At the age of five, a fortune teller said that I would be able to see through other people's thoughts when I grow up.
My parents thought I was a genius and devoted the whole family's ...
Chapter 556: Dana, the Smart One, Resolves the Embarrassment of the Inspection
On the morning of the seventh day, after breakfast, I took out the new water cup I bought yesterday, put in the three herbs, and poured a cup of water.
Chunlai saw it and hurriedly asked, "Teacher, are you taking medicine too?"
"No, a fitness tea."
"From now on, I'll make you a cup every day?"
I was amused. If I drank this "love potion" that reduced my libido every day, wouldn't it all be gone? I laughed and said:
"You don't need to brew it, and you can't drink it every day. There are very particular rules about when to drink this kind of fitness tea, and only I know it clearly."
Seeing that I was very serious, Chunlai nodded seriously.
"Let's go." I said to him, picking up the acupuncture box.
"Didn't you tell me not to go?"
"There's going to be a small meeting. You need to attend and understand the situation."
When I left, Yiting was already waiting outside. I exchanged a few words with her and then walked into the living room.
The Chalun couple were waiting in the living room. As soon as we saw each other, they both bowed to me.
Because I was holding the acupuncture box, I had to bow to them.
We exchanged a few pleasantries. Chalun simply asked if the food was accustomed to him and if the accommodation was comfortable. If he had any concerns, he could speak frankly.
I said, "Thank you very much, Mr. Charon, you have taken such good care of us."
After saying that, I gestured to Yiting.
Yiting relayed what I meant - to give Dana a physical examination today.
Chalun exchanged a few words with his wife and then led us into the small living room as before.
They were very attentive, and a servant immediately made us tea. Then they brought us lots of fruit. At Charun's enthusiastic urging, I ate a slice of watermelon.
He insisted that I try the papaya, but I declined.
Mangoes, papayas, and strawberries have aphrodisiac properties and can increase libido, so you can't eat any of them. Because the girl you're about to see is almost completely naked.
After eating the watermelon, let’s get to the point.
I said, "Mr. Chalun, Madam, last time, I relayed the treatment steps to you through Yiting. Today is the seventh day. I plan to give Yiting a comprehensive examination to understand the cause of her illness."
The Charun couple looked at me seriously.
"For this inspection, only Yiting, my wife, and I will be present. Dana can only wear underwear. I hope you can communicate well with her."
Yiting translated for a long time, constantly making gestures. The couple discussed in Thai for a while, and then Charun spoke:
“Mr. Wan, do you have a mask or something that only shows your eyes?”
When I heard this, I felt that he was very thoughtful.
"Mr. Chalun, your suggestion is very reasonable. In China, people don't wear masks. If you absolutely need to wear one, you can only buy one."
"The masks you buy are either scary or funny. I have a factory that makes clothing and can make one custom."
As he spoke, he pointed at himself, indicating that the factory was his and he would be able to finish it soon.
I nodded. "Please use white fabric, the same color as medical masks."
Chalun immediately made a phone call, and a man came in a moment later. He took a photo of my head with his mobile phone and left.
Chunlai asked me softly, "She goes to a Western medicine hospital and needs a checkup. Does the doctor also have to wear a mask?"
I whispered to him, "There are female doctors in the hospital."
Mrs. Charon got up and went out. I guess she was going to communicate with Dana.
Zhalun asked, "Mr. Wan, why do you conclude that Dana will turn green in seven days?"
Yiting finished translating and, like Chalun, waited curiously for my answer.
I originally wanted to talk to him about the I Ching, but explaining this profound theory, which many Chinese people don't understand, would be like talking to a cow. I had to use knowledge known to the whole world to clarify his doubts.
"Seven days a week."
Chalun nodded.
“When God created human beings, he worked for six consecutive days. He was too tired and needed to rest on the seventh day. During his rest, human beings were born.
This is a change, called "change every seven days".
In addition, as the mother of human reproduction, women's physiological cycle, that is, a menstrual period from the beginning to the end, is generally 28 days. Around the fourteenth day after the end of menstruation, women begin to ovulate.
Fourteen days is two seven-day periods.
There are seven continents on Earth, seven stars in the Big Dipper in the sky, and seven emotions and six desires in human beings.
Christianity has seven patron saints: St. George, St. Andrew, St. Patrick, St. David, St. Denis, St. James, and St. Anthony.
These are not coincidences.
As for the number seven in Chinese culture, I won't go into detail. [Seven] is a constant, but also a variable. Beyond it, change occurs.
These words left Chalun dumbfounded.
After a while, he actually asked, "Mr. Wan, how does Chinese culture discuss the number seven?"
"You don't understand Chinese history. Ancient Chinese works sound like nonsense. It's hard for me to explain them clearly."
Chalun felt a little regretful. Suddenly, he patted his head and said:
"I have a friend named Zhan Cai who is an expert on China. If Mr. Wan doesn't mind, I'd like to introduce you to him."
I was just lonely, and having someone who knew China was much better than Yiting. Yiting only knew how to speak Chinese, while someone who knew China could use idioms.
Readers, please do not skip over what I wrote above. If you can only talk to someone who speaks Chinese about life, and you suddenly say, "This matter will soon be revealed,"
He absolutely cannot understand the meaning of the idiom "the truth comes out".
I smiled and said, "I'd love to."
Chalun was very honest: "If you tell him about the number seven in Chinese culture, he can explain it to me clearly. After you came, I have developed a great interest in Chinese culture."
At this time, the original man came in and handed Chalun a few masks. I tried them on and found them to be very suitable.
"OK," I gave a thumbs up.
But Mrs. Chalun did not come over, and the living room fell into silence for a while.
Because of the language barrier, everything had to be translated by Yiting. Even a businessman like Chalun couldn't find a topic to talk about.
Yiting had no choice but to keep persuading us to eat fruit. Zhalun stood up and bowed to me, pointing at his cell phone, indicating that he should go out and make a call.
Since the owner is not around, we are more natural.
Yiting said, "Teacher Wan, if Mr. Zhalun's friends come, I'd like to sit in on your talk about Chinese culture. Is that okay?"
I spread my hands and said, "Absolutely."
At this time, Chalun and his wife came in at the same time. Chalun explained to me:
"Dana trusts Mr. Wan very much. She said that in order to make it easier for Mr. Wan to give the injection without wearing a mask, she came up with a good idea. He can just wear an eye mask himself.
I just sent someone to buy the eye mask. Now you can go and check it out."
I couldn't help but feel happy for Dana. What a bright girl, and what a burning desire she had to stand up.
Wan Shanhong, you must make her stand up, move, and run.
I shouted to myself in my heart.
I stood up, unscrewed the bottle cap, drank a few sips of the "Forget Love Water", and handed the cup to Chunlai: "You go and rest."
Mrs. Chalun, Yiting took me to the bungalow where the swimming pool was.
When I was almost at the door, I stopped and whispered to Yiting:
"You and your wife go in, help her take off her clothes, and then cover her with a thin towel blanket."
