Zhang Yang wanted to speak and stopped, Xue Lao looked a little impatient, frowned and said, "You kid is really unhappy!" Speak up! ”

Zhang Yang looked around again, and then said in a low voice: "Old Xue, you shouldn't drink, you have a liver problem!" ”

Xue Lao couldn't hide the surprise on his face at this time, he looked at Zhang Yang with surprise and said, "How do you know? But immediately he thought again, did this kid guess? He has been a good drinker all his life, and it is a well-known truth that alcohol hurts his liver, and it is not surprising that Zhang Yang said this, he has been in the political arena for so many years, and he never imagined that he almost fell into the trap of this young man. Xue Lao said: "After drinking wine all my life, my liver is more or less problematic, but there is no big problem." ”

Zhang Yang said: "Old Xue, have you often felt hot recently, the smell in your mouth is obvious, and your palms and feet often sweat?" ”

Xue Lao had already believed it for three points at this time, but he refused to admit it, and said with a smile: "I am in good health, how can there be anything wrong with what you said, Xiao Zhang, don't scare me!" ”

Zhang Yang said: "No, does your right abdomen often hurt?" And will the episodes of this pain become more and more frequent? ”

Xue Lao said: "No, I'm very good!" ”

Zhang Yang said: "Old Xue, maybe I can help you, but you have to be honest with me." ”

Xue Lao pursed his lips, at this time he really realized that the young man in front of him was really not simple, if he was just blind, it would never be possible to explain his symptoms so clearly, Xue Lao looked at Zhang Yang for a long time without speaking.

Zhang Yang knew that this old man was suspicious, and the symptoms he said were not exaggerated, but it was the first time he and Xue Lao had met, and this old man obviously didn't trust him.

After a long while, Xue Lao suddenly whispered, "According to you, how long can I live?" If outsiders heard this sentence, they would definitely be surprised, but Zhang Yang didn't feel the slightest surprise or surprise, he said softly: "Does Xue always want to hear the truth or a lie?" ”

Xue Lao said: "Naturally, it's true!" ”

Zhang Yang stretched out three fingers and said, "It won't be more than three months!" ”

Xue Lao's face showed a hint of loss, and he sighed and said, "It seems that I won't be able to see my grandson after all." Xue Lao's words proved that he was very clear about his condition, but this matter had been hidden from his family, and Xue Lao kept this secret very well, even if the family members who lived with him all day long did not know about it.

At this time, the nanny came over to refill the water and said, "Old Xue, it's not convenient to talk here, should we change places?" ”

Xue Lao nodded: "Go to my bedroom and talk." ”

Zhang Daguan and Xue Lao had just met each other, Xue Lao not only invited him to dinner today, but also invited him to the bedroom, and only told the others that he asked Zhang Yang to help him massage, but in fact, Xue Lao had a huge secret to tell Zhang Yang.

When he came to Xue Lao's room, Xue Lao opened the desk in the suite study and took out his medical records from it, he didn't hand them to Zhang Yang immediately, and said in a low voice: "How much do you know about my condition?" ”

Zhang Yang said: "I just checked Xue Lao's pulse, and found that Xue Lao's liver blood is stagnant, and your liver should have a tumor!" ”

Xue Lao's expression was very calm, his eyes were full of surprise, although Zhang Yang had already explained his illness just now, but after all, he didn't say it in such detail, Zhang Yang could tell his illness so accurately just by diagnosing his pulse, which made Xue Lao a little more convinced of Zhang Yang's medical skills, and he said in a low voice: "When I was doing a physical examination a week ago, I found a tumor in my liver, and according to the examination, my tumor should be malignant." He paused, and said in a low voice, "I have liver cancer!" ”

Zhang Yang had already been mentally prepared for this, he took a few steps forward, took his medical records from Xue Lao's hand, and read the information in detail.

Xue Lao said: "The doctor gave me a suggestion, surgery as soon as possible, and then radiotherapy, but they didn't hide it from me, according to my current situation, the risk of surgery is very high, and no one dares to guarantee that there will be no metastasis after surgery." ”

Zhang Yang didn't speak, quietly put Xue Lao's medical records on the table, he came to Xue's house today with the intention of asking Xue Lao to write an inscription for Jiangcheng Distillery, but he didn't expect to encounter Xue Yinghong accidentally fell first, and then inadvertently discovered the secret of Xue Lao's serious illness, it seems that God destined him to have some contact with the Xue family, and he can't escape.

Xue Lao said: "I didn't tell them about this, I am over eighty years old, I have done everything that should be done, I am very hesitant, I can accept dying on the battlefield, dying at work, or even dying at home, but I can't accept dying on the operating table." ”

Zhang Yang said: "The situation may not be as bad as you think! ”

Xue Lao said: "The symptoms you said just now are very appropriate, since the diagnosis, I don't know if it is a psychological effect, the pain in my right abdomen has become more and more frequent, and only drinking alcohol can relieve some of the pain." He smiled bitterly: "I've been drinking all my life, and I'm drinking something wrong." ”

Zhang Yang stretched out his hand and put it on Xue Lao's veins again, he sent a wisp of his true qi into Xue Lao's meridians, and swam along Xue Lao's meridians for a week, Xue Lao felt a gentle air flow seeping into his body, as if there was a small snake walking in his body, and after about five minutes, Zhang Yang let go of Xue Lao's wrist again.

Xue Lao said: "Since you have seen my condition, I will not hide it from you, but I hope you will help me keep this secret, I don't want my family to worry about me." ”

Zhang Yang said: "Old Xue, you should actively treat it, have you thought it through?" ”

Xue Lao shook his head and said: "For my condition, they have consulted with the world's first-class medical experts, my situation is not optimistic, the probability of successful surgery is less than ten percent, according to what you just said, I have three months to live at most, if I choose to operate, I'm afraid it won't be able to survive for three months." ”

Zhang Yang said: "I said that you have three months to live at most, and that is under the premise of not actively treating!" ”

Xue Lao said: "You suggest I go under the knife?" ”

Zhang Yang shook his head and said, "Your situation is not suitable for surgery, and according to what I have learned, your body may not only have liver problems. ”

Xue Lao said: "So, I have only one way to die?" "He's not afraid of death and he's fully considered the worst these days. It seemed necessary for him to gather his children around and give them an account of what had happened.

Zhang Yang said: "With all due respect, it is true if you didn't meet me, but now you have met me. ”

Xue Lao stared at Zhang Yang's eyes, I don't know what this kid will say next?

Zhang Yang said: "I can save you and let you live healthy for another thirty years, I don't dare to say, but it should be fine for three or five years." ”

Xue Lao was skeptical of Zhang Yang's words, and he said in a low voice: "Really? You're not making me happy? ”

"I don't dare to lie to anyone!"

Xue Lao said: "I don't want to do anything for three or five years, just one year is enough, so that I can see the birth of my grandson, so that I can see the return of Hong Kong with my own eyes." ”

Zhang Yang smiled: "How can it be enough to just see Hong Kong's return?" At least I have to see the return of Macau, Xue Lao, do you think I am reliable? ”

Xue Lao smiled: "I don't know about you, we are meeting for the first time." However, since my granddaughters are willing to worship you, it is enough to prove that you are of good character. ”

Zhang Daguan was very satisfied with the evaluation that Xue Lao gave him, and he said to Xue Lao: "I have been studying in the party school during this time, and I just have time to help you treat your illness." ”

Xue Lao said: "How sure are you?" ”

Zhang Yang said: "If I'm not sure, I won't help you treat it!" Seeing him so confident, even Xue Lao had a little hope, and he said softly: "Anyway, I am still very resistant to surgery, and you have the right to use a dead horse as a live horse doctor." ”

Zhang Yang said: "I don't dare to compare you like this, you are a cow, an old scalper." ”

Xue Lao couldn't help laughing.

Zhang Yang said: "I can help you heal, but you have to promise me a few conditions first." ”

Xue Lao said: "What conditions?" I won't do anything that violates the principles! ”

Zhang Yang said with a smile: "Don't worry, I don't dare to tell you anything that violates the principles, first, during the treatment, you have to strictly follow what I say, first you have to quit drinking, and then you have to live according to the schedule I made for you, second, you have to help me keep it secret, I can only know that God knows what you know, and the third person can't let him know, including your precious granddaughter." ”

Xue Lao nodded and said, "I was also about to talk about this matter, I want you to help me keep it a secret, it seems that the two of us want to go together." ”

Zhang Yang said: "It is impossible for me to help you treat your illness at one time, so I may come to your house often during this time, we have to think of a way not to make others suspicious." ”

Xue Lao said: "You are young, your brain is alive, you have to find a way." ”

Zhang Yang said: "In this way, you say that you look at my calligraphy very well, so ask me for advice and let me be your calligraphy teacher." ”

Xue Lao said: "What? You will be my calligraphy teacher? I'm afraid you haven't been born when I write calligraphy. "Xue Lao is still quite confident in his calligraphy level, he has been an official for a lifetime, he has inscribed words for a lifetime, where to write is not a flattering voice, I can't imagine that this kid wants to be a calligraphy teacher for himself, it is really ashamed.

Zhang Yang said: "This is not an excuse! As long as others believe it! ”

Xue Lao said: "I have memorized all the things you said, are there any other conditions?" ”

Zhang Yang said: "There is another condition, if I help you cure your illness, can you make an exception and help me write a picture of Daming Spring?" ”

Xue Lao laughed, and he said meaningfully: "As long as I still have the opportunity to drink for a few years, what's the harm in writing you three crosses?" ”
