The Substitute Madam Amazes the World Once More

Chapter 512: You’re Welcome

After changing into her shoes and entering, Mo Zhu had just stepped into the main hall when she saw Ming Mei and Jin Fang sitting on the sofa, talking and laughing as they sipped tea.

Noticing that Mo Zhu had returned, Ming Mei stood up with a smile on her face. She quickly walked two steps to the girl and grabbed Mo Zhu’s hand. She said intimately, “Good child, you’re finally here. Your uncle and I have been searching for the herbs according to your prescription recently. It took us a long time to barely gather the herbs on the list.”

When Mo Zhu heard this, she glanced at her hand that was held by Ming Mei from the corner of her eye. She took a step back unnaturally and replied politely, “Since we’ve already found the medicine, let’s not delay any longer. Let’s start treating him as soon as possible.”

After saying this, Mo Zhu did not waste any more time. She immediately walked around Ming Mei and came to Jin Fang’s side. She signaled the man to place his hand flat on the coffee table in front of him. Her straightforward actions were very neat as she took Jin Fang’s pulse.

About two minutes later, Mo Zhu lowered her eyes and pondered for a moment. She seemed to have thought of something and looked up at Ming Mei, who was a little nervous. She asked, “Auntie Ming, how’s Uncle Jin’s diet these few days? What dishes does your kitchen prepare for him?”

Upon hearing Mo Zhu’s question, Ming Mei did not dare to hide anything. She immediately straightened her expression and replied seriously as she recalled, “Your Uncle Jin likes to eat fish. In the past few days, other than some steamed fish, sweet and sour fish, and so on, he had only stewed chicken soup and stomach-nourishing porridge. He didn’t eat anything else other than some vegetables.”

Mo Zhu nodded in understanding when she heard this. She understood the crux of the matter and explained in a harsh tone, “Uncle’s stomach can’t absorb the poison well because he often goes out to socialize and participate in drinking sessions. Last time, after giving him a simple treatment here, we have suppressed the speed of the poison in his body. However, he has eaten a little too much these few days. He had eaten too much and caused the poison in his meridians to spread…”

Upon hearing this, before Mo Zhu could finish, Ming Mei, who had been worried the entire time, could not help but ask anxiously, “Girl, what do you mean by this? Your uncle’s condition worsened? Is there any way to treat him?”

Seeing that Ming Mei was so nervous about Jin Fang, Mo Zhu raised her eyebrows slightly. She raised her hand and gently patted the woman’s hand. She comforted her lightly, “Auntie Ming, you don’t have to be too nervous. Even if the poison continues to operate, it won’t affect the treatment. Previously, it had been in Uncle’s body for so long, but I didn’t see any other illnesses caused by it. It can be seen that it isn’t enough to cause great damage to the body in the short term.”

After pausing for a few seconds, Mo Zhu rubbed her palms and added, “Let’s continue with the medicinal bath and acupuncture treatment later. However, the treatment process this time might be even more unbearable than the last time. I hope Uncle can grit his teeth and persist.”

After hearing Mo Zhu’s words, Jin Fang, who was in front of her, immediately heaved a sigh of relief. He stood up and held Ming Mei’s arm. His heart ached as he said softly, “Did you hear that? Mo Zhu said that I’m fine. Don’t worry too much. You haven’t had a good rest these few days as you’ve been busy looking for medicine. When I go take a medicinal bath later, ask the butler here to arrange a room for you to sleep.”

After saying this, Jin Fang looked up at Mo Zhu and said gratefully, “Girl, I’ve been unable to cure this illness for so many years. Your aunt and I are indeed anxious. It’s fortunate that we have you this time. I don’t know how to thank you. If you need the Jin family’s help, feel free to ask. As long as it’s within my ability, I won’t have any objections!”

Seeing that Jin Fang’s attitude when he came to the small mansion this time was completely different from the last time, she realized that Ming Mei might have told him something in advance. Mo Zhu also felt the man’s sincerity. She curled her lips into a smile and nodded. “Uncle, you’re welcome. Bring the medicine and follow me.”
