39: Chapter 39 Accumulating Good Fortune

39 -39 Accumulating Good Fortune

Doctor Cheng was called to Wufu’s home under the pretext that her mother was ill, but when he saw the ‘ill’ Madam Zhou turn into a man, Doctor Cheng’s facial expression faintly changed.

“This…”

The mother and daughter apologized with a smile, “We had no choice, he fainted right in front of our house, we couldn’t just leave him to die.”

Doctor Cheng let out a sigh, and seeing the man half dead, he had to give him medical attention based on his responsibility as a healer.

After some thought, Madam Zhou fetched a bundle from her room and took out a set of male clothing to give to Doctor Cheng, asking him to change the man into it.

Wufu seemed surprised, and while Doctor Cheng attended to the patient, she quietly asked Madam Zhou, “Those clothes…

”

Madam Zhou’s face turned a bit red, and she cautiously looked at Wufu before replying, “They were made for your father.

I had kept them for a few years, thinking he would return soon.”

No wonder there was a set of men’s clothing in the house.

Wufu didn’t say anything but quietly waited.

Madam Zhou was lost in her memories, staring blankly at a spot in the sky, and didn’t speak.

The door to the firewood shed behind her creaked open, Wufu turned around, and Doctor Cheng came out.

“The young man seems to have sustained severe internal injuries, and although the external wounds are better and I have treated them, he caught a chill from being exposed to the cold.

I’ll prescribe some medicine first for him to take for a few days and see how it goes.

As for his internal injuries, they’ll need to be nursed back to health.

To fully heal, one must seek a more skilled physician, I’m afraid my medical skills are not enough.” Doctor Cheng was just an old village doctor, versed only in the traditional medicine passed down from his ancestors – he could treat minor ailments, but anything more advanced was beyond his expertise.

“Doctor Cheng, you mustn’t say that, your medical skills are praised by the entire village,” Madam Zhou said with a smile.

Doctor Cheng shook his head, looking at Madam Zhou with a soft voice, “Ying Mei, your hearts are in the right place.

But it’s just you two women living here, without a man in the house, and now suddenly this man has appeared, it’s really…

You understand what I mean, right? ƒree𝑤ebnσvel.com

It’s not convenient and it’s not good for both of you.”

In his words, there was concern throughout.

This mother and daughter had a tough life, and if the villagers knew there was a man in their house, imagine the gossip that would ensue.

Madam Zhou gave a wry smile, “Doctor Cheng, I understand all that you’ve said, it was also Wufu who insisted we could not just ignore a dying man.”

“Well then, saving a life is to accumulate blessings; consider this as helping Wufu accumulate blessings for herself,” Doctor Cheng nodded and said, “Don’t worry, I’m not one to gossip, I won’t talk about this to anyone, but once the man is well, make sure he leaves quickly!”

Madam Zhou looked grateful and bowed in thanks, “Of course, he will.”

Doctor Cheng lamented, “When your father was alive, his biggest worry was for you two; he always told me to look after you if he were not here.

Alas, I’m just an old village doctor, what can I really do?

It’s just…”

As he mentioned her deceased father, Madam Zhou’s eyes suddenly reddened, and tears quickly fell.

Seeing the mood was not right, Wufu hurriedly said to Doctor Cheng, “Doctor Cheng, we still need to pick up the medicine, right?

Shall I come with you?”

“Oh, yes, yes, we should get going before it gets dark,” Doctor Cheng came back to his senses.

Wufu volunteered to carry the medicine chest for him, just as she had done when he had arrived.

Doctor Cheng looked at her with satisfaction and before leaving, he said to Madam Zhou, “I see that Wufu has become quite sensible.

Don’t worry too much; better days are ahead.”

Madam Zhou nodded again and walked him to the door, instructing Wufu to carefully assist him as they left.

She stood at the doorway for a long time before she finally wiped the tears from her eyes and went back inside.
