Divine fortune teller and traditional Chinese medicine doctor

Chapter 41: I Want to Open a Clinic with Yuxiu

Li Mu arrived at Yang Yuxiu's bedroom and found her lying on the floor.

"Yuxiu! What's wrong?"

Li Mu called out, but Yang Yuxiu did not respond.

He quickly carried her to the bed, then pressed her philtrum firmly with his thumb.

At the same time, three fingers were placed on her wrist pulse.

"Cough cough..."

Yang Yuxiu coughed twice and slowly opened her eyes.

"Uncle Li... what happened to me?"

Yang Yuxiu saw Li Mu beside her, but her head was still spinning, and she asked with a somewhat blank look in her eyes.

"You fainted! Your pulse is weak and thready, a typical sign of anemia caused by malnutrition. Yuxiu, you need to take care of your health."

Li Mu made an accurate diagnosis based on Yang Yuxiu's pulse.

Moreover, he did not see any signs of illness in her, indicating that she did not have any organic disease.

Hearing Li Mu's words, Yang Yuxiu couldn't help but shed tears. Only she knew best what hardships she had endured over the past few years.

To pay for Cai'er's medical treatment, she scrimped and saved to the extreme, trying to make the most of every penny. She fed the child all the nutritious foods, such as fish soup, and she wouldn't even pick out the fish bones.

For more than three years, she hasn't bought herself any cosmetics, a single new piece of clothing, or even dared to scrub her underwear too hard, fearing she'd tear it and have nothing to change into...

The harsh and impoverished life left her malnourished for a long time, and this wasn't the first time she had fainted from anemia.

"Uncle Li, I..."

Yang Yuxiu leaned weakly against the headboard, unsure of what to say.

"Yuxiu, lie down and rest first. I'll go make you a bowl of goji berry and brown sugar water."

Li Mu knew Yang Yuxiu's hardships and felt very sorry for her.

He went home, made a bowl of goji berry and brown sugar water, brought it over, and then fed it to Yang Yuxiu with a spoon.

Yang Yuxiu drank while tears streamed down her face. This time, her tears were not from feeling wronged or sorry for herself, but from being moved.

In this world, besides Cai'er, only Li Mu would care about her.

Li Mu carefully and considerately fed her spoonful by spoonful, and with each spoonful of goji berry and brown sugar water, Yang Yuxiu felt a warm feeling in her heart.

"If someone faints due to exhaustion or anemia, wolfberry and brown sugar water is the fastest way to replenish blood and energy, but you can't drink it in big gulps. If you're weak, you can't rush to replenish your body; you have to drink it slowly. Yuxiu, you've really suffered these past few years because of treating your child's illness. I'll go and get you some medicine in a bit, and you'll be fine after a few days of recuperation."

Li Mu said with concern.

However, he did not rashly infuse Yang Yuxiu with Guiyuan spiritual energy, since she did not have any actual lesions, and he did not know what kind of changes the domineering power of Guiyuan spiritual energy would cause to Yang Yuxiu.

In addition, Yang Yuxiu's problem was simply malnutrition, which was not a big problem and could be cured with some traditional Chinese medicine.

"Uncle Li... you've already done me so much kindness, I don't know how to repay you. Let's skip getting the medicine, Chinese medicine isn't cheap these days..."

After drinking half a bowl of goji berry and brown sugar water, Yang Yuxiu regained some strength and her head wasn't so dizzy anymore. She wiped her eyes and said to Li Mu.

"How much would a few doses of medicine cost? Besides, your Uncle Li has recently had some good luck and made a windfall; he's not short of money now. Oh, and I was just thinking of discussing something with you."

"What is it, Uncle Li? If there's anything I can do to help, just let me know, and I'll do my best without hesitation."

Yang Yuxiu quickly replied.

"I'm planning to open a private clinic. I was thinking that you used to be a nurse, you have a nursing license, and you also have work experience. If you don't mind, how about we do it together?"

Li Mu looked at Yang Yuxiu and asked.

Indeed, he would need an assistant to open a clinic, and Yang Yuxiu was the best candidate.

She not only has nursing qualifications and work experience, but more importantly, she has good character, is hardworking, and has a good relationship with Li Mu. She is someone he can absolutely trust.

Of course, deep down, Li Mu did have some feelings for Yang Yuxiu.

I also genuinely want to help her get rich.

Perhaps after being together for a long time, and given his current physical strength, who can say he doesn't have a chance?

It's not uncommon for older men to marry younger women in real life.

After Li Mu rejuvenated, his hormone secretion became more vigorous, and he naturally developed a desire for sex.

And the only person who could stir up such thoughts in him now was Yang Yuxiu, the young widow across the street.

However, Li Mu felt that he was too much older than Yang Yuxiu and was too embarrassed to confess his feelings so abruptly. If Yang Yuxiu was unwilling, it would be too awkward for both of them and they would not even be able to remain friends.

"...Really? Uncle Li, you really want to open a clinic? Opening a clinic requires a lot of investment. Even the smallest clinic can't be opened without several hundred thousand yuan."

When Li Mu told her that he wanted to open a clinic with her, Yang Yuxiu's eyes widened in surprise.

"Yes, the funding is in place, now we just need a good assistant. I think there's no one more suitable than you. Are you willing?"

"Oh my god, how could I not want such a good thing? To be honest, being a sales assistant in a supermarket is tiring, doesn't pay much, and I often get glares and ignored by customers. Nursing is my profession! Uncle Li, if you really have the funds to open a clinic, I'll quit my job at the supermarket right away!"

Seeing that Li Mu wasn't joking, Yang Yuxiu immediately became incredibly excited, as if she'd been injected with adrenaline.

"Hehe, I'm glad you're willing. Don't rush to quit your job. I'll look for a good shop and rent it out in the next couple of days!"

Li Mu was very happy to see that Yang Yuxiu had agreed.

"Great! Uncle Li, your medical skills are so excellent, I'm sure you'll make a fortune opening a clinic!"

"We're sure to make a fortune!"

Li Mu specifically emphasized the word "we".

"Hehe, Uncle Li, I don't have any money to invest, so how could I be qualified to partner with you? I'd be content as long as I can work alongside you, assist you, and earn enough to make a living each month."

Yang Yuxiu chuckled and said very honestly.

"Yuxiu, didn't I tell you last time? We're family. Don't worry, your uncle definitely won't just let you earn a living; he'll make you rich!"

Li Mu patted Yu Xiu's shoulder and said confidently.

He is definitely not blindly confident. With his current medical skills, it would not be an exaggeration to call him a peerless doctor. Once the clinic is open, he will surely make a fortune.

"Okay, Uncle Li, don't worry, I'll definitely do my job well and won't let you down!"

Yang Yuxiu's eyes welled up with tears of emotion again, and she nodded vigorously.

For some reason, when Li Mu patted her shoulder, she couldn't help but recall the scene when Li Mu accidentally knocked her down when he burst into her bathroom.

It was as if his palms possessed some kind of magic; touching her body would give her a jolt of electricity.

She found it strange. Logically speaking, Uncle Li was already so old, and in her eyes he was a kind and gentle elder, but now she always felt that Li Mu seemed to exude an aura that only a middle-aged man could have.

This is an aura that possesses a natural attraction to the opposite sex.

This aura seemed to inexplicably stir up her suppressed desires.

Sometimes, when she looked into Li Mu's eyes, she could sense that his gaze seemed different from before; it appeared clearer, more spirited, and more attractive.

That look in her eyes seemed to make her forget that Li Mu was an old man who was almost seventy years old.

Yang Yuxiu didn't know why she had such feelings and thoughts, and her cheeks flushed slightly.

Sometimes, she even thought that if Uncle Li didn't mind her, it would be nice to start a new family with him.
