Farm Girl's Manor

During this period, treating patients from several villages, though Mo Yan was exhausted, the rewards were substantial. In addition to becoming increasingly precise in prescribing medicines, she also accumulated a great deal of merit, which delighted Xuetuan so much that it became diligent all of a sudden, ceaselessly harvesting and storing grain in the space. The vast granary that it had carved out was stuffed full to the brim.

On this day, the sky cleared completely, and the long-absent sun finally broke through the layers of clouds, hanging high in the sky. The brilliant sunshine was even more dazzling than in summer, shining on the vast expanse of snow and reflecting blinding light.

However, the gloom that hung over people’s hearts had not dissipated, simply because the rising temperatures melted the snow, causing floods in many places. Many adobe houses, which hadn’t been crushed by the snow, had their foundations soaked and weakened by floodwaters, leading to collapses. Fortunately, there were no crops in the fields this season; otherwise, the losses would have been even more severe.

Liu Yang Village was situated on higher ground, and with the Xiaoqing River diverting some of the floodwater, the impact was minimal. The Mo Family’s land was even higher, and when their house was built, the underground drainage system was constructed well, so the surging snow water from the mountains did not affect them at all.

Outside the house, snowmelt trickled down the eaves, weaving into the sound of a ticking symphony. Mo Yan sat in the clinic, earnestly taking the pulse of the middle-aged man sitting opposite her.

"Little Divine Doctor, how much longer until I can remove the cloth from my head?" Seeing Mo Yan withdraw her hand, the middle-aged man pointed to the cotton strip wrapped around the back of his head and asked cautiously.

Mo Yan didn’t answer directly but asked the middle-aged man a few more questions. After getting precise answers, she said, "Your body is no longer in serious condition, and the cloth can be removed at any time. However, the current damp and cold weather is rather severe, and your wound has not completely healed. You could easily invite evil winds, so you should keep it wrapped after changing the medicine every day. Remove it only after seven more days."

"Yes, yes, thank you, Little Divine Doctor, thank you," the middle-aged man said, overjoyed to hear that his body was fine. He took out twenty wen money for the consultation and medicine fees from his pocket and placed them on the table while thanking Mo Yan.
