Chapter 559: Chapter 160, Taking Action to Save Someone
Yun Jinnian moved very slowly, gently and patiently feeding the woman water.
"Will she make it?"
Several women discussed on the side.
The entrance to Qiaoshi Pavilion was also crowded with people, all talking nonstop.
Few in Capital City knew Yun Jinnian, and even fewer were aware of her superior medical skills, mainly a few households with strict lips that would not spread rumors.
"Look, the woman still hasn’t moved; could she be dead?"
"Did she die from the fall? Or was it the treatment?"
"Hard to say!"
Hemei and Henuan were trembling with anger.
"You people, do you know who my miss is? Do you know how precious my miss’s medicine is? You all pretend to know when you don’t! If you really had the skill, why don’t you come and check on this miss? Instead of just running your mouths without any real ability!" Hemei retorted sharply.
Her voice was cold and stern, with quite an imposing manner.
"You brat, how old is your miss, you..." someone retorted with a flushed face.
"So what if she’s young? Being young does not mean she has no ability. On the contrary, why are you so angry? You’re older, if you’ve got the skills, why don’t you come and see if you can wake this miss up!" Hemei snapped back vehemently.
"You, you..."
Faced with doubt, Yun Jinnian remained calm, continuing to feed the woman water.
She was bleeding, yet she took no action.
First, she had no acupuncture needles; second, she carried no wound medicine; third, she did not wish to invite trouble.
She had used the Blood Lotus Elixir to sustain the woman’s life. The injury was to the woman’s head and had not affected her internal organs, neither had any bones been broken. The injury to the head was severe, but after taking her Blood Lotus Pills, it was no longer a major problem.
"The doctor is here, the doctor has arrived!"
The crowd parted to create a path, and a doctor in his forties or fifties hurried over with his medicine box.
After checking the pulse of the woman on the ground, he frowned and remained silent for a long time.
"How is it?" Yun Jinnian asked indifferently.
"This..."
The doctor considered his medical skills to be quite good.
"She can be saved, can’t she?" Yun Jinnian asked again.
Upon hearing this, the doctor looked at Yun Jinnian, stood up, and saluted her, "Was it the young lady who treated her earlier?"
"Yes!"
"Did the young lady feed her some sort of elixir?"
"Yes!"
The doctor suddenly breathed a sigh of relief, "The young lady’s medical skills are beyond mine. Could the young lady perhaps prescribe a formula for this woman?"
Yun Jinnian thought for a moment before saying, "Very well!"
On the side, pen, ink, paper, and inkstone had already been prepared. Yun Jinnian wrote a prescription, allowing the doctor a glance.
"The prescription the young lady wrote is very gentle!"
"She has already taken a life-sustaining pill. Taking strong medications now would be harmful. Follow the prescription, prepare the medicine with five bowls of water reduced to one, and feed it to her!" Yun Jinnian spoke, then turned to the young ladies, "Which one of you is her relative or friend?"
A woman clad in pink clothes came out slowly, "I’m her cousin!"
If it was the cousin who got hurt, this cousin had been hiding behind the crowd.
"Take your cousin home. However, it would be best to have a doctor take a look, especially since it’s a head injury!" Yun Jinnian finished speaking. After the woman was lifted onto a wooden plank and taken away from Qiaoshi Pavilion, Yun Jinnian then went upstairs.
As for Qiaoshi Pavilion, they presented two pieces of jewelry to the woman as an apology, even though the fault was not theirs, the injury had happened at their premises.
Once everyone left, the servants immediately cleaned up the ground and stairs.
As soon as Yun Jinnian left, many people started gossiping.
"Who is that, really? So young and already so skilled in the medical arts?"
