She tilted her head slightly, her gaze earnest and steadfast as she looked directly at Doctor Su and said, “Doctor Su, please forgive my boldness. Just now, I saw you treat a middle-aged man who claimed that excessive sexual activity had led to his physical weakness. You prescribed him Rehmannia, Cornelian Cherry, yam, Poria, peony bark, alisma, and Schisandra to nourish the kidney and boost his energy. These ingredients are indeed top-notch choices, and if his condition was purely due to kidney qi deficiency, it would undoubtedly be the most appropriate selection.”
Upon hearing this, Doctor Su’s expression changed slightly, and a flicker of confusion crossed his eyes, clearly filled with anticipation for what Su Yu was about to reveal.
He leaned forward slightly, listening intently, waiting for this seemingly ordinary woman to unveil some medical mystery unknown to others.
Su Yu continued, “However, I noticed from the sidelines that the middle-aged man’s tongue was red with a white coating, and during the conversation, he mentioned that he often felt a sense of fullness in his chest and flanks. Taking these symptoms into account, I believe his condition is not simply due to excessive indulgence, but points toward a disorder of flaccidity. In terms of treatment, it should focus on soothing the liver, relieving depression, and balancing yin and yang.”
After listening, Doctor Su was speechless, his eyes, marked with the traces of time, widened as if he couldn’t believe that this seemingly ordinary woman possessed such a profound understanding of medical skills.
Her words were clear and logical, impeccable in their reasoning, far from being unfounded speculation.
He couldn’t help but doubt himself, wondering if indeed his own medical skills were deficient.
Seeing Doctor Su deep in self-reflection, Su Yu’s heart filled with compassion, and she consoled in a gentle tone, “Perhaps it was because the nature of his condition involved personal privacy, and the patient was too embarrassed to speak the truth, leading him to deliberately mislead you. After all, no one wants to expose their private matters in public, especially in front of strangers.”
“Right, right, right, it must be so!”
Doctor Su felt a weight lift from his shoulders, nodding repeatedly as the tension and doubt on his face gradually subsided, replaced by a sense of relief and gratitude.
“That fellow wouldn’t tell the truth and just made up a symptom, and you could only prescribe based on his description!”

However, Su Yu didn’t stop there, she earnestly shifted her tone and added, “Nevertheless, in practicing medicine and conducting diagnoses, while the patient’s complaints are indeed important, inspection, listening, questioning, and pulse-taking are also indispensable. Every doctor should treat each case with precision, observe carefully, and analyze comprehensively to arrive at the most accurate diagnosis. I hope Doctor Su will be more cautious and meticulous in the future. Please excuse my frankness today, farewell!”
After speaking, Su Yu bowed slightly, her demeanor graceful yet amiable, and walked away briskly.
Her silhouette appeared particularly upright under the sunlight, exuding a detached serenity and resoluteness that was deeply memorable.
Doctor Su watched her receding figure, his heart filled with a mix of emotions.
In a low voice, he asked Yuan Feng, the attendant at his side, “Yuan Feng, did she… did she say I was careless in my diagnosis?”
Yuan Feng pondered for a moment, nodded, and affirmed, “It seems so!”
Doctor Su was startled. He had studied medical skills from a young age, devoting twenty to thirty years to the craft.
His master had praised him for his exceptional talent, and everyone spoke highly of his medical skills.
Since setting up his own Medical Hall, his exquisite medical skills had earned him the reputation of “Miracle Doctor,” and no one had ever accused him of a careless misdiagnosis.
Now, however, he was taken aback and deeply stirred to be reprimanded by a seemingly young woman.
He understood that this was a warning to himself as well as an awakening of the initial heart of a healer, reminding him to maintain a humble and reverent heart towards medical practice and patients, no matter when and where.
Yuan Feng stared at his master, Doctor Su’s face, which alternated between gloominess and confusion, and keenly sensed the pain and self-reproach deep in his master’s heart.
He gently patted his master’s shoulder, his tone both gentle and firm, “Master, you need not be too hard on yourself. Niu Dali is reckless, often disregarding medical principles and running here every other day, adamant that he has overindulged and needs to replenish his kidney qi, yet he refuses to allow you to inquire about his condition or take his pulse for a diagnosis. You can only helplessly prescribe according to his demands. This isn’t due to a lack of precision in your own medical skills, but rather Niu Dali’s stubborn beliefs, refusing to accept your professional guidance.”
Upon hearing this, Doctor Su’s eyes flickered with a complex expression. He sighed deeply as if lamenting the ignorance and blindness of the world, “Alas! Although that’s true, I deeply understand that as a doctor, I should dedicate myself to saving lives and alleviating suffering, and pursue ever greater precision in my study of medicine. That woman could discern the cause of illness at a glance, her medical prowess is commendable. In contrast, my insufficient knowledge led me to be led by the nose by a patient, a true disgrace for any healer.”
His words revealed deep self-examination and reflection.
“Yuan Feng,” Doctor Su looked at his disciple with a resolute gaze, “go quickly and bring me all my medical texts, I want to go through them again to remedy the deficiencies in my medical practice, and ensure that such an incident never happens again.”
Meanwhile, Su Yu was unaware that her unintended yet kind advice had deeply touched Doctor Su’s heart, like the nurturing spring rain, pushing him to decide to revisit the medical canons, to delve into his studies, and to enhance his medical skills.
Night quietly descended, the noisy marketplace gradually returned to calm as people began packing up their stalls, ready to finish a day’s hard work.
Su Yu wove through the crowds, hurriedly purchasing two steaming buns to sate her hunger.
The two juicy, fragrant buns only cost her four wen money, and she couldn’t help feeling quietly pleased that her finances now seemed more abundant.
However, faced with the single, exceedingly precious Red Ganoderma in her hand, Su Yu weighed her options over and over.
The space in her basket was crammed full with various items, and she additionally bought some sweets, beloved by children, imagining the bright joy that would shine from young Xixi’s eyes upon seeing these treats.
With everything prepared, Su Yu resolutely headed towards the exit of the marketplace, silently praying that she would encounter the kind-hearted Sister Xie who could help carry the basket back for her and also pass a message to Jiang Ziling.
As she hurried along, the ox cart of Uncle Li suddenly came into view not far ahead, already filled with villagers on their way home.
Xie Qifen caught sight of Su Yu and immediately raised her arm, calling out warmly, “Ah, there’s Ziling’s wife, come quick, we’ve been waiting for you!”
Hearing this, Su Yu approached the ox cart quickly, her face showing a hint of confusion, “You were waiting for me?”
“Of course, we’re travelling the same way, so naturally we should go together, come on up.”
Xie Qifen replied with a beaming smile, her words filled with sincerity and care.
The surrounding villagers nodded in agreement, smiling, a stark contrast to the indifference they had shown Su Yu earlier that afternoon.
Su Yu nodded gratefully, slid off her basket from her back, and handed it over to Xie Qifen, detailing, “Sister, I need to make a quick trip to the city for an urgent matter. The basket contains my belongings; I would be grateful if you could deliver it to Ziling and tell him I should be able to return by tomorrow.”
