Su Ruojin would occasionally return to Mu'an Village to chat and have meals with her masters.
Now that she only hears her fourth master's zither music once in a long while, Su Ruojin feels it's not as unbearable as before, and she can even hear new pieces composed by her fourth master.
Every time she returns to the village, she still provides free medical consultations for the villagers under the big tree, telling them to go to Ren'ai Hall to see her if they have any sudden illnesses.
Grandpa Xiao was so angry when he saw her bring a bunch of prescriptions as calligraphy practice that his beard bristled.
However, Su Ruojin would always bring him Zou Ji's lotus flower pastries and sweet-talk him, so Grandpa Xiao wouldn't mind.
Only Wang Xing knew that his master was very satisfied with his apprentice, Miss Su.
After Miss Su left, the master once said that there were very few people in the entire Great Chu Kingdom who could match Miss Su's calligraphy.
The only one who felt uncomfortable living like this was Old Madam Lin.
She sighed all day long, feeling like she had nothing to do.
Yuan Hong was busy practicing martial arts and studying military strategy every day, while Zhi Hua and Yan Luo had to see patients and manage various matters at the clinic.
The clinic has maids and servants to do all the menial tasks. If Madam Lin wants to sweep the floor or wash clothes, someone will immediately take over, so as not to tire her out.
When she wanted to embroider, Su Ruojin wouldn't let her, saying it would hurt her eyes and that she should find an embroiderer to do whatever pattern she wanted.
Before, she could take care of Xiao Bao, but now that Xiao Bao has gone back home, Old Madam Lin is completely idle. She doesn't dare to go to the front clinic, for fear of affecting the doctors' consultations.
When Su Ruojin returned to the backyard after finishing her work at the clinic, she saw Old Madam Lin sitting idly in a recliner, basking in the sun.
"Grandmother," Su Ruojin called softly. Old Madam Lin sat up straight and smiled, "Little Jin, are you done with your work?"
"Hmm." Su Ruojin walked to her side: "Is Grandmother feeling bored?"
"Alas, I was born to be a busybody. I've been busy for most of my life, and now that I have some free time, I can't stay idle," Old Madam Lin sighed.
Since raising Lin Zhengshan on her own, Madam Lin has become accustomed to doing everything herself. Now that she is asked to relax and enjoy life, she feels uncomfortable all over.
Su Ruojin smiled and said, "Grandmother, if you really can't stand being idle, how about I find you something to do?"
She was also afraid that if Old Madam Lin continued to be idle like this, she would get sick from it.
Upon hearing this, Old Madam Lin's eyes lit up: "Great! What is it? But Grandmother is getting old, won't it be a burden to you?"
"Of course not, with my grandmother's help, things will be easier for me."
"Then tell me quickly, what can Grandma do?" Old Madam Lin looked eager to try.
“Grandmother, most of the herbs in the yard were damaged before. We’ll replant some later. These herbs are quite delicate and take care of them. The maids and servants in the yard are also busy, and I’m afraid they won’t take good enough care of them. I’ll only feel at ease if you help take care of them, Grandmother.”
"No problem, Grandma will take care of it." Taking care of the herbal medicine was not a difficult task, and Old Madam Lin was naturally willing.
"Also, Grandmother, the number of patients coming to the clinic for medicinal steaming, medicinal baths, and acupuncture has increased. I'll have to trouble you to keep an eye on things for me. If any patients need anything, please call the maids or servants to handle it."
From now on, I will also teach my grandmother some basic acupuncture techniques, as well as how to prepare prescriptions for medicinal steaming and medicinal baths. After learning, my grandmother will be able to handle some ordinary acupuncture, medicinal steaming, and medicinal bathing tasks at the clinic. I just don't know if my grandmother will be willing to learn.
Madam Lin was a little excited: "I'm willing, I'm willing, but Grandmother is so old, can she learn it?"
Su Ruojin nodded: "Of course, if I teach her, Grandmother will definitely be able to learn."
Madam Lin is only in her early fifties, and with Su Ruojin secretly taking care of her health, she looks no more than forty years old. As long as she studies diligently, there's no reason why she can't learn it.
"Good, good, that's wonderful! Xiao Jin, come on, come on, you teach me now." Old Madam Lin suddenly stood up from the recliner and pulled Su Ruojin to start learning.
"Grandmother, don't rush, let's plant the herbs first." Su Ruojin said with a smile. This old lady Lin was also an impatient person, and when she got anxious, she was no different from a child.
As a result, in the days that followed, Madam Lin was always busy at the clinic, and she looked much more energetic than before.
Gradually, people also began to call Madam Lin "Doctor Lin".
Su Ruojin felt that it was fine to continue living like this.
But in this world, the tree may wish to be still, but the wind will not cease.
