Chapter 23 is truly heartbreaking.



Zhonggui Village appears to be in a better situation than Xiagui Village, but that better situation is only because Zhonggui Village is united. If they weren't united, Zhonggui Village might not be as good as Xiagui Village.

Shanggui Village, Zhonggui Village, and Xiagui Village are three connected villages.

Shanggui Village is the wealthiest of the three villages because it was promoted by the county magistrate, who built a cattle farm in the village. The villagers of Shanggui Village benefited a lot from this cattle farm, and their lives got better day by day.

But Zhonggui Village and Xiagui Village are different. Although they are very close to Shanggui Village, the people of Shanggui Village are afraid that Zhonggui Village and Xiagui Village will benefit from it. They refuse to let the people of Zhonggui Village and Xiagui Village go to the cattle farm to make money. Therefore, the gap between the two villages and Shanggui Village is getting bigger and bigger!

However, because of their unity, even though they toiled in the fields, the lives of the villagers in Zhonggui Village were not as difficult as those of the villagers in Xiagui Village.

However, in Xiagui Village, not only are the people not united, but some are also lazy, so every household is very poor.

Even if Rong Dong'an went to Xiagui Village to treat patients, he basically wouldn't get paid. Many people chose to pay on credit!

As time went by, they seemed to have forgotten about it and had no intention of paying back the debt.

So Xiagui Village was very poor, so poor that they couldn't even afford to eat!

Seeing the situation in Shanggui Village and Xiagui Village, the Rong clan's patriarch and village head not only restrained the clan members, but also made them work hard so that they would at least not lack food and would not starve to death in the dead of winter!

So when they learned that Rong Sheng could cure Rong Yu's illness, they were all filled with hope, as Rong Yu was a good young man.

If Rong Yu recovers, he can participate in the preliminary examination, and then Zhonggui Village will be able to stand tall.

If Rong Yu were to take the imperial examination, then their Zhonggui Village and their Rong clan would truly enjoy boundless glory.

So they're betting on something big!

At the same time, we also hope that Rong Sheng is truly capable, so that neither Shanggui Village nor Xiagui Village will dare to underestimate Zhonggui Village.

Seeing Rong Sheng like this, Xu and his family felt very sad. If they had met Rong Sheng earlier and taken her away from the old gambler, she wouldn't be suffering so much.

They wouldn't get teary-eyed because of a single sentence from them.

That touched look in his eyes was so heartbreaking.

So they repeatedly comforted Rong Sheng, telling her to go for it and that they would take care of everything.

Their family will be Rong Sheng's strongest support!

Let Rong Sheng do what she wants without any scruples!

Rong Sheng was moved to tears and silently vowed in her heart that as long as they treated her well, she would treat them with all her heart.

Not only that, but they will also use their abilities and the powerful system as a cheat code to lead them to a prosperous life.

After the villagers left, Rong Yu took Rong Sheng to the village head's house.

Let the village head's wife take a look at her condition.

Upon arriving at the village head's house, one is immediately greeted by a strong smell of medicine.

The village head was not very old, only about thirty years old, and his wife was only twenty-eight or twenty-nine years old, and had already given birth to three children.

The three children are very healthy and have no problems at all.

But the village head's wife was very thin and frail, with a pale face, like snow.

She looked as if a gust of wind could blow her away; she was even thinner than Rong Yu!

“Auntie, I am Rong Sheng. You should know me. I learned from Uncle Village Head that you are sick, so I came to take a look at you. I hope you will not hide anything from me and tell me your symptoms in detail so that I can know how to treat you!” Rong Sheng looked at the village head’s wife with shining eyes.

The village head's wife had already learned from the village head what had happened at the Rong family, so she was mentally prepared. Now, hearing Rong Sheng say this, she quickly nodded: "Then I'll have to trouble you, Rong Sheng. But my illness has been going on for many years. Many doctors have prescribed medicine, even your father prescribed medicine, but it hasn't been completely cured. I don't ask for a complete cure, I just hope that I can live a little more comfortably."

"Don't worry, Auntie, let me take a look first!" No matter what the illness is, with the systematic hospital here, there won't be any problems.

But she won't make any promises that give patients too much hope.

Because sometimes, there are certain illnesses that cannot be cured, no matter how advanced the medical technology is, there is no way to cure them quickly.

But she will do her best to treat him!

Rong Sheng took the pulse of the village head's wife, frowned slightly, and then chased all the men out of the house and closed the doors and windows.

The village head's wife was unaware of the situation, but seeing Rong Sheng's serious expression, she knew that her illness was not simple, so her heart immediately jumped into her throat.

"Rong Sheng, is my illness... very serious?"

Rong Sheng smiled and said, "Don't worry, Auntie. Your illness is quite serious, but I need to examine you carefully! But before the examination, I have some questions to ask you. I hope you won't be shy and will tell me everything. Otherwise, I... won't be able to determine the condition or prescribe any medicine for you! Then your illness... won't be easy to cure!"

Hearing Rong Sheng say this, the village head's wife breathed a sigh of relief. "Rong Sheng, just ask me whatever you have questions! I'll tell you everything!"

Rong Sheng asked, "Auntie, what's bothering you...?" As he spoke, Rong Sheng's gaze fell on the village head's wife's lower body, "Do you often feel itchy, have an odor, have grayish-brown cottage cheese-like discharge, and sometimes experience urinary urgency and pain?"

The village head's wife's face immediately turned bright red, not for any other reason than that everything Rong Sheng said was true.

But Rong Sheng was just a young girl who had just come of age and had never been exposed to these things before. Now that she had brought it up, the village head's wife wished she could dig a hole and bury herself in it. It was just too embarrassing!

“Auntie, your illness is important! So don’t be shy. I, Rong Sheng, will not tell anyone about your illness. Even if someone is to tell someone, it will be you who tells them!” Rong Sheng completely understood the feelings of the village head’s wife.

As a woman, especially a woman in ancient times, it's understandable that she couldn't let go!

Because their thinking is rigid, and they place great emphasis on the Three Obediences and Four Virtues.

If word gets out about their illness, they'll be too ashamed to face anyone.

As far as she knew, in ancient times, if a woman contracted this disease, she would be considered unlucky and might even be driven out of her home.

In addition, this disease is difficult to talk about, and most doctors are male. Even if they know the condition, they dare not and cannot perform a detailed examination, let alone cure the disease.

Therefore, their illness kept recurring and never truly got better!
