“Xiao Song, I can’t bear to see you and Xiao Qin walk all the way from Tiger Town to Qiaoxing Village in this freezing weather. Listen to your aunt, you two should come with us to my son’s house for a hot drink first, and then my son will drive you to Qiaoxing Village.”
Song Lan and the elderly couple, Mrs. Xu and her husband, sat in the back seat of the car. Mrs. Xu held her hand and patted the back of her hand as she spoke, saying, "It's ten miles away. It will be so tiring for you and Xiao Qin to walk there!"
“There should be an oxcart going that way in town, I…”
Before Song Lan could finish speaking, Liu Feng's voice came from the driver's seat: "There's been no market in town lately, and there are very few horse-drawn carriages coming out of the villages."
Upon hearing this, Song Lan's lips twitched almost imperceptibly. Didn't she know that was just an excuse?
It's necessary to shut her up with words...
"My sister-in-law and I are in good physical condition, so it won't take us long to walk there."
From the passenger side, Qin Boyan suddenly said something.
Liu Feng's expression was unreadable as he asked, "You don't have some kind of problem with me, do you?"
"That's not true."
Qin Boyan hurriedly replied.
Song Lan said with a smile, "We just felt it wouldn't be right to trouble you, since this car belongs to the government. It would be bad if we caused you any negative impact..."
Her words were interrupted by Liu Feng again: "I pay for the fuel myself. This is common in our team. Everyone knows this, and no one will complain about it."
Liu Zhiyuan: "Xiao Song, it's fate that we met, you don't need to be so polite with us."
"..."
Song Lan remained silent for a moment, then smiled and said, "Then let me take your and your aunt's pulses."
"Uncle Liu, Aunt Xu, my sister-in-law's medical skills are excellent. Many patients who have been treated by her have written letters of praise to her workplace."
Qin Boyan's tone unconsciously revealed pride as he said, "There's an older woman in our residential compound who has suffered from headaches for many years. Before my sister-in-law treated her, she went to the hospital countless times."
The treatment was ineffective until my sister-in-law took her pulse and, through acupuncture and a simple prescription, cured the old lady's headache in a short time.
By the way, my sister-in-law's homemade special hemostatic and anti-inflammatory medicine was recently seized by the army...
"Second brother!"
Song Lan spoke up.
Qin Boyan knew that his sister-in-law Song Lan wouldn't let him say too much, so he chuckled and touched his nose, looking at Song Lan and saying, "Sister-in-law, don't be angry. I was wrong. I shouldn't have talked too much."
"I'm not angry."
Song Lan shook her head, then looked at Lin Zhiyuan and his wife, a faint smile on her lips, and said, "Traditional Chinese medicine is profound and extensive. I only know a little bit about it. Uncle Liu, you, Aunt, and Brother Liu, don't listen to my second brother's exaggeration."
"The higher-ups have been providing us with special medicines, hemostatic and anti-inflammatory drugs. Comrades who were injured while refusing to go on missions came back and said that the effects were exceptionally good and greatly reduced the casualty rate."
After digesting what Qin Boyan said, Liu Feng was quite surprised. He didn't think Qin Boyan was lying or exaggerating. In his opinion, the effective hemostatic and anti-inflammatory drugs they were using were probably made from the formula provided by Song Lan.
Perhaps the prescription for strengthening bones and muscles is also related to Song Lan.
Thinking this, Liu Feng said, "Through soaking in the medicinal bath, our muscles and bones have truly been strengthened. Comrade Song, thank you..."
"Brother Liu, you..."
Without needing to think too much, Song Lan knew that with Liu Feng's professionalism, he had probably already guessed what was going on.
Moreover, there were Qin Boyan's previous remarks.
If she doesn't admit it, she'll be being a bit pretentious.
"I just did something I wanted to do, and to be honest, I didn't think there was anything wrong with it."
Song Lan said casually with a smile, then quickly changed the subject: "Auntie, let me take your pulse first."
"Okay, okay, thank you for your trouble!"
Grandma Xu smiled and extended her hand.
_
After taking Mrs. Xu's pulse, Song Lan truthfully described her physical condition, which greatly surprised the elderly couple.
They had undergone examinations at a major hospital, specifically at a specialist clinic. Their physical ailments were exactly the same as what Song Lan had described, and in some details, Song Lan's description was even more accurate.
"Auntie, I'll write you a prescription. After you finish taking the herbal decoction as I instructed, all your old ailments will be completely cured. However..."
After that, you need to pay more attention to your diet and also get regular exercise. Only in this way can you have a healthy body.
"No acupuncture?"
“If you combine this with acupuncture, you’ll recover a little faster, but it’s inconvenient for both of us, so I’ve prescribed you a few more doses of herbal medicine.”
"Thank you, good child!"
Mrs. Xu was filled with gratitude: "I've taken a lot of medicine for these ailments, both Western and Chinese medicine, but each time the symptoms would only be milder, not cured. And once I stopped taking the medicine, the old ailments would return to normal."
If you really cure her, my aunt will be laughing in her sleep!
"Actually, if you're still worried, Auntie, you can take the prescription I gave you to a doctor you know to take a look. That way you'll feel more at ease taking it."
Song Lan wasn't lacking in self-confidence; she was trying to reassure Fang.
reason?
They only met on the train. Even if they felt they clicked and got along well, it's their own body to take care of, and it's always better to be cautious.
"Look at what you're saying, do you think your aunt doesn't trust you?"
Grandma Xu smiled and waved her hand, not taking Song Lan's words to heart.
"It's never wrong to be cautious."
Song Lanming's eyes were smiling, his expression open and natural.

Liu Zhiyuan sat by the other side of the car door, with Old Madam Xu between him and Song Lan, making it inconvenient to take her pulse.
