Chapter 62: Don’t let yourself be wronged

At noon, Lin Nuan stayed for lunch, along with Zhao Hanwen. Su Yao and Lin Nuan naturally cooked.

Although she didn't spend much time there, she was able to extract a lot of information from everyone's conversation, which helped her resolve her doubts.

It turns out that Zhao Hanwen and Song Ziyuan are really related.

The real family of traditional Chinese medicine is the Zhao family. Song Ziyuan is an orphan. When he was a child, he went to the door of the Zhao family to beg for food. He was taken in by the old man of the Zhao family, who was also Zhao Hanwen's father. At first, he worked as a handyman in the pharmacy. Later, the old man of the Zhao family found that he had the talent to study medicine, so he accepted him as an apprentice. The old man of the Zhao family had two children, a son and a daughter. The son is Zhao Hanwen, and the daughter is Zhao Fang. After a long time of getting along, Zhao Fang and Song Ziyuan fell in love with each other. The old man Zhao was also very satisfied with Song Ziyuan, so they had a good marriage.

Zhao Hanwen and his wife had been childless for many years after their marriage. Later it was diagnosed that the problem was with the woman, but the couple had a good relationship and did not divorce.

In order to express his gratitude to the Zhao family for their kindness to him, Song Ziyuan let his youngest son take his mother's surname, Zhao.

Song Ziyuan had three children in total. Zhao Mingyan was the youngest. He had an older brother and an older sister. His brother unfortunately died in the turmoil. His sister was someone no one wanted to mention, and they had cut off all contact with her.

He must have done something bad, otherwise the whole family wouldn't be so resentful of him and don't even want to mention it.

After Lin Nuan returned home, she told her family about her apprenticeship. The next day, her family visited her again with the apprenticeship gift and booked a table at the hotel. The two families had a meal together and got to know each other. This was considered a formal apprenticeship.

Since becoming Lin Nuan's apprentice, her life has become even busier.

I always feel that time can be squeezed away like a sponge. Apart from school time, I don't have time to go shopping and play with Shen Baozhu on Saturdays and Sundays. Most of the time, I study with Song Ziyuan in the Song family's old house. Of course, I make rapid progress.

Time flies quickly. Another month has passed in the blink of an eye. Autumn has passed and winter has quietly arrived. People on the street are wearing thicker and thicker clothes.

It was another Sunday. A few days ago, there was a light snow. It is said that every time a winter snow falls, the weather gets colder. The weather was getting colder day by day. Lin Nuan wrapped herself in her cashmere coat, put on a hat and a scarf, and rabbit fur gloves. She carried a small backpack and rode a bicycle to go to the Song family. When she left the house, she suddenly felt a little regretful.

Why do you want to give up your good life and ride your own shabby little bike?

You already have four wheels at home, so why put yourself through this?

But I just refused. Wouldn’t it seem a bit…

Forget it. There’s no point in trying to be strong in front of my family. I have to be able to bend and stretch myself.

After returning the bicycle, he trotted back home.

"It's too cold outside, I'd better take the bus! Dad, will it really not delay your work if you take me there? Otherwise, let the driver take you first, and it's okay if I'm a little late."

He Yunzhou looked at Lin Nuan who had returned and smiled dotingly, "Don't worry, it won't delay my work."

He had just gotten ready to go out to work, and had originally wanted to take his daughter with him because it was too cold outside.

He also knew why his daughter refused, because she was worried that it would delay his work.

He had just discussed it with Wang Xiaoli and felt that the family should have a car so that traveling would be more convenient. His wife and daughter often go out, and he would feel bad if they got cold.

Not only He Yunzhou thought so, Lin Nuan also had this idea.

She is not short of money and she is old enough to be an adult now and can get a driver's license.

Her main consideration was that she was still just a student and shouldn't be too conspicuous.

But now the weather is getting colder and colder. If she has to choose between putting herself in a difficult position and causing others to envy her, she must not put herself in a difficult position.

Their family didn't have to worry about anything. Although He Yunyang and He Yunzhou worked in the military and politics respectively, Qi Shiya was a businessman with a very big business. Lin Nuan also had shares in her clothing business. Wang Xiaoli was not idle after arriving in Beijing, and she opened a private custom clothing store.

Lin Nuan alone gets a lot of dividends from her shares every year, so she has already become a rich and beautiful lady!

In the eyes of outsiders, the He family is rich and powerful. If they buy a car for transportation, even if it is a luxury car, no one can find any fault with it.

He Yunzhou sent Lin Nuan to the door of the Song family, arranged a time to pick her up, and left for work.

When the weather gets cold, Song Ziyuan's legs hurt a lot because he suffered from some health problems in his early years, namely rheumatism. When the weather changes, his legs hurt a lot, especially when the weather gets colder. Sometimes he can't even get out of bed because of the pain in his legs.

There is a saying that goes, a doctor should not treat himself.

The weather wasn’t that cold before, and Song Ziyuan’s leg pain wasn’t that severe. But after a light snow a few days ago, the temperature dropped suddenly, and the leg pain became more and more severe.

Before, Lin Nuan felt that Song Ziyuan was a little old, and wanted to help him take care of his body, but the Song family had a nanny who specialized in cooking. Every time Lin Nuan came, she would secretly add one or two drops of spiritual spring water to the food, but after all, she only came a few times, and the amount she put in was small, otherwise Song Ziyuan would not have such severe leg pain.

It's not like it has no effect at all. I heard it's better than in previous years.

Seeing that Song Ziyuan was unable to get out of bed due to the pain in his legs, Lin Nuan felt sorry for him and took the initiative to help boil the medicine. She added more spiritual spring water when boiling the medicine. She didn't know if the spiritual spring water was omnipotent or whether it could cure rheumatism, but she just wanted to give it a try. She didn't dare to add too much at a time for fear of being discovered.

She felt that she had to think of a way, otherwise Song Ziyuan would have a very hard time enduring this winter.

Come to think of it, if I want to avoid suspicion, I have to resort to the old tricks again.

Lin Nuan handed the prepared medicine to Song Ziyuan.

"Master, you are a Chinese medicine practitioner, but have you never really studied how to cure your own illness?"

Song Ziyuan took the bowl and drank the medicine without blinking.

"How could I not have studied it? I have taken a lot of medicine. Am I not still taking it? But it can only provide temporary relief and cannot cure the root cause. If acupuncture and moxibustion are combined with decoctions, the effect will be better, but it is only a temporary solution and not a permanent cure."

Even if it's a little better, it's good. Why should you put yourself in a difficult position when there is a way to avoid suffering?

But soon Lin Nuan found out why Song Ziyuan stopped giving her acupuncture.

Just holding this empty medicine bowl, my hands were shaking.

"Master, please teach me acupuncture! I can help you with acupuncture when I learn it. My grandparents were not in good health before, so I found a few recipes for medicinal diet and helped them recuperate for a period of time. Their bodies have become much stronger. I will also help you make medicinal diet when the time comes. Maybe after some recuperation, your legs will not hurt so much."

Song Ziyuan nodded with satisfaction.

"I was thinking that I would teach you acupuncture after you have a solid foundation. Now is an opportunity. I will give you a day off today. My silver needles are in the pharmacy. I will tell Mingyan and you can go get them. I will teach you acupuncture tomorrow. As for medicinal food, I have never tried it before. It would be nice to give it a try."
