After rebirth, I went from a peasant girl to the richest man

Jiang Hui just felt that today's fun was fully realized under the care of her father and mother.

Only Jiang's father knew clearly that this was the process of his wife accumulating anger, and when it reached the peak, that would be the time for him to be in trouble.

He was in no hurry and slowly rolled up his painting. He waited for a while for the ink of the newly painted plum blossom to dry. Then he slowly carried a basket of drawings and walked back to the yard in the snow under the candlelight held by the servant.

That night, after Jiang Hui finished drinking the prepared anti-cold medicine, she fell asleep, and Jiang's father and mother broke out into the most intense quarrel in their history.

Fortunately, Jiang Hui has been independent since she was three years old and has her own yard, not far from her father and mother.

Although there were only a few walls between them, the green plants in the courtyard and the wooden windows and doors in the room were able to effectively isolate the sounds of the quarrel.

Rather than a quarrel, it was more like Jiang's mother unilaterally scolding Jiang's father for not taking care of his daughter's health, and that it would be bad if she developed a disease when she was young.

Jiang's father had a kind look on his face. At least when he came back, he sent someone to ask about his daughter, and she said that she had already drunk the cold-repelling medicine and gone to bed, and that there was nothing wrong with her body.

He then accepted Jiang's mother's reprimand with peace of mind.

Mother Jiang looked at Father Jiang's indifferent attitude and immediately became angry...

But before she could say anything, the maidservant beside Jiang Hui came over anxiously to report: "Master, Madam, the young lady has developed a high fever after sleeping for some reason!"

Upon hearing this, Jiang's father and mother's hearts, which had originally settled down in their stomachs, suddenly rose up, and they felt something was not right.

Jiang's father had a look of disbelief on his face, and he obviously hadn't yet reacted to the maid's words. He just stood there in a daze, looking at Jiang's mother who was calmly giving orders, at a loss.

"Jiang Fu, go get the court doctor... No, it's too late!" She glanced at the cold winter night outside. The heavy snow was falling in the middle of the night. The water on the road had begun to freeze, and the servants would only start cleaning before sunrise.

She immediately made up her mind, the handkerchief in her hand was pinched into several deep wrinkles, she placed her right hand on her chest, and tried to say calmly: "You!"

She pointed at Jiang Fu with her left hand and said in an unquestionable tone: "You are well versed in medical knowledge. Take the medical kit and go to treat the young lady. Tell me immediately if you need any medicine."

"Jishi Tang sent some cold medicines after winter. I'm going to have them prepared right away. The most important thing is to see if there's anything wrong with the young lady after being in the cold wind for so long, and whether she'll have any underlying disease."

Upon hearing this, Jiang Fu looked at his mother, who had a serious face. Although he had studied medical theory, he could never compare to an experienced doctor!

He just couldn't say anything to refute, because he saw Jiang's mother giving instructions to other people.

"You!" He pointed at the servant who followed Jiang's father. He was a very smart boy and was kept by Jiang's father on purpose.

"Now go outside and find Doctor Liu who is proficient in infants. If the doctor of Jishidiang is taken by the second house... go find someone outside!"

Compared with her unquestionable order to Jiang Fu, Jiang's mother deliberately took a closer look at the servant, and there was a hint of coldness in their gaze.

"Yes!" The servant glanced at the stunned adult, then immediately retreated according to Jiang's mother's instructions and walked quickly towards the gate.

In the dark night, the small courtyard was bright with the lights still on, and could still illuminate the figure of the servant who slipped and then quickly used his hands to steady himself, without stopping.

After another series of instructions, Jiang's mother's hands could be seen trembling slightly even through her handkerchief.

Jiang Fu's room was not in a remote corner where the servants lived, but a small bedroom not far from the yard. After receiving Jiang's mother's instructions, he quickly ran back to get the medicine box and went straight to Jiang Hui's yard.

Mother Jiang glared at Father Jiang. She didn't have the energy to blame him for anything. Instead, she asked someone to light a lamp in front of her and walked towards the courtyard next door.

Jiang Hui's illness was severe. It was not just a cold, but because she inhaled too much cold air, which damaged her lungs.

Although Jiang Fu had no experience, he had studied hard in Jishidiang in Kyoto, so it was not difficult for him to control a simple cold.

Before sunrise, the servant brought a doctor over. He looked unfamiliar and was not the expert from Jishidiang.

While the doctor was treating patients, the servant said softly in the corner of the secluded corridor outside the door: "Fortunately, Madam prepared for a rainy day. I went to Jishitang to find the medicine boy on duty. When the head heard that it was someone from the Jiang family, he immediately came out to greet them. However, when he saw that I was a servant beside the master, he was not so enthusiastic in his words."

"After receiving Madam's instructions, I did not directly tell her that the young lady was ill or that I was looking for Doctor Liu, who was good at infants. I just asked who the doctor on duty was as usual."

Jiang's mother's tone was neither cold nor indifferent, and there was no trace of surprise on her face. She asked as if it was a normal thing, "Did you see it clearly?"

The servant nodded and continued, "Originally, I was not allowed to see the duty book, but when I asked who the doctor on duty was, the pharmacist was not prepared and took a look from a distance. The manager immediately came over to stop the pharmacist's hand and closed the duty book."

He bowed to Jiang's mother and said, "Although I only saw it from a distance, I can still recognize the word Liu when I am with you."

"Okay, I got it!" Jiang's mother glanced at the situation in the house vigilantly. Jiang's father had now reacted from his daze and stayed by his daughter's bedside, watching Jiang Hui mumbling in her sleep, her cheeks flushed due to the high fever. He felt distressed and filled with self-blame and regret.

With the help of the light from the corridor and the candlelight from the room, Jiang's mother looked at her daughter, who was lively and active in the afternoon and now looked sickly lying on the bed. There was a trace of heartache and imperceptible cruelty in her eyes.

She looked at the doctor who was taking her pulse worriedly. The doctor was very careful. He frowned and examined her twice at first, but then he carefully opened Jiang Hui's tightly closed eyelids gently. The maid beside him immediately picked up a candle and moved closer to illuminate her. He repeated this process over and over again before he let out a long breath.

Seeing this, the servant beside him hurriedly said, "Don't worry, Madam. I invited this doctor from a clinic in the west of the city. It's a long way from Jishiditang in the east of the city."

"The doctor's family has been practicing medicine for generations. Although it is not as famous as Jishiditang, it is still somewhat famous in the west of Kyoto. Many local people think that Jishiditang in the east of the city is too far away, so they will choose to see a doctor in the doctor's clinic. His medical skills have also been witnessed by the people around him."

"I only remembered this person after I left Jishitang. I heard about him by chance when I went to the west of the city to do some work for you. Since my family also runs a clinic, I paid more attention and listened to him."
