Chapter 430
Han Qingsong said, “There is a doctor named Doctor Xu in their brigade.”
The Xu family had practised the art of medicine for generations and it was even said that their ancestor was an imperial physician who was very good at gynaecology.
The old Chinese doctor had suffered a lot a few years ago and ended up with one of his legs limping and numb. Even though he had a mop of white hair and beard, his eyes were full of spirit despite his skinny figure.
Lin Lan had always been in awe of traditional culture, so since they were already here, she listened carefully to the doctor’s precautions and paid for the prescription.
There were no medicinal materials available here, but neither the Commune nor the county town had them either. They needed to go into the big city to get it.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtBecause when the Four Traditions were broken, the local Chinese medicine practitioners were also impacted badly by it. Some of the ignorant public had assumed that their line of work was clumped together with witchcraft and fortune-telling, which caused all those activities to be banned.
As of now, the restrictions weren’t as tight and commune doctors were also being trained in the countryside, so they could practise the art seriously again.
Han Qingsong, too, had to do a lot of research before he finally managed to find it.
Lin Lan thought that Liu Xiuyun’s body needed extra help healing as well, so she asked the doctor about it as well. Doctor Xu explained that it would be better for the patient herself to make a visit in order for him to make an accurate prescription.
Lin Lan wanted to ask Liu Xiuyun to come and get a check-up as well.
She didn’t know what was the logic behind it, but despite it taking forever to get there, the trip back to the village was rather speedy. In fact, they managed to get home at around 3.30p.m.
Han Qingsong still had to go to the Commune, so Lin Lan got off at the entrance of the village and went home first.
As soon as she entered the village, she heard the cries of a child and the scoldings of women. Whose family was this, hitting children all the way to the streets?
Just as she opened her door, someone approached her, “Lin Lan, I can’t believe you’re part of the publicity team when you can’t even teach your children right!”
She saw Liu Chunfang walking towards her with an angry face whilst dragging along an adolescent boy.
Would you look at that, even a little white flower also had the side of a hag.
Lin Lan, “Enlighten me, which wind managed to blow you all the way here?”

She pushed her son forward, “Take a good look.”
Lin Lan’s face sank, “Are you sick? I just came home, when did I ever beat your son?”
Liu Chunfang began to wipe away her tears, “You didn’t, but you asked your Dawang to hit him. Why is your Dawang so bad? Trying to kill others at such a young age…”
“Shut up!” Lin Lan yelled angrily. It was fine if the woman went crazy, but Lin Lan wished that she could keep her insanity to herself and not try to frame others.
Liu Chunfang was taken aback by her exclamation as she began to hiccup.
By this time, someone who followed the women and watched the scene play out shouted, “Dawang fought with Tietou. Good man, that Tietou is 2 years older than him and yet, Dawang managed to beat him into a pulp.”
