Since the opening of the Fusheng Pavilion and the incident with leprosy, Liu Shimei hadn't returned to the ancestral home for over ten days.
Liu Fuyun had wanted to find her, but as a father, he did not want to lose face by searching for his daughter. He thought such matters weren't urgent and instructed the butler to inform him when Liu Shimei returned, so he could summon her to his study.
Little did he know, it would be several days later before he saw her!
"You insist on running a medical hall, but there's no need to be completely absorbed in it," Liu Fuyun said. He did not mind her opening a medical hall. In wealthy families, everyone needed to find a way to make a living. Relying solely on the court's salary couldn't sustain a large household, especially with so many servants. Starting a clinic and investing in others to run it was acceptable.
