Madam Li's condition was a chronic issue. It was not something that could be easily cured with a few acupuncture sessions. Besides, her age had taken its toll on her digestive system, and Liusishimei hadn't prescribed any internal medications.
She had only prescribed a daily herbal foot soak and intended to leave. To her surprise, Miao Fengyu and Miao Linglong were waiting for her in the main hall.
"The last time at the Thousand Butterfly Valley wasn't very pleasant, and I sincerely apologize for that, Eldest Miss Liu," Miao Fengyu maintained a considerably polite demeanor, referring to the incident when a courtesan had offended Liu Shimei.
Miao Linglong added, "Shimei, my Third Brother, well, he's not all that impressive and has this one flaw of being a bit too fond of the company of those less reputable. Please forgive him. In the future, he won't be allowed to bring such unsavory characters and tarnish our reputation."
