from now on and be taken out to see all sorts of people and things!
Wen Da, who had been captivated by Wen Ruyu and sent away, has returned. He not only brought a group of servants, but also invited two famous doctors from Jinyang City, Doctor Liu from Minxintang and Doctor Li from Huichuntang. Doctor Liu was accompanied by a boy of about seventeen or eighteen years old, but he was stopped by Wen Ruyu and did not examine Old Madam Wen at the moment.
The two doctors had originally come to expose the fraudsters after hearing that a swindler had cheated Madam Wen, claiming that he could restore her sight after she had been blind for almost two years in just three days. However, when they saw that the so-called fraudster was Xie Yushu, their indignation suddenly vanished!
To be honest, the two of them have been to this clinic countless times because of Madam Wen's eyesight. They even heard they consulted a retired imperial physician, but nothing worked. Just now, they heard someone shamelessly claiming they could restore her sight in three days, and they both spat out a curse.
"That's pure nonsense!"
But now that they've met Xie Yushu, and remembering how she cured the person who had left them helpless that day with just a turn of her head, their arrogance vanished instantly. This person might actually be able to cure them, and they might as well be here to witness a miracle.
Doctor Liu even secretly made up his mind. If Xie Yushu truly possessed such divine skills, he would be willing to betray his ancestors to choose another master!
Wen Da's eyes blazed with fury when he saw Xie Yushu, and he said viciously.
"You vixen! The three days are up now. If anything happens to my grandmother's eyes, I'll skin you alive!"
Xie Yushu said coolly
"What if Madam Wen regains her sight?"
Wen Da didn't believe for a second that any medical skill could restore sight to eyes that had been blind for nearly two years in just three days. He thought it was utter nonsense that even the imperial physicians couldn't do it and a mere girl could!
Seeing Xie Yushu recklessly questioning him, he immediately retorted, "Once I regain my sight, I'll call you Grandma!"
"Alright, you said it yourself, so get ready to kowtow and be served tea!"
"Hey! Wait, wait, this doesn't count!"
"I don't want to be someone's grandson, brother. Miss Xie and I are just friends. You're calling her 'grandma,' what am I supposed to do? You'd better find someone else!"
"you……"
Wen Da was furious with his rebellious younger brother, but he couldn't do anything about it. He angrily changed a sentence...
"If you can cure him, I will give you a thousand taels of silver!"
If you can't cure me, I'll skin you alive and parade you through the streets like a swindler!
Xie Yushu smiled
"You're really something! Now I can take the money with a clear conscience!"
Old Madam Wen had been waiting impatiently. Seeing Xie Yushu arrive, she asked expectantly...
Will I really be able to see it in a moment?
"If you haven't shown any abnormalities in the past two days, then you're fine. I'll remove the bandages for you right away!"
"Okay! Good!"
Xie Yushu skillfully unwrapped the bandages layer by layer, and once she was finished, she told Old Madam Wen.
"You're recovering very well, you can slowly open your eyes now!"
Old Madam Wen cautiously opened her eyes, and a girl with tight sleeves, bright eyes, and white teeth came into view.
"You, you must be Doctor Xie! Oh my, you're so handsome! Have you found a husband yet?"
"I have a husband's family now!"
"Sigh! What a pity, none of the three of us have found wives yet!"
"Grandma, your eyes are better now!"
"Oh, it's really okay now! See, I forgot about you as soon as I saw you. You're right, I can see now!"
Eldest, Third, Grandma can see now! Come quick, my two precious grandchildren, let Grandma see you!
"Grandma, you can really see! That's great! Can you tell if I've grown taller?"
Wen Ruyu ran to Old Madam Wen in three steps and squatted down, hugging Old Madam Wen's arm and shaking it. Old Madam Wen liked him so much because he knew how to be cute. With him, Old Madam Wen made up for the regret of not having a granddaughter!
Wen Da also waved his hand in front of Old Mrs. Wen's eyes in disbelief.
"Grandma, can you see me? Guess where my hand is?"
Grandma Wen slapped Wen Da's hand with lightning speed!
"These aren't your claws, if you stretch them any further you'll poke my face!"
Wen Da was still unwilling to give up.
"Grandma, what color clothes am I wearing? What color belt am I wearing?"
"Flamboyant red paired with dog shit green!"
"I've said it eight hundred times already, this is crimson, crimson, not sexy crimson!"
The belt's base color is peacock blue! Not dog poop green!
Madam Wen said indifferently
"They're all pretty much the same, so I'll go with that one!"
Xie Yushu asked leisurely
"Young Master Wen, are you certain that I have cured the old lady's eyes?"
Wen Da glared at Xie Yushu with annoyance, then turned to the two doctors, Li and Qi.
"Could you two please take a look? Is my grandmother's eye completely healed?"
The two were already incredibly excited, but out of politeness they hadn't dared to join in. Now that they had received an invitation from Wen University, they squeezed their way in faster than rabbits.
