    Guan Xiyueposed herself. “Yes, she’s sitting in the room now.”


    Old Madam Sun raised her chin and walked into the house.


    Su Li saw a stern-faced old woman walk in with a few servants behind her. From this posture, she could guess the old woman’s identity. Su Li stood up from her chair. “Hello, Old Madam Sun.”


    Old Madam Sun did not respond. She sized up Su Li with her eyes.


    Was this the powerful doctor?


    There didn’t seem to be anything special about her. Moreover, she was so young. She looked like a liar!


    Su Li had a smile on her face. What she didn’t know was that Old Madam Sun had alreadybeled her as a “liar”.


    “Are you that Physician Su?” Old Madam Sun asked.


    Su Li nodded. “Yes!”


    Old Madam Sun did not hide her disdain for Su Li at all. “Do you know all the herbs? Our family is not an ordinary family. I advise you to leave quickly now. We won’t pursue the consultation fees you paid previously. Just treat it as buying food for you.”


    There was no need to be polite to such a chatan. Otherwise, she would definitely take a huge advantage of them.


    “Mother, you’ve misunderstood. Physician Su is a capable person, not the kind…’


    Seeing that Old Madam Sun had misunderstood Su Li, Guan Xiyue immediately wanted to defend her.


    Old Madam Sun nced at Guan Xiyue coldly and scolded unhappily, “Shut up.


    You have no right to speak here. Since when can you interrupt me?”


    Guan Xiyue shut her mouth resentfully and shot a look at Su Li. She then secretly got someone to invite Sun Yuangui back.


    If Sun Yuangui didn’te back soon, the house would be in chaos!


    Su Li was not angry at Old Madam Sun’s words. There were many people who doubted her medical skills. Old Madam Sun was not the first, and she would not be thest.


    If she was wrong for being young, then she was very wrong!


    Su Li smiled. “Since Old Madam Sun suspects my medical skills, why don’t you let me take your pulse? If I can’t take a good look, I won’t take a single cent.”


    She believed that her strength could crush everything. No one would make things difficult for a doctor unless she did not take her life seriously.


    Old Madam Sun nced at her. “You still want to y in front of me with your skills? It’s not impossible for you to show me, but what if you don’t?”


    Not everyone could take her pulse. If a liar wanted to trick her, she could watch how she would deal with her.


    Su Li said confidently, “This kind of small illness is not a problem for me.”


    Old Madam Sun snorted softly. “You make it sound better than singing. If you can cure me, I’ll give you ten taels of silver. If you can’t, disappear from my sight immediately. I don’t want to see you again.”


    Su Li took two steps towards Old Madam Sun.


    Old Madam Sun was so frightened that she took a step back!


    What was she doing? Why was she so close?


    Su Li looked at Old Madam Sun’s expression and said, “Does Old Madam often feel dizzy? Do things in your body or the outside world often feel like they are spinning? Sometimes, you can’t stand steadily, but the things in front of you don’t spin.”


    When Old Madam Sun heard Su Li’s words, she said in shock, “How, how did you know?”


    Other doctors could not see through these symptoms, but she did not expect a little girl to see through them now. How could she not be surprised?


    After reacting, Old Madam Sun felt that something was wrong. She pointed at Su Li and said, “Are you lying to me?”


    When Su Li heard Old Madam Sun’s words, she smiled. “Old Madam Sun, don’t forget that I’m a doctor. Observing, hearing, asking, and cutting are our most basic skills. If I can’t even tell this, I might as well go home and feed the pigs.” Old Madam Sun was at a lost of words. What she said made sense.


    Guan Xiyue chimed in, “Mother, Physician Su’s medical skills are very good.”


    Old Madam Sun red at Guan Xiyue.


    Guan Xiyue shut her mouth resentfully.


    “Thene over and take my pulse.” Old Madam Sun’s tone was not as domineering as before.


    Guan Xiyue heaved a sigh of relief when she saw this. Her mother-inw had a strange personality and was very domineering. She was deeply afraid that her mother-inw and Su Li would fight just now.


    Su Li walked over to take Old Madam Sun’s pulse and asked her about her usual situation.


    “Do you often feel impatient and lose your temper easily? Moreover, when you’re agitated, your dizziness will worsen,” Su Li asked.


    Old Madam Sun nodded vigorously. “Yes, that’s right.’


    Su Li lifted her eyelids to take a look and then looked at her tongue. She said, “You often feel tired and weak and you appetite is bad?”


    Old Madam Sun’s eyes lit up as she looked at Su Li. “Yes, yes, yes. You’re right about everything. ”


    From the looks of it, Su Li was definitely not a liar. If she was a liar, it was impossible for her to exin the symptoms so clearly. If she was a liar, she had to be a high-level liar to be able to do this!


    “Can you treat it?” Old Madam Sun asked.


    She had been suffering from this symptom for many years. She had seen many doctors who had given her many medicines but she had not recovered. Now, when she smelled the medicine, she felt nauseous and wanted to vomit.


    As long as she injected a few needles and took the medicine she prescribed a few times, it would be fine.


    Old Madam Sun grabbed Su Li’s hand and said, “Then swear that you’re not lying to me!”


    Su Li was helpless. Did she have to swear first to treat someone now?


    “Old Madam, if you don’t believe in my medical skills, then you don’t have to let me treat you. I advise you to find someone else!”


    She had always rejected such unreasonable requests. If everyone asked her to swear an oath, would she still be able to live? If she didn’t want her to treat her, so be it!


    Old Madam Sun did not expect Su Li to reject her so bluntly. Those people in the past could not wait to curry favor with her. In so many years, Su Li was the first person to reject her.


    The scene fell into awkwardness.


    Guan Xiyue stood out to ease the awkwardness. “Physician Su, don’t misunderstand. My mother has always met some quacks over the years. She’s just afraid and made you swear that you only want to buy peace of mind. She trusts you too much.”


    “Mother, don’t you think so?”


    Old Madam Sun also knew that Su Li had some ability. She could not offend someone with ability.


    Old Madam Sun chuckled. “Physician Su, don’t take it to heart. I was just joking with you just now. Treat me however you want. I believe you.”


    Sun Yuangui ran back while panting. When he saw Old Madam Sun holding Su Li’s hand and talking kindly while Guan Xiyue, who was sitting at the side, also had a smile on her face, he thought that the sun had risen from the west today.


    Sun Yuangui looked up at the sky.


    He had thought that the house would already be in a mess. He would have to clean up the tragic situation immediately when he returned. He had even thought of what he had to say and was waiting toe back to perform. Who knew that he was not needed at all!


    “Master is back.” Guan Xiyue was the first to see Sun Yuangui. She stood up with a smile..
