    The olddy thanked Zhou Xiaoli profusely. In the end, she even took off a jade bracelet from her wrist and gave it to Zhou Xiaoli.


    Zhou Xiaoli refused repeatedly. “Old Madam, this is too expensive.”


    However, the olddy did not allow Zhou Xiaoli to refuse. She put the bracelet on Zhou Xiaoli and said, “Since you’re Yan’er’s god-sister, you’re also my god-granddaughter. Take this bracelet as a wee gift for you.”


    Since the olddy had already said so, if Zhou Xiaoli continued to refuse, it would be an insult to the olddy. Hence, she smiled and epted it generously.


    After a round of introductions, the olddy liked Zhou Xiaoli even more.


    She asked about her grandson’s condition.


    “Old Madam, your grandson’s condition has dragged on for too long. The situation is a littleplicated. I can only do my best.”


    The olddy was somewhat disappointed.


    However, the doctors had already said that her grandson had only a year or two left, so the olddy could ept her diagnosis as such.


    Inparison, Zhou Xiaoli said there was still hope.


    After regaining her senses, she said, “Miss Zhou, I’ll leave my grandson in your hands. If you need anything, just tell me. The Zhou Residence will cooperate with you in all ways. If you can cure my grandson, you’ll be a great benefactor to my entire family.”


    Zhou Xiaoli hurriedly said, “I’m a doctor. It’s my duty to cure and save people. Don’t worry, Old Madam. I’ll do my best.”


    The atmosphere between the three of them was harmonious. In the eyes of the First Madam and Second Madam Zhao, it was especially ring and hateful.


    Especially for Second Madam Zhao.


    The olddy watched Zhang Yan grow up. Usually, the olddy was closer to her as well.


    Now, a country girl came along and made the olddy so happy as well. So much so that she gave her such an expensive bracelet!


    Displeased, she muttered softly, “A country bumpkin. Grandmother thinks too highly of her.”


    On the other hand, the First Madam did not bat an eyelid. When she heard what her daughter-inw muttered, she red at her and made her shut up. Only then did she say with a gentle smile, “Old Madam, it’s a joyous thing for you to have another granddaughter now.”


    Zhou Xiaoli turned to look at her.


    First Madam continued, “Miss Zhou, right? You looked like a lucky girl. I like you so much as well.”


    “I heard from Yan’er that Miss Zhou’s medical skills are outstanding. If she can save Brother An who was poisoned, she can definitely cure Brother Ji of his illness.”


    Putting on a tall hat on Zhou Xiaoli.


    At this moment, Zhang Yan said, “First Madam, it was not just a day or two that my husband was sick. We had invited many famous doctors to take a look before and they said that even with medication, he could onlyst only a year or two.”


    “Sister Zhou can only try her best. It would be best if she can treat my husband.


    If she can’t, you can’t me her too.”


    The First Madam’s expression did not change, but the loving expression remained on her face. “Look at you, child. I feel sorry for Brother Ji too and hope that he can recover from his illness. I didn’t say that I would me Miss Zhou should she fail, did I?”


    As she spoke, she looked at the Old Madam with a smile. “Old Madam, don’t you think so? I knew it. Yan’er always thinks too much.”


    The olddy waved her hand. “Alright, alright. Yan’er, take good care of Miss Zhou now. Let’s visit Brother Ji.”


    As she spoke, she stood up.


    The First Madam immediately stepped forward and supported the olddy as they walked out.


    After they walked away, Zhang Yan sighed and said, “First Madam is thete madam’s sister and also the old madam’s niece.”


    “My husband was raised by the First Madam. She had always done her best in raising him. When my husband was two years old, she secretly drank contraceptive soup as well..”
