Merchant and doctor

Chapter 1926 Biyuan Villa
The boy finally recovered, with two female caregivers by his side, and his grandmother and uncle following behind him downstairs to Bian Mu's clinic.

I took his pulse again.

A knowing smile gradually appeared on Bian Mu's face.

"Hmm... much better, congratulations to you both! The child has passed a critical stage. This treatment was a bit expensive, we'll charge 1. And these two ladies' wages probably haven't been settled yet! Half a day's work, 300 each. Auntie! Give them a call and have someone come to the front desk to pay 10600. Our Nurse Ye will exchange the money for these two ladies in cash and issue an official invoice, 300 each!" Without any politeness, Bian Mu explained the fee schedule with a smile.

They looked at each other for a while, the boy's grandmother was obviously quite surprised and didn't know what to say. She could only take out her old-fashioned mobile phone and dial a number. A few seconds later, the call connected and the old lady chatted quietly with a kind person outside for a while.

The boy's grandmother hung up the phone.

"They agreed to pay, but... they asked me to bring them a breakdown of the charges, is that alright?" the old lady asked cautiously.

"No problem! We're a legitimate medical institution here, so we'll definitely issue the proper paperwork." As she spoke, Bian Mu accompanied the boy's grandmother out to greet Nurse Ye.

After all the formalities were completed, Bian Muke politely saw the group out.

Before parting, Bian Mu called the boy's grandmother aside and whispered a few words to her.

"Auntie! No matter how kind they are, they can only pay for this treatment at most. Next time you try to contact them, you might not even be able to get through on the phone," Bian Mu guessed in a low voice.

Upon hearing this, the old lady's face immediately turned somewhat unpleasant.

"Then... what are we going to do from now on?!" The old lady was getting a little anxious.

"It's alright, just come as usual. I'll still treat the boy normally. As for the cost, don't worry. Our clinic has free clinics every year. Your family is in financial difficulty, so consider it as helping us complete our poverty alleviation project. After each treatment, just go to Nurse Ye and fill out a few forms, and that's it."

"Will it work?" the old lady asked hesitantly.

"No problem! In this era of economic boom, we can't let your family fall behind, right? Don't worry! Your grandson will only get better and better. There are some things I can't say in front of the child's uncle, but as the child's grandmother, you just need to keep that in mind. When other people have children, the baby has no relation to the birth mother from the moment it's born. Your grandson is special, which is why he's been through so much. The acupuncture I used is called 'Soul Separation,' which is to cut off the root cause. Once the root is cut off, he will gradually get better. The next time will be in six weeks. You can take the train over, and I will adjust the child's center of gravity. I will use the power of acupuncture and herbal medicine to help him find the center of gravity in his waist again. He can practice more at home, and he will gradually get much better."

Upon hearing this, the boy's grandmother was overjoyed.

"Dr. Bian is truly a benefactor to our family. We are poor and have no way to express our gratitude, so we can only go to the temple to pray for your well-being every year. I know a little about this, so please forgive my ignorance." The old lady was at a loss for words.

"Doctors and patients are all one family. Don't worry about it. Go back and feed your child well. Even if you're short on money, you can always get some free-range eggs, good milk, long yams, loach, and eels, right? Feed your child well. He's at the age where he's growing. Leave the matter of rebuilding his body to me. You can take care of his nutrition. This child is actually quite gifted. If you raise him well, he might even be able to take care of you in your old age!"

"Really?! Thank you so much, Dr. Bian! I don't know what to say..."

"It's getting late, hurry back home and get some rest. Those kind people can only be relied upon once, they might not be able to help again. I suggest... you don't let them take you home, just go to the station and buy a ticket yourself. It's not much money, you have some money on you, right?"

"Yes, yes! No need for you to trouble yourself, Dr. Bian. I'm getting on in years, and I know a thing or two about things... We'll say goodbye over there and head back now. I'll have to trouble you with your help in the future."

"Don't mention it! Be careful on the road! Also... when we get back to town, if any of the gossipy people ask how this illness was treated or what it is, just give them a vague answer and don't tell them the truth! There are some things you might not know. Treating this kind of illness is very taxing on our bodies. I'm just taking advantage of my youth. I'll be fine after a good rest tonight. If it were someone else, they might have developed a chronic condition!"

"I understand, I understand! You're really alright? What do you mean... We couldn't possibly let you suffer along with us..."

"Don't worry! Would I really jump into a fire pit myself? I must have my reasons for taking this on. We're not related, and I'm not some saint. Don't worry, it's really nothing!" "I don't know what to say. Don't worry, when we get back to town, I won't reveal a single word."

"Hehe...it's not that serious. It's better to say less. Have a safe trip!"

"Then I'll head back, thank you Dr. Bian!" With that, the old lady caught up with the four people in front of her and headed towards the open-air parking lot.

……

At lunchtime, Bian Mu was sitting under the window drinking water when Luo Zhanqi finished eating and hurriedly walked in from outside.

"I recorded something on my phone and sent it to your email. Take a look when you have some free time."

"A video of those guys in the car?"

"Yes! The old lady didn't let them see her off; she called a taxi herself and went to the station. She's quite a strong-willed old lady," Luo Zhanqi replied with a smile.

"That's good. I'll ask someone to investigate those guys later and see what their relationship is with the Lei family. You've been working hard all morning, go and rest!"

"Is there anything else?" Luo Zhanqi asked with a smile.

"It's alright now. I'll go out for some porridge later, and then I need to go back and get some sleep."

"Then I'll go upstairs." With that, Luo Zhanqi slowly went upstairs to rest.

After getting ready, Bian Mu was about to leave when Wen Boyong sauntered in from outside the door.

"You haven't eaten yet, have you? My treat! Biyuan Villa, with its peach orchard and farm-style dishes, has a unique flavor! Come and try it."

"Great! Are there any hot springs over there?"

"Yes! Qingquangou, a volcanic rock valley, the water there is crystal clear, like a mirror. I've been wanting to go there with you for a long time."

"Great! I was diagnosed with a rare disease today, and it exhausted me. I'll go soak in a hot spring to relax. I'll just have some steamed buns and vegetables, and a bowl of porridge will do."

"Look at what you're saying! We should at least eat some delicacies. Let's go!" Wen Boyong was overjoyed to see Bian Mu agree so readily.

Bian Muming knew that the old man had something to discuss. He was indeed exhausted today, so he decided to soak in the hot spring first and then talk about it.

……

The hot spring was even more exquisite and pleasant than Wen Boyong had described; I even fell asleep while soaking in it...

When I woke up, Wen Boyong had already arranged the dishes almost completely. I took a sniff and it smelled delicious! You know what, that's one of Wen Boyong's good qualities – he's so considerate!
Don't think too much, let's have a good meal first! With that thought, Bian Mu went to the dressing room next door to change her clothes, then sat down at the table and chatted and laughed with Wen Boyong until she was half full.
