Ah Bin, driving the horse carriage, not only sped up but also spurred the horse to move quickly, soon bringing Doctor Lin, who usually took the Su Family’s pulse, to the Han Family.
Doctor Lin, hearing that something had happened to the Su Family’s Miss, did not dare to delay and hurriedly followed the servant to the Han Family, where he saw that Su Wenyue’s injury was not severe and he breathed a sigh of relief. Nonetheless, he calmed down and carefully diagnosed and treated Su Wenyue.
Doctor Lin checked Su Wenyue’s wound first. Because her strength was not well controlled at the time, the wound looked somewhat frightening, but it was not a major problem and would not threaten her life; at most, it caused some bleeding. Han Yu often went hunting in the mountains, so he could handle such minor injuries very well. Doctor Lin nodded, but his brow furrowed when taking Su Wenyue’s pulse.
Han Yu had been relieved to see that Su Wenyue’s complexion had improved a lot, but upon seeing Doctor Lin’s reaction, his heart tightened again. His wife had been pampered since childhood and inevitably had a delicate body. These days after marrying into the Han Family, she had certainly suffered hardship, and he hoped nothing serious had come of it.
“Doctor Lin, how is my wife?” Han Yu barely managed to wait until Doctor Lin finished taking Su Wenyue’s pulse before he asked anxiously.
Doctor Lin pondered for a moment before saying, “There is no major issue, but she is somewhat weakened and has been frightened. She needs to rest well, lie in bed when possible, avoid strenuous and heavy tasks, and be careful with her diet. If there is any discomfort, have someone call me immediately.”
Having known the Su Family for many years, Doctor Lin had developed more than a casual relationship. Acting with Su Wenyue’s best interests in mind, he did not mention some uncertainties but still gave numerous instructions to be safe. Seeing how anxious Han Yu was about Su Wenyue, those instructions should prevent any problems.
However, Han Yu felt even more worried after hearing Doctor Lin. Although it was said there was no major problem, the detailed instructions from Doctor Lin had to be based on some consideration and reason. Moreover, if special food was prepared for his wife once or twice, it might be fine, but if it happened too often, others might object. Even with Mrs. Wang pregnant, she did not receive any special treatment, just an occasional stewed soup or boiled eggs. He could often bring back roasted game, but roasted food was too fiery and not particularly nutritious.
Hearing the doctor say his wife was weak, Han Yu’s current indulgence made him wish he could protect her with utmost care, but considering the current situation of the Han Family, where everyone lived together, doing too much was not good for Su Wenyue. Han Yu’s kindness was not just for appearance’s sake but truly considerate, and thinking this way, the idea of dividing the family came up again in his mind.
After Doctor Lin finished instructing Han Yu, he only prescribed a few tonics for Su Wenyue, which contained gentle, nourishing medicinal ingredients without any intense medicinals—as using those in excess might not be good for Su Wenyue herself.
Han Yu, except for some commonly used wound medicine, did not know much about medicinal materials and could not see what was special about these prescriptions. Nevertheless, Doctor Lin’s reaction was somewhat out of the ordinary. Under normal circumstances, with Han Yu’s astuteness and meticulousness, he would have surely noticed Doctor Lin’s unusualness. However, today, worried about Su Wenyue more than anything else, he did not focus on other matters. It is said that too much concern leads to chaos, and so it was with Han Yu.
