Chapter 105: Future Mother-in-law (I)
Lao Wang went back to the village to make lunch, and Jin Cheng closed the door of the clinic, and there would be no patients during this time, unless it was an emergency. The villagers all know that Jin Cheng has the habit of going up the mountain to collect medicine, and no one will come to him in the afternoon to see a doctor.
Jin Cheng opened the back door and walked to the back mountain with Lan Xiaoling's mother and daughter. When he arrived at the grove, Jin Cheng put the basin and towel in his hand on a large bluestone, and Jin Cheng placed two long strips of large bluestone in this grove, the surface of the bluehead was very smooth, and it felt like a mirror to the touch.
I found a rag hanging on the branch and wiped the big bluestone, in fact, it was very clean, Jin Cheng would come here to sit almost every morning, wipe it just for the heart, and then invite the mother and daughter to take a seat.
Below the big bluestone is a half-hollowed out mound, and people sit on the bluestone, and their legs hang down naturally, just like sitting on a stone chair in the park, which is very natural.
"This is my private domain, how about it? Not bad, right? Jin Cheng turned around in place and said to Lan Xiaoling.
Lan Xiaoling looked at the swings, sandbags, and hammocks hanging in the grove, and suddenly became interested, "Hey, it's fun, I want to swing." After saying that, she ignored her mother's objections, threw down her hat and left.
"This girl doesn't pay attention to her image at all." Ai Manping couldn't stop it, so she could only smile at Jin Cheng helplessly.
"Auntie, it's okay, Xiaoling is very good, very free and easy, acting in her true colors, I especially appreciate her courage to take off her wig in front of the public, and face her flaws calmly, it's really amazing." Jin Cheng came to Ai Manping's side and sat down, looking at Lan Xiaoling's back with tender eyes.
"Do you like Xiaoling?" Ai Manping stared at Jin Cheng's eyes and asked.
Jin Cheng was a little flustered about this sudden question, but he quickly calmed down, did not avoid Ai Manping's eyes, and said frankly: "I like it, I decided to see her at first sight, I never believed in love at first sight, I thought it was all the plot of the novel, but now that it happened to me, I really believe it." ”
Jin Cheng's eyes were very clear, clearer than the stream flowing through the mountain stream, Ai Manping stared at him for a long time, and finally could only believe that he was not lying, she continued: "Xiaoling, this child looks strong, maverick, and has a strong heart, but as a woman, she still longs to be cared for, can you protect her from harm?" ”
"I can, if she wants, I will protect her with my life." Jin Cheng's tone was resolute, and his eyes revealed indomitable perseverance.
"Okay, remember what you said today, I don't object to your relationship, but Xiaoling is still studying, you are still young, I hope you put your career first......" Then Ai Manping asked Jin Cheng about the situation at home, Jin Cheng truthfully said that the current parents are adoptive parents, and the whereabouts of the biological parents are unknown, and briefly said what happened back then.
Ai Manping frowned slightly after hearing this, she didn't mind that Jin Cheng's parents were from the countryside, she took a fancy to Jin Cheng's own potential, it didn't matter if he was born or poor, but his biological parents were an uncertain factor, and it seemed that Jin Cheng's mother's family was very powerful, which made her feel a little uneasy.
The daughter and Jin Cheng are just new acquaintances, and it is not certain whether they can succeed, they really think too much, even if Jin Cheng becomes the grandson of the Mu family, is his daughter not worthy of him? After figuring out this link, Ai Manping was immediately relieved.
Jin Cheng scooped a basin of water from the creek, brought it to the big bluestone, and then called Lan Xiaoling to come over and wash his hair.
After opening the plastic wrap, the black ointment on the top of Lan Xiaoling's head emitted a smell of sweat, which was really not good, Ai Manping hurriedly pressed her daughter into the water, washed it first, then changed a basin of water, and then washed it again.
"It's finally refreshing, it's really a crime, Jin Cheng, your method is too earthy, can't you think of a treatment plan that keeps pace with the times?" Lan Xiaoling said as he wiped the water on his head with a towel.
"Traditional Chinese medicine is a traditional thing, which requires the words and deeds of the master, the diligence and hard work of the students, and in the process of learning, many places can only understand the unspeakable, and the requirements for the apprentice's understanding are relatively high. For example, the Chinese people use modern science to study traditional Chinese medicine, and the Chinese people use a microscope to observe the meridians of the human body, which is nonsense, they can never understand the five elements of yin and yang, dialectical treatment and other traditional Chinese medicine theories, no matter how developed science and technology are, their research can only stay on the surface. So, you can only endure it, you know, the current treatment method has been improved by me, in the past, the ointment was applied to the head, and after a week, it was removed. Jin Cheng felt it, and the words were true.
"I didn't wash my hair for a week, and I didn't do it if I was killed, forget it, I reluctantly accepted this treatment. What should I do tomorrow, or you can bring me the ointment back, I should be able to wipe it at home! Lan Xiaoling said.
"Okay, I'll find a small bottle of some ointment for you to bring back when I go back next time, apply it once a day, just like today, and wash it after two hours, it's best to start around eight o'clock in the morning every day, so that the interval between each medication is about the same, which is helpful for the efficacy." Jin Cheng said.
Lan Xiaoling was overjoyed, the road to Gangtou Village is too difficult to walk, and there is no bus, it is extremely inconvenient to come and go, you can take the ointment home, you don't have to run around every day, that is the best.
"Jin Cheng, I wrote down what you said, I'll go back and urge this girl. I heard Xiaoling say that this ointment has been used for a hundred years in He Shou Wu, so I have to get a lot of money! Ai Manping knew that it was impossible for Jin Cheng to collect money, but she still had to take the initiative to mention it, after all, her daughter and he were just ordinary friends, and they were not close enough not to talk about money.
"Auntie, don't talk about money, the mountain behind me is a huge treasure, inexhaustible for a lifetime, no matter how valuable the medicinal herbs, I can find them as long as I spend a little time. That's one of the reasons why I'm here to stay, and I'm going to dig out the wealth that lies here, and it will be of great use in the future. Jin Cheng glanced back at the vast mountains and said.
"Isn't it dangerous in the mountains? Are there any wild beasts? Lan Xiaoling asked curiously and a little worriedly.
"Of course there is, but I often wander around the mountains, I am not afraid of these wild beasts, the meat in the village canteen is all hunted by me, I have a lot of game here, do you want to bring some wild boar and roe deer meat back to taste?" Jin Cheng said lightly, trying to downplay the danger as much as possible, so as not to worry blindly.
Lan Xiaoling didn't know his identity as a martial artist, Jin Cheng wasn't going to sue her for the time being, at least until the Mu family's affairs were resolved, the fewer people who knew this secret, the better. It's not that Jin Cheng doesn't believe her, if she knows that Jin Cheng and the Mu family are mortal enemies, it can only increase her distress, it is better not to know anything.
