Dr. Guo seemed to have the intention of staying in the capital city.

Whenever I had free time, I would go to disturb him.

He would see me and hurry to greet me.

I have always been open-minded and didn't take it to heart.

When he was busy, I would even lend a hand.

Dr. Guo would ask me for help naturally, and no longer rush me.

I don't understand medicine, so I can only do simple tasks.

Later on, in order to be more helpful, Dr. Guo started teaching me some medical skills.

Perhaps I truly had talent in this aspect, and my progress was rapid.

One time, a patient came.

He said his leg was broken, but the bone had already healed, yet he still couldn't walk.

"Dr. Guo, why is that?" I couldn't help but ask, my heart beating a little faster.

Dr. Guo glanced at me and said, "In a person's body, there are not only bones, but also tendons. His injury is in the tendons, not the bones. It's in the waist, not the leg."

Dr. Guo also said that this kind of situation couldn't be cured immediately, but needed to recover slowly.

While Dr. Guo was treating the patient, I observed from the side.

Later on, I learned the technique and Dr. Guo allowed me to try it on my own.

Once I became skilled, I took Dr. Guo's set of needles and went back home.

I squatted in front of Chen Xiang's bed.

Soon, Chen Xiang opened her eyes.

I thought that at that moment, Chen Xiang must have seen a terrifying scene.

Her wife, holding needles, squatting in front of her bed, eager to try...

"Husband, I've learned a way to treat legs, do you want to give it a try?"

Chen Xiang snapped back to reality and nodded, "Okay."

At that time, I was immersed in excitement, not feeling that it was anything unusual.

Later on, it was a comment by the flower farmer that made me realize how outrageous my behavior was.

"General, how can you let someone who knows nothing about medicine treat your illness? This is even more absurd than trying to revive a dead horse!"

Although I followed Dr. Guo to learn medicine and received his guidance.

But it was only for a month.

For those learning medicine, it can take a few years at the shortest, or even several decades.

In just one short month, what could I have learned?

So, in the eyes of others, this was just fooling around.

Yet Chen Xiang, unexpectedly, was willing to accompany me in my "fooling around".

Despite the flower farmer's dissuasion, Chen Xiang still let me treat her.

"Husband, aren't you afraid that I'll make you worse?" I couldn't help but ask.

"You won't." Chen Xiang's tone was certain, even more confident in me than I was in myself.

Because of this trust, I put in all my effort.

Hoping for the day when it would finally have an effect.

While I was exerting all my effort to treat Chen Xiang, something that was expected happened.

Qingzhou was hit by a severe drought.
