The next day, Meng Anzhi woke up and subconsciously called out "Auntie," only to be surprised to find that she could speak again and her throat no longer hurt.
She didn't bother to put on her shoes, and ran barefoot to the bronze mirror. She ripped off the bandage on her neck and leaned in to examine it closely. The wound, which should have been a dark brown, was much lighter in color.
Meng Anzhi felt a surge of joy, knowing that her aunt was a highly skilled doctor. However, the voice is a woman's second face, and since she couldn't speak, she still needed to rest.
After washing up, Meng Anzhi carefully applied another layer of ointment to her neck, rewrapped the wound, and then walked briskly to the main hall.
Meng Anci was eating a steamed bun with gusto when she saw her come in. She quickly greeted her, "I've already cooled down the porridge for you. Drink it slowly, don't choke."
Meng Anzhi sat down cheerfully, her dejection from yesterday gone, and she seemed much more vibrant.
The porridge slid smoothly down her throat without causing any pain. As she ate, she thought to herself that she should ask her aunt how the ointment was made, and it would be best if she could make it and sell it.
Thinking this, she noticed the two people at the table staring at her. She picked up a steamed bun, gave one to each of them, and gestured for them to eat quickly.
Jin Shanyao and Meng Anci exchanged a glance and breathed a sigh of relief simultaneously.
It seems that the death of Fifth Master Dong has not left a shadow in Meng Anzhi's heart. The girl's mentality is more stable than they expected.
After the meal, Meng Anci of the academy. Jin Shanyao, along with Meng Anzhi, prepared a thank-you gift and made a special trip to Niu Dadan's house to express their gratitude.
Niu Family House on West Street.
Jin Shanyao piled rice, flour, meat, and vegetables all over the room. "Sister... I don't know what to give you. These are all food. Thank you for Dadan saving my child."
Sister-in-law Niu stood awkwardly in the room, her face flushed with embarrassment. She thought Jin Shanyao maiden, and her presence in her messy room made her feel incredibly ashamed.
" Shopkeeper Jin, you're too kind. Anyone would have helped in this situation, especially since Doctor Meng has been so kind to our family. We're more than grateful and can't possibly accept these things."
Jin Shanyao didn't mince words; since the gift had been delivered, she simply accepted it. Her gaze fell on Niu Zhuangzhuang bed).
Niu Zhuangzhuang, curious eyes. Jin Shanyao squeezed his hands and feet, then took his pulse. " Anzhi, bring me the silver needles."
Meng Anzhi opened the medicine box, took out the needle kit and handed it to her. Then she stood aside and watched Jin Shanyao acupuncture. There were a few major acupoints that she dared not needle, but her aunt was quick, accurate and ruthless. In just a few moments, Niu Zhuangzhuang was covered in needles.
Meng Anzhi recorded Niu Zhuangzhuang's reaction and Jin Shanyao's acupuncture technique in the medical record.
A moment later, Jin Shanyao closed the needles and smiled at Sister-in-law Niu, "A few more acupuncture needles and she'll see improvement."
Sister-in-law Niu thought she had misheard and stared blankly at Jin Shanyao, "What did you say, Shopkeeper Jin?"
Jin Shanyao and said, "The child's meridians are damaged, but they will be fine once they are unblocked... Starting tomorrow, take the child to the Anzhi Hall. I will give him acupuncture for half a month, then stop for half a month, and we will see the results before prescribing any appropriate medicine."
Upon hearing that her son could be saved, Sister-in-law Niu knelt down with a thud, "Thank you so much Shopkeeper Jin... I... I..."
She wanted to say something to express her gratitude, but looking around, she found that besides a pile of tattered clothes, there was nothing else in the house that she could bring herself to show off.
With a heavy heart, she choked back tears and said, "If my son gets better, I'm willing to be your slave for the rest of my life."
Jin Shanyao helped her up, "Sister, what are you saying? Didn't I already say that if it weren't for your Dadan in saving Anzhi, my family would be in a terrible state now?"
Remember this: good deeds are rewarded... Heaven has eyes; even if it doesn't punish them in this world, it will in the underworld."
Meng Anzhi frantically tugged at the Jin Shanyao her clothes. The second half of her sentence is unnecessary to say, the second half is unnecessary to say: Oh my dear aunt... didn't you see that Sister-in-law Niu has forgotten to cry?
Sister-in-law Niu stared at Jin Shanyao, stunned and unsure how to speak. Jin Shanyao simply thought she was delirious with joy.
After agreeing on a time to see the doctor with Sister-in-law Niu, Jin Shanyao led Meng Anzhi back. When they passed the alley entrance, she wanted to give Meng Anzhi a chance to ask her if she was human or demon.
Did Fifth Master Dong say anything to you?
Meng Anzhi pointed to her mouth and waved her hand, determined to continue pretending to be mute and not wanting to speak for the time being.
She's a grown woman now; what would happen if she ended up with a hoarse voice? But when her aunt asked about the attack that day, Meng Anzhi felt both wronged and angry.
She waved her hands wildly at the Jin Shanyao, sometimes pointing to the alley entrance, sometimes to her. When she got excited, she even pinched her own neck and rolled her eyes, almost as if she was about to lie on the ground and kick her legs.
This made Jin Shanyao chuckle. "Alright, alright, I know... Anzhi, you've been wronged. When we get back, your aunt will teach you today's acupuncture techniques, and you can give Niu Zhuangzhuang the acupuncture tomorrow."
Upon hearing this, Meng Anzhi's eyes lit up. She had just taken Jin Shanyao's arm when she heard the door open behind her. She turned around instinctively.
The door to the room where the red plaque used to hang was opened, and a man walked out, his trousers askew, just as the door was about to close.
He pulled the person in the room into his arms, "Still angry with me... Don't worry, I can't live without you no matter who else is here..."
The woman glanced around instinctively, her eyes meeting Meng Anzhi's. She hurriedly ducked into the house, saying, " Boss Zheng... don't do that again."
Upon hearing this, Boss Zheng's wicked smile instantly turned into a dark expression. He slapped Lü Pan'er across the face with his backhand, "What's wrong... pull up your pants and pretend to be a respectable girl."
"Everyone on West Street knows you're a prostitute," Boss Zheng sneered. "Do you dare talk to me like that because your blind mother-in-law has stopped taking her medicine, or your two-year-old son has stopped eating?"
"If you dare to act all high and mighty again, don't blame me for not patronizing your business," he said, his hands already busy taking advantage of the situation before he left.
The moment their eyes met, Meng Anzhi quickly pulled Jin Shanyao and turned her back.
Jin Shanyao glanced behind her and saw a man stagger out. She whispered, "Do you know them?"
"The woman's name is Lü Pan'er. Her husband died unexpectedly shortly after her child was born, leaving her with a blind mother-in-law. They started this business because they couldn't make ends meet."
Jin Shanyao glanced at Boss Zheng and scoffed, "There are two kinds of men I despise the most."
Meng Anzhi asked in confusion, "Which two?"
Jin Shanyao narrowed her eyes slightly and said in a sinister tone, "There are two kinds of men: those who hit women and those who can't beat women."
Meng Anzhi...
"Auntie, I think it's wrong for anyone, regardless of gender, to hit someone."
Jin Shanyao in agreement, "Hitting someone is indeed wrong, but this method can quickly calm the other person down and make them listen to what you have to say."
So... Anzhi, strength is the foundation of your words. You need to cultivate your strength so that you can fight whomever you want and shut up whomever you want."
After listening, Meng Anzhi felt that there was some truth to it, but it just sounded a bit strange.
