Such a thick penis! It looked like a donkey's!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Auntie, I need to go to the toilet. Sorry, I made you laugh.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhao An smiled, got off the kang (heated brick bed), and went to the toilet—which was really just a chamber pot.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Men could just urinate outside.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"No, it's alright.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Pang Wanjing didn't think much of it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She only glanced away slightly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After all, she was a woman with a granddaughter; she was a grandmother, what was there to be ashamed of?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She was lucky. Although her family was poor, her son married young, so she became a grandmother early, which was normal in the countryside at that age.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the city, she probably wouldn't become a grandmother and hold her grandchildren until she was over sixty.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhao An returned after urinating, his crotch still bulging. \"Auntie, let's call it a day for tonight. Get some rest.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Don't worry, everything will be alright.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Okay, I'm fine.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Pang Wanjing nodded. She actually hoped the village would be developed; that way, she could at least benefit a little and wouldn't be so poor.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Pang Wanjing had just gotten off the earthen bed when she suddenly felt a numbness in her lower back, as if she were about to stumble and fall.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhao An quickly caught her, placing a hand on her arm to take her pulse. \"Auntie, what's wrong?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Don't move, come sit down, let me take a look.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Teacher, can you treat illnesses?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I'm fine, just a little tired.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ouch, that hurts!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Pang Wanjing suddenly clutched her lower back, as if she had twisted it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhao An gently placed Pang Wanjing on the earthen bed, one hand supporting her waist. Her waist was soft, plump, and somewhat loose—typical of an older woman.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, it felt quite nice.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Such a peasant woman should be very healthy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Don't be nervous, let me take a look.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Pang Wanjing inexplicably grasped Zhao An's hand; she seemed to have a bad premonition.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"T-Teacher, am I alright?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhao An closed his eyes and took her pulse. After more than a minute, he opened his eyes. \"Auntie, to be honest, didn't you have proper postpartum care?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Pang Wanjing nodded in surprise. \"Yes, my family was very poor before. I had to help with chores even while I was still in postpartum care.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You touched cold water, didn't you?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A smile played on Zhao An's lips, as if he knew everything.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Of course.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Because he could access Pang Wanjing's memories at any time, he naturally knew what had happened.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Pang Wanjing was even more surprised. Grabbing Zhao An's arm, her voice was tinged with excitement, \"Yes, Teacher, how did you know? You're amazing!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhao An smiled slightly and shook his head. \"I'm not amazing; your body told me.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>You're very weak now and need to nourish yourself properly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>You almost twisted your back just now.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Although you didn't twist it, you can't do heavy work, right?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Pang Wanjing naturally knew what a back strain meant; it was still a little sore. She swallowed hard and looked at Zhao An pleadingly:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Teacher, we can't stop working. The crops in the fields need to be checked, and the chickens and ducks need to be fed. We can't stop! Can you help me?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Although she was embarrassed to ask for a favor, what other options did she have?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhao An glanced at Pang Wanjing, nodded, then shook his head. \"I can help you, but it's probably not appropriate.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What...what's inappropriate about it?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Pang Wanjing was puzzled. How could a simple, honest rural woman like her be a match for an old fox like Zhao An?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Although Zhao An was still young, he was already the father of dozens of children!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He had slept with far too many women to count.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And the number was still increasing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If the women hadn't all become pregnant and he hadn't run out of vaginas to sleep with, he wouldn't have ventured out into the world.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Actually, it was also to lay low. He hid in a poor mountain village, so if the four major families ran into trouble, it wouldn't concern him at all.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhao An took out a box of silver needles…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He demonstrated them to Pang Wanjing, \"I actually studied traditional Chinese medicine, so I can work part-time as a doctor here.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I can treat the villagers, but let's focus on education first.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This acupuncture technique of mine is a family heirloom, passed down only to sons, for many generations.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This was passed down from my ancestor who was a royal physician; it's a secret formula, not to be shared.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This boast made Pang Wanjing feel that he was unfathomable. She didn't know if it was true or not, but seeing Zhao An's serious expression, she didn't have any doubts.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Then, teacher, is there any inconvenience?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Yes, of course there is. Acupuncture can relieve your pain, but you'll still need to replenish it afterwards.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Also, your body is too weak; you'll need some medicinal herbs to slowly regulate it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This might be a burden for you, but you see, don't you often feel tired? This is your body telling you that illness is approaching.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Actually, my family's acupuncture method requires a special condition, which might be a little difficult for you to accept.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhao An smiled slightly, his smile still very kind.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Gulp,\" Pang Wanjing seemed to have a premonition. She was completely unprepared and didn't believe Zhao An would harm her. \"Teacher, just tell me directly, tell me, what exactly do I need to do?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I need you to take off all your clothes before I can perform acupuncture treatment.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhao An uttered words that left Pang Wanjing speechless. Sensing her confusion, he explained, \"Your condition is very serious. It's not just a back problem; it's that your blood circulation is poor throughout your body, and many of your joints are closed. So, I need you to take off your clothes. Don't worry, it's perfectly normal.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Of course, if you can't accept that, just pretend I didn't say anything.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhao An still smiled gently. He was using a strategy of feigned indifference, first exaggerating the severity of the problem, and then offering a solution.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And if someone is flustered and at a loss, they are in danger of falling into his trap!\u003C\u002Fp>",1071,"2026-06-08T09:55:01.067Z",1,"novelbin.me","4b41212702e82c38de990f555791336c1a8b7c101a5be2a7eadd2f0e6ca75182","rebirth-encyclopedia-system-chapter-1250","rebirth-encyclopedia-system-chapter-1248",1390,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Frebirth-encyclopedia-system-cover.jpg"]
