Chapter 224: Entanglement

Master Ling Wu drank a whole pot of tea, and he couldn't hold it in and went to the bathroom twice. He was so annoyed that he kept looking into the inner hall.

Finally, Ling Jingshu appeared at the door.

Master Ling Wu breathed a sigh of relief, and hurriedly got up and went to meet her. He looked at Ling Jingshu quickly: "A Shu, how did Doctor Wei treat you today?"

Ling Jingshu handed the prescription in her hand to Master Ling Wu: "This is the prescription that Doctor Wei gave me. Let me take the medicine according to the prescription and boil it three times a day. Drink it for a month to see how effective it is."

Master Ling Wu took the prescription and looked at it carefully for a moment... Of course, he couldn't see anything. The handwriting on the prescription was elegant and neat, and it was obvious at a glance. The names of the medicinal materials were also heard. When they gathered together, they were at a loss and knew nothing.

Master Ling Wu was a romantic and talented scholar who was involved in piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, but he knew nothing about medical skills. How could he understand the prescription?

Ling Jingshu understood and deliberately asked, "Father, how is the prescription?"

Ling Wuye coughed and said seriously, "Dr. Wei is indeed a famous doctor of the time. His medical skills are amazing. This prescription is very good and wonderful!"

Ling Jingshu pulled the corner of her lips with a smile: "Father is well-educated and knowledgeable. He is also quite knowledgeable about prescriptions. I really admire you."

No matter how thick-skinned Ling Wuye was, he felt hot on his face when he heard such words. He was afraid that Ling Jingshu would continue to talk about this topic, so he looked around and said to him, "Huichuntang has all the medicinal materials. Prepare the medicinal materials here and then go back!"

As he said that, he handed the prescription to the waiter beside him: "Please prepare a month's worth of medicinal materials."

The waiter took the prescription with a smile and said neatly, "I will prepare the medicine right away. Please wait for a while, Ling Wuye and Miss Ling."

The medicinal materials for three times a day were prepared according to the prescription and wrapped in light brown paper. Finally, they were tied up one by one with thin hemp ropes. Ninety packages of medicinal materials were tied into three large packages. Then they were sent to the carriage of the Ling family.

Ling Wuye smiled and asked: "How much silver do these medicines and the consultation fee cost in total?"

The waiter replied: "Manager Han just specifically reminded us that Doctor Wei never charges for consultations at Huichuntang. The medicinal materials in this prescription are very precious, and many of them are brought by Doctor Wei from the Imperial Hospital. Even Manager Han doesn't know how much silver they are worth. Therefore, Huichuntang cannot accept this silver."

Ling Wuye was stunned: "So, I should ask Doctor Wei?"

The waiter smiled attentively: "Small people can't make decisions on such matters. However, Doctor Wei rarely comes to Huichuntang, and there are countless patients waiting for consultation. He is busy with consultations now, and probably has no time to see Ling Wuye. Why don't you ask Ling Wuye another day!"

Ling Wuye thought about it and nodded.

Fortunately, I will go to the Prince's Mansion in a few days, and I will have many opportunities to meet Wei Yan. Moreover, if Wei Yan cures Ling Jingshu's disease, and Ling Xiao's eye disease, how can his kindness to the Ling family be repaid with just gold and silver?

...

The carriage of the Ling family is parked outside Huichun Hall.

Ling Jingshu followed Ling Wuye out of Huichun Hall and saw a familiar figure from a distance.

Lu Qian!

Why is he here?

Ling Jingshu frowned, but did not stop.

Ling Wuye was also very unhappy, but he could not show it. He strode to the side of the carriage and said lightly: "A Qian, why did you suddenly come here? How did you know that I brought A Shu to Huichun Hall?"

Even if he tried his best to hide it, his tone was cold and unhappy.

Lu Qian forced a smile: "Fifth uncle, I went to the Ling Mansion this morning. It was my aunt who told me that you came to Huichun Hall, so I came here."

Sun is really nosy!

How could he reveal Ling Jingshu's whereabouts to Lu Qian when he knew that Lu Qian had a crush on Ling Jingshu and it was inappropriate for them to have any contact?

Ling Wuye secretly complained in his heart, and casually responded: "You are thoughtful."

In just two sentences, Ling Jingshu also led the maid to the carriage. Since Lu Qian came specifically for her, she couldn't avoid him at all, and could only perfunctorily deal with him despite her disgust.

"Cousin Qian," Ling Jingshu greeted him indifferently, secretly feeling surprised.

Lu Qian looked depressed, as if he had suffered an indescribable blow...

Lu Qian looked at Ling Jingshu, who was calm and silent, and Sun's words suddenly came to his mind again. For a moment, his heart was surging, and he couldn't control his emotions. He stepped forward and whispered: "Cousin Shu, why didn't you tell me that you actually had this disease?"

Ling Jingshu: "..."

Ling Jingshu's eyes turned cold, and her voice was stern: "Who told you that I was sick?"

Ling Wuye on the side also frowned.

Lu Qian said sadly: "It was my aunt who told me. You will suffer from this strange disease because of our Lu family. The Lu family is sorry for you."

This sounds like a human word.

Ling Wuye felt a little relieved.

Only Ling Jingshu heard the true meaning of Lu Qian's words. Lu An's disgusting and disgusting face suddenly passed through her mind, and her heart was immediately stirred up by a huge wave.

"Cousin Shu, I'm sorry." Lu Qian took another step closer, his pretty face filled with pain and guilt: "I'm really sorry. I don't know what I can do to ask for your forgiveness..."

"Never in this life!"

Ling Jingshu's face was as cold as ice, and she uttered word by word.

Lu Qian's whole body was shocked, and his face was miserable.

The two were very close. He clearly saw the hatred and disgust in Ling Jingshu's eyes that she had never concealed: "Lu Qian, I know what you are thinking. I have already made it clear to you in Dingzhou before. Now I might as well say it again."

"I would rather live alone for the rest of my life than marry into the Lu family. No matter what happens, I will not change my mind. You'd better give up this idea as soon as possible. Don't come to see me again in the future. Every time I see you, I hate you a little more, and I hate the Lu family more. Even if I die, I will not set foot in the Lu family."

"My illness is caused by the Lu family. If I can be cured in the future, it will be my luck. If I can't be cured, it is also the pain that I am destined to bear. If you don't show up, my pain can be slightly lighter. If you really feel sorry for me, then stay away from me in the future, don't come to the Ling family again, and don't let me see you again."

After saying that, Ling Jingshu walked past Lu Qian without looking back and got on the carriage.

Bai Yu and Qiao Yun hurriedly followed.

Master Ling Wu glanced at Lu Qian, who looked pale and defeated, and wanted to say something, but in the end, nothing came out.
