“I’ll come help tomorrow, and I’ll bring the medicine with me…” but Li Jiaya waved her hand, “They have never applied medicine before and wouldn’t know how to do it.
Besides, I’m not busy anyway…”
“Then we would be troubling Jiaya, sister,” Yang Ruxin smiled.
“No trouble at all…” Li Jiaya said coyly, waving her hand.
“I’ll tell you, this medicine is a secret injury remedy personally concocted by my father… The last time our mule injured its leg and bled a lot, it healed after just two applications, and it didn’t even leave a scar.”
The corners of Yang Ruxin’s mouth twitched slightly as she thought to herself: Can a mule really be compared to a human?
However, she didn’t argue and instead nodded vigorously.
“That works,” Li Yi said with a chuckle, “Jiaya has been helping me since she was young, she’s pretty much half a doctor herself.” Then he glanced at Yang Ruxin, “Dani, come here, Uncle Li will take your pulse again.”
Yang Ruxin did not refuse and obediently extended her right wrist.
Li Yi laid his fingers on it, closed his eyes for a moment, and when he opened them, disbelief tinted his voice, “I didn’t expect your body to recover so well.”
Yang Ruxin arched her eyebrows slightly, “Does that mean I’m alright now, Uncle Li?”
“I was worried you had hurt your head in the fall, and that there could be some complications, but it looks like there’s no need to worry now,” Li Yi chuckled.
“Judging by your pulse, there’s not a single problem.
I had thought of prescribing you a few more days’ worth of medicine, but it seems that won’t be necessary.”
“Perhaps the heavens thought we mother and daughters were pitiable and let me heal quickly, otherwise…” Yang Ruxin glanced at the unconscious Xun Hui, “what would we do with this frail little one?”
“You have a point,” Li Yi sighed, “Alright then, if you need anything in the future, feel free to come to Uncle Li.”
“Thank you, Uncle Li,” Yang Ruxin said gratefully and then took a copper coin from Sanni’s hand, “Uncle Li, this is for the consultation…”
“Never mind that…” Li Yi waved off.
“How could I not mind?” Yang Ruxin went over and placed the copper coin in Li Yi’s box, “You already charge too little, and it wouldn’t sit right with me not to pay.
Besides, Grandpa had given the money for the medicine, and for now, I can only owe the consultation fee.
But if I earn money in the future, I will definitely repay Uncle Li double.”
“You girl…” Li Yi couldn’t help but laugh, but he didn’t refuse any longer, “Then Uncle Li will wait for your heartfelt thanks… But tonight, your mother might get a fever again.
Then just use alcohol to rub her palms, soles, and armpits…”
Yang Ruxin nodded again.
Li Jiaya, however, looked down and sneered disdainfully to herself, thinking that the girls from the Yang Family sure like to boast, one claims not to like sweets, the other talks of repaying double.
With their family’s situation, how long would that take?
But because her parents had taught her not to speak carelessly, she only grumbled in her heart without saying a word aloud.
After Li Yi and his daughter had left, Yang Ruxin and the others finally relaxed, and found themselves with some spare time, while their stomachs began to rumble.
Yang Ruxin frowned and looked up but saw several little ones all trying hard to keep their heads down and immediately sighed, “Hungry?”
“No… not hungry…” Erni quickly shook her head.
Yang Rufeng licked his lips and said, “I’ll just drink some water…” and then attempted to leave.
“Come back,” Yang Ruxin inexplicably burst with irritation, “If you’re hungry, you’re hungry.
Your stomachs are rumbling, and you still say you’re not?”
