Warning
Ding Yao was speechless. In order to prevent Song Xiuyan from finding out, she had tried her best to make her handwriting uglier. However, she didn’t expect Song Xiuyan to still sense that something was wrong, so she could only make up a lie. “When my grandfather was still alive, he taught me how to write. Unfortunately, I didn’t cherish the opportunity. I always thought that there would be more time in the future, so it was okay if I wanted to slack off and learn slowly.”
Upon hearing that, Song Xiuyan immediately said, “That’s because you were young and playful. In addition, you didn’t have a strict teacher to discipline you. In the future, you have to be more self-aware. I might be more strict than your grandfather when I teach you.”
Ding Ya was a little regretful about her explanation! She could foresee how miserable her life would be in the future!
After breakfast, Song Xiuyan told Song Yang not to go out and to look after his younger siblings at home. He wanted to go with Ding Yao to the mountain to dig for medicinal herbs to cure roundworms.
When Song Yu heard this, he also wanted to go with Song Xiuyan and Ding Yao. He had just given Song Yi a massage and had even received Song Yi’s praise. Song Yu was extremely excited. When he thought about how Song Yi’s left leg would be healed in the future, and he would also have a part to play in it, he was in a good mood. It turned out that being a doctor and saving people had such a great sense of achievement. This gave Song Yu a bold idea. He wanted to be Ding Yao’s disciple. He knew that the first step in curing people was to recognize medicinal herbs. Therefore, he wanted to follow her up the mountain to see if he had any talent.
Ding Yao promised Song Yu. She had noticed Song Yu’s dedication to medicine a long time ago and guessed what Song Yu was thinking. If Song Yu was really interested in medicine and had talent, then it would be good for her to take in a disciple.
They didn’t need to climb too far up the mountain for the medicinal herbs needed to cure roundworms. They were on the nearby mountain. Yesterday, Ding Yao asked Song Xiuyan to ask the staff of the pharmacy. He knew that the doctors here used poisonous medicinal herbs to directly poison roundworms to death. This kind of treatment method was still bearable for adults, but it wasn’t suitable for children. Children were weak, and it was easy to treat them if they weren’t careful.
Ding Yao used the method from her world. There were medicinal herbs that could paralyze the roundworm. After the roundworm was drugged, it would be excreted through the feces. This method couldn’t only effectively remove the roundworm in the body, it could also reduce the damage to the human body to the minimum. Ding Yao estimated that she would need three kinds of medicinal herbs. They could see them everywhere on the mountain nearby. They dug up a lot because Ding Yao said to store them first. They would eventually use them in the future.
Ding Yao had observed that most of the children in Song family village had roundworm disease. This was what was said earlier. Children didn’t pay attention to hygiene when eating and didn’t like to wash their hands. As a result, the roundworm spread from one person to another.
Song Yu had been very excited during the process of picking herbs. He had memorized the appearance, characteristics, and growing environment of each herb. He even begged Ding Yao to write down the effects and taboos of each herb to him. Ding Yao agreed on the surface, but she felt bitter in her heart because she knew that if she agreed, it meant that she would have to copy a lot of rare words at night.
Song Xiuyan said that the test would start tonight, but it wasn’t very difficult for Ding Yao. The characters in this world had some similarities with the characters in her previous world, so it was easier to get familiar with them than imagined. fr(e)ewebnovel.com
At noon, the three returned with a full load. There were villagers on both sides of the village road enjoying the shade. When they saw them, they pointed at them and whispered to each other. Song Xiuyan stopped in his tracks. He said to the people on both sides of the road, “I have Something to tell you. Ding Yao was brought home voluntarily by me. She’s my wife and my family. So I don’t want to hear you say that she’s not good, that she’s a jinx, and so on and so forth. Whether Ding Yao is good or bad, it doesn’t affect you. I don’t understand why you would vilify a little girl so viciously. What benefits can you get from it? If I hear you say something bad about Ding Yao again, don’t blame me for being rude!”After saying that, Song Xiuyan continued to walk.
The villagers looked at each other and were too embarrassed to refute. Some of them even felt that their actions were indeed wrong and lowered their heads in shame. Song Xiuyan’s words made sense. No matter how evil Ding Yao was, Song Xiuyan and the others didn’t mind her, so why should they meddle in other people’s business? Moreover... Ding Yao was a pitiful girl. If Song Xiuyan chased her away because of their words, it would be a huge sin.
Most importantly, the village chief of the Song family village valued Song Xiuyan very much. If Song Xiuyan went to the village chief and complained, they wouldn’t be able to get anything.
