The Useless Miracle Doctor Consort Is Spoiled Rotten by the Prince!

Chapter 10

Su Yingxue could not figure out Chu Yihan’s intentions for taking her jade pendant, so she could only give up.

If a girl’s jade pendant fell into the hands of a male stranger, her reputation would be ruined if she was not careful. However, that person was Chu Yihan, the man that all the women in the Great Cheng Dynasty wanted to marry. Su Yingxue was not afraid that he would ruin her innocence.

She treated it as a time bomb that she could solve in the future. Now, she had to rush to the medical center to investigate.

The medical center was located at the end of Rongzheng Street. A bronze plaque read Tongchang Medical Center. The door was old and simple. There were two old doctors in the inner hall, and a young clerk was yawning on the table in front of the medicine cabinet.

Su Yingxue walked in and saw that this place was really dilapidated.

It was different from the shop that her mother had left for her, and she thought that this medical center did not have much income.

She coughed lightly. The two old doctors looked up at her. One of them said, “You’re not sick. There’s no need to see a doctor.”

“I’m indeed not here to see a doctor. May I know who’s the boss?” Su Yingxue said calmly.

The young man on the medicine cabinet counter replied lazily, “The boss isn’t here.”

Su Yingxue showed the contract to the clerk and asked him, “When will the boss be back?”

The clerk immediately restrained his lazy aura and brought Su Yingxue to the back hall.

Su Yingxue dusted the simple and unadorned tea table and realized that the wood was old.

She waited for the time it took to brew a cup of tea before a middle-aged man in a dark green robe entered. He cupped his hands respectfully at Su Yingxue. “I didn’t know that Miss had arrived. It’s my fault for neglecting you.”

Su Yingxue looked at him with her glass-like eyes, which were filled with doubt.

The man quickly said, “My surname is Qi, and I’ve been managing the medical center. I’m the manager here.”

“Manager Qi, I will take over the medical center for my mother. From now on, I will be the owner of this place.” Su Yingxue weighed the teacup lid. Her tone was calm, but it revealed a domineering aura.

Manager Qi chuckled. “Miss, it’s great that you’re willing to take over the medical center, but our center’s income is meager. I’m afraid it won’t be able to satisfy your needs. I hope you won’t be angry.”

Manager Qi had managed the medical center for many years and naturally knew that Su Yingxue was the first daughter of the Marquis’s Manor. She came to the medical center probably because she wanted money, but they did not earn much, so he had to make this clear.

“Aside from making money, the medical center also needs to earn a reputation. It’s not difficult to run it slowly, but I want all of you to run it according to my method. I’ll bear all the profits and losses.” Su Yingxue was very domineering.

“Miss, it’s good that you’re confident.” Manager Qi smiled on the surface, but he did not believe Su Yingxue’s words in his heart.

Su Yingxue was timid and cowardly. Her reputation as an idiot had spread throughout Jiang Du City. Did she even know medicine? How well could she manage the medical center?

She might even lose the land and shop in the end!

Su Yingxue nodded and left. The clerk behind Manager Qi said disdainfully, “Isn’t she that idiot Eldest Young Miss? She even dared to take over the medical center. Tsk!”

“Let her be. After all, the old master is gone, and there’s nothing left in this medical center.” Manager Qi sighed. Twenty years ago, the Tongchang Medical Center opened all over the Great Cheng Dynasty, and it was very famous. Now that it had declined to this extent, no one had revived it. It was also the end of its days.

“Manager Qi.”

Su Yingxue’s sudden return gave Manager Qi and the clerk a fright. Manager Qi remembered that Su Yingxue did not ask them for money just now, so he hurriedly took out the remaining dozens of taels of silver on the counter. “Miss, this is all the silver in the shop. You can take them all.”

Su Yingxue looked at the few silver ingots in his hands and shook her head. She placed a few medicines on the counter. “You have a weak spleen and internal deficiency. Your legs have suffered from rheumatism for many years. This medicine can help you recuperate. Take it.”

She left after saying that. Manager Qi stared at her back in a daze.

He opened the medicine and took a sniff. He turned around and asked the clerk in shock, “Did I hear wrong? She was right about my illness just now. You even prescribed me medicine?”

“No… But she didn’t even take your pulse, so how did she know? Her medical skills are too godly!” The clerk was also stunned.

Manager Qi inexplicably recalled his old master.

In Su Yingxue’s mind, the Little Ginseng started to run around again. “He despises you so much, yet you still treat him!”

Su Yingxue didn’t think so. “It’s fine if it’s someone else. Since I need him to take care of the medical center for me, I need to let him know my ability.”

“Oh, oh, oh, humans are so troublesome. Why don’t you just tell him that you know medicine and have such a large amount of medicinal herbs from the Medicine King Valley?” Little Ginseng’s crisp voice was filled with disdain.

“A person’s talent will arouse the envy of others. Before one becomes strong, one shouldn’t expose too much.” Su Yingxue’s state of mind became much calmer.

She had learned too many lessons in her previous life, so she had to plan for the long term.

As soon as she returned to the courtyard, she was still thinking about how to manage the medical center. There was a group of people standing in the courtyard. When they saw her, they all bowed respectfully and called out in unison, “Greetings, Eldest Young Miss.”

Su Yingxue frowned. Zhilan ran out and whispered into her ear, “Miss, these are all sent by the Marquis. They said that they are adding servants to our courtyard.”

Su Yingxue looked around. There were three maids, three old women, and four manservants standing in the courtyard. They looked neat and tidy, but she was not familiar with any of their faces. They were all Su Dingheng’s men.

On the surface, her father had sent someone to let her use it, but in reality, it was to monitor her, right?

Su Yingxue reprimanded coldly, “All of you, leave. I don’t need it.”

She walked into the house, and the dozen or so people knelt down in the courtyard in unison. The young maidservant Yuan Xiang, who was the leader, said, “When the Marquis sent us here, he instructed that if Young Miss refused to accept us, it would mean that you disliked us for not knowing how to serve you. Please punish us!”

Su Yingxue ignored them and let them kneel.

Entering the house, Zhilan bit her lip. “Miss, this is not the way to go on. What if news spreads and it ruins your reputation?”

“Does my reputation need to be ruined?” Su Yingxue did not care at all. She only thought, “However, it’s not impossible for these people to stay. Let’s see what tricks their master wants to play with me. After two hours, tell them to stand up, and I agree to let them stay. However, they must be loyal to their master and are not allowed to enter my bedroom.”

Zhilan felt that this was a good idea, so she did as Su Yingxue said.

She made this group of people kneel for two hours!

Two hours later, Yuan Xiang and the others were called up. Zhilan gave them a simple lecture and let them go to their respective jobs. Their knees were swollen and painful, so they could only barely finish their work and return to bed.

In Sunset Court, Su Yurou didn’t receive any news.

Yuan Ruo said, “Su Yingxue is really ruthless. She made them kneel for two hours before they went back to work. They were all so tired that they didn’t even have the strength to come and see you, Miss. We couldn’t find anything today.”
