But they still got up early to prepare for the travel to town.

To facilitate the delivery of tofu skins, Chuchu bought two mule carts. Mules were faster than oxen and cheaper than horses. So, they were relatively cost-effective.

Xin Lichuan’s coachman also followed along.

Chuchu organized the custom-made medicine box, taking stock of silver needles and other items so she would not miss anything.

Otherwise, replenishment would be difficult when they arrived at the patient’s home.

They left at dawn.

When they arrived at the county town, it was precisely 9 A.M.

Chuchu did not need to settle tofu skins herself, so she went directly to the Gan clan with Xie Heng and Xie Jun.

Old Mrs. Gan was practicing walking in the courtyard. When she saw Chuchu, she beamed at her. “Chuchu, Da Lang, why are you so early? This child must be Junjun, right? He is handsome as his name suggests.”

Xie Jun blushed coyly and called out to Grandma Gan in a well-behaved manner, which softened her heart.

“This child is so well-behaved, unlike my naughty Lin and Quan when they were little.”

“Grandma Gan, don’t praise him. He’ll be overconfident later.”

“Sister-in-law, I’m not.”

Xie Jun tugged at Chuchu’s sleeve as he retorted in a small whisper.

Old Mrs. Gan couldn’t help but laugh out loud at this.

“Come in. Have a rest first. Have you had breakfast yet? I’ll have someone prepare it.”

“Yes, we have. We ate before we came.”

“Still, come in and sit. Is the Qiu clan looking for you guys? This clan is different from the Jin clan, so you can feel free to name a diagnosis for the old patient. If there is no cure, just tell the truth. They will not give you a hard time.”

“I will. Thank you for your consideration, Grandma Gan.”

“Don’t stand on ceremony here with me.”

After saying it, she sent someone for Madam Luo and asked her to take Chuchu to the Qiu clan.

Xie Heng also had something to do with Gan Maosheng, so he left Xie Jun at the Gan clan and went to the Thousand Battalion.

The Qiu and Gan clans were in the east and west of Yuanjiang County. It took two-quarters of an hour to get there.

The Qiu clan was also a merchant family specializing in the rice business. They had a reputation for generosity and kindness in Yuanjiang County, unlike the Jin family, who earned notoriety for disregarding human lives.

On the way, Madam Luo told Chuchu about the background of the Qiu clan. Old Mr. Qiu was pushed down and had a stroke because he was kind enough to save a child almost hit by a wicked slave of the Jin clan.

Zhao Chuchu was speechless.

The Jin clan indeed qualified for acts of evil.

Madam Luo sighed as she said, “Old Mr. Qiu has been bedridden for more than two years. I wonder if you have a solution. It will be great if you can cure him.”

“Let’s just focus on the patient first. I’ll do my best.” Chuchu didn’t guarantee the result.

If he had atrophied muscles, there was nothing she could do. After all, she could only save lives with her current level of healing powers. Such irreversible damage was out of her healing scope.

Madam Luo nodded. “That’s what I told the Qiu clan. My mother was lucky enough to escape danger because you happened to be in town. Old Mr. Qiu has been sick for more than two years. There is no guarantee that you will be able to cure him.”

“Madam, thank you for your understanding.”

“It’s only human nature. They can’t force you to cure people, right? Let’s be honest. If they still put you on the spot, then they are being unreasonable.”

“You’re right.”

Chuchu did not say that even if they wanted to make trouble, they would have to weigh themselves up first.

If the Jin clan was not enough to warn them, she didn’t mind making them hurt a little bit, either.

Only through pain could people be reminded.

When they arrived at the Qiu clan, the housekeeper had been waiting outside the door for a long time.

Seeing Chuchu and a group of others coming down from the sedan, he hurriedly greeted them with respect. “Mrs. Gan, Mrs. Xie, you are finally here. Please come in.”

Chuchu nodded slightly and entered through the door.

The doorkeeper ran fast and had already gone inside to report to the master.

Soon, members of the Qiu clan came out to greet them.

After exchanging pleasantries, Chuchu went straight to the point. “Where is the patient? Take me to him.”

“This way, please, Mrs. Xie.” Old Mr. Qiu had two sons, and the one in charge at the moment was Elder Mr. Qiu, who hurriedly took her over to the patient.

After entering his room, they didn’t smell an unpleasant odor from his years of being bedridden. Apparently, they had taken good care of him.

Old Mr. Qiu could not speak, but he could move his eyes.

Chuchu checked his pulse first before she lifted the blanket to look at his legs.

Probably because they had asked doctors to take good care of them, the muscles had not atrophied much.

“There is still hope.” She looked at elder Mr. Qiu. “However, you have delayed too long. I can make him talk and sit up, but to recover like before, that’s unlikely.”

“That is still better than now. Please, help him, Mrs. Xie. No matter how much you ask for, I am willing to pay it,” Elder Mr. Qiu solemnly requested.

“I beg you to save my father,” the other members of the Qiu clan also spoke up.

Chuchu replied, “I will do my best, but it won’t happen overnight…”

“As long as you can cure my father, I can wait, no matter how long it may take. I know that you have a family. I’ll also send someone to bring them here to live in my house. What do you think, Mrs. Xie?” he continued.

...

“No, I’ll stay with the Gan clan, but I’ll come over every day.” Chuchu declined his arrangement.

Afterward, she took out her silver needles and gave Old Mr. Qiu an acupuncture treatment in front of his family.

After seeing how fast and accurate her needling was, the family members were more hopeful.

Maybe she could cure the old man.

After inserting the needles, Chuchu wrote a prescription for the Qiu family to take medicine. It was already half an hour later when she removed the needles.

She used her healing powers surreptitiously, allowing Old Master Qiu to make a sound after the needles were applied.

Elder Mr. Qiu and the other family members were always filial. Seeing that the old man could make monosyllabic sounds, they all cried joyfully.

He quickly asked someone to prepare a sumptuous meal for Chuchu, with the ladies keeping her company.

Chuchu didn’t stand on ceremony either. After the meal, she carefully instructed them about the dos and don’ts while caring for Old Mr. Qiu. Elder Mr. Qiu noted them carefully, not daring to miss a single word.

“I will come here daily to give him acupuncture treatment in the next few days. He should be able to regain sentience in about half a month. Oh, right. I suggest you make him a wheelchair,” Chuchu said to Elder Mr. Qiu.

“A wheelchair?” He and his family looked at each other, having no clue what that was.

...

Chuchu continued, “It’s a cart with wheels that a person can push. Old Mr. Qiu is getting moldy by lying in the house every day. You can push him out every day for fresh air.”

Elder Mr. Qiu muttered, “But we’ve never seen one. I wonder if you can give us some suggestions on how to make a wheelchair? Cost is no problem.”
