After cleaning up the kitchen with Li Jumei, Song Lan returned to the main room and took the pulses of Song Sanhe and Li Jumei respectively. After giving her diagnosis, she looked towards the door of the main room and saw Song Qinghui swaying slightly. She knew that he probably couldn't hold on any longer, but she didn't soften her heart. Instead, she said, "Second brother, hold on a little longer."
"good!"
Song Qinghui replied.
"Your father and I are going to drink that bitter herbal medicine?"
Li Jumei then asked Song Lan.
"You don't need to drink it for a long time, and the medicine I prepared for you won't be very bitter, so don't worry, Mom."
After taking Song Lan's pulse, she diagnosed that Song Sanhe was somewhat congenitally weak, while Li Jumei suffered from a mild gynecological disease. However, to avoid them having any lingering concerns, Song Lan did not intend to tell them the true diagnosis.
In fact, she didn't tell the two of them.
Over here, Song Lan and Song Sanhe were chatting idly. In the courtyard, large beads of sweat were dripping down Song Qinghui's forehead. He felt that he was about to give up, but when he thought of the set of spear techniques that Song Lan had practiced at home this morning, as well as the boxing techniques and sword techniques that she had practiced on the mountain at noon, he gritted his teeth and persevered.
Keep going!
If a real man can't even handle this, what can he do in the future?
Clenching his teeth, Song Qinghui repeatedly encouraged himself in his heart. Just then, Song Lan's voice rang out: "Alright, Second Brother, time's up."
To Song Qinghui at this moment, the sound was absolutely heavenly, but as soon as he had this thought, he couldn't help but secretly despise himself: Shameful, with such a lowly attitude, if his sister knew, she would definitely laugh at him to death!
Stepping out of the main room, Song Lan took a face towel and approached Song Qinghui: "Wipe your face."
She handed the towel to the other person, saying, "I'm leaving soon. I won't be back this weekend. You should practice horse stance for an hour every morning and evening. Next week, add half an hour to your practice, both in the morning and evening."
"good."
Song Qinghui nodded.
"You can go for a run before practicing the horse stance. Of course, you can also rest for a while after practicing the horse stance and then go for a run around the village a couple of times."
Song Lan said seriously, "Second brother, you need to persevere in doing anything. Otherwise, don't do it in the first place."
"I understand what you mean. Don't worry, I will persevere."
Song Qinghui gave his assurance.
Song Lan added, "I believe Second Brother can do it. I'll be back next weekend. If you pass my test, I'll start teaching you a couple of moves." There are only three days left until the weekend this week. Going back to the village would be too frequent. Besides, the two little ones at home need adult company. In addition, she needs to start giving Qin Yanzheng acupuncture and prepare a medicinal bath.
"Don't worry, little sister, I promise I'll practice my horse stance diligently at home!"
Song Qinghui spoke earnestly, and upon hearing this, Song Lan's eyes showed relief, but in Song Qinghui's eyes, this only made him feel very uncomfortable.
"What's wrong?"
Noticing the change in his expression, Song Lan asked casually.
Song Qinghui quickly shook his head: "It's nothing."
Could he say that he felt his sister looked at him, her older brother, like an elder looking at a younger one?
The answer is naturally no, after all, he still has a sense of shame!
Song Lan: "As long as you are willing to work hard and exercise properly, I will prepare a medicinal bath for you later."
"Medicated bath?"
Song Qinghui looked on with curiosity.
"It is a medicinal bath that can strengthen muscles and bones."
Song Lan said, "This medicinal bath can not only improve the body's metabolism, but also expel evil and turbid qi from the body, thereby relaxing muscles and bones and strengthening the body."
In her past life, as long as the children of the Song family could run and jump, they would start taking medicinal baths to lay a solid foundation for martial arts training and make it easier to improve their martial arts skills.
Song Qinghui's eyes sparkled as he grinned and said, "Little sister, from now on, if you ask me to go east, I will never go west; if you ask me to beat a dog, I will never chase a chicken. In short, whatever you ask me to do, I will never say a word!"
Upon hearing this, Song Lan couldn't help but laugh out loud: "No need to exaggerate like that."
"It's not an exaggeration at all."
Song Qinghui said with a serious expression, "My intuition has always been very accurate. Ever since I met you yesterday and learned that you are my sister, I have had a thought in my heart: I will never go wrong by listening to you for the rest of my life!"
"Really? What if I sell you?"
Song Lan asked with a smile.
Without a second thought, Song Qinghui replied, "My sister sold me out of her own good, she must have been doing it for my own good."
Song Lan was amused again.
"Second brother, you trust me that much?"
Looking at Song Qinghui, Song Lan's eyes were filled with emotion.
"Um."
Song Qinghui nodded heavily.
"Alright, just for the trust you placed in me, second brother, I, your sister, will make sure you live a life worthy of my trust!"
After giving his assurance, Song Lan smiled and said, "Go wash up. I'll leave after I take your pulse."
At the entrance to the main room, Song Sanhe and Li Jumei overheard the conversation between Song Lan and Song Qinghui. To be honest, the couple felt gratified, thinking that it was good that Song Qinghui listened to Song Lan.
They could tell that Song Lan was not only intelligent but also shrewd. Since she could make such a promise to Song Qinghui, she certainly wasn't just making empty promises.
"It seems that the second son is really changing."
This is Li Jumei's voice.
Song Sanhe hummed in agreement and said, "We don't expect him to amount to much. As long as he stays down-to-earth from now on and doesn't wander around aimlessly like before, that's enough!"
Unexpectedly, Li Jumei rolled her eyes and said, "Don't underestimate the second son. He's very smart. He didn't get into high school before because he didn't put in the effort. Now that Lanlan is keeping an eye on him, who knows, the second son might surprise everyone one day!"
"Okay, okay, you're right. I'll wait and see that day."
Song Sanhe said with a forced smile.
Unexpectedly, Li Jumei rolled her eyes at him again. Seeing Song Lan walk into the main room, she said, "When you leave, Mom will tie that bamboo basket to the back seat of the car for you. Remember to take the things out of the basket and put them away properly when you get back."
Li Jumei pointed to the bamboo basket leaning against the wall and showed it to Song Lan.
"Mom, you brought me so many things!"
It was packed full, and most importantly, the bamboo basket was quite large, containing green vegetables, tomatoes, scallions, and dozens of eggs.
Song Lan didn't want it, because in her eyes, her family's life, while not difficult, wasn't particularly good either.
I felt really bad if she took so many things with her.
Especially for precious items like eggs, people in rural areas rarely dared to eat them. They would save them up and sell them to the supply and marketing cooperative to supplement their household income.
"What's so much? It's just some vegetables we grew ourselves and eggs from the chickens we raised. It didn't cost us much. You can take it if you want. If you don't listen, don't come back to this house."
Li Jumei deliberately put on a stern face. What could Song Lan say in response?
She couldn't refuse any longer, so she smiled and said, "Then thank you, Mom. I'll take it all with me and get more from home after I finish eating!"
