Chapter 290 Misdiagnosis

Jiang Zhizhi told Fang Hua with certainty, "I've observed that Aunt Song doesn't have any major health problems. She's in very good health. If she really had a serious illness, it would show up on her face and in her eyes immediately, but she doesn't have any at all."

Fang Hua frowned: "I knew it. She looks so healthy. She doesn't look sick at all. Look how loud her voice is when she's arguing with Shang Shiying. She doesn't sound sick at all."

Jiang Zhizhi took Fang Hua's arm and said, "Let's not worry about her. Let's hurry home and have dinner. I'll go treat Sister Song Man's wrist in a bit."

Fang Hua was quite confident in Jiang Zhizhi's current acupuncture skills: "Okay, but don't try to persuade Song Man about Li Simin and Song Man's matter."

Jiang Zhizhi asked in confusion, "Why?"

Fang Hua smirked: "I see now. Even if two young people are willing to be together, they're unlucky to have a mother-in-law like Chen Limin. Shang Shiying is willing to compromise for the sake of the child, but she's so aggressive."

"Besides, she also looks down on the five sons of the Li family. I think Song Man is not good enough for Li Simin."

"If you don't believe me, ask around in the compound. I'm sure I'm not the only one who thinks this way."

...

After a few needle pricks and a quick flick, Song Man's hand was healed instantly.

Song Man found it unbelievable, and flexed her wrists: "I feel so different now. Before, every time I finished acupuncture, I would just feel relieved, but now it's obvious that I'm cured."

"Zhizhi, you're amazing!"

As Jiang Zhizhi packed up the silver needles, she chuckled, "I learned from a very skilled teacher. Once I learn more, I should be able to treat some more serious illnesses."

Chen Limin was afraid that Jiang Zhizhi would talk nonsense to Song Man, so she stood guard nearby. She watched as Jiang Zhizhi's movements were skilled, and in just ten minutes, Song Man's hand was already holding it properly, which she found amazing.

"Zhizhi, which teacher did you learn from? You're so good at it! Could you take a look at Song Dong's leg? He's had a leg injury for many years."

Jiang Zhizhi looked up at Chen Limin with a smile: "Sure, but Song Dong's case is a bit difficult, and it's been many years, so I'm afraid there's no way to fix it. By the way, Auntie, shall I take your pulse?"

Chen Limin immediately took a step back, her face full of resistance: "Why would I take your pulse?"

Jiang Zhizhi pretended not to know and said, "My mother-in-law said you have a very serious illness. You do look unwell. How about I take a look at you?"

Chen Limin resented Fang Hua for his big mouth, but after hearing Jiang Zhizhi's words, she had a different idea. Since Jiang Zhizhi said that she looked unwell, maybe she was not skilled enough and was just taking her pulse because she already knew she was sick and was just going on to say something?

Jiang Zhizhi blinked and looked at Chen Limin innocently: "Auntie, I've only learned the basics. It's just that I'm still only half-baked, so I like to take pulses for people everywhere to accumulate experience."

Chen Limin felt she had guessed correctly, and smiled as she sat down beside Song Man's bed: "Then will you examine me?"

Jiang Zhizhi sat down opposite her with a smile and took Chen Limin's pulse.

Just as she had predicted, Chen Limin was in good health. She had some liver qi stagnation due to her tendency to get angry, but it wasn't a big problem. She could be easily treated. With her health, she could outperform 90% of the younger people who came after her.

Seeing Jiang Zhizhi's furrowed brows, Chen Limin felt both curious and anxious: "Is there something wrong?"

Although she didn't believe Jiang Zhizhi could see anything, that expression was still quite frightening.

Jiang Zhizhi still frowned, her expression growing increasingly serious. After a while, she looked at Chen Limin and said, "Auntie, it seems like you have a problem with your liver, and it's quite serious."

Chen Limin was stunned, and her heart was also frightened: "Are you sure? I was perfectly fine during my checkup that day..."

Realizing he had said something wrong, he quickly corrected himself: "The problem I had checked wasn't with my liver."

Jiang Zhizhi said with a serious expression, "I can see that you have a problem with your liver, your heart isn't very good either, and your stomach seems to have some issues as well. Auntie, did you miss anything during your checkup?"

"Why don't you go to another hospital for a checkup, like the main hospital?"

Chen Limin's face had already turned ugly: "Don't you know anything? My test results are all normal. If there were really so many problems, wouldn't the doctor know? The doctors in our hospital are very capable, okay?"

Song Man looked at Chen Limin in surprise: "Mom, didn't you say the hospital test results were bad? Did you lie to me?"

Chen Limin's expression froze, and she whispered in defense, "Why would I lie to you for no reason? Anyway, it's not one of the places Zhizhi mentioned."

Song Man thought for a moment and said, "Then... let's go to the main hospital for a check-up tomorrow. We can't delay."

...

Lying in bed that night, Jiang Zhizhi couldn't help but laugh when she thought of Chen Limin's frightened expression.

Unable to resist, she got up and shared it with Zhou Xiye again: "Hahaha, I think Chen Limin will be too scared to sleep tonight. She will definitely go to the main hospital for a check-up tomorrow, and the truth will be revealed."

Zhou Xiye sat up with her and reached out to pinch the soft flesh on her face: "You are so naughty. But this is not the first time Aunt Song has used this trick. She used it on Song Dong before."

Jiang Zhizhi exclaimed in surprise, "So, Song Man still believes it? She's really too naive."

As she spoke, her eyes lit up, and she pushed Zhou Xiye's shoulder: "Lie down quickly, I have something different to show you today."

Zhou Xiye lay down with some skepticism, and even asked cooperatively, "Do I need to take off my clothes?"

After all, the previous times, Jiang Zhizhi had said she wanted to give him acupuncture, and even made him take off all his clothes, saying she needed to check him first.

As a result, his hands started groping him all over, and in the end, they rolled around together, making it impossible for him to get anything done.

Jiang Zhizhi kept a straight face and said very seriously, "Of course I have to take it off, but don't worry, today's acupuncture is really serious. You have problems in your shoulders and waist, and with me here, I can definitely cure them."

Zhou Xiye chuckled, but he didn't quite believe Jiang Zhizhi, because she had said the same thing every time before.

Lovers are like dry tinder and a raging fire, ready to ignite at the slightest touch.

In the end, the acupuncture was unsuccessful.

In her dazed state, Jiang Zhizhi was still concerned about one thing: "I feel like we can't go on like this every day... it's too excessive..."

Before she finally fell asleep, she reminded Zhou Xiye to wake her up early the next day so she could deliver the stewed braised pork to Jin Huaiying.

Moreover, before the Lunar New Year, there were many people and a lot of garbage on the streets, so Jin Huaiying hardly had any rest time each day.

So she decided to help Jin Huaiying clean the house first thing tomorrow morning.

After two busy days, I had to organize the knowledge I learned from Jin Huaiying into notes when I got back, so I didn't have time to find out about Li Simin and Song Man's affairs.
