Chapter 28 I Have a Secret



After saying this, he looked at He Jinshu with a slightly smug expression.

After hearing this, He Jinshu turned and looked at Chen Chen in shock. His heart was also in turmoil. He asked uncertainly, "What did you just say?"

"I said I could heal Grandpa's leg."

"How do you treat it?"

Grandpa's leg injury has been going on for almost ten years. He Jinshu has consulted doctors before, but they were all helpless. In the end, He Jinshu had no choice but to give up.

Chen Zhen is a kid who can't even read a single word. How can he cure grandpa's leg?

"We have to knock grandpa and grandma unconscious first, then I can treat grandpa's leg."

"Why did you knock him out?"

"Because it's a secret, we can't let too many people know about it. If others find out, something bad will happen."

He Jinshu looked at him with some suspicion when he heard this, and then said, "Demonstrate it first, and let me see how you treat it."

"Okay then." Chen Chen said helplessly.

After that, he found a set of kitchen knives in the dowry box. Mother Shen knew that Shen Zhen liked to cook, so she specially asked someone to make a set of knives for him and put it in his dowry.

Chen Zhen took out a fruit knife from inside, then turned around and grabbed He Jinshu's hand, cutting a cut on his finger. Blood instantly flowed out of the wound, and some drops fell to the ground.

He Jinshu didn't understand why Chen Zhen cut his finger and was just waiting for his next move.

Chen Chen raised He Jinshu's hand and waved it at him, then said, "Look carefully."

After saying that, he stretched out his left hand and covered He Jinshu's injured index finger. A warm feeling slid across it, and when Chen Zhen took his hand away, He Jinshu saw that his index finger had become intact, without any trace of the wound.

If there weren't still traces of blood on his fingers, he would have thought he was seeing things.

He Jinshu brought his fingers close to his eyes and looked at them carefully, and found that even the lines on his fingers had returned to their original appearance.

This scene made He Jinshu feel shocked.

He didn't know what kind of ability this was. He only knew that what Chen Zhen said was right. This was indeed a secret that could not be known to others.

So he raised his head and asked Chen Zhen, "Who knows about this?"

"You and I, I didn't even tell my parents." Chen Chen looked at He Jinshu and said with a little pride.

"Why did you tell me?"

"You are my partner, there can't be any secrets between partners." Chen Chen said as if it was a matter of course.

"Aren't you afraid that I will tell others?" He Jinshu looked at Chen Chen steadily and asked.

"Ashu, you are a good person, you wouldn't do that."

After hearing these words, He Jinshu didn't know what he felt in his heart for a moment. Was he moved? Of course he was moved. Being trusted so wholeheartedly and loved so unreservedly, his heart was not made of stone, so it was natural for him to be moved.

He raised his hand and pinched Chen Zhen's earlobe, then warned him: "You did the right thing. Don't easily expose this ability of yours to outsiders in the future."

"No, I haven't told anyone except you."

After that, he said, "Ashu, when are we going to take Grandpa to see a doctor? Unfortunately, my treatment level is not high enough, so I can't cure everything in one go. But at most, it will take me five times to heal Grandpa's leg, so we have to knock Grandpa and Grandma unconscious five times."

He Jinshu took his hand away from his earlobe and said to him, "There's no rush. Let's talk about it later."

"Why? If he is cured sooner, grandpa can stand up sooner." Chen Chen asked in confusion.

"Let's talk about it when I get back to the farm. If you want to treat your grandparents, you must have someone to watch over them at the door so that your secret won't be discovered, right?

It just so happens that I have time to help you watch the door during my agricultural holiday, so you won't be easily discovered, right?" He Jinshu said to him.

He Jinshu discovered that Chen Zhen's style of doing things has its own logic. If you don't explain it to him according to his logic, he will still act according to his own ideas.

So He Jinshu could only try his best to explain it to him smoothly so that he wouldn't really knock his grandparents out.

Chen Zhen thought about it and felt that what He Jinshu said made sense, so he said, "Okay, then we'll treat Grandpa when you're on vacation, but when will you have your farming vacation?"

"In July."

After hearing this, Chen Zhen calculated the time. It seemed that there was still more than a month left, which was not too long. So he could wait.

After chatting about this, Chen Chen said to He Jinshu, "Then Ah Shu, you should study hard. I'm going out."

"Okay." He Jinshu nodded.

Before leaving, Chen Zhen took out another 100 taels of silver from the dowry box and planned to give it to Grandma He later so that she could buy more things needed for the family and not have to be so frugal in her life.

After He Jinshu knew Chen Zhen's intention of taking the money, he suddenly felt complicated again. He wondered if he should reconsider their current relationship.

After Chen Zhen went out, he found Grandma He and gave her the 100 taels of silver.

Grandma He didn't want it. That was Chen Zhen's dowry. How could she have the nerve to use his money?

"Grandma, I have money and I can make a lot of money in the future. If you don't take this money, I will be angry." Chen Chen said with a stern face.

Seeing this, Grandma He had no choice but to accept the money, and then said lovingly: "Brother Zhen, it's really unfair for you to marry Xiaoshu."

Not only was the betrothal gift not much, but even the wedding ceremony was extremely shabby.

"What did grandma say? I am happy to marry Ah Shu. I don't feel wronged at all."

Grandma He laughed when she heard this. Fortunately, Ah Shu met Ting Ge'er, otherwise she didn't know what kind of life he would live in the future.

He Jinshu, who was in the study, also heard the conversation between Chen Chen and Grandma He. A faint smile appeared on the corner of his mouth silently, and then he returned to normal.

The next day after breakfast, Chen Chen said to He Jinshu, "Ah Shu, I'm going to town."

"What are you going to do in town?"

"I ordered a carriage in town the other day, and I'm going to pick it up today."

Chen Zhen had previously bought a horse for the wedding, and the carriage needed to be custom-made, so he was not in a hurry to pick it up.

"I'll go with you."

"No, don't you want to study at home?"

"Nothing, I still need to go to town to buy some return gifts."

This time, whether he used his own money or Shen Zhen's money, he should buy a bigger gift for the return visit to save face for the Shen family.

"All right, then. Let's ride to town together."

"Okay," He Jinshu nodded.
