These things cannot be known to outsiders, he knows very well what is important.

When Lin Qingqing saw that he suddenly looked serious and was completely different from the grumpy old man, she wanted to laugh.

"Mr. Lin, this aunt is a military dependent. She injured her leg years ago and didn't receive proper treatment. Now she has a leg disease. Can you help take a look at her?"

If this had happened yesterday morning, Old Man Lin would definitely have shown off first.

But ever since he knew that Lin Qingqing was so capable and had no way of picking out potential researchers, he was now happy to do whatever Lin Qingqing asked him to do.

"Oh, so that's it. Lift your legs up so I can see."

He put his hands behind his back, looking mysterious.

After hearing this, Hongqi immediately asked her mother-in-law to lift her legs.

Lin Qingqing took all the teacups to the other end of the table and asked Grandma Hongqing to put her legs on the tea table.

Old Man Lin bent down and stretched out his hand to pinch Grandma Hongying's ankle a few times, and then pressed her calf.

"Did you break this leg many years ago?"

Grandma Hongyin opened her eyes and asked in surprise, "Old doctor, how did you know that?"

Elder Lin pointed at Grandma Hongxi's ankle and said, "There's a tendon in your leg that's grown crooked. It must be that the treatment you received when you fell previously wasn't right, causing the tendon to be dislocated. That's why your foot keeps turning outward when you walk now."

Grandma Hongying opened her eyes even wider.

"You are worthy of being an old doctor. You only pressed twice and knew everything about my condition. Yes, my leg always turns outward and I can't use it."

Hong Xi hurriedly asked, "Old doctor, can my mother-in-law's leg be cured?"

Mr. Lin looked at the faces of the two men.

He said slowly: "It can be cured, and it can't be cured."

Lin Qingqing: "Mr. Lin, please don't keep me in suspense. These two military dependents will have to help me take care of the children later."

Mr. Lin nodded and told the story.

"This can be cured, which means there is a way to restore this leg."

Hongxi was delighted and her eyes were full of excitement.

Her husband took her mother-in-law to many hospitals, but they all said the condition was almost incurable.

Unexpectedly, the old doctor said that it could be recovered.

She was only a few seconds away from being happy when she heard Elder Lin say, "As for the incurable condition, it's because this leg is an old injury from a long time ago. The tendons and bones have grown crooked, and surgery is needed to cut the tendons and reconnect them. This sounds simple, but the risks are quite high. Doctors in my country may not be able to do it because there are so many blood vessels in the leg, and our equipment can't magnify them to the required level."

What he meant was that there was a way to cure it but it could not be implemented.

Isn't this the same as being unable to cure it?

There was unspeakable disappointment in Grandma Hongyi's eyes.

Hongyi's heart was also in a knot.

Lin Qingqing then asked, "Mr. Lin, what is the success rate of the operation you mentioned?"

Elder Lin held up two fingers and said, "Twenty percent. It's mainly because the magnification equipment we have domestically can't achieve such high definition, so we can't see all the blood vessels on the leg clearly."

"What if the equipment can meet the requirements?" Lin Qingqing asked.

Elder Lin paused and held up five fingers: "Fifty percent."

In surgery, 50% means success.

"I'll figure out the equipment," she said.

Old Lin looked at Lin Qingqing in surprise.

"Little girl, even the most advanced equipment in the country can't do that. What can I say to you? Do you understand?"

Lin Qingqing nodded slowly and told a lie.

"I know Dean Shi from Kyoto First Hospital. I'll ask him in the next couple of days."

"Okay, you try."

Mr. Lin said casually that he was doing research and knew better than anyone what equipment was available in the country and what level it could reach.

However, the patient was eager to be cured, so he couldn't destroy his hope right away.
