"Uncle Gu?" Seeing that he hadn't moved, Ruanruan reached out and pulled out the needle from his hand.
A sharp pain brought Gu Mingxiu back to his senses.
"Little Miracle Doctor, what did you just say?"
Ruanruan repeated it again, and then Gu Mingxiu bent down and took off his shoes and socks, exposing his legs.
There was no external injury on his legs, but he was extremely thin, so thin that you could see the bones. His legs were also shriveled, and there was some swelling in his calves.
Ruanruan took out a silver needle and pricked his leg a few times. "Do you feel it?"
Gu Mingxiu shook his head.
Ruanruan found an acupuncture point on the inside of his calf and pierced it with force.
"Hiss!" Gu Mingxiu gasped in pain and instantly broke out in sweat, as if a hot current was surging up.
"You have blood stagnation, plus you've suffered some injuries before, and the cold poison hasn't dissipated yet."
"It's not a big problem. Your problem is related to your own weakness and the severe cold you caught. Once you recover from your illness, your leg will slowly recover as well."
"When the time comes, we will treat your leg and it will heal faster. There is no need to rush." Ruanruan pulled out the needle again.
Gu Mingxiu took a deep breath, as if he had used up all his strength.
He leaned back in his chair in frustration, exhaled a few times, and slowly calmed down.
There is... consciousness!
His legs finally stopped feeling numb.
Gu Mingxiu was extremely happy, and his heart was pounding like a gong.
"Thank you, little doctor!" His eyes were slightly red, tears were flashing in his eyes, and his lips were trembling.
Gu Mingxiu was so excited that he didn't know what to say, let alone how to repay such a great favor.
He thought that he would never have the chance to stand up again in his life.
But Ruanruan told him that his legs could still stand up and he could still live.
Ruan Ruan comforted her, "Alright, alright, don't get too excited. You haven't recovered from your illness yet, and your emotions will fluctuate too much, which will easily affect your condition."
"Yes, the little doctor is right."
After Doctor Luo Shen changed Rong Qing's medicine, Rong Qing fell asleep again due to the pain. He put him on the bed and wiped his hands.
"General, everything is ready. Let's all go out and don't disturb the general's rest."
Doctor Luo came over and pushed Gu Sanlang out.
Ruanruan and Zhao Chengqian hurried to follow.
As soon as they went out, they saw a maid standing in front of the stone archway, sticking her head out to look into the yard.
When she saw Ruanruan, she said with a smile in her eyes:
"Little doctor, I see you're here. Everything is ready. You can go eat now."
"Yeah, thank you Sister Cuilan, we'll be there right away."
When Ruanruan heard this, her eyes lit up and she pulled Zhao Chengqian and continued to walk out of the yard.
Arriving at the side room of the study, Ruanruan couldn't wait to push open the door.
There was a large round iron pot on the big round table, and underneath it was a small stove with some charcoal in it, and the charcoal fire was burning.
The water in the iron pot was boiling, and lamb chops were cooked in it with some chopped green onions. There was also a plate of beef and a plate of pork belly on the table.
"This smells so good!" Doctor Luo Shen walked in smelling the scent.
Ruanruan climbed onto the stool and said with a smile, "Uncle Luo, have you eaten yet? Do you want to eat with me?"
"Great, great, I couldn't ask for more!" Doctor Luo nodded immediately.
He pushed Gu Sanlang to the table and sat next to him.
"Mingxiu, just drink the porridge." Doctor Luo asked someone to bring a bowl of porridge to Gu Sanlang.
He ate the lamb chops with big mouthfuls, praising them: "This lamb is so fragrant, not too smelly, and the salt is just right, the flavor is original. This soup should be delicious too!"
He quickly scooped himself a bowl of mutton soup from the iron pot.
Gu Sanlang held the tasteless porridge in his hand, pursed his lips and frowned slightly.
He looked up at the mutton bubbling in the pot again and said, "It smells so stinky, how can it be delicious?"
"It's delicious, but it's a pity that Uncle Gu can't eat it now. You have to wait until you are fully recovered, which is five months!" She held the lamb chops in her soft hands, chewed them in big mouthfuls, and made a five sign to Gu Mingxiu.
Doctor Luo said without hesitation: "Tsk, tsk, tsk, that's too tragic. Now I finally have some reason to understand what the little doctor said. It was indeed too long."
“Not being able to enjoy delicious food is a huge regret in life!”
Seeing him like that, Gu Mingxiu really wanted to throw the bowl of porridge in his hand at his face.
"Sister Cuilan, do you want to sit down and eat with us?" Ruanruan looked up at Cuilan who was standing aside and asked.
Cuilan quickly waved her hands, "No need, little doctor, I've already eaten."
"Try it. This mutton is good for women and can replenish yang energy." Doctor Luo said with a smile.
"Yes, Sister Cuilan, your lips are a little pale. It means that you are lacking in qi and blood and your body is weak. Do your hands and feet feel cold when you sleep at night?" Ruanruan said while chewing the meat in her mouth.
Cuilan was stunned. The little doctor was too amazing. When she thought about it carefully, it was true. She was more afraid of the cold than others almost every winter.
But how could she dare to sit at the table with her masters?
Ruanruan frowned, a little confused, because Sister Cuilan obviously wanted to eat too.
"Brother Xiaogan, why doesn't Sister Cuilan come up and sit?" Ruanruan asked Zhao Chengqian in a low voice.
Zhao Chengqian said, "She's used to this, right? If you ask her to come forward rashly, she'll feel rude and scared."
"Oh, so that's how it is. I understand."
Ruanruan took an empty bowl and scooped her a large bowl of mutton soup and a few pieces of mutton, "Hey, eat quickly."
"What are you still standing there for? The young doctor has pretended it for you himself." Doctor Luo said from the side.
"Thank you, little miracle doctor!" Cuilan immediately stepped forward, picked up the bowl of mutton soup, then returned to her original position and took a sip of the soup.
My whole body felt warm.
She hadn't eaten meat for a long time, and this mutton soup was a delicacy to her.
Ruanruan ate only a few pieces of meat, pursed her lips and said, "Little Brother, where is the snail rice noodle that Ruanruan bought? Let's cook some for dinner."
"I'll get it right away." Zhao Chengqian got down from the stool, walked around to the study, and used the key to open a large box filled with snacks and various powders.
He took a few packets of snail noodles and closed and locked the box.
Ruanruan took the snail noodles, opened the package in front of everyone, and put the vermicelli into the pot.
Only after the vermicelli was cooked did she add the various seasoning packets, and the broth inside was bubbling.
There was a sour smell in the air.
"Little Doctor, this... is this thing really edible? Why does it stink so bad?"
"Yeah, this smell is terrible."
Everyone covered their noses.
"Uncle Luo, this smells bad, but tastes super delicious."
Ruanruan quickly explained to them.
"You can give it a try."
Ruanruan used chopsticks to pick up the vermicelli, but it kept slipping into the pot. Cuilan next to her came over to help her put it into the bowl.
"This soup looks very bright and fresh. It can't be what the little doctor said."
