Chapter 436 Ready to Leave
Doctor Zhou explained, "Mrs. Jiang's health is fine now. I have other things to do. I have already told Mr. Jiang about them. I will leave tomorrow."
Only then did Ye Mingzhu understand why he wanted to take her pulse every time he saw her.
She wanted to say something, but when she saw the two doormen of the Lin family were also surprised, she swallowed the words that were on her lips.
"Then I'll trouble you, Doctor Zhou. I don't know any medical skills, so I'll come over with my mother later." Ye Mingzhu felt that Aunt Qing must want to say goodbye to Doctor Zhou.
Doctor Zhou nodded: "Well, come over in half an hour."
After Ye Mingzhu returned, she asked Lao Hu to tell Aunt Qing that Doctor Zhou was leaving, and asked Yunniang to take out the clothes and shoes that she had made for Doctor Zhou.
Doctor Zhou had been in Pinggu Town for a few months, and his clothes were already worn out, so Aunt Qing wanted to make some clothes for him, but Zhou Jinman kept pestering her after she came.
Ye Mingzhu bought some cloth and asked Yunniang to make it. The most important thing was that Yunniang had excellent craftsmanship. She could cut the same cloth to save extra cloth. The clothes she hand-sewn were comparable to those made by machines.
Yunniang took out the finished clothes and shoes.
In addition to three sets of clothes and three pairs of shoes, she also made several purses and fan covers.
Ye Mingzhu used to think that her handicraft was pretty good, but now she shook her head and sighed: "Yunniang, from now on, when people ask me about my handicraft, I will never dare to say that I can do it again."
Yunniang tried her best to control the smile on her face: "It's just a few sets of clothes, everyone knows how to do it."
Ye Mingzhu picked up the clothes and looked them over: "The clothes you made can be taken to a clothing store and sold."
Aunt Qing came in with Zhou Jinman and asked, "What are you going to sell at the clothing store?"
Ye Mingzhu gave the clothes made by Yunniang to Aunt Qing: "Mom, I praise the clothes made by Yunniang. They are getting better and better. Look, they are more exquisite than those in the clothing store."
Aunt Qing, who had worn many fine clothes when she was young, also nodded and said, "Yunniang's embroidery is indeed very good."
Zhou Jinman followed Aunt Qing and took a look, her eyes flickering: "Is this dress for Fifteenth Uncle?"
Aunt Qing looked over the clothes and shoes, then wrapped them up in a bundle: "Yes, these are for Uncle Fifteen. I saw that his clothes were all worn out a few days ago, and these are just right for him to replace."
Zhou Jinman pulled over a piece of clothing and examined it carefully before asking Yunniang beside her, "Did you make this?"
Yunniang had seen Zhou Jinman's unreasonable behavior before, so she nodded cautiously, "Yes."
"Please make me a set of clothes. I have worn all my clothes and now I don't have any new clothes." Zhou Jinman said happily.
Aunt Qing immediately refused: "Jin Man, Yun Niang has a lot of things to do every day, I'm afraid she doesn't have time to make clothes for you."
Although Ye Mingzhu and Jiang Hongyu both said that Zhou Jinman concealed her true character, Aunt Qing felt that Zhou Jinman was too self-indulgent.
She wanted to ask her second sister-in-law in the capital. Even if she disliked a concubine's daughter, she couldn't leave her alone to discipline her. Who would go to her cousin's house and ask her cousin's servants to make clothes for them?
This is extremely rude.
Ye Mingzhu spoke more tactfully: "Jinman, if you have nothing to wear, I will take you to the cloth shop someday. There are some nice ready-made clothes there."
It’s not like Zhou Jinman has no clothes to wear, she just likes Yunniang’s craftsmanship.
"Aunt, cousin, I just think the clothes she makes are beautiful."
Zhou Jinman held Aunt Qing's hand tightly.
Aunt Qing almost dropped the bag she had just packed. She frowned and said, "Jin Man, you've come from the capital, and you've seen all kinds of clothes. We also need to send something to Uncle Fifteen, so please stop making a fuss."
Zhou Jinman looked at Ye Mingzhu, but Ye Mingzhu didn't look at her. She then looked at Yunniang, who kept her head down.
"Isn't it just making a piece of clothing? You can't even bear to do it." Zhou Jinman stomped her feet in anger and wanted to run out, but she was not familiar with the place outside. She felt awkward for a while and could only sit on a chair beside her and sulk.
Seeing that she had calmed down, Aunt Qing asked Ye Mingzhu to go next door to deliver something to Doctor Zhou.
Zhou Jinman wanted to go with them, but was rejected by Aunt Qing. Zhou Jinman's personality was too awkward, and Aunt Qing was afraid that she would throw a tantrum next door and make things awkward for both of them.
Zhou Jinman was about to cry: "I wanted clothes, but you refused to make them for me. I wanted to send them to my fifteenth uncle, but you refused. You are treating me like an outsider."
Aunt Qing felt a little soft-hearted, but still insisted: "Stay at home for a while, we will be back soon."
Zhou Jinman kept pouting until the two people left, then her expression changed.
Doctor Zhou's medicine boy had been waiting for Aunt Qing and Ye Mingzhu at the door. As soon as they arrived, the medicine boy immediately welcomed them in.
Doctor Zhou gave Ye Mingzhu the prescription he had written long ago, explained the instructions again, and then looked at Aunt Qing.
"Xiao Wu, I'm leaving tomorrow. I'll leave you an address. If you have anything in the future, just write to me directly."
Aunt Qing handed the bundle in her hand to Doctor Zhou: "Uncle Fifteen, this is the clothes I asked someone to make for you. Try it on later to see if it fits you."
Doctor Zhou took it and was surprised by its weight: "Why is there so much?"
"It's just three sets of clothes, how can it be too much?" Aunt Qing said with a hint of annoyance: "I have been accompanying Jin Man all the time recently, otherwise I would definitely make a set of clothes for Uncle Fifteen."
"Speaking of your niece, she has lived here for quite some time. How about letting her leave with me?" Although Doctor Zhou had not seen Zhou Jinman very often, he did not have a very good impression of her.
"Is Uncle Fifteen planning to go to the capital this time?" asked Aunt Qing.
"I have some things to do in the provincial capital first. After I finish my things there, I will go to the capital." Doctor Zhou returned to the provincial capital this time because he had something to do.
"Forget it then," Aunt Qing shook her head: "Jin Man is a bit noisy, so don't let her go with Uncle Fifteen."
"You are just too soft-hearted. Fortunately, Yan Hao is by your side." Doctor Zhou shook his head and did not say anything more about Zhou Jinman.
Ye Mingzhu listened quietly the whole time. Doctor Zhou gave Aunt Qing a few instructions and then looked at her: "Mingzhu, your mother is getting older and her health is not very good. You and Hongyu should take better care of her in the future."
Ye Mingzhu immediately nodded and agreed: "Don't worry, Uncle Fifteen, Hongyu and I will definitely take good care of mother."
"Well, the prescription I gave you includes not only some to regulate your body, but also some to protect your pregnancy. Just let your mother supervise you and give it to you when the time comes."
Doctor Zhou finally gave his silver needles to Aunt Qing. He reminded Aunt Qing: "Xiaowu, you have already learned how to use silver needles from me. I will give this set of silver needles to you. You can use them as appropriate when you encounter any problems in the future."
Aunt Qing didn't want to accept it: "Uncle Fifteen, this is what you have been using all the time, I can't accept it."
Doctor Zhou forced the silver needle into her hand and said, "I had this needle specially made for me. It's specifically for use with my technique. I'll just make another set when I get home."
