If her practical operation went wrong, she would be scolded to death.
The practical exam was even harder, taking her more than a dozen attempts to pass.
Countless times Gu Jia Ning wanted to quit, but she couldn't. Once you enter the learning, you must stay until you learn it and pass the exam to leave.
Fortunately, this forced learning was effective; now, Gu Jia Ning can skillfully treat any ailment related to "Cold Uterus."
[Congratulations to the host for passing the exam, rewarding 10 points and a rare set of acupuncture silver needles.]
10 points? That's a bit stingy, but the acupuncture silver needles came at just the right time, as she can use them to treat her sister-in-law tomorrow.
Compared to the anxiousness before she started learning, Gu Jia Ning is now full of confidence.
Gu Jia Ning checked out the System Mall out of interest and was delighted to find it stocked with everything imaginable, nothing was lacking.
As long as you have enough points, you can even buy a rocket.
Of course, there are also very cheap items available, like some practical items she could use now, such as 50 meat buns for 1 point, a bicycle for 3 points, or a tractor for 10 points...
"If I bought these with points and then resold them, wouldn't I make a fortune!" Gu Jia Ning was dumbfounded.
But she was just saying it, not planning to trade that way for now.
Her intuition told her to save points for something she really needed.
Gu Jia Ning continued browsing and stumbled upon a great item.
[Super Body Scanner: Automatically installs in the eye, gives a complete scan of a human or animal's body within five seconds of a gaze, and can be used for a hundred years after binding.]
Gu Jia Ning carefully read its description and found it to be a super high-end version of a CT machine, detecting any issues in the body.
"It's practically an essential tool for becoming a Divine Doctor." Just a glance with your eye, a few seconds of scanning, and you can identify the problem without needing to check the pulse.
Gu Jia Ning decided she wanted to buy it and checked its selling price.
"It costs 100 points. 100 points, not too much but not too little either.
Currently, she only has 10 points, which isn't enough, but after treating her sister-in-law, as long as her sister-in-law successfully conceives, she will gain 100 points and then she can buy it.

After the sister-in-law agreed to the treatment, Yang Manman went to bed with excitement and anxiety and only fell asleep in the middle of the night. The next morning, while making breakfast, she told her mother-in-law about it.
"Alright, after breakfast, I'll go with you to see how Ningning treats it. May the ancestors bless us, and hopefully Ningning can cure your problem so you can smoothly conceive a child." Yao Chunhua had plans upon hearing her daughter had such skills yesterday, but she didn't expect her eldest daughter-in-law to take the step first, which turned out to be a good thing.
Gu Yunting was concerned about his wife's treatment but he had to go to work and could only ask about it when he got back.
While Gu Jia Ning was sorting out the silver needles in her room, her mother came with her sister-in-law.
"Ningning, what are these?"
"These are silver needles for acupuncture," Gu Jia Ning explained, then had her sister-in-law sit down. "Sister-in-law, let me check your pulse first to see your situation."
Actually, from the system's analysis, Gu Jia Ning already knew her sister-in-law's condition, but the pulse-taking process was still necessary.
Besides, she wanted to personally verify the knowledge she learned in the Divine Doctor Space.
Yang Manman sat down with a nervous and anxious heart, her wrist gently held by the fair fingers of her sister-in-law, silent but with a sense of hope.
"Sister-in-law, this should be Cold Uterus, right? During that time of the month for us women, don't you always feel pain and heaviness in your lower abdomen..."
Gu Jia Ning explained Yang Manman's symptoms bit by bit, combining the knowledge she had learned with the system's analysis.
Yang Manman and her mother-in-law Yao Chunhua exchanged a look, moving from initial anxiety and skepticism to excitement and surprise.
"Yes, yes, little sister, everything you said is right."
Yang Manman had been to the hospital several times, and her condition was known to her and her husband, as well as her mother-in-law, but it was impossible for the sister-in-law to know since they had never told her.
Now, her sister-in-law could describe her symptoms accurately just by checking her pulse, even more in detail than those doctors at the hospital. At that moment, the hearts of Yao Chunhua and Yang Manman were set.
"Ningning, do you think your sister-in-law's condition can be treated?"
"Yes, I have quite a bit of confidence." Gu Jia Ning withdrew her hand, "Starting today, I will do acupuncture on my sister-in-law's abdomen for half a month, coupled with medicinal baths, and that should suffice."
Gu Jia Ning wrote down several herbs on a notepad with swift strokes, the writing beautifully neat, then tore it and handed it to her mother. "This prescription, let my brother buy it back from the town in the afternoon when he returns at noon."
"Alright, alright." Yao Chunhua carefully took it with both hands, as if holding a treasure.
Indeed, this was a treasure, one of the hopes that could bring a grandchild in the future.
"Sister-in-law, let's go to your room, you lie on the bed, and I'll perform the acupuncture."
"Alright."
When Yang Manman lay on the bed, Gu Jia Ning lifted her clothes, exposing her abdomen, and lit a candle.
With fair hands holding slender silver needles, each needle was gently heated above the candle before being inserted into Yang Manman's abdomen with fluid and pleasing movements.
Yao Chunhua watched her daughter, noting her focused expression, working without hesitation, as if she was confident and practiced many times over.
Initially, Yao Chunhua was worried about the needles piercing a human body, but now, her heart suddenly felt at ease, inexplicably beginning to trust her daughter.
"Eldest daughter-in-law, how do you feel?" Yao Chunhua asked.
Lying on the bed, Yang Manman could see from the corner of her eyes the slender needles in her abdomen, with over a dozen inserted.
But...
"Mother, I feel fine."
Even though such long needles pierced her body, Yang Manman surprisingly felt no discomfort or pain, and as time passed with more needles inserted, she began to feel warmth spreading in her abdomen.
A warmth she had never felt before slowly spread to her limbs and to all parts of her body.
It felt comfortable, very comfortable, a warmth she had never experienced, making her eyelids grow heavier.
After Gu Jia Ning completed the needling, she was nudged on the shoulder by Yao Chunhua, indicating her sister-in-law had fallen asleep.
"It's normal, Mom, you can go on with your business, I'll keep an eye on my sister-in-law here. In about an hour, the needles can be removed."
"Alright."
When Yang Manman woke up, the room was empty, and in that instant, she wasn't sure if it was her psychological effect or if there was a real therapeutic effect.
She felt her body, which always felt heavy, become a lot lighter, and her abdomen no longer felt heavy and cold.
Sitting on the bed for a while, dazed, Yang Manman thought perhaps she could trust her sister-in-law this time.
Slowly placing her hand on her abdomen, thinking that she might soon carry a child, the furrowed brow of Yang Manman relaxed a little.
She thought, her husband would be expecting it as well.
