Chapter 140: Blacking Out on Their Wedding Night

Zhou Mingyu woke up, and Zhu Leiyao and the others finally breathed a sigh of relief. They carefully helped Zhou Mingyu back home. The village would naturally cover the medical fees; they felt it wrong to take payment from a little girl.

Zhu Yanyi’s miraculous acupuncture skills spread quickly among those present. Hearing that she had easily cured snake venom, everyone became even more convinced that Zhu Yanyi was indeed the Medical Buddha Girl.

When Zhu Shunyao returned from work, he was stunned to learn his daughter had accomplished such a big thing. He was momentarily dazed, but soon his heart swelled with joy. After all, she was his daughter. She was truly amazing.

Zhu Yanyi pulled her father aside, looking as if she wanted to share a secret. "Dad, how is your greenhouse research going?"

Zhu Shunyao replied, "It’s still in progress. Is Ani interested too?"

Zhu Yanyi glanced at her. "If you build the greenhouse well, I can find places to grow herbs. But let’s talk about that later. First, tell you this: the technician I treated today, Mr. Zhou, has studied greenhouses. It’s mostly theory, but I think it’s what you need."

Hearing this, Zhu Shunyao’s eyes lit up. She understood Zhu Yanyi’s meaning. "Ani, you are Dad’s little lucky star. After dinner, I’ll ask Uncle Leiyao for this technician’s contact info and talk to her."

Zhu Yanyi knew her father would understand. She nodded satisfactorily. "Go for it, Dad. I’m waiting for you to build the greenhouse so I can plant medicinal herbs."

"Okay, wait and see. Dad won’t let you down." Zhu Shunyao nodded seriously, full of confidence. If he could gain some theoretical knowledge from this technician, it would surely double his efficiency.

The nineteenth day of the sixth lunar month was the day Guanyin left home to become a nun. It was one of the three Guanyin birthdays. The three dates were: the nineteenth of the second month for Guanyin’s birth, the nineteenth of the sixth month for her leaving home, and the nineteenth of the ninth month for her becoming a Buddha. Thus, there were three Guanyin birthdays, and the Guanyin Temple grew lively with their arrival.

Although it was midsummer, perhaps because Guanyin knew her birthday was coming, the sky turned cloudy that day. The wind was strong too. Walking on the road, it was still hot, but much more comfortable.

As the Medical Buddha Girl, Zhu Yanyi naturally had to attend the Guanyin birthday. Accompanied by Xie Zhong, she arrived at the Guanyin Temple. Sure enough, Master Zhihui was already waiting at the door. Seeing the grandfather and granddaughter, she smiled. "I guessed you would arrive around this time." She then asked Zhu Yanyi, "You will be doing free medical consultations after offering incense, right?"

That was correct. Zhu Yanyi planned that as long as she stayed in Sicheng Town, she would hold free clinics for these three days every year during the Guanyin birthdays. It was simply giving free pulse checks. If possible, she would give some Spirit Spring water. After all, this water was just spiritual river water. Even if someone suspicious got it, they couldn’t analyze anything special from it.

"Yes," Zhu Yanyi nodded. "I rarely encounter serious patients now. Last time, Yan Aohan’s puppet syndrome and the killing array in his body were quite troublesome. Other difficult cases are rare. It’s usually minor issues like snake venom, which is simple for me. I haven’t done basic medical practice yet. Using the free clinic to improve my medical experience is perfect."
