Second Madam Zhao rolled her eyes and stood up to follow them.

Zhang Yan ignored her and spoke to Zhou Xiaoli, “My husband was born prematurely and his body was weak. When he was four years old, he accidentally fell into the water. When he was rescued, he was on his last breath. Fortunately, he survived, but from then on, he fell ill with a cough.”

“He has seen many doctors all these years and has taken a lot of medicine, but he hasn’t recovered. They all say that my husband has tuberculosis and can’t be saved…

At the end, Zhang Yan’s face was filled with sorrow.

Zhou Xiaoli patted her hand to comfort her.

“Don’t worry too much about it. I’ll take a look at the situation first.”

As they spoke, they arrived at Zhao Yingji’s room.

Zhou Xiaoli asked Wei Chiyu to wait in the outer room and was about to follow Zhang Yan in when she turned around and saw Second Madam Zhao covering her nose with a handkerchief. She stood far away and looked over.

“Sister-in-law, why are you standing so far away? Let’s go in together. Don’t you want to see your brother’s condition?”

Second Madam Zhao wanted to avoid doing that and kept rejecting Zhang Yan’s invitation.

“No need for that, no need. I’ll just stay in the courtyard. It won’t be nice for me to go in as well as I may disturb the doctor in her diagnosis. Hehe.” Zhang Yan sneered. She knew what was going on.

In the Zhao family, almost everyone thought that her husband had tuberculosis. They were afraid that it would be contagious and avoided him.

Her sister-in-law was standing in the courtyard because she was afraid that her husband would get better!

Zhang Yan sneered and ignored her.

“Let’s go. I’ll take you in.”

With that, she brought Zhou Xiaoli into the room.

Autumn had just started, but the room was filled with basins containing burning charcoal. The room was warm.

Zhang Yan said, “My husband’s body is weak and he’s afraid of the cold and the wind. As soon as autumn comes, we have to keep the charcoal burning in the room.”

Zhang Yan explained and quickly walked to the bed. She helped Zhao Yingji up and introduced them.

“Husband, this is Sister Zhou whom I told you about. She was the one who saved our Brother An back then.”

Zhao Yingji used Zhang Yan’s strength to sit up. When he saw Zhou Xiaoli, he was a little surprised. “Miss Zhou is so young, but your medical skills are already so good. You’re really amazing. I heard from Yan’er that you saved our Brother An. As a father, I should visit and thank you, but my body does not allow me to leave the courtyard..

Before he could finish speaking, Zhao Yingji had already coughed a few times.

In the end, he coughed until he could not breathe.

Zhang Yan hurriedly fed him water to calm his breathing. Gradually, Zhao Yingji regained his breath.

Only then did Zhou Xiaoli say, “Young Master Zhao, you’re too polite. It’s also the Young Master’s good fortune.”

After exchanging a few words, Zhou Xiaoli went forward to take Zhao Yingji’s pulse.

Half an hour later, Zhou Xiaoli walked out with a heavy expression.

After Zhang Yan helped Zhao Yingji lie down, she hurriedly followed.

As soon as she arrived outside, she asked impatiently, “Sister, how is it? My husband?”

Zhou Xiaoli shook her head and sighed, “The situation is a little bad.”

Zhang Yan’s face instantly turned pale, and her lips trembled. In the end, she still asked, “What do you mean?”

Zhou Xiaoli sighed again. “Young Master Zhao’s illness has dragged on for too long. I don’t have much confidence to cure him. If we want to be conservative, I could use medicine to keep him alive for a while longer.”

After Zhou Xiaoli took his pulse, Second Madam Zhao hurried over and eavesdropped on their conversation.

After hearing Zhou Xiaoli’s words, she sneered and could not help but mock her.

“Aiyo, Sister-in-law, it’s not that I want to criticize you, but if you’re doing this for the Big Brother’s sake, you should find famous doctors. Perhaps there’s still some hope for him then.”

“Why had you brought such a country bumpkin? Are you trying to cure Big Brother or harm him?”

With that, she sneered and turned to leave with her maidservant supporting her.

Before she left, she even said to the maidservant, “Father-in-law has found many famous doctors to treat Eldest Brother. If this little beggar can cure the Eldest Brother of his illness, I’ll take her surname. Hahaha.’

At this moment, Zhang Yan was really sad. She could not be bothered with Second Madam Zhao’s sarcasm.

She sat down weakly. Tears welled in her eyes, and her whole body sank.

“Actually, I’ve already guessed the outcome, but I just won’t give up. I just want to try…”

At this moment, Zhou Xiaoli’s voice could be heard. “We should give it a try. Otherwise, how can we cure him of his illness?”

Zhang Yan raised her head and looked at Zhou Xiaoli. She was a little confused, but she asked hopefully, “Sister Zhou, what do you mean?”

Zhou Xiaoli smiled and walked to the table. She sat down and picked up a pen.

“I didn’t say that there was no hope at all. I just said that I’m not confident.”

Zhang Yan was still a little stunned. A moment later, her eyes lit up. “Sister

Zhou, you mean that you have a way, right?”

Zhou Xiaoli nodded. “It’s true that your husband doesn’t have tuberculosis, but his condition is due to his weak lungs over the years. However, because it has dragged on for too long, his condition is indeed very bad, but it’s not hopeless.”

As soon as she finished speaking, Zhang Yan grabbed Zhou Xiaoli excitedly. “I knew you would have a way. Sister Zhou, you’re really my benefactor!” Zhou Xiaoli said helplessly, “Sister Zhang, I’m writing a prescription.”

Zhang Yan also realized that she had lost her composure and smiled in embarrassment. “I was too excited. You don’t know, but in all these years, you’re the first to say that my husband has hope. I’m so happy.”

Now that her arm was free, Zhou Xiaoli continued to write the prescription. “Take this prescription for three months. After three months, I’ll come back to observe the effects.

Knowing that her husband could be saved, Zhang Yan’s words were like an imperial edict to Zhou Xiaoli.

However, Zhou Xiaoli pulled her back and whispered, “Sister Zhang, I shouldn’t say much about this matter. After all, it’s your family’s matter. However, since you call me your sister, and I do treat you as my biological sister, I have to say a few words.’

Zhang Yan was touched. “I also treat you as my biological sister. If you have something to say, say it. Don’t worry, you are not an outsider to me.”

Only then did Zhou Xiaoli open her mouth and say, “The Zhao Residence is complicated. I’m sure you know that even if I don’t tell you, there are many people in the Residence who don’t want your husband to get better. Do you understand?”

Zhang Yan was not surprised. “Of course I know. My Brother An was poisoned the other time. That person was the old maidservant who was with me last time. I had immediately dealt with her when I returned home.”

“I know why my Sister-in-law came just now as well. She just wants to see if my husband can survive.”

Zhou Xiaoli nodded. Zhang Yan was definitely not an ignorant girl. Otherwise, she would have been ousted by the people in the Residence long ago.

However, that was not what she wanted to remind her of. She looked around with a troubled expression.

Zhang Yan immediately understood what Zhou Xiaoli meant and immediately used various excuses to send all the servants out.

Only then did she say, “Sister, do you have something to say?”

Zhou Xiaoli was not in a hurry to answer. Instead, she asked, “Sister, do you trust me?”

Zhang Yan said without hesitation, “Of course I believe you.” 𝒃𝙚𝒅𝙣𝙤𝒗𝙚𝒍.𝙣𝙚𝙩

After receiving an affirmative answer, Zhou Xiaoli continued, “Sister Zhang, you naturally know more about the ways the things and people work in the Residence than I do.”

“However, I took a look at you and the Eldest Young Master Zhao earlier and I’m afraid there’s a villain in your residence. If this person is around, I’m afraid your courtyard will suffer a calamity within a month.”

Zhang Yan was shocked. “Sister, you, you…”

Zhou Xiaoli did not hide anything. “Sister Zhang, I didn’t tell you. I’m actually a metaphysical disciple and know some things about it..”
