Wu Jinyan held her hand and shook her head seriously. “Yingxue, you can’t do this. 1 can’t take so much money from you. When Thousand-Jiao Pavilion is running smoothly, even a 10% share is not a small amount.”
Su Yingxue let go of her hand and smiled. “10% isn’t a small amount, so 50% is a lot for me. Besides, 1 don’t know how to do business. Manager Qi is the one running the clinic, and I’m only responsible for treating patients. Manager Qi is already exhausted from running a clinic, let alone you, sister. Besides, Thousand-Jiao Pavilion isn’t an ordinary shop. With you there, it’s still my eyes, isn’t it?”
Wu Jinyan thought about it for a moment. Su Yingxue was right. The Thousand-Jiao Pavilion, being a gathering place for women, could indeed be her eyes, helping to overcome many difficulties.
With this understanding, Wu Jinyan accepted the adjusted profit-sharing ratio without objections.
Perhaps to make her feel at ease, Su Yingxue added, “In the early stages of my investment, there’s still a portion from my brother. Although we’re siblings, we still need to keep accounts straight. 1’11 allocate my brother’s share to your account. You and your husband can figure it out.”
“You! I’ll teach you a lesson!”
Wu Jinyan, graceful and charming, felt both embarrassed and shy dealing with Su Yingxue’s playful banter. She really wanted to scold her properly.
Lin Sisi jumped between the two of them, and the three girls laughed and played for quite a while.
However, Wu Jinyan’s reminder did weigh on Su Yingxue’s mind.
Since Liu Shulan had gone to Wu Jinyan’s Thousand-Jiao Pavilion, it didn’t make sense for her not to come to Su Yingxue’s clinic.
However, what methods would she use…
The next morning, shortly after the clinic opened, all the patients ran out.
Su Yingxue heard the commotion and came out. Manager Qi covered his mouth and nose and stopped her. “Miss, it’s too smelly. You’d better not go! Dr. Qin has already gone to see the patient.”
“What kind of patients could cause this?” Su Yingxue frowned.
“The patient has ulcers all over the body, continuous vomiting, and a foul smell. The odor is just too overwhelming. Miss, don’t get affected by it.” Manager Qi pushed Su Yingxue into her treatment room again, afraid that she might get nauseated.
However, Su Yingxue didn’t vomit. He found it somewhat unbearable and ended up retching in the backyard.
As the owner of the clinic, Su Yingxue still went to take a look.
Before she reached the door of treatment room number one, she sensed a repugnant smell. She subconsciously covered her mouth and nose. The smell was really unbearable.
She stood at the door and looked. Dr. Qin was applying medicine to the patient, but the patient kept vomiting. Dr. Qin, with many years of medical experience, couldn’t help but show a pained expression.
Su Yingxue covered her mouth and nose and went out to make a few masks.
She threaded fine strings through a cotton cloth, creating two earloops for the masks to hand on the face and block some of the smells.
This was something she had seen in her mother’s letter, along with another medical item called gloves.
After she had prepared everything, she got someone to send it to Qin Ming.
When Qin Ming’s apprentice came back and told her, Dr. Qin was on the verge of tears, thanking her profusely.
Su Yingxue smiled at first, but when she asked Manager Qi about the patient’s condition, her smile faded.
“This person seems to have some unknown disease. As soon as he came in, he vomited in the hall. His entire body was covered in rashes and pustules, and some were festering on the skin, forming patches of ulcers. It looked disgusting, but the worst part was that he kept vomiting, and the vomit was extremely foul-smelling! Dr. Qin applied some ointment and administered medicinal soup to him, and now he’s bathing and changing clothes..”
