Chapter 166: The first release is lavish, indeed lavish. ...
Wen Yu frowned, feeling that something was wrong.
I’m sorry…
Sorry?
No wonder these words sound so familiar. Aren’t these the words that Master Wen repeated that night while holding the painting of the woman?
Could his madness really be related to the woman in the painting?
As her thoughts turned, Wen Yu calmed down and looked up at Master Wen who was staring at her infatuatedly.
Without the domineering aura and compelling gaze from before, he now seemed to be the real and simple Wen Yanli again.
Maybe the person just now was really possessed by an evil spirit?
Thousands of thoughts and guesses surged in Wen Yu's mind at once, leaving her overwhelmed.
"Don't blame me, Madam Wenyu...Yanli..." Madam Wen saw that the situation was not good and quickly tried to make amends.
Of course she knew that even if her son Yanli was crazy, he should not treat a girl like Madam Wenyu in this way. It was really rude and offensive.
But now Yanli's words and actions are out of control, how can he understand these principles?
In the past, Yanli was a well-educated, polite man, but now he is crazy and has no dignity at all.
Mrs. Wen felt a sharp pain in her heart. If she could have endured it before, she could not bear it anymore.
Two lines of tears fell, and there was no need to say any more apologies.
Seeing this, Wen Yu suppressed his speculation and shook his head to Madam Wen in a soothing manner.
Then, a smile played on Wen Yu's lips, her face full of innocence, as if she didn't care at all about Wen Yanli's offense. She quickly followed him and replied crisply, "How could that be? I won't be angry with you."
"Yes! I knew you would come to see me." Wen Yanli answered softly, his tone not as pressing as before.
Then he half-closed his eyes, stopped talking, and seemed to be lost in a long memory.
Song Linsheng lowered his eyes slightly and glanced at Master Wen's face indifferently. He saw that after hearing Wen Yu's words, he finally stayed still and calmed down.
Xiaoyu's words seemed...very effective.
Song Linsheng turned and looked at Wen Yu, who nodded slightly and raised her chin towards the inner room, indicating that he should go in quickly.
Song Linsheng agreed, holding on tightly and carrying Master Wen into the house.
Madam Wen and Wen Yu were two steps behind, but they hurried to catch up.
The room is filled with curling green smoke and the smell of summer fragrance that repels insects is refreshing.
Wen Yu sniffed. She always felt that this fragrance was inexplicably familiar.
But before she could think about it, Song Linsheng had already placed the person steadily on the couch.
"Madam Wenyu—" he called softly.
Wen Yu put aside the inexplicable feeling in his heart, took out a needle bag from his sleeve, and walked towards the couch.
Wen Yanli's phoenix eyes were looking at Wen Yu who was approaching slowly, as if he was looking at something through her.
Song Linsheng frowned and couldn't help but sigh. What was he arguing with a patient for?
Wen Yu recalled in his mind the important points that his master had written in his mind, the force and technique of inserting the needle, and the possible reactions that the patient might have after the acupuncture.
The more she thought about it, the more mysterious it seemed.
How come her master happened to send her a message right after she encountered the incident with Master Wen?
It was as if... the master was right beside her.
Wen Yu frowned and sat down in front of the couch. She opened the needle bag with both hands. Thirty-six silver needles were neatly arranged, emitting cold light that was hard to ignore.
But the master is far away, how come he knows everything about her...
Wen Yu took out the silver needles from the needle bag one by one, recalling the areas that his master had instructed him to pay special attention to, while giving acupuncture to Master Wen.
Perhaps, because the master is a true god? Even if he is not in Jiangyang, he can see through every blade of grass and every tree in Jiangyang?
Wen Yu was a little confused, but she felt that her explanation was very reasonable.
When she returned to the Eastern Heaven, she would definitely ask her master for clarification. She didn't know what kind of unique technique this was, or if it was some kind of immortal secret manual, but no matter what it was, she would ask her master for it.
The master loves her and will definitely not refuse.
Song Linsheng and Madam Wen on the side looked intently, their gazes following the silver needle in Wen Yu's hand.
Finally, when the last silver needle fell, Young Master Wen also calmed down.
There was no noise or crazy talk.
Wen Yanli just lay there quietly, his eyes looking at the beams peacefully.
Although he was not completely sober, his foolish look gradually disappeared.
Just as Master said, Wen Yanli will gradually recover.
She tempered the silver needle with some spiritual power, and it was quite effective, Wen Yu thought to herself.
"Young Master Wen?" Wen Yu stretched out a hand and waved it in front of Wen Yanli's eyes, then waited for his response.
Wen Yanli rolled his eyes upon hearing this, and after several twists and turns, his gaze finally focused on Wen Yu. Unfortunately, he was unable to move his entire body, so he could only softly say, "Who are you?"
Don't you recognize yourself? Wen Yu raised her eyebrows.
It’s a good thing that you don’t recognize her. If you “recognize” her, you might mistake her for someone else.
"As for me, I am the Bodhisattva Guanyin who saves people from suffering." Wen Yu was in a playful mood and did not answer directly.
She turned around and stood up briskly, calling out to Madam Wen behind her: "Madam Wen, come and take a look—"
Madam Wen's tears were still wet, but her brows were already beaming with joy. She approached the bed with doubt in her heart and called out cautiously, "Yan Li?"
"Mother, dear..." Wen Yanli spoke with difficulty, and his speech was not as fluent as when he was crazy before.
Wen Yu raised an eyebrow, it was really strange.
The acupuncture techniques given by the master are supposed to be used to ward off evil spirits and avoid disasters. Now that Master Wen has found them to be effective, it only means that there is indeed an evil spirit in him.
But she had just looked at it and couldn't tell what it was.
Wen Yu frowned and thought hard, but she didn't notice Song Linsheng beside her looking down at her.
The tenderness and admiration in his eyes almost overflowed, but he remained silent and did not interrupt Wen Yu's thoughts.
"Yanli! Yanli, are you awake? Yanli!" Madam Wen exclaimed, her words revealing a joy she couldn't conceal. "Yanli? Yanli? Yanli, what's wrong with you?"
But the joy did not last long, and it took a sharp turn, turning into panic in the face of the unknown.
Wen Yu tapped his knuckles lightly, not feeling any difference in the situation before him.
Song Linsheng, who was beside him, looked up and saw that Master Wen on the bed had only been awake for a moment before falling into a coma again.
He leaned close to Wenyu's shoulder and asked softly, "Xiaoyu?"
Wen Yu shook her head and patted Song Linsheng's forearm, signaling him not to panic.
She knew from the beginning that Mr. Wen would not be awake for long, so she quickly stood up and moved aside so that Madam Wen could take a closer look at him.
It was only to be expected that he would fall into a coma again.
Wen Yu clapped his hands and stood where he was without moving forward.
"Madam Wenyu! Madam Wenyu?" Madam Wen, who was completely unaware of the situation, suddenly turned around and screamed out loud, with a look of surprise and panic on her face, looking at Wenyu in a daze.
"Don't be afraid, Madam Wen. Your son has just been exhausted from being in a listless state for the past few days. Naturally, he can't hold on now that he has just woken up." Wen Yu explained slowly.
"So? That's good." Mrs. Wen's eyelashes trembled. After several times of anxiety, she finally calmed down.
Wen Yu walked around Madam Wen, sat down in front of the couch again, took out the silver needles one by one, and then rolled up the needle bag.
These were no ordinary silver needles, and she wondered where her master had found them. But someone like her master could easily throw away ancient magical instruments or rare elixirs, so she had to carefully preserve these silver needles.
"He may not be able to walk in the next half month, so he needs to be taken good care of." Wen Yu explained carefully.
As for how to raise it——
Wen Yu took out the medical prescription that had been prepared long ago from his sleeve.
How else could they say her master was a master of strategy, able to win battles from afar? He'd even prepared the medical prescriptions she'd need later.
Song Linsheng looked quietly at the letter in Wen Yu's hand, thinking that this must be the letter from Brother Xiaoyu that Abai mentioned.
"This is the prescription my brother wrote down. Take the medicine according to the prescribed dosage and boil it in snow water. I guarantee that your son will be healthy and worry-free." Wen Yu said this with a solemn oath, and there was no lack of pride in his tone.
According to Madam Wen, the title of her "brother" has now spread throughout the entire Jiangyang Prefecture, and everyone in the south and north of the Yangtze River knows it.
Then she could just use this title to her advantage.
"Ah? Thank you, Madam Wenyu, and thank you, brother, for your help!" Mrs. Wen was surprised and happy, and burst into tears of gratitude.
She really didn't expect that Madam Wen Yu would actually ask for the prescription from the young master of the Wen family for her son Yanli's matter.
Although Chen Mian's earlier affairs were kept secret, she had heard about them.
After serving under Lord Jia, he is still intact. It is definitely not just because he is strong and thick-skinned. He must have received help from an expert.
After much inquiry, I learned that there was a rejuvenating expert like Young Master Wen, a living Hua Tuo.
Now with Madam Wen Yu's acupuncture and the prescription prescribed by Young Master Wen, her son Yan Li's recovery is just around the corner.
Mrs. Wen was overjoyed and stood up to take the prescription from Wen Yu's hand.
Just as he was about to reach it, Wen Yu withdrew his hand.
"Madam Wenyu?" Madam Wen called out in a puzzled and somewhat bewildered tone.
"Mrs. Wen, they say there's no such thing as a free lunch."
Wen Yu weighed the prescription in her hand. Although it was just a very thin piece of paper, she and Madam Wen both knew its importance.
"Since you want the prescription my brother prescribed, you must exchange something with me."
As soon as the words came out, Wen Yu laughed in his heart.
However, a few days ago, when her master said this, she was still full of confusion and only begged her master to help rescue Chen Mian.
But now she is following suit and doing business with Madam Wen.
They are truly from the same lineage, no difference.
Wen Yu sighed inwardly, but her expression remained unchanged.
When these words were spoken, even Madam Wen, who had been active in Jiangyang for many years, was stunned for a moment.
Through Madam Wen Yu's face, she seemed to see what she looked like when she was young.
But after a moment, Madam Wen quickly adjusted her mood. She understood what was happening and immediately replied, "Of course, of course."
Madam Wen looked around and found herself still in Yanli's Lanfeng Water Pavilion. However, it didn't affect anything. After a brief calculation, she said, "Madam Wenyu, don't worry. I will pay you a hundred times the consultation fee."
"As for other things, whether it's gold, silver, treasures, antiques, calligraphy, or paintings, anything that belongs to the Wen Mansion, Madam Wen Yu may take it."
Mrs. Wen was very generous and seemed not to be afraid at all that Wen Yu would turn her Wen house upside down.
"Madam Wenyu, just tell me what you want." After saying that, Madam Wen stared at the prescription in Wenyu's hand with burning eyes, not caring at all about what conditions she would prescribe.
It’s very generous. It’s really very generous.
Wen Yu frowned secretly, wondering which one would be better, the Wen residence or the Song residence.
She turned her head to look at Song Linsheng beside her and winked at him playfully.
Without even saying anything, Song Linsheng immediately understood what Wen Yu meant. He lowered his eyes, smiled faintly, and shook his head helplessly.
There is endless pampering between his brows.
Perhaps the best days are like these, she is making noise and he is laughing.
Wen Yu coughed lightly and said sternly, "Madam Wen, what are you talking about? If it's just for gold and silver, with my brother and I's medical skills, wouldn't it be faster to open a clinic?"
By then, patients will come in droves because of her reputation. Why would she lack a hundred times the medical fee?
"What's more, being able to treat Master Wen is a coincidence and a meritorious deed."
This is the truth. Her master told her to accumulate more merits in the mortal world in preparation for her ascension.
Now that she has saved Young Master Wen, it is of great benefit to her. Why should she ask for gold, silver and other valuables?
"Then..." Madam Wen was gradually becoming confused. She looked at Wen Yu hesitantly and asked her, "Then, Madam Wen Yu, do you want to..."
"Simple." Wen Yu raised an eyebrow and glanced at Song Linsheng beside him, revealing a triumphant smile, "I just wanted to ask Madam Wen about something."
Song Linsheng pursed his lips slightly. He knew that every time Xiaoyu showed such a cunning smile, she must have set a trap and was waiting for the prey to jump in.
Mrs. Wen's brows relaxed, and she was obviously relieved.
She was not afraid that Madam Wen Yu would make any strange requests, but she was afraid that Madam Wen Yu would make requests that she could not meet.
Now that he was just asking her for some information, what was the big deal? The Wen family had countless retainers and many informants. Even if she didn't know something, they could just send someone out to find out.
Thinking of this, Madam Wen's eyes softened, "Madam Wenyu, just ask me. I will tell you everything I know."
Wen Yu curled her lips, raised the prescription in her hand, and smiled with great satisfaction, "Are you serious?"
Upon hearing this, Madam Wen nodded hurriedly, "Of course, of course."
She turned to look at Song Linsheng and continued, "As long as it doesn't violate the rules, I will answer truthfully."
Song Linsheng lowered his eyes and smiled. Although Madam Wen said this, according to the meaning of her words, she might be able to do it for Xiaoyu even if it was against the law.
"Alright!" Wen Yu had been waiting for this, and immediately responded, "I just want to ask you, who is the person your eldest son is referring to when he says 'I've let you down'?"
After Wen Yu said this, Song Linsheng became as steady as a rock. He knew from the beginning that some questions had to be asked clearly.
But Mrs. Wen obviously did not feel so well.
These words were like a summer thunder, suddenly ringing in Mrs. Wen's heart, and the heat in her eyes instantly turned into panic.
I originally wanted to invite Madam Wen Yu to come to my house for a medical consultation today because the old immortal calculated that Yan Li would be able to remain conscious today, making it the most suitable time to seek medical treatment and medicine.
But I never expected that Yanli would suddenly go crazy and say a lot of things he shouldn't have said.
Now that Madam Wenyu has heard it, it's no wonder she would ask about it specifically.
Mrs. Wen looked embarrassed, her brows drooped, her eyelashes trembled helplessly, and she finally chose to conceal the truth.
"Madam Wenyu, what are you talking about? Yanli was so crazy and his words were so vague that I didn't hear him clearly... Did he really say that?"
Wen Yu patiently listened to Madam Wen's words, then raised his eyebrows and glanced at Song Linsheng beside him.
She was not the only one who heard what Young Master Wen said. If Madam Wen wanted to deny it at this time, she would probably not be able to do so.
"It's true, Linsheng can testify to it." Song Linsheng immediately understood and guaranteed it seriously.
Mrs. Wen's eyebrows lowered even more and her eyes drooped.
In fact, there was no need for Lord Song to act as a guarantor. She certainly knew that it was true, but...how could she say it out loud?
For a moment, Madam Wen refused to say anything, and Wen Yu and Song Linsheng could only wait and see what would happen.
Even as the smoke in the room grew thinner and thinner, and the summer fragrance grew sparser, Madam Wen still showed no intention of answering.
Wen Yu shrugged nonchalantly, immediately slipped the prescription into his sleeve, and shook his head. "Since Madam Wen is unwilling to do this business, Lord Song and I will take our leave."
After saying this, Wen Yu turned around and left without any hesitation. After all, the time of the "famous doctor" was very precious. Instead of wasting time here with Madam Wen, it would be better to go out and treat more patients.
Song Linsheng's expression remained unchanged as he followed Wen Yu. He always put Xiaoyu's wishes first.
"Hey! Madam Wenyu! Madam Wenyu, please wait a moment. Sir Song, please stay!"
What suddenly sounded behind her was naturally Mrs. Wen's impatient voice. She hurriedly caught up with Wen Yu and Song Linsheng, and her words were full of attempts to keep them.
That was the prescription that saved her son Yanli's life. She absolutely couldn't let Madam Wenyu take it away like that!
Madam Wen's eyebrows were raised and her eyes were drooping. She was really confused. "Madam Wen Yu——"
Wen Yu paused at the sound, but didn't turn around. She wanted to see what Madam Wen was so determined to conceal when it came to Wen Yanli's life and property. What could have caused her to not even care about her "only child"?
"Oh my!" Mrs. Wen thought about it for a while, her eyebrows almost twisted with tears, but in the end she had no choice but to compromise.
"Don't worry, Madam Wenyu. I will tell you the truth."
Madam Wen raised her hands in front of her, as if to comfort Wen Yu.
Wen Yu turned his back and raised the corners of his lips where Madam Wen couldn't see. Since he had said this, he was afraid it would be done.
She turned to look at Song Linsheng beside her, and turned back to stand still with him, "Everything depends on Madam Wen's decision."
Wen Yu held the prescription in her palm and raised it to Madam Wen's eyes.
She left the choice to Mrs. Wen.
"Oh..." Mrs. Wen looked at the medical prescription right at her fingertips and couldn't help but sigh.
She couldn't just ignore Yanli's life for that matter.
How can fame compare to life?
"Yanli has a childhood sweetheart. They grew up together..." Madam Wen's gaze darkened, as if lost in memories. "They used to be inseparable, but after Yanli won the third place in the imperial examination and became insane, they haven't been around much."
"The person Yan Li is talking about must be her..."
Madam Wen paused, as if she had thought of something, and continued, "It's just that Yan Li was always acting crazy later, so I didn't pay much attention to what he said."
"Now that I think about it, it's been a long time since I last saw her..."
He won the third place in the imperial examination and became insane.
Wen Yu and Song Linsheng exchanged glances at each other. Which came first, this or Madam Wen's words about severing ties with Xiao Qingmei? Which came later?
