Chapter 99: Her Conditions

These were Su Xiaolu’s conditions. She had stated them very clearly.

Sun Bocheng and Sun Ziqian listened quietly. They looked at Su Xiaolu and finally stopped treating her like a child.

Just as they were about to agree, Su Xiaolu said, “I’m sure you know that his body is very weak. I don’t think anyone in this world can guarantee that he won’t die. I can only promise that I will do my best to treat him, but his body is really too weak. If he can’t survive this, you can’t vent your anger on my family.”

Of course, Su Xiaolu had also considered what Old Wu had considered.

Sun Bocheng and Sun Ziqian had already calmed down. They did not answer Su Xiaolu immediately.

Su Xiaolu did not ask further. Instead, she said, “You can think about it first. After all, treatment is a long-term thing. It will take at least three years for his condition to improve. It will take at least five years for him to recover. So, you don’t have to worry about spending the next few days thinking about it. Let me go and see the other one first.”

With that, Su Xiaolu walked out.

Old Wu was very satisfied with Su Xiaolu’s performance. He smiled and followed behind her.

Sun Ziqian was a little confused. He looked at Sun Bocheng and asked, “Father, what should we do?”

Sun Bocheng also had his own considerations. The Sun family did not have many children. Now, Sun Ziqian was his only son. Sun Ziqian was deeply in love with Madam Lian and naturally refused to take concubines. If Sun Baoshan could not recover, the Sun family would be done for.

He wasn’t sure how to respond.

He looked at the hopeful Sun Baoshan. Sun Bocheng sighed and said, “Let’s go over and see Qian’s condition first.”

Sun Baoshan’s health was deteriorating year by year. This year, he didn’t even go out. He was also obedient and drank medicine whenever he was told to. If he couldn’t go out, he would read at home.

Sun Baoshan was very smart. If he was in good health, he would definitely be able to take the scholarly examination if he continued studying. Unfortunately, the heavens were not willing.

Who would have thought that the Sun family were military officials two generations earlier?

Sun Bocheng sighed and went out.

Sun Ziqian gently stroked Sun Baoshan’s hair and said, “Shan, rest well. I’ll go and see your sister.”

Sun Baoshan nodded obediently. “Go ahead, Father. Don’t worry about me. I’ll be obedient.”

Sun Ziqian turned and went out. Sun Baoshan looked at Sun Ziqian’s back and lowered his eyes. His gaze fell on his thin wrist and he smiled as he thought about the touch. If only he could really be cured.

Inside the inner room on the right.

Sun Baoqian had already sat down obediently and was waiting.

When Su Xiaolu and Old Wu came in, Sun Baoqian stood up politely and bowed. “Greetings, doctor. Greetings, young doctor.”

Old Wu made a faint sound of agreement.

This was the first time Su Xiaolu had been called a doctor. She smiled at Sun Baoqian.

Old Wu took Sun Baoqian’s pulse first. He pondered for a moment before saying, “Her condition is better than the previous one. Their symptoms are the same.”

When Madam Lian heard this, she looked anxious. She was about to ask how she could be cured, but before she could ask, Su Xiaolu sat down and took her pulse again.

Su Xiaolu’s conclusion was the same as Old Wu’s. She retracted her hand and said, “It can be treated. It’s the same as before. I’ve already mentioned the conditions. You can consider it carefully and not be in a hurry to give an answer.”

Su Xiaolu said to Sun Bocheng and Sun Ziqian.

Madam Lian was confused. She looked at Sun Ziqian in confusion and asked him what was going on.

Sun Ziqian gave Madam Lian a look to tell her not to be anxious.

Sun Bocheng looked at Su Xiaolu and said, “May I ask who will treat my grandson?”

To be honest, Sun Bocheng did not trust Su Xiaolu. After all, she was a child.

Su Xiaolu’s conditions were easy for the Sun residence to fulfill. The only thing they were worried about was that she couldn’t cure the children.

The more hope they had, the more they could not bear to fail.

Sun Ziqian also looked worried.

Although Madam Lian wasn’t sure what had just happened, she had her own judgment. Coupled with the fact that Su Xiaolu had just checked Sun Baoqian’s pulse, she had a guess. Her gaze landed on Su Xiaolu. No matter how she looked at it, it was unbelievable. She swallowed and wanted to speak several times, but she didn’t. She held back her questions and waited for Old Wu to speak to Su Xiaolu.

Old Wu said very naturally, “Of course, my disciple will. If you’re worried, my disciple can perform acupuncture for you first. You can personally feel her ability. Anyway, there’s still a long way to go. I think Madam Sun’s body is also weak. Why don’t you let her try?”

He had never doubted Su Xiaolu’s ability. If he had studied hard all his life, then Su Xiaolu was talented from the start.

And talent could not be obtained even if one worked hard.

Those without talent can spend an entire lifetime learning but still be unable to understand, while those with talent could do it easily, and Su Xiaolu was one of the latter.

Whether it was acupuncture or the taking of the pulse, if she said she was the second best, no one would dare to claim to be the best.

After all, Minggu Medical Valley was number one, and he was the only successor of Minggu. He now recognized Su Xiaolu as the best. If Su Xiaolu was second best, he could only fall behind.

But Su Xiaolu was young, so it was normal for them not to believe her.

It’s fine if they don’t believe her. They can just see for themselves.

When Old Wu casually said this, Sun Bocheng looked at Madam Lian.

Madam Lian naturally did not hesitate to agree. Sun Ziqian pulled her back and said, “Doctor, let me try.”

Sun Ziqian did not want Madam Lian to take the risk. Madam Lian had been in poor health ever since she gave birth to Sun Baoshan and Sun Baoqian. Her medicinal cuisine had not stopped for the past few years.

In the past, she had eaten wild animals sent by a family and got much better. Unfortunately, that family had been seriously injured and stopped hunting. Originally, there would have been some livestock that was also very good, but they refused to sell them last year.

Sun Ziqian did not want his wife and children to take the risk when it came to dangerous matters, so he was most suitable.

“Then let my disciple take your pulse.”

As for who from the Sun family would try, Old Wu didn’t care. The outcome would be the same anyway.

Sun Baoqian stood up and Madam Lian led her to the bed to lie down.

Sun Ziqian sat down. He reached out and looked at Su Xiaolu gently. In his eyes, Su Xiaolu was still a child. If he was too serious, he might put pressure on her.

Su Xiaolu cherished every kindness. She also smiled at Sun Ziqian and then began to take his pulse. She quietly felt Sun Ziqian’s pulse. After a while, she retracted her hand and said, “Your pulse is also lacking. You should also have a sickly constitution. There’s nothing wrong with it, but you’re more prone to getting sick than most people.”

Sun Ziqian was stunned. Su Xiaolu was right. He was indeed prone to illness when he was young. There was nothing wrong with his body, but he was just more prone to illness than others. Over the years, he had seen many famous doctors who had also said the same thing.
