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

"Brother Xia An, everyone is still awake, if you go over there..."

Luo Yunshu frowned slightly, somewhat puzzled by Xia An's actions.

He used to go there, but only after 9 o'clock, when everyone else had gone to bed.

Going there now would be a bit inappropriate.

Xia An shook his head and smiled, "I told Zhiyi's mother yesterday that Zhiyi will have acupuncture tonight, and then once every three days thereafter."

Everyone froze, surprised and doubtful, "Zhiyi's illness hasn't gotten better yet?"

"He's almost fully recovered."

Xia An shook her head and chuckled, "But having this excuse will make it easier to go there later."

As he spoke, he shared his thoughts with Chen Zhiyi and the others.

The women were all speechless. "Using a medical appointment as an excuse for this? You're really something!"

With that, he turned and left.

Xia An smiled and didn't think much of it.

He now understood the bottom line of the women in the courtyard.

As long as he doesn't bring trouble back and there's no danger, they don't seem to say anything.

Therefore, under normal circumstances, he doesn't hide anything he does.

Seeing that everyone had gone back inside, Xia An went out and came to Yang Yanqiu's side alone.

at this time,

Not only were Yang's parents there, but Chen's mother and Sister-in-law Cheng were also present.

Upon his arrival, Chen's mother and the others quickly stood up and greeted him with smiles.

"Xia, the educated youth, has arrived. Please have a seat."

Xia An shook her head. "No need to sit down, everyone's busy tomorrow."

"After I finish giving Comrade Zhiyi acupuncture, I should go back and rest as soon as possible."

Chen's mother said apologetically, "Xia, I'm so sorry to trouble you to come over so late at night."

Xia An waved his hand, "It's alright, it's necessary for treatment, I understand."

As he spoke, he seemed to remember something and said seriously,

"This time is different from before; the acupuncture may take longer."

"Keep one person here; the rest of you should go and rest."

Everyone nodded quickly.

Chen's mother said, "Let me stay with you, or you can come to our place so as not to disturb Yanqiu."

Yang Yanqiu shook his head, "Auntie, you're being too polite."

"Besides, it might not be convenient for you to get acupuncture back where you are."

Chen's mother thought of the situation at home and couldn't help but frown slightly.

A family of five lives on a single kang (heated brick bed), so acupuncture might indeed be inconvenient.

Chen Zhiyi quickly said, "Mom, you guys go back first. I'll sleep with Sister Yang."

"Sister Yang is here with me for acupuncture, so you don't need to worry."

"this……"

Chen's mother hesitated for a moment, glancing at Yang Yanqiu and the Xia brothers.

With these three people here, there shouldn't be any problems, and there shouldn't be any gossip.

Moreover, they had all previously tacitly agreed that Chen Zhiyi should approach Xia An.

Thinking of all this, she nodded and said, "Then I'll have to trouble Yanqiu. Thank you, Auntie."

"You're too kind, Auntie."

Yang Yanqiu waved his hand and smiled, then looked at his parents and said softly:

"Mom and Dad, you should go back and rest too. You'll be busy tomorrow."

"good!"

Yang Zhiming smiled and nodded, "Zhiyi acupuncture is over, you should all get some rest too."

Yang Yanqiu nodded.

After seeing Yang Zhiming and the others off, the two illusory figures squatted in the corners of the courtyard.

Stand guard!

Yang Yanqiu and the other two returned to the inner room. Chen Zhiyi threw herself into Xia An's arms, blushing as she said:

"Brother Xia, I'd like you to give me acupuncture!"

Xia An smiled enigmatically and said, "Zhiyi, are you sure it's acupuncture? Mine doesn't seem to be."

Chen Zhiyi blushed, "Whatever Brother Xia says, then it is."

As she spoke, she pulled him to sit on the kang (a heated brick bed).

Yang Yanqiu stepped forward and said, "An, you should go back and rest after you finish the acupuncture."

"You still have to go to the fields tomorrow; it's harvest time, you can't escape it."

Xia An smiled.

"Let's see how we hide. If we let the puppet do it for me, we can hide, right?"

"what?"

The two men were startled and their gazes involuntarily drifted towards the Xia brothers in the courtyard.

It seems that it really is possible!

Xia An looked at the two of them and said, "Zhiyi doesn't need to go, but does Yanqiu need to?"

Yang Yanqiu blinked. "An~, you mean to get a puppet just like me to go in my place?"

Xia An nodded.

Yang Yanqiu was somewhat tempted, but after a moment's hesitation, she shook her head.

"It can't be that simple, can it?"

"really,"

Xia An nodded. "It seems my Yanqiu is indeed quite clever."

"With my abilities, I can indeed create a puppet just like you."

"But without your memory, it's easy for people to notice the problem when you interact with them."

Yang Yanqiu nodded slightly, "That's true, but I don't think that's necessary."

"With those two outside helping me, I'll have it easy and won't have to go through all this trouble."

"Whatever you say." Xia An nodded slightly, then lowered her head to prepare for the acupuncture...

……

More than an hour later.

Looking at their sweet sleeping faces, Xia An smiled slightly, got up and left.

The phantoms Xia Jiang and Xia Hai escorted Xia An out of the courtyard, then disappeared after closing the door behind them.

These two phantoms are bound to the Descent Point and will descend on their own tomorrow.

at this time,

The people of Anping Village had already gone to bed; the entire village was quiet.

Xia An walked quickly through the alleyway, heading towards the clinic.

Passing by Xie Weiguo's house, I saw Xie Weiguo and some people sitting in the courtyard.

If Xia An remembered correctly, that middle-aged man was Xie Lingyun's father—Xie Jiaguo.

Xia An paused slightly. "Uncle Xie, haven't you rested yet?"

Xie Weiguo waved, "I need to talk to you about something. I've been waiting for you."

"wait for me?"

Xia An was slightly surprised and walked into the courtyard.

His gaze swept over Xie Jiaguo, and he had some vague guesses in his mind.

"Uncle Xie, is there something you need from me?"

"Yes, two things."

Xie Weiguo nodded and said, "The first thing we need to ask about Yue'er's treatment."

"Tomorrow is my third acupuncture session, but the autumn harvest is also very important. Is it really impossible for me to work in the fields?"

Xia An shook her head, "Arrange some easy work for her, just something that won't tire her out."

"Also, tomorrow will be busy, but the treatment can't be delayed; either morning or evening is fine."

Xie Weiguo nodded, "Good morning."

"I'll let Lao Luo know; you can go two hours later if you want."

Xia An nodded and took out the remaining half of the ginseng wrapped in red cloth from his bag.

"I just went to give Comrade Chen Zhiyi acupuncture. I was planning to bring this over on the way, but I forgot. Uncle Xie, please keep it safe."

Thanks.

Xie Weiguo took it, carefully put it in his bag, and then continued,

"The second thing is that I'd like you to take a look at my fifth brother."

"He felt there was no chance of a cure, and he was also embarrassed, so he hadn't gone to see you before."

"I advised him several times, and I was just thinking of going to see you not long ago, but you weren't here."

"I guessed you went to see Chen Jiani, so I brought him here to wait."

Xia An nodded slightly. "Uncle Xie, let me take your pulse first."

Xie Jiaguo nodded, a hint of expectation in his eyes, but not much.

"Thank you for your help, Xia Zhiqing."

"It's no trouble at all."

Xia An shook her head slightly, quickly confirming his symptoms, and said softly:

"You suffered a serious injury early in your life, and you've been able to live a normal life all these years, but you just don't have children, right?"

Xie Jiaguo said with a wry smile, "When I was injured, I asked Uncle Luo to take a look at me, and I also went to the city. They all said that my genitals were damaged, and I would most likely be infertile."

"As Uncle Luo and the others predicted, there's been no movement for over a decade."

"It was only because of the spiritual energy that I had it before, otherwise I don't know how I would have survived."

Xie Weiguo asked expectantly, "Young Xia, your medical skills are superb. Can you cure my fifth brother's symptoms?"

Xia An's expression was solemn. "A man has two testicles, which are crucial for life and reproduction."

"Uncle Xie's one organ is completely necrotic, and the other is also diseased, so it's impossible for him to conceive."

Hearing this, Xie Jiaguo looked somewhat disappointed and sighed.

"Sigh, I knew it..."

Xie Weiguo frowned. "Xia boy, is there really no other way?"

Xia An shook his head and smiled, "Don't rush, let me finish speaking before you decide."

Upon hearing this, Xie Jiaguo's expression changed, and his eyes gleamed.

"Can Xia, the educated youth, be cured?"

Xia An smiled and nodded, "A minor surgery is needed to remove the necrotic tissue."

"This kind of necrosis not only affects treatment, but may also trigger other illnesses at any time."

"Afterwards, medication will be used to help the other one return to normal."

"Even if only one is normal, it can still increase the chances of conceiving."

"Once you've recovered sufficiently, I'll prescribe some medication to help increase your chances of getting pregnant."

Upon hearing this, their eyes lit up, and Xie Jiaguo exclaimed excitedly:

"Can Xia Zhiqing really be cured?"

Xia An shook her head and smiled, "Uncle Xie Wu just heard me say that a complete cure is impossible, but it can indeed give you the ability to conceive."

"Okay, okay!"

Xie Jiaguo said excitedly, "I would be extremely grateful if you, Xia Zhiqing, could help me with the treatment."

As he spoke, he was about to kneel down before Xia An.

Xia An quickly helped him up, "Uncle Xie, what are you doing?"

Xie Jiaguo's eyes were slightly red, and he didn't say anything.

Xie Weiguo shook his head and smiled, "You showed him the possibility of carrying on the family line, allowing his lineage to continue."

"You can bear this kneeling!"

Xia An shook his head and laughed, "That's really unnecessary, I can't accept that."

"Besides, we haven't seen any results yet, so it's too early to say anything."

Xie Jiaguo shook his head and smiled, "It was Xia Zhiqing who gave me hope."

"And regardless of whether it succeeds or not, I, Xie Laowu, will be eternally grateful."

Xia An was slightly taken aback. Did these older generations really value carrying on the family line so much?

At this time,

Xie Weiguo said, "Xia Zhiqing, what do you think we need for this treatment?"
