NovelEnglishChapter 22
Before Daya got married, she had stayed in the same room with the old lady. As such, there was still a bedboard in the room with a few items piled on it.
The old lady tidied up her room for Shu Yu to live in. Then, she took her blanket and went out, saying that she was going over to her eldest son’s house.
Shu Yu couldn’t stop her and could only let her do as she wished.
It seemed that she couldn’t stay at the Lu family’s house tomorrow. It wasn’t right for her to not only finish the Lu family’s grain reserves but also chase the owners away just for her comfort.
Shu Yu originally thought that she would be unable to fall asleep since she had a lot of things on her mind. Unexpectedly, she had the most peaceful sleep she had ever had since coming to the Dasu dynasty a year ago.
When she woke up the next day, everyone had already packed up. Madam Ruan had even finished washing the clothes.

Sh*t. Lu Erbai still had to go to the county to get his leg checked today. Had she wasted time since she had slept until now?
Shu Yu quickly got dressed and opened the door. Sure enough, everyone was already waiting for her.
However, the old lady said that there was no hurry and asked her to take her time.
How could Shu Yu take her time? The Lu family had left some breakfast for her in the kitchen. After taking a few bites, they set off.
This time, only Lu Erbai and the old lady were going to the county with Shu Yu. Madam Ruan stayed at home to take care of the two children.
Even though Madam Ruan wanted to go as well, Lu Erbai was there to treat his injury. It would be too much of a hassle for the whole family to go together.
Shu Yu went along because she was not sure if the rumored orthopedist was really that capable. If the other party was just fishing for fame, Lu Erbai’s leg would be beyond saving.
The ox-cart was parked outside the door. The old lady had borrowed it yesterday.
The one driving the ox-cart was a young man. The old lady introduced him, “This is Daniu from my eldest son’s family. We don’t know how to drive a cart, so I asked him to come over and help.”
Daniu looked very simple and honest. He didn’t dare to look at Shu Yu too much. He sat on the ox-cart and simply laughed awkwardly. When everyone was seated, he drove the ox-cart out of the village.
Many passers-by looked at them, their eyes focused on Shu Yu, pointing at her and discussing something in low voices.
Shu Yu didn’t mind. She only asked Lu Erbai how his leg felt.
Lu Erbai only said that it hurt a little, probably because of the fall yesterday.
Although Daniu didn’t say anything, he slowed down. Shu Yu was surprised. The young man didn’t look it, but he was quite a meticulous person.
When they arrived at the county, it was already past seven o’clock in the morning. The entire town was bustling with activity.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmFollowing the address that they had inquired about, they arrived at Doctor Xu’s clinic.
Although it was called a clinic, it was actually just a small shop.
Doctor Xu and his assistant were the only ones in the shop. The rows of medicine cabinets on the wall were quite a spectacular sight.
Perhaps it was because Doctor Xu’s consultation prices were too high. There were only two customers in the shop who were here for medicine. There were no patients.
Shu Yu and the others went in. Doctor Xu raised his head to take a look. Without saying anything else, he had Lu Erbai sit down and immediately took his pulse while checking his injury.
Shu Yu observed Doctor Xu’s expression. After a while, the latter stood up and said, “The bone is dislocated. It needs to be broken and set again.”
The symptoms he described were more detailed than what Shu Yu had explained.
Shu Yu was relieved. The old lady was even more enraged. “That Doctor Yan is indeed a great cause for harm.”
Doctor Xu was not interested in listening to her scolding. He asked directly, “Do you want to treat him?”
The old lady looked at Shu Yu. After all, she was the one who was paying.
“Of course!” Shu Yu nodded without hesitation.
