Chapter 36

There was no sign of his family in the house, which made Shen Cheng frown.

He searched the house for a while, but couldn’t find anyone.

He didn’t find anyone, but he did see some things.

Shen Cheng narrowed his eyes, his normally alluring peach blossom eyes now flashed with a hint of sharpness.

He walked to a wooden table in the living room and picked up a flower hairpin on it.

His mother had a hobby, she liked all kinds of headwear and jewelry, these things were all made by her.

His grandfather was dying, and she still had the mood to make these little trinkets?

Shen Cheng put his hands on his hips, a pile of resentment in his chest that wouldn’t go away.

He had been tricked.

–

Jiang Xinli sneezed several times in a row.

She couldn’t help but say: “Aiya, is someone thinking about me?”

Shen Wulin snorted: “Maybe it’s your son cursing you.”

Jiang Xinli covered her mouth and laughed: “You’re just saying useless things, our son doesn’t know that we tricked him, how could he curse me.”

They arrived at Deyuan Clinic, they got out of the car, one on each side, supporting Grandpa Shen.

Jiang Nianzi was already waiting in the clinic.

She was used to arriving early for appointments with patients, when she saw that no one was coming for a long time, she went out to buy breakfast.

Only Grandpa Zhang was inside.

Seeing Grandpa Shen and his family of three coming over, Grandpa Zhang was slightly surprised, then he excitedly greeted them.

“Mr. Shen, how did you come here?”

Grandpa Zhang and Grandpa Shen had met a few times in Beijing.

Because Grandpa Shen’s status was too high, but he was very kind, Grandpa Zhang had a deep impression of him.

Grandpa Shen was also surprised, he didn’t expect to meet Grandpa Zhang here.

“Are you Doctor Zhang Qixian?”

“Yes, it’s me.” Grandpa Zhang said with a smile.

Shen Wulin and Jiang Xinli looked at each other, their eyes were blank, they were actually old acquaintances.

Fearing that his son and daughter-in-law wouldn’t know, Grandpa Shen introduced them: “Your Uncle Zhang, he was very skilled back then, decades ago, he was a famous military doctor in the army.”

Later, he retired, and no one knew where he went, but unexpectedly, he ended up in such a small place.

Grandpa Zhang smiled: “No, no, the old leader is exaggerating, it’s just a skill to make a living.”

They chatted for a while, Grandpa Zhang asked Grandpa Shen what he was doing here, if he was feeling unwell.

Grandpa Shen didn’t hide anything, he immediately explained his purpose.

He said: “I’ve been searching for so long, I heard that there was a skilled old Chinese medicine practitioner here, I didn’t expect it to be you, what a coincidence.”

Hearing this, Grandpa Zhang asked Grandpa Shen what his illness was.

Grandpa Shen said: “The little girl in your shop said it was suppurative arthritis.”

“Suppurative arthritis?”

Just hearing the word was frightening.

For a professional like Grandpa Zhang, it was more than just frightening.

It was tricky.

“This…” Grandpa Zhang had been practicing medicine for so many years, he had only encountered one case of suppurative arthritis.

However, he had never cured that one case.

This disease was more suitable for Western medicine treatment.

But even with Western medicine treatment, it was very difficult to cure.

Seeing Grandpa Zhang’s troubled expression, Shen Wulin and his wife’s hearts sank.

Grandpa Shen’s heart was also filled with disappointment.

“Is it very difficult to cure?” he couldn’t help but ask.

Grandpa Zhang was about to answer when Jiang Xinli spoke first: “Doctor Zhang, but the Doctor Jiang in your shop said that she can cure it.”

“Oh? You said the little Doctor Jiang in my shop said she can cure it?” Grandpa Zhang asked with uncertainty.

Jiang Xinli nodded affirmatively: “Yes, she said that the treatment only takes a week.”

Although they said this, seeing this old doctor’s incredulous expression, the three members of the Shen family felt like their hearts had sunk to the bottom.

They thought that the little girl was young and arrogant, she was just bragging.

Grandpa Shen saw that his son and daughter-in-law were both dejected, he understood what they were thinking.

He sighed and said: “Why are you all looking so gloomy, it’s not a big deal, if it can be cured, it can be cured, if it can’t be cured, then it can’t be cured, anyway, I’m an old man, what am I afraid of?”

He said this, but Grandpa Shen’s heart wasn’t any better than his son and daughter-in-law.

Before they came today, they were in a good mood, they came here hoping to cure his leg.

Unexpectedly…

Grandpa Zhang was indeed shocked, but he was shocked by the girl’s talent, not doubting her ability.

Seeing that the three members of the Shen family were all dejected, Grandpa Zhang couldn’t help but laugh.

“Mr. Shen, don’t be disappointed so quickly, I can’t cure it, but the little Doctor Jiang in our shop said she can, she’s basically never wrong.”

These words gave the three of them hope.

Grandpa Shen directly “huh”.

Grandpa Zhang said with a proud tone, stroking his beard: “That girl’s medical skills are much higher than mine.”

If his previous words were just surprising, these words were a little shocking.

That little girl…

That little girl who looked like she was only in her teens…

Her medical skills were actually better than Grandpa Zhang, who was over fifty?

How could this not be shocking?

It turned out that what the old lady who came to the shop before said was true, it wasn’t a joke, it wasn’t exaggerated.

While they were talking, Jiang Nianzi came in from outside, she was eating a bun.

“Hey, girl, come here.” Grandpa Zhang called out to Jiang Nianzi.

Jiang Nianzi only then noticed that those three people from yesterday had come.

She quickly stuffed the bun into her mouth, she said to Grandpa Shen and the three of them: “You guys are here so quickly, come, please sit over there, I’ll be ready soon.”

“No hurry.”

Grandpa Zhang called Jiang Nianzi over and directly asked her if she could really cure suppurative arthritis.

Jiang Nianzi said easily: “Yes, although it’s a bit troublesome, it’s not that difficult to cure.”

Her relaxed tone gave the three members of the Shen family another reassurance.

Grandpa Zhang couldn’t help but laugh.

This girl, she always surprised him.

No wonder his junior sister said she was very smart, wasn’t she very smart?

He had studied Chinese medicine for a lifetime, but he couldn’t understand it as well as this girl.

She was still talking with a bun in her mouth, making her cheeks look puffed up.

Confirming that the old man’s leg could be cured, Jiang Xinli also had other things on her mind.

She saw that the little girl was as white as a snowball, beautiful and lovely, and she was also very capable, she couldn’t help but want to be a matchmaker and connect her son with her.

But it was not a good time to say this now.

She could only suppress her thoughts for now.

She helped the old man to sit down in the consultation area, Jiang Xinli and Shen Wulin were both waiting beside him.

Grandpa Zhang wanted to see how Jiang Nianzi treated him, so he also went over.

Jiang Nianzi took out silver needles and the ointment she had ground yesterday, she came in front of them, and then she placed the silver needles and ointment on the table.

The silver needles had been disinfected.

Jiang Nianzi asked the old man to roll up his pants leg.

Looking at the old man’s knee joint now, it was completely red and swollen, and there was some edema.

The diseased joint was swollen with fluid, it needed to be drained and then injected with antibiotics.
