Doctor Xu made a sound of acknowledgment and sized them up. Finally, his gaze fell on Shu Yu.
"Since you want to treat him, I will say this first. My medical fees aren't low. I believe you've already inquired about it, hmm? Not to mention setting the bone fracture right, even the follow-up treatment would cost money. I'll give you a rough estimate. It'll cost no less than fifteen taels of silver to completely cure him."
Before Shu Yu could say anything, the old lady and Daniu both took in a sharp intake of breath.
Fifteen taels?
This was something that they wouldn't be able to afford even if they were sold.
The old lady thought that the medical fees would've been at most six or seven taels. If that were the case, the whole family could work hard and grit their teeth to come up with that amount.
Now, hearing Doctor Xu's words, fifteen taels was just the minimum. It was possible that he would have to pay more later on.
