Well, Qin Xue learned a lot of inside information today.
Could she perhaps use her medical skills to help Fang Hong?
As soon as she thought of it, she put Jingtao on the bed and folded a cloth on the table, then called Fang Hong over: âSister-in-law, come here for a moment and put your hand on this.â
âQin Xue, are you going to treat my illness?â Fang Hong sat in front of Qin Xue and put her hand on the cloth.
âWell, sister-in-law, I just heard you guys talking and wanted to try, but Iâm not sure if Iâll be successful.â
Qin Xue just thought she might as well try and see if it was a condition she could treat.
Qin Xue placed her hand on Fang Hongâs wrist, quietly feeling her pulse, and recalling the Chinese medicine knowledge her grandfather taught her. Then she switched to her other hand to continue taking her pulse.
Turns out, Qin Xue really could treat this condition: âSister-in-law, do you trust me?â Qin Xue let go of Fang Hongâs hand.
âQin Xue, what do you mean? Can you really treat my illness?â Fang Hong asked excitedly.
âYes, I can, but do you believe I can cure it?â Qin Xue thought it was better to ask clearly first.
âI believe you. I trust you,â said Fang Hong, feeling very lucky today.
âSister-in-law, you havenât seen me treat anyone before. Just because I said I could, you believe me?â Qin Xue asked Fang Hong with a smile.
âYes, I believe you. Although I havenât seen you treat anyone and I donât know how you can treat people, but I just believe you, just like when you said you wanted to make clothes for sale,â Fang Hong didnât know why, but she believed in Qin Xue.
âAlright, as long as you believe me, Iâll write you a prescription, and you can bring me the herbs after you buy them. Iâll cook the medicine for you, and after three months, youâll be better.
But during these three months, thereâs one crucial rule: if you break it once, all previous efforts will be wasted, â Qin Xue looked at Fang Hong with wide-open eyes, and a smirk on her lips.
âWhatâs the matter? Why are you making that faceâ¦â Fang Hong couldnât figure out what Qin Xue was trying to express.
âWell, during the three months of taking the medicine, you and Mr. Xie cannot haveâ¦you know,â Qin Xue explained with a smile, nudging her lips towards Fang Hong.
With a loud âboom,â Fang Hongâs face turned as red as a cooked shrimp, and everyone else laughed. Even more embarrassed, Fang Hong pointed at Qin Xue, âYou little girl, are you asking for a beating? You even tease me.â
âSister-in-law, Iâm not teasing you, Iâm being serious.
If you have sex while taking the medicine, itâs like a blown-up balloon losing air, you get it?
Even the order of cooking the medicine is different, so thatâs why Iâm telling you to bring the herbs to me, and Iâll cook them for you,â Qin Xue wrote a prescription for Fang Hong.
âSister-in-law, could you not tell anyone that Iâm helping you treat your illness?â Qin Xue didnât want to draw too much attention now, she just wanted to focus on designing clothes and making money quietly.
âHmm, why?â Not only did Fang Hong not understand, but Yu Xiu and Fang Xiu didnât understand either.
âBecause I donât want to attract too much attention. As you all know, Iâm pregnant and also designing clothes.
If people find out I can treat illnesses, wonât that be too high-profile?
What if someone gets jealous and causes trouble?
So, please sister-in-law, help me keep my secret. Besides, arenât you afraid it wonât work, and
what if I canât cure your illness? Itâs not too late to talk about it after youâre really healed, right?â
Qin Xue didnât want to assume the worst of people, but in these impoverished times, many would get jealous and cause trouble when they saw someone with money, and thatâs exactly what she wanted to avoid.
âAlright, we wonât tell anyone; itâll be our little secret,â the other three thought about it and agreed. Since Qin Xue didnât want people to know, they wouldnât say anything.
âSister-in-law, take this prescription and get ten sets of herbs for ten days, drink it twice a day. After ten days, Iâll adjust the prescription for you to get more herbs.
Go and get the herbs at lunchtime when the shop is less busy, and get a medicine pot while youâre at it.
Cook the medicine at home in the morning, drink it, then come to the shop. Drink it once again when you return home in the evening,â Qin Xue thought for a moment and told her.
She could cook the medicine once in the morning and drink it, then heat it up in the afternoon and drink it again.
Mainly, Qin Xue wanted to use spiritual spring water as a medicinal guide to cook the medicine, afraid that others would discover her hidden space. Otherwise, Qin Xue would have just let Fang Hong cook the medicine herself instead of doing it on her own.
Sigh, even if she was helping Fang Hong treat her illness, she couldnât let them know about her hidden space. No matter how good a person is, in the face of great interests, who knows what they might become..
