Chapter 143 - 143 Medical Knowledge

143 Medical Knowledge

Su Binglan felt a warmth in her heart when she saw everyone’s trusting eyes. She sighed in relief and explained, “Actually, I think I met a Goddess when I was asleep once. She taught me many things and shared her medical knowledge with me.

“Others will say such things are too magical and outlandish, so I need you all to keep this a secret for me.”

After listening to Su Binglan’s words, the adults in the room still looked normal. Only Liu Yinyin looked surprised, while Luo Jin’an kept silent and lowered his head. No one knew what he was thinking.

Shen Qiuhua calmly said, “You can keep talking, Binglan. You don’t have to worry. We will keep it a secret for you.”

Su Binglan was puzzled, “Aren’t you all curious?”

Shen Qiuhua explained smilingly, “You were already smart when you were a child, but you would fall asleep randomly. Later, a monk visited our village to see you and said something.”

“W-What did he say?” Su Binglan was curious as she wondered why she could not remember that. Most of her childhood memories were fuzzy.

Her mother replied, “He said that your soul is incomplete. Now that you’re speaking of such things, I think I finally understand what the monk meant. Maybe the parts of your missing soul went to other worlds to learn and experience things.”

Su Fengmao nodded and added, “You don’t have to worry about anything, my dear daughter. No one else knows about what the monk said. We will protect you either way.”

Su Wenzhe also said thoughtfully, “Sister, I will earn more money so I can protect you too!”

Liu Yinyin was surprised, but she soon returned to her senses and said, “Don’t worry, Binglan. I won’t tell anyone either.”

Now that she understood that her sister-in-law knew medical skills, she finally knew why her husband could recover so quickly. Moreover, Su Binglan had treated a little girl with acupuncture when she seemingly died in front of the tofu shop.

Nonetheless, Su Binglan brought all this up because she wanted to treat her father’s crushed foot. That was why she explained how she was so skilled in medicine.

However, she did not expect her family members to accept her explanation so readily, which saved her time saying too much. She said, “Father, I took a look at your foot and discovered that I can heal it.”

Su Fengmao dropped his chopsticks when he heard that. “W-What did you say, daughter? Y-You can heal my foot?”

When Su Fengmao severely injured his foot in the past, he could not afford to treat it because his family was living in poor conditions. With prolonged delays to his treatment, he could no longer heal his foot.

Therefore, there were many things he could not do. He could only sit at home and weave baskets to sell.

Although he helped the family with their dessert and tofu shop, he was sitting down, unable to move around. Su Fengmao was anxious, but there was no point in feeling that way. He was disabled and limping, so it would affect everything he did.

He was extremely excited when his daughter said she could heal his foot. Despite that, he was afraid he had misheard Su Binglan. He stared at his daughter in a daze, his eyes unblinking.

Even Shen Qiuhua became excited. “Binglan, is that true? Can you heal your father’s foot?”

Su Wenzhe and Liu Yinyin looked at Su Binglan with nervous and expectant expressions. They also hoped that what Su Binglan said was true.

Su Binglan nodded and said, “Yes, I can heal Father’s foot. I couldn’t treat it earlier because I lacked herbs and tools. Still, I need to give him acupuncture, prepare bone-mending ointments, and perform surgery.
