Is Chapter 215 a blood transfusion?
When Yu Jun reappeared, he was sitting in a wheelchair.
The legs below the knees were gone, and the trouser legs were hanging loosely.
The villagers surrounded him, sighing with emotion.
Mr. and Mrs. Yu walked over with stiff faces. "Lu Qingqing sawed off your leg without our consent. She has no respect for people at all."
"Then why have my parents let me stay at the Lu family's house these past few days without coming to see me even once?" Yu Jun asked expressionlessly.
The two men, cornered, looked even worse.
Changing the subject: "Sitting in this wheelchair, you can move around on your own, but you can't do heavy work anymore. Lu Qingqing sawed off your leg, so we have to think about your future. Ask her if she can let you do some work in the workshop."
“Father, this walking chair was made by the eldest brother of the Lu family, and it costs 3 taels of silver,” Yu Jun said.
The elderly couple's faces darkened.
"It's not like we made him do it."
"Besides, the Lu family is so rich, what's wrong with them helping some poor people?"
Yu Jun's eyes stung, and he said, "There's also the medical fee that saved my life, which is ten taels, so I owe the Lu family a total of thirteen taels."
Thirteen taels owed?
“I told you I had no money, but you insisted on going in! She knows you have no money but still wants to save someone, so she has to bear the cost herself!”
We're broke anyway!
Upon hearing this, the surrounding villagers all spoke up: "Yu Jun's father, you can't say that! Doctor Qingqing can't just watch Yu Jun die!"
"It's alright if you don't have money. Just write an IOU and pay it back slowly. I'm sure Dr. Qingqing won't make things difficult for you."
“We can’t pay it back. Our arms and legs are too weak to go out and find work, but no one will hire us. We’ll be buried in a few years. How can we earn thirteen taels?” Father Yu’s back was bent even more, and he looked like he could barely walk.
"Then let your eldest son pay it back. He can't just renege on the agreement, can he?" said Uncle Wu.
“The eldest son has to support the whole family, how can he repay us? Your family has many sons and earns a lot of money. My family only has one son left. Can’t the Lu family have some pity on us?”
To put it bluntly, they're just trying to renege on their debt!
Yu Jun looked as if he was both crying and laughing.
For half a day, his parents refused to push him home.
It's clear she doesn't want him anymore.
He told the village head not to tell his parents that he had sold himself into servitude, firstly because he was afraid they would make a scene and prevent him from getting his leg amputated, and secondly because he wanted to force himself to see their attitude clearly and completely sever ties with them.
As the village head said, I should remind myself not to do anything foolish in the future.
"Father, Mother, don't worry, you don't need to pay back the money."
I have already sold myself to the Lu family; from now on, I belong to the Lu family.
This is also the last time I will call you Father and Mother.
"What did you say? You've become someone else's slave!" Mr. Yu's eyes widened.
The next moment, he raised his hand and struck Yu Jun.
"You scoundrel! Our family has always been respectable, and we've never had a servant among our ancestors! But you, you sold yourself for thirteen taels! How shameless of you!"
Yu Jun grabbed his father's hand and shook him off.
"Then you should come up with thirteen taels of silver, take me home, and support this good-for-nothing from now on!"
Yu's father's face, which was full of humiliation, froze instantly, like a snotty nose that had been thrown on the ground for three days, dry and stiff.
"Is it alright, Father? It's only thirteen taels. It's worth it to restore our ancestors' honor!" Yu Jun said, his voice trembling with tears.
"Dad has no...Dad has no money."
Yu's mother covered her face and cried, "Jun, just stay in the Lu family. We are useless and can't afford to support you anymore."
The two of them turned around hastily, as if afraid of picking up something they couldn't shake off.
Behind him, Yu Jun spoke loudly: "Everyone heard that. From now on, I, Yu Jun, am no longer a member of the Yu family, and I have no relation to the Yu family whatsoever. My name from now on will be—Lu Jun!"
Lu Qingqing stepped out from behind the crowd and pushed the wheelchair.
"It doesn't matter whether it's Yu Jun or Lu Jun, as long as you have a sense of right and wrong."
"Come on, I'll show you around the workshop."
Lu Qingqing had already told Yu Jun that the workshop was very busy right now, and Lu Yun was in charge of all the accounts and medicine identification.
He was extremely busy, with people delivering medicinal herbs every day.
From now on, Yu Jun will learn accounting and medicine identification from Lu Yun, and gradually train people for various positions.
She and Sixi are about to step away and focus on their medical skills!
A person I hadn't seen in a long time came to the workshop.
Wan Yuting.
"Miss Lu, I would like to ask you something."
Wan Yuting has changed a bit; he has become much more composed, and the superficial smile he used to have is gone.
According to Lin Ye, he and Madam Wan are still a loving mother and son, but their relationship is no longer the same as before.
Madam Wan also did not live in the same residence as him.
Occasionally, Wan Yuting would stay at Madam Wan's estate for a while, and Madam Wan would not say anything about it.
She has adopted several children, and the yard is usually very lively. They all call Wan Yuting "elder brother".
However, Wan Yuting never responded.
"You can't hit someone who's smiling," Lu Qingqing nodded, "Go on."
“Miss Lu, I have a business partner who has been poisoned by an enemy and is in critical condition. He is currently spending a lot of money to find the head of the Holy Physician Sect to save his life, but we don’t know if he can hold on.”
I want to ask, last time, did you use a blood transfusion technique?
Last time he was blindfolded and taken to that courtyard, his wrist was pricked and bleeding was drawn, so he could still feel it.
That's why he asked that question.
Lu Qingqing immediately denied it.
"Are you kidding me? Who would I learn the blood-transfer technique from!"
Moreover, blood transfusions are a highly dangerous procedure with a five-out-of-ten chance of survival; few would dare to attempt it. The magistrate's son wasn't poisoned; the medicine he took simply required blood as a catalyst.
She is adept at observing other people's micro-expressions, and of course, she is also good at hiding her own.
Therefore, his expression was natural and flawless.
Wan Yuting was somewhat disappointed, and frowned as he asked again, "Miss Lu, could you make a trip to another place? My friend here is asking for two thousand taels to find a famous doctor. If you can cure him, you will receive ten thousand taels, enough for you to open another large workshop..."
"No way! I don't have such big ambitions. A workshop would just drain me dry."
“Miss Lu, please consider this. My friend has extensive business connections. Getting in touch with him would be very helpful for you in the future.”
"It will be helpful to you too, right?"
Yes, Wan Yuting didn't deny it, but this was a good thing for everyone, so why was Lu Qingqing so resistant? Or did she dislike him?
Wan Yuting was puzzled.
Lu Qingqing didn't want to say more; she wouldn't go no matter what she was told.
She took out a piece of paper and wrote down a simple prescription for detoxification to get rid of him.
"I'm really not good at detoxification, but you can try this prescription for now."
"Thank you, Miss Lu."
Wan Yuting quickly took it, carefully folded it, and put it in his arms.
"Qingqing—" came a clear, gentle call, seemingly filled with affection and dew.
It sounds really good.
Xu Rui's voice is good enough to be a voice actor.
"Miss Lu, I'll take my leave now."
Upon seeing Xu Rui approach, Wan Yuting bowed and left.
"Qingqing, I think you gave him something just now?"
Lu Qingqing watched Wan Yuting's retreating figure and hummed in response.
"I gave him a plane ticket."
