Chapter 9: The Genius Son
At noon, when Fang Bai returned home, his mother Yangmei had already prepared a meal and was waiting for him.
"Mom, can you bring some meat when you cook in the future?"
While eating, Fang Bai looked at the two plates of vegetarian dishes and a plate of pickled vegetables on the table, scratched his head and said, "It's best to have beef and mutton...... Well, I've been exercising lately to refuel. ”
His refining plan has already begun, and the strength will gradually increase in the future, and with the improvement of his physique, the amount of food will definitely increase greatly, especially the need for meat to replenish the physical strength consumed.
Yang Mei and her husband Fang Gang looked at each other, and their expressions were a little gloomy.
"Eating meat every day, aren't you tired of eating it......? After that, we'll eat once every three days. ”
Yang Mei's eyes were slightly red as she spoke, and she sighed secretly.
It's not that she doesn't want her son to eat more meat, but because of the family's financial constraints, she has to calculate her life.
Fang Bai finished the rice in the bowl with five divisions and two parts, then filled a big bowl, and said with a smile: "Mom, there is no money at home, right? This is no problem, I will find a way to make money in the future, you are responsible for buying meat for me to eat." ”
Yang Mei was stunned: "Where do you go as a student to earn money?"
"Fang Bai, although our family is poor, we must be poor and have backbone, and we must not do those crooked things!" Fang Gang said solemnly.
"Don't worry, Dad, I won't do anything bad. ”
After eating, Yangmei went to wash the dishes, and Fang Bai and his father Fang Gang sat in the courtyard and chatted.
"Dad, I've been studying the ancient medical books that my family treasures recently, and I have some understanding of acupuncture and massage. I think that with acupuncture supplemented by Tuina, you can still hope to stand up again. ”
After a while, Fang Bai squatted in front of his father, observed his legs, and said slowly.
"Well, those ancient medical books at home, see if there is nothing bad. But my leg is ...... Alas, it's hard to cure! So many famous doctors in China have said no......"
Fang Gang shook his head and waved his hand, his tone full of sadness.
"Dad, it's okay to be idle, I'll give you a few massages, you can see how my technique is." ”
Fang Bai said as he rolled up his sleeves and pressed his hands on his father's legs.
"I feel like I'm gifted in medicine...... Oh, I'm talking about Chinese medicine, and my acupuncture and massage are all self-taught...... Dad, I want to be like you in the future and open a Chinese medicine clinic in the city. What do you think?"
Fang Bai said while giving his father a massage.
Fang Gang looked down at his son giving him a massage, he didn't pay much attention to it at first, but then his expression gradually became solemn.
My son's massage technique is not like a novice at all, but like an old Chinese medicine doctor with decades of medical experience, kneading and pushing, and the technique is skillful, but it is a pity that his legs are unconscious, and he can't feel the weight of his massage, which is a pity.
"You're really self-taught?"
Fang Gang looked at his son, as if he didn't know him at all, with an incredible expression.
Fang Gang knew that his son mainly studied Western medicine in medical school, but he didn't expect him to learn Chinese medicine by himself, which made Fang Gang, who was born in a family of traditional Chinese medicine, happy and a little more emotional.
Fang Bai nodded and said with a smile: "Dad, my massage technique is okay, right?"
Fang Gang said: "It's passable! It's better than me...... If you have a good grasp of the weight, it is really no problem to open a massage gym......!
As soon as his voice changed, he said with a straight face: "It's better to learn your Western medicine hard, and don't think about opening a Chinese medicine hall...... Alas, today's Chinese medicine has come to an end, and no matter how well you learn, there is no way out...... I'm an example......"
Fang Bai didn't argue anything, he took out the box of silver needles that he had turned over last night from his room, rolled his father's trouser leg above his knees, and said, "Dad, how about you try my self-taught acupuncture again......"
Fang Gang watched his son stick the sterilized silver needles into his legs one by one, and couldn't help but laugh and scold: "Good boy, you are going to test my body! Okay, my legs are useless anyway, you can just toss them!"
Fang Bai's needle is extremely fast, the acupuncture point recognition is accurate, and in the blink of an eye, the silver needle has been pierced into Fang Gang's Quchi, Hegu, Zhongguan, Zusanli and other acupuncture points, without the slightest deviation.
"Okay, look at your acupuncture technique, acupuncture is also better than mine. Good boy, it's hard for you. ”
Fang Gang was amazed by his son's acupuncture and massage skills, which were beyond the reach of some old Chinese medicine practitioners who had practiced medicine for many years.
"If my son really opens a Chinese medicine gym, and our father and son go into battle together, maybe business will be very good...... However, Fang Bai will definitely oppose it...... Alas......"
Fang Gang was slowly distracted, when he suddenly felt a stream of heat as thin as a needle and thread sink into his body, and quickly rushed to the damaged spinal nerve in his waist.
Stimulated by the heat flow, Fang Gang only felt that his legs, which had been paralyzed for several months, suddenly felt like an electric current, and he actually felt a numb sensation.
Although this feeling was very slight and transient, it made Fang Gang ecstatic.
"Dad, did you feel a little numb and painful in your legs just now?"
"Hmm. ”
Seeing his son twisting silver needles in his hand and smiling at himself, Fang Gang suddenly burst into tears.
Fang Bai knew why his father was so excited.
After the car accident that paralyzed my father a few months ago, the family spent a lot of money and doctors did not ask for him to be able to stand and walk again, but the result was very disappointing.
Almost all doctors told fathers: you will have to spend the rest of your life in a wheelchair.
My father didn't believe it at first, but after trying various treatments, his legs were still unconscious, and he finally despaired.
But now, with just a few small silver needles, my father has experienced the long-lost numbness again after a few months, how can he not cry with joy?
As an old Chinese medicine doctor who has practiced medicine for many years, Fang Gang knows that the sensation of his legs is an excellent sign, indicating that his legs are still likely to be cured.
"Dad, every day at noon, I will massage and acupuncture for you, maybe in three or five months, you will be able to stand up again like a normal person. ”
Seeing his father's excited snot and tears, Fang Bai put away the silver needle, wiped the sweat from his forehead, and couldn't help laughing.
After some acupuncture and massage just now, although the time was not long, Fang Bai's spirit and energy were extremely consumed, as if he had run a marathon, and he had a feeling that he was about to collapse.
"What are you father and son doing here?"
Yang Mei walked to the courtyard after finishing the things in the kitchen, and saw her son squatting in front of her husband's wheelchair, and the two of them cried and laughed, and couldn't help but feel strange.
Fang Gang took a wet towel handed by his son, wiped his face vigorously, and then let out a long sigh of relief.
"Wife, I didn't believe that there was a genius in this world before, but now I ...... I believe it!"
"God babble...... Don't understand what you're talking about. ”
"Our son is a genius!"
"That's it, and I don't look at whose son he had!"
"If our son transfers to Chinese medicine, he will open a Chinese medicine hall after graduation......"
"Stop! Fang Gang, I won't let my son follow your old path! Learn anything, and I can't let him learn Chinese medicine!"
"What's wrong with Chinese medicine? Chinese medicine has the hope of curing my leg ......"
"Your legs? wait...... What the hell is going on?"
"Hey, hey, our son......"
Fang Bai could probably guess what his parents would say next, but he didn't have the heart to listen.
He turned around and entered his room, hid in bed, and performed the "Dragon, Tiger, Lion and Elephant Gong" to perform pranayama, and began to recover his excessively depleted spirit.
