This was already the second day, and tomorrow would be the third day. They couldn’t afford to wait for another three days.
“Doctor Zhang, is there any way to suppress the spread of the poison?” Ying Zi pleaded.
Doctor Zhang shook his head and said, “No. The only way is to create the antidote.”
Ying Zi and Gu Sanniang had no choice but to leave.
However, before they left, Doctor Zhang seemed to remind her earnestly, “Xiao Ying, the person who poisoned you most likely has the antidote. You should think about who you’ve offended. They should be able to help you quicker than I could.”
Ying Zi, who had turned around, stopped in her tracks. Her face, which was half-lowered, was twisted with a touch of ferocity and hatred.
…
Just like the day before, Lin Yuelan gave Lin Mingqing a Tui Na massage and then an acupuncture treatment.
Lin Yuelan put away her medical equipment and said to Lin Yiwei, “Grandpa village chief, I will perform acupuncture on uncle Mingqing again tomorrow and stretch his bones.”
Lin Yiwei was very touched. “Okay, okay. Thank you, Lan ‘Er!”
Lin Yuelan shook her head, “Grandpa village chief, this is what I should do!” Then she added, “Uncle Mingqing, you can sit up after the acupuncture tomorrow. You don’t have to lie on the bed all the time.”
Lin Yiwei’s eyes brightened when he heard that. He said with joy, “really? That’s great!”
When Lin Mingqing heard that, his face was also filled with joy. He asked, “Lan ‘Er, does that mean that I don’t have to…” At this point, his face turned red, and he was very shy and embarrassed. He was going to ask if he could stop using diapers from tomorrow onwards. But he couldn’t bring himself to say it.
Lin Yuelan understood what he meant. She nodded and said, “yes. However, you have to be careful. Otherwise, you might strain your bones. If that happens, I’ll have to push the bones back, and uncle Mingqing has to suffer unnecessarily!”
Lin Yuelan’s words were very clear. Lin Yiwei immediately agreed, “yes, girl, we’ll definitely be gentle.”
Lin Yuelan didn’t say anything else.
She packed her things and left Lin Yiwei’s house, then returned to her own home.
As soon as she entered the courtyard, she heard Doctor Zhang say loudly to her, “girl, you have to make me another pot of braised pig’s feet!” He had finished all of them yesterday.
Lin Yuelan looked at the completely empty basin on the stone table. She had some leftovers yesterday. She planned to heat them up for Doctor Zhang later.
After Lin Yuelan put the medicine box back in the house, she came out to clean up the dishes and said, “there’s no more for today! You have to eat vegetables today!”
Doctor Zhang was unwilling. “Why?” he asked loudly.
Lin Yuelan rolled her eyes at him and said, “Grandmaster, you’re not getting younger. It’s not good for your health to eat so much meat. Your blood pressure will rise. You’re a doctor yourself. Do you think it’s okay to keep eating meat like this?”
When Doctor Zhang heard this, he wanted to defend himself, but Lin Yuelan immediately waved her hand and said, “stop! Don’t play the elderly card with me. In the future, when I meet master, I’ll tell him about your endless meat diet. Do you think he’ll like that?”
Doctor Zhang, who was not afraid of anything but his own disciple, immediately became listless when he heard that.
He immediately said in a fawning manner, “Hey, girl, I’m your Grandmaster. You have to give me some face. If your master finds out about this, he’ll punish me again!”
Lin Yuelan nodded and said, “fine, Grandmaster. If you don’t want me to complain to master, you have to follow the diet I design for you. Otherwise…” The threat lingered.
Even though he knew that this was a threat, Doctor Zhang was helpless.
In order to be in his disciple’s good books, he had to succumb to the threat.
Zhang Zhongjing, the famous Medical Saint, was probably the most cowed master in history. He was afraid of his disciple and the threat of his grand-disciple.
Doctor Zhang was still unwilling to give up. He weakly suggested, “girl, can I at least have a meal of meat today? You have to know that a mix of vegetables and meat is a good diet.”
This was already the second day, and tomorrow would be the third day. They couldn’t afford to wait for another three days.
“Doctor Zhang, is there any way to suppress the spread of the poison?” Ying Zi pleaded.
