Defrosting The Cold Young Master-Chapter 595 - 598 Fifth Brother is really lucky
Chapter 595: Chapter 598 Fifth Brother is really lucky
“When my father became aware of this, he was very excited and immediately ordered people to investigate the whereabouts of this renowned traditional medicine practitioner, in hopes of inviting him over to treat Qingqing.”
“However, the person who was sent to gather information told my father that Scholar Yue had already passed away, leaving behind a granddaughter who is a doctor and inheritor of his skills…”
Gu Junzhu raised his eyebrow: “Yue Yaer?”
Chi Yu nodded, “Yes, it’s Yue Yaer. We went through lots of connections and finally found the descendant of Scholar Yue, only to find out that she signed a long-term contract with you, Fifth Brother, this morning.”
“Now she is the personal doctor of Fifth Brother’s wife; to take on any outside patient, she has to get permission from Fifth Brother and your wife, hence we came over to request you, Fifth Brother, to approve Dr. Yue to treat my younger sister.”
Gu Junzhu chuckled, “So it turns out to be Yue Yaer. Have I not just stumbled upon a treasure?”
The reason why he signed a long-term contract with Yue Yaer was because Yue Yaer had a good chat with Ye Xingbei.
Despite their short acquaintance, they get along tremendously well, as if they are “old friends at first sight,” chatting warmly as if they were sisters.
In the past, the Gu family was dominated by males, and so were the family doctors.
Now, with Ye Xiaobei, it is more convenient to have a female family doctor.
Moreover, Yue Yaer gets along so well with Ye Xingbei, so he naturally wants to help Ye Xingbei keep her around.
The contract was negotiated by Gu Chi. Gu Junzhu told Gu Chi before he went to negotiate that as long as Yue Yaer was willing to stay, money was not an issue.
When Gu Chi came back to report, he found out that the contract was at an outrageously high price.
He didn’t mind.
It’s hard to buy what his wife likes with money.
What he signed is not just a family doctor, but also a confidant who chats and eases his wife’s boredom. He’s got plenty of money, so it’s fine for the price to be a bit higher; he doesn’t care.
Now, he realized that there is a reason behind the high price.
Although he splurged money, he discovered the granddaughter of the renowned traditional medicine practitioner.
Since it can make Chi Yu come to beg, her medical skills must not be ordinary.
He’s got plenty of money, but it’s hard to come by renowned doctors.
He got a good deal.
“So, Fifth Brother wasn’t aware,” Chi Zhan said. “I heard that Fifth Brother has spent a fortune to sign a fifty-year contract with Dr. Yue. I thought Fifth Brother knew about Dr. Yue’s background and that’s why you’d pay such a high price to keep Dr. Yue.”
“No,” Gu Junzhu gave a slight smile. “The reason I signed for fifty years is because people always say that the older a doctor becomes, the richer their experience gets, and the more sophisticated their skills become. There’s no logical reason to sign for only ten or eight years, let her gain experience at my wife’s expense, and then let her go to cure other people.”
Chi Zhan: “…Fifth Brother, you’re incredibly lucky.”
“Hmm,” the Fifth Lord of Gu smirked, “I’ve always been lucky, especially when my father chose my wife for me. He simply made a casual choice, but it turned out that we both connected deeply. It was a God-given good match.”
Chi Yu, Chi Zhan: “…”
Is it appropriate to sprinkle dog food when our young sister is sick?
Chi Yu cleared his throat, “Fifth Brother, I wonder if you would mind allowing Dr. Yue to go out to treat my younger sister? As for the medical fees, that’s not a problem. Personal favors are separate from business principles. Fifth Brother has spent a large sum of money to keep Dr. Yue, it wouldn’t be appropriate for us to take advantage of that for free.”
“I have no problem,” Gu Junzhu said, “But we need to see Dr. Yue’s opinion.”
The granddaughter of the renowned traditional medicine practitioner is still so young; instead of practicing in a hospital, she signed up to be an aristocratic family’s private doctor, which is somewhat unusual.
Gu Junzhu has met quite a few well-known traditional medicine practitioners; they were mostly employed by some noble family after they got on in years, considered as a dignified way to retire.
He had never seen a second-generation of a reputable doctor in their twenties signing up to be a private family doctor.
And it’s a fifty years agreement upon signing.
This is not normal.
