Chapter 44: Seeing the Old Lady
The old lady lying on the bed was clutching her stomach in pain at this time, and her wrinkled face was tired.
"Old lady, may I give you a pulse?" Squatting down, she bent herself to the height of the bed.
General Wang looked at the thin body in front of him in astonishment, but he didn't feel good in his heart, now that his children have grown up, there are fewer and fewer people who are willing to bend down to accompany the old lady.
But now, a girl who met for the first time was willing to bend her knees in front of the old lady.
Hearing the immature voice, the old lady turned her head to look at Shangguan Xue'er, her eyes full of surprise.
"You are?" The old lady asked in a somewhat hoarse voice.
General Wang hurriedly stepped forward and bowed his waist, "Mother, she is a doctor, and her son invited her back in Chunfeng Hall." ”
"Doctor, such a small child?" When the old lady heard General Wang's words, her surprise turned into shock, "I must have suffered a lot since I was a child." ”
The old hand was taken out of the quilt and finally landed on Shangguan Xue'er's cheek.
Really!
A faint smile flashed across her face, but her expression remained cautious.
"Old lady, I'm not bitter, are you willing to let me take your pulse? General Wang broke his heart for your condition, and searched for famous doctors all over the world, just asking the old lady to recover as soon as possible. Shangguan Xue'er said as she held the old lady's palm and put her fingertips on her wrist.
"Alas, it's another child with a hard life, in fact, my body is ......" Before the old lady finished speaking, she saw Shangguan Xue'er wink at her twice, and subconsciously swallowed her words back.
I saw her squinting her eyes slightly, her fingertips panning slightly, and the calmness of her expression made General Wang feel that the person in front of her was not a teenager at all, but an old man who had practiced medicine for many years.
After a while, she withdrew her arm and put the old lady's hand into the quilt, and then she got up and bowed to General Wang, "General Wang, can you let me talk to the old lady alone?" ”
General Wang's face instantly condensed, and uneasiness spread on his face, "But ...... old lady's condition?" ”
He didn't dare to ask more, he was afraid to hear bad results.
"At tea time, if General Wang is not at ease, you can arrange an old lady's personal maid to be on the side." She did not directly answer General Wang's words, but looked at General Wang in a pleading tone.
"Naturally, it's not that I'm not worried, it's just that I'll leave first." General Wang looked at the pair of clear eyes and finally nodded in agreement.
With the sound of the door closing, Shangguan Xue'er turned around and walked to the old lady to pick up a pot of tea.
"Old lady, I've been sick for so long, let's drink some ice water." She put her hand on the old lady's shoulder and said softly.
"You? How do you know I'm faking my illness? The old lady was surprised, but quickly got out of the quilt and snatched the teacup from Shangguan Xue'er's hand.
"I'm really tired of my mother, those quacks except for prescribing medicine to me, no one even saw that I was pretending to be sick, I should have been cured half a month ago, so I lay down for half a month." The old lady complained and drank water violently.
Looking at the old lady with a smile, she gently brushed the palm of her hand against the old lady's back, "Old lady, drink slowly, don't choke." ”
It wasn't until a glass of ice water was swallowed that the old lady regained her spirits, she looked at Shangguan Xue'er and nodded approvingly, "Child, how can you see that I am pretending to be sick?" Even the old guy of Renhetang didn't see it, but you can see it at a glance, hurry up and tell me if there is something wrong, next time I pretend to be sick again, I have to pay attention to the details. ”
