Restarting life by going to the countryside to support medical work

Chapter 90 Strange Man
"It's okay, Fan Chunmei. The child has a wind-heat cold. Don't worry. I'll cool him down first. He'll be fine in a while."

After comforting the young widow, Li Yancheng turned to Jin Wenning and said, "Ningning, go to the east room and get my acupuncture needle bag and alcohol cotton wool bottle."

"Okay, Dacheng."

Bai Jie, who was standing at the entrance, touched her friend with her arm. When Luo Min looked over, she asked silently, "Traditional Chinese Medicine?"

Understanding her lip shape, Luo Min didn't say anything, just nodded.

Bai Jie turned her head again to look at Li Yancheng with some surprise, and the curiosity on her face became even stronger.

When it comes to treating diseases with acupuncture, after three months of hard work in learning the inheritance in his head, Li Yancheng's acupuncture level is much different than before, and he can recognize acupuncture points faster and faster.

After Ningning got what he wanted and wiped the needle with alcohol cotton, he asked Fan Chunmei to hold the child upright, exposing the back of the head and neck, and then pull the clothes on the arms slightly upwards.

After the preparations were done, four acupuncture needles were inserted into the corresponding acupoints in three quick strokes: the Dazhui point, the Fengchi point, and the Waiguan point on the left and right forearms.

Dazhui belongs to the Du meridian, located at the back of the neck, on the posterior midline, and has the effect of clearing away heat and relieving exterior symptoms.

Fengchi belongs to the foot Shaoyang Gallbladder Meridian. It is located under the occipital bone at the back of the neck. It can dispel external wind and clear the head.

Waiguan acupoint is a double acupoint, one on each forearm. It belongs to the Shaoyang Sanjiao meridian and is located on the outer side of the forearm, at the midpoint of the gap between the ulna and the radius. It has the effect of dispelling exterior pathogens and clearing away heat, and is an important acupoint for reducing fever.

After inserting the acupuncture needles into the corresponding acupoints, Li Yancheng pulled Jin Zhihai outside to smoke a cigarette, leaving the room to the woman.

When he came back after finishing his cigarette, the blush on the child's face had subsided, and even the sweat on his forehead had disappeared. Xing Lihua touched the child's forehead just now, and it was no longer hot.

In fact, even Jin Zhihai and his wife were not very clear about how good Li Yancheng's medical skills were. They were very surprised to see that the fever had subsided after only a few minutes of acupuncture.

Fan Chunmei also touched the child's forehead in disbelief, and then touched her own.

When Li Yancheng came in, he was greeted by the surprised looks of the five women in the room, four large and one small.

"Why are you all looking at me like that? Is there something dirty on me?"

Startled by the stares of the women, he lowered his head to check himself. He was fine, his clothes were neatly and cleanly on, and he raised his hand to touch his hair.

"Puchi...Brother Dacheng, the sisters-in-law are looking at you because Xiao Junjun has recovered from the fever so quickly."

"It's normal that it's not burning. It would be troublesome if it was still burning."

Just because of this?

Hearing Ningning's words, he rolled his eyes speechlessly, walked over and sat opposite Fan Chunmei. Just as he was about to take the child's pulse again, the little guy woke up.

He didn't react when he saw his mother, and he didn't react when he saw Li Yancheng. But when he saw the needle in his arm, he didn't care whether it hurt or not, and burst into tears.

"Junjun, be good and don't cry. Oh... don't move your hands."

The child cried, but after hearing his mother tell him not to move his hands, he stayed still and behaved very well.

Seeing the child crying pitifully, Luo Min, who had been silent all the time, took out a piece of fruit candy from his shirt pocket, tore open the wrapping paper and handed it to the child's mouth.

"Gah..."

Sure enough, after seeing the candy, the little guy stopped crying immediately without even a moment's buffer. If it weren't for the tears on his face, you might not have realized that he had just cried.

The little guy didn't open his mouth to eat, but looked at his mother.

Fan Chunmei smiled shyly at Luo Min and thanked him. She then reached out to take the fruit candy with the wrapper already removed, held it in her hand, and put it to her son's mouth for him to lick with his tongue.

You can't put such a big piece of candy directly into a child's mouth. If he swallows it accidentally, it will be troublesome.

Luo Min shook his head, his face still calm and composed, with a hint of smile in his eyes.

"Okay, it's not a big problem. I'll prescribe some medicine. You can get it from anywhere tomorrow. Add some sugar after boiling it. Otherwise, the child may not drink it well. Once a day for three days. When you get back, wipe the child's body with a warm towel."

After taking the patient's pulse again, Li Yancheng did not rush to remove the needle. Instead, he took out a pen and paper from the drawer and prescribed some medicine.

He handed the prescription to Fan Chunmei, gave her some instructions, and then removed the needle from the child.

Maybe because of the candy, the child didn’t cry this time. He just stared at Li Yancheng with big eyes and hummed twice.

I guess from today onwards, this kid won't be happy when he sees him again.

"Thank you, Dr. Li. Thank you, Dr. Li."

Letting the child sit on her lap, Fan Chunmei expressed her gratitude while freeing one hand to take out two cents from her trouser pocket and put it on the table.

"Doctor Li, this is the consultation fee. I don't know if it's enough..."

"Okay, keep the money." Before she could finish her words, Li Yancheng waved his hand to interrupt her.

"Just go back and get me two eggs. I happen to be out of eggs. I want to eat fried eggs tomorrow morning."

He couldn't do this without charging for the consultation. It would be a bit embarrassing to collect money directly, so giving him something in exchange would be the best option.

Xing Lihua saw that Fan Chunmei was a little embarrassed to take the money on the table, so she just picked it up and put it in her hand.

"Okay, Chunmei, since the child is fine now, take him back to rest. Remember what Dacheng just said."

"This..." Fan Chunmei looked at the money in her hand and could only thank Li Yancheng again.

"You're welcome. Remember to bring me the eggs, or I won't have anything to eat tomorrow morning."

He said that on purpose. How could there not be any eggs? He had no less than 200 eggs in his warehouse, and he couldn't finish them in one day or half a year.

Only by saying this will Fan Chunmei no longer feel embarrassed.

"I'll bring it to you right away."

The patient was seen, the child was fine, and there was no need for help, so those who needed to go back to their rooms started to leave.

When Luo Min turned around, she looked at Li Yancheng deeply. She thought this man was quite strange. It was not that he was greedy for money. Two cents could buy three eggs and he still had to pay for the change. He didn't want money, only two eggs, so he couldn't really be said to be greedy for money.

Although he is not greedy for money, he even charges consultation fees for treating the neighbor's children. He just changes his tactics. He is really a man that is hard to see through.

Before leaving, Jin Zhihai patted Li Yancheng's arm and said, "You should go to bed early too. Don't make your clothes. You are not in a hurry to wear them. Don't stay up so late at night."

"Go to bed now. I'm sleepy too."

"Let's go back"

"See you tomorrow, Dacheng."

"See you tomorrow"
