Reborn in the Eighties as a Housewife with a Space

Chapter 38 - 38: Treating Fang Hong’s Illness



Well, Qin Xue learned a lot of inside information today.

Could she perhaps use her medical skills to help Fang Hong?

As soon as she thought of it, she put Jingtao on the bed and folded a cloth on the table, then called Fang Hong over: “Sister-in-law, come here for a moment and put your hand on this.”

“Qin Xue, are you going to treat my illness?” Fang Hong sat in front of Qin Xue and put her hand on the cloth.

“Well, sister-in-law, I just heard you guys talking and wanted to try, but I’m not sure if I’ll be successful.”

Qin Xue just thought she might as well try and see if it was a condition she could treat.

Qin Xue placed her hand on Fang Hong’s wrist, quietly feeling her pulse, and recalling the Chinese medicine knowledge her grandfather taught her. Then she switched to her other hand to continue taking her pulse.

Turns out, Qin Xue really could treat this condition: “Sister-in-law, do you trust me?” Qin Xue let go of Fang Hong’s hand.

“Qin Xue, what do you mean? Can you really treat my illness?” Fang Hong asked excitedly.

“Yes, I can, but do you believe I can cure it?” Qin Xue thought it was better to ask clearly first.

“I believe you. I trust you,” said Fang Hong, feeling very lucky today.

“Sister-in-law, you haven’t seen me treat anyone before. Just because I said I could, you believe me?” Qin Xue asked Fang Hong with a smile.

“Yes, I believe you. Although I haven’t seen you treat anyone and I don’t know how you can treat people, but I just believe you, just like when you said you wanted to make clothes for sale,” Fang Hong didn’t know why, but she believed in Qin Xue.

“Alright, as long as you believe me, I’ll write you a prescription, and you can bring me the herbs after you buy them. I’ll cook the medicine for you, and after three months, you’ll be better.

But during these three months, there’s one crucial rule: if you break it once, all previous efforts will be wasted, ” Qin Xue looked at Fang Hong with wide-open eyes, and a smirk on her lips.

“What’s the matter? Why are you making that face…” Fang Hong couldn’t figure out what Qin Xue was trying to express.

“Well, during the three months of taking the medicine, you and Mr. Xie cannot have…you know,” Qin Xue explained with a smile, nudging her lips towards Fang Hong.

With a loud “boom,” Fang Hong’s face turned as red as a cooked shrimp, and everyone else laughed. Even more embarrassed, Fang Hong pointed at Qin Xue, “You little girl, are you asking for a beating? You even tease me.”

“Sister-in-law, I’m not teasing you, I’m being serious.

If you have sex while taking the medicine, it’s like a blown-up balloon losing air, you get it?

Even the order of cooking the medicine is different, so that’s why I’m telling you to bring the herbs to me, and I’ll cook them for you,” Qin Xue wrote a prescription for Fang Hong.

“Sister-in-law, could you not tell anyone that I’m helping you treat your illness?” Qin Xue didn’t want to draw too much attention now, she just wanted to focus on designing clothes and making money quietly.

“Hmm, why?” Not only did Fang Hong not understand, but Yu Xiu and Fang Xiu didn’t understand either.

“Because I don’t want to attract too much attention. As you all know, I’m pregnant and also designing clothes.

If people find out I can treat illnesses, won’t that be too high-profile?

What if someone gets jealous and causes trouble?

So, please sister-in-law, help me keep my secret. Besides, aren’t you afraid it won’t work, and

what if I can’t cure your illness? It’s not too late to talk about it after you’re really healed, right?”

Qin Xue didn’t want to assume the worst of people, but in these impoverished times, many would get jealous and cause trouble when they saw someone with money, and that’s exactly what she wanted to avoid.

“Alright, we won’t tell anyone; it’ll be our little secret,” the other three thought about it and agreed. Since Qin Xue didn’t want people to know, they wouldn’t say anything.

“Sister-in-law, take this prescription and get ten sets of herbs for ten days, drink it twice a day. After ten days, I’ll adjust the prescription for you to get more herbs.

Go and get the herbs at lunchtime when the shop is less busy, and get a medicine pot while you’re at it.

Cook the medicine at home in the morning, drink it, then come to the shop. Drink it once again when you return home in the evening,” Qin Xue thought for a moment and told her.

She could cook the medicine once in the morning and drink it, then heat it up in the afternoon and drink it again.

Mainly, Qin Xue wanted to use spiritual spring water as a medicinal guide to cook the medicine, afraid that others would discover her hidden space. Otherwise, Qin Xue would have just let Fang Hong cook the medicine herself instead of doing it on her own.

Sigh, even if she was helping Fang Hong treat her illness, she couldn’t let them know about her hidden space. No matter how good a person is, in the face of great interests, who knows what they might become..
