49: I didn't expect you to be a bit vain.
The Traditional Chinese Medicine Clinic was silent.
The Buddy who had enthusiastically offered Qin Jiang water earlier quietly tossed the kettle into the trash can.
It was hilarious; he actually thought the well water tasted a little sweet.
He must have been possessed!
Ye Yun held that thing in her hand, her face pale.
At this moment, she was so embarrassed she could dig out a three-bedroom, one-living-room apartment with her toes!
How she wished someone would come forward and take that thing from her hand right now!
Thankfully, Ye Yun hadn't thought of sniffing the Ganoderma lucidum earlier, or how socially dead she would be!
In the live broadcast room, fans were already laughing hysterically.
“Look at the host’s expression, hahaha, it’s too wonderful!”
“I’d call her the most innocent female host in history, she can’t even recognize this thing.”
“Buddy, don’t say she couldn’t recognize it; I didn’t realize it at first either. Who would have thought of throwing this thing into a well!”
“The funniest part is that the cameraman even gave a close-up. This counts as a broadcast accident, right?”
“Reporter Ye, why don’t you put that thing down first.”
A villager, whose conscience couldn’t bear it, gave Ye Yun a way out.
Ye Yun forced a smile and placed the Ganoderma lucidum in a basin of water.
“Who was it!”
The village chief’s face was ashen, like an enraged lion.
“Who threw that thing into the well? Step forward!”
The villagers were silent, no one daring to speak.
Are you kidding? That was the well from which the entire village drank.
Now that it was contaminated, who would dare to stand up and admit it?
Wouldn’t they be beaten to death by the others?
The village chief was now seething with rage, feeling like he could barely breathe.
He had thought he could write a glorious chapter in the family tree by discovering the Ganoderma lucidum.
Who knew he did add a chapter, but unfortunately, it was one filled with shame.
The village chief looked at Qin Jiang.
“Dr. Qin, do you know whose thing this is?”
The villagers thought the village chief was confused with anger.
Dr. Qin is a doctor, not a policeman; what good would asking him do?
Who knew Qin Jiang nodded.
“I can indeed tell, but it involves the privacy of the person concerned, which might not be appropriate.”
As soon as he heard Qin Jiang had a way, the village chief immediately said, “What’s not appropriate!”
“When that bastard threw this thing into the well, why didn’t he think of the rest of us?”
“Dr. Qin, speak boldly, who is it!”
“As long as you find that person, I’ll reward you fifty thousand yuan!”
Wow!
Fifty thousand yuan right off the bat!
It seemed the village chief was truly furious.
Qin Jiang still shook his head.
“Although fifty thousand yuan is very tempting, I cannot do this without the consent of the person concerned.”
The villagers grew anxious upon hearing this.
“Dr. Qin, what are you afraid of? With so many of us watching, he can’t retaliate against you, can he?”
“That’s right, Dr. Qin, as long as you find that person, leave the rest to us!”
The villagers thought Qin Jiang was scared and encouraged him.
But Qin Jiang still waved his hand, refusing to agree.
The village chief then said, “Each of you go and tell Dr. Qin that you voluntarily accept the investigation.”
As soon as the village chief said this, the villagers’ eyes lit up, and they all rushed to Qin Jiang, stating that they voluntarily accepted the investigation and that it would absolutely not be considered an invasion of privacy.
No wonder they say the older ginger is spicier.
This move by the village chief was truly brilliant!
Those unwilling to speak must have something to hide.
They wouldn't even need Qin Jiang to act; they could just beat that person up.
Soon, everyone had finished speaking.
Judging by the reactions of these villagers just now, Qin Jiang already had a pretty good idea.
“How about it, Dr. Qin, can we start now?”
Qin Jiang nodded, pointed at a burly man in the crowd, and said, “Buddy, please come over here, I’ll take your pulse.”
Everyone was stunned when they saw the person Qin Jiang named.
“Buddy Changchun? How is this possible!”
“Yeah, how could a strong man like Buddy Changchun do such a thing?”
“His wife is also as beautiful as a flower, even prettier than the young girls in the city. He wouldn’t need that thing, would he?”
Ye Yun was also a bit confused.
Because this Liu Changchun was the first villager she interviewed.
No wonder Liu Changchun was always impatient when she interviewed him.
So, he had a guilty conscience!
Liu Changchun walked up to Qin Jiang, giving an awkward smile.
“Dr. Qin, why did you call me out? That thing wasn’t thrown by me.”
Liu Changchun’s wife, Yu Xiaocui, also hurried over.
“That’s right, Dr. Qin, my man wouldn’t do such a dirty thing.”
Seeing how nervous they were, Qin Jiang smiled and reassured them, “Don’t overthink it. I just noticed you seem to be unwell, so I’m going to examine you.”
“Come, put your hand on the pulse pillow.”
Liu Changchun still wanted to decline, but then the village chief came over with a few villagers.
The village chief slapped Liu Changchun on the head.
“Do as Dr. Qin tells you!”
Liu Changchun dared not say anything more and obediently placed his hand on the pulse pillow.
As soon as Qin Jiang took his pulse, Liu Changchun felt like there were insects crawling all over him, itching.
Especially when Qin Jiang didn’t speak for a long time, Liu Changchun became even more nervous.
“Dr. Qin, I should be fine, right?”
Qin Jiang sighed and said, “Where should I start with this?”
Liu Changchun: …
Qin Jiang’s sigh made Liu Changchun lose his confidence.
Just taking a pulse, and he didn't even know where to begin talking?
What the hell!
Liu Changchun quietly asked, “Dr. Qin, am I sick all over?”
Qin Jiang nodded expressionlessly.
“Mm.”
Liu Changchun was torn between laughter and tears, still wanting to be stubborn.
“No way? Look at all this muscle on me. I usually don’t feel like there’s anything wrong.”
Qin Jiang ignored Liu Changchun’s boasting and asked, “Do you usually have a sore back?”
The smile on Liu Changchun’s face stiffened.
He hit the nail on the head immediately.
“Yes, it’s sore.”
“Do you get up frequently at night?”
“Yes, frequently.”
“Are you dry-mouthed and bitter, sleepy during the day, and unable to sleep at night?”
Qin Jiang’s string of questions immediately cornered Liu Changchun.
Liu Changchun looked at Qin Jiang with a surprised expression.
“Yes, Dr. Qin, how did you know?”
Qin Jiang said earnestly, “You have kidney yin deficiency, and it’s already very serious. Has it already affected your marital life?”
As soon as Qin Jiang said this, Liu Changchun and Lihua both lost face.
Before Liu Changchun could speak, the villager Liu Ergou quickly said, “How is that possible? My Changchun is very strong!”
“At night, the noise could be heard by half the village. We can all testify!”
“Yes, yes! We can all testify!”
The simple villagers spoke their minds, but this only made the couple even more mortified.
Qin Jiang was stunned for a moment, then looked at Liu Changchun and said, “I didn’t expect you to seem honest, but also a bit vain.”
