When Luo Shizhong said these words, Fan Yuru kept looking at Shen Tianshu. Unfortunately, Shen Tianshu was wearing a hat, so no one could see her expression at all.
Mrs. Luo also had a tangled look on her face. She opened her mouth several times but no words came out. In the end, she couldn't help but lower her head and wipe her tears. If she could live up to her expectations and give birth to a son for the Luo family, she might have been accepted by Mr. Luo and be able to go back. Acknowledge your ancestors and return to your clan.
Shen Tianshu didn't care about the Luo family's affairs. She came here just to give Luo Qiaozhen a follow-up consultation. Now that the child was fine and prescriptions for health were prescribed, she was ready to say goodbye and leave.
Luo Shizhong hurriedly took out the silver he had prepared long ago and said: "Ms. Tong, you saved my little girl's life. This is the medical fee for you. Please accept it."
Shen Tianshu took a look and saw that a total of twenty taels of silver was an astronomical figure for an ordinary person. However, the Luo family seemed to be in a good financial situation. Both the furnishings in the house and the people in the family looked like they were from a wealthy family.
She nodded and motioned to Mingyu behind her to accept the money and said, "If I don't accept it, you won't feel at ease either."
Fan Yuru couldn't understand Mrs. Tong's methods more and more. If she really wanted to make friends with the Luo family, the best thing to do would be to refuse to accept money and use this to build a relationship.
But just now when Luo Shizhong mentioned our family, Mrs. Tong showed no reaction, and now she even accepted the medical fee. Isn't this equivalent to cutting off this road?
Could it be that he just jumped into the trap and alerted the snake?
Fan Yuru just had this idea pop up in her mind, but immediately dismissed it herself. Lady Tong couldn't possibly know who she was, so there was no way to take precautions.
After thinking about it, he actually followed Shen Tianshu's master and servant out of the gate of Luo's house and followed him to the carriage.
Shen Tianshu had no choice but to ask: "Is there something wrong, Mr. Fan?"
"Oh!" Fan Yuru came back to his senses, but his words made it difficult for anyone to notice that he had been wandering in the world just now. He said politely, "There is an elder in my family who suffered a sudden illness a few years ago and has been unconscious until now. I have visited famous doctors but there is no improvement. This time I heard that a miracle doctor like Lady Tong has emerged from Yongzhou Prefecture. I took the opportunity to see Qiaozhen in the hope of getting some advice from Lady Tong."
"I definitely don't deserve the title of miracle doctor. I'm just an ordinary doctor." Shen Tianshu said, "As for the illness of your elders, I have never seen the patient or diagnosed the pulse, so I dare not make any judgments. If it is If you really want to seek medical treatment, just bring the patient to Yongzhou Prefecture!"
After Shen Tianshu finished speaking, he stepped on the footstool and got into the carriage.
Mingyu followed closely, and then said to his eldest brother: "Let's go back to the house."
Fan Yuru stood there without moving, but the two guards he brought with him had quietly boarded Shen Tianshu's carriage.
He turned around and returned to Luo Mansion, only to see Mrs. Luo crying quietly and Luo Shizhong comforting her.
Being bumped into, Mrs. Luo turned back to the back room very embarrassed.
Fan Yuru was also very embarrassed and apologized repeatedly: "Fan was abrupt."
"I made Mr. Fan laugh. My wife is just worried about my daughter's health." Luo Shizhong asked Fan Yuru to go back to the hall and sit down and asked, "I wonder if there is any clue to what Mr. Fan is asking?"
Fan Yuru shook her head and said: "Mrs. Tong is right. Without seeing the patient, he cannot diagnose the pulse, and no doctor dares to judge casually. That's all, let's not mention this matter. I just saw Brother Luo and Mrs. Luo both looking sad, seriously. Stumped by the prescription? I wonder if Fan can help?"
"There are two medicines in the pharmacy that are very hard to find. Our Luo family does have them in stock. But Mr. Fan, you also know that the relationship between my father and I has not improved for so many years. Even if I go home for help, I will definitely still be punished.
My dad typed it out."
"No wonder Madam-in-law was so sad that she shed tears just now. Parents are most worried about their children's suffering."
Fan Yuru's family is related by marriage to the Luo family, so he came here under the pretense that an elder at home was sick and came to see Mrs. Tong's skills, so he temporarily stayed at the Luo family and had a brief contact with Mrs. Tong.
Fan Yuru had heard about Luo Shizhong's situation for a long time, and also knew how stubborn the Luo family's old man was.
"I'm not afraid of Mr. Fan's jokes. My wife is sad and sheds tears. She blames herself for not being able to add more fragrance to our Luo family after Qiaozhen. She always feels that if we could have a son, my father would have agreed to our return."
I recognize my ancestor and return to my clan."
Luo Shizhong was alone in Yongzhou Prefecture, with no relatives around him. The pressure during this period was really too great, and he had to take care of his wife's emotions all the time.
Now that I see Fan Yuru, although I don’t have much contact with him, I am still close to him through marriage.
Even though the other person was relatively young, he still couldn't help but want to spit out his bitterness.
"But you also know that my father cares about face the most. I escaped from marriage, ran away from home, and married without permission. Every step of the way I stepped on the point that made him furious. Now, after so many years, I can ignore my mother.
Contacting me and helping our couple is the limit of what he can do. Our Luo family has no shortage of children. How can the estrangement for so many years be solved by having a son?"
Luo Shizhong said very energetically before that whether he was beaten or punished by kneeling, he would definitely go back and beg his father for forgiveness.
But when he calmed down and thought about his old man's temper, Luo Shizhong immediately became paralyzed.
He knows his biological father better than anyone else. At home, he is the Supreme Emperor, and he has always been the one and only.
Now, as the patriarch of the Luo family and the patriarch of the clan, he takes rules and face more seriously than the sky. How could he be so easily impressed?
Fan Yuru's eyes lit up when he heard this, and he realized that an opportunity to contact Mrs. Tong was right in front of him, and he immediately said: "Brother Luo, no matter whether I can seek Mr. Luo's forgiveness or not, but I only have one daughter at my knees, it must be difficult for my wife.
Kan'er, why don't you ask Madam Tong to help Madam Sister-in-law take care of herself?"
One word awakens the dreamer.
Luo Shizhong was stunned for a while, then slapped his thigh and said, "Yeah, why didn't I think of that!"
Recently, all his thoughts have been on his daughter, and he has not thought about this matter at all.
In fact, the couple had quietly sought medical advice in the past two years. Mrs. Luo drank a lot of decoctions and tried acupuncture and moxibustion, but in the end they had no effect.
Fortunately, he was a free and easy person, always feeling that there was no need to force anything in his life, and his daughter Qiaozhen's health was not very good. Later, the couple gradually lost their focus and focused all their energy on taking care of their daughter.
Luo Shizhong felt extremely regretful at this time. A great opportunity was presented to him, but he did not seize it.
Mrs. Tong's whereabouts were erratic, and she took the initiative to come for follow-up consultations twice. I didn't know how to find her at all.
Fan Yuru said: "Brother Luo, please stay at home with your wife and Qiaozhen, and leave this matter to me!"
