Siheyuan, Kaiju replaced He Yuzhu as the chef

Victoria Song led a well-dressed old lady into the yard.

She glanced at Lu Qing inadvertently and found that he was talking to Liu Haizhong.

When she saw Lu Qing, Victoria Song couldn't help feeling a little embarrassed.

She was still upset about what happened a few days ago and was worried that she had left a frivolous impression on Lu Qing.

She looked up at the newly renovated clinic, walked up to it and said, "This is Aunt Liu, my mother's friend. She has been feeling unwell lately and would like you to help her."

Lu Qing took a look at the woman standing in front of him. She was about fifty years old. Although her clothes were not conspicuous, at first glance, the texture of the fabric was obviously better than that of ordinary people.

In this era of scarce resources, anyone who could wear such clothes must be of extraordinary status.

He ignored Liu Haizhong and said, "Please come in and sit down and chat."

The three of them entered the consulting room. Song Qian looked around, secretly surprised.

In just a few days, Lu Qing managed to organize the clinic in perfect order, and the entire layout was very professional.

She guided Lin Guilan to sit in front of the examination table, while Lu Qing sat in the doctor's seat and began to ask, "Are you feeling unwell recently?"

Lin Guilan looked at Lu Qing. Seeing that he was so young, she couldn't help but feel a little doubtful: "Can such a young doctor cure my illness?" She turned her head to look at Song Qian, and seeing her nod, Lin Guilan felt a little relieved and started to talk about her own situation.

"Recently I've been feeling chest tightness, difficulty breathing, and my heart rate has often quickened," Lin Guilan said truthfully.

Victoria Song then added: "I took her to the hospital for a detailed examination. There was nothing wrong with her lungs and heart. Other doctors couldn't find any cause either."

Song Qian even organized a special consultation for this purpose, but there was still no conclusion, which is why she brought people to Lu Qing.

She vaguely felt that perhaps Lu Qing could give a different answer.

After listening to this, Lu Qing nodded and said, "I understand. I'll prescribe you a dose of medicine. Go back and take it for a few days and try it."

Lin Guilan frowned and asked in confusion, "You haven't even told me what the disease is, and you want to prescribe medicine?"

Victoria Song was also a little puzzled. Usually Lu Qing would explain the illness in detail, so why didn't he say more today?

Lu Qing smiled and looked at Lin Guilan, and said, "Your living conditions are much better than most people. In this situation, what else is there to make you depressed? If you encounter troubles, don't hold them in. Be more relaxed, and everything will pass."

Lin Guilan was stunned and looked a little surprised, not understanding what Lu Qing meant.

Victoria Song was equally confused and couldn't help asking, "What do you mean by that?"

Liu Haizhong, who was standing nearby, saw this and sneered, thinking that this was just nonsense. The patient came to treat the illness, but he was talking nonsense.

Liu Haizhong watched coldly, waiting to see Lu Qing make a fool of himself.

Seeing Song Qian and Lin Guilan looking confused, Lu Qing smiled and said, "She has typical depression. Don't you see that?"

"Depression?" When Song Qian heard this word, the vague memory in her mind was suddenly activated. She thought for a moment and finally remembered.

"Oh, I've seen this word in a foreign medical journal." She was suddenly shocked that this disease has not been widely recognized in China and many doctors know little about it.

"You mean... depression, anxiety, and in serious cases, the kind of illness that may even lead to suicide?" Victoria Song asked in disbelief.

When Lu Qing heard that Song Qian could accurately say "depression", he felt somewhat satisfied and nodded and said, "Yes, you are right."

Song Qian looked at him in disbelief, then turned to look at Lin Guilan: "Auntie has a harmonious family and lives a good life, how could she get such a disease?"

Lu Qing shook his head slightly and explained, "Family and living conditions are certainly important, but depression is not simply determined by the environment. It is caused by some pathological changes in the brain, which leads to negative emotions in patients. No matter how good the family is, if a major change occurs and the emotions are disturbed, it is easy to aggravate the condition."

At this time, Song Qian seemed to have realized something, and recalled that Lin Guilan's son suddenly ran away from home a few months ago, followed a woman to another place, and there has been no news of him since.

This kind of thing was indeed a big blow to her.

She comforted him softly, "Auntie, take some medicine and take care of yourself, and you will slowly feel better."

Lin Guilan's face was a little stiff. She seemed confused about her sudden illness. She frowned and looked at Lu Qing and asked, "Is what you said true?"

Lu Qing nodded and said, "Why not give it a try? I'll prescribe some medicine for you. Go home and take it for three days. If you find it effective, come back to me. If you find it's not useful, I'll double your money."

When Song Qian heard what he said, she was immediately surprised.

Even when prescribing medicine in the hospital, doctors will not easily make a 100% guarantee. At most, they will say that it can improve symptoms.

He not only guaranteed the efficacy, but also directly offered to double the money back. This confidence was unbelievable.

Lin Guilan was obviously shocked, but in the end, she nodded and said calmly: "Okay, since Xixi brought me here, I will trust you this time. If it doesn't work after taking it, you have to return my money."

Victoria Song smiled and agreed: "Auntie, I will apologize to you even if I can't cure it."

Lin Guilan sighed, looking a little worried.

Lu Qingze selected herbs from the medicine cabinet. This time he did not use his extraction skills, but instead relied on his knowledge of pharmacology to prepare a prescription.

Although the symptoms are complicated, they are not to the point where supernatural means must be used.

After he handed the medicine package to Lin Guilan, Lin Guilan asked, "How much is this medicine?"

"Five dollars." Lu Qing answered directly.

"5 yuan?" Lin Guilan frowned slightly, "This is a bit expensive..."

Lu Qing smiled and emphasized: "If it doesn't work, I'll return the money."

Lin Guilan hesitated for a moment, and finally took out the money, "Okay then."

Song Qian helped her stand up and prepared to leave the courtyard. Before leaving, she looked back at Lu Qing and nodded slightly, as if she approved of him.

Lu Qing sat back in his chair, looked down at the five dollars in his hand, and felt quite satisfied.

It was undoubtedly a good sign that the clinic had business coming in on the first day of opening. Although the patient was introduced by Victoria Song, it was still a good start.

He leaned back in his chair, thinking that his life now was easier and more prestigious than when he was a chef.

Just as he was immersed in his thoughts, Liu Haizhong, who had been watching from the side, suddenly came over and sat opposite him.

Liu Haizhong stretched out his hand and said with a provocative smile: "Lu Qing, since you are such a good doctor, why don't you help me too?"

Lu Qing raised his eyebrows, "Second Master, don't you not believe in my medical skills?"

Liu Haizhong snorted and deliberately provoked him: "I want to see how powerful you are. Do you dare to take my disease?"

Lu Qing narrowed his eyes slightly, thinking that Liu Haizhong had other ideas, but he was not afraid and said calmly: "Okay, Second Uncle, then I'll show you."

There was a sly gleam in the eyes behind his bangs.
