Chapter 311: Chapter 311: Thought I Encountered a Ghost
“Ah!”
Suddenly, a voice broke in, frightening several whispering won into screams.
Upon closer inspection, it turned out to be Lin Caisang who had just left and returned. With her keen ears, how could she not have heard the gossip behind her?
Facial disfigurent was a serious issue.
In this ancient era where appearances were first impressions, not just for a girl, but even a man with a scarred face would arguably have a tough ti in life. With her compassionate heart for treating the ill and helping the world, she should ask. If it were treatable, she’d surely lend a hand.
“Uh…”
The several won who were just gossiping behind Lin Caisang’s back saw her standing beside them, their faces flushed with embarrassnt.
“Sisters, who were you talking about earlier whose face was ruined?”
Seeing them ignore her question, Lin Caisang earnestly asked again.
“Young lady, didn’t you just co from the Zeng Family?” one of the won finally managed to ask Lin Caisang.
“Zeng Family? Is that where I just ca from?” Lin Caisang asked in response.
Heaven and earth could bear witness, she had rely been arbitrarily dropped from an unknown location by a golden space bead. How could she have foreseen running into a patient by chance?
“I am a travelling doctor who has just arrived in Jianan City and lost my way. I saw that the alley was quiet, so I turned back. You were talking about the Zeng Family just now. Has soone’s face been disfigured?”
After she explained, she again shifted the conversation back to the disfigured Zeng Yulang.
“Isn’t it so.”
The loquacious woman from before, also a neighbor to the Zeng Family, started sympathetically.
“The Zeng Family have really fallen upon hard tis. They are a good family who didn’t offend anyone, yet in broad daylight, intruders rushed in and disfigured Yulang’s face.
“Oh my, I saw it once, what a misery. The wound is healing now, but that scar, I’m afraid will be there for a lifeti. His face is completely disfigured, anyone seeing it would get frightened. If soone saw him at night, they might even think they’ve t a ghost!
Just a few days ago, an arranged marriage that was all set was suddenly called off. The Yan family didn’t even say a word and left.
With Yulang’s disfigurent and the called-off marriage, it’s no wonder he’s distraught. He tried to drown himself in the river without telling his family. Thankfully, soone passing by saved him. Otherwise, the Zeng family lineage would have ended.”
“I see.”
Listening to the woman’s words, Lin Caisang nodded.
Ancient n are too fragile. Disfiguring the face makes them want to die, drowning themselves. Isn’t that sothing a girl would do?
“Is Yulang a scholar?” she asked.
If he were from the world of martial arts, he wouldn’t try to drown himself over sothing so trivial. Probably a scholar who has read too much and is rigid in his thinking. Sothing goes wrong, and they get too easily overwheld.
“Yes, he is a fine scholar with a promising future, but it has all been ruined now,” the woman replied.
Suddenly, she stared intently at Lin Caisang. Rembering that Lin Caisang had just ntioned being a traveling doctor, this kind of woman doctor is very rare. Those who can travel to practice dicine, and don’t fuss in their deportnt, must be soone capable.
Maybe she could help the Zeng Family.
“Miss, did I hear you right? Are you a doctor?”
“Mm.”
Lin Caisang nodded.
