"That's not how you solve this, silly girl, you definitely need to find a specialized doctor for this."
Li Yan's mother gave her a look of disappointment, as if to say 'how can you be so stupid', and said, "And for this kind of thing, don't trust those Western doctors, they don't work, their medicine has side effects. We need to trust traditional Chinese medicine, preferably an experienced old midwife, they are the true masters in treating women's diseases."
"Let me tell you, Zhao from the village ahead has been a midwife for over thirty years, very experienced. I'm on good terms with her. I'll talk to her later about your condition, and you can go see her."
Zhao, nicknamed 'Witch Zhao', is a well-known witch doctor in the village. She used to deceive many girls seeking children with incense burner ash.
Gu Tong wasn't familiar with her but could recall the village rumors from back then, none of which were good.
