Jiang Yi suddenly realized.
It was no wonder the doctor felt this way.
Although Yu Shengshou was a bit talkative, he had a kind heart and often treated people for free. The problem was that while he could waive the consultation fees, he couldnât do the same for the cost of medicine.
Medicine was provided by pharmacies, and he couldnât afford to buy it for his patients.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
As for Anesthesia Powder, it was available but quite expensive. For well-off families, they could tolerate the cost by gritting their teeth and using it. But it was out of reach for the poor, who could only bear the pain without it.
Yu Shengshou was used to this situation, so he didnât think of it at first. He habitually asked Jiang Yi to get a cloth to stuff in Jiang Ningâs mouth.
Fortunately, Jiang Yi was knowledgeable and managed to prevent Jiang Ning from enduring the pain needlessly.
She had never expected that Anesthesia Powder would be available here.
Jiang Yi didnât even need Yu Shengshou to write a prescription, she directly called the housekeeper to go to the pharmacy and fetch the medicine.
To Jiang Ningâs surprise, in this dynasty, the prescription for Anesthesia Powder was public knowledge and pharmacies had the ingredients prepared in advance.
After taking the brewed medicine, Jiang Ning indeed no longer felt pain in her leg.
Upon reflection, she realized that the medicine she had been given by the nursemaid in the secret chamber of the East Palace was similar.
But its effects were not as good.
Ms. Ma hated her, so she would not give her the best medicine.
Yu Shengshou pinched Jiang Ningâs leg and asked, âDoes it hurt?â
Jiang Ning shook her head.
âThen Iâll start now.â
Yu Shengshou calmed his mind and began to set Jiang Ningâs bones.
Jiang Ningâs bones were only broken, and since Ms. Ma wasnât as strong as a man, Jiang Ningâs injury appeared worse than it was. However, it was still much less severe than the Crown Princeâs shattered bones.
With the Anesthesia Powder, Jiang Ning didnât feel pain, but she could still feel her bones moving.
It felt quite strange.
While she herself remained calm, Jiang Yi nearby was so tense that he nearly crushed a cup in his hand.
After the bones were set, Yu Shengshou treated the external wounds on her leg. He then wrapped it with gauze and immobilized it with thin wooden boards.
âYou mustnât remove the bandage, and you mustnât move around,â Yu Shengshou earnestly warned Jiang Ning. âYou need to let the bone mend properly, or else there will be trouble.â
Jiang Yi agreed repeatedly, âDonât worry, Iâll make sure she doesnât move.â
Yu Shengshou said, âIn a few days, Iâll come back to check on her. As long as she stays still and rests, there shouldnât be any major problems.â
Jiang Yi was still worried, âWill the bone heal in a few months?â
âYour sister is still young, so it will naturally heal well. But she must keep taking her medicine.â
âAnd after itâs healed?â
âItâll be fine,â Yu Shengshou said as he packed up his medicine box.
Anxious, Jiang Yi asked, âWhat I mean is, after her bones have healed, will she be able to stand up and walk?â
âDo you even need to ask?â Yu Shengshou laughed. âAs long as your sister takes good care of herself, eats well, and takes her medicine, I guarantee that in three months, sheâll be able to stand up and walk just like before.â
âWhat? Sheâll still need a wheelchair?â
âOh, what I meant was sheâll just like a normal person,â Yu Shengshou chuckled. âI momentarily forgot.â
âSo sheâll be able to walk, run, and jump, just like the rest of us?â Jiang Yi asked again to confirm.
Seeing how concerned he was for his sister, Yu Shengshou smiled and replied, âThe young master is right. As long as your sister can do everything you can do now, sheâll be able to do them in the future.â
Jiang Yi clapped his hands and exclaimed excitedly, âThatâs great!â
He ran to Jiang Ningâs side and said with a smile, âDid you hear that, Seventh Sister? Youâre going to be all right!â
Jiang Ning replied with a smile, âYes, I heard.â
