Reborn as the Savior of a Short-lived Father and Son

Chapter 31: Were you nervous just now?

"Shao Wei!"

As soon as Gu Qinghe finished speaking, Shao Wei stood beside her, kicked the servant who came up to pull her out of the door, and looked at the Duke's wife coldly, "I don't see who dares to touch the person invited by this general!"

At this moment, he could not care about anything else. Gu Qinghe raised his hand and pointed, "Hurry up and get everyone out. If we delay any longer, even if the Golden Immortal comes, it will be useless."

Since it concerns the old lady's life, how could the wife of the Duke dare to be careless? Although she was suspicious of Gu Qinghe, she also knew that Shao Wei was a cautious person. Besides, everyone in the Duke's Mansion could see that he cared about the old lady, so she would not harm the old lady.

Thinking of this, she shouted, "All of you go out. I'll stay here and watch. Since you're a doctor, there's no reason for you to not be able to see patients while you're practicing medicine."

Shao Wei looked over and Gu Qinghe nodded. Without bothering to care about other people coming out, he hurried forward to help the old lady feel her pulse.

The wife of the Duke was standing nearby. Although she was still nervous, the seriousness on Gu Qinghe's face made her breathe more lightly.

She watched Gu Qinghe take the old lady's pulse for a while, and after he let go of her hand, he took out the silver needle from the medicine box without hesitation.

"Ma'am, press it for me."

The Duke's wife was stunned. "What?"

"Help me press the old lady's arm. The needle may be painful in this acupuncture point. Please press it tightly. Remember not to let the old lady struggle."

The Duke's wife had never done such a thing before, but she didn't dare to delay for a while, so she had to bite the bullet and follow Gu Qinghe's instructions to hold down the old lady's arm.

Gu Qinghe inserted the needle very quickly. Before the Duke's wife could react, the old lady started to struggle violently, so she quickly held her down.

Fortunately, as soon as the second needle was injected, the old lady's struggle stopped immediately.

The Duke's wife looked up and saw that the old lady's purple complexion had eased, her rapid breathing in her throat had gradually slowed down, and her pain had obviously eased.

I was delighted, but I saw that Gu Qinghe's expression was still serious, with beads of sweat on his forehead.

He opened his mouth to say something but quickly took it back, fearing that the sound would disturb Gu Qinghe.

While the two were busy inside, the imperial physician sent by the Duke to the palace also arrived.

The Duke heaved a sigh of relief when the old doctor arrived. "Quick, take the old doctor in."

Shao Wei took a big step and stood at the door, looking at the Duke, "Doctor Gu is already inside treating grandma, you can't go in now."

The Duke was so angry that veins popped out. "What do you mean Doctor Gu or not? I think you have grown wings and are rebellious. Your father can't discipline you, but I won't indulge you at all. If your grandmother gets into trouble today because of your obstruction, I will never forgive you!"

With his fists clenched at his sides, Shao Wei refused to give in no matter what the Duke said.

Inside was his beloved grandmother, and no one wanted his grandmother to be safe and sound more than he did, but since he had chosen to believe in Gu Qinghe, he could not back down even a little bit.

She was giving acupuncture in there and couldn't make any mistakes. How could he let anyone in to disturb her at a time like this?

Gu Qinghe didn't hear any of the noisy noise outside. All her attention was focused on the old lady.

The old lady had been ill for some time. She remembered that Aunt He in her previous life had told her that the old Duke had died at a young age. At that time, the Duke's Mansion was full of old and young people, and it was all supported by the old lady.

It was precisely because of this that the old lady suffered from so many illnesses, and even after so many years of treatment, there was no effect.

There were beads of sweat on Gu Qinghe's forehead, not because she was nervous, but because she was worried and scared.

The fear and Shao Wei's trust in her made her feel more stressed.

After an incense stick of time passed, the Duke had completely lost his patience. Just as he was about to ask Shao Wei to move aside, Gu Qinghe walked out.

The pale face startled the Duke, and he rushed in with the old doctor without asking any questions.

Gu Qinghe felt a little dizzy in front of his eyes, perhaps because he was a little anxious when he stood up just now.

Pulling Shao Wei's sleeve, he closed his eyes and relaxed for a while, then opened his eyes after a while, "Don't you want to go in and take a look?"

"Is everything okay?"

"It's nothing serious for now, but the old lady's illness can't be cured in a day or two. During this period, she needs to be given an acupuncture injection every three days, and the follow-up treatment will continue depending on the effect."

She pursed her lips and said, "But I can't guarantee that I can cure the old lady's illness. Maybe I can only alleviate the symptoms."

Shao Wei looked at the cold sweat on her forehead and her pale face, and suddenly asked, "Were you nervous just now?"

Gu Qinghe was startled, but did not deny it. He nodded calmly, "I am very nervous. I am afraid of disappointing General Shao's trust."

After saying that, she looked towards the inner room and said, "I'll go back first and come back tomorrow to check on the old lady. You can go in and take a look too."

"I'll let Gao Cun take you there."

"Ah."

After Gu Qinghe left, Shao Wei went into the inner room.

The old lady's expression had become relaxed. The old doctor was taking her pulse, and the Marquis's wife was describing to the Duke the scene of Gu Qinghe's acupuncture for the old lady, as well as every acupuncture point.

The old doctor was so nervous that he broke into a cold sweat. "This young doctor is really bold. I don't even dare to insert needles into this acupuncture point."

The old doctor raised his goatee and looked very happy. "The young doctor is still here. I will have a discussion with her later."

The Duke cleared his throat and said, "The imperial physician said that mother is fine now, right?"

"It's fine for now, but I've been studying the old lady's illness for some years. The old lady is old, so many medicines must be used with caution. I did think of acupuncture before, but there are too many acupoints involved, and I'm not good at it. It's really because of my lack of ability that the old lady has suffered for so many years."

The old doctor was a little embarrassed when talking about this, but then she became happy again, "Today's young doctor is very good at acupuncture. The acupuncture points she inserted are tricky and dangerous, which is enough to show her superb medical skills. I believe the old lady's illness can be cured."

The old lady was old, and the people in the Duke's Mansion had already let it go, thinking that even if the disease could not be cured, it would be enough as long as the old lady's pain could be alleviated.

However, after hearing what the old doctor said, the Duke's confidence increased immediately. He looked at Shao Wei awkwardly, "Whose family was that young doctor just now?"

I have never heard of any official in the capital having a daughter with such superb medical skills.

Tomorrow he would definitely bring some gifts to the young doctor's home to express his gratitude.

Shao Wei had a blank expression on his face, as if he hadn't heard what the Duke said at all. The Duke was so angry that he blew his beard and glared, and was about to lose his temper when his wife stopped him.

"Okay, let Wei'er stay here with mother."

The Duke's wife pulled the Duke out. The old doctor was afraid of the evil spirit in Shao Wei, so he naturally followed the two of them out.
