Our House
“I… I just made some small renovations to the house.”
Renovations?
That wasn’t a big deal. Lucille didn’t think too much about it and casually said, “It’s our house. As long as you like it, you can do whatever you want.”
After that, Lucille hung up.
At that moment, Madam Grant called out, “It’s time to eat, Miss
Lucille!”
“Coming.”
Lucille put away her computer and cell phone and walked
down the stairs.
After lunch, Lucille lay down in the yard, basking in the sun.
Master Walton sat on a small stool and sighed. “Why don’t we go back tomorrow, Miss Bambo? I’m so bored. I can’t stay here any longer.”
Lucille glanced at him and asked with a faint smile, “How many patients have you guys treated?”
“Zero.”
Master Walton shook his head. “There hasn’t been a single one from the first day until now.”
Even though the banner for the charity clinic on the side of the
simple house was very eye–catching, the villagers never stepped in.
As for the reason, it was because everyone was shocked by how the students were partying the first night that they arrived. The villagers were not at all willing to let a bunch of untrained doctors treat them.
Therefore, the charity clinic was deserted.
Thinking of that, Master Walton couldn’t help but complain. ” Early this morning, I saw Samuel taking his sister, Joanne, and other students to look for a place to take photos. They were all taking pictures! They even wanted to take me with them. It’s disgusting.”
Lucille was not surprised at all.
Samuel was indeed capable of doing something like that.
He wanted to act like he was doing charity, so he had come there to take photos. It didn’t matter whether he was acting or not. As long as he went back and asked the public relations team to make some announcements, Samuel’s purpose would be achieved.
Unfortunately, Master Walton had gone with the genuine purpose of giving patients free treatment. However, it ended up being useless.
Lucille closed her eyes and enjoyed the cool breeze.
“In that case, let’s go back tomorrow…”
Since things had already gotten to that point, there was no need to stay.
Unexpectedly, at that moment, Eason rushed in from outside and shouted happily, “Lucille, there are so many people at the entrance of the village. They are all praising you. They’re
saying that you have excellent medical skills and want you to
treat them!”
Lucille opened her eyes, looking a little surprised.
“Hm?”
“It’s true!” Eason waved his hands and stomped his feet. heard them. They’re all saying the same thing. They even tried going to the simple house at the entrance of the village to look for you, Lucille. I told them that you were at my house, so they came here!”
As soon as he finished speaking, there was a lot of noise from outside the courtyard.
Master Walton ran over and saw a dozen villagers of different
ages
They gathered around the door of Madam Grant’s yard. When they saw Lucille and Master Walton inside, they said cautiously. “Um, we are from the neighboring village. We heard that patients are being treated for free here, so we just wanted to ask if you can treat us, too…”
Upon hearing that, Master Walton immediately understood That morning, Lucille had cured the old lady who was suffering from hysteria in the neighboring village. Hence, word got out and everyone wanted Lucille to treat them, too.
Master Walton opened the door and stated in a

Small Problems
Over the next few days, Lucille and Master Walton continued treating patients for free.
Among the people who came to see them, there were those with small problems like headaches and a fever. There were also those who had rheumatic leg problems, as well as
pregnant women with large bellies…
From the initial check–up, they had full trust in Lucille and Master Walton’s medical skills. There were even two twins with a rare disease who came to see them. Their parents didn’t have much hope, but Lucille stated, “They can be cured.”
She stayed up for two whole nights and actually managed to cure the two children.
From that day on, Lucille was known throughout the entirety of Talford Village. The nearby villagers also came to get free treatment for the very first time and sent her food, drinks, and
gifts.
“Here are some lemons I planted myself, Miss. They’re very tasty. Here you are!”
“This is wild fruit that I picked from the mountain this morning, Miss. It has been washed and is very sweet. It is unique to Talford Village. You won’t be able to find it anywhere else!”
“Over here, Miss…”
Lucille was surrounded by a group of enthusiastic and simple.
villagers. The bamboo baskets in front of her were practically piled up into a small mountain. There were all kinds of things inside, such as eggs and mushrooms, as well as bound
chickens, ducks, and geese.
There was a constant, faint smile on Lucille’s face. Patiently and gently, she said, “You don’t have to thank me. Please take these things back, everyone. We really can’t finish them.”
However, no one listened to her. More villagers put down their baskets and ran away at a high speed, for fear that Lucille would make them take it back.
Lucille felt helpless. She took advantage of a moment when there were no patients to sit under the shade of the tree and
rest.
Just as she was about to stretch, Lucille inadvertently raised her head to glance around. On the balcony on the second floor, Joseph was leaning against the railing leisurely. His seductive eyes were staring at her without blinking. There was a hint of teasing on his handsome face.
“You’ve been working hard, Miss Lucille.”
Obviously, he was poking fun at her.
Lucille picked up a wild fruit from the basket and threw it at him. She raised her eyebrows and said, “There you go. Eat it.”
Joseph raised his hand, and the small fruit landed steadily in his palm.
The small fruit was totally red. Since it had been washed, the color was exceptionally vibrant.
Joseph hesitated for a second and then tried to take a bite.
Lucille stared at him the entire time. When she saw that the usually distinguished Joseph was actually eating the wild fruit, she was a little surprised. She could not help but ask, “Is it sour, Joseph?”
“It’s very sweet,” he replied.
