Chapter 4 Acupuncture
"What's the situation, could it be the legendary silver needle puncture?"
Seeing this situation, Li Ruoyuan and the others, who were slightly behind, dared to step forward and hurriedly stopped.
"What did you do to my son?!"
Seeing Li Ruoyu petrified, Li Zhenghu panicked instantly, and his wife Zhao Xia even opened her teeth and claws, looking like she wanted to fight hard with Li Ruochen.
"If you don't want him to have an accident, be quiet!"
Glancing at the two of them, Li Ruochen continued to apply the needle, his movements were not hurried or slow, and he was calm and calm.
"I don't know what this young man ......is," the middle-aged doctor frowned and looked at Li Ruochen.
Although the city hospital also has a department of traditional Chinese medicine, he studied Western medicine, and has always scoffed at traditional Chinese medicine, and even regarded traditional medical techniques such as acupuncture and moxibustion as pseudo-medicine.
"He is Ruochen, the only son of the eldest brother, who just came back yesterday." Li Zhenghai, the fourth elder of the Li family, who had been silent, suddenly stood up: "Ruochen, this is your uncle Yang Pengcheng, who is also the vice president of the city hospital. β
When Li Ruochen followed his father overseas, his only aunt, Li Yun, was not married, so he naturally didn't know this uncle.
Seeing that Li Ruochen was focused on acupuncture and moxibustion, and didn't even say hello to his elder, Yang Pengcheng's face suddenly pulled down.
"Who allowed you to give acupuncture to the old man without authorization, even if you are a disciple of the Li family, you can't act recklessly, it's about the life and safety of the old man, can you be allowed to come nonsense?"
"Uncle is right!" Li Ruoyuan followed: "I don't know where I learned a little bit of fur and came out to pretend to be a miracle doctor, do you have a medical qualification certificate, if you don't have a certificate, you are practicing medicine illegally, be careful I call the police to send you to prison!" β
"Acupuncture lacks scientific evidence, and if something goes wrong, who will be responsible." Yang Pengcheng had a gloomy face, hesitating whether to ask the security guard to drag people out.
It's just that in this way, he completely tore his face with Li Ruochen, although he was not afraid, but he didn't want to make enemies casually.
After piercing the last silver needle, Li Ruochen got up and stretched, looking at everyone playfully.
"You are all filial sons and grandsons, just one of my family sinners, but you are a group of filial sons and grandsons, you don't even know that your grandfather is suffering from stomach cancer, it's really filial!"
"What did you say, grandpa had cancer?" Li Ruoyuan's mouth opened violently, and he was about to stuff two eggs.
Li Zhenghe and Li Zhenghu brothers were also extremely stunned, and looked at the old father on the hospital bed dumbfounded.
However, the fourth Li Zhenghai seemed the most calm, his face was only slightly shocked, and he lowered his head slightly thoughtfully.
"Don't listen to him, this guy clearly has bad intentions and deliberately curses the old man!"
After a brief period of distraction, some people soon questioned it.
Li Ruochen followed the voice and looked over and found out that the person who spoke was a distant cousin, and he couldn't remember the specific name.
"Am I talking nonsense, this Vice President Yang should know very well."
Li Ruochen didn't call Yang Pengcheng uncle, since people are hostile to him, there is no need to be polite, save a hot face and a cold ass.
Hearing Li Ruochen mention Yang Pengcheng, everyone turned their eyes, only to see the latter holding the inspection report tightly in his hand, and the shock on his face did not dissipate for a long time.
Because according to the results of the examination, the old man did have stomach cancer!
But he couldn't figure out how Li Ruochen made the diagnosis without reading the report.
"Is it really by taking the pulse ......?"
Thinking of this possibility, Yang Pengcheng became more and more incredulous, as if he had knocked over the five-flavor bottle in his heart, and his expression was very entangled.
"Peng Cheng, what is the old man's body, you have something to say!" Li Zhenghu couldn't wait to ask.
"This ...... Let's go out and talk. Yang Pengcheng turned around and walked out of the ward.
Seeing his expression, everyone in the Li family trembled in their hearts, followed behind with heavy steps, and had a bad premonition.
The report sheet was clearly written in black and white, and anyone who could read could understand it, and when he arrived in the corridor, Yang Pengcheng had no choice but to tell the truth.
After about ten minutes, after understanding the old man's condition, Li Zhenghe's mind became more complicated.
Everyone wants to be the head of the family, and once the old man dies, he is very likely to inherit the position of the head of the family.
But from another point of view, whether the Li family can maintain its current glory after losing its pillars is a big question mark.
If the family is in the middle of the road, even if you sit in the position of the head of the family, what is the point?
After being silent for a long time, Li Zhenghe asked in a hoarse voice: "Stomach cancer is in the middle stage, which means that there is still hope for a cure, right?" β
"It's theoretically possible, but it's only theoretical." Yang Pengcheng shook his head and smiled bitterly: "So far, human beings have not found a real cure for cancer, with my father-in-law's current physical state, whether it is surgery or chemotherapy, it is tantamount to drinking water to quench thirst." β
"This doesn't work, that doesn't work, you want to think of a way, is it possible to watch the old man wait for death?" Li Zhenghu was so anxious that he stomped his feet.
Although Yang Pengcheng doesn't want to admit it, the fact is that Western medicine is helpless about the situation in front of him, so he can only choose the conservative treatment of traditional Chinese medicine, which may be able to prolong his life.
At this time, a weak voice came from the periphery: "If you don't ask Cousin Ruochen, maybe he has a way to save grandpa." β
The proposer is Li Zhenghai's fifteen-year-old son Li Ruoyang, and only the people in the fourth room have a little kindness to Li Ruochen.
"What can a little kid with no hair do yet!" Li Zhenghe glared and shouted.
"But just now, Cousin Ruochen pointed out Grandpa's illness and treated it with acupuncture, he must have been sure to do it!" Li Ruoyang said with a stubborn face.
Hearing his cousin, his name was quite kind, Li Zhenghe suddenly became angry: "That's purely a blind cat meeting a dead mouse, who do you think he is, Hua Tuo's reincarnation?" Even if Hua Tuo himself comes, it is estimated that it will be enough! β
Li Ruoyuan, who was on the side, rolled his eyes, and suddenly said: "Dad, since Ruoyang believes in Li Ruochen so much, then let's give the fourth uncle a face and allow Li Ruochen to treat grandpa." β
Li Zhenghe was stunned, he didn't expect his son to say the same, and he didn't understand what medicine he was selling in his gourd for a while.
Li Ruoyuan was afraid that his father would refuse and ruin his plan, so he immediately made a look.
Although Li Zhenghe couldn't figure it out, he still nodded in agreement.
Even he was relieved, and of course the others had no opinion, and they all raised their hands in agreement.
Yang Pengcheng was not very comfortable, but strictly speaking, he was not a member of the Li family and had no right to participate in decision-making.
When the others returned to the ward, Li Zhenghe called Li Ruoyuan aside: "What's the matter with you, follow Li Ruoyang to fool around!" β
Li Ruoyuan laughed twice: "Dad, think about it, if Li Ruochen can't cure grandpa, let's push the boat down the river and put the fault on him, maybe we can expel him from the Li family in one fell swoop, and by the way, we will pit the four rooms." β
Li Zhenghe walked back and forth a few steps, squinted his eyes and thought carefully, feeling that his son's words made some sense.
It was Li Ruoyang who strongly recommended Li Ruochen to treat the old man, if something really happened, Sifang also had a certain responsibility.
Don't look at Li Zhenghe, who doesn't pay much attention to Li Zhenghai on weekdays, in fact, he is wary of it, and he always feels that his fourth brother is not as simple as it seems on the surface.
If you can beat the rabbit with the grass and take Li Zhenghai with you, it will be a clever plan.
After pondering for a while, Li Zhenghe said in a deep voice: "The only thing I'm worried about is that if Li Ruochen takes shit luck and cures the old man, then it will be a big trouble." β
"Dad, you're completely unfounded." Li Ruoyuan laughed disapprerovitically: "If he has the ability to cure cancer, I can go to heaven!" β
Li Zhenghe thought about it too, and immediately got rid of the unrealistic worries in his mind.
At this time, Li Ruochen had already pulled out the silver needle on the old man's body, wrote a prescription and handed it to Uncle Fu, the housekeeper of the Li family.
Uncle Fu has been working hard in the Li family for decades, and he is the old man's most trusted confidant, and this kind of thing can only be handed over to him, and Li Ruochen can't believe the others.
"The medicine must be taken once a day in the morning and evening, and it must be taken according to the amount on the prescription, not too much or too little, and I will give you another prescription in a week."
"Okay, young master Ruochen, I will definitely remind the master to drink the medicine on time." Uncle Fu carefully took the prescription.
"Since you said that you can cure grandpa, you should always know when his old man will be sober." As soon as Li Ruoyuan came in, there was a problem, and the experts in the hospital did not dare to guarantee when the patient would wake up.
In the face of his difficulties, Li Ruochen was in his chest: "I have used silver needles to dredge the old man's qi and blood, and I will definitely wake up in less than five minutes." β
