The longed-for village system

Chapter 230 Ya Ya's Health Problems

After treating Zhao Jun, Chen Qing declined the two elders' invitation to stay and returned to the Mushroom House. By this time, the women had already finished lunch and were resting.

"Brother Chen is back!"

Upon seeing Chen Qing enter, Qinqin immediately ran up to him, and the other women circled around Chen Qing again and again, leaving Chen Qing looking on with a puzzled expression.

"What's wrong with you all? Why are you all surrounding me? Is there something strange on me?" Chen Qing asked curiously after looking down at himself and finding nothing unusual.

"Alright, stop crowding around Brother Chen." Ya Ya, who was trying to control herself under the shed, interrupted her sisters' behavior, and then softly asked Chen Qing, "You haven't had lunch yet, have you? Do you want me to go to the kitchen and make you some noodles?"

"Okay! Then I'll trouble you, Sister Yaya."

Skipping lunch was definitely not an option, and since Ya Ya had brought it up, Chen Qing didn't stand on ceremony. After all, she was his child's godmother, so they were practically family.

"Mmm! It's delicious, almost as good as those shops." After taking a bite of noodles, Chen Qing looked up and gave Ya Ya a thumbs up in praise.

"Eat more if you like it. There's still some in the kitchen. I'll get you more if you need more."

Seeing Chen Qing enjoying his meal, Ya Ya felt very satisfied, and her pretty dimples reappeared on her face.

Looking at Ya Ya's virtuous appearance, Zhao Xiaogu couldn't help but frown. This sister put more pressure on her than the other sisters. The appearance of a virtuous wife is extremely attractive to men.

There's a saying that the way to a man's heart is through his stomach. Looks like I need to learn how to cook. My man is so perfect, he has to be with a perfect woman. It's so hard for me.

After Chen Qing finally finished his noodles, the women who had been waiting for a long time couldn't hold back any longer. Yang Xiaomi was the first to ask, "Brother Chen, are your medical skills really that amazing? You can even cure cancer?"

"Yes! That's a terminal illness! Brother Chen, how did you learn that? You're amazing!"

"I thought you were already very skilled at bone setting and detoxification, but I didn't expect that these are just the tip of the iceberg. Brother Chen, do you think I can learn from you? Actually, I'd rather become a doctor."

"Brother Chen, are you an alien? You're so versatile. If you were any more handsome, I would definitely steal Xiao Gu's boyfriend."

"What are you saying! Even like this, our Little Chen is still very handsome."

Seeing Qinqin, Shishi, and the other girls surrounding him in amazement, Chen Qing understood. Zhao Xiaogu must have told them about his medical skills. No wonder they were circling around him when he entered the room.

"Control your emotions a bit! You're all top actresses!" Chen Qing was startled by this group of wolf-like women, truly afraid they would devour him in one gulp.

After they calmed down a bit, he nodded and responded directly, "I know a little about medicine. I can treat most minor ailments, but I can't guarantee a cure in the later stages. You are Xiao Gu's best friends, so you can come to me if you need anything in the future, but don't tell anyone about this."

Is cancer a minor ailment? Isn't it something that humans consider an incurable disease?

The women gave Chen Qing a tacit thumbs-up. Sure enough, a truly remarkable person speaks differently; he's like an old Versailles, something they, ordinary mortals, couldn't comprehend. However, they were also very happy. Having such a divine physician was like having a longevity insurance policy with them. Whether they fell ill or suffered an accident, they didn't need to be afraid; Chen Qing could cure them all.

Of course, they wouldn't let this opportunity pass them by. After being in the industry for so long, how could they not have any old ailments? It would be a good opportunity to have Chen Qing take a look at them.

Chen Qing had no reason to refuse their requests, so he began to take their pulses one by one. He also discovered that each of them had many hidden injuries and ailments. The most serious of them all was Ya Ya. Her shoulder had been hit hard before, and although she looked fine now, she would become paralyzed from the neck down if it flared up.

Chen Qing had a good impression of this quiet and virtuous woman and didn't want to see her spend the rest of her life lying in bed in hardship.

"Sister Ya Ya, do you have anything planned for the next while? Why don't you stay here and keep Xiao Gu company? I can also help you take care of your health," Chen Qing suggested to Ya Ya in a relaxed tone.

Although Chen Qing's tone was casual and relaxed, his words sounded very heavy to Ya Ya, and the slight smile on her face disappeared as a result.

She knew she must have many health problems, but she didn't expect it to be this serious. Did she also have some kind of terminal illness?

"Brother Chen! Am I seriously injured? Tell me honestly, I can handle it," Ya Ya asked Chen Qing in a low voice.

Seeing this, Qinqin, Shishi, and the other girls calmed down and waited for Chen Qing's answer. Judging from this, their sister's illness must be quite serious, otherwise Chen Qing would not have specifically asked her to stay for treatment.

"Don't worry! It's not cancer as you're thinking, it's just a minor ailment."

Hearing Chen Qing say it wasn't cancer, all the women breathed a sigh of relief. Ya Ya herself also breathed a huge sigh of relief. As long as it wasn't cancer, that was good. She could stay in the village to recuperate for a few days as she pleased, treating it as a vacation.

"Phew! Little Chen, you scared me to death! What's wrong with Sister Ya Ya? Just tell me!" Zhao Xiaogu asked as well.

“Oh! Her shoulder was hit or pressed by a heavy object before. Although she rested and recuperated later, the problem was not solved at all. I think she often feels pain in her shoulder. If her shoulder is subjected to heavy pressure or impact again, it is very likely to cause high-level paralysis.”

Chen Qing's words struck the women like a thunderbolt, and Ya Ya, the woman in question, turned pale with fright.

If they had to choose between cancer and high-level paralysis, they would definitely choose cancer. At least with cancer, they could die with some dignity and wouldn't be a long-term burden on their families. High-level paralysis, on the other hand, would mean just barely surviving, which would undoubtedly be a huge torment for them.

"Brother Chen, is it really that serious? I know my shoulder was injured before and it gets stinging when the weather gets cold, but the pain isn't intense. How could it cause paralysis?"

Ya Ya felt her voice trembling; this incident had a huge impact on her.

"This is just the beginning. Of course, if you don't experience any more impact on your shoulder in your life, the problem won't be too big. At most, the stinging sensation will gradually increase."

It's impossible that they weren't hit by a force. They're all actresses. It's common for them to fall off wires while filming period dramas, and it's also common for someone to stand on their shoulders while filming action scenes. This is clearly telling her that her acting career is coming to an end.
