章節 870: Chapter 870 Discontent

In the Zhou family, Zhou Shuren felt boundless envy when he heard from his wife that Chang Yi was willing to go abroad, yet he scoffed aloud, "Humph, in this era, conditions overseas are not good, especially when you're sick. I remember reading books that talked about bloodletting treatments abroad, and I'm not keen on going to see that."

Zhulan leaned close to her husband's eyes, "Just be stubborn with your words, you're clearly very envious. I know for a fact that the Xu family keeps several doctors on hand, who accompany them all year round."

Zhou Shuren was hearing this for the first time, "The Xu family actually keeps that many doctors?"

"Every time they go out, they bring two doctors, just in case one falls ill and there's no replacement. Not everyone can adapt to life aboard a ship, and with the food being bland, doctors are very important. Haven't you noticed that doctors have been quite in demand these past two years?"
