The surgery was very successful, and afterwards, she had to have acupuncture done by Lin Zhilan two or three times a week.

Yin Xiuxiu felt reassured because Lin Zhilan had been watching over her.

After a period of acupuncture, Yin Xiuxiu became somewhat afraid, fearing that her daughter would revert to her previous state.

"Don't worry, Nannan's surgery was very successful, and she will only get better in the future."

Lin Zhilan placed her hand on Nannan's wrist, interlocking three fingers to calm herself down.

"She's controlling her bladder and bowels pretty well now, right?"

Yin Xiuxiu quickly replied, "That's great. She now tells me when she needs to go to the toilet, and she hasn't wet the bed at night anymore."

"That's right, you don't need to be too nervous. She's just like a normal child now. She just has a weak foundation, but she can make up for it gradually."

Yin Xiuxiu breathed a long sigh of relief.

With Lin Zhilan's words, she finally felt relieved.

Yin Xiuxiu now believes Lin Zhilan's words. Upon hearing that she was back, she couldn't wait for Lin Zhilan to go to work and immediately brought her child over.

"Dr. Lin, why don't you give her acupuncture for a while longer?"

"No need. You'd be better off using this money to buy the child some good food to nourish him," Lin Zhilan said earnestly. "The child is too thin right now; he needs to eat more meat, eggs, and milk."

"Okay, I'll definitely do as you say."

After asking about Nannan's illness, Yin Xiuxiu prepared to leave with her daughter, saying, "Nannan, let's go back. Thank Dr. Lin."

The little girl stood still.

Yin Xiuxiu paused for a moment, then frowned and asked, "What's wrong? Are you feeling unwell?"

The little girl didn't speak, kept her head down, and refused to move her feet no matter what.

"Nannan?" Yin Xiuxiu called out again.

"We have to wait for my little sister." Nannan's voice was very soft, so soft that Yin Xiuxiu had to put her ear close to her daughter's mouth to hear it.

Yin Xiuxiu looked up at Lin Zhilan, a little embarrassed, "She wants to play with Linlin."

Lin Zhilan smiled and said, "Your little sister went out to play and isn't home. You must listen to your mother, eat more, and get strong so you can go out to play with your sister later."

After listening, Nannan thought about it seriously and nodded heavily.

Yin Xiuxiu stood up and picked up Nannan.

Lin Zhilan reached out to stop her, "If you have the means, let her leave on her own."

She lowered her head and asked gently, "Little girl, can you walk by yourself?"

The little girl nodded obediently.

Yin Xiuxiu put the child down apologetically, "I'm used to holding her, and I'm always afraid she'll get tired."

"Proper exercise is good for her, Xiuxiu. Nannan is a normal child now, you need to change your mindset."

After Lin Zhilan finished speaking, she took out a box of pastries from the cabinet and handed it to Yin Xiuxiu.

Then he picked out two of the best roses from the remaining ones on the stone table and handed them to Nannan, saying, "These are from Dr. Lin for you and your mother. Take them home."

Nannan looked down at the flowers in her hand, and the corners of her mouth slowly turned up.

"Thank you, Dr. Lin." This time, she took the initiative to speak.

"You're welcome." Lin Zhilan patted her head.

After seeing the mother and daughter off, Lin Zhilan tidied up the things on the stone table and huddled together with Wang Rou to look through the Chinese herbal medicine paintings she had made during the New Year period.

Unable to find anything to do, Su Bingcheng asked Lin Zhilan, "Zhilan, I want to go out for a walk. Tell me which places I can't go."

Su Bingcheng was a soldier and was aware of this.

"You can't go north; there's a fence over there. You'll see when you get there."

"Okay," Su Bingcheng nodded, then asked his wife, "Would you like to go for a walk with me?"

Xu Yueyun shook her head, "You go by yourself, I'll stay at home."

She has exceeded the recommended activity level today.

I dare not go out with him again.

Moreover, since her daughter-in-law was talking to Wang Rou and Sister Hehua was still there, someone had to keep her company.

They had only known each other for two days, so they could only chat about everyday things.

Before long, several more groups of people arrived in the courtyard.

They all came to wish Lin Zhilan a Happy New Year.

Xu Yueyun was stunned by how popular her daughter-in-law was.

Seeing her like that, Aunt Lotus couldn't help but laugh and said, "Little sister, you'll know once you stay a while longer. Doctor Lin is famously well-liked on our island."

It's mainly because of the pharmaceutical company.

Neither the military region nor the factory intended to hide anything; everyone knew that Lin Zhilan was the soul and a great contributor to the pharmaceutical factory.

Moreover, Lin Zhilan's medical skills are renowned on the island.

You can't afford to offend a doctor, can you?

If something happens to you someday, won't you still have to ask them for help?

After listening, Xu Yueyun nodded blankly, "Of course..."

That wasn't a very polite way to put it.

Just as Aunt Lotus was about to crack a joke, Liu Chunhua rushed in.

"Dr. Lin, I have something to tell you!"

She had barely stepped inside when she began to speak excitedly.

"Oh, Aunt Hehua and Xiaorou are here too." Liu Chunhua paused when she saw them.

Aunt Lotus rolled her eyes. "What other secrets do you have? Tell Dr. Lin, not me."

Wang Rou and Liu Chunhua have completely different personalities and are incompatible.

It was only because Lin Zhilan was in the middle that the two were able to barely exchange greetings.

But Liu Chunhua and Aunt Hehua have a very good relationship.

The two of them often went to the supply and marketing cooperative together, and they would also go shopping for vegetables and fish together.

Hearing Aunt Lotus say this, Liu Chunhua laughed and said, "I was just afraid you wouldn't like to hear it."

"You go first, and I'll see if I want to hear it."

"Fine, I'll listen." Liu Chunhua turned and closed the courtyard gate.

With a look of sharing a big secret on his face, he said, "Don't you think it's a ghost? Today, Ma Daniu suddenly came to the factory to find me and apologized to me."

Lin Zhilan didn't know Ma Daniu very well, but she could tell he had a strong sense of male chauvinism.

It was indeed a bit unexpected that I was able to apologize to Sister Chunhua.

Lin Zhilan felt this way, and Liu Chunhua felt it even more so.

Liu Chunhua and Ma Daniu have been married for many years and have had many arguments, big and small. Ma Daniu will sometimes back down, but his so-called backing down is just taking the initiative to do some housework for you, as a way to give you a way out.

Liu Chunhua got used to it, after all, she had watched her parents' generation grow up like this.

When Ma Daniu apologized to her this time, Liu Chunhua's first reaction was not to be moved or happy, but to suspect that he was possessed by something.

Aunt Lotus asked, "What did Commander Ma say to you?"

Liu Chunhua swallowed hard. "He didn't say anything, just that he knew he was wrong. Once his mother's leg healed, he sent her away. From then on, he gave his mother eight yuan a month, and I managed the rest of the money. He never said anything again."

From half of my salary, then to twenty yuan, and now it's down to eight yuan.

It must be said that this is a victory in stages.

Aunt Lotus said, "That's a good idea, just agree to it."

"Is there some kind of trap? What if his mother finds out and won't leave?" Liu Chunhua was quite suspicious; he didn't believe that Ma Daniu had suddenly changed his personality.

He could be so heartless as to "wrong" his mother and his two younger brothers.

Lin Zhilan waved to her, "Sister Chunhua, if you're worried that your mother-in-law won't leave, I have an idea for you."
