"Yes, yes, the Old Master is still waiting for soone to save his life! Doctor, please hurry and save my Old Master!" Lady Zhang cried with tears and snot all over her face, her makeup ruined, looking quite wretched.
The Doctor appeared helpless: "Madam, how can I save the Celestial Master if you’re holding onto my legs?"
The Maid stepped forward to persuade: "Yes, madam, please let go of the Doctor, the Celestial Master is still waiting for the Doctor to save his life!"
Lady Zhang was so frightened that she had lost her senses, completely unaware of loosening her grip, her hands still firmly clutching the Doctor’s legs, murmuring, "Doctor, I beg you, please save my Old Master!"
The Maid said anxiously, "Madam, don’t be like this, the Celestial Master has lost too much blood, he won’t last, please let go of the Doctor, let him save the Celestial Master."
This Doctor is the best in the Capital.
No other Doctor’s dical skill compares to his, so the steward naturally wanted him to treat Celestial Master Zhang.
No matter how everyone persuaded, Lady Zhang simply wouldn’t release the Doctor’s legs. Lady Zhang’s noble status ant that no one could hit or scold her, leaving everyone helpless.
In the end, having no other choice, the steward had a few servant boys carry her and the Doctor together, placing them by Celestial Master Zhang’s bedside.
Thus, the Doctor attended to Celestial Master Zhang’s treatnt, while Lady Zhang crouched on the ground, clinging to his legs, endlessly pleading, "Doctor, I beg you, please save my Old Master!"
She looked entirely like a madwoman.
The Doctor finally managed to stop the bleeding for Celestial Master Zhang and applied dicine.
The Doctor prepared to leave, but Lady Zhang still clung to his legs, refusing to let go, so how could he walk?
The Doctor, with a pained expression, said to the steward, "Steward, this...this... please persuade the madam, I must hurry ho."
It was already past midnight, with guards holding swords to his neck, forcing him to treat Celestial Master Zhang. His wife likely had no idea what had happened, surely she was extrely worried.
The steward was equally helpless, as the madam was the master, and he was a servant, he dared not do anything to offend her. The last ti, because of the incident with Young Master Zhao, the madam was grounded for a month and held a grudge against him, so now he dared not provoke her anger.
The steward said, "Doctor, since the night is almost over, why don’t you stay the night and return tomorrow morning?"
The Doctor, looking anxious, replied, "I can’t, if I don’t return ho, my wife will surely worry, it pains !"
The steward continued to persuade, "It’s the middle of the night, the roads aren’t safe. Doctor, just listen to my advice and stay at the Celestial Master’s Mansion for the night!"
The Doctor was on the verge of tears, "Steward, it’s improper for a man and a woman to be alone together. If word gets out, it will ruin the madam’s reputation."
The Doctor was also a learned man, well-versed in etiquette.
Upon hearing this, the steward beca anxious, having not considered this issue before: "This...this... the madam won’t let go, what should we do?"
The Doctor glanced at the tea on the table: "I have an idea, but I don’t know if the steward dares to do it?"
The steward, with a sense of determination, said, "For the madam’s reputation, there’s nothing I wouldn’t dare do."
The Doctor pointed at the tea on the table and said, "Just pour the tea directly onto the madam’s face, she will surely wake up. Once she’s awake, everyone will be relieved."
The steward beca timid imdiately. Last ti he offended the madam and hadn’t received her forgiveness; now pouring tea on her, what if she gets angry and throws him out?
"Doctor, please think of another thod? This thod really won’t work, I don’t dare pour tea on the madam."
"There is no other way, this thod is the most direct, the best, the swiftest and the most effective, steward, consider carefully, is the madam’s reputation more important, or is it more important for you to be scolded once?"
