Su Pei and Su Yao immediately turned their eyes to Deng Jing, afraid of hearing a rejection.

Deng Jing said helplessly, "Then you must be obedient and not cause trouble for your grandparents, third uncle, and third aunt."

Deng Jing is very relieved that her niece has a good personality, and she also wants her two daughters, especially Yao Yao, to learn to be more lively from her.

Su Pei and Su Yao nodded repeatedly.

Lin Zhilan turned to Xu Yueyun and said, "Mom, why don't we let Second Brother and Second Sister-in-law go back to stay today? I'll take Second Brother's pulse while I'm at it."

Give it to peach and give it to Li.

Su Jue is good to his child, so Lin Zhilan is willing to consider things more for him.

"Okay!" Xu Yueyun agreed without hesitation.

She was a patient and knew best about the changes in her body.

She used to always feel short of breath, but after Lin Zhilan gave her acupuncture these past two days, she feels much better and can go out without any problems.

"Xiao Jue, come back with us and let Zhi Lan take a look at you."

Just as Su Jue was about to refuse, Deng Jing said, "Okay, then I'll trouble Zhilan."

Su Jue paused for a moment, then remained silent.

No matter how much resentment Deng Jing felt towards Su Jue, it couldn't compare to her concern for his health.

In the past two years, Su Jue has become increasingly thin and looks older than his peers. His hair has also turned much whiter, which worries Deng Jing.

Everyone had almost finished eating.

Xu Yueyun nudged Su Bingcheng, "Go pay the bill."

Su Bingcheng laughed and said, "Shopkeeper, where would I get the money?"

"If you don't have money, how can you spare four idiots?" Xu Yueyun sneered.

Su Bingcheng suddenly realized that his secret stash of money had been exposed, and had no choice but to obediently pay the bill.

Linlin frowned. "Grandma, are we leaving?"

Xu Yueyun: "Yes, you're not full?"

Linlin said anxiously, "My dad hasn't come yet, and he hasn't eaten."

Lin Zhilan and Jiang Chengzhou, who were putting on their coats, exchanged a glance, feeling somewhat guilty.

It seems they both forgot about Su Lang.

Xu Yueyun hurriedly asked Su Bingcheng to pack half a duck, and Linlin was finally relieved.

When the group arrived home, Su Lang had already returned.

He was sitting in the living room, his coat in front of him, cleaning the mud off it.

Hearing the door open, Su Lang looked up. "You're all back?"

Lin Zhilan handed him the packed roast duck, "I brought this for you. Mom's treating, Dad's paying."

Su Lang smiled and asked, "Dad, have you run out of your secret stash of money?"

Su Bingcheng glared at him irritably, "Go eat your duck!"

Which pot does not open which pot.

Lin Zhilan sat down beside him and opened the roast duck for him. "Is Aunt Yu alright?"

Su Lang sighed, "Aunt Yu's son has trouble walking. This morning he was trying to help Aunt Yu gather firewood when he tripped and fell. He had to be taken to the hospital."

Upon hearing this, Xu Yueyun quickly asked, "Were you badly hurt?"

"It's a fracture; you need surgery."

"Is it that serious? How much will it cost?"

Su Lang was fed a bite of roast duck by his wife. "Aunt Yu said she has money, but she can't come to help out at home for a while."

"That's alright, I'll go see if there's anything I can do to help."

Su Lang said helplessly, "Mom, if you go to the hospital, Aunt Yu will worry about you. I'll go instead."

Aunt Yu's son is already a young man, and Aunt Yu, being a woman, is indeed finding it somewhat difficult to manage.

Xu Yueyun cares about her sister-in-law and feels sorry for her son. "You finally have a holiday, so just stay home and rest. Let your dad go."

Su Bingcheng said the same thing.

Lin Zhilan said, "I've only heard that Sister Yu's son has difficulty walking. Was it because he was injured when he was a child?"

Xu Yueyun sighed, "The aftereffects of polio are that one of my legs is completely immobile, and I can only drag myself around."

Lin Zhilan was somewhat tempted.

In the afterlife, her last research topic was the treatment of spinal cord motor nerve injury using traditional Chinese medicine.

She came into this world just as they were making a little progress.

Given the current limitations, even if she wanted to continue her research, it would be difficult to create suitable conditions.

Su Lang immediately saw through his wife's thoughts. "You want to go take a look?"

Lin Zhilan: "I'd like to see this case, but Aunt Yu's son has probably been sick for many years, so the chances are slim."

Lin Zhilan is a doctor, and she wouldn't make boastful claims unless she was absolutely certain.

"How about this," Lin Zhilan said, "I'll take my second brother's pulse first and write a prescription. When I go to the hospital to pick up the medicine tomorrow, I'll also stop by Aunt Yu's place."

Deng Jing quickly pushed Su Jue to sit down on the sofa.

Su Jue extended his hand.

Lin Zhilan placed her fingers on Su Jue's wrist, carefully checking his pulse.

After a while, Su Jue switched hands.

Deng Jing stood beside her, nervously watching her expression.

Lin Zhilan's expression gradually turned serious, and Deng Jing's heart jumped.

After a long while, Lin Zhilan withdrew her hand.

"Sister-in-law..."

Lin Zhilan sighed softly, "Second Brother's health is severely depleted, and with the stagnation of liver qi, which transforms into fire, is he having trouble sleeping at night and having many dreams?"

Su Jue nodded slightly.

Lin Zhilan continued, "She also has stomach problems, as well as significant issues with her cervical spine and shoulders. Her blood and qi are stagnant, her meridians are blocked, and she also has arthritis."

Su Jue's expression changed only slightly, as if he wasn't talking about his body.

Deng Jinghong nudged him, her eyes red, "Is what your sister-in-law said true?"

Su Jue avoided her gaze and said softly, "More or less."

These are all old problems, and his colleagues have them too, so Su Jue doesn't think it's a big deal.

Deng Jing's voice trembled slightly, "If your sister-in-law hadn't brought it up, would you have never told anyone?"

Su Jue held her hand, his eyes softening, trying to calm his wife down. "They're just minor ailments, don't worry."

Lin Zhilan calmly exposed his true colors, "Second Brother's health is the result of long-term overexertion. Irregular eating habits definitely lead to stomach problems. High mental stress also causes liver qi stagnation."

Also, I'd like to ask my second brother if he's been experiencing tinnitus frequently lately?

Deng Jing was taken aback and looked at Su Jue, "Answer your sister-in-law!"

Su Jue could also tell that this sister-in-law was quite capable, so he honestly replied, "It happens occasionally, but it's only been happening in the last year."

Lin Zhilan found it a bit strange.

He always thought of Su Jue as a scientist who worked diligently at his desk.

She could understand stomach problems, cervical spondylosis, and arthritis.

However, this tinnitus is more likely caused by environmental factors.

This condition often occurs in people who work long hours in sealed, low-temperature, and high-noise testing environments.

Since it was a confidential matter, Lin Zhilan didn't investigate further.

"I'll prescribe some medicine for my second brother. Let him try a few doses first. Most of his illnesses are caused by work. Health is the foundation of everything, so he needs to take care of himself."

As Lin Zhilan spoke, she adopted the attitude of a doctor.

It won't be dangerous.

But she also seemed a bit serious, which was different from her usual gentle and cheerful self.

Su Jue nodded subconsciously, "I understand, doctor."
