The surgery perford on Madam He last ti was successful, but further integration of traditional Chinese and Western dicine in her treatnt will still require six more months.
During this period, the patient’s condition may change; it can beco acute or chronic, mild or severe. The dication required at each stage varies, so she still needs to provide them with specific prescriptions.
Although she does not want to forgive the He Family nor have any dealings with them, since she has already started the treatnt, she must complete it thoroughly, otherwise, it would not align with her ancestors’ teachings or the spiritual energy she has expended.
Nianyang went directly to Ma Shu, who was responsible for Madam He’s follow-up treatnt, and handed over a thick notebook of prescriptions she had carefully compiled in the evenings, detailing dosages for each stage.
Ma Shu, seeing the densely written pages, could tell the effort involved and couldn’t help but sigh, "Divine Doctor Gu, you’re so young yet possess such magnanimity, even I can’t compare to half of your qualities!"
If it had been him, he wouldn’t have wanted to deal with the He Family at all by now, but Nianyang was able to set aside past grievances and arrange everything clearly for them.
Nianyang smiled and said, "Doctor Ma, you flatter , it’s just a simple task, and besides, having accepted the He Family’s remuneration, I should naturally see things through properly."
With eyes shining, Ma Shu said, "To be honest, I have a humble request: I wish to learn from Divine Doctor Gu how to treat aplastic anemia."
Nianyang’s eyes curved with a smile, "Of course that’s not a problem, but Doctor Ma, I suppose you wish to learn more than just this particular illness from ?"
Ma Shu scratched his head and chuckled, "Divine Doctor Gu, you’re insightful; you can probably tell that I’m very interested in traditional Chinese dicine as well, and even feel it surpasses Western dicine. I wish to delve into Chinese dicine with you."
"Doctor Ma, that’s not quite accurate. Traditional Chinese dicine is a culture, while Western dicine is a science. One targets the root, the other the symptoms; both have their strengths. It’s a mistake to laud Western dicine over Chinese dicine just because the latter has declined. The correct direction for the future of dicine should be the integration of both."
"You’re right, I was being shortsighted and indecisive," Ma Shu admitted with a modest smile.
"Doctor Ma, I can see you’re genuinely passionate about advancing dicine. Frankly, I’m going to Pingjing for university next sester and plan to open a Chinese dicine clinic. If you’re interested, you can help manage it then."
This was initially why Nianyang chose to assist Ma Shu with Madam He’s treatnt.
She had long recognized Ma Shu’s serious and ticulous attitude towards dicine. If she wanted to promote traditional Chinese dicine, she couldn’t do it alone; she needed partners. Moreover, running a Chinese dicine clinic while attending school wouldn’t leave her any ti to manage it, and Ma Shu would be an excellent helper!
"Really? I’d be honored!"
Ma Shu eagerly agreed, truly passionate about dicine, as healing and saving lives is what he desires most.
Devoted to his dical career, he began working at the hospital imdiately after graduating. For years, he focused on dical research, remaining unmarried well into his thirties—dicine was his only spouse.
However, his abilities were limited, and in recent years, he hit a bottleneck, unable to progress or heal certain patients, causing him more anguish than the patients themselves, yet he was helpless.
He had felt powerless and considered leaving the hospital several tis until he witnessed Nianyang’s dical skills, which genuinely impressed him and reignited his passion for dicine.
He had a feeling that learning traditional Chinese dicine from Nianyang would lead to accomplishnts in dicine alongside her in the future.
He would then have no regrets in this lifeti.
