Chapter 67 -67 The Old Man Can Treat Illnesses (2)_1

Don’t mention how tired Lao Fan was, Lin Yuan was also exhausted from the chase, but only upon hearing Lao Fan’s words did she suddenly snap back to reality.

She had been too focused on how unpleasant the old man’s words were and hadn’t fully considered that he had accurately diagnosed Lady Liu’s illness with just a glance.

The old man was right; her mother fell ill because she wanted to give her father a son, so she followed others’ advice and consumed all sorts of remedies to conceive a child.

Although she eventually had a son, he died young due to congenital deficiencies.

Could it be that this old man was not just a foodie but actually possessed some real skills?

Lin Yuan was uncertain and still asked with irritation, “Do you think I’ll believe you just because you’re spouting nonsense?

Maybe you just heard some gossip from the villagers?

Who in the village doesn’t know that my mother took numerous folk remedies to have a son?”

Just as it seemed Lin Yuan was beginning to waver, Lao Fan got frustrated that she still didn’t believe him and stopped paying any attention to her, annoyed that his breath was stuck in his throat.

Liuzi hurriedly offered a smile to ease the tension, stepping down the metaphorical staircase: “Miss Lin, you’re really wronging our boss here.

Although our boss no longer practices medicine, I’ve heard the shopkeeper say that he’s quite skilled at treating illnesses; even Master Magistrate has sought his help.

If you don’t believe it, why not let our boss take your pulse?

Just give it a try before you draw your conclusions.”

Before Lin Yuan could respond, Lao Fan snorted first, lifting his chin high with his salt-and-pepper beard pointing up: “It’s better if she doesn’t believe me; I’m too lazy to look anyway!”

Great, the boss is in a foul mood now; it seems like we’re in for a tough day again.

Liuzi bit his lip, his face filled with sorrow.

Xiao Linshuang, on the other hand, was brimming with excitement, hugging Lao Fan’s legs even tighter as if she was afraid he would run away: “Grandpa, you…

you’re a doctor?

Can you treat my mother?

That would be so great!

You must cure her; I want her to have a baby brother for me!”

Lao Fan was truly shocked by the speed of Xiao Linshuang’s change of attitude—from a ferocious little she-wolf baring her teeth to suddenly becoming a docile Little White Rabbit.

Looking at those white teeth, Lao Fan felt a chill—his legs were still in her embrace.

If he shook his head now, would she bite him again?

“Alright, alright, I’ll look!

I’ll look at her!

Despite being malnourished, biting me still hurts so much!”

If he could tell that even the little sister was malnourished, he must have some skills, Lin Yuan pondered.

But seeing his reluctant and petulant demeanor, she crossed her arms in front of her chest and started to entice him with a reward: “You can forget about that bowl of fish soup, but if you do a good job, I’ll prepare an even better meal for you at lunch.”

“Deal!

I’ll examine her right now!” With the promise of delicious food right in front of him, the old man proceeded to diagnose with great eagerness.

Liuzi looked at Lin Yuan with a mix of respect and fear, thinking to himself how easily she had taken control of their boss—perhaps in the future, Fuman Building might even have to change its name to the Lin family’s.

Lao Fan was not all talk; after merely taking Lady Liu’s pulse and checking her tongue coating, he confirmed her illness.

Indeed, she had damaged her health by consuming too many wild medicines.

As they say, every medicine carries a risk of toxicity, even tonic medicines should not be consumed daily, let alone the unscientific folk remedies she had been taking.

Fortunately, Lady Liu had not taken any medicines for the last three years, and the effects of the medicine had mostly been expelled from her body.

As long as she nourished herself properly from now on, she could be as healthy as anyone else within half a year.

Of course, Lao Fan also emphasized that Lady Liu had damaged her health because of the medicines, so she couldn’t rely on medicines for nourishment anymore; she would need to nourish herself with food instead.

This was not a big problem for Lin Yuan, who had a knack for making medicinal meals.

The challenge was sourcing the ingredients, after all, she didn’t have the money to buy them.

Earning money was now of the utmost urgency.

Having seen Lady Liu’s illness, Lin Yuan felt a little more at ease, but the greatest challenge was likely with Lin Jiaxin in the eastern room.

His leg, could it be cured?
