Reborn in the 80s: The Smart Wife with a Secret Space Chapter 344
Xinyan wasn’t interested in the affairs of the Lyu Family and the Yu Family, but she could guess the gist of it; the worse their luck, the happier she was.
She bought a sleeper ticket, opting for the middle berth because she found the lower berth troublesome.
She boarded the train at night, got settled in, and went to sleep. For safety reasons, she didn’t enter her space at night.
Early the next morning, she got up and went to the bathroom, then entered the space. After surveying it, she practiced the military boxing He Jinxuan had taught her the previous day. She had to admit, she probably did have a knack for it since her moves were vigorous and graceful.
After finishing the set, she tidied up and brushed her teeth. When she returned to the compartment, the elderly couple on the lower berth had also gotten up.
Xinyan nodded slightly at the elderly woman as a greeting.
She made some oil tea paste herself and, in the morning, brewed a cup, retrieving two vegetarian buns to complete her breakfast.
After that, she climbed back onto the middle berth and took out the book Acupuncture Treatment Essentials from her backpack—though it was actually from her space—to read. This time, she also wanted to use the opportunity to find a meridian chart and get a set of silver needles for learning.
She had actually finished reading this book a while ago, but wanted to study it in detail once more. Her next step was to memorize the meridian chart, and afterward, practice needling.
She read for most of the day before closing the book. She had memorized all the books she brought, now she just needed to find a chance to practice.
She had just put the book away and was about to rest a bit when she heard a commotion in the front compartment. Someone was shouting, "Is there a doctor here, any doctor on the train, please save my wife."
A conductor, having heard the disturbance, ran over, and then a broadcast was heard, "Dear passengers, there is a medical emergency in carriage seven, urgently seeking a doctor."
The announcement was repeated three times.
The elderly man on the lower berth stood up, but the elderly woman sitting across from him held him back and shook her head.
The elderly man patted the woman’s hand, "It’s okay, I’ll go take a look, don’t worry."
The woman saw his resolute attitude and let go, "Don’t overexert yourself."
The elderly man took some things from his bag and walked towards the front carriage.
Xinyan immediately understood that this elderly man probably knew medicine and couldn’t resist wanting to follow and see.
So, she quickly climbed down from the middle berth, put on her shoes, and chased after him.
She had keenly noticed the elderly man holding a silver needle box in his hand, and wanted to see if she could learn something.
But when she got there, a crowd had already gathered, and she couldn’t see anything, so she reluctantly went back to the compartment.
After a while, the elderly man returned.
The elderly woman saw him coming back and quickly asked, "Is everything okay?"
The elderly man nodded lightly, "Luckily, we arrived in time. The person is saved, but the situation is quite serious. They have to get off at the next stop."
For the rest of the journey, Xinyan took the initiative to chat with the elderly couple.
She didn’t beat around the bush and eventually got to talking about Chinese medicine. The elderly man seemed to quite like her straightforwardness, and they had a pleasant conversation.
Fortunately, their small compartment had no other passengers coming in or out during the trip, and this led to several days of continuous conversation.
When it was time to disembark, she had learned a great deal about Chinese medicine, which benefited Xinyan immensely. All she learned was the elderly man’s last name was Du, the elderly woman’s last name was Cheng, and that they were visiting their daughter in another city.
