Forced to marry a disabled man in the countryside? I'll repay you tenfold!

Chapter 358 Saving Commander Li's Mother, Old Lady Xie!

She just got out of the hospital and got off the train when she fell ill again, and it's been going on for over ten hours since last night. The local clinic can't do anything about it either, saying they can't find any heart disease. My mother's illness... is there any cure at all?

Su Wanqing paused for a moment, then immediately understood.

Grandma Xie is physically healthy, but mentally unhealthy—she suffers from typical anxiety disorder, which affects the central and autonomic nervous systems, manifesting as a series of somatic symptoms such as palpitations, chest tightness, and difficulty breathing.

Depression is wanting to die; you might even commit suicide if you're not careful.

Anxiety disorder stems from a fear of death; the more anxious you are, the more afraid you become of death.

The power of suggestion is extremely strong. If you believe in yourself that you have heart disease, and this suggestion reaches a certain level, you will experience all the actual symptoms of heart disease.

These symptoms are not imagined, but real bodily reactions; the sensory experience is exactly the same as when the disease actually occurs.

Aunt Xie is clearly in this situation. Of course, she doesn't want to be like this; it's a problem with her nervous system.

There are currently no good drugs available in China to solve this problem.

However, Su Wanqing's acupuncture can relieve anxiety and relax the mind. Combined with psychological suggestion and vitamin supplementation, and with a little "hype", the problem can be solved.

Mental illnesses are more difficult to treat than physical illnesses.

Su Wanqing stopped, took out a set of silver needles, and quickly inserted them into dozens of acupoints, saying as she did so:

"The old lady does have heart disease, but it's quite rare, and it's normal that it can't be detected in domestic examinations at present."

Hehe, just kidding.

To treat this type of patient, you must first go along with her. Since she says she has heart disease, then acknowledge it; gain her trust first, rather than blindly denying it.

Sure enough, after she said that, Aunt Xie's expression improved considerably: "I knew it! Those were all quacks! My symptoms are so obvious, I must have heart disease! No wonder he's a miracle doctor! Is there any cure for me?"

Su Wanqing, with an injection in her arm, began receiving an IV drip:

"Your heart condition is quite special; it's complicated to treat and will cost a lot of money. However, although it's complicated, it's treatable. This injection is an imported, highly effective drug specifically for your type of heart disease. You'll need two injections a day, as well as IV fluids and a lot of oral medication. There will be three courses of treatment in total. The first course is..."

Su Wanqing started to lie and make things up.

There are only a few ways to treat anxiety disorders. Acupuncture can relax nerves by stimulating acupoints. Combined with Lingquan (a traditional Chinese medicine) and vitamins, it can greatly relieve severe anxiety.

This is just ordinary spring water, but it can nourish the nerves. The prescribed medicine is all vitamins, acupuncture soothes the nerves, and the spring water improves appetite—after eating a full meal, one's mood naturally improves.

Upon hearing Su Wanqing's words, Aunt Xie felt even more at ease, slapping her thigh and exclaiming:

"Hey, I knew it! The miracle doctor truly lives up to his name! After all that medicine, injections, IV drips, and so many treatments, plus acupuncture, my illness can finally be cured!"

What is she most afraid of right now?

What I fear most is that no tests will find anything wrong, what I fear most is that she won't get injections or medicine, what I fear most is that everyone will say she's perfectly healthy—but doesn't she know whether she's healthy or not?

When it gets really bad, it feels like you're going to die.

Those quack doctors!

Commander Li's eyes reddened with emotion: "We're not afraid of spending money, we're just afraid of not being able to cure it! As long as you, doctor, have a solution, we will definitely cooperate! You have no idea how much we've suffered these past few years, and finally, there's a cure!"

After Commander Li paid the money and treatment fees, Aunt Xie, who had just been suffering from an attack, felt her discomfort recede like a receding tide. She thought the doctor was truly amazing.

Moreover, she felt particularly safe now that she was right next to the miracle doctor, and she no longer felt uncomfortable at all.

Su Wanqing finished administering the injections: "You'll still feel hungry after these injections, so feel free to eat as much as you like. You'll be sleepy earlier tonight, so I've applied some calming acupuncture points to help you get a good night's sleep. Why don't you go and have some food first? I still have some patients to take care of here."

People with anxiety often have trouble sleeping at night, so she stimulated acupoints that promote sleep. Sleep can repair 80% of the problems and also nourish the nerves.

Aunt Xie immediately shook her head: "I'm not going anywhere, I'll just stay here with the miracle doctor! Oh dear, now that you mention it, I am indeed a little hungry—son, quickly go to the canteen and get me some food, I'm so hungry, get me a lot. I'll eat here."

What if she falls ill again after she leaves? She wouldn't dare.

Commander Li quickly replied, "Yes, I'll go to the canteen to get food right away." Since yesterday, his mother hadn't eaten much, and she usually had no appetite, so it was rare for her to feel hungry.

He asked for directions and walked away quickly.

Su Wanqing ignored the old woman.

People with severe anxiety feel reassured when a doctor is around; once they stop feeling anxious, they naturally get better.

She immediately took care of the others—any later, and people might really have died.

She pulled over a wounded man, the bald one, who had been riddled with bullets, and pushed him back, saying, "This one died before, let's find another one."

At this moment, Qin Xiao, who had been silent until now, stepped forward and said, "Wait a moment, sister-in-law. I just heard the gist of it from Secretary Liu, and I'm here to handle this matter."

He crouched down and examined him closely. "This man... is Liu Heizi, a wanted criminal on the Ministry of Public Security's blacklist! He's been committing crimes across several northwestern provinces, with several lives on his hands. I never expected him to end up here. He's finally caught this time, sister-in-law. You've indirectly rid the country of a scourge!"

His tone held a hint of surprise, "Tell me again, what happened?"

While dealing with the other people, Su Wanqing briefly explained what had happened.

None of these people had any fatal wounds, just a lot of blood loss. She quickly and forcefully stitched them up, put them on IV drips, and finished treating them.

After listening, Qin Xiao pondered for a moment.

This matter is simple to handle—the other party was a wanted criminal who committed an armed crime and was at serious fault. He was shot and killed during the crime, which falls under the category of legitimate self-defense.

In addition, Su Wanqing saved most of the people and provided evidence of their survival. When reporting the case, her younger brother and sister-in-law could be classified as "assisting in the capture of a major fugitive," which would not only be without fault but also meritorious. As for those who did not appear, naturally nothing can be caught now, but it is not a big problem.

He nodded, feeling reassured.

The rest of the people were mostly fine. Qin Xiao would record each one he revived and then begin questioning them.

However, most of these people were unaware of this:

"Huh? I didn't know what I was here for, I just took a hundred dollars."

"Right, they said they were arresting a woman, not killing her, right?"

"Anyway, we had just run over there when we were shot by an arrow from somewhere, and then we don't know what happened."

Qin Xiao's lips twitched—so these people who came to cause trouble for his sister-in-law were all wiped out as soon as they arrived. Although he was very curious about what kind of weapons his sister-in-law's friends had used, he also knew that he had to eliminate them first, and this matter had to be resolved peacefully!
