Heaven-Sent Farm Girl Builds Her Fortune And Captures His Heart-Chapter 759 - 757: Miracle

"So Miss Xichun is ill?" Madam Hua said earnestly, "Young people must take good care of their health, otherwise they’ll suffer when they’re older."

"Thank you for your concern, Madam Hua!" Xichun coughed lightly a few times and said hoarsely, "Doctor Li said it’s just a slight cold. It’ll be fine with a few doses of medicine."

"That’s good!" Madam Hua found a seat and sat down, saying to Xichun, "This cough is uncomfortable; you should rest."

Shen Qinglan looked around the room, noticing that the furnishings were very simple, just a few chairs and a table. There was a white porcelain vase on the table with some red plum blossoms in it.

It seemed clear that this Doctor Li was a refined person. 𝘧𝓇ℯ𝑒𝓌𝑒𝑏𝓃𝘰𝘷𝘦𝘭.𝒸ℴ𝓂

"The medicine is ready!" Doctor Li came over with a few doses, placing them in front of Xichun, and said, "One dose a day, boiled three times, drink in the morning, noon, and evening."

"Thank you, Doctor Li!" Xichun accepted the medicine and asked, "How much does the medicine cost?"

Doctor Li replied, "Five taels."

"Five taels?" Xichun was taken aback and instinctively grasped her purse. "I didn’t bring that much today, only three taels. May I deliver the rest later?"

Doctor Li nodded, "That’s fine."

Shen Qinglan took out a piece of silver from her purse and handed it to Doctor Li, saying, "No need to defer payment."

"Miss!" Xichun looked at her with furrowed brows.

Shen Qinglan raised an eyebrow, "Why? You’re part of our Shen Family. Can’t I cover these five taels for you?"

"That’s not what I meant, it’s just..." Xichun said, "I receive a monthly allowance of three taels. I just came in a hurry today and forgot to bring it."

Doctor Li looked at Shen Qinglan with a furrowed brow, "This young lady looks familiar."

Madam Hua laughed, "Could it not be familiar? When Miss Third was sick, you were constantly summoned to check on her."

"Which family does this lady belong to?" Doctor Li asked with suspicion.

Shen Qinglan clasped her hands and bowed, "I am Shen Qinglan."

"Shen Qinglan?" Doctor Li suddenly realized, "The Third Miss of the Second Shen Household?"

Since Shen Qinglan’s recovery, Doctor Li hadn’t seen her again, but news of her affairs often reached him through the villagers.

Her miraculous recovery indeed shocked him, as Shen Qinglan wasn’t just mentally challenged due to exposure but was born that way.

With acquired ailments, one can trace back the cause and find a remedy, but congenital ones are almost always deemed incurable.

In Doctor Li’s eyes, Shen Qinglan was nothing short of a miracle.

Shen Qinglan nodded, "Yes, it’s me!"

Doctor Li said, "May I take your pulse?"

Shen Qinglan raised her eyebrows but did not refuse, obediently stepping forward to let Doctor Li take her pulse.

No one knows how long it took until Doctor Li finally released her hand, pondered a moment, and said, "Your constitution is much stronger than before."

"That’s natural!" Lian Qiu said, "Our lady is skilled in martial arts."

"I see!" Doctor Li nodded and smiled, "Practicing martial arts is good; it strengthens the body."

Despite saying that, the perplexity and amazement in Doctor Li’s eyes did not lessen in the slightest.

Shen Qinglan thought if it weren’t for the limitations of ancient times, Doctor Li might have taken her to study thoroughly.

She clasped her hands and bowed again to Doctor Li, "Since nothing seems amiss, we’ll take our leave now!"

Doctor Li stroked his beard and nodded, "Go on."

Shen Qinglan led the two young maidservants and performed a salute before turning to leave.
