Yun Huaying chatted with her parents-in-law last night and listened to them talk about her eldest brother's wedding. Although her eldest brother and sister-in-law's wedding was very lively and successful, they as parents always felt that something was missing.
To put it bluntly, the wedding was held too quickly, they were not mentally prepared, there was no discussion on the eve of the wedding banquet, and they were completely unaware of the situation. The whole process lacked a sense of participation.
In fact, Yun Huaying didn’t have too many thoughts about the wedding arrangements. She felt that these were just a formality and it was fine to keep it simple.
She also knew that due to the current climate, a grand wedding was out of the question, especially for a prominent family like the Han family. Extravagance, or even excessive fanfare, was unacceptable. Since it would be simple and not overly elaborate, she was willing to let her in-laws take the trouble to help with the planning.
Li Suyao was delighted to see her daughter-in-law considerate of the couple's feelings, and smiled widely: "Huaying, you and Zhengzi should set a date and tell our parents about half a month in advance. If you have any requests or ideas, feel free to tell us, and we will definitely take care of them."
"Mom, I've never been involved in weddings before, and I don't know how to plan a wedding. I'm afraid we both don't have the time to learn, so I'll leave it all to you and Dad."
Yun Huaying had no intention of getting involved in these wedding details. She had already made up her mind that she would come to the wedding hall on the wedding day and then happily enjoy her own wedding banquet.
"Haha, okay."
Li Suyao responded happily and started thinking about how to help the children prepare the wedding as perfectly as possible.
The two spoke a few more words on the phone. Han Zheng didn't delay her from eating. After making an appointment with her to meet at the Municipal Hospital, he hung up the phone first.
Seeing Li Suyao's happiness, Madam Zhao smiled and said, "Xiaozi didn't give you any worries, but starting with Zhengzi, you'll have your share of worries. The children in your family are all very close in age, only a year or two apart. If they come one after another, you'll have piles of grandchildren in the future. I guarantee you'll be exhausted."
"It's a great joy for children to get married and have children, and I'm happy even if I'm tired."
Li Suyao thought it was beautiful, but one day, when a bunch of little rascals were chasing her to judge a case, she was overwhelmed and just wanted to escape quickly to live a quiet life.
"Zhezi, your two younger brothers are married now. As the eldest brother, you have to work harder." Mrs. Zhao urged with a smile.
Han Zhe was already on his third bowl of rice, his eating speed had slowed down, and he smiled: "Almost done."
"Oh, is this good news?" Mrs. Zhao was very smart and guessed it in an instant.
"Not yet, let's talk about it next year."
Han Zhe has his own plans. His two younger brothers are getting married this year, so he won't join in the fun. He will wait until next year and ask the elders to take charge.
He had given her a hint, and Li Suyao smiled and nodded, "Okay, next year is fine. We can arrange weddings one by one. Don't schedule weddings too close together, so your grandparents won't be too stressed."
Mrs. Zhao intuitively felt that Han Zhe had good news, but he just kept it a secret. She planned to go back and talk to Li Suyao privately.
The meal ended in a lively atmosphere. Han Lin and Jiao Minmin took the initiative to collect the dishes and wash the chopsticks, while Yun Huaying accompanied the elders for a walk to help digest the food.
After walking around outside and returning home, Yun Huaying said, "Dad, Mom, you should take a shower early today. I'll give Dad acupuncture to treat the hidden injuries he had from his youth, and I'll also give Mom cupping to remove dampness and dredge her meridians."
Traditional Chinese medicine was rehabilitated some time ago, and now she practices acupuncture at home, not afraid of anyone taking advantage of the situation.
"good."
Han Zhangping took a quick shower and took out the camp bed from the utility room. Han Lin helped clean it up and put a quilt and sheet on it.
Yun Huaying prepared the medicine in the room, brought the medicine box down, and gave him an acupuncture first.
"Dad, take off your shirt and lie down."
Almost all soldiers have scars on their bodies, which are their military medals. Han Zhangping also has several obvious scars on his back, which were left when he was performing missions when he was young. They are lying on his back like centipedes.
A layer of transparent liquid with a fresh medicinal fragrance was applied on the back. She massaged it vigorously first. After the medicinal properties were absorbed into the epidermis, she took out the silver needle that had been disinfected long ago.
Her acupuncture movements were steady, accurate, and quick, which made the sisters Han Lin and Jiao Minmin, who were squatting and watching, feel their scalps tingle.
Even Li Suyao, who had just come out of the shower, looked a little panicked and said, "Hua Ying, slow down a bit, don't stab so quickly, there's no rush."
"Mom, hurry up, it will quickly activate the medicinal properties and have the best effect."
Yun Huaying thought she looked scared and smiled faintly, "I've been learning acupuncture from my grandfather since I was a child. I've practiced privately countless times. I can accurately find the acupuncture points and control the strength even with my eyes closed. Don't worry."
"Okay." Li Suyao sat down on the small stool next to her. Seeing the man lying there without saying a word or showing any expression, she asked him, "How do you feel?"
"I don't feel anything at all."
"Dad, you don't feel anything now, but you will feel it later. You'll feel pain in the places where you were injured before, and there will be that numb, itchy, and painful feeling when a wound heals. This is the effect of acupuncture. Please be patient."
"This little pain is nothing." Han Zhangping smiled.
"They are all tough soldiers, each one of them has bones like steel and iron, and they are not afraid of pain."
Li Suyao has been living in the military camp since she married into the Han family. She has seen many tough guys, and her own man is also a tough guy with a strong will. No matter how badly he is injured, he has never cried out in pain. Sometimes the injuries are so severe that the bones are visible, but he still grits his teeth and endures it, and even does not need anesthetics. Sometimes she even suspects that they have no pain sensory nerves.
The last silver needle was inserted into the acupuncture point. The entire back was densely packed with needles. Yun Huaying took off her gloves, opened another box, and asked her mother-in-law: "Mom, do you want to go inside for the cupping, or here?"
"Let's go inside."
It was uncomfortable to lie on the sofa, and Li Suyao was afraid that the neighbors would come to visit, so she immediately got up and went back to her room.
Han Lin and her friends had never seen cupping before. Seeing that their father didn't need to be watched, the two sisters followed him into the house to watch.
When she saw her use hemostats to hold a cotton ball soaked in alcohol, light it, and then turn the flame into a glass bottle before immediately covering the skin on her back, and saw with her own eyes that a flesh ball quickly formed in the glass bottle, Han Lin's pupils shrank: "How scary."
"It's better than my brother cutting and stitching the rabbit back and forth." Jiao Minmin is braver than her.
Yun Huaying listened and smiled, but her hands did not stop moving, and they dropped one after another at a steady and precise speed.
Cupping doesn't need to take too long. Yun Huaying checked back and forth on both sides, and it took exactly ten minutes to remove the cupping on my mother-in-law's side.
"Mom, you have a lot of dampness in your body. I'll prescribe some medicine for you tomorrow. Every night when you get home from get off work, boil some water and drink it, including the soup and the residue. This will be fine for about half a month. Then drink it once every six months to expel the dampness in time. This way, your body will feel much more relaxed and your sleep quality will be better at night."
"Okay, Huaying, thank you for your hard work." Li Suyao slowly got up and put on her clothes.
