Chapter 527: Chapter 527: People, She Can Cure Chapter 527: Chapter 527: People, She Can Cure …
Within the Elder Princess’ Mansion, word arrived that Lin Caisang was visiting. The Elder Princess quickly dressed and hurried to the front yard, only to find her ingratiate herself into a lively conversation with her grandnephew. She nodded approvingly at the sight.
“Miss Lin, what brings you here at this time?”
She advanced and sat down, asking Lin Caisang.
“Aunt, Miss Lin came because of matters concerning General Zhi’s home.” Eldest Prince answered on Lin Caisang’s behalf.
Mentioning Zhi Lingyang, the Elder Princess initially froze, then, laughed and shook her head.
“As for Senior Madam Zhi of General Zhi’s household, she is indeed commendable. But that Junior Madam…her temperament is quite unstable. Zhi Lingyang has indeed sought my assistance before now. However, whether to treat or not to treat is ultimately up to you, Miss Lin. I am unable to make that decision for you.”
She turned her gaze to Lin Caisang, saying so.
And indeed, the words of that Junior Madame Zhi, Jin Lele, were in fact inappropriate. Although she didn’t hear them firsthand, Nanny Bai would not carelessly spread rumors.
The mere fact that Nanny Bai saw fit to warn her, meant that Junior Madam Zhi had definitely been rather harsh.
“There were many who had come to the Zeng Family seeking my medical assistance. It was only after hearing from Elder Zeng about the situation at Grand General Zhi’s residence, and that Senior Madam Zhi was injured due to fighting wars, that I softened and decided to cure her, believing that female heroes warrant respect.”
Lin Caisang began, but by the end of her explanation she shook her head, sighing.
“Who would’ve thought, that mouth on Junior Madam Zhi…it was really…incessantly pressuring me, as if healing people was as easy and casual as plucking a cabbage from a vegetable patch whenever it suits her.
Even if it was truly about vegetable planting, even that would require proper seasons. I was not prepared at all then, without a single necessary tool at hand, and I would not trust others to prepare it for me. So, I planned to treat her when I could, the next time I would come here for your follow-up consultation.
Unfortunately, that Junior Madam Zhi is just too unreasonable!”
The Elder Princess could empathize with Lin Caisang’s feelings, and the pair began to delve into the matters of the Zhi household.
The Eldest Prince, sat at the sideline, watching the exchange of words that revolved entirely around Junior Madam Zhi. He wore an expression of helplessness. He had never heard his aunt speak ill of anyone before.
This Junior Madam Zhi was truly one of a kind.
And yet, while Junior Madam Zhi could anger people to the point that they gnash their teeth in frustration, she had never done anything wicked as such.
“Aunt, now that Miss Lin has come today, why don’t you let her take your pulse?” He suggested.
“I expect, for not much longer, a representative of the Zhi residence will come to invite Miss Lin. At which time… Miss Lin, no need for you to show up directly. I’ll take care of the talking.”
Going by the meaning in Lin Caisang’s words just now, she would be willing to treat the patient. They could schedule it for tomorrow, but if that Junior Madam Zhi were to cause trouble again, should anything unexpected occur during treatment, the Zhi residence would be responsible for the consequences.
Of course, he would explain this clearly to Zhi Lingyang.
“Alright, then, I am indebted to you, Eldest Prince.” Lin Caisang nodded towards him in acknowledgement.
Sure enough, the carriages from the Zhi residence promptly arrived at the front gate of the Elder Princess’ Mansion.
After Zhi Lingyang and Jin An’an alighted from the carriage, they waited at the entrance. Watching as the gatekeeper went in to report their arrival and they were only admitted a quarter of an hour later.
