Ding Gui used to run around the yard wailing in pain because of tooth decay. Erniu knew about it and had also heard Ding Youtian say that it was worms in his teeth. She was so scared that her face turned pale, and Jian Ning felt extremely guilty.

"Don't be afraid, mother can treat it. You don't have to be afraid if it grows bigger, okay?" She was afraid that Erniu would say something shocking again, so she quickly took Sanniu by the hand and said with an apologetic smile to the onlookers, "I'll take the kids back to apply medicine. I'm leaving."

Sanniu turned around and shouted, "My mother is a female doctor, very good!"

Wow, it turns out that the county magistrate's wife is also a doctor. The people were even more excited. The streets of Danyang haven't been so lively in the past ten years. At this time, other people heard that the carts carrying cow dung had arrived at the yamen, and they also lined up in groups of three or two with baskets to collect the cow and horse dung, and did not forget to greet others along the way.

"Mom, they are still following us." Erniu saw the people rushing behind her, and forgot about her cavities for a moment, and pointed behind Jian Ning.

"Mom!" Sanniu shook Jian Ning's hand, and she had the same doubts in her heart as Erniu, because when Jian Ning told them about Journey to the West, she said that there were actually no gods or demons in the world.

Sanniu raised her little face. She also wanted to ask Jian Ning, but she was never talkative. After thinking about it, she decided not to ask, as if she knew she wouldn't get an answer even if she asked. She sighed like a little adult.

It wasn't the first time that Jian Ning sighed when she heard what she wanted to ask. This little girl was not like Erniu. She preferred to digest many things on her own. Her personality was more like her original self Duan Xinning. Erniu was completely like Ding Youtian, more extroverted, but without her father's cunning. Sanniu, on the other hand, was more calm and introverted.

It's better if she doesn't ask, Jane Ning sighed inwardly. Just now, when Sanniu looked up at her, she knew what she was going to ask. If she really asked, Jane Ning would be hard-pressed to answer. Parents all over the world teach their children not to lie, but they themselves often have to make up white lies.

The kids are still young, so it’s hard to tell them the reason behind this.

Back at the yamen, Jian Ning asked Erniu to open her mouth again and said, "Ah, Mom was dazzled by it before, it hasn't grown yet. Go play with Yaoyao."

She put Erniu down. After hearing that she didn't have any cavities, Erniu took Sanniu by the hand, shouted "Jinbao" and ran to the backyard with Sanniu.

"Mom! Come quickly, come and see!" The two little ones just ran into the backyard and then ran back again. One of them pulled Jane Ning to the backyard. Sanniu pointed at the apple seedlings and said, "Look, they've grown so tall."

Sanniu ran to a fruit seedling and gestured with her hands, "When my second sister and I saw it this morning, it was only this tall. It's here now."

Jane Ning checked it early in the morning and found that it had grown taller than when she planted it last night. It was obvious that all of them were alive, so she felt relieved. She got up early and watered it with spiritual spring water. In just a short time, the plants had grown a big section. At this rate of growth, it would probably bloom and bear fruit soon.

During lunch, Jian Ning discussed with Ding Youtian, "What do you think? We can designate an orchard and have the government take the lead in guiding the people to plant apple trees. This way, they can help themselves. It's not a good idea to always rely on the state government and the court for aid. We have to rely on ourselves."

Ding Youtian smiled and said, "I've discussed this with Uncle Lu, and he's also seen these fruit seedlings. We'll decide on the apple orchard on the southern hilltop. Those things are only available there, and the fertilizer is readily available, so it's perfect for planting there. Let's wait for these fruit seedlings to grow a few more days, until they're bigger and have more branches, and then we can plant them."

Jian Ning nodded, about to say something but stopped herself. Ding Youtian saw her glance up and knew that Ma Fuquan had probably sent some message. After Erniu and Sanniu finished eating and put down their bowls and chopsticks and ran to play in the yard, he asked, "What did Brother Ma say?"

"Qiaofeng is coming. This girl is still willing to study medicine with me. Besides, Shu'er has moved in with her grandmother. It's good that she's here. I'm really short of helpers. Surgery still requires clinical experience. With my personal instruction, she can become a master as soon as possible."

"Of course. She can't compare to Jin Yu, who has studied with Grandpa for a long time and has a deeper foundation than her. By the way, is she here with Brother Ma and his escort agency?"

"No. A minister in the court submitted a memorial reporting on the incident in Danyang County. The emperor was furious and ordered an investigation. He sent an imperial envoy to Yanzhou County, along with a cavalry team carrying supplies. Feng'er will be accompanying the team in a few days."

Ding Youtian smiled and said, "The people from Ding brand are quite quick and efficient."

On the day they set out for Danyang, the people from the Ding family also left Yancheng. The news was passed on to Beijing by flying horses through the Ding family from all over the place, so it didn't take long.

Three days later, Tong Bajin and Erlangzi came back from purchasing charcoal and firewood. Two days later, Jian Ning took them to cut the apple branches, and together with Ding Youtian, they led the people in the city to plant them on the South Mountain.

After a few days of hard work, the entire yellow sandy land of Nanshan was planted with apple seedlings. No one in the entire Dayan Dynasty knew what an apple was. The people of Danyang naturally had no idea. When someone asked about it, Tong Bajin quickly explained that he and Erlangzi had bought them from the barbarians when they were out buying charcoal.

Since his wife is a reclusive master in the world of immortal cultivation, Tong Bajin is not only no longer curious about the strange gadgets she can take out at any time, but also takes the initiative to help cover for her.

After Jian Ning told the people that the fruits of these trees could be made into ointment and sold to various prefectures and counties in Dayan Dynasty in exchange for grain and silver, they were all excited and full of energy. They only wished that the fruits could bloom and bear fruit immediately.

"Madam, what's the name of the ointment?" someone asked Jian Ning. Jian Ning hadn't thought about it yet. Ding Youtian looked at Guo Guo and Bai Mei playing and chasing each other, raised his eyebrows, leaned close to Jian Ning's ear, and whispered, "How about calling it Bai Guo Ointment?"

Ginkgo paste? Jane Ning's eyes lit up. Ginkgo is a medicinal herb that has the effect of resolving phlegm, relieving cough and relieving asthma. This name is great and it suits her taste very well.
