Capítulo 4: No genius doctor
Xu Chenyao quickly got dressed and packaged the medicine and herbal food in a food bag which also had compartment for carrying drinks.
"Looks good.."
She zipped her bag and wore the geta, before she left the house.
"Huan province, sigh too many annoying fat cats there.."
She slung the bag over her shoulder as she walked out of the building.
Stopping the cab, she got in "Huan province.."
The driver eyed her seeing her outfit, it was rare to see woman dress this traditionally maybe she was going to a party.
"That would be 250 yuan.."
Xu Chenyao nodded had only 500 in cash with her as she made most of her payments using wechat.
Leaving uptown, this was were the more than average and nouveau riche stayed, after this area was were the fat cats lived.
"Are you going to a function young ma'am?"
"I just dress this way, my family comes from a long line of traditional dressers."
The driver chuckled, believing she was just one of those cosplayers because no one walked around like this, not even the ones from country G where these dressing style originated from.
"We're here..."
He parked the car by the side, taxis where not allowed inside Huan province, so except one was living there, they would have to go in on foot.
"Thank you.."
She handed the driver the bill and walked to the post.
"Are you here to see someone?"
The gatekeeper lips raised, another weirdo, a beautiful one at that.
"I'm here for the Liang family, I'm Sheng yī.."
The gatekeeper blinked, as he looked at Xu Chenyao, she had veil covering her nose down, so he could only see her eyes.
"Are you the one the liang's call Gui yi, the ghost doctor?"
"I don't know this ghost doctor you talk about? I came from the countryside to see the Liangs.."
Xu Chenyao calmly denied being called a ghost doctor but instead diverted the gatekeeper's attention to her coming from the countryside.
The gatekeeper nodded, maybe their style of dressing was different in the country side.
"Can I go in now, it's rude to keep a lady waiting.."
Xu Chenyao muttered impatiently, time wasn't on her side today.
"Ah..yes, sorry.."
He opened the gates and Xu Chenyao strolled in, she sighed instantly, she did not miss this place.
The liang's house was fairly close to the gate so she didn't have to walk much before she got there.
Her patient was a kind old lady, living with the worst set of people.
A trashy son-in-law, a useless and stupid daughter, with three peas for brains grandchildren.
They were honestly the ones who shorten this granny's life and not even her sickness.
Bracing herself, she pressed the doorbell, this was her last treatment so hopefully she won't be coming back anytime soon.
The door open, a chubby lady in her thirties came to view, she was wearing an apron with some stains on it, which meant she was coming from the kitchen.
"Gui Yi!"
The woman's eyes widened as she took a step back, somehow seeing Xu Chenyao who her mother called a genius doctor and her outfit striked fear into the woman's heart.
"Bring me to your mother.."
Xu Chenyao lips twitched, what kind of rumors were they spreading about her. She thought to herself not minding the terrified look on the woman's face.
She nodded and took Xu Chenyao upstairs, getting close to the room, Xu Chenyao was hit with a wave of herbal medicine and knew this was the room.
"Did she have any other symptoms?"
Xu Chenyao wanted to know so she could devise a treatment plan with western medicine.
"No, she's been energetic after her last treatment.."
Xu Chenyao stroked her chin, then herbal medicine was working perfectly.
"Mother, Gui Yi is here..."
The old woman's face lit up when she was the familiar purple veil.
"Gui Yi, this old woman pays her respects, thank you for treating me.."
Xu Chenyao placed the medicine bag down and sat on the wooden chair next to the bed.
"I'm no genius doctor granny Cheng, I'd suggest you call me by my name Sheng yī.."
The old woman shivered and nodded, there was something about Xu Chenyao's aura that made people bow to her.
"Thank you, now this is your last medicine and herbal food...you can have the medicine now but the food can be eaten later. And make sure no one eats it this time because I won't be making another one. But feel free to order some weight-loss herbal food for your children and yourself maybe.."
The woman blushed feeling embarrassed not because Xu Chenyao had called her fat but because her children had no self control when it came to food and had eaten the herbal food meant for her mother during the first day of the treatment.
"Is it expensive?"
"No, it's affordable and I can give you some tips on how to make them at home. You're children are at the stage where they need to run around and burn these fat but they don't, they sit around watching tv if they're not in school,that's an unhealthy habit.." she paused as she took note of granny Cheng's complexion.
"And also they shouldn't be given food whenever they ask, it leads to uncontrolled eating habits. Remember they need more vegetables than sweets, sweets should be given after they're done playing for that little sugar rush."
Opening the bag, she brought out the congee and handed it to the woman.
"Their daily food should consist of vegetables,eggs and less oily food.."
The woman nodded, taking notes as Xu Chenyao talked, she would still have to buy those herbal dishes but she could use these recipes as backups when she couldn't afford it.."
Xu Chenyao opened the jar and handed it to granny Cheng, she had made it a little sweeter this time though the garlic and ginger would make her chest feel hot for a minute or two.
"I can give you discount when you wish to buy, it costs 100 yuan a meal but you get a 20% discount so 80 yuan per meal.."
The woman smiled as she bowed, this whole treatment had cost them a lot so hopefully they would be able to get back on their feet, now that her mother was recovering quickly.
"I'll pay the 40 thousand yuan right now, please scan the code.."
Xu Chenyao brought out her phone and scanned the code, the money entering her account with a ding.
"Thank you, Sheng yī this old woman owes you her life.."
"No, what you owe me is a review and a picture for my page.."
Granny Cheng nodded and Xu Chenyao asked Mrs. Liang to take their picture.
"Alright, don't forget to take the congee soon.."
Xu Chenyao picked up the medicine bag, it's was already 6:30 pm, barely enough time to buy what was in her list.
"Will have to do it tomorrow.."
