10: Chapter 10: Madam Li’s Waist Injury 10: Chapter 10: Madam Li’s Waist Injury Mr.
Li couldn’t help but look at Zhao Wenxuan and said, “Young Master Zhao, can you really heal my wife’s back injury?”
Zhao Wenxuan took two steps forward and said to Mr.
Li, “Though my dical skills cannot be compared to my grandfather’s, after years of dedicated teaching, I’ve mastered eighty percent of the Zhao family’s Thirteen Needles.
I am confident that I can use the Thirteen Needles to have Madam Li walking within a week.”
As soon as Zhao Wenxuan finished speaking, Mr.
Li’s expression couldn’t hide his delight: “Young Master Zhao, can you really have my wife walking in a week?”
“Dad, Wenxuan cos from a family of renowned doctors and has been taught by Elder Zhao since childhood.
He is now one of the youngest famous doctors in Huadu.
Wenxuan will definitely ensure Mom recovers soon,” Madam Li praised Zhao Wenxuan with a smile towards Mr.
Li.
Mr.
Li nodded: “Young Master Zhao, if you can heal my wife’s back injury and have her walking in a week, I will certainly reward you generously.”
At this mont, Madam Li gave Zhao Wenxuan a look, and he imdiately understood.
Zhao Wenxuan said to Mr.
Li, “Grandpa Li, there’s no need for a reward, but if I heal Madam Li’s back injury and have her walking in a week, I hope Grandpa Li can agree to one thing for .”
Mr.
Li, curious, said, “What is it you want to agree to, Young Master Zhao?”
Zhao Wenxuan glanced at Li Ruyan and said to Mr.
Li, “If I can cure Madam Li’s back injury, I hope you’ll allow to be with Ruyan.”
“No, Grandpa,” Li Ruyan almost imdiately said to Mr.
Li.
Mr.
Li frowned; he was indeed displeased with Zhao Wenxuan having other motives while treating his wife.
However, since his wife’s fall, she has suffered daily from the pain, which he truly couldn’t bear.
Zhao Wende’s request put him in a difficult position.
Mr.
Li did not imdiately respond.
Seeing Mr.
Li remain silent, Zhao Wende didn’t dare to say more.
Madam Li broke the silence, saying to Li Ruyan, “Ruyan, don’t you want your grandmother’s pain to heal soon?
Plus, Wenxuan cos from a prestigious family of doctors, young and capable, what’s not to like?”
Li Ruyan said aggrievedly, “Mom, I already have a boyfriend.”
“Ah Yu, don’t force Ruyan.
If curing my injury requires Ruyan to do sothing she doesn’t want, then I’d rather not treat this illness,” Madam Li firmly said to Madam Li from the bed.
“Mom, of course, your illness is most important, and I didn’t an for Ruyan to marry Young Master Zhao imdiately,” Madam Li softened her tone, not daring to anger Madam Li.
Zhao Wenxuan also took the opportunity to say to Mr.
Li, “Grandpa Li, Aunt is right.
I just want to get to know Ruyan better.”
Seeing Zhao Wenxuan taking a step back and not proposing marriage, Mr.
Li didn’t find it excessive.
Just as Mr.
Li was about to agree to Zhao Wenxuan’s request, suddenly, a voice opposed, “No, Ruyan already has a boyfriend; there’s no need for more understanding with Young Master Zhao.”
Everyone imdiately turned to the person speaking, only to find it was Lin Fei.
Li Ruyan was sowhat surprised; she didn’t expect Lin Fei to step up and speak for her at this ti.
Seeing Lin Fei objecting, Li Shang and his wife were both very angry.
Madam Li smiled coldly at Lin Fei and said, “Mr.
Lin, although you saved my daughter, for which I am very grateful, but now Ruyan’s grandmother is suffering from the pain, and Wenxuan is willing to treat her.
Please don’t obstruct, unless you can cure Ruyan’s grandmother’s pain?”
“Aunt, since you put it that way, I dare to offer to cure the old lady’s ailnt,” Lin Fei said calmly, neither angry nor upset.
After speaking, Lin Fei was about to step forward to check Madam Li’s back injury, but at that mont, Li Shang insisted, “No!
My mother’s back injury is severe, and she is elderly; I can’t allow just anyone to treat her; it’s practically playing with her life.”
“Dad, I was poisoned in Kunlun Mountain, and it was Lin Fei who cured .
Why would he treat her carelessly?” Li Ruyan argued to her father.
Li Shang snorted coldly, saying, “The old director of the First People’s Hospital couldn’t cure your grandmother’s back injury.
Mr.
Lin, you’re so young; did you ever attend dical school?”
Lin Fei answered truthfully, “Uncle, I indeed have not attended dical school, but my dical skills can still save lives.”
Li Ruyan silently scolded Lin Fei as a big fool; how could he admit to not attending dical school at this ti?
“Heh heh, indeed, a quack trying to pass off deception!” Li Shang said coldly.
Then he turned to Zhao Wenxuan, speaking kindly, “Wenxuan, please treat my mother.”
Zhao Wenxuan replied, “Yes, Uncle.”
Seeing Li Shang’s prejudice against him and unwillingness to let him treat Madam Li, Lin Fei said no more.
Treating illness should be consensual; since they weren’t willing, there was no point in causing a rift.
Zhao Wenxuan ca to the old lady’s bed, first taking her pulse, and then said to her, “Madam, could you lie on your side so I can check your back injury?”
Madam Li nodded, “Mm.”
Li Ruyan and Madam Li imdiately stepped forward to help the old lady gently turn to her side.
Zhao Wenxuan said to Madam Li, “Aunt, please lift the clothing on Madam Li’s back a bit; I want to see how bad the injury is.”
Madam Li agreed and gently lifted so of the clothing from the old lady’s back, revealing her bruised yet severely swollen back to everyone.
On the surface, the bruising on the old lady’s back was minimal, but the swelling was severe, seemingly not too serious.
A hint of relief appeared on Zhao Wenxuan’s face; he originally thought the old lady’s back injury was severe, but it seed just clearing the bruises and reducing inflammation would restore her to health.
With the addition of the Zhao family’s Thirteen Needles, a week would be enough for the old lady to get back on her feet.
Imdiately, he retrieved a small rectangular box from the pocket of his white suit, placed it on the table by the bed, and opened it to reveal a dozen fine needles as thin as a cow’s hair.
Zhao Wenxuan said to Mr.
Li and the Li couple, “I will now use the Zhao family’s Thirteen Needles to perform acupuncture on the lady.”
“Wenxuan, thank you,” the Li couple politely said to Zhao Wenxuan.
Zhao Wenxuan shook his head, “Uncle, Aunt, you’re too kind.”
Then Zhao Wenxuan requested a spirit lamp from the couple.
Li Shang imdiately instructed Uncle Zhong to fetch a spirit lamp.
