Liu Shimei nodded, saying, “That’s very good. You can go attend to your tasks first.”
Xu Xian nodded and added, “Several patients want to make appointments with Eldest Young Miss for consultations. I’ve noted down their details in the appointment book. It seems like they are all wives from wealthy households.”
“Hmm, let me see.”
Liu Shimei thought to herself, ‘Although my visit to the Miao family disgusted me, at least it created a buzz. Madam Miao’s illness doesn’t matter much; what’s important is that others hear about the female physician. No one wants to be plagued by diseases, so there will definitely be people willing to give it a try.’
She pondered, ‘I should indeed have Shu Han bring a few female doctors here as soon as possible to manage my gynecology clinic!’
After the appointment book was handed over, Liu Shimei glanced over it briefly. It contained details about the patients, their backgrounds, and addresses.
These were all women from wealthy families who generally preferred not to seek medical help at their homes.
House calls were extremely time-consuming, with long waiting times and very little efficiency.
Liu Shimei thought, once her reputation as a specialist in gynecology was established, she would follow the approach of Consort Nie in the ‘Min Liang Medical Chronicles’, refusing house calls and only seeing patients who came to her.
She outlined a plan for the next day’s visits and handed it to Xu Xian, saying, “You go reply to the posts.”
“Yes,” Xu Xian nodded.
Liu Shimei turned around and pulled Huangfu Lingyao inside, heading towards the gynecology clinic.
“Lingyao, I might be very busy from now on. Won’t you find it boring?” she asked while walking.
She walked ahead, holding his hand behind her. Looking at her back, Huangfu Lingyao replied, “Not at all, it’s fun wherever we are.”
Liu Shimei thought the same and smiled, “Right, back when we weren’t engaged, weren’t you always roaming around the Imperial Capital?” Huangfu Lingyao chuckled, “Yes!”
He smiled on the outside but was still contemplating the events of a moment ago in his heart.
He thought, ‘What if she really sees through it? No, I have to figure out a way to gather all this fluctuating true energy as soon as possible.’
Can she fight?
Yes!
Is her martial arts skill high?
Not as good as Zhong Lang, can’t beat Li Xin either, but definitely not bad.
It was under control before, why has the true energy been fluctuating recently?
Because Liu Shimei was sick. He had been devoted to accompanying her recently, staying with her in the hospital room for ten consecutive days, just inside and outside the door.
She was nearby, Zhong Lang was also secretly protecting her. He did not dare to act recklessly, so he interrupted his daily practice, causing his true energy to fluctuate. Just when Liu Shimei felt like giving him a pulse diagnosis out of the blue, she sensed the fluctuation in his meridians!
She did not understand martial arts, so she did not know what it was.
But he had to dispel her doubts. Otherwise, if she asked Qi Yang to diagnose him, he might really be exposed!
Having made up his mind, Huangfu Lingyao asked, “Wife, are you going back to the mansion tonight?”
Liu Shimei blinked and turned to him, asking, “Why are you asking this?”
Huangfu Lingyao said matter-of-factly, “I want to go back with you!”
In fact, he knew Liu Shimei wouldn’t agree, which was why he said it on purpose.
Sure enough, Liu Shimei shook her head and refused his proposal, “No, you can stay in the Fusheng Pavilion, but going back to the mansion is definitely not allowed. The Grand Chancellor doesn’t dare to break your leg; who knows if he might use domestic punishment on me again!”
The last time she let him sleep in the side room was because it was broad daylight, and others wouldn’t expect him to be sleeping in the Leihua Courtyard.
But if he stayed overnight…
Would it really establish her reputation as unfaithful, unable to live without a man?
