"No problem," the youth smiled indifferently, "Do you need a Great Strength Pill for your injury, guaranteed to make you recover quickly."
"..." Hearing the youth's words, everyone was stunned, regardless of how the youth could see that young master was injured, immediately promoting his own Great Strength Pills made people very speechless, this was too opportunistic.
"Sir is truly an expert, seeing my injury at a glance, but this injury has another meaning for me, I don't want it to heal so quickly," that young master said with a smile.
What, not wanting it to heal quickly, was this person sick, were there still people who hoped their injuries wouldn't heal quickly? The audience who didn't know the truth completely couldn't understand.
"Oh, is it related to your son?" the youth casually replied.
"Yes sir, yesterday when I returned home I learned my lover was already pregnant, three months..." that young master answered somewhat embarrassedly.
"Ah..." Those who were present yesterday were all very shocked, no way, this could also be calculated?
That young master looked at the youth very respectfully, also somewhat puzzled.
Although the youth in front was much younger than himself, having such frightening physiognomy skills was already enough to earn respect.
If he still had doubts before, now he definitely wouldn't doubt anymore, even his lover herself had just learned she was pregnant, how could others possibly know.
The timing was also so coincidental, exactly three months, three months ago he hadn't yet reached twenty-three, meaning the youth in front had calculated even this, it was truly too incredible.
"Very good, but unfortunately she won't become your wife, but can stay with you for life, I advise you to cherish this," the youth said, at this time the audience was somewhat strange, why couldn't she become his wife?
"This... sir truly speaks with iron certainty, are there any methods to resolve this?" that young master now believed even more that the youth in front was an expert, not many people dared to be certain about this matter, except for a few people in his family.
At this time he wanted to fight for his lover, asking the youth if there were any methods to resolve this.
The youth smiled and said, "People always have prejudices about social status, as long as you can see clearly, what difference does this status make, the most important thing is still your heart, not this status."
That young master fell silent, he was thinking deeply, he seemed to feel he had grasped something...
While that young master was silent, the audience became even more confused, what was this about, what were they talking about, and what exactly happened last night?
This matter was actually quite simple, when this young master returned home with a face full of disbelief, he discovered his lover, actually a little maid who had served him since childhood, was in the courtyard looking very worried, but when she saw him she pretended nothing was wrong.
That young master was a smart person, he knew she was hiding something from him, so he pressed her for answers, he knew this was the only way, she would never tell him if he didn't press her.
As a result, he learned she was pregnant with his child, already three months, just confirmed today.
At that time, that young master hadn't yet thought of the youth's prediction, his mind was full of her and the child in her belly, his head heated up, blood surging in his chest, he told himself he must tell his father about this, must make public this secret romance.
Moreover, he demanded his father arrange a proper marriage, the result was being severely scolded by his father, who even wanted to abort the child in her belly and throw her out.
As a result, he resisted with all his might, even injuring himself to show his determination to die, the result he got was that she could be taken as a concubine, this was the best result he could fight for, his family's greatest concession, he could only accept this, and she had no greater expectations, what was before her was already beyond her dreams.
After the matter ended, he began thinking of the youth from before, all these things about himself, didn't they exactly verify the youth's calculations?
At that time, he felt cold sweat on his back, this calculation was too incredible, it wasn't coincidence, then that youth was an expert.
If it was coincidence, there were too many, the probability was too low, so the result was very likely that the youth was an expert, so he came, if he hadn't been dragged by these people behind him, he would have come earlier.
Now he was even more certain the youth in front was a physiognomy expert, without explaining his situation, he already knew.
"I understand, I was attached to appearances, thank you sir," the young master said after his silence, finally understanding, as long as he and she were together for life, as long as he could give her happiness, could take care of her for life, what did it matter whether she was a wife or not, even if not a concubine but still his maid, it was the same.
"You're welcome, this counts as what I didn't finish saying yesterday," the youth replied, since he took people's money, he would be responsible to the end, at least would settle the value of those five taels.
"Sir, we came here today with another matter to request," that young master said while looking toward a young lady nearby, this young lady everyone remembered, she was yesterday's young lady Xiao Ai.
"Can you really diagnose illness?" young lady Xiao Ai looked at the youth and asked.
"Yesterday I already said, as long as it's what I know, I can do it all," the youth gave the same response, but now this phrase had completely different effect from yesterday, everyone believed what the youth said he "knew" was no longer superficial, but very high level, possibly unreachable by others.
He was now a hope, hope for some people in desperate situations.
"Then fine, I want you to diagnose illness," Xiao Ai frowned slightly, seeming to make a decision.
"Good, diagnosis costs one tael," the youth said with a smile.
"Here," Xiao Ai didn't think much, directly taking out one tael of silver, she even felt this was somewhat little.
"Stick out your tongue," the youth said to Xiao Ai.
"..." Xiao Ai was somewhat puzzled but obediently stuck out her little tongue.
"Give me your hand," the youth continued.
"..." Xiao Ai instinctively extended her hand, then understood what the youth wanted to do.
"Yours is a small problem, during those few days each month don't eat cold, raw, or spicy things, drink some ginger sugar water," the youth said.
"What? No, it's not me, I want you to look at my mother," Xiao Ai's face reddened, then she continued, she knew the youth had misunderstood her meaning.
"Your mother? Where is she?" the youth asked.
"She's at home, can't get out of bed, can you come with me to see her?" Xiao Ai said.
"Yes, ten taels of silver," the youth nodded, then quoted a price.
Damn, was this kid taking advantage of the situation? Ten taels, he really dared to ask.
"Sir, ten taels is no problem," Xiao Ai immediately said, she didn't care about ten taels, even adding another ten taels she wouldn't care.
"Isn't ten taels too much, can you even do it?" a young master sneered, he didn't really believe the youth was an expert, he wasn't the previous young master, didn't have that experience.
He seemed not to notice Xiao Ai's blush, if he knew why Xiao Ai blushed, he wouldn't have said this.
"These ten taels are house call fees, I've already marked the prices above, it's not raising prices on the spot," the youth said, at this time pointing to his banner, which indeed seemed to have detailed prices written, including house calls at ten taels.
"..." Everyone was speechless, if not for that young master thinking he was an expert, who would be willing to hire him at this fee.
House call fee of ten taels, even famous doctors were only this price, or even less.
The youth continued, "If you think it's expensive, then have someone come here, one tael of silver, I can diagnose her illness. If you don't trust my medical skills, then please find someone more skilled."
"Sir, please don't misunderstand, I don't think it's expensive, and I won't doubt your medical skills, here are ten taels, please come with me," Xiao Ai was somewhat anxious, glaring fiercely at that talkative young master.
"Xiao Ai, I'm doing this for your good, there are many frauds nowadays," that talkative young master wanted to explain something, but was quickly interrupted by Xiao Ai.
"Stop talking, whether he's a fraud or not I know myself, no need for you to say more," Xiao Ai said coldly.
By this time, he should have known to shut up, but this talkative young master perhaps really loved talking, he continued, "How would you know, just because of what someone said, even if that could be trusted, it's just Taoist mystical arts, this is medical skills, look how old he is, several years younger than us, can he be proficient in both physiognomy and medical skills? Even if he could, he couldn't possibly compare to those famous doctors..."
Although this talkative young master was very talkative, undeniably what he said had some logic, to the audience it all sounded theoretically correct, the youth in front was too young, having physiognomy skills was already incredible, now adding medical skills.
This seemed indeed somewhat incredible.
"He can, because just now he already saw my problem..." Xiao Ai said, and when saying this, her face reddened again.
"What problem? Did he examine you just now?" that talkative young master was very puzzled.
"This..." Xiao Ai's face became even redder, stammering and unable to speak.
"Why are you asking about this, it's none of your business, I also think this sir can do it," a young lady nearby said, helping Xiao Ai speak, and several other girls also joined this camp.
Others might not understand, but how could these girls not understand what just happened, the youth had so easily seen Xiao Ai's small problem, this small problem was something girls were embarrassed to mention, which was why Xiao Ai blushed.
Although it was just a small problem, at this time Xiao Ai wasn't having an episode, being able to see the problem in this situation showed the youth's medical skills weren't weak.
Although he might not necessarily be able to treat Xiao Ai's mother, there was still some hope.
