228 Knowledgeable About Medicine

Liu Yinyin spoke sobbingly. Her voice trembled, even though she tried her best to control her emotions. She was also teary-eyed, not from the rain but from crying.

Su Wenzhe was stunned as he had never seen his wife like that, so his heart clenched. “What’s wrong, Yinyin?!”

Su Wenzhe did not answer Liu Yinyin’s question first, so she quickly let go of his sleeve and anxiously entered the house. She only felt at ease when she saw Su Binglan.

Liu Yinyin looked utterly anxious at this moment as everyone stood in the house and watched the commotion.

“Did something happen, Yinyin?!”

“You’re still in the rain. Quick, come in.”

Su Binglan also looked at Liu Yinyin. She had a hunch something was wrong.

Liu Yinyin immediately ran toward Su Binglan and grabbed her sleeves. She started crying as soon as she spoke, almost kneeling, “Binglan, please save my big brother! I beg you!”

Su Binglan hurriedly pulled her sister-in-law to stop her from kneeling. “Please don’t do that, Sister-in-law. We’re family.”

Shen Qiuhua’s heart started racing as she hurriedly added, “Tell us what happened to your big brother, Yinyin.”

Liu Yinyin only had one big brother, and the two were close. If anything happened to him, Liu Yinyin and her parents would not be able to bear the pain.

Su Wenzhe came to his senses and entered the house from the courtyard. He also looked at Liu Yinyin anxiously. Seeing her like that made him feel terrible.

Liu Yinyin choked and tried controlling her emotions. Then she said, “My big brother went to the mountain in the afternoon to hunt chickens and rabbits for Xuexuan and Xuehai to eat, but a poisonous snake bit him. Big Brother is in terrible condition now!”

Su Fengmao and Shen Qiuhua’s faces turned pale when they heard this. Getting bitten by a poisonous snake usually meant death, which was horrifying.

Su Wenzhe and Su Wenxiu’s faces also turned pale. The village elders said one must always beware of poisonous snakes, especially the ones on the mountain. One would be okay if one did not accidentally step on these snakes.

No one knew how a poisonous snake bit Liu Chengwen. However, the woods at the back of the mountain were dense, and it was normal for one to step and get bitten by a poisonous snake accidentally.

“Binglan, can you save Chengwen?!” Liu Yinyin looked at her sister-in-law as if she looked at a guardian angel.

The villagers of Willow Village even called a doctor over, but no one could do anything for Liu Chengwen.

Many years ago, a poisonous snake bit and killed someone else from the Liu family. Liu Yinyin’s parents’ and sister-in-law’s expressions were dim as they cried.

Liu Yinyin wondered what would happen to her family if Liu Chengwen died, especially since he was her family’s pillar. While Liu Yinyin cried, she suddenly thought of Su Binglan.

The Su family knew to look to Su Binglan whenever they encountered any problems. They thought nothing terrible would happen with her around. Moreover, she was skilled in medicine.

Su Binglan had cured her third uncle’s throat and nose, even though doctors could not treat him. Therefore, Liu Yinyin instantly thought her sister-in-law would have a solution to her problems.

At that time, Liu Yinyin could not care about anything else and hurriedly went to the Su family’s home to look for Su Binglan. As long as there was a glimmer of hope, Liu Yinyin would not give up.

Still, she was worried along the way. It was raining heavily, and the road was tricky to walk on. Fortunately, she brought the oxcart with her. Thus, she returned to look for Su Binglan on the oxcart while it rained.

Su Binglan hurriedly said, “Wenxiu, take my small medical box and follow me to Willow Village.”

“Yes, Binglan!” Su Wenxiu quickly came to his senses and took the small medical box.

Previously when Su Binglan brought Su Wenxiu back from the capital, she started doing consultations in the local area to earn money and heal her brother’s body.

At that time, Su Binglan prepared a small medical box. Since Su Wenxiu was passionate about medicine, Su Binglan told him to learn from her after recuperating. Thus, Su Wenxiu carried the small medical box on his back and followed his sister.

Su Binglan’s expression was cold, and she did things quickly. There were two straw raincoats at home, so Su Binglan and her second brother quickly put them on and prepared to ride their horses to Willow Village.

“Y-You two are riding horses?” Liu Yinyin was stunned. She looked at her sister-in-law’s figure, and her heart strangely calmed down. She was not as flustered as before.

Su Binglan said, “It’s quicker if we take the horses. Mount the horse, Sister-in-law. I’ll bring you there.”

However, Liu Yinyin did not even know how to mount a horse. Still, she saw Su Binglan reaching her hand out, so she grabbed it as Su Binglan pulled her onto the horse.

Su Binglan looked at her family and said, “You guys rest while I go check out the situation.”

Su Wenzhe responded, “I want to go too. Take me with you, Binglan!” He was also anxious since Liu Chengwen was his brother-in-law.

Su Binglan said to Su Wenxiu, “Bring Big Brother with you, Wenxiu.”

“Okay.”

Immediately after, the quartet braved the rain and headed toward Willow Village. Although the rain had caused the roads to be slippery, it was better to ride horses than to walk.

Su Binglan rode ahead while Su Wenxiu followed behind. Su Wenxiu started learning to ride a horse when he returned from the capital. At that time, his sister told him to ride his horse and follow behind her.

Su Wenxiu learned to ride a horse to keep up with his sister. Of course, he could not have done it without his sister’s guidance. Soon, the quartet arrived at Willow Village as the rain got heavier.

Liu Yinyin’s parents left their door open. She saw many people standing inside when she entered. Everyone was there to help as some stood at the stove.

Li Zheng saw Liu Yinyin bringing a few people back with her. He said, “Yinyin, go in and check on your brother. He…”

Li Zheng could not finish his sentence, but Liu Yinyin knew his meaning as her legs went soft. Only when Su Wenzhe supported her could she stand firm.

Liu Yinyin’s parents and sister-in-law were watching over Liu Chengwen. Feng Sisi wiped her tears, saying, “Should we call Liu Heng home?”

Mr. and Mrs. Liu wiped their tears in silence.

Liu Yinyin could feel the heavy atmosphere when she entered the room. Her voice was firm as she said, “Father, Mother, my sister-in-law is here. She’s knowledgeable in medicine, so Big Brother will be okay.”

The few villagers standing at the stove were stunned when they saw such a beautiful girl entering the house.

‘Is she Yinyin’s sister-in-law?’

‘She looks so young. Is she honestly knowledgeable in medicine?’
