Chapter 1227: Chapter 386: Beware of Kidney Deficiency_4

Mo Yan was momentarily taken aback, only then realizing that this fellow had been wanting her to examine him from the start. For a moment, she truly didn’t know what to say.

In that era, if a family were childless, people generally blamed the woman, or else there wouldn’t be such contempt for women unable to bear children, comparing them to "hens that don’t lay eggs." Many women were divorced and sent back to their parents’ home, often for the reason that they had "produced nothing."

Nobody thought that the inability to conceive could be a man’s fault, and even if someone did ponder this, they wouldn’t easily voice it unless a doctor had examined the issue and confirmed the fact. However, for a man to let a doctor investigate such matters was seen as a disgrace; even if the issue was his own, he would hide it and let no one know.

Cui Pingan must have been aware of this, yet he had the courage to doubt whether the problem might be his. Just this alone made him stand out from most men in the world.

Mo Yan’s face no longer held a trace of disdain for Cui Pingan. She pointed to a side room where no one was present and said, "Let’s go there, and call your cousin’s wife over as well. It’s best if there’s nothing wrong, but if there is, it’s better to start treatment early."

Cui Pingan had no objections and quickly brought Fangcao over.

Fangcao was not a beauty at first glance. She had a very round, delicate face and her facial features weren’t particularly exquisite, but together they were quite charming, and people couldn’t help but like her upon seeing her.

At that moment, she was following Cui Pingan step by step, seemingly without much opinion of her own, as if she were a little wife who believed her husband to be her everything. In reality, at home, Cui Pingan listened to her in all matters, and outside, she played the role of a submissive little wife, preventing anyone from ridiculing her husband.

It had to be said, such a woman was very smart; otherwise, Cui Pingan wouldn’t have remembered her for two lifetimes, resolute in marrying her as his wife. Having married into the Cui family for five months, she had managed not to suffer too much at the hands of Princess Fuyun. While part of it was thanks to Old Lady Cui’s protection, her own caution and carefulness played a larger role. After all, no protection would’ve helped if she had acted unworthily before Princess Fuyun.

Mo Yan had a very favorable impression of Fangcao. Seeing her walk in, she smiled and called out "cousin’s wife," which made Fangcao blush and modestly say "I’m not worthy" repeatedly. It was only after Cui Pingan casually said they were all family and told his wife not to be distant, that Fangcao shyly agreed and called Mo Yan "Yan Sister."

With just a change in address, their relationship felt much closer.

Knowing that her husband sought a child and had asked Mo Yan to examine them, Fangcao didn’t feel wronged. She immediately pressed Cui Pingan onto a chair, rolled up his sleeve for him, and placed his wrist on the pulse mat.

Mo Yan looked at Cui Pingan, who complained about Fangcao being too rough and turning his arm red, yet his eyes carried a happy smile. She shook her head and expertly placed her three fingers on his wrist. Hearing Cui Pingan’s miserable cries, she felt instantly balanced inside.

The couple appeared very relaxed on the surface, each stretching out a hand beneath the table to link fingers, yet they were very nervous on the inside. They watched Mo Yan unblinkingly, their intertwined fingers growing slightly damp.

After a moment, Mo Yan withdrew her hand, and without expression, she stared at Cui Pingan for a while, causing him to break out in a sweat on his forehead, before she said with ill intent, "Your body has no issues, just some kidney deficiency. I’ll give you a recipe for nourishing food, you should eat it well!"

The couple blushed deeply when they realized what she meant.

After Cui Pingan stood up, Fangcao, with a flushed face, sat in front of Mo Yan. She felt somewhat apprehensive, fearing that Mo Yan might see something she shouldn’t see.

Mo Yan gave a slight smile, but when her fingers touched Fangcao’s pulse, her expression subtly changed and she dropped her smile...
