She handed it to Xiao Yu and said, “1 made this. There’s no problem. With your current condition, you can’t do anything. You should rest first.”
Xiao Yu accepted her kindness and drank the millet porridge and the medicine she gave him.
He trusted Su Yingxue very much.
However, he knew Su Yingxue’s intentions. “Ninth Prince hurting me was a trap set up by Fengzao Palace. I won’t hold it against you. You don’t have to worry.”
“Young Master Xiao is a reasonable person. I’m not worried about this. What I’m worried about is… No, I want to cooperate with you on another matter.”
Su Yingxue sat in front of Xiao Yu and said frankly.
“Cooperation?” Xiao Yu frowned as if he was surprised.
“1 believe Young Master Xiao has discovered your illness. 1 was unwilling to tell you about it at first.”
Xiao Yu nodded. “If you had told me directly on the day I went to the Marquis’s Manor, there would not have been such a thing in the palace. You wanted to see my aunt, so you probably wanted to tell her about my illness and let her deal with the matter of me being poisoned.”
He could not help but admire Su Yingxue’s intelligence and thoughtfulness.
If he had been told that he had been poisoned that day, he would have investigated the person who had poisoned him. The Xiao family’s head would have a bloody storm.
This would cause the Xiao family to be in turmoil.
That was why she thought that if Noble Consort Xiao were to take action, the commotion would be much smaller.
This way, she, who was treating him, and her Marquis’s Manor would not be affected by the Xiao family.
After all, the Xiao family was a huge force with complicated roots. If anything happened, she would not be able to deal with it at once.
However, the situation was different now.
“What do you want to cooperate with me for?” Xiao Yu asked her.
“The Xiao family is a merchant family. Naturally, I want to do business with Young Master Xiao.” The corners of Su Yingxue’s mouth curled up slightly.
“Other than medical skills, do you have any other skills that you are proficient in? Although the Xiao family is also involved in the pharmaceutical industry, these are not the main industries. Industries that cannot bring huge profits are not worth my effort.”
Although Xiao Yu was weak, his brain was still good.
Su Yingxue could also tell that he had exposed the nature of a businessman.
However, what she wanted to tell Xiao Yu was, “Medicine is not only a profitable industry, but it is also beneficial to oneself and the people. If the Xiao family wants to stand tall, an heir like you must have a strong body.”
Xiao Yu’s heart skipped a beat.
Su Yingxue had hit his sore spot. Or rather, it was the point that he cared about the most.
A good body was what he yearned for the most in his life.
If he could live longer, then the Xiao family would be able to prosper.
Xiao Yu’s thoughts were cleared up in an instant. He looked at Su Yingxue. “How do you want to cooperate?”
“Let the hundreds of cities in the Great Cheng Dynasty be filled with the clinic that I, Su Yingxue, and the Xiao family have cooperated to open. We will cultivate a group of outstanding doctors and solve the difficult and miscellaneous diseases in this world one by one.”
Su Yingxue’s beautiful eyes turned deep. With just this sentence, Xiao Yu agreed to her. “Deal.”
The two of them talked about their cooperation until late at night. If Xiao Yu’s body could not support it, they would have talked all night.
“There is still a long way to go. I will come and check your pulse every day. Before our cooperation begins, please take care of yourself, Young Master Xiao.”
Su Yingxue’s hand landed on Xiao Yu’s shoulder and pinched him hard.
“Yes.” Xiao Yu nodded in agreement..
