Chapter 1652

~8 min read 1,414 words

For city children, the river beach pasture didn't require them to do anything to conquer them.

They hadn't even had time to go into the pasture to take a look; just this dense lotus pond, the sweet flag that smelled faintly fragrant when pulled out, the green and lush reeds that hadn't grown up yet, and Da Bai, who was majestic and led the group of ducks...

And Guo Yi, the Chinese merganser, who was added to the duck group with its ink-wash national style patterned coat.

Good heavens!

Everyone was stroking big dogs and small dogs with one hand, taking videos and photos with their phones with the other, while the children were stomping and feeling around in the mud at the edge of the lotus pond, occasionally shouting and cheering, digging out a few river snails.

Qiao Qiao took them with a small basket, and before they knew it, they had actually gathered half a basket.

Qin Beibei stared at it and asked curiously: "Brother Qiao Qiao, can this be used to make river snail rice noodles?"

Qiao Qiao looked at the basket: "There don't seem to be river snails in river snail rice noodles..."

He shook his head: "No, these are too big; it doesn't taste good to make river snail rice noodles with them; later we'll smash them to feed Da Bai and the ducks."

They loved eating this.

That majestic big goose seemed even prettier than the white swans in the park! Eating river snails was only right!

The children became even more energetic, stomping through the smelly mud into the water again.

"Will they get athlete's foot?"

"Won't they get infected if they get scratched?" The children's parents were a bit worried.

On the contrary, the grandparents who had always doted on their grandchildren were very relaxed: "If this causes athlete's foot, then what about the countryside where people stomp in water fields to plant rice every year? With a strong body, these problems aren't easy to get."

Besides, stomping in mud wasn't stomping in a dung heap.

Wu Lan, hearing this, understood the meticulousness of people raising children delicately nowadays, so she quickly said:

"It's fine, tonight when we go back, let's go to Doctor Xiao Guo's place to recognize the way, and bring back a few medicine packets while we're at it."

"After taking a bath at night, soak in a big basin. It drives away cold air and also boosts yang energy..."

In today's terms, it meant enhancing immunity, sterilizing, and disinfecting; the main ingredient was mugwort, which wasn't unpleasant to smell and didn't hurt the skin.

If that was the case—the adults were also itching to try it.

If nothing else, they had bathtubs in their suites, and disposable bathtub covers too...

Wu Lan saw everyone crowding around to ask in detail, and her passion surged: "We have them, we have them! I'll arrange it all!"

Doctor Xiao Guo didn't expect such a big business late at night.

Although the money wasn't much, or even no money, there were many people!

Just looking at it made her feel like her medical skills were superior.

Actually, she knew in her heart that although the empirical formula had been adjusted by several teachers, the ones that truly produced results had to be the medicinal herbs from the old Song family.

At this moment, she smiled and said: "Didn't the adults not play in the water much? Then don't worry about buying medicine packets first. I'll give three packets to each child as a gift first."

"Soak for three days, induce sweating, astringe, and calm the spirit; let's see how their sleep and energy are before deciding."

The words made sense, and the doctor had good medical ethics.

But the problem was—

"These medicine packets are 80 yuan each!"

Giving them to three children was already a thousand or eight hundred yuan.

If calculated by the price of online shopping, this was definitely expensive; after all, other foot-soaking packets or bath packets could be bought for twenty or thirty yuan for a big bag, with ten or twenty packets of herbs inside.

But then again, what medicinal herb prices were that cheap these days?

Since they were already here, and the mugwort paste had such a good effect, who knew how the mugwort medicine packets would be!

Since that was the case, everyone discussed it in a hubbub and soon made a decision: "Let's each get one packet first."

Children didn't understand sleep or spirit; it had to be the adults experiencing it to know.

Health preservation, who wasn't interested in that these days?

Qin Yun's father also asked: "Can this be used for cupping? I want to get cupping done in the summer."

Doctor Xiao Guo laughed: "Let's set a time in the next two days, everyone come together, let me take your pulses and take a good look first. Cupping where cupping is needed, acupuncture where acupuncture is needed, and medicine where medicine is needed."

"As long as you are willing to follow medical advice and stay here for half a month, I guarantee your body can be adjusted to be smooth and healthy."

Even if some old ailments couldn't be cured at the root, they could be greatly improved.

It was just that because of this...

Doctor Xiao Guo flipped through her appointment schedule:

"I have an interview the day after tomorrow morning, and I've pushed back the patients; if you don't mind having someone there as an intern watching, how about the day after tomorrow morning?"

That would be too great!

To be honest, Master Chai and his apprentice also needed it!

Everyone felt they had gained a lot, and on the way back, they were still chatting:

"Farming, seeing a TCM doctor, fortune-telling; we've already occupied two in this village; if there could be a fortune-teller who is accurate, that would be interesting."

Wu Lan said mysteriously: "There is one; there's a blind old woman in our town, and everyone says her fortune-telling is very accurate. I heard she had a serious illness at fifty, and when she woke up, she could see things!"

"But she's illiterate! She only knows how to sing! Just listen and remember it in your heart."

Really?!

The women instantly became interested and subconsciously gathered around. Wu Lan became even more passionate: "But!"

"I don't think it's reliable!"

"The old woman used to be sharp-tongued and mean, tormenting her own daughter-in-law, and the daughter-in-law fought with her, which is why she returned to town."

"If she really had such a good ability, then I'm not a bad person, so why didn't Heaven teach me?"

"I'm thinking it can't be trusted."

He Kuang's mother, however, was thoughtful: "Maybe she isn't the same person she was before; Heaven made her suddenly enlightened just to accumulate merit..."

Everyone discussed it in a hubbub, and the topic had changed from 【Really?】 to I know someone, I heard about someone...

Lu Chuan listened with a smile and took out his phone: "A while ago, the Yuncheng Public Security Bureau's official account published an article about an old woman who disguised herself as blind and pretended to tell fortunes..."

"I heard that at first, she used fortune-telling software for eight-character charts."

"In the last two years, she developed it and even combined it with AI..."

As for why she was reported and discovered?

It was because the AI was talking nonsense with a straight face; nine times out of ten it sounded plausible, but one time it could mess everything up...

The person who was messed up thought about it later: Hey, my zodiac sign isn't this, so how could she even get this wrong?

So they became suspicious.

And for this kind of thing, once there was suspicion, everything looked like a flaw; the person was angry later and reported her first.

Lu Chuan opened the column of the official account, and everyone swarmed over, reading it word for word, occasionally clicking their tongues in evaluation...

In short!

"Most of these are fake; if you really want to calculate, I can also help you use AI; it's quite interesting many times..."

Song Tan touched her nose: It wasn't all fake; she knew a little bit.

And it was quite accurate, not doing anything fake.

It was just this, this, the questions that could be asked...

She wisely didn't say a word.

?? Coming, coming!

? DP fortune-telling says I'm a snake, it's simply nonsense!
