Chapter 643: Follow the doctor's instructions and take the lead

Gu Xiaoxi nodded slightly, "Of course it's true. Did you turn off the lights at night and hide under the quilt to read every day for the college entrance examination?"

Yan Li widened his eyes in astonishment, "Sister-in-law, you can guess this!"

Upon hearing this, Wei Mingyu could not help but glare at her son. "You want to read, but you can't turn on the light? If you turn on the light, can I still scold you?"

Yan Li said awkwardly: "Mom, you scolded me, have you forgotten?"

Wei Mingyu: “…”

Yan Xueqi coughed lightly and said, "You little brat, your mother wants you to rest early. Who doesn't work hard during the day and stays up late to read books every night?"

"Good living habits are also very important. Having good eyesight is very important for soldiers, and it is the same for military doctors. In fact, people with good eyesight in life can save a lot of trouble compared to those who wear glasses. Go lie on the sofa and I will give you acupuncture."

Gu Xiaoxi signaled Lu Jiansen, who was sitting on the sofa, to move aside.

Lu Jiansen quickly stood up and let his cousin lie down.

Gu Xiaoxi even went to the kitchen to wash her hands before starting to give acupuncture to Yan Li.

During the acupuncture, she also used the eye-clearing technique, and then said to her aunt, "Aunt, ask Yan Li to come to my house tomorrow. I will prepare a special eye drop for him. Ask him to come and get it at noon."

Wei Mingyu nodded quickly, "Okay. I'll go with him tomorrow."

After the silver needle was pricked, Gu Xiaoxi specially told Yan Li, "If you feel uncomfortable in the future, you can tell me immediately. If you are slow to write, just call me. You said that if you really wanted to be a soldier, it would be a pity to give up because of your eyesight. If there is a better choice, don't settle for the second best."

She said this because she actually felt that Yan Li was not that interested in studying medicine.

Yan Li admires Lu Jiansen very much and has always taken him as a role model. He probably wants to be a soldier more.

Sure enough, Yan Li quickly said, "If my eyesight recovers and I pass the physical examination, I will definitely join the army."

Brother Jiansen has always been his role model. In fact, he has wanted to be a soldier since he was a child.

Applying to Peking University was actually his mother's idea, not his.

Half an hour later, Gu Xiaoxi took away the silver needle and asked his aunt to apply a hot towel to Yan Li's eyes again.

After the towel was taken away, Yanli felt that his eyes, which had been sore and swollen for several days, were much more comfortable and he could see things clearly.

He was so happy that he immediately took a book.

His eyes lit up when he saw that the handwriting on the book was no longer blurred.

"I...I feel my eyesight is much better! I really want to get my eyesight tested right now."

"Go get the test tomorrow! Get a good rest tonight. Don't read in a low-light environment in the future. And don't hide under the quilt and read with a flashlight. It's best to use a desk lamp when reading and writing! In addition, if your eyes feel itchy or uncomfortable, don't rub your eyes hard..." Gu Xiaoxi gave a few serious instructions.

"I understand. I will definitely pay attention to it in the future. Thank you, sister-in-law!" Yan Li nodded obediently.

His sister-in-law is so nice!

"Aunt, since we are free now, why don't I take your and uncle's pulse?" Gu Xiaoxi said suddenly.

Because of this serious matter, she suddenly felt the need to do this experience for her family every year.

Now I will check my aunt's pulse here first, and then I will check my grandpa and parents when I get back.

Wei Mingyu smiled and nodded, then immediately extended his hand.

"I have trouble sleeping these past two days, Xiaoxi, can you help me?"

Gu Xiaoxi felt her pulse, then smiled and said, "Aunt, you are a little irritated, but it's not serious. It's probably because Yanli's matter has made you worry too much. I'll go back and make you a soup to clear your heat, and you can drink it tomorrow at noon."

Wei Mingyu nodded, "Okay, I'll go there tomorrow at noon."

After that, she hurriedly urged her husband, "You also check Xiaoxi's pulse. I feel your condition should be more serious than mine."

Yan Xueqi had no choice but to stretch out his hand for Xiaoxi to diagnose his pulse.

After taking the pulse, Gu Xiaoxi's expression became unusually serious.

"Uncle, you eat too irregularly and have stomach problems. Work is important, but health is more important. Didn't your leaders tell you that health is the capital of revolution? You should set an example..."

Yan Xueqi was scolded, and Wei Mingyu immediately laughed.

"See! See! I told you that you don't eat well and that's why you feel uncomfortable from time to time. I told you that you didn't listen, and now Xiaoxi is saying the same thing. I tell you, Lao Yan, your health is the capital of the revolution. You must obey the doctor's orders and take the lead."

Yan Xueqi coughed lightly and quickly corrected his attitude, "I understand. I will pay attention next time."

"You need to take care of your stomach. Auntie, why don't you come to my house early tomorrow and I'll teach you how to make some stomach-nourishing medicinal meals! This will slowly cure your uncle's stomach problems, and you can eat them on a regular basis."

Wei Mingyu nodded immediately. "Okay, I'll go there early tomorrow morning. Do you need to buy any ingredients? I'll go buy them in the morning."

"No need, I'll prepare the ingredients." Gu Xiaoxi decided that tomorrow she would not only teach her aunt about medicinal cuisine, but also teach her mother and Aunt Yilan.

After staying at her aunt's house for another half an hour, Gu Xiaoxi and Lu Jiansen took the two babies home first.

When I got home, I saw my grandfather and my parents were in the living room listening to the radio, waiting for them to come back.

Gu Xiaoxi sat directly next to his grandfather and took his pulse.

Grandpa Jiang smiled and said, "I've been feeling very well lately, and I'm not feeling unwell anywhere."

Gu Xiaoxi let go of her grandfather's hand and pressed the acupoints on the palm of his hand.

"Grandpa is in good health, but he sometimes has trouble sleeping and has a headache. If he has trouble sleeping, light some calming incense. Don't be frugal, I still have plenty. If you feel uncomfortable anywhere, tell my parents, tell me." Gu Xiaoxi reminded him worriedly.

Grandpa Jiang didn't want Xiaoxi to worry, so he smiled and nodded, "I know, I know. As soon as you came back from outside, you asked me to check your pulse. What happened?"

Lu Jiansen was listening nearby and mentioned Yan Li's matter.

Grandpa Jiang suddenly realized, "So that's how it is. Don't worry, if we really feel uncomfortable somewhere, we will definitely tell you."

"Yes. Dad, Mom, you come over here too. I'll take your pulse too."

Jiang Xiuqing and Gu Yimin looked at each other, but still quickly sat down.

It doesn't take much time to take my daughter's pulse, and it will put my daughter at ease.

After taking the pulse, Gu Xiaoxi called his aunt, who was boiling water in the kitchen, over and took her pulse as well.

Jiang Xiuqing saw that her daughter did not speak after taking her pulse, so she asked in confusion: "Am I healthy? I really don't feel unwell recently."

"Yeah. Nothing serious. You just have a bit of uterine cold and a lot of dampness in your body. My dad just has a bit of kidney deficiency. My aunt probably still has some insomnia. She looks fine on the surface, but she's still depressed."

Jiang Xiuqing: “…”

Gu Yilan: “…”
