After the time it takes to drink a cup of tea, Steward Yu finished and invited Wei Ruo in.

Wei Ruo and Xiumei returned to the room. Although Steward Yu was a bit clumsy, he had applied the medicine and bandaged the man according to Wei Ruo’s instructions, and even helped him put his clothes back on.

Xiumei brought in the decocted medicine and, together with Steward Yu, fed it to the man.

Saying “fed” was a bit generous—it was more like forcing it down his throat. The actions were rough, but at least the medicine got into his stomach.

Then Wei Ruo checked the man’s condition again. His life force was quite strong, but whether he could make it through was still uncertain.

“Miss, will this man survive?” Steward Yu asked worriedly. He had just realized the extent of the man’s injuries when applying the medicine.

“We’ll leave it to fate. I’ll go into the city later to get more medicine, and have Xiumei bring it over. At 7–9 p.m, boil it and feed it to him again. Also, keep the charcoal fire in this room going. Check on him again tomorrow morning. If he’s still alive, that means he’s pulled through. If he’s stopped breathing, then he didn’t make it,” Wei Ruo said.

“Understood, I’ll keep watch over him tonight,” Steward Yu noted her instructions.

Since they didn’t want too many people to know about this, Steward Yu intended to take care of everything himself.

When Wei Ruo looked at Steward Yu again, there was a bit more appreciation in her eyes.

Previously, Wei Ruo had only recognized his work ability and attitude, but after today’s actions, she gained a new level of respect for him.

However, Wei Ruo didn’t say much at the moment. Due to time constraints, she and Xiumei left the estate ahead of time.

Later, Wei Ruo returned to the Colonel’s Residence, while Xiumei went out alone. She took the prescription from Wei Ruo to a pharmacy, collected the medicine, then rushed to the estate to deliver it to Steward Yu. Then she returned to the Colonel’s Residence before nightfall.

The next day, before going to Tianqin Garden, Wei Ruo first went to the estate.

Steward Yu joyfully told her, “Miss, he’s still alive! He’s still breathing!”

“Good. Then continue with the same prescription, three times a day,” Wei Ruo instructed.

“Understood.” Steward Yu nodded and remembered it.

“These next few days will be hard on you, Steward Yu,” Wei Ruo said.

“It’s not hard work at all. Being able to help you, Miss, is my honor. I don’t find it hard,” Steward Yu said.

Since she had to hurry back to Tianqin Garden, Wei Ruo didn’t say much more to Steward Yu. She only confirmed that the man had passed the critical stage before leaving in a hurry.

When she arrived at the class at Tianqin Garden, Master Wang Caiwei was already there, but kept covering her mouth and coughing.

“Master, have you caught a chill?” Wei Ruo asked, noticing something unusual.

“Probably so. It’s nothing serious. I’ve already taken some medicine,” Wang Caiwei replied.

“The weather has been cold lately, Master should take extra care. I have a jar of loquat syrup* here. Please mix it with warm water. It can soothe the throat and clear the lungs, relieving coughing symptoms.”

-It is a traditional Chinese herbal remedy made from loquat fruit (枇杷), often used to soothe sore throats, relieve coughs, and nourish the lungs.

Like performing a magic trick, Wei Ruo took out a small round porcelain jar.

The jar wasn’t big—it could be held in one hand. It was white with blue floral patterns.

“Miss Wei, why are you carrying something like this with you?” Wang Caiwei asked curiously.

“Lately, many people have caught colds. Even in my household, several people have started coughing, so I prepared more of it ahead of time—just in case,” Wei Ruo answered.

“I see. Miss Wei, you are truly gentle and thoughtful,” Wang Caiwei praised.

“Sir, please mix some with warm water first. It’ll make your throat feel better,” Wei Ruo said.

Wang Caiwei nodded and got up to ask a maid from Tianqin Garden to bring her some hot water.
