Su Wenxiu added, “That girl seems brilliant and calm, but I already have three apprentices. I don’t have the energy to take in another apprentice now. Besides, people will start gossiping if I take that girl in. It won’t be good for her reputation.”

Shen Qiuhua asked, “Isn’t Binglan also studying medicine? That’s because she was born with it.”

Su Binglan knew the ideology of this era was still somewhat feudal. She also knew she could not change people’s minds, but if someone were willing to study medicine, she would be delighted to teach them.

“Indeed, it’s inconvenient for a man to handle certain things, like pregnancies, but a woman can handle them. That’s why I plan to take in a few female apprentices.”

Everyone was shocked when they heard what Su Binglan said.

“But you’re already so busy, Binglan. Are you sure you can handle it?”

Su Binglan replied, “I have the idea already, and I still have to teach more people. I intend to set up a medical school and teach everyone medicine. Then more female doctors can help more people.

“I’ll need plenty of workforce and resources to set one up, but it’s still possible to take in apprentices and set up a small class of more than ten people first.

That way, those ten people can help teach others when they complete their studies, and I can set up a proper medical school in the future.”

Su Wenxiu’s eyes lit up excitedly when he heard his sister’s words. “That’s an incredible idea, Little Sister!”

‘A medical school, huh?’

When he thought about that, he realized that many more people would study medicine so that more people could afford to see a doctor. It was just like how the people of Yangshan Village had their accident near Willow Village.

If there were a doctor in Willow Village, they would not have had to travel to Su Teng Village to look for Su Wenxiu or Su Binglan.

Fortunately, only one person broke his leg. It would have been worse if there had been a life-threatening situation, but the person was okay since he received treatment in time.

Su Wenxiu highly supported his sister’s idea, but the rest of the family fell silent. They felt Su Binglan had lofty thoughts and could not grasp those aspects yet.

Still, as members of the Su family, they supported Su Binglan’s idea because she wanted to do good deeds and help more people. After all, it was a matter of saving lives.

Shen Qiuhua felt especially so after going to Stone Village with Su Binglan, where she saved the mother and daughter. Shen Qiuhua also wondered what would happen to that woman’s family if something terrible happened to her. She said, “I support you, Binglan. You’re doing amazing things, so tell me if you need help.”

“I support you too, my daughter!” Su Fengmao echoed after returning to his senses.

Liu Yinyin raised her hand and said, “Me too, Binglan. It was also dangerous for my sister-in-law when she gave birth to my nephews. It was a close call then, so I know how it feels.

‘Binglan also saved my brother from that snake bite. I don’t know what would happen to my family without Binglan’s medical skills. My parents, Sisi, and my nephew would have gone crazy if Chengwen had died.’

Liu Yinyin dared not overthink. Therefore, she felt having more doctors around would be beneficial. Sometimes, saving one person was equivalent to saving an entire family.

Su Binglan looked at everyone’s supportive eyes and felt warm inside. Her family was her strength.

“Since everyone has agreed, we should tidy up the room in the north courtyard and turn it into a medical school. Let’s put in tables and chairs, and then we can start classes.”

The Su family’s house was vast and had several courtyards. The one she mentioned was in the northernmost part of the backyard, close to the house’s back entrance.

Su Binglan planned to separate that area from the house and use it as a medical school.

She explained, “Second Brother, you can help teach alongside your apprentices.

Let’s take in more students with an even mixture of males and females. However, some parents might not like us teaching boys and girls together, so it depends on who’s more open-minded and willing to let their children learn.

“We’ll make it entirely voluntary without tuition fees. I can teach the female students while you teach the male students about planting and harvesting herbs in the backyard.”

Su Wenxiu had no objections. “All right, Little Sister. I’ll follow your instructions. We’ll tidy up the place and arrange some tables and chairs before telling everyone about it when the weather improves.”

“Yes.”

It was already very late when the family finished chatting, so they finally went to sleep. Everyone slept soundly on their heated brick beds despite the cold weather, especially when they heard the north wind whistling outside. The howling wind was hypnotic, and snowy nights were best for sleeping.

However, the Su family dared not sleep soundly on snowy nights in the past. Their house was not sturdy back then, and they feared the snow would cause their house to collapse. Therefore, they would wake up whenever they heard the slightest noise.

Nevertheless, things had changed, and the family had a sturdier and more expansive house. They would be okay and sleep peacefully, no matter how heavy the snow was.

The snow stopped the following day, and snow covered the entire village after the blizzard. The village looked like a fairy tale.

Every household opened its doors early in the morning. The villagers took their brooms to sweep the snow from their courtyards to make a path.

Everyone had grown accustomed to such a thing. The villagers would clear a path at their doors to make it more convenient for others to walk whenever the heavy snow stopped.

When Su Binglan woke up, she realized someone had already cleared a path in the courtyard. She even heard children’s laughter. It turned out that Liu Yinyin was building a snowman with Su Xuexuan and Su Xuehai.

Since the academy was closed today, the two little ones did not have to attend school. Last night, Su Binglan told Liu Yinyin she did not need to look after the shop. Instead, she told Liu Yinyin to stay home and play with Su Xuexuan and Su Xuehai.

Still, Su Wenzhe went to the accessory store after breakfast because many people from the town still wanted to buy school bags and sweaters. They wanted some of the embroidery shop’s items instead of letting the foreign merchants have them all. Therefore, Su Wenzhe had to ensure the store had enough goods.

After washing up and getting dressed, Su Binglan went to the courtyard to help the trio build a snowman. The children felt energized and wanted to play after having a good night’s sleep and a full breakfast.

What seemed childish to adults was fun to them.

Su Binglan stuck a carrot into the snowman’s face, saying, “This is the snowman’s nose.”

“Isn’t that Pinocchio’s nose, Aunt Binglan?”

Su Binglan often told her nephews these stories, so they thought of Pinocchio when she stuffed the carrot into the snowman..
