Chapter 526: 526 is a person who loves gossip (additional update)

Upon hearing this, a trace of light appeared in Grandma Yang’s eyes.

She thought for a moment and said, "Let’s not get ahead of ourselves, you should see a doctor about your health first. If it’s really... then we can consider adopting a child."

In this regard, she admitted she was selfish, as she didn’t want her son to adopt a child without a blood relation.

Xiao Heping saw that his mother’s complexion had greatly improved and felt a bit relieved.

As for his own health? He held no expectations.

He had seen many doctors to no avail.

He had sustained brainstem damage that led to neurological damage, which didn’t affect his capability in that aspect, but left him unable to have children.

With current medical technology, the chances of a cure were slim to none.

Xiao Heping didn’t mention any of this, simply nodding and saying, "Okay, I’ll listen to whatever mom says."

Lin Tang remained motionless throughout, like a civet in a melon field.

Grandma Yang’s anxious heart eased slightly as her eyes turned towards Lin Tang who was tucked away in a corner, her tone apologetic, "Tangtang, I’ve wasted your time off."

Lin Tang waved her hand, "No, no, I’m still energetic."

Xiao Heping glanced at her indifferently, "You’re this happy listening to my idle talk?"

Song Yi couldn’t help it and burst out laughing.

After confirming with a look, it’s clear they both love gossip!

Lin Tang thought to herself, could she really admit to that? Of course not.

She earnestly denied it, "No, I just didn’t have a chance to leave."

Her expression was full of sincerity, not at all like someone who was lying,

Xiao Heping’s gaze deepened, and he smiled without taking her to task.

He admired Lin Tang’s courage.

He had many things on his plate and couldn’t afford to waste more time, so he said to Lin Tang, "Thank you for your help today."

After thanking the young girl, Xiao Heping turned to Grandma Yang.

"Mom, are you coming back with me?"

Grandma Yang didn’t respond, but she pulled Lin Tang aside upon remembering something.

"Tangtang, I want to ask you something."

Lin Tang looked serious, "Ask away, I will hold nothing back..."

Grandma Yang organized her thoughts and glanced at her son before whispering, "Do you have any medicine for treating... brainstem damage, neurological damage?"

Brainstem damage?

Neurological damage?

This...

No wonder, Lin Tang suddenly understood.

Brainstem damage leading to neurological damage, indirectly resulting in infertility, it all seemed to add up now.

Seeing that Lin Tang hadn’t spoken for a long time, Grandma Yang thought her request was too much and her face showed disappointment.

Sigh, she had indeed asked too much of the young girl.

After all, Tangtang was just a young lady.

To be able to make Medicinal Wine was already impressive enough, how could she possibly create a medicine for Heping?

Heping’s injury was such that even the doctors in the Army couldn’t cure it.

"Never mind if you don’t have it..." Grandma Yang began to say.

Lin Tang came back to her senses and said, "I don’t have it on hand, but I can make it."

Grandma Yang thought she had misheard and was stunned.

Her body froze, even forgetting to move her eyes.

After a long while, she clutched Lin Tang’s hand, her eyes showing nervousness, hope, and fear.

"Tangtang, are you telling the truth?" Her heart hung in her throat.

Medicines to treat brainstem and neurological damage were common in the future, and Lin Tang, being a medicine student, certainly knew of them.

She nodded firmly, "It’s true."

Grandma Yang placed a special trust in Lin Tang, after all, it was Tangtang’s Medicinal Wine that had helped her overcome her chronic illness.

If she didn’t have confidence in the young girl, she wouldn’t have immediately thought of Lin Tang after overhearing the conversation between her son and Song Yi.

"...Tangtang!"

Grandma Yang’s eyes filled with tears, after crying for so long, her eyelids had swollen.

With her emotions too complex for words, she could only utter ’Tangtang’ and nothing else.

Lin Tang could understand her feelings.

To think that her son, who was thought to have been sacrificed, had returned home against all odds, and just as there was hope for the future, to then hear such devastating news, who could endure it?

What’s more, it had been the custom in Zhonghua Country for thousands of years that not having offspring was the greatest of unfilial acts.

If Xiao Heping couldn’t leave a child behind, Grandma Yang would likely feel unable to face her own spouse.

"Grandma Yang, please take a deep breath, don’t hold it in. I know what you want to say, don’t get worked up!"

She gently patted the old woman’s back, helping her to relax.

Grandma Yang breathed in and out several times until her breathing returned to normal.

Her hand grasped Lin Tang’s the entire time, as if she’d been given a new lease on life.

Her aged eyes looked at Lin Tang with pleading, "Tangtang, this old lady wants to ask you to prepare medicine for your Uncle Heping..."

Fearing that Lin Tang would refuse, Grandma Yang hastily added, "No matter if you can make it or not, I won’t let you suffer any losses, okay?"

Her intention was that, as long as Tangtang was willing to help, whether successful or not, she planned to give half of the valuable things she had saved up to Tangtang.

Lin Tang was unaware of Grandma Yang’s internal deliberations. She first nodded her head, then shook it.

"I can make the medicine, but I’ll need Uncle Heping to help gather the required herbs."

She could help with the cooking without expecting compensation because it was something she could easily assist with.

However, that did not mean she was about to take on every single task.

Grandma Yang was eager for Lin Tang to have more conditions, saying, "Alright, Heping will gather the herbs, do you have any other requests? Don’t be shy, ask away and I’ll have your Uncle Heping take care of them."

Lin Tang shook her head, and said earnestly, "No, that’s all. Other than the herbs, I have everything else I need."

Seeing that she didn’t seem to be in any difficulty and knowing of her abilities, Grandma Yang stopped worrying.

Taking Lin Tang by the hand, she walked over to Xiao Heping.

"Heping, Tangtang says she can make medicine to treat your illness; she just needs you to gather some herbs."

Her words struck like a thunderbolt on a clear day, reverberating in their ears.

The shock left Xiao Heping and Song Yi somewhat slow to react.

Xiao Heping knew of Lin Tang’s medicine-making abilities but never imagined she could make medicine for neurological issues as well.

His firm gaze sparkled with a hint of shock.

"Tangtang, are you serious?"

Lin Tang shrugged, her expression nonchalant, "Yeah, as long as there’s no mistake in the diagnosis, the medicine I make should cure your illness."

Xiao Heping had no doubts; he was well aware of Lin Tang’s character.

In that moment, he was so overwhelmed by the news that he felt somewhat dazed.

To be normal, who would want physical faults?!

Song Yi was also stunned for a good ten seconds, his eyes wide as saucers, staring dumbfounded at Lin Tang.

"Comrade Lin, are you sure about this?! The medicine won’t have any side effects, right?" he asked nervously.

This concerned the leader’s health, so naturally, Song Yi took it very seriously.

Lin Tang raised an eyebrow and said, "Did the hemostatic medicine and the dysentery treatment I gave you before have any side effects? The medicine for brainstem and neurological issues will be the same."

Song Yi suddenly remembered the miraculous effects of the medicine provided by Lin Tang, and his eyes gleamed.

His face broke into a joyful smile.

"Really?"

As his words fell, he saluted Lin Tang respectfully and said, "Comrade Lin, we’ll count on you for our leader’s treatment. Let me know whatever you need, and I’ll make sure it’s done properly."

Captain Xiao is a hero who had dedicated so much to the country; he shouldn’t be unable to leave a child behind.
