"As for how to make her self-destruct, that's up to you!"
"As long as you win over Aunt Zhou, I can give you money, and even let you have plastic surgery at a top hospital abroad!"
The cosmetic surgery industry is more developed abroad than in China, so they can definitely repair the burns on her face. Then, with these secrets in her possession, she can get a large sum of money from the shareholders to live on.
She'll definitely keep her "rich, beautiful, and successful" persona from being exposed.
Su Qingjiao was deeply moved.
She gritted her teeth and agreed, "Okay, I will give you a satisfactory answer before the festival."
"Heh, then I'll wait for good news."
The shareholder hung up the phone, satisfied.
Three days passed quickly.
After resting in the hospital for three full days, Zhou Yi was finally able to get out of bed and walk around.
The burns on my back are slowly scabbing over.
As long as he is careful when moving around and doesn't tear open the wound, he won't suffer secondary damage to his back.
The doctor advised him to stay in bed for a few more days until all the wounds on his back had scabbed over, at which point he could walk around freely.
But Zhou Yi was only thinking about checking on his grandmother's health, so he immediately asked the caregiver to help him to his grandmother's ward.
After sending both caregivers away, Zhou Yi placed his hand on his grandmother's pulse.
Grandma lay on the hospital bed with her eyes closed and half of her hair white. Her condition was like a candle that was about to go out, gradually weakening because it had run out of fuel.
These subtle changes can only be detected by taking a pulse.
On the cold, hard equipment, Grandma's heartbeat was slow but strong, and all the readings were normal.
Only after Zhou Yi took her pulse did he realize that his grandmother's health was gradually weakening.
This weakness cannot be remedied simply by supplementing with nutrients; it is caused by the patient's prolonged bed rest leading to physical atrophy.
If she doesn't wake up in another year or so, then Grandma really won't wake up again.
With Zhou Yi's medical skills at this point, he was unable to find the cause of his grandmother's illness, let alone save her.
However, the rewards given by the system were not useless. Having obtained basic medical skills, he was not only able to know the actual condition of his grandmother's body, but also to adjust her medication accordingly, so that she would not continue to weaken.
As for reviving Grandma, it seems we'll have to wait until we acquire advanced medical skills.
The two caregivers were chatting outside the door when Zhou Yi called them in and asked them to bring paper and pen. He then neatly wrote down the names and dosages of the medicines on the paper.
"If the pharmacy doesn't have these medicines, go to a pharmacy outside to buy them! Make sure you buy all the medicines listed above."
"Use my card to swipe!"
"Your errand fee is one thousand each!" Zhou Yi took out a credit card, told the two of them the PIN, and then told them to take the prescription to buy the medicine.
About an hour later, the two caregivers returned one after the other.
"Young Master Zhou, there are a few of the herbs in these medicines that we've searched all over the pharmacies for but haven't been able to find."
"Luckily, I was able to buy it at a traditional Chinese medicine shop that has been open for decades."
The caregiver who was looking after the grandmother was worried that Zhou Yi was getting too impatient, so she explained to him as soon as she entered the room.
Zhou Yi sat on the sofa, nodded calmly, pointed to the table, and asked the two to put the medicinal herbs they had bought on the table.
After preparing all the medicines according to the proportions, Zhou Yi pointed to the medicine packets on the left side of the table and instructed, "These medicine packets are for external use. Take one packet home each day and boil it. Don't use too much water in the pot, about the amount in a thermos."
"After that, I soaked the towels I bought in the solution, brought them from home, and wiped my grandma's body every day."
Seeing the two caregivers nod hesitantly, Zhou Yi pointed to the medicine packet on the right and instructed them on what to do.
After everything was explained, Zhou Yi could guess the caregiver's displeasure even without looking up. He curled his lips and said:
"Starting today, your caregiver's salary will be doubled!"
Immediately, the caregiver's face lit up with an excited smile. They were all working people, and who would be happy to see their workload increase?
But it's different if you pay more!
The caregiver thought happily, "So all this work wasn't for nothing! It's such a small thing, but I've doubled my efforts! I'll definitely do my best!"
The two caregivers immediately nodded and said, "Young Master Zhou, don't worry, I will definitely do as you ask and take good care of the old lady."
Zhou Yi nodded, then added, "You don't need to tell anyone about these things beforehand."
"As long as the two of you know, that's enough!"
"For helping Grandma with the medicinal bath and wiping her body, you can take turns working one day, and your wages will be doubled."
Upon hearing Zhou Yi's words, both caregivers' faces lit up with ecstatic joy.
The workload has actually decreased!
And the shifts change every day, who wouldn't be happy!
Both women immediately assured Zhou Yi that they would not say a word, and that they would keep quiet even to their families.
Zhou Yi didn't say anything more and had the caregiver help him back.
Zhou Yi was not a flamboyant person to begin with, and he did not want outsiders to know that he was skilled in medicine for the time being.
After all, the best cards are the ones that can be hidden.
Now, whether it's the secret murderer who killed her parents, the shareholders who are plotting in the company, or the Su mother and daughter who have been lying in wait, she has too many skills, which only arouses their sense of crisis.
What I need now is to lull everyone into a false sense of security!
Fooled everyone!
Before Zhou Yi could even make a move, Su Qingjiao couldn't wait to strike first.
As soon as Zhou Yi returned to his ward, he saw Aunt Zhou walk in carrying a thermos.
"Xiao Yi, I asked the family chef to make you some soup."
"I heard that this soup contains two Chinese medicinal herbs that can help burns heal faster."
Aunt Zhou would come to the hospital every day to chat with Zhou Yi. Zhou Yi knew that Aunt Zhou had been preparing for company matters and dealing with shareholders these days, so he advised her that if she was too tired, she didn't need to come.
But Aunt Zhou agreed verbally, and still came over every day.
"Is it about treating the symptoms rather than the root cause? Actually, I think I can be discharged from the hospital after a few more days of rest for my back injury."
"Auntie, you really don't need to come every day."
Zhou Yi took the soup from Aunt Zhou. The aroma that wafted towards him was very appealing, but he didn't drink it immediately. He had been very cautious lately, and he would smell it carefully each time.
However, upon smelling it, he discovered a very faint fishy odor within the fragrance.
This fishy smell is not like the fishy smell of fish, chicken, or duck.
It's not the smell of a medicine, but the fishy smell of a drug.
If I hadn't suddenly acquired basic medical skills, I probably wouldn't have been able to smell this aroma. There was actually a drop of medicine added to this soup.
Just one drop of the medicine can cause breathing difficulties.
For ordinary people, as long as they receive timely treatment, there is not much danger.
