Chapter 646 Seeing a Doctor Requires Sincerity

Upon entrance, Abigail heard Alice’s voice and became a little excited. “Living here for two

years can make him better?”

“Exactly! It’s not that serious… He’s just a bit weak. We can replenish his body with good

food. There’s nothing that can’t be fixed with delicious meals,” Alice said with a smile.

The heavily concerned Abigail did not expect Alice to downplay the seriousness. “Alice, are

you telling the truth?” She became somewhat incoherent. “He was hospitalized a few days

ago because of a severe cold. It was serious.”

“Do you think I’d lie to you at my age?” Alice smiled and glanced at the old-fashioned

wooden clock in the living room. “It’s time to prepare lunch. Ronaldo, Abigail, come and

help me.”

“Okay!” Ronaldo became excited.

Initially, Abigail did not understand his excitement, but as they started cooking, she

realized Alice was an amazing cook. In the kitchen, knives were hanging on the wall near

the cutting area.

She also noticed that Alice primarily made a living through live-streaming her cooking. She

discreetly took out her phone and entered Alice’s live stream, discovering her more than

15 thousand fans, many of whom were learning to cook from her.

Abigail looked at the ingredients hanging in the kitchen and gradually developed an

admiration for Alice. No matter her age, Alice lived her life with such refinement. It was

evident that she loved life.

Meanwhile, Sean and Ronaldo assisted her, and Alice was considerate of the two. She

never let them appear on camera from beginning to end, informing her fans that one of

them had come to see her for medical treatment.

Abigail looked at the live chat and felt touched.

‘Grams, you’ve been alone for a long time. It’s good to have someone around you.’

‘Grams is a skilled traditional medicine doctor. It’s a pity that such a good doctor doesn’t

have any apprentices. The tradition might be lost.’

Becoming a traditional medicine doctor required a long journey, and one should have

talent in the medical field. But Alice was already old, and even if she tried her best to

teach, she could only do so for a few more years.

Even if she was willing to spread her knowledge for a few more years, others might not be

willing to learn for that long. Perhaps she did not want to dwell on this issue of passing

down the tradition

anymore.

The lunch Alice made was like a grand feast, and everything was cooked in clay pots. With

the combination of ingredients and medicinal herbs, the aroma made Abigail’s mouth

water uncontrollably.

Even Sean, who had eaten top-notch cuisine, was impressed by her culinary skills. “This is

even better than the food I eat outdoors,” he commented, his face slightly flushed after

finishing lunch.

Soon after, Abigail and Ronaldo helped Alice tidy up the kitchen. “Mr. Fernandez, why

didn’t you tell us about this amazing place earlier?” she asked.

“If Mr. Graham hadn’t been so sick, you wouldn’t have had a chance to come here. Alice

has been live- streaming for so many years, yet not a single fan has found out where she

lives. And you, wanting to taste her food for no reason, must be dreaming.” He quickly

washed the dishes skillfully.

At that point, she wondered if Sean had benefited from this misfortune.

After finishing the cleaning, Ronaldo planned to leave. “You can negotiate the medical

expenses and the cost of staying here yourselves, but you have to help with the

household chores and farm work. Alice grows her crops and buys rice and oil, but a lot of it

is self-sufficient, so living here might be a bit tough,” he explained to Abigail before

leaving.

“It’s okay. If Alice can cure him, everything else is not a big deal.” She felt much more

relaxed today.

He nodded and did not say anything more.

After he left, Abigail chatted with Alice for a long time. Alice did not ask for much money,

but she had many requirements, such as going to bed and waking up early, as well as not

allowing any romantic activities between men and women during their stay.

In terms of daily life, Abigail was responsible for purchasing, and Sean just had to listen to

her. After the two sorted the arrangement, they followed Alice to the vegetable garden to

dig potatoes in the afternoon.

Since Sean had never done farm work before, he was panting, and his hands were getting

blisters after digging a little. Abigail, on the other hand, was much more efficient than him.

Alice sat on the grass, watching him, and said, “Why are young people nowadays so tired

from doing so little? Are you planning to let your girlfriend work until dark?”

He looked at the blisters on his hands and could only endure the pain and continue

digging.

When the sun was about to set, Abigail walked toward the sweaty Sean and frowned as

she looked at his blisters. “Why didn’t you say anything when your hands were getting

blisters? It’s okay to do lesser work.”

“I think Alice is right. Being sick is not an excuse. I got blisters on my hands from doing so

little work. It just shows that I’m weak,” he told her.

At that moment, Alice walked over to Sean, grabbed his hand, and checked his pulse. After

examining. she hunched and circled back, commenting, “Young people in the big cities

nowadays are rarely healthy. Even if they eat well, they lack exercise. Their body is so

clogged.”

Naturally, Abigail and Sean did not understand the profound meaning behind her words,

which Alice did not expect them to understand anyway. Traditional medicine doctors not

only emphasized medical treatment but also the nourishment of the human body.

If the human body was malnourished, it would not yield good results, no matter how many

medicines were taken or how good the ingredients were.

The three eventually returned from the vegetable garden together, and Abigail and Sean
