In the small courtyard, the old lady’s legs were acting up and the doctor was examining her.

Bo Mingyuan brought Su Ruanruan over. He bent down and greeted his mother.

The old lady forced her eyelids open and her gaze landed on Su Ruanruan. She felt a pang of pity.

Last night, Mingyuan had come to her late at night and told her about the child’s birth characters. No matter how much she thought about it, they couldn’t afford to keep the child.

Hence, the old lady got someone to bring a pair of jade bracelets to Su Ruanruan.

The young girl understood that the Old Madam was no longer trying to hold her back.

She said softly, “Uncle has given me enough.”

The old lady sighed in her heart. The gifts from the Bo family had long been taken away by the Su family.

‘This child doesn’t even have any parents. How pitiful.’

Thinking that the Old Madam was in unbearable pain, the doctor said, “Old Madam is going to suffer for a few days.”

Bo Mingyuan was a little anxious. “Doctor Gao, I know you’re capable enough to treat her.”

Doctor Gao was helpless. “The old lady’s illness cannot be cured, so we can only use medicine to ease her pain.”

Guizhi, who was beside the Old Madam, said, “She took the medicine in the morning but it still hurts.”

Her heart ached for the old lady, but the latter did not take it to heart. “I’m already so old. So be it.”

Just then, Su Ruanruan said softly, “Let me try.”

Bo Mingyuan frowned. ‘This girl is going to such an extent just to stay in the Bo family!’

Doctor Gao sneered in his heart. ‘If I can’t cure her, no one in Jiang City can! This young lady’s arrogant words are laughable.’

However, the Old Madam shocked everyone by saying, “Why don’t we let Ruanruan take a look?”

With that, Guizhi carefully rolled up the Old Madam’s pants, revealing the latter’s knees.

The old lady’s legs were so thin that they looked like skin and bones.

Su Ruanruan squatted down and reached out her hands to gently cover that area of pain.

Her fingernails were round and pink, and clean and cute.

The Old Madam was distracted for a moment but when she came back to her senses, she felt pain and cried out.

Su Ruanruan’s red lips parted slightly as she spoke in a soft voice, “The Old Madam is experiencing a gout flare.”

That shocked everyone. How could Su Ruanruan tell?

The Old Madam exclaimed excitedly, “This child is actually capable!”

She calmed herself down and said, “Jingyuan said that you studied art like her. Why do you know medicine?”

Su Ruanruan gently massaged the old lady as she replied, “My father was a doctor when he was still alive. When I was young, I read medical books together with him and learned some basic knowledge.”

The Old Madam was originally in so much pain that she was on the verge of death. However, Su Ruanruan’s massage had alleviated much of that pain.

The former looked at the young girl, who was half-kneeling by her side, and felt that this little girl was as beautiful as a painting, and very moving.

The old lady’s heart was filled with love. “Good girl, stop massaging me. Don’t let my old and dirty body dirty your hands.”

Su Ruanruan shook her head. “It’s fine.”

She then said to Guizhi beside the old lady, “Bring some ice over.”

Guizhi looked at Doctor Gao hesitantly. “We usually use warm packs.”

Unexpectedly, Doctor Gao said, “It’s fine! Hehe, perhaps the young lady’s method is better.”

He sneered coldly in his heart. ‘How dare a nobody try to prove her worth here? I can’t wait to watch a good show if she drives the old lady into a critical condition.’

With his approval, Guizhi quickly brought the ice over.

Su Ruanruan crushed the ice cubes personally and explained, “This way, it won’t be too cold.”

Then, she took a clean gauze and wrapped the ice up, pressing it flat and gently placing it on the old lady’s sore spot.

Doctor Gao’s eyes were burning as he waited for the old lady’s condition to worsen..
