Chapter 456: The Situation Was Different NowTranslator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

“Thank you,” the old woman said.

Wang Yao took a look at the old woman and found she was in really poor health. The meridians in her right leg, lower back, and organs were blocked. Her organs were in disorder.

“Do you have pain in your legs, waist, and back? Do you have pins and needles in your abdominal area?” Wang Yao asked.

“Yes, you are right,” the old woman said with a smile. Wang Yao accurately identified all her major health issues.

“I’ll treat the pain in your leg and lower back first. You need to take herbal decoctions for the organ disorder. Ask Pan Jun to bring you to the clinic,” Wang Yao said.

He then gave the old woman a massage and Qi therapy.

Many elderly people suffered from leg pain and lower back pain, especially those who had worked in the field most of their lives. The laborious field work could damage a person’s physical well-being.

It was easy for Wang Yao to treat leg pain. The old woman had a warm feeling in her right leg as he massaged it. She felt comfortable. The pain was no longer that bad.

“Now, could you lay on your stomach. I’ll treat the pain in your lower back,” Wang Yao said.

She gently turned onto her stomach on the bed, right next to her husband. The old woman had a protruding joint in her lower back. It was called lumbar disc herniation.

Wang Yao massaged her back gently to make the muscles relax. Lumbar disc herniation couldn’t be fixed by pushing the slipped disc back. The human body was not a machine. To fix a condition in the human body was not as easy as screwing a dropped nail back into a machine.

After the old woman’s back muscles had been relaxed, Wang Yao applied Qi when gently manipulating the slipped disc.

Crackle! There was a small sound. The old woman’s body shook for a few seconds.

“Done. I’ve fixed the slipped disc,” Wang Yao said.

“I’ve had that problem for a long time,” the old woman said.

Wang Yao followed the major meridians around her spine to give her an acupuncture treatment. The needles stimulated the old woman’s acupuncture points to unblock the meridians and improve the flow of Qi and blood. The smooth flow of Qi and blood led to a healthy body.

“I feel so comfortable,” the old woman said.

She felt much better after the massage therapy. She no longer had pain in her lower back. Even the pain in her abdominal area had reduced significantly.

“Alright, let’s call it a day. I’ll bring the herbal decoction for you next time,” Wang Yao said.

“Thank you very much. How much should I pay you?” the old woman asked.

“Don’t worry about it for now,” Wang Yao replied.

“I must pay you,” the old woman said.

This young doctor’s treatment had significantly improved her husband’s condition. He also treated her for free. She had asked her nephew about the fee. Pan Jun told her that he hadn’t paid Wang Yao a cent so far. She felt apologetic toward Wang Yao.

“I’ll discuss this with Pan Jun,” Wang Yao said.

It was after 3 p.m. when Wang Yao and Pan Jun left the old couple’s house.

“I didn’t know you could do acupuncture,” Pan Jun said with surprise. He had never seen Wang Yao use needles.

“I know a little bit of acupuncture,” Wang Yao said with a smile.

This treatment had just been a master hand’s small display. The outcome was satisfactory.

“If I was the director of our hospital, I would employ you,” Pan Jun said.

Wang Yao just laughed. He knew it was impossible for him to work in a hospital at this stage. Pan Jun was just joking.

“Let’s go,” Pan Jun said.

Wang Yao had spent the whole day seeing one patient.

…

In the village, Sun Yunsheng was checking the new house with Mr. Lin. Internal decoration had been completed, and basic furniture had been placed in the house. Sun Yunsheng and Mr. Lin couldn’t smell a scent of chemicals, such as formaldehyde, which was quite unusual.up date by v ipnovel. com

“Your father will send people here to look after you. He will send three people from Dao first. One of them will take care of your daily life. The other two will take care of your safety. I’ll stay here, too. Only four of us will look after you here, so hopefully we are not going to attract so much attention,” Mr. Lin said.

“I’ll leave you to arrange it,” Sun Yunsheng replied.

“By the way, we’ve decided to move into the new house next Wednesday,” Mr. Lin said.

“Good. I’ll let Dr. Wang know,” Sun Yunsheng said.

The two went to Wang Yao’s clinic but didn’t find Wang Yao there.

“He must have gone out,” Sun Yunsheng said.

“We can come back tomorrow,” Mr. Lin replied.

Twenty minutes after Sun Yunsheng and Mr. Lin had left, Wang Yao returned to the clinic.

In Beijing, Yue Chongyang tried to make up with Lu Xiaomei

“Xiaomei, could you please let me finish,” he said.

“Stop talking to me. I don’t want to listen to you, and I don’t want to see you.” Lu Xiaomei felt disgusted as soon as she saw Yue Chongyang.

“Xiaomei, please allow me to finish what I was about to say. Then, I’ll leave,” he said.

“Spit it out!” Lu Xiaomei angrily said.

“I’m going to see a specialist, who I’ve made contact with. Would you like to come with me?” he asked.

“No. I don’t need you to worry about me!” Lu Xiaomei turned around and left.

“Xiaomei! Xiaomei!”

Yue Chongyang called several times, but his wife, who used to be so nice to him, didn’t turn her head back. He knew he had hurt his wife badly.

“I’m sorry, Xiaomei,” he said in a low voice. He then went to Su Changhe’s office.

“You are going to the U.S.A.?” Su Changhe asked with surprise.

“Yes, I’ve made contact with a specialist. I’ve also told Xiaomei about it and asked her to come with me. She didn’t accept my invitation. Could you please help me convince her to come with me?” Yue Chongyang pleaded.

“Actually, you don’t need to worry about her. Her condition is much better than yours. The progress of the disease has been controlled,” Su Changhe said.

“Really?” Yue Chongyang asked.

“Yes,” Su Changhe said.

Looking at his old schoolmate and friend, who used to be a successful businessman, Su Changhe wanted to tell him about Wang Yao. However, he decided not to.

“It’s not a bad idea to go to U.S.A. Try to get better and have a good talk with Xiaomei when you are back,” Su Changhe said.

“Yes, that’s what I plan to do,” Yue Chongyang replied. “Thank you for looking after me these days.”

“You are welcome,” Su Changhe said.

He sighed. It was useless to cry over spilled milk.

Looking at Yue Chongyang’s kyphotic back, Su Changhe felt sorry for him.

Some people often got carried away by their success and made mistakes. Some of the mistakes were minor. Others were big mistakes that could change a person’s life. One single mistake could damage a person’s life completely.

…

It was nice and warm on Nanshan Hill.

Wang Yao was preparing herbs for Su Xiaoxue and Chen Zhou. He planned to have a trip to Beijing soon.

Ding! Om! Who is it?

Wang Yao got a call from Tong Wei.

“Hello, you haven’t gone to sleep yet?” Wang Yao asked.

“Not yet. Are you on the hill?” she asked.

The two of them chatted on the phone every few days.

“I…” Tong Wei wanted to say something but stopped.

“What do you want to say?” Wang Yao asked.

“I might have to take a business trip to the U.S.A,,” Tong Wei said.

“Business trip, again? It’s almost Chinese New Year,” Wang Yao said.

“I know, but I won’t stay there long. I will come back before Chinese New Year,” Tong Wei said.

“That’s fine with me. Go if you really want to. Are you gonna travel with your colleagues?” Wang Yao asked.

“Yes. Thank you for your understanding and support,” she replied.

Wang Yao hung up the phone after chatting with Tong Wei for a while.

She’s going to take a business trip overseas again! We can’t always live in different places.

Wang Yao thought about his relationship with Tong Wei for a while. He then continued to prepare herbs for the decoctions.

He didn’t go to bed until midnight.

It was cloudy the next morning. The cold wind blew from the north. It soon started to snow.

“It’s snowing,” Wang Yao said as he looked up at the sky. He was standing on the top of the hill.

“Yes, it’s snowing here. I’m fine, don’t worry about me. I’ve talked to Dr. Wang. He said I will fully recover in less than a week. Right!” Lu Xian hung up the phone.

I have to go to the clinic today. He put on more clothes and drove to the village. It was a bit cold in the clinic.

Wang Yao checked Lu Xian’s pulse.

“You’ll fully recover in three days,” Wang Yao said.

“Really?” Lu Xian was surprised.

“Of course, wait here. I’ve brewed the decoction for you,” Wang Yao said.

Lu Xian took the decoction, made payment, and left the clinic in good mood. He drove back to the Lianshan town center humming a happy tune.

Recovering in three days had completely exceeded his expectation. In fact, his condition was much better than Wei Hai’s. When Wang Yao was treating Wei Hai, his medical skills hadn’t been as good as now. Therefore, the treatment for Lu Xian took much less time.

Joy put heart into a man. Lu Xian told his family the good news as soon as he returned.

It was still snowing.

Having hot pot in such kind of weather was a wonderful thing to do. Wang Yao enjoyed the lamb hot pot very much.

“Eat slowly. It’s very hot,” Zhang Xiuying said with a smile.

“Your sister and Mingyang were going to come home today. I didn’t ask them to come back because of the snow,” she said.

“My sister has been to Mingyang’s home,” Wang Yao said.

Wang Ru had mentioned it to him when they were chatting earlier.

“Really? What does Mingyang’s family think about her?” Zhang Xiuying asked anxiously. Wang Ru never mentioned it to her.

“As long as my sister doesn’t talk too loud, they will definitely like her,” Wang Yao said with a smile. “You don’t need to worry about it.”
