Seeing that Lin Xue had left, Wang Shengli finally had time to ask his father.
"Father, who is she?"
Wang Shengli's eyes were actually quite complex, filled with a strong desire to explore.
"She's the wife of my newly accepted apprentice. She calls me Master along with her boyfriend, so it's perfectly acceptable for her to call you Senior Brother!"
Old Wang didn't know when Lin Xue would return, so he only gave a brief account without going into the details.
"Oh? She already has a boyfriend!"
Wang Shengli's voice was filled with deep disappointment.
"What! Don't tell me you've taken a fancy to that girl?"
Old Wang stared at his eldest son in disbelief. Wasn't he the one who disliked loud and boisterous little girls the most?
Why did you become interested in Lin Xue?
"No, it's not that. It's just that a junior sister suddenly appeared, and before I even had a chance to show my protective instincts as a senior brother, she already has a boyfriend!"
"Sigh, isn't that a real shame!"
"Hiss~"
In his excitement, Wang Shengli jerked his right leg.
The next second, a piercing pain shot through my leg.
"You'd better stay put and behave yourself!"
Even now, Lao Wang is still somewhat skeptical of Lin Xue's words.
"Master, could you tidy up the table?"
Just as the father and son were staring at each other, Lin Xue walked in carrying a tray.
"Huh? Aren't these all things from the hospital? Why did you bring them here?"
Old Wang looked at the alcohol tweezers and other disinfection supplies on Lin Xue's tray and felt a little suspicious.
Does his future apprentice's wife have some connection with people at the hospital?
"I'll go ask the nurses upstairs for it!"
Lin Xue made it sound simple, but what happened in front of her earlier was actually quite funny.
When she arrived, there was an old farmer whose foot had been dug up by a hoe, and he was being carried into the hospital.
The surgeon happened to be out at the time, and the nurses were all quite alarmed when they saw the blood gushing from the old farmer's feet.
Lin Xue showed no regard for herself as an outsider and immediately began treating the old farmer's foot injury.
He also kept the two nurses running around in circles, asking them to fetch alcohol one minute and gauze the next.
His air of authority as an attending physician quite intimidated the two young nurses.
After treating the old farmer's foot injury, the two nurses watched as Lin Xue stitched up the old farmer's split wound and calmly applied some medicine.
I became even more certain that this must be a new doctor.
After treatment, the old farmer's foot stopped bleeding. They were told to go to the doctor to get some anti-inflammatory medicine, and Lin Xue took another set of disinfectant supplies back to the ward.
...
"Senior brother, I didn't expect to need that ointment today, so I only brought the little bit I usually use for self-defense!"
"Let me treat your other injuries first. We'll start applying medicine after the cast is removed!"
Lin Xue pulled a necklace from around her neck, with a small glass bottle attached to the bottom.
The glass bottle was only slightly larger than a fingertip. Lin Xue first disinfected the wound on Wang Shengli's hand, and then used a cotton swab to pick out some ointment and apply it to Wang Shengli's wound.
"Junior sister, is this the Black Jade Bone-Mending Ointment you mentioned? It feels cool and refreshing as soon as I applied it, and it seems to have stopped hurting so much!"
Just before Lin Xue applied the medicine, both Wang Shengli and Lao Wang were skeptical of her claims about her medical skills.
But the moment the medicine was applied to his hands, Wang Shengli suddenly began to believe what Lin Xue had said.
"No, this is medicine for treating external injuries. We'll have to collect the medicinal herbs and reconstitute the Black Jade Bone-Mending Ointment after we get back!"
Lin Xue applied the medicine to Wang Shengli's hands, forehead, and...
The rest was to have Lao Wang apply the medicine. Because the wound was in a rather unusual location, Lin Xue could only turn her back and instruct Lao Wang to apply the medicine to the wound according to her instructions.
"Alright, don't wrap your hands in bandages anymore! It's quite hot in this weather, and it's not good for your hands to be constantly stuffy!"
"The wound on your forehead hasn't completely scabbed over yet. Wait until tomorrow and have the nurse remove the gauze!"
"As for the other injuries, you can handle them yourself! Don't cover the scabbed ones with gauze anymore!"
After explaining some precautions, Lin Xue picked up her basket and prepared to leave.
"Senior brother, your injury isn't too serious. I'll prepare the ointment and send it to Master as soon as I'm done. Don't worry too much; with your junior sister here, I'll definitely make sure you don't become a cripple!"
Having studied alchemy for so long in her previous life, Lin Xue knew more about medicinal herbs than most doctors.
She really can concoct a medicine that can regenerate broken bones; this is not just Lin Xue boasting.
Lin Xue couldn't possibly give the spiritual medicine from her spatial storage to Wang Shengli. If the higher-ups noticed the medicine, it would be difficult to explain.
After leaving Wang Shengli's ward, Lin Xue went to the pharmacy in front and got some traditional Chinese medicine.
Old Wang stayed by her side the whole time, watching her go to the Chinese medicine department with ease.
Watching her chat familiarly with the old Chinese medicine doctor about medicinal herbs, and then watching the old doctor reluctantly try to persuade her to stay.
When he walked out of the hospital, Old Wang no longer doubted Lin Xue's identity as a descendant of the medical family.
"Master, I'll arrive in town around 8 a.m. tomorrow. Remember not to go out tomorrow, as I might be bringing my partner and father-in-law with me!"
If it's just for meeting work targets, then all you need to do is bring Gu Heping.
But there's also the apprenticeship ceremony, and the Gu family will definitely need an elder to witness it.
