Liu Renli was stunned, and then all his arrogance dissipated, and he stomped his feet and said indignantly.

"Xiu'er's fiancé is the second brother of my classmate Liu Mingshun. Because of the same surname, Liu, he got closer. He went to Jinan Prefecture to submit a tax bank. He happened to meet Liu Mingshun. He is now promoted to magistrate. His second brother won the provincial examination this year to obtain the Yuan Dynasty."

Liu Renli didn't continue, but Zhou Heng had already understood that Liu Mingshun was promoted to an official position, and his second brother had a smooth future. He thought that Liu Xiu'er was annoying, so he used the disease of goiter to talk about the matter here.

"Don't bother, if you're wrong because of this worry, Zhou Heng thinks this is a good thing. His brother is so domineering as the prefect, even if Miss Liu marrys him, can he live a peaceful life?"

Liu Renli was stunned, "I saw Liu Jieyuan, and he looked domineeringly. He looked annoying. As you said, Xiu'er was indifferent. If she was married, she would definitely look down on him."

"So, Lord Liu should be happy, why bother so worried? Miss Liu can go back to recuperate after removing the stitches today. Isn't this the biggest joy?"

When Liu Renli heard this, his tight brows loosened a little and nodded to Zhou Heng.

"It makes sense, by the way, when will your clinic be opened?"

"today."

Liu Renli opened her mouth wide and looked around for a week.

"Today? It seems like this is unprepared?"

Zhou Heng nodded, "No need to prepare, let's go, I'll remove the stitches for Miss Liu first. I'll open the business after you leave."

After Zhou Heng said that, he walked towards Ward No. 1. After knocking on the door, Aunt Zhang opened the door and saw Zhou Heng and Liu Renli, he quickly bowed.

"Ms. Liu is waiting for Dr. Zhou."

Zhou Heng walked into the room and saw Liu Xiu'er standing at the window and nodding slightly at her.

"Ms. Liu, come with me to change the dressing room. Let's go to remove the stitches, and the others will stay here and wait."

Liu Renli didn't say anything, Chuntao stuffed the small mirror to Liu Xiu'er.

"Miss, don't panic."

"Silly girl, why am I panic?"

After saying that, he followed Zhou Heng to the dressing room next to the operating room. The room was not big. Liu Xiu'er came here once a day. He smelled the smell of alcohol in the room and felt inexplicably at ease.

Without Zhou Heng's instructions, she walked to the round chair and sat down. Zhou Heng cleaned his hands, walked to Liu Xiu'er's side, and slowly opened the gauze.

The wound heals very well. If you ignore the sutures, you can see a gap at this moment. A layer of grease on the surface is probably because you applied horse oil yesterday.

Zhou Heng carefully disinfected each suture, lifted it up with tweezers and moved it, looking up at Liu Xiu'er with her head tilted.

"Does it hurt?"

Liu Xiu'er could feel Zhou Heng's breathing sprayed on her neck, and her wounds and cheeks were a little hot, but she still looked back at Zhou Heng.

"It doesn't hurt, it's just a little itchy. It's better to apply the shred cream."

"This is healing, so I'll start to remove the stitches now. Don't be nervous. Even if it hurts, it feels like a mosquito bite. In order to heal better, I won't need anesthetic."

Liu Xiu'er dared not move, for fear of disturbing Zhou Heng's movements.

"Well, I'm ready."

Seeing Liu Xiu'er closing her eyes slightly and her eyelashes were trembling, Zhou Heng knew that she was still a little nervous.

Grab a pair of scissors soaked in the disinfectant, wipe it clean, and cut the sutures one by one with them, then pull out the sutures one by one. Finally, Zhou Heng disinfected the wound again.

Sure enough, there is almost no wound to see without the sutures. It seems that Liu Xiuer has a strong healing ability, and her jaw to her neck no longer turns red, and she is completely normal skin color.

"Okay, Miss Liu will look in the mirror."

Liu Xiu'er quickly raised the small mirror, and from behind her right ear to her neck, there was a thin pink mark. The slender neck was gone from the purple-red color it had before, and the fingers holding the mirror were a little white.

Liu Xiu'er stood up and wanted to bow to Zhou Heng. Zhou Heng quickly turned to salute him. The most unbearable thing in ancient times was that he would kneel every time.

"Ms. Liu, don't do this. She will come to follow up every month in the future. At least one year of follow-up. I have someone prepare pills for you, which need to be taken daily, so that it can suppress the chance of recurrence."

Liu Xiuer shook her head, "Doctor Zhou, I'm not giving you a gift. Maybe you feel a little abrupt. After this operation, I admire your medical skills very much. I want to learn medical skills with you."

Zhou Heng was stunned. Just now, Liu Renli said that she had been dismissed from the engagement, and Liu Xiuer was about to become a disciple here. What was going to make a fuss?

"Ms. Liu wants to learn medical skills from me?"

"Yes, since I have calcification, I have read countless medical books. Every time the doctor prescribes me medicine, I have carefully studied it. I can tell which one is stronger and which one is weak. If you don't talk about surgery, just the Cinnabar Anshen Pills are enough to impress people."

Zhou Heng didn't know how to answer for a moment. The magistrate's girl wanted to be her apprentice, and she was a female apprentice. The girl was so angry that she looked, but looking at her appearance, she didn't seem to know about breaking the engagement.

"Zhou believes that this matter needs to be discussed for a long time, at least Mr. Liu nodded, otherwise you will not be able to study with peace of mind, right? Besides, it seems that there is no woman studying medicine in this Daliang Kingdom."

Liu Xiu'er pondered for a moment, then raised her head and looked at Zhou Heng again.

"There is a female doctor in the palace. This is a palace maid who studies with the imperial doctor and needs an exam. However, I understand what Dr. Zhou said. My brother is worried about breaking off the engagement, so I will discuss it with him. If my brother agrees, I hope Dr. Zhou will not refuse and accept Xiu'er's apprenticeship."

Zhou Heng paused, but he didn't expect that she already knew about breaking the engagement.

Staring at Liu Xiu'er's eyes, she did not see any grief in her eyes, but instead seemed to have a hint of relaxation, which shows that she didn't seem to care about this marriage.

"Don't worry, you have to rest well now. Apply the shred cream every day. The scar will be repaired for more than a month. As for the marriage, I have talked to your brother. From another perspective, it may be a good thing. It's a blessing to lose your fortune. Now you are out of trouble with the flesh galls and can live the way you want."

Liu Xiu'er suddenly raised her eyes and was extremely surprised by Zhou Heng's words. Although she did not shed tears, her eyes were filled with water vapor and she smiled slightly.

"Thank you, Dr. Zhou, for your incurable disease for many years, and you have been indifferent to life and death. Today, it seems like you are reborn. Xiu'er will live a life and will not be decadent."

As soon as he finished speaking, Liu Renli stretched out his head in with a curtain.

"Disassembled?"

Zhou Heng glanced at him, nodded and said:

"It's already healed. Within half a month, Ms. Liu still has to wear a veil or a scarf to cover it. The wound is afraid of sunlight. If it is sunburned, the color will become darker. After all, the skin there is a new life."

Liu Renli looked at Liu Xiu'er's wounds carefully, her eyes widened. This was the first time he checked so seriously after Liu Xiu'er's surgery, and turned around and looked at Zhou Heng.

"Your medical skills are simply amazing. My little sister's scars are almost impossible to see. If you don't know that she has suffered from illness, you can't imagine what she was like before."

Liu Xiu'er pulled Liu Renli's sleeve, "Brother, let's say goodbye. I heard from Aunt Zhang that Huichuntang is about to open today. I think it will be very busy. Let's not bother you. After all, because I am here, their opening date has been delayed again and again."

"Okay, let's go."

Liu Xiu'er stomped her feet and said that her elder brother's brain was just a lump of wood. She said so, why can't she understand?

"It's good that Xiu'er will go home alone, brother should stay. People in your yamen are often injured. Doctor Zhou has unique features for external injuries. Wouldn't they all take what they need?"

Liu Renli was stunned and looked at Liu Xiu'er in confusion, thinking about the first half of the sentence, and returning home alone.
