Su Wenxiu nodded. “Don’t worry. Yang Cheng will be okay before you know it.”
Yang Cheng became teary-eyed when he heard Su Wenxiu’s affirmation. The former said, “Thank you so much, Doctor Wenxiu.”
He almost failed to suppress his emotions and nearly cried. However, he took a deep breath and held back his tears. Even his wife was thrilled to hear the news.
Grandaunt Yang asked anxiously, “You can reattach his bone?”
“Yes, I can.” Su Wenxiu smiled. He would always bring his medical kit with him wherever he went. The kit contained essential items for emergency treatment. Moreover, bone reconnection was something elementary to Su
Wenxiu.
He had cultivated his basic skills by practicing on injured animals. After much practice, he could even mend an animal’s broken bones with his eyes closed. Later, he performed surgery on people several times and became familiar with it.
Grandaunt Yang wanted to ask if it was okay, but she did not understand the process. She looked at Doctor Yang, and the latter said, “Don’t worry, Grandaunt. Doctor Wenxiu is famous for his medical skills. He cured all of his past patients, and none of them had complaints.”
Su Wenxiu was famous throughout Su Teng Village. He could even cure people of complicated diseases. Previously, he had no way to deal with illnesses, but he had the best mentor, who was his sister.
He could always ask her for help, and she would teach him what she knew. Moreover, the various medicines Su Binglan concocted could cure many diseases.
Even if the commoners faced health issues, Su Wenxiu had no problem dealing with them. Su Binglan also had spiritual spring water. Her medicine would be several times better if she used it to concoct her medicine.
Ultimately, Grandaunt Yang nodded while Yang Cheng looked at Su Wenxiu with a trusting gaze. Soon after, Su Wenxiu twisted Yang Chengs leg and then instantly reconnected it. He then applied an ointment to the affected area and bandaged it.
Yang Cheng did not feel any pain, which surprised him. His wife asked worriedly, “Did it hurt?”
Yang Cheng shook his head. “No, it doesn’t.”
Su Wenxiu said, “l gave you a little numbing cream so it wouldn’t hurt.
However, you’ll feel it once the cream wears off. I’ve applied some ointment to your leg, so you’ll be fine soon.”
Grandaunt Yang carefully asked, “How long will it take for Yang Cheng to recover fully, Doctor Wenxiu?”
“About ten days.” Su Wenxiu used high-quality medicine to quicken the recovery process.
The old woman was shocked that her son would recover so quickly.
Meanwhile, Doctor Yang and her husband smiled at each other, recalling the first time they witnessed Su Wenxiu’s medical skills.
They were just as shocked as Grandaunt Yang at that time. The couple thought Su Wenxiu was ahead of his time. Moreover, he ran a medical school and medical center. He had made many incredible achievements.
Su Wenxiu then told the family some things to take note of, and the others listened to him attentively.
Soon after, everyone retired to their rooms. Doctor Yang shared a room with her husband and son, while Su Wenxiu and Su Binglan had their own rooms.
However, Su Binglan had trouble sleeping. She kept thinking about Yang Village and how to help it. She would first have to gather evidence to deal with the corruption in one go.
Otherwise, people would claim it as false accusations. Su Binglan did not want to harm her brother’s reputation.
After a while, she took out a flute and started playing it using Soul Powers. With that, she could transmit her sounds to very distant locations. She believed her subordinates in Yang County could hear her signals.
Previously, she had asked Su Yi to train more subordinates. Before coming to Yang County, Su Binglan told him to send people there. Hence, after playing the flute, someone would contact her the following day.
Su Binglan fell asleep soon after playing the flute. She woke up early the following day and could smell the fresh air. She even caught the scent of medicinal fragrances in the air.
Su Binglan knew it was because of the many medicinal herbs in the area. Since she woke up pretty early, she could hear the rooster crowing. However, the villagers only woke up after hearing the rooster crow.
After getting up, a shadow descended from a tree in the courtyard. The person addressed Su Binglan, “Master, I’m at your service.”
Su Binglan looked at the person before her, asking, “You’re Su Shiba, correct?”
She had met all her subordinates once, so she could easily recognize them. Su Shiba excitedly said, “Yes, Master. I am your subordinate.”
He did not expect his master to recognize him so quickly.
Su Binglan said, “The merchants here are lowballing the villagers of their medicinal herbs. The magistrate is a terrible man. I need you to gather all the information on these people. I plan to deal with all of them properly.”
Su Shiba nodded in understanding. “Don’t worry, Master. 1 will fulfill your wishes right away.”
Su Binglan would not be courteous to those who bullied the commoners. She said, “Yes, use extreme measures when necessary.”
Su Shiba nodded. “Understood, Master.’
Su Binglan then informed him about a few more things before dismissing him. The villagers did not know about her interactions with Su Shiba, not even Doctor Yang and the others.
Soon after, Su Binglan went to the kitchen and noticed Grandaunt Yang and the others had also woken up. The old woman and the others wanted to prepare breakfast, but they were worried it would not appeal to Su Binglan and her brother.
“Miss Su, what would you like to have for breakfast? We were just thinking of what to make.’
Su Binglan answered, “That’s okay, I’ll make breakfast. I said I’d make tomato tofu soup for you all last night, right?”
Lady Liu was stunned, wondering what tofu was. Suddenly, Grandaunt Yang thought of something and said, “1 know what tofu is. There’s a tofu shop in town, and I heard tofu is soft. The shop owners said they got it from Su Teng
Village. Still, we’ve never tried tofu before.”
She had learned about tofu when she went to set up her stall.
Su Binglan smiled. “l brought tofu, so I’ll add it to the tomato soup for you all to try.”
Grandaunt Yang felt even more embarrassed. She said, “Miss Su, you’ve helped us so much. How can we keep mooching off the things you brought?”
Su Binglan chuckled. “That’s okay. You’ve allowed me to stay in your house, so consider it my accommodation fees. Don’t worry about Wenxiu’s medical fees either. He told me you paid him fifty copper.
“l need your son to get better as soon as possible, too. Then, he can help with the medicinal herb factory. I could use someone as capable as him.”
The old woman was even happier now. Her grandniece had spoken about the salary and bonuses one could receive by working in Su Binglan’s factories. Grandaunt Yang was so grateful that she almost teared up..
