Xu Lanyin thought for a moment and said, "The fastest way to heal is to reconstruct memory."
"Memory reconstruction?" Minhu muttered softly. He felt that these words were too mysterious and a little confused. He asked again, "Does it mean that people change their memories and think of a deer as a horse?"
Xu Lanyin said, "You could say this is a method of treating patients who have suffered severe psychological trauma and are unable to extricate themselves. Use age regression during hypnosis to take her back to the moment of injury. First, let her enter as an outsider, experience the pain at that time, and vent her negative emotions. Then, reconstruct her memory, replacing the events she once experienced with another story that she likes and is willing to accept, thus changing her memory..."
Xu Lanyin briefly recounted the memory reconstruction process. She continued, "Old Doctor Zhang said he once used this method to cure a patient. This is my first time using it, so I'm not sure if it will work. If not, we'll have to keep Jiaer from getting any stimulation, just like we are doing now, and slowly help her become happy. This process will be a long one. Jiaer is still young and in the growth and development stage. If she doesn't speak for a long time, some of her oral muscles and brain nerves will degenerate, causing her speech to decline. Even if she wants to speak and is able to speak in the future, her pronunciation will be unclear, her speech response will be slow, and communication will be difficult. It will take a long time of training..."
Minhu interrupted her and said, "Let's try the first method first. If that doesn't work, try the second. Jia'er hasn't spoken for almost three years, and I can't let her delay any longer. Whether it's calling a horse a zebra or deceiving oneself, as long as it can make Jia'er happy, it's fine." He murmured, "Old Doctor Zhang is worthy of being called a miracle doctor. It's amazing that he even has this method."
There were a few unfamiliar words he had never heard of, and he thought they were probably professional terms used in medicine.
Xu Lanyin was secretly delighted. Luckily, this era had a mysterious old doctor. He was so elusive, no one had ever seen him, yet she (the original owner) had come into contact with him. She said, "After Jiaer's memory is restored, I must stay with her for quite a while, slowly guiding and enlightening her. My family and I have been in the provincial capital for a long time, and my mother is very anxious to return home. How about this? I'll make arrangements at home and come back early next month..."
Although Min Hu was eager to treat his daughter tomorrow, he couldn't let Miss Xu neglect her family. He had already waited so long, so he didn't mind waiting another month. He had no choice but to agree, "Okay, then I'll trouble Miss Xu. I'll send someone to take you back home tomorrow."
Xu Lanyin thanked him and said with a smile, "Shall I hypnotize Lord Min again?"
Minhu felt more relaxed and said with a smile, "I have been talking to Miss Xu for such a long time. I have poured out all the troubles in my heart. It seems that I can fall asleep even without hypnosis."
Xu Lanyin smiled and said, "That's perfect." She thought of Gui Fu and added, "Oh, by the way, there's one more thing I want to tell Lord Min. The other day, I was riding home in a car and I happened to see Gui Fu's wife talking to a lady. Their attitude was very familiar and warm. Standing next to them was Tang Jide, the second son of Tang Moshan. I think that lady might be a member of the Tang family. I hope I'm just being suspicious and they're just a couple of ladies."
Xu Lanyin couldn't say that she heard the thoughts of Gui Fu's wife, so she could only make up this lie. Although it was a bit far-fetched, it could make Minhu pay attention to Gui Fu.
Min Hu raised his eyebrows, pondered for a moment, and said, "There's something I've never been able to find the answer to. The jailers who tortured Huang He were all veterans, they controlled the force, and there were doctors keeping him alive at all times. He was in his prime, but he couldn't endure the severe torture and died. The coroner said there was another possibility of his death, that he was poisoned by a special poison. This poison doesn't kill people immediately, but it quickly reduces their resistance, causing death after a while. If Gui Fu is really from Tang Moshan, he might have had the opportunity to poison Huang He before the jailers took over... I have high hopes for him, and I hope it wasn't him."
Minhu had previously considered assigning the investigation of the Yiju Restaurant to Guifu, but if he was actually from Tangmoshan... After some thought, Minhu decided to hand it over to him and secretly send someone to monitor him. If he truly was from that side, it would save him the trouble of finding someone to leak information to them... I hope he can withstand this test. Oh, first we need to transfer Wang Li from the Xu family shop; he used to work with Guifu.
Minhu gave another bitter smile and said, "Now I can't fall asleep again, so I have to ask Miss Xu to hypnotize me again."
Xu Lanyin also laughed, stood up and took out her purse...
After more than a quarter of an hour, Minhu fell into a sound sleep.
Xu Lanyin returned to Minjia's courtyard. The children had already gotten up. Minjia and Xu Lanting were playing checkers, and Zhao Xingchen was flipping through comic books.
Seeing Zhao Xingchen, Xu Lanyin realized that she hadn't told Minhu about him. Then she thought, let's wait another month and talk about it next time.
Seeing her return, Xu Lanting asked, "Is it Brother Min who is back?"
Xu Lanyin smiled and said, "Yes, he was tired from the journey and fell asleep again."
After hearing this, Min Jia smiled and no longer had the expression of rejection towards his father.
Xu Lanyin thought that she would not see the little girl for another month, so she held her in her arms and told her stories.
At 5 p.m., Xu Lanyin and the others were about to leave. She first nudged Min Jia with her cheek and said softly, "Jia'er, Aunt Xu is going back to her hometown again..."
Min Jia started crying just after he finished speaking.
Xu Lanyin continued, "Aunt Xu promised that she would come back soon and stay here for a long time to accompany Jiaer..."
After coaxing her for a while, he still felt guilty and took Xu Lanting and Zhao Xingchen away amid the little girl's crying.
When we returned to the Xu family, not only Mrs. Li came, but also Manager Wu.
Xu Lanyin gave them some instructions and invited them to have dinner.
After the meal, he told Ding Gu, Aunt Yang, and Yang Zhong to stay in the provincial capital and clean up the house and then the snack shop.
The next morning, shortly after they had finished breakfast, Ho Tung and Ho Sai arrived with two carriages, five guards, and half a carriage as a gift from the Fujian government.
I arrived at Xu's house in Nanping County in the afternoon of the fifth day of the winter month, exactly one month after leaving home.
Mrs. Lu opened the door, and only the mother, son, and Huazi were home. Xu Lanzhou hadn't finished school yet, so the old couple had gone to the pastry shop to play.
Mrs. Lu whispered to Xu Lanyin, "The old man is unhappy with the mistress and has said a lot of harsh words."
This was all Xu Lanyin could think of. She was utterly fed up with the old man. It was a good thing they didn't live together, otherwise he would have lost his patience long ago. As a junior, it wasn't easy to confront him head-on, and if she did, the old man's thoughts would be embarrassing for the Qin family. She was already planning on dangling a carrot in front of his nose to keep him from causing trouble.
