The woman in white tried to comfort Emily, but she did not expect the opposite result.
“Isn’t this serious?” Emily glared at her. In the sister’s eyes, what was serious?
“Since you think it’s serious, that’s good too. I can make you take it seriously.” The woman in white spread her hands and compromised.
Emily felt very angry. She should not be greedy for small benefits.
“Don’t be angry. You have to believe. You are so cute. How could anyone not like you? Right?” the white dress said with a flattering tone.
Emily resisted the urge to roll her eyes. She was now in the boat of thieves. She could only admit defeat.
“What can I do? I can only pray that the people around me will like me now.”
“Don’t think like that. Everyone is an individual. Some people like you, and some people don’t. So you don’t have to worry at all. As long as the tree doesn’t fall, your life will not be in danger. So you can rest assured.”
“Thank you, but I really don’t feel comforted.” The corners of Emily’s mouth twitched. It was better to not talk than to wear white.
“Alright, let’s get back to the topic. Old Master Shen wants you to study. Why don’t you go and find some books? I’ll help you fill them up.”
Emily hurriedly nodded. She was secretly delighted. Would she be able to amaze everyone after school started? Wouldn’t that increase the liking of others for her?
“Don’t think too much. I’m just reading. The knowledge in the books still needs to be learned by you in class. I can’t teach those.”
“Then what can you teach?” Emily looked at woman in the white dress with a look that said, ‘What can you teach?’ Bai Yi was instantly annoyed.
“For example, the countering that you’re interested in today?”
Emily was instantly interested. She looked at Bai Yi in disbelief and said in surprise, “You know it?”
“Of course.” Bai Yi raised her proud head. There seemed to be four big words written on her forehead. ‘Come and praise me.’
“This doesn’t seem to be a big deal. Anyway, Second Aunt said that I should teach me. She just said that I’m still young.”
A hint of craftiness flashed in Emily’s eyes.
“What does that mean? But she’s not wrong. You’re a little young now, but your foundation isn’t good, and you don’t have the strength.”
Emily looked at the white-robed woman with some confusion. Only then did the white-robed woman slowly speak.
The so-called dexterity was only through the meridians and acupoints of a person, and by using the strength of the hands, it made the opponent unable to resist.
With Emily’s current small body, when facing a person who was taller than her, she had no advantage at all.
Emily rushed to the front of Bai Yi and asked excitedly, “So you know about the human body’s acupoints? Then do you know how to treat illnesses and save people?”
“Treat illnesses and save people? That’s naturally not a problem.”
Bai Yi was enjoying Emily’s worship and answered subconsciously. Suddenly, she realized that something was wrong. She looked at Emily and said seriously, “You want to study medicine?”
Emily nodded without stopping. “That’s right. I want to study medicine.”
Emily’s determined gaze somewhat surprised Bai Yi, but she quickly calmed down and said earnestly, “Studying medicine is very tiring.”
“I’m not afraid of being tired.”
Emily hurriedly shook her head and said again, “If I could cure illnesses and save people, would my mother have lived?”
Bai Yi’s gaze had a hint of dullness, but she quickly covered it up and said seriously, “Have you thought it through? You’re still young now. Are you sure you’ve made a decision for yourself so quickly?”
“I’ve thought it through. I originally thought that I wouldn’t have a chance, but I met the Shen family. The moment Grandpa said that he wanted to send me to school, it strengthened my desire to study medicine.”
Emily’s hands were tightly clenched on both sides of her body. She knew very well that she was not playing around.
When her mother had left her because of illness, she had thought that it would be great if she could learn medicine. However, after being neglected in the village, she even had problems with food and clothing. How could she dare to say that she had ideals?
“If that’s the case, then I’ll teach you this first. But you have to think it through. Learning medicine is very hard. You might spend your entire life studying. Don’t you regret it?”
“No.” Emily shook her head again, a hint of determination in her eyes.
She didn’t know that she could walk this path well, but she wanted to learn this. This was the greatest desire in her heart.
Bai Yi smiled in relief, and used her hands to float her hair by her ears. The breeze floated, and the hem of her skirt fluttered in the wind.. There was an indescribable beauty and quietness.
