After the divorce, I returned to my village and became a legendary healer.
Chapter 31 Broken Ribs
The next day, Chen Shi'an was listless all day, waiting for news!
Shang Jiahui didn't come, but her mother did. "Mom, what brings you here?"
"Shi'an, you don't know, the village is haunted," Zhao Mei said to Chen Shi'an.
"What happened? Tell me." Chen Shi'an's eyes lit up.
"There's a doctor named Yang Hongyu at that small clinic in our village. I heard he spent the night in a coffin and was only found in the early hours of the morning. He was completely terrified."
"That face was as white as a ghost," Zhao Mei described vividly!
"Some people in the village say that Yang Hongyu committed a terrible crime. He prescribed the wrong medicine and caused the death of Old Zhang in our village. Old Zhang had no family, and in the end, the matter was left unresolved."
Chen Shi'an was speechless. Rural people believe in this kind of thing. When someone suffers misfortune, they easily associate it with retribution.
Good people say others have a hard life, but bad people say it's retribution.
Being struck by lightning is a natural phenomenon, but to curse someone for being struck by lightning is almost like digging up their ancestral grave.
"What about Yang Hongyu? How is he?" Chen Shi'an asked curiously!
He waited for the letter that day!
"He was completely dazed and confused, like a fool, and kept muttering about ghosts. His family took him away," Zhao Mei said.
Chen Shi'an curled his lips, "This is really easy to play with!"
"Shi'an, have your dad come over tonight! I'm afraid you'll be scared if you're alone," Zhao Mei said to Chen Shi'an.
"Hey, I'm already so old. Besides, there are no ghosts in this world!" Chen Shi'an said nonchalantly.
"Don't be stubborn. Don't even mention when you were a kid, you were still afraid to walk alone at night when you were in high school!" Zhao Mei rolled her eyes at Chen Shi'an. She knew her own son all too well.
"Don't worry! It'll be fine." Chen Shi'an said, both amused and exasperated.
After much persuasion, I managed to convince my mother to stay calm.
If Dad really comes, then tonight's hot springs are ruined!
Between the snoring of a middle-aged man and Sister Hui's soft, fragrant body, is it even necessary to ask which one to choose?
"Alright then!" Zhao Mei nodded.
"If you're scared, go home and stay there," Zhao Mei couldn't help but say.
"Don't worry!" Chen Shi'an said with a smile.
"Shi'an! If you ask me, it would be best to find someone to keep you company. You know, it's inconvenient for you to do anything alone. If there were a woman by your side who would care for you, you could relax a bit more, right?" Zhao Mei said softly to Chen Shi'an.
In the end, it's still this little thing on my mind.
Chen Shi'an smiled. Having a woman by your side and being cared for are two different things, okay?
Besides, if we're talking about being considerate and caring, Sister Hui is much better.
After finishing their meal, they never forgot to clean their chopsticks.
Seeing that Chen Shi'an remained silent, Zhao Mei sighed and turned to leave.
Chen Shi'an couldn't help but smile helplessly. He had originally thought of asking his mother if there was anyone in the village who knew how to dispense medicine, but with more and more patients, he was finding it difficult to handle everything by himself.
Before I could even open my mouth!
My mother had just left when Sister Hui arrived.
They arrived right on time.
It was nothing more than talking about Yang Hongyu's matter, only in more detail.
After Yang Hongyu went missing yesterday, I started looking for him. For some reason, I thought of the village cemetery, which Yang Hongyu had been to before!
When they found him, Yang Hongyu was lying in a coffin.
The coffin was new, but no one knew how it got there.
Logically speaking, such a large coffin shouldn't be able to be carried up by one person, but no one in the village saw it.
That's just mysterious.
Even when the police arrived, they couldn't see anything wrong. When they asked Yang Hongyu, all he could say was, "Something's fishy."
While others might not know what was going on, Shang Jiahui did, so she looked at Chen Shi'an with great curiosity.
She was also curious about how Chen Shi'an had managed to do this.
Chen Shi'an smiled but didn't explain, and Shang Jiahui didn't press for an answer.
Let's just pretend this never happened.
She knew, but she would never tell anyone.
"Sister Hui, is there anyone in the village who knows how to dispense medicine? I'd like to hire someone who can dispense medicine and then register patients," Chen Shi'an said.
"Oh, I do know that. How's your sister-in-law Yue'e?" Shang Jiahui asked with a smile.
"I'm being serious!" Chen Shi'an said helplessly.
"I wasn't joking with you!"
"Your sister-in-law Yue'e's father used to be a traditional Chinese medicine doctor, but he died young."
"If he had someone backing him up at home, Chen Long wouldn't dare to act so recklessly," Shang Jiahui sighed.
Li Yue'e really had a tough time.
"Sister will go tell you?" Shang Jiahui said with a smile!
"Those who are near the water get the moon first." Shang Jiahui blinked.
Chen Shi'an was both amused and exasperated. "This isn't a good look, is it?"
"I work during the day and go home at night. The door's open, what can anyone say?"
"If you really come tonight, you have to come sneakily!" Shang Jiahui said with a smile!
Looking at Chen Shi'an, a complex emotion inadvertently surfaced in his eyes.
"I'm afraid that once someone has a sister-in-law, they'll forget about their older sister."
"My sister-in-law smells better than my older sister!" Shang Jiahui said quietly.
Chen Shi'an was both amused and exasperated. "In my heart, no one is as good as my sister," Chen Shi'an said with a smile.
"Even though it's fake, with those words, Sister Hui would be willing to die," Shang Jiahui said softly.
She gently pursed her lips, her eyes slightly red. If she had met Chen Shi'an years earlier, if she were his age, she would have married him regardless of everything, borne him children, and taken care of his daily needs.
Unfortunately, he was born at the wrong time.
Chen Shi'an smiled at the touched Shang Jiahui but said nothing.
I don't want to talk about love and romance anymore; it's childish, and I'm too old for that.
Besides, even if you make countless vows of eternal love and say nothing during passionate moments, you still have to break up eventually.
People! Being realistic and a little down-to-earth is better than anything else.
"Alright, I'm leaving now. I'll ask Yue'e later; she'll most likely agree," Shang Jiahui said softly to Chen Shi'an.
People were always coming to Chen Shi'an's clinic, so she couldn't stay there for long.
After watching Shang Jiahui leave, Yang Hongyu's matter was considered to be over.
Chen Shi'an took a sip of tea from his thermos when a figure walked in from outside the door.
"Are you a doctor?" The person who came looked at Chen Shi'an with some surprise.
"It's me." Chen Shi'an nodded.
"Excuse me, I heard there's a highly skilled traditional Chinese medicine doctor here, but I didn't expect him to be so young," the man said with a smile.
Chen Shi'an smiled and asked, "Where do you feel unwell?"
"I always feel uncomfortable in my chest, like there's a lot of pressure on it," the man said.
Chen Shi'an glanced at the other person and said, "Move over a little."
"Did you suffer any hidden injuries before?" Chen Shi'an asked.
"No! I've never encountered that." The man thought for a moment and then shook his head slightly.
"Hiss." Chen Shi'an pointed, and the man gasped.
"It's nothing serious, just a broken rib," Chen Shi'an said casually.
"It must have hit the top, you just didn't notice," Chen Shi'an said calmly.
"Rib bones usually need to be healed. Do you need any medication?" Chen Shi'an asked, looking at the other person.
"The sooner the better," the man said.
Chen Shi'an nodded slightly, wrote down a prescription, and then got up to go to the counter to get the medicine.
"These characters are beautifully written," the man exclaimed.
Chen Shi'an smiled, without being modest.
"I remember now, it must have been the day before yesterday when I was lifting the desk and bumped it, but I didn't notice at the time," the man said, looking at Chen Shi'an.
"What's your name?" Chen Shi'an asked!
"Xu Li, Xu for two people, Li for standing at attention."
"You need to rest well and be careful not to bump it again. Although a broken rib isn't serious, it can be fatal if it hits an internal organ. Secondary damage makes it even harder to repair," Chen Shi'an said calmly.
"Okay!" Xu Li nodded.
"By the way, have you heard about the ghost stories in your village?" Xu Li asked with a gossipy look on his face!
"I've heard about it." Chen Shi'an nodded with a smile. The village is so small; it would be too fake for him to say he hadn't heard about it.
