Su Qing was taken aback by the remarkable effectiveness of the herbs that Qin Zhenzhen had found for him. The swelling in his feet had completely disappeared after applying the herbs for the second time. It seemed almost magical to him.

In the midst of preparing dinner, Qin Zhenzhen received Su Qing’s assistance. As he observed her, admiration for her grew within him, giving rise to a sudden glimmer of hope.

“Third Sister-in-law, would you consider accepting me as your disciple?” he asked earnestly.

Thinking he was joking, Qin Zhenzhen replied, “What is it that you wish to learn

Su Qing’s expression was resolute as he responded, “I want to learn the art of herb identification and the skill to save lives.

Qin Zhenzhen smiled, her tone gentle yet firm. “Saving lives is not an easy task. It requires a great deal of effort. Besides, I am not a trained physician.”

In her previous life, she had primarily focused on physiotherapy and food therapy rather than traditional medicine.

Witnessing Su Qing’s disappointment, Qin Zhenzhen continued, “However, if you are interested in learning about medicinal herbs, I can certainly assist you. I can also teach you physiotherapy and food therapy.”

Anticipating that their true identities might be exposed, leading to their separation upon returning to the Duke Mansion, Qin Zhenzhen no longer concerned herself with Su Qing’s thoughts at present.

A young man known for his ostentatious displays suddenly underwent a change of heart, surprising everyone.

Yet Su Qing’s earnestness remained unwavering. He inquired, “Third Sister-in-law, could you explain what physiotherapy and food therapy entail?” Qin Zhenzhen turned towards Su Qing, her eyes filled with hope.

Initially, Qin Zhenzhen had refrained from elaborating, considering Su Qing’s unpredictable nature and his possible fickleness. However, to her surprise, he persisted, pleading, “Third Sister-in-law, could you please enlighten me?” “I had the opportunity to study at Cultivated Talent Wang’s residence for two years, and even Cultivated Talent Wang himself acknowledged my intelligence,” Su Qing asserted confidently. “You don’t need to worry, I will grasp the concepts.”

“Alright.”

“Physical therapy, also known as nursing treatment, employs supplementary methods to achieve specific therapeutic effects on human ailments. It encompasses various techniques such as massage, acupuncture, Qigong, guided treatments, and water therapy, all derived from traditional Chinese medicine.”

Su Qing listened attentively, absorbing the information. “Third Sister-in-law, do you possess knowledge of all these techniques?”

Qin Zhenzhen nodded, her excitement evident. “Indeed, I do!”

“Eating therapy, or food treatment, utilizes the inherent characteristics of food to regulate bodily functions, promoting health and preventing illness. It employs common foods in our daily lives, skillfully matched and meticulously prepared to maximize their natural effects.”

“The key aspect of food therapy lies in its ability to aid the body and stimulate its self-healing capacities, thereby fostering holistic well-being from within.” “Food is of utmost importance to humans. While we rely on consuming diverse foods for survival, we are also susceptible to illness. Food therapy distinguishes itself by not only treating ailments but also satiating hunger.”

“This concept aligns with the adage that ‘food and medicine come from the same source.”‘

Though Su Qing couldn’t retain all of Qin Zhenzhen’s lengthy explanations, he grasped the underlying principles and admired her even more.

“Third Sister-in-law, you possess extensive knowledge, do you also engage in reading?”

Qin Zhenzhen did not deny that. “My father is an Elementary Level student, and my four brothers and I have been learning from him since we were young. I can read most books.”

“Third Sister-in-law, I think you are better than a real doctor, but who taught

you all of these?”
