(Era Setting, Marriage Substitution, First Marriage Then Love, Ruthless Against Villains) After a car accident, Xia Yuhuan wakes up and realizes she has transmigrated into a novel set in the 1970s....
Chapter 32 She casually withdrew a complaint
Chi Shaokang looked at her expectantly.
If Xia Yuhuan can really cure Yan Hu's hand, then Yan Hu won't need to be transferred and can still serve as his bodyguard.
He's gotten used to working with Yan Hu all these years, and he wouldn't be happy if they were suddenly replaced.
"Okay, please take off your left sleeve. I'll give you acupuncture. In your current condition, you should have acupuncture every three days for about a month, and you should be able to recover."
"I'll make you another ointment later. Apply it to your hands every night for a month, and your hands will be completely healed."
"In addition, I will prescribe a medicine to regulate your body and help you heal the old injuries in your body."
"After following this routine, I guarantee you'll have a great appetite and be in excellent health."
Yan Hu said with a serious expression, "If Comrade Xia can really heal my hand, then my life will be yours from now on."
Xia Yuhuan was startled when she heard this.
"Uncle Yan, don't scare me. Why would I take your life? I'm just checking on you. If you're willing to trust my medical skills and follow my advice for recuperation, that would be the best outcome."
"Besides, I'm just treating your hand, it doesn't amount to saving your life, does it?" Xia Yuhuan said jokingly.
Yan Hu gently shook his head: "Comrade Xia, you don't understand. If my hand can really be healed, your kindness to me will be like being reborn."
Xia Yuhuan felt a little embarrassed and quickly looked to Chi Shaokang for help.
Chi Shaokang raised his hand and patted Yan Hu on the shoulder: "Alright, Lao Yan, don't scare the child. It would be best if Xiao Huan could heal your hand. Just remember this kindness in your heart."
"Yes, sir," Yan Hu replied immediately.
Seeing this, Xia Yuhuan silently prescribed the medicine.
When she handed it to Yan Hu, Chi Shaokang took it.
"Give me this prescription, and I'll prepare it together and take it home to Xiaohuan."
"Okay, then thank you for your hard work, Dad."
Old Qian, standing to the side, looked on with envy.
Unfortunately, his relationship with Chi Shaokang was not as good as Yan Hu's, so he was too embarrassed to ask Xia Yuhuan for help and asked her to take a look as well.
Xia Yuhuan seemed to sense his gaze: "Uncle Qian, shall I take a look at you too? Your back must be quite bad, you often have back pain, right?"
"Oh my, young mistress, you're amazing! I didn't say anything, and you could tell my back hurts?"
As he sighed, Old Qian hurriedly sat down in front of Xia Yuhuan and asked her to take his pulse.
Xia Yuhuan took his pulse and then said, "You have some lumbar muscle strain, caused by sitting for long periods of time. I will give you acupuncture, once every three days, for about seven sessions."
"I'll prepare some more plasters for you later. If you feel uncomfortable, just put one on and you'll feel much better."
"Oh, okay, thank you, young madam. How much do you think is appropriate for the consultation fee?" Old Qian asked somewhat embarrassedly.
Xia Yuhuan said, "They are all family members I know well and am close to, so there's no need to pay."
She quickly wrote a prescription for Old Qian and handed it to him.
"Come see me tomorrow when you're free, and I'll give you acupuncture then."
She had a limited number of silver needles in her acupuncture kit, and they had all been used by Chi Zhenghao and Yan Hu, so she couldn't perform acupuncture on Lao Qian.
"Okay, sure," Old Qian replied immediately.
Chi Zhenghao watched as Xia Yuhuan treated three people in a row and saw their reactions. He realized that Xia Yuhuan's medical skills were truly excellent; otherwise, she wouldn't have been able to diagnose other people's ailments at a glance.
So, when she first met the Chi family, was it true that she said she could cure Chi Yanzhou?
As Chi Zhenghao pondered, a glint of light flashed in his eyes.
After examining each of the patients, Chi Shaokang continued with his official duties, Yan Hu performed acupuncture, and Lao Qian sat to the side waiting.
Xia Yuhuan also sat down to rest.
After a while, Xia Yuhuan got up and removed the needle from Yan Hu's arm.
"Uncle Yan, now try grasping with your left hand and see how it feels," Xia Yuhuan said.
Yan Hu followed her instructions and made a grasping motion with his left hand.
"It feels smoother than before." Yan Hu looked at Xia Yuhuan with some surprise.
Since his left hand developed a problem, he has been able to clearly feel that his left hand is not as flexible and smooth as before.
But now, that feeling of stiffness has lessened, and I feel much more comfortable overall.
Xia Yuhuan smiled slightly: "After a month of acupuncture, you'll be fully recovered."
"You're not allowed to thank me. If you scare me, I won't treat you."
Seeing that Yan Hu was about to thank her again, Xia Yuhuan threatened him fiercely.
Upon hearing this, Yan Hu immediately swallowed the words that were on the tip of his tongue and revealed a rare smile: "Alright, no need for thanks. Then I'll hand this over to Comrade Xia."
"Yes, that's more like it. You and my dad are colleagues and friends, we're all family, no need to be so polite."
As Xia Yuhuan spoke, she carefully put the needle away.
"Alright, Uncle Qian, let's go home," Xia Yuhuan said.
Seeing that Xia Yuhuan was really about to leave, Chi Zhenghao finally realized belatedly that she had probably forgotten about him again.
He almost laughed in anger.
How insignificant is he that Xia Yuhuan forgets him time and time again?
She came to detoxify him, but after treating everyone else, she forgot about him, the real patient.
Chi Zhenghao gritted his teeth and said, "Sister-in-law, I haven't taken the needle out yet!"
Xia Yuhuan turned to look at him upon hearing this, "Oh dear, I'm so sorry, look at my brain, I have no memory at all, how could I forget you? I'll get the needle out for you right away."
After removing the needle from Chi Zhenghao, Xia Yuhuan reached out to him.
Chi Jung-ho was getting dressed when he saw this and was somewhat surprised.
"What are you doing?" he asked, somewhat confused.
"What for? Of course, it's for the consultation fee!" Xia Yuhuan said matter-of-factly, "I cured you of the aphrodisiac, so you have to pay me a consultation fee, right? What, you want to get it for free?"
Chi Zhenghao: "!!!"
He gritted his teeth and after a long while, he managed to squeeze out the words: "Didn't I sign a contract with you, agreeing to do three things for you?"
Isn't that his consultation fee?
"That's the fee for saving you and preventing you from being defiled by Xia Zhuyu. The treatment fee for detoxifying you is another matter, and you'll have to pay that separately."
Xia Yuhuan said matter-of-factly, "I'll give you 100 yuan, thank you."
"One hundred dollars? Why don't you just rob someone?" Chi Zhenghao exclaimed.
She just casually poked him a few times and then wanted a hundred yuan from him? That's practically robbery.
Xia Yuhuan saw through his thoughts and immediately narrowed her eyes: "You think I just randomly gave you those needles? Let me tell you, if it weren't for me today, no one would have given you those needles."
"I've saved your happiness for the rest of your life, and you still want to renege on your debt? Dad, look at him..."
"Here, a hundred yuan, right? I'll give it to you!" Chi Zhenghao interrupted her through gritted teeth, speaking fiercely.
Xia Yuhuan casually retracted her complaint and reached out to him again: "Give it to me quickly, I'm in a hurry to go home for dinner, I don't have time to deal with you."
Chi Zhenghao's face was cold, filled with despair: "I don't have that many on me. I'll go back and get them and bring them to you."
Xia Yuhuan turned to Chi Shaokang and said, "Dad, did you hear that? He said he'd send it to me later. You can be my witness."
“Okay, I’ll be your witness. If he doesn’t give it to you later, come find me, and I’ll help you get it back.” Chi Shaokang suppressed a laugh and unconditionally supported Xia Yuhuan.
Chi Zhenghao was shocked and looked at Chi Shaokang in disbelief: Uncle knew he wasn't that kind of person!
Moreover, Xia Yuhuan just treated the other three people in the room without charging them. Old Qian offered to pay her, but she refused. Why is it that when it comes to him, she wants a hundred yuan?
Despite their close relationship, he is the one who is family with her!
Chi Jung-ho felt extremely unbalanced.
However, Xia Yuhuan didn't care about his reaction at all and turned around and left.
Chi Zhenghao watched her retreating figure, his eyes flickering with light, his hands clenched into tight fists.
