Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

Doctor Wu did not stay long and took the carriage back to town after dinner.

From the next day onwards, Lin Ran went to town early in the morning to learn medicine from Doctor Wu, and in the afternoon, she went up the mountain to pick herbs. Everyone in the village knew Lin Ran was Doctor Wu’s disciple. Occasionally, when they had a headache or fever, they would come to Lin Ran for treatment and get some medicine.

Lin Ran was very laid back. No matter the patient, she would treat them without charging them much. As a result, everyone liked Lin Ran more and more, and her reputation improved. Her good reputation even spread to the neighboring village.

A few days later, an old lady came to Lin Ran’s house and asked her to make a house call. She said that her daughter-in-law was going to have a child. The midwife said that it was dangerous and asked them to invite a physician to help.

When women gave birth, it was tricky with a male doctor. Since the old lady heard Lin Ran was Doctor Wu’s disciple, she came to look for her. Firstly, she felt that since she was Doctor Wu’s disciple, her medical skills were probably decent. Secondly, she was a woman. If her daughter-in-law really had a difficult delivery, she could go into the delivery room to take a look.

Li Ran agreed without hesitation when she heard it was a potentially difficult childbirth. Before she left, she avoided the old lady and went into the metaphysical medical hall. She took out some things that she felt she needed and placed them in the medical kit.

After preparing the things, she carried the medical kit and followed the old lady to the neighboring village.

In the neighboring village, Lin Ran had come once to treat Ma Erzhu. Today, the old lady who invited her lived not far from the Ma family. When she went past the Ma residence, Ma Erzhu even greeted Lin Ran enthusiastically and said to the old lady, “Auntie, Lin Ran’s medical skills are good. I’m sure your daughter-in-law is in good hands.”

Lin Ran smiled at Ma Erzhu and followed the old lady into the house. As soon as she entered the courtyard, she heard the cries of a pregnant woman. Her expression changed, and she quickened her pace and entered the room.

“How’s the pregnant woman?” Lin Ran asked as soon as she entered the room. The midwife was observing the pregnant woman when she suddenly saw a young lady enter. She immediately said, “Where did this young lady come from? Get out. You shouldn’t come in.”

The old lady followed behind Lin Ran. When she heard the midwife’s words, she immediately said, “Midwife Zhang, she’s the doctor I invited.”

“What doctor?” Midwife Zhang glanced at Lin Ran again and said to the old lady, “Old Madam Yang, are you being deceived? She’s a young lady.”

“I know. She’s Doctor Wu’s disciple. I heard that her medical skills are not bad. Don’t worry.”

Midwife Zhang looked at Lin Ran and wanted to say something, but at this moment, the pregnant woman cried out again. She had no time and went to check on the pregnant woman.

Lin Ran did not stay idle either. She put the medical kit aside and took the pregnant woman’s pulse first, then looked at her stomach. The pregnant woman’s stomach looked bigger than normal, and the fetus was probably rather large. No wonder the midwife was worried and asked Old Madam Yang to call a doctor.

Fortunately, she had done this before, so she did not panic. If it really did not work out, she could just perform a C-section on the pregnant woman.

With this thought in mind, Lin Ran turned around and instructed Old Madam Yang, “Granny, it seems that your daughter-in-law won’t give birth so soon. Cook a bowl of noodles for her to replenish her strength so that she’ll have the energy to give birth later.”

“Alright, I’ll go now.” Old Madam Yang turned around and went to cook the noodles. Lin Ran said to Midwife Zhang, “You can focus on delivering the baby later. I’ll take care of the rest. Don’t worry. Wth me around, nothing will happen to them.”
