Among the people present, Aunt Qi was the least intelligent, but she was the one who listened most seriously and attentively. She broke down and crumpled every word Chu Yue said in her mind, thinking carefully about it.
Just like that, she relied on an intuition deep in her heart and actually understood it.
Aunt Qi looked at Chu Yue excitedly and said tremblingly, "I... can cure it? Can I... cure it?"
Chu Yue nodded, "Well, if you treat it well, there is still hope."
Chu Yue didn't dare to make a 100% certain statement, but she had a 90% hope in her heart that it could be cured.
Her words "there is hope" were like a great gift from God.
Aunt Qi's eyes suddenly turned red, and her frail figure trembled with joy, and she kept muttering, "That's great, that's great... Thank you, thank you..."
Han Shi, who was standing by, was equally happy to hear this and hurriedly asked on behalf of Aunt Qi, "Comrade Chu, you said it can be cured, but how? Aunt Qi has been wanting to have a child for decades, can it be quicker?"
Before Chu Yue could say anything, Song Hongmei came to her rescue and explained, "It's not possible to cure a disease and save a life quickly. Since Sister Chu said it can be cured, just take your time and it will definitely be cured."
Han Shi quickly responded, "Yes, yes, yes, I was too impatient. Just treat it slowly. As long as it can be cured, it's fine. What should we do next?"
Chu Yue has already taken Aunt Qi's pulse and figured out why she is unable to conceive. What she needs to do next is to get rid of the cold and regulate her body to the point where she can conceive.
The diagnosis and treatment plan is also divided into two steps.
The first is to use acupuncture to drive away the cold. Thin silver needles were inserted into the acupuncture points near Aunt Qi's abdomen and uterus, and moxa was used to fumigate the area at the same time to achieve the effect of warming the uterus.
The second is internal adjustment, which means taking medicine.
Chu Yue took out a piece of paper and a pen, and wrote out a prescription without any hesitation. Seeing her confidence and composure when she put pen to paper, it was clear that the medicinal properties and pharmacological knowledge of the herbs were all in her mind, and she didn't need to look up medical books at all.
There were more than a dozen Chinese medicinal herbs written neatly and carefully on it.
Chu Yue took the prescription and said, "Aunt Qi, take this prescription and go to the Chinese medicine store in the city to buy the medicine. Then boil eight bowls of water into one bowl and drink it. Drink it once every three days. Keep doing this for a month. I'll check your pulse after a month."
"Okay, okay... okay..." Aunt Qi wiped her hands on her pants, trying to make them as clean as possible, then carefully took the paper with the prescription.
Chu Yue continued, "This prescription contains mostly common Chinese medicinal materials, which are not very expensive in drug stores. However, there is one medicinal material that is quite rare."
Rare and precious means expensive.
Aunt Qi and Blacksmith Qi spent their entire lives frugally and only saved a hundred dollars. If the medicinal herbs were too expensive, they simply could not afford them.
So Aunt Qi suddenly became nervous, her expression was conflicted, and her lips trembled as she wanted to say something.
Chu Yue patted her hands and said, "Don't worry."
Han Shi and Song Hongmei were looking at Chu Yue, and saw Chu Yue calmly stand up from the stool and walk towards her door.
Next to the wooden door, there was the wooden stick that Chu Yue had asked for from Han Shi - that is, the chicken blood vine.
Chu Yue held the wooden stick in one hand and found a kitchen knife in the other, and used the kitchen knife to chop the wooden stick.
Boom boom boom!
The kitchen knife is not very sharp, but there is no axe at home, so I can only use the kitchen knife as a substitute.
He was just chatting and treating patients, why did he suddenly start chopping wood?
What is this miraculous turn?
Han Shi was completely confused. He didn't understand what was going on, so he turned to look at Song Hongmei with a look full of doubt.
Song Hongmei was also puzzled and shook her head. She didn't know what Chu Yue was doing.
For a while, Chu Yue was chopping wood there, and the three people stood there in a daze, and no one came forward to help.
This scene lasted for a while, and then a "click" sound was heard!
The kitchen knife in Chu Yue's hand finally cut the wood. She clapped her hands, took the chopped wood back and placed it in front of Aunt Qi and Han Shi.
She didn't hide anything and said frankly, "This is the rarest ingredient in this prescription."
"This...wood...wood...wood?" Han Shi looked incredulous.
Chu Yue explained carefully, "This is not an ordinary wood. Its scientific name is Cistanche deserticola. Look at the cross section of this wood. It is red in circles, hence the name. This is a rare Chinese medicinal material."
Listening to Chu Yue's words, the three of them looked closer and indeed saw the annual rings that looked like bright red blood.
Han Shi and Aunt Qi were both from the mountains, and they didn't even notice it and just treated it as ordinary wood.
Chu Yue continued, "Centilla has the effects of promoting blood circulation, regulating menstruation, and relaxing muscles and tendons. Aunt Qi, take it home, slice it, and dry it. You can use it as medicine, or stew chicken soup or make tea. It is good for your body. But you must remember that too much is as bad as too little."
Aunt Qi carefully picked up the wood, as if she was holding a huge treasure, and was reluctant to let go.
She nodded to whatever Chu Yue said and remembered it all in her heart.
"Comrade Chu, you are such a good person... a very good person... my husband and I will pray for you for the rest of our lives."
Aunt Qi wanted to kneel down again and worship Chu Yue as a living Buddha, but Han Shi would never let her do so. She also said that doing so would have a bad influence on Chu Yue, so she didn't do it.
After that day, Chu Yue asked Aunt Qi to go into the room, and asked her to pull up her clothes to expose her belly so that she could have the first acupuncture treatment.
It was inconvenient for Han Shi, a grown man, to go in, so he just waited at the door.
He stared at the half-chopped wood, looking left and right, and whispered, "I didn't expect this to be a Chinese medicinal material? It looks so much like wood."
He is still in shock, just like that night when he saw Chu Yue pull out the calf with his own eyes.
inside the house.
Chu Yue took out the acupuncture bag, revealing a row of long and thin silver needles. She carefully identified the acupuncture points on Aunt Qi's abdomen, then burned and disinfected the needles. Her movements were smooth and focused.
Song Hongmei stood aside and felt an unprecedented aura from Chu Yue, which was very inconsistent with her age and appearance.
But it makes people admire it.
Aunt Qi has lived in a closed and backward village all her life and has never experienced even an IV drip or an injection. Now, watching such a long silver needle being inserted into her stomach, she clutched her clothes tightly with both hands anxiously, her eyes still looking at Chu Yue.
She was afraid in her heart, but because of Chu Yue, she trusted him unconditionally.
As long as she can give birth to a child, she doesn't care how hard or painful it is!
Chu Yue comforted her softly, "Aunt Qi, don't be nervous, it won't hurt."
The final result, of course, is... no pain, not at all.
