Before, Lin Dan had always said that she knew medical skills and even prepared medicine for Bai Zhilan. The audience just thought she was a drama queen, trying to create a persona of "inheritor of intangible cultural heritage" in variety shows to make herself look more advanced. Her professional medicine-making techniques were also slandered by some haters as a pre-rehearsed show-off.
In short, few people believe that she is a skilled doctor, but many people think that she is just being mysterious.
But now, under the surveillance of the high-definition camera, the girl's tumor changed from full to dry, from growing wildly to suddenly falling off. Everything is clear and obvious. Unless the program team invents the black technology of doing special effects while broadcasting live, no one can deny the authenticity of these pictures.
Lin Dan handed a small mirror to the girl and said gently, "Don't wash your face for three days. If you really can't stand it, wipe it with saline, but be careful not to rub the wound. This box of ointment is for scar removal and anti-inflammatory. Apply it three times a day for a month, and it should be completely healed when you return to the village next time. Eat a light diet, don't eat hairy foods and chili peppers, and get enough rest."
The girl nodded frequently, staring at herself in the mirror with a mixed expression of sadness and joy. Because of these tumors, she suffered ridicule and humiliation. She thought they would follow her for the rest of her life, but she did not expect that they would be cured in just twenty minutes.
It turns out that no matter how difficult things are, as long as you persevere, you can get through them. With red eyes, she looked at Lin Dan and choked up, "Aunt Lin, thank you. When the school is on vacation, I will help you plant flowers. You can let me do all the work of carrying water and manure. I am very strong."
"Okay." Lin Dan agreed straightforwardly.
Mrs. Li happily took out a small cloth bag and opened it layer by layer. "Xiao Lin, this is 500 yuan, keep it. I'll ask Xiao Na to bring some bacon over later. You have a lot of people here and the expenses are high."
Lin Dan stuffed the small cloth bag into the old lady's trouser pocket and explained while pushing the grandparents and grandchildren out of the door: "There are red-footed mugwort all over the mountain here. I can easily pull a handful. Why are you giving me 500 yuan? I didn't spend a penny on Xiaona's treatment. How can I accept it? They are here to work. I don't have to pay for their expenses. Don't worry about it. Go back quickly. Xiaona still has a scar on her face. You can cook her a fish to heal it."
The old lady couldn't push anymore and had to take her granddaughter home. After taking three steps, she turned back to look at Lin Dan, her face full of gratitude. The girl was also very happy. She stood on the opposite side of the field, waving her hands and shouting, "Auntie Lin, I'll help you with the work during the holiday!"
Lin Dan waved her hand, and the grandparents and grandchildren walked away, supporting each other.
The cameraman filmed the two people who depended on each other for a long time...
With a creaking sound, the courtyard door was closed by Lin Dan. Bai Zhilan came back to her senses and said in a daze, "You really know medical skills?"
Lin Dan frowned and asked back: "I don't know medical skills, why should I help you make medicine? Will it harm you?"
Bai Zhilan's cheeks turned slightly red. She said "I'm sorry" in a low voice and ran back to the bedroom. She opened the box, scraped off a layer of green ointment, and applied it thickly on her face. Her inner doubts and hesitations had been completely dispelled by her mother's superb medical skills.
The audience in the live broadcast room discussed heatedly: [Was the shot of burning the tumor just now fake? 】
[It’s not fake.] Firstly, this is a live broadcast, so there is no way to have special effects; secondly, the cameraman shot the entire thing in one shot, with no switching of scenes or changes in perspective, so it is impossible to have edited it. 】
[In other words, Bai Zhilan's mother really used a small wooden stick to burn off the tumor on the person's face? Isn’t this amazing? 】
[That is not a wooden stick, it is moxibustion, a treatment method in Traditional Chinese Medicine. 】
[There's nothing magical about this. It's just a few tumors. I can go to a big hospital and have a few surgeries to remove them and it'll be fixed. It's very simple. 】
[Simple as hell!] When you go to a big hospital, you first have to register, then take X-rays, blood tests, urine tests, etc., to make sure there are no other problems and you can have the surgery. Only then will the doctor make an appointment with you. After the surgery, you will be given an IV drip to reduce inflammation, prescribe some medicine, and then you can go home. The entire process, including registration fees, physical examination fees, surgery fees, medicine fees, and round-trip transportation fees, costs at least one or two thousand yuan, and it also takes a long time, at least three days and at most half a month. But with Bai Zhilan’s mother, it only took more than 20 minutes and it was free of charge. Which one do you think is better? The simpler the disease, the more it can reflect whether a person's medical skills are excellent. I am not a fan of Bai Zhilan, but I can say responsibly that Bai Zhilan’s mother must be an expert in traditional Chinese medicine! 】
[She cured her daughter’s allergies and insomnia in just one day. I also think Bai Zhilan’s mother is not an ordinary person. 】
[Stop bragging, these are all actors invited by the program team, they are here to give Bai Zhilan more roles! 】
[Don’t criticize recklessly, or you’ll get slapped in the face.] It’s true that Bai Zhilan’s skin condition is bad and she’s suffering from severe hair loss. Didn’t Bai’s mother say she would help her regulate her skin? We will find out as we take a closer look. 】
There was a lot of noise in the live broadcast room, but Bai Zhilan hid in the bathroom, applying medicine in front of the mirror. It seemed that she had not applied enough on her forehead, so she scooped out a little to fill it up. If she had not applied enough on the tip of her nose, she would evenly apply it on her cheeks. She didn't stop until she had a big green face. As for things like screen image, they are no longer within her consideration now. Once a person's bottom line is broken, the only thing that will come is even more outrageous behavior. Yesterday her face was rotten like a moldy orange peel, and it was broadcast by the high-definition camera. What does she care about today?
She was having a great time here, but on the other end, Guo Yuwei received a call from Shen Bishui.
Chen Bishui is the top star in Bai Zhilan's company, a top-tier movie star, very straightforward, and has superb acting skills. She and Bai Zhilan became good friends at first sight and they often get together. Originally, she was strongly opposed to Bai Zhilan's participation in this variety show and had no intention of watching it. But in just two days, Bai Zhilan and her mother appeared on Weibo hot searches several times, gradually attracting her attention. She couldn't get through to Bai Zhilan on the phone, so she had to find Guo Yuwei.
"Yuwei, let Lanlan answer the phone."
“Sister Shen, Xiaolan is recording a show.”
"Nonsense, I'm in the live studio, of course I know she's recording a show. Call her to the bathroom, I'll talk to her, it won't take any time."
"Okay then, Sister Chen, please wait a moment." Guo Yuwei didn't dare to disobey the company's top sister, so she had to tell the director the situation and asked the director to be flexible for a few minutes.
"Okay, you ask Teacher Bai to answer the phone, we're going to eat noodles." The director was more than happy to do so. He immediately raised a sign for Bai Zhilan to go to the bathroom, and then rushed to the kitchen with the hungry but happy staff. Since graduating from college, they haven't experienced the feeling of fighting for food at mealtime for a long time.
"It smells great and tastes even better! Aunt Lin, your cooking skills are better than those of a five-star chef! How about our program team give you the food allowance and you be responsible for our three meals a day?" the director said with a smug look on his face.
"I'll help you cook. Who will film the show?" Lin Dan poured the cooked noodles into a basin and let everyone help themselves.
The director's expectant expression dimmed, and then he said excitedly, "How about Aunt Lin, next time I plan to shoot a food show, how about you be a permanent guest? With your looks, you can definitely make your debut, really!"
Lin Dan waved her hand nonchalantly: "I'm not planning to enter the entertainment industry." When she found that Bai Zhilan didn't come, she glanced at Xiao Guo, who hid outside the camera and made a gesture to answer the phone.
In the bathroom, Bai Zhilan turned on her cell phone and checked the call log for dozens of missed calls, the most of which were from Chen Bishui. She was about to call back, but Shen Bishui called first. She opened her mouth and asked, "Lanlan, didn't you say your mother didn't have any education? Why do I feel that your mother is more elegant than a socialite? I was shocked when I saw her in person. Oh my god, she's forty years old, but she's better maintained than a twenty-year-old girl! Now everyone outside is scolding Bai Pengfei for being blind and losing his treasure to marry a fool. It's so funny! Have you seen Bai Zhu's live broadcast room? Let me tell you, Liu Manni had hyaluronic acid fillers specially for the recording of the show. The wrinkles on her face are gone, but she looks like a plastic man. She can't laugh or cry. It's so fake! How can she be like your mother? Her face is full of charm and charming, and it's so charming!"
Bai Zhilan sighed, "Sister Shen, don't say you were shocked, I was shocked myself. Her description is completely different from my dad's."
"Can you believe what Bai Pengfei said? You are also stupid." Shen Bishui sighed softly, and then said: "By the way, is your face really healed?"
Bai Zhilan reacted immediately and chuckled, "Sister Chen, are you allergic too?" Both of them have allergies, and they met in the treatment room of the hospital, so they can be considered fellow patients.
"Stop talking. I've had an allergy for more than a month. I just had desensitization treatment a few days ago. I filmed a crying scene today and shed a lot of tears. Now I'm allergic again. My whole face is swollen like a pig's head. I can't film tomorrow's scenes. The director waited for me for a month before, but now I don't know how long I have to wait. He gave me an ultimatum, saying that he only gave me seven days. If the swelling doesn't go down after seven days, he will change the role. Lanlan, is Auntie Lin's medicine really effective?"
Due to her allergic constitution and frequent use of makeup, Chen Bishui's skin has continued to deteriorate in recent years. In severe cases, she would have allergic reactions to her hair and tears, and no medicine worked. She didn't dare use hormone treatment for fear of developing hormone-dependent dermatitis, so when the seasons changed she could only carefully avoid allergens or rest at home.
However, the film she is currently filming is the result of ten years of hard work by an international director, and is expected to win an international award. She will not miss this opportunity no matter what.
Hearing her friend's urgency and anxiety, Bai Zhilan comforted her, "Sister Chen, don't panic. The medicine my mother made is really effective. I'll ask my assistant to send it to you right away. This is a mountainous area, and there's no express delivery. You have to take a few hours' drive to the city, and then send it by express. You'll probably receive it tomorrow night. My allergy is so severe that it only takes one day to heal. You still have at least four or five days to get the medicine, so you'll have enough time."
Chen Bishui let out a long sigh and said gratefully, "Lanlan, I rely on you. I seem to have developed antibodies to those allergy-reducing drugs. Now my face becomes red and swollen when I have an allergy. It won't heal in ten days or half a month. I really have no other choice."
Bai Zhilan kept trying to comfort him, and after hanging up the phone, she handed the medicine box to the staff and asked them to mail it to the city as soon as possible.
