“Eighty percent.” Sima You yue said confidently.
An eighty percent chance of success. This also meant that, when she had told Xuan Qiu He about her eighty percent chance of success back then, it was completely based off her ability to deal with that seal. As long as she was able to deal with that, she had a hundred percent chance of success of treating his mind.
“Although it’s not a hundred percent, I feel like Junior Sister’s eighty percent chance of success is equivalent to someone else’s hundred percent.” Han Miao Shuang had this level of faith in her.
“But, Junior Sister, what will you do if they renege when the time comes?” Su Xiao Xiao asked.
“If they renege, I will naturally pay them back. However, I must get that divine medicine no matter what.” Sima You Yue’s attitude was absolute. Since they had promised to give her the divine medicine in exchange for her treatment of Xuan Qiu He, if they backed out, she would naturally have her own ways of obtaining that divine medicine. It was just that she didn’t know if they would be able to deal with the consequence of that.
Just like Sima You Yue expected, the Xuan Qiu Clansmen did not immediately call on her. They let her rest in her little courtyard, saying that they knew Sima You Yue was treating her Senior Brother during this time and would talk about it again once she had finished.
They clearly meant that she was not to multitask.
They had expected this long ago, so Sima You Yue and the rest were not bothered. If they really let Sima You Yue treat Xuan Qiu He’s illness so easily, that would be the real cause of concern.
In the blink of an eye, they had already stayed in the Xuan Qiu Clan for ten days. During this period of time, Xuan Qiu He would come over every single day and chat with Sima You Yue or take her around the clan to tour around.
As for the fact that he was not taking her over to meet his clansmen, Xuan Qiu He was very apologetic as he said, “When I left, my Mother had also gone out due to some issues regarding the clan.”
The Matriarch of the clan was not around and others were not able to make the decision in her stead, so they could only delay this issue.
Sima You Yue expressed that she did not mind it, as she happened to need this time to treat Jiang Jun Xian. After this, she would be able to let go of Jiang Jun Xian’s issue and treat Xuan Qiu He’s illness better.
On this day, Sima You Yue had just finished performing acupuncture for Jiang Jun Xian and had just covered his sleeping form with a blanket when Su Xiao Xiao entered, saying that the Xuan Qiu Clansmen had come.
“Senior Sister has fed Eldest Senior Brother his medicine. Stay here and take care of Eldest Senior Brother.” Sima You Yue told Su Xiao Xiao.
Whenever Jiang Jun Xian finished his acupuncture session, he would sleep for a period of time. Sima You Yue said that it was good for him, and that it was the best for him to wake up naturally on his own. If he was woken up, the benefits would be greatly reduced.
Su Xiao Xiao nodded and sat down beside the table. Sima You Yue then went out alone.
Outside the courtyard stood a lady with her hair tied into a matriarch’s bun. When the lady heard sounds of movement, she turned around and saw Sima You Yue. she smiled lightly, causing Sima You Yue to recall a phrase.
Time may pass but the years remain still.
The lady was not particularly beautiful, but the impression she gave off was gentle and refined. When you looked at her, it caused one’s heart to calm down.
However, after seeing someone like Feng Ru Yan, Sima You Yue was merely a little stunned when she saw the lady.
“You must be Lady You Yue? I am He’er’s mother.” Sun Yu Wei smiled lightly towards Sima You Yue.
Sima You Yue took two steps forward and bowed to Sun Yu Wei, saying, “You Yue greets Aunt.”
At the same time, she sighed in her heart that it was no wonder Xuan Qiu He had such an immortal-like vibe. It was inherited!
Sun Yu Wei went forward and pushed her up, saying, “I went out a few days ago and only returned today. When I heard that you had arrived, I came over to take a look.”
“It should have been me to go over and visit Aunt, how could I let you come visit me.” Sima You Yue laughed a little sheepishly.
Sun Yu Wei appraised Sima You Yue. Her gaze caused Sima You Yue to feel a little awkward.
“He’er said that he believes in your medical skills, so I have also chosen to believe you.”
“Aunt, do you have something you wish to say to me?” Sima You Yue asked.
People like her would always have a ‘but’ hidden at the end.
“It’s like this. There is a servant girl by my side who has accompanied me since she was young. Later on, she was also the one to take care of He’er. She was injured in the past and suffers from some unmentionable disease. I was thinking of inviting you to take a look at her.” Sun Yu Wei said rather apologetically.
Although doing this was not that straightforward, Xuan Qiu He was the apple of her eye. She didn’t know much about Sima You Yue, so she did not dare to leave him in her hands just like that.
Sun Yu Wei finished speaking and a female walked in front behind her. She bowed lightly to Sima You Yue.
Sun Yu Wei said that she had grown up with her, which showed that she was around the same age as Sun Yu Wei. However, her face was full of wrinkles and her hair was grey. She looked like an elderly old servant.
If not because Sun Yu Wei had said this, it would have been hard for her to imagine that they were around the same age.
“I do not have excessive expectations for her appearance to recover to how it used to be. As long as her body can recover and accompany me for a few more years, it will be enough.” Sun Yu Wei saw that Sima You Yue looked contemplative and said.
Sima You Yue did not immediately promise anything as she said, “Aunt, I have to examine her first before I give you a response.”
“Then I will have to trouble you to take a look at her.” Sun Yu Wei nodded her head. She was neither arrogant nor impatient, a lot better than people her age.
“Aunt, please come with me.”
Sima You Yue led them to the guest hall before getting the servant girl to take a seat. She went to examine her body.
After examining the body of the servant girl, she inwardly muttered ‘no wonder’. To render even a hidden family helpless meant that the wound would not be small.
“The unmentionable disease of this aunty should have been plaguing her for a few hundreds of years already.” Sima You Yue said, “During these few years, Aunt must have used many different medicines to preserve her life. However, even if that is the case, this aunt here will not live past two years.”
“It’s true. It was because she had rescued me.” Sun Yu Wei’s eyes misted over as she said this.
However, what surprised her was that Sima You Yue’s medicinal skills were so powerful!
The doctors of the clan had said that this servant lady would not live past two years.
In the beginning, Sun Yu Wei did not really think of getting Sima You Yue to treat her illness. After all, the doctors of their clan had already declared that she no longer had any hope. She merely wanted to test Sima You Yue’s ability to see how much she could diagnose.
What she didn’t expect was that Sima You Yue was able to figure out the entire situation just from taking her pulse. Her medicinal skills were not inferior to their clan doctors in the least.
At the same time, a faint trace of hope swelled in her heart. She looked at Sima You Yue as she asked, “You Yue, seeing her situation, can she be saved?”
“It’s not that there is no way. It’s just rather troublesome. Also, the cost will be rather high. Furthermore, it will be very difficult for her to regain her appearance.” Sima You Yue siad.
The way Sima You Yue saw it, this servant lady’s body was like a wooden casket with a hole. No matter how much water you filled it with, it would leak out.
If she was to treat her, the amount of medicinal ingredients needed would not be easy.
Sun Yu Wei’s eyes shone, “Treat her! No matter what it takes, you have to treat her. You Yue, what do you need us to do?”
