Chapter 31: A Big Boil

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

Uncle Wang did not forget that Lin Ran almost got drowned when she treated Lin Ming last time. He did not want anything to happen to Lin Ran because of him.

“It’s fine. I’m upright and have done nothing wrong, so I’m not afraid of what others will say.” Lin Ran waved her hand indifferently. If someone really criticized her and the people in the clan could not tolerate her, they could always expel her from the clan. Anyway, she had a master now, so she was not afraid.

Hearing Lin Ran’s words, Uncle Wang did not persuade her out of it anymore. Fortunately, it was still early, and the two of them did not meet anyone on the way.

When they arrived at the neighboring village, Uncle Wang’s friend had yet to eat breakfast.

Seeing Uncle Wang and Lin Ran, Ma Erzhu was a little surprised and asked Uncle Wang, “Why are you here?”

“Erzhu, I found you a doctor.”

“Where’s the doctor?” Ma Erzhu did not realize Lin Ran was the doctor at all, even though she was carrying a medical box.

Female doctors existed, but none of them were as young as Lin Ran.

Seeing his good friend’s reaction, Uncle Wang was a little amused. He pointed at Lin Ran and said, “Isn’t this a doctor?”

“Her?” Ma Erzhu could not believe it and said to Uncle Wang, “Are you lying to me? She’s just a little girl. Are you sure about this?”

“Yes, she’s a doctor.” Wang Daniu nodded with a smile and said to Ma Erzhu, “Let me tell you. Yesterday, I went hunting in the mountains and was accidentally bitten by a poisonous snake. It was this little girl who treated me. Otherwise, you would be out collecting my corpse by now.”

“What? Why were you so careless?” Ma Erzhu was worried when he heard that his friend had been bitten by a snake. In the past, when they went up the mountain to hunt, they would go together, so they could watch each others’ backs. Ever since he had a big boil on his body and was in so much pain, he did not go up the mountain. Unexpectedly, his friend had been bitten by a snake.

“I was careless,” Wang Daniu said as he showed Ma Erzhu his wound. Since medicine was applied to it, Ma Erzhu only took a glance before looking away. He thanked Lin Ran solemnly and apologized. “Young lady, I’m sorry. I shouldn’t have doubted your identity.”

“It’s fine. Uncle Wang said you have a big boil on your body. Where is it? Can you let me take a look first?”

“Erm… Are you sure about it?” Ma Erzhu was a little hesitant. His boil was on his back, but Lin Ran was still a young girl. In the future, she had to get married. If others knew that she had seen a man’s body, she might have trouble finding a husband.

Lin Ran could tell at a glance what the other party was worried about. She could not help but smile. “Uncle Ma, I’m a doctor, so all of you are just patients and you don’t have to worry. If my future husband can’t accept that I’m a doctor, I don’t mind staying single.”

“You can’t say that. All girls eventually get married. If that’s the case, I’d rather not let you see it.”

Seeing Ma Erzhu’s serious expression, Lin Ran could only soften her tone and say, “Uncle Ma, I’m just saying. Don’t take it to heart, okay? Let’s examine you first.”

“Erh…” Ma Erzhu was still a little hesitant. In the end, Wang Daniu gently touched his hand and said, “Erzhu, we don’t have to tell anyone she treated you if it helps, okay?”

Ma Erzhu thought about it and finally agreed, “Alright then. I don’t mind getting treated by you.”

Wang Daniu helped Ma Erzhu lift the clothes on his back, revealing the boil. Seeing the boil, Lin Ran narrowed her eyes slightly.
