Chapter 555 -555, Asking Someone for Help (5 updates)

Each person has their own choices.

When she became famous all over the world, perhaps no one would question her anymore.

During lunch, the guard returned.

“How did it go?”

“A Young Master of a manor; his family owns some good farmland, and several shops in the county town. After the three brothers returned, they captured the Young Mistress and beat her brutally. The Young Mistress admitted that she was the one who poisoned him!”

As the guard spoke, he paused slightly.

“That Young Mistress, barely clinging to life after the beating, showed not a hint of regret. She said that the man forced her to marry him, preventing her from staying forever with the man she truly loved…”

“The Young Master was so enraged that he coughed up blood, and gravely said, ‘If it weren’t for her nod of approval in the beginning, how could he have married her through the formal engagement process? Moreover, this Young Mistress even dallied with her former lover…'”

Xie Zhinuan imagined the scenario.

A rich young master fell in love with a girl of lesser family status, yet the girl already had a loved one. The family would not agree and, unable to refuse the affluent youth, she eventually had no choice but to marry him. The young master treated her very well, but tragically, she harbored resentment, poisoned her own husband, and even made him a cuckold.

“…”

Xie Zhinuan actually felt some sympathy for this person.

She also wanted to try if she could cure this person with the use of Spiritual Spring and medicine pills.

“Go ask them if I’m willing to write a prescription, would they be willing to give it a try!”

Before the guard could leave, someone from that household had already come.

This time it was two brothers.

Xie Zhinuan was still resting, but she met with the two of them first.

“Miss Xie!”

“…”

Xie Zhinuan looked at the man in front of her.

Not strikingly handsome, but he appeared to be gentle and honest, and most importantly, he was willing to seek medical help for his elder brother.

Some, greedy for wealth, might secretly wish for one less person when it came time to divide the inheritance.

The man respectfully saluted Xie Zhinuan, “I am Chu Yun’an. I have come especially today to ask Miss Xie to diagnose and prescribe for my elder brother!”

After Chu Yun’an finished speaking, a servant brought up a red tray.

He unveiled the red silk to show Xie Zhinuan.

It was ten ingots of silver, each weighing a tael.

Generally speaking, this was considered a very respectful gesture, as many doctors were requested to come and would receive payment only after seeing the patient.

“…” After a moment of thought, Xie Zhinuan said, “Even if I were to go, I must wait until I’ve taken care of my matters here. You go back first, or you can wait outside for me!”

Thus, Chunyu accepted the silver.

Chu Yun’an felt somewhat relieved.

They had been worried when they came that Xie Zhinuan would refuse.

Initially, the eldest brother was unwilling to have a prescription written, but after learning so many truths upon returning, he was determined to cling to life.

That despicable woman thought my brother coerced her, yet didn’t consider how well she had been treated in the Chu Family over the years. Dress, food, and living were not comparable to those of powerful and wealthy families, but at least in the Chu Family, she had it extremely good.

Brother doted on her, and even without having any children, no one spoke ill of her. Both sisters-in-law, several sisters-in-law, who would dare show her disapproval? Yet, unsatisfied, she still…

Now, my brother was still compassionate enough to spare her a lifeline, merely writing a letter of divorce for her to leave with her own dowry. The Chu Family would not allow any jewelry or items they had provided for her over the years, this was the mercy of the Chu Family, not demanding the lives of that despicable woman and her adulterous lover.

He couldn’t stand the thought of his brother dying like this, so after discussing with his family, they came to seek Xie Zhinuan, who managed to diagnose the problem just by taking his pulse.

Chu Yun’an had an intuition that Xie Zhinuan would definitely be able to cure his elder brother.

“Then I will wait outside the door for Miss Xie,” Chu Yun’an exited the shop.

He stood to one side, standing stiffly just like that.
