Siheyuan: Get the system at the beginning

Chapter 54 Acupuncture Treatment

Grandpa Tian is now extremely thin and emaciated, and he is tortured by illness and has no energy at all. Even though he can hear the conversation between his wife and Zhang Xiaoyan and understands what is going on, he does not have the strength to express himself and can only let it go.

"Don't worry, Uncle Tian! My medical skills are pretty good. Although I can't cure your pain this time, I can still relieve it."

Although Zhang Xiaoyan wanted to cure the patient in one go, she was afraid that she would have to spend the rest of her life under surveillance if such miraculous medical skills were used. So it was better to be safe. In addition, it was better to send the patient away so as not to shock Aunt Tian too much.

Without waiting for the other party to react, Grandpa Tian, ​​who was lying flat on the bed, only felt a little silver light flashing in the air. He couldn't see it clearly, but after a while he felt the coldness in his body and the pain was relieved a lot. His body felt relaxed and sleepiness swept over his heart, and he soon fell into a deep sleep.

"How is my husband?"

Seeing Auntie Tian's face full of hope, Zhang Xiaoyan naturally didn't keep her in suspense and nodded directly.

"The symptoms should be much relieved. You will need five more acupuncture treatments, one every three days. Of course, you will also need to take soup during this period. I will write you a prescription. As long as you follow it, Mr. Tian will recover soon."

"Oh, that's great. Thank you so much. I'll go find some paper and a pen for my grandson. You can write it down. I promise to do as you say."

Aunt Tian almost cried with joy. She was so sad to see her husband suffering like this day by day. Fortunately, her children were filial, otherwise she really didn’t know what to do.

It happened that Auntie Tian's daughter-in-law came back at this time. Auntie Tian gave Zhang Xiaoyan a pen and paper, and then gave them a brief introduction.

When there were younger people around, Zhang Xiaoyan explained some of the requirements in more detail. After all, Aunt Tian was somewhat old, her memory was not very good, and she was illiterate. Her daughter-in-law could read a little and was young, so Zhang Xiaoyan naturally explained clearly how to take care of her and how to boil the medicine. She didn't stop until both the mother-in-law and the daughter-in-law understood everything.

I drank two large bowls of warm water in one breath, and then I felt my throat was better.

"Just do what I said. Not only in terms of diet, but also in terms of ventilation and warmth. Closing it too tightly and not allowing air to circulate is not good for your health.

By the way, that prescription is only for this time, and it will only cure Mr. Tian’s illness. If you give it to someone else, it could easily turn into poison, and if it kills someone, that would be terrible.”

Zhang Xiaoyan thought of something she had heard from a colleague gossiping before, and hurriedly said, "There's nothing I can do. I didn't expect people nowadays to be so good at taking advantage. As long as there is a prescription for patients with similar conditions, they will want to follow this prescription to get the medicine, and they don't even think about Chinese medicine. However, the medicine prescribed according to the patient's own lesions does not match that of others at all. It's okay if it's cured by accident, but if it can't be cured, won't you become a quack in the eyes of others? If someone dies, you will have to take the blame!" So when Zhang Xiaoyan thought of this, she quickly took precautions. Anyway, the words had been spoken, so listen, and if not, it was none of her business.

It’s a bit sad to think about it. The decline of traditional Chinese medicine is partly due to this reason.

As expected, Zhang Xiaoyan’s reminder was very timely. She saw Aunt Tian’s daughter-in-law nodding awkwardly. She had a relative in her family with a similar condition to the public. She thought that since it was the same disease, she could take the patient back to her relative to get him cured and gain a favor. But after hearing what Zhang Xiaoyan said, she was also worried. She didn’t dare to do so. What if something happened and she lost the favor? Not only would she offend someone, but she would also lose his life. Then she would never have peace in her life.

By the time she left Maoyan Hutong, Zhang Xiaoyan had completed half of what she was going to do today. She planned to spend the rest of the time looking for those old farmers in the market. After all, if she wanted to exchange some seeds, she would have to exchange the watch ticket she had obtained before for a watch. She always felt like something was missing in the days when she couldn't see the time and had no sense of time.

As expected, Chinese New Year is coming tomorrow. The market is very lively today. It is already noon and the market is still crowded. Zhang Xiaoyan suspects that there are not many people buying things here, but more people just joining in the fun.

Maybe because it was Chinese New Year, the items prepared in the market were relatively sufficient and in large supply. I ran to buy two fresh live chickens and two live ducks. Unfortunately, the space now can only be used for planting and not for raising animals. Otherwise, I would have a great feast in the future. I spent a few cents and asked the salesperson next to me to prepare the chickens and ducks.

Seeing that these people were busy buying things, Zhang Xiaoyan gave up the idea of ​​going to them to exchange seeds. After all, it was still early, and she could wait until spring. She left the market with the processed chicken and duck meat, found a secluded corner to put the things away when no one was paying attention, and then took a human-powered tricycle to the department store.

Just after Zhang Xiaoyan left the compound, the aunties and wives in the compound finished their work and gathered in groups to chat about household matters, especially about what had just happened in the compound.

At this time, He Yuzhu also came back from outside. He took a private job last night, and because it was too late, he could only rush back this morning.

He bought a lot of New Year's goods in large and small bags. After passing the inspection of the third uncle at the first gate, he entered the second gate and was seen by Qin Huairu. If she hadn't been pregnant, she wouldn't have had the privilege of looking at the scenery outside the window. It would be better to say that she had a sharp eye as she had planned it in advance. She immediately saw He Yuzhu carrying large and small bags of things into the middle door.

"I don't know what this extinct family has taken. Qin Huairu, go and have a look. If he can get some meat back for my eldest grandson, it will be a waste if he gives it to the two siblings."

After returning home, Zhang Cuihua hid the money she had snatched away. She was so happy that she had no memory of the embarrassment she had just experienced. When Qin Huairu saw He Yuzhu, she naturally saw him too. She opened her triangular eyes and instructed her daughter-in-law.

"Mom, this is not good! It's New Year's Day, and what happened just now..."

For the sake of her own reputation, Qin Huairu had to pretend. When she heard her mother-in-law's words, she immediately spoke softly and looked embarrassed.

"Why are you so ignorant? Hurry up and go, we'll have lunch soon. Doesn't He Yuzhu treat you as a sister? What's wrong with you, a sister, asking your brother for something to eat?"

Jia Dongxu was lying on the kang and naturally heard the conversation between the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law. Seeing that his wife was a little unhappy, he immediately got angry, turned over and sat up and said impatiently.
