Yun Jiao shook her head indifferently, "I’m sorry, I can’t treat your illness."
Originally, if Zheng Juren only wanted to take her as a concubine and she didn’t agree, it wouldn’t have been a big deal, and there would be no vendetta.
But that day, he not only humiliated her, but later also took her to court, forming a deep grudge.
Zheng Juren was almost crying with anxiety.
So ti ago, he developed an ulcer down there, it wasn’t painful or itchy, so he didn’t pay attention to it.
Who knew, recently, red rashes suddenly appeared all over his body, he felt lethargic, and had a fever, so he went to see a doctor.
The doctor said he had syphilis and that it couldn’t be cured.
Zheng Juren took the dicine ho, but after a few days, there was no improvent.
Hearing that Doctor Gu from Renxin Hall is now the best in Xiang City, he gritted his teeth and ca looking for her.
Upon hearing Yun Jiao say she couldn’t treat it, Zheng Juren panicked, standing by the street bowing repeatedly, "Doctor Gu, it was my fault before, but all those things are in the past now."
"A doctor’s heart is like a parent’s, and your pharmacy is called Renxin Hall, surely Doctor Gu has a benevolent heart, I beg Doctor Gu to save my life."
At this mont, Lin Shuo slowly walked over, fearing Yun Jiao might relent, and whispered in her ear, "Do you know? Last ti Brother Jiang broke his leg, it was he who instructed his servant to push Brother Jiang down from upstairs."
Upon hearing Lin Shuo’s words, Yun Jiao’s face darkened, she turned around and went inside without a word.
Zheng Juren stretched his neck out and shouted, "Doctor Gu, Doctor Gu—"
With a forceful push, Ah Hu slamd the door shut, sending Zheng Juren flying, he said fiercely, "Stop shouting here, get lost quickly, or I’ll beat you up."
Zheng Juren, fearing a beating, walked away with a crying face.
Returning to the Money Master’s house where he stayed, he was suddenly shocked.
He saw the room was a ss, with things thrown around haphazardly.
Zheng Juren shouted loudly, "Qingniang, Qingniang—"
Qingniang was his favorite concubine, specially brought from ho to serve him.
The house was silent, no one answered him.
When he went into the room, he found that none of Qingniang’s jewelry or clothes were left.
Zheng Juren understood everything then, he sat down on the ground, suddenly thought of sothing, and called out again, "Shimo, Shimo—"
Eager to keep his syphilis a secret from his servant when he went to see the doctor earlier, fearing that an indiscreet mouth would ruin his reputation, he went alone.
The house remained silent, with no response.
Zheng Juren was overwheld with despair, sitting on the ground and sobbing loudly.
He had just beco a scholar less than a year ago.
Initially, he had a promising future and unlimited prospects, but who knew he’d end up like this in a blink of an eye.
While he was crying, soone ca in from outside, looked at Zheng Juren with disgust, "Our master said, you have this filthy disease, you can’t stay in the mansion. Pack your things and get out."
After saying this, the person threw down a five-tael piece of silver, "Our master is rciful, this is for your travel expenses, leave quickly."
Zheng Juren cried for a while, then got up from the ground, picked up the silver, packed up the remaining clothes and belongings, hired a carriage, and went back to Chunlin County.
The next day, the few farm won Yun Jiao had scheduled several tis, all ca over for their cataract surgeries.
Yun Jiao spent most of the day performing four surgeries.
Upon exiting the operating room, Shen Qing was waiting outside, "Doctor Gu, people from the dical Association have arrived."
Yun Jiao wiped the sweat while walking out, and outside she saw Yu Jiajie sitting there drinking tea.
Seeing Yun Jiao co out, he stood up and greeted her with a bow.
Yun Jiao smiled and returned the gesture.
