Su Ruyi looked at the somewhat comical elderly couple, and then at Wang Jiaqiang, who was following behind them dejectedly, and her heart softened: "Alright then, let him take the exam."

The two elders were extremely grateful and thanked them profusely.

Upon hearing this, Wang Jiaqiang cheered and hurried to find Su Qiushi to register and get the test papers.

Unexpectedly, Su Qiushi, who had been trembling with excitement, glared at him and said, "What are you thinking? You're only arriving now? Fifty people, we'd have all been recorded by this afternoon!"

Wang Jiaqiang felt as if he had been struck by lightning.

The elderly couple found Su Ruyi again.

Su Ruyi shrugged: "My grandfather decides everything about the registration."

The two of them then dragged their son along and pestered Su Qiushi for a long time, but Su Qiushi wouldn't budge.

Wang Jiaqiang stood there for a long time, then suddenly looked up at the sky and laughed, "It's fate! This is fate! Mom, you don't have to die!"

Su Qiushi was terrified by this excitable young man: "Go away! If you're going to go crazy, go home and do it!"

"Isn't it going to make me go crazy when I get home?" Wang Jiaqiang said, then walked home with his head down.

His parents were left behind, looking at each other in bewilderment.

The training course will begin in seven days.

Ding Youliang also attached great importance to this matter.

You should know that the doctors who come out of Dingjiatun are all connected to Dingjiatun's network of connections!

With grain in his pocket, he'll be able to walk with a straighter back.

He had a large blackboard painted in the threshing ground to serve as a classroom.

He also turned the row of empty rooms in the threshing ground into dormitories.

Students who lived far from home brought their bedding, and Su Ruyi paid for their meals out of her own pocket to set up a small canteen.

Ding Youliang fully supported the food rations, and Su Ruyi only needed to pay for them.

Shulan found several young girls from the village to help with the cooking.

A proper training course was thus launched.

On the first day of class, Yilele came again and went straight to the threshing ground.

Su Ruyi was delighted to see her: "Wang Fang, you look much better!"

Yi Lele giggled and said, "It's all thanks to Dr. Su's medicine! Dr. Su, I haven't had any night terrors for a whole week, and..." She looked around and lowered her voice, "...and I haven't wet the bed either!"

"Very good." Su Ruyi said, then said to the students, "Memorize the medicinal properties I just talked about before class tomorrow. From now on, there will be tests every day, and the bottom three in each test don't need to come."

The students were in an uproar, then quickly lowered their heads and began to memorize the texts as fast as they could.

Su Ruyi led Yi Lele back to the village clinic and performed moxibustion on her again.

"Dr. Su, can I attend this training course?" Yi Lele asked, tilting her head.

"Huh?" As she asked this question, the red mole on Su Ruyi's right palm became hot again.

There are 49 people here for training today. One young man from a neighboring village broke his leg last night and can't come.

There's a spot available right now.

Could it be that Wang Fang will also become his apprentice?

Su Ruyi pondered for a moment and asked, "You went to high school?"

Yi Lele nodded and said, "Yes, my family values ​​education a lot. My mother used to work in literature and history."

It turns out to be a home for intellectuals.

Su Ruyi reminded her, "Comrade Wang Fang, the doctor I'm hiring is a traditional Chinese medicine doctor!"

Yi Lele lowered her head shyly: "Dr. Su, I know he's a traditional Chinese medicine doctor. I've loved traditional Chinese medicine since I was little, and I especially admire an old traditional Chinese medicine doctor from my hometown..."

She blushed as she spoke, "He's from my hometown, Haicheng. His name is Su Qiushi, and he's a very famous traditional Chinese medicine doctor!"

Just as she finished speaking, Su Qiushi walked in.

Their eyes met, and both of them were stunned.

Yi Lele: "Grandpa Su...?"

Su Qiushi: "Le...Lele?"

Both of them were a little confused, but Su Ruyi was the most confused.

Although the two people only exchanged a few words, Su Ruyi had already obtained a wealth of explosive information—

First of all, he mentioned that his father, Su Chunhua, shared the same surname as him, and it turns out that he really did have the surname Su!

Secondly, the little girl named Wang Fang, or at least nicknamed Lele.

At this moment, Su Ruyi was deeply shocked, because she had just received the name Yi Lele two days ago.

Wang Fang, who came from Haicheng, came specifically to see her for medical treatment...

Moreover, when they arrived, they were even somewhat arrogant, or rather, aggressive.

Su Ruyi looked at the two of them with a very complicated expression.

Meanwhile, Su Qiushi kept winking at the little girl named Wang Fang, and even the muscles in his face twitched.

Wang Fang did the same, constantly winking and making faces at Su Qiushi, and even pouting.

Both sides were busy exchanging coded messages, but neither could decipher the other's, so their next words blurted out—

Su Qiushi: "Lele, what are you doing here?!"

Yi Lele: "Grandpa Su, shouldn't I be asking you that? What are you doing here? Were you sent here by the lower classes? By the way, where's Qiao Qiao? Is she alright? I haven't seen her in so long!"

Hearing these words, Su Ruyi roughly understood that this old man Su was undoubtedly Su Qiaoqiao's grandfather!

The fleeting doubt that crossed her mind became the only truth!

What was the old man's name again?

Anyway, it's definitely surnamed Su!

Although she didn't know the old man's exact name, the old Chinese medicine doctor from Haicheng came to Tieshi in a strange way and inexplicably lost his memory!

And she also has a granddaughter? Daughter? named Qiaoqiao?

Regardless of what it is, Su Ruyi has now decided that Su Qiushi is Su Qiaoqiao's grandfather.

She puffed out her cheeks as if to pout: "—Grandpa?"

Now Yi Lele was even more puzzled: "Grandpa Su, how come Su Ruyi is also your granddaughter? That's unlikely, isn't it? I've never heard of her before?"

"Ah, that... this... I... actually... um..." Su Qiushi was already in a panic.

What a coincidence!

What is this Yilele doing in this godforsaken place, Dingjiatun?

Su Ruyi stood with her arms crossed, watching the two of them in a panic, a faint smile playing on her lips.

Su Qiushi became even more anxious: "Ruyi, listen to me."

“Okay, go ahead, I’m listening,” Su Ruyi replied cheerfully, looking like she was watching a show.

Of course, she was still hurt inside; who wouldn't be hurt after being deceived? But she hid it and didn't show it.

Su Qiushi paced anxiously, "This...this...is true, I didn't mean to hide it from you..."

He was rambling incoherently.

Su Ruyi sighed, "Grandpa, you told me you have no relatives left. Aren't you cursing Su Qiaoqiao?"

Su Qiushi lowered her head: "I... I was afraid you would overthink it."

Su Ruyi shrugged: "You know that Su Qiaoqiao has been arrested, right?"

Su Qiushi nodded: "I know, I went to the Sanhe County Public Security Bureau to see her."
