Stunning Check-in: A Carefree Life Begins in the Countryside

"Brother Xia, will those who like you care about you and protect you?"

Chen Zhiyi asked.

Xia An nodded affirmatively, "Yes!"

Chen Zhiyi smiled, a smile that looked incredibly sweet and healing.

"Since there are so many more people who like you, care about you, and protect you, why should I regret it?"

Xia An was slightly taken aback, then raised his hand to rub her head, his tone enigmatic.

"Silly girl!"

Chen Zhiyi's pretty face flushed, her eyes narrowed slightly, but she didn't reject this intimacy.

In fact, they thoroughly enjoyed it.

Seeing her like this, Xia An couldn't help but berate herself inwardly.

He's a real king of the sea!

A moment later,

Feeling that it was about time, Xia An removed the silver needles and personally helped her tidy up her clothes.

"alright,"

"After that, come in for acupuncture once a day, and I'll help you get better."

"good!"

Chen Zhiyi's beautiful eyes lit up, and she nodded quickly, a joyful smile on her lips.

Xia An rubbed her head. "Auntie must be getting impatient. I'll let them in."

Chen Zhiyi nodded.

But suddenly she grabbed his hand, stood on tiptoe, and kissed him on the corner of his lips.

"Thank you, Brother Xia."

She whispered something, then quickly sat down on the kang (a heated brick bed), lowering her head and not daring to look at him.

Xia An shook his head, wondering if this silly girl could keep it from Chen's mother.

He shook his head, didn't think much of it, and opened the door directly.

outside the door,

Chen's mother was waiting anxiously. When he opened the door, she quickly asked:

"How is Xia, the educated youth, doing?"

"Come in." Xia An stepped aside, turned around, and sat back down at the table to write the prescription.

"Acupuncture is effective. After that, I came here every day after dinner for acupuncture."

"I'll write you two prescriptions. I'll get the medicine here temporarily to combine with acupuncture, but the treatment effect will probably be much less."

"You can try looking for medicinal herbs on the other one. I'll also ask someone to inquire for you."

Upon hearing this, Chen's mother nodded quickly, her face showing gratitude.

"I understand, thank you, Xia Zhiqing."

Xia An nodded slightly, "Her weakness is congenital, probably caused by an injury you sustained while pregnant with her or some other reason."

"Her physical weakness and the resulting ailments require acupuncture and medicinal diet therapy, which I will do my best to help her with."

"In addition, she was also malnourished, which also worsened her condition."

"If conditions permit, you can eat more good food to replenish your body."

"Okay!" Chen's mother nodded quickly, her eyes filled with guilt and helplessness.

After Xia An's reminder, she clearly realized the cause of her daughter's poor health.

It was all because they didn't think things through back then.

Unfortunately, even if the cause of the illness is known, it can still be treated.

But unfortunately, given their current situation, they can't even find medicinal herbs, let alone improve their daughter's diet.

Chen's mother sighed softly.

She glanced at Chen Zhiyi, whose pretty face was flushed and who was keeping her head down and not saying a word, then stepped forward and gently hugged her.

Chen Zhiyi seemed afraid to look up, nestled gently in her arms, and said nothing.

quickly,

Xia An wrote down two prescriptions and handed them to Chen's mother, saying:

"Auntie, get this medicine here, and we'll decoct it for her when we get back."

"Keep the other one safe. Look for it if you can, but it's okay if you can't find it for now."

"Thank you, Xia, the educated youth."

Chen's mother gratefully accepted the prescription, then took Chen Zhiyi's hand and said...

"Zhiyi, let's go back first."

"good!"

Chen Zhiyi nodded and followed her out of the consultation room, but secretly glanced at Xia An.

Xia An nodded with a slight smile.

She quickly looked away and followed Chen's mother to get the medicine.

After getting the medicine, the mother and daughter left.

Seeing that the person had left, Luo Yunshu withdrew her gaze and hesitated before speaking:

"Brother Xia An, is her condition very serious?"

"Um!"

Xia An nodded gently.

"Her weakness is something she had since birth; even doctors with average skills can't detect it."

"There might have been other symptoms before, but they weren't very noticeable, so you probably didn't pay much attention to them."

"But in the past few years here, the poor conditions have triggered and exacerbated many of my illnesses."

"Symptoms such as cold uterus, infertility, and dysmenorrhea have appeared one after another, which is considered serious."

Upon hearing this, the people present couldn't help but frown slightly, their faces showing reluctance.

For these women, infertility due to cold uterus is undoubtedly the most serious ailment.

Chen Zhiyi is so young, and she has already contracted this disease. It will be difficult for her to get married in the future.

Fortunately, Xia An seems to be able to cure it.

Li Yuxue frowned slightly and asked, "Xia Zhiqing, can he really be cured?"

"Can!"

Xia An nodded affirmatively, "Although it's a bit troublesome, it can be cured."

Upon hearing this, everyone nodded slightly.

Li Yuxue glanced at Xia An with a half-smile, sensing that he seemed to have something to say but wasn't.

Moreover, the girl's gaze just now was rather intriguing!

After that, people came one after another.

It seems they all plan to take advantage of this short break from farming to come to him for a medical consultation.

But as if they knew Xia An's schedule, people almost stopped coming after seven o'clock.

Xia An didn't pay much attention to this, and seeing that no one was coming, he simply carried his medicine basket into the mountain.

This time, we really went into the mountains to collect medicinal herbs.

They specialize in searching for rare medicinal herbs, such as ginseng and cistanche.

If they come across medicinal herbs that the clinic needs, they will pick some along the way.

Now, with over a dozen kinds of livestock in the Spirit Spring Space, he has lost interest in prey.

Unless you encounter a rare bird or animal that is exceptionally beautiful and suitable for keeping as a pet,

Or perhaps, it's a rare and valuable animal that can be used in medicine; otherwise, he wouldn't bother with it.

Time slipped by quietly, and this day brought neither surprises nor unexpected events.

He didn't encounter any noteworthy rare medicinal herbs or prey that would interest Xia An.

Xia An carried his medicine basket out of the forest and casually picked up two bundles of thin firewood.

I was thinking of bringing a rabbit or a pheasant, but then I thought better of it.

Professional hunters from Anping Village go out into the mountains every two or three days, and they consider it a success if they catch one or two rabbits or pheasants each time.

If he could find something every day when he went into the mountains, what would that be like?

It's fine to do it occasionally, but it's best to rely on Li Jia in his illusory form to deliver it.

Most of the patrol team members organized by Anping Village stayed on the edge of the mountains and forests, and no one went into the mountains.

Upon seeing Xia An emerge from the forest, everyone greeted him.

"Xia, the educated youth, is back! Look at that overflowing medicine basket; he's had quite a haul!"

Someone laughed.

Of course,

Upon hearing this, the person next to him shook his head, seemingly dissatisfied.

He shook his head and laughed, "If you ask me, this doesn't count as a harvest. A harvest would be one if we could get some game to improve Xia Zhiqing's meals."

"That's true."

"You know, that's quite right."

Everyone laughed and agreed.

Xia An chuckled, "It's good enough to have any harvest at all; how can we expect to encounter prey every day?"

Everyone smiled.

"Xia, you're carrying things, so you should go back first."

Another person laughed and said, "We also have to patrol, so we won't chat with you."

"OK!"

Xia An nodded, "Be careful, I'm going back now."

As he spoke, he carried the firewood and strode into the village, soon returning to his courtyard.
