Chapter 35 Who Is This Girl?

Several of Dr. Zeng’s assistants knelt down to help the patient up.

But the patient’s eyes were already beginning to glaze over.

“Wait! Don’t move!”

Shen Anan stopped the assistants.

The assistants were immediately angry.

“Who are you? What are you doing stopping us? Get out! The patient’s condition is very urgent!”

After saying that, they tried to push Shen Anan away.

However, Shen Anan remained motionless.

“You can’t touch him now. In this situation, it’s likely phlegm in his throat is causing respiratory distress, and excessive coughing has led to his collapse. You should first remove the phlegm; you can’t move him casually!”

At these words, the assistants frowned and looked at Dr. Zeng.

“Do as she says.”

Since even Dr. Zeng said so, the assistants dared not object, and helped Shen Anan remove the phlegm from the patient.

After the phlegm was removed, the patient slowly regained consciousness.

The assistants cleaned up the floor, their gazes all focused on Shen Anan.

What kind of background does this person have? She was able to find the cause of the patient’s collapse in such a short time and immediately came up with a solution.

“Thank… thank you, doctors.”

The patient weakly thanked the assistants, who looked at each other in astonishment.

If that girl hadn’t spoken up in time, they might have caused further problems by moving the patient. Now, how could they accept the patient’s thanks?

“Your condition is quite serious…”

At this time, Dr. Zeng spoke.

The next moment, he unexpectedly looked at Shen Anan, “What do you think should be done in this situation?”

Shen Anan was stunned by the question.

Asking her?!

She had only acted because she had seen similar cases in medical books, and the situation was urgent. Why was Dr. Zeng asking her now?

Nervous!

“Just say what you think. What treatment method do you think should be used for his condition?”

Dr. Zeng continued.

The assistants on the side were dumbfounded.

Although Dr. Zeng seemed unemotional, the admiration in his eyes was obvious to anyone!

Who is this girl?!

Shen Anan didn’t notice Dr. Zeng’s gaze. She only felt sweat on her palms.

This wasn’t a classroom question; she was essentially diagnosing a patient!

A misdiagnosis was equivalent to murder!

Shen Anan looked at the patient and hesitantly asked, “Can you extend your hand so I can take your pulse?”

The patient was a little unresponsive at first.

He guessed this was a new doctor; she just looked a little young, appearing to be only eighteen or nineteen years old.

The next moment, he obediently extended his hand.

After taking his pulse, Shen Anan asked him to open his mouth and checked the condition of his throat.

Finally, she asked about the patient’s recent medication and any previous illnesses.

After a thorough examination, Shen Anan found that the patient’s constitution was similar to Aunt Yang’s—very weak.

So she looked at Dr. Zeng, “This patient is somewhat frail. The medications usually used to treat coughs may be too strong for him, and conventional medication may be counterproductive.

I suggest perhaps using a combination of acupuncture and dietary therapy.”

Hearing Shen Anan’s words, Dr. Zeng’s eyes flashed with admiration, and he nodded.

“A combination of acupuncture and dietary therapy is good. What about the acupuncture points?”

The assistants were terrified.

They actually had treatment methods in mind, but they didn’t expect the girl to suggest acupuncture and dietary therapy. They had no idea where to apply the needles!

Their eyes darted around; they had no plan. If asked about medication, they could answer…

Shen Anan swallowed his saliva, looked at Dr. Zeng and replied: “I think we can apply one needle of Du Fei after three needles in the throat, and then add Ren Tong, so as to open up the lung qi.”

After speaking, Shen Anan looked at Dr. Zeng, clutching her hands.

She was worried she might have made a mistake, as she had almost no experience.

“Okay, you do the acupuncture, I’ll watch!”

Dr. Zeng directly took out his acupuncture kit and handed it to Shen Anan.

Now Shen Anan was even more at a loss.

She had only practiced acupuncture in class and had never tried it on a real person.

“Dr. Zeng, I…”

“If you’re unwilling, you can leave now.”

Dr. Zeng said coldly.

He was never a patient person. If it weren’t for Shen Anan’s excellent handling of the patient’s emergency, he wouldn’t easily forgive her for refusing him yesterday.

“Okay, I’ll try!”

Shen Anan gritted her teeth.

Even if she couldn’t do it, she had to try. She wasn’t stupid; she could see that Dr. Zeng was angry.

Taking the needles, Shen Anan began to perform acupuncture on the patient, her gaze steady, her forehead slightly sweaty, but her hands steadily inserted the needles into the acupoints.

“This needle can be inserted a little deeper, don’t be afraid of hurting the person!”

Dr. Zeng said in a deep voice.

Shen Anan nodded slightly, quickly understanding, and the subsequent acupuncture did not have any problems.

Soon the acupuncture was finished.

The patient indeed felt much more comfortable breathing.

“This… this really works!”

His tone was filled with surprise.

He had just thought that such a young doctor might not be able to cure him, but now he realized he had underestimated her!

“Write down your dietary therapy plan.”

Dr. Zeng took out a prescription pad and placed it in front of Shen Anan.

The assistants quickly got up, offered her a stool, and gave her a pen.

At this moment, they could clearly see that this girl’s skill was extraordinary!

Shen Anan softly thanked them, then concentrated on writing the dietary therapy plan.

She was inherently interested in this, and had accumulated a lot of experience while treating Aunt Yang, so this was her forte.

After quickly finishing, Shen Anan handed it to Dr. Zeng.

Dr. Zeng carefully examined it and nodded.

“No problem.”

Then, he looked at the patient, “This Shen Anan classmate is a student in my night school, exceptionally talented. I wouldn’t even think of the dietary therapy plan she gave you!

Follow her prescription, and as for acupuncture, come back every three days. It should be cured within half a month!”

Hearing this, the patient nodded repeatedly, his eyes filled with excitement towards Shen Anan.

“Truly a young talent, if my daughter were like you, I’d be relieved…”

He said with emotion as he received the prescription.

After the patient left, another patient came in.

Dr. Zeng simply let Shen Anan make the judgment, while he provided guidance.

Unknowingly, the afternoon passed, and it was almost dark.

After sending away the last patient, Shen Anan realized it was almost six o’clock.

“You did well today, continue tomorrow.”

Dr. Zeng didn’t give Shen Anan a chance to refuse.

He probably could only receive such a talented disciple in his lifetime, and he had to strictly train her!

After that, he left.

Shen Anan watched Dr. Zeng leave, opened her mouth, but ultimately said nothing, hurrying back to the Huo family to cook.

Unexpectedly, upon returning, she found that Uncle Huo had already prepared dinner.

“Come, come, sit down and eat! I know Dr. Zeng took you to the hospital to see patients today, you’re doing well!”

Huo Ai Hua beamed.

He wondered what he should say if people asked—be humble or boast?

Hehehe! No way, the Huo family just loves producing genius doctors!

Yang Qiuju was also smiling from ear to ear.

“When you came back, the neighbors were asking where you went. When I told them you were seeing patients with Dr. Zeng, they didn’t dare say anything!”

Ever since her son injured his leg and returned home to recuperate, and the Huo family’s decline, how many neighbors had gossiped behind their backs?

Today, they still wanted to gossip about her daughter-in-law?

Humph! Her daughter-in-law was a gifted doctor, don’t you believe it? Look, since the opening of the night school’s TCM class, which night school student has Dr. Zeng taken to the hospital to see patients?

None!

Her daughter-in-law, Shen Anan, was one of a kind!

Shen Anan was stunned, looking at Uncle Huo and Aunt Yang, who not only didn’t blame her for not coming back to cook, but were proud of her, her eyes filled with warmth.

This feeling of her family being proud of her was something she had never experienced before…

After dinner, Shen Anan quickly washed the dishes and then hurried to night school.

Meanwhile, Shen Xiuxiu accompanied Luo Tingting to night school. At the entrance, Shen Xiuxiu was about to leave, but unexpectedly saw a familiar figure!
