Reborn as an Ugly Wife in the Countryside-Chapter 1078 - 1080: Your Wife Can’t Have Children, Can She?

Seeing Yang Ming agreed, Xue Zhiyi stopped and said, "Then you should go back now."

"No rush, I’ll wait until the herbs are collected. Don’t worry, since I promised, I will definitely speak on your behalf."

But Xue Zhiyi said, "I’m in a hurry!"

"..." Yang Ming was a bit speechless; what’s there to be so anxious about?

Actually, Xue Zhiyi wasn’t anxious about this matter. He just wanted Yang Ming to go back. He didn’t want Yang Ming to follow him up the mountain. Having those brothers along was enough; there was no need for him to take risks, and there was no need for them to know how difficult it was to gather herbs.

Seeing Yang Ming unwilling to leave, he had to come up with a way to make him go, so he said, "Little Liufu isn’t your son, is he?"

Hearing this, Yang Ming suddenly raised his head and looked at Xue Zhiyi. He couldn’t believe it; how could he change face so suddenly? He just didn’t go back immediately to help. Was there a need to bring this matter up?

He was somewhat exasperated, "What do you mean?"

"Don’t get me wrong, I’m not the kind of person who loves to meddle in others’ affairs. I won’t spread this all over the place, so you can rest assured."

"..." Then why mention it?

"What I’m trying to say is, your wife can’t have children, can she?"

Yang Ming’s eyes widened again. He knew these things couldn’t be hidden from Doctor Xue; he didn’t plan to deny it. But bringing up such matters was really too cunning and sly, wasn’t it?

The more Yang Ming thought about it, the angrier he got, angry that Xue Zhiyi would use this matter against him.

But a moment later, his eyes lit up because he thought of something that made his heart pound.

They had been so focused on finding Xue Zhiyi and getting treatment for Little Liufu that they forgot perhaps his wife’s illness could also be treated by him.

Seeing Yang Ming’s reaction change, Xue Zhiyi nodded with a smile, indicating that it was just as he thought.

Yang Ming remembered that Xue Zhiyi had already checked his wife’s pulse and should understand the illness, so he hurriedly asked, "Is my wife’s illness serious? Can it be cured?"

Xue Zhiyi then said, "To be honest, it’s quite serious and not easy to treat."

Hearing this, Yang Ming was very disappointed. Even the famous Doctor Xue couldn’t help?

But his expression just now obviously showed it could be treated, so he asked persistently, "Is there really no hope at all?"

"I only said it’s not easy to treat, not that it can’t be cured."

"Really?" Yang Ming’s emotions were stirred again.

Xue Zhiyi continued, "I can prescribe some medicine for her. These medicines need to be taken for a year or two, or possibly longer, but whether she can be cured all depends on her fate. I can’t give you a guarantee, you must understand, not every illness can be cured."

"Yes, yes, I understand. All my hopes rest on Doctor Xue." Yang Ming nodded in agreement. Everyone said there was no hope, yet his wife was still hopeful and wanted to try medicine. Now they see some hope from Doctor Xue, even if it’s just a glimmer, it’s still extraordinarily good news.

"Then hurry back and help me calm An’an."

"Okay, I’m going back now." Yang Ming agreed and turned to head towards Anyi Village.

He didn’t know why Xue Zhiyi didn’t want him to follow, but he agreed, thinking that with the An Family around, he shouldn’t do anything reckless.

Once Yang Ming finally left, Xue Zhiyi headed towards the direction of the mountain.
