Chapter 388 Broken Bones Reset, House Rebuilt

Each sound was accompanied by Takada's heart-wrenching screams of pain.

"father!"

Aji, who was guarding the door, heard the screams and tried to break down the door to rush in, but was stopped by the adults in the village.

The village chief's voice trembled as he said, "Don't come in! Miss Lin is treating your father; your presence will distract her!"

Takada's screams grew weaker and weaker, his face turning ashen.

Just as his consciousness began to fade.

Leng Xiyue's internal energy timely protected his heart meridian, like a warm current enveloping his dissipating energy.

"Hold on."

Leng Xiyue's voice was cold yet powerful: "It'll be ready soon."

Yun Dan focused intently on putting the broken bones back into their proper places.

He emanated internal energy from his hands, his fingers guiding the alignment of the bones in Takada's legs.

Her hands moved incredibly fast with each movement.

Takada's screams had already stopped abruptly.

He had completely lost consciousness.

After Yun Dan reconnected the last piece of bone, she breathed a long sigh of relief.

But her business wasn't over yet, so she immediately brought over the ointment she had made and the bandages soaked in the medicine.

The fabric was wrapped around Takada's calves layer by layer and secured with splints, the movements swift and precise.

Leng Xiyue withdrew her hand and looked at her.

"The pain of having his bones shattered is unbearable for ordinary people. It's already remarkable that he managed to endure half of it."

Zhang Sanfeng also spoke up, saying, "It's fortunate that this girl knows how to treat it."

Yun Dan smiled and replied, "Uncle Leng, Junbao, you two don't need to be so modest."

"If it were you doing it, I think it would be a piece of cake."

Zhang Sanfeng and Leng Xiyue replied simultaneously, "This humble Taoist priest does not possess such ability!"

The three of them went outside.

When the villagers saw Yun Dan and the others come out, they all rushed up to ask them questions.

Three days later, in the early morning, Takada slowly opened his eyes, feeling thirsty.

He squinted and felt a faint swelling and pain in his leg, but the excruciating pain from before was gone.

"water……"

He spoke in a hoarse voice, his throat so dry it felt like it was about to burst into flames.

Aji, who was dozing by the bedside, was instantly awakened by the sound.

He was so excited to see his father wake up that he almost knocked over the medicine bowl next to him.

"Dad! You're awake!"

"water!"

He scrambled to his feet in a flurry: "I'll go get some water right away!"

Aji rushed out of the house with a bowl of water and shouted at the top of her lungs in the yard, "Sister Yundan! Uncle Zhang! Uncle Leng! My dad's awake!"

The three of them rushed over from next door when they heard Aji's voice.

When the three entered the house, they saw Aji feeding Takada water.

"how do you feel?"

Yun Dan walked to the bedside and placed her hand on Gao Tian's wrist. Although the pulse was weak, it was steady and strong.

Takada swallowed the water and looked at Yun Dan: "Miss Lin... my leg..."

Yun Dan smiled and nodded: "The bones have been set. As long as you rest well for a few months, you will be able to walk like a normal person."

This is medicine for healing bones and tendons; it's to be taken twice a day. I've already told Aji to remember the times.

Takada watched as Yundan struggled to sit up, but Yundan held him down.

"Don't move! The newly set bones can't withstand any rough handling!"

During this period, you absolutely must not move around.

Otherwise, if the bones were misaligned, it wouldn't be as easy to cure as it was this time!

"I...I really shouldn't thank you so much, Miss."

Takada's voice choked with sobs, and tears streamed down his face.

"I've never met such kind people in my life... I'm so grateful for all the trouble you've gone through with my leg..."

"It's too formal to say such things. Just focus on recovering; that's the best way to repay me for treating you."

Aji wiped away his tears and said, "Dad, Sister Yundan not only treated your leg, but she also said she would build a new house for our family!"

Upon hearing this, Takada stared wide-eyed at Yun Dan in disbelief: "Build...build a house?"

Yun Dan nodded and said, "Yes, this thatched house is too dilapidated."

Spring is coming soon, and there will be constant rain. If it rains heavily, the roof will leak.

To prevent you from catching a cold and being unable to properly recover.

I was thinking of taking advantage of the time you're recovering to demolish this house and rebuild a brick house.

It will be spacious and sturdy, and it will also be good for your recovery.

Takada opened his mouth, but the tears flowed even more fiercely.

He choked up and couldn't speak, only repeatedly thanking Yun Dan.

Yun Dan quickly pressed him down, "Don't get excited. If your bones grow crooked, I won't set them back."

Takada finally calmed down, his eyes filled with gratitude and disbelief as he looked at Yun Dan.

Sunlight streamed through the window and fell on his face, reflecting the light of his tears and the renewed hope in his eyes.

When Yundan approached the village chief to say she wanted to build a new house for Gaotian's family, the old village chief was squatting in the threshing ground smoking his pipe.

I heard they're building a 100-square-meter brick house and need to ask the whole village to come and help.

He immediately knocked the pipe off his fingers: "Don't worry, Miss Lin! Leave this to me! Although there are few people in our Polin Village, we have plenty of strength!"

The village chief immediately took action, sending his three grandsons to summon people to the ancestral hall for a meeting.

The village chief told everyone that Yundan was going to build a house for Aji's family.

When everyone heard that they would receive thirty coins a day and three meals a day, they all supported the offer.

Yun Dan took out fifty taels of silver and gave part of it to the village chief to buy bricks, tiles and timber.

Part of the grain purchases were handled by the person in charge of cooking.

She also told the whole village that every meal should include meat and vegetables.

This sentence caused an instant uproar.

The next morning, the men carried hoes and shovels, the women carried baskets, and even the older children came to help with their little shovels.

The village chief stepped forward and shouted, "Listen up, all of you! The able-bodied men, follow the fifth brother to move the timber; the old women, go help in the kitchen; and the children... you'll be in charge of picking up the broken tiles!"

"okay!"

Everyone responded in unison, and the bustling construction project began.

Yun Dan wasn't idle either; she had to direct operations on-site and share her ideas with them.

Yun Dan would occasionally offer suggestions for modification to the carpenter.

"We need to leave a window here so that there will be good natural light!"

"This is the bedroom; it's bigger, so more people can sleep here in winter!"

The kitchen was set up in a makeshift shed, and several women were so busy that their feet barely touched the ground.

The rice for the porridge I cooked this morning was taken out by Yundan.

They were shocked to see such precious rice.

It was Yun Dan who told them to eat as much as they wanted, and only then did they pick up their bowls and start eating.

Everyone drank two large bowls of porridge, and after finishing, they naturally continued with their work.

At noon, two large pots of stewed pork and cabbage were made, and the aroma wafted for miles around.

As Aji passed by, he glanced at the table and, seeing so much meat, asked, "Auntie, why is there so much meat?"

Aunt Wang smiled and said to him, "Miss Lin gave us plenty of money, saying that we should buy more so that we can eat as much as we want and have the energy to work!"

The men carried bricks shirtless, sweat streaming down their dark backs, but no one complained of being tired.
