Chapter 73 Future Plans
"Doctor Shen, come and take my pulse."
While she was thinking, the village chief had already persuaded Chen.
Looking at this young girl, Chen's heart was calm.
She has seen so many doctors, but none of them can do anything for her illness. What else can this little girl do?
The condition was a bit complicated, so Shen Jinan took the pulse for a while and then nodded to the village chief.
The village chief understood, settled Chen down, and said, "I'll go see Doctor Shen off."
Chen nodded, without any objection or expectation.
"The phlegm and fire disturbing the heart can be cured by prescribing some medicine, but the madam's palpitations may be related to her heart knot." Shen Jinan's face was as gloomy as water, and he was sure that this matter was related to Chen Nianheng.
In recent years, Chen's illness has recurred due to excessive worry and sadness. The lesions have accumulated in the body for a long time, and it will take time to remove them.
“Is there any way to treat it?” The village chief grabbed Shen Jinan’s arm as if he had grabbed a life-saving straw.
Over the years, he has hired many doctors to treat Chen's illness, but with little success. He even feels heartbroken and guilty as he sees Chen getting worse day by day.
"It will take six months to cure the disease completely with medication and acupuncture, but after a month, you can move around freely."
She calculated and conservatively estimated that it would take this long.
"Treat her!" The village chief gritted his teeth, unable to bear to watch Chen lose hope of life day by day. "Let Doctor Shen start acupuncture tomorrow. I'll go and persuade her."
Shen Jinan nodded. The sooner the treatment started, the better it would be for Chen's health.
The village chief turned and walked into the house. When his foot was about to step over the threshold, he said something quickly and walked towards Chen.
Shen Jinan curled his lips slightly, and got the news.
Inside the house, Chen looked at the village chief and smiled a little forcedly: "Then who invited Doctor Shen to treat me?"
She knew everything in her heart, and nothing could be hidden from her.
"Yes, Heng'er hasn't come back yet. Aren't you still waiting to see Heng'er with your own eyes?" The village chief lowered his eyes, his voice choked with sobs.
In the past, he coaxed Chen to cooperate with the treatment in this way, and Chen would take the medicine obediently.
"There has been no news about Heng'er for so many years. I'm afraid..." She had some guesses in her heart, but she just didn't want to believe it.
He was ambushed on the battlefield and disappeared for several years. I'm afraid he is already in danger.
"If he's alive, I want to see him. If he's dead, I want to see his body. I have to see it with my own eyes." The village chief, tears in his eyes, sat beside her and whispered, "Do you still remember that little tiger from Chen Ming's family?"
"Yesterday, he was pushed into the water. When he was rescued, his face was blue and purple, and he was already dead. Doctor Shen pulled him back from the brink of death."
"Doctor Shen is a highly skilled doctor. There's nothing she can't cure."
Even the village chief himself didn't realize that when he mentioned Shen Jinan, he unconsciously spoke with some praise.
If she was not a family member of a corrupt official, I would have treated her as a guest of honor long ago.
What a pity...
He suppressed the expression in his eyes and thought, forget it, these things have nothing to do with Shen Jinan, and he shouldn't take his anger out on her.
"She said it only takes a month for you to get better. Let's try it for a month. If there's no effect after a month, then we can't treat it anymore?"
Sure enough, hesitation appeared in Chen's eyes, and she said uncertainly, "Then let's try it first."
The child in Chen Ming's family is also pitiful. They are an orphan and a widow, and I don't know how they can hold on.
"Then let Doctor Shen give you acupuncture tomorrow." The village chief was very happy.
Thinking of tomorrow's treatment, the village chief couldn't help but look forward to it. Shen Jinan's medical skills are so superb, there must be no problem!
After all, she can even bring the dead back from the brink of death!
Not long after, Shen Jinan also returned home.
Sui Sui Huan Huan had arrived home early and was sitting obediently on a small stool, pestering Gu Yanqing to tell them stories.
A gentle voice rang in my ears, different from the voice I usually heard from him.
When talking about some truths, Gu Yanqing's voice became a little serious.
Thinking of the various tutoring classes that the children attended in her previous life, she suddenly realized that in this dynasty, children seemed to be enlightened quite early. Although Suisui and Huanhuan were young, they had also reached the age of enlightenment.
In the past, Gu Yanqing was busy with court affairs and inevitably neglected his children's education. Now is a good opportunity.
In this remote place, it is not necessarily possible to hire a good enlightenment teacher, so it is better to let Gu Yanqing teach the children personally.
She didn't ask for great achievements in his later years, but she hoped that he would be sensible and have a clear conscience when doing things in the future.
As for Huanhuan, she only hopes that in the future she will be able to distinguish right from wrong and not be bound by the shackles of this world.
She felt at ease knowing that the Prime Minister was teaching her personally and she had set a good example.
As I thought about it, I unconsciously expressed my thoughts.
"Madam, you are right. It is my husband who has not considered it carefully." Gu Yanqing smiled, moved closer to Shen Jinan, and whispered softly in her ear.
Those black eyes were filled with affection, and the voice was like a refreshing breeze.
The sound passed by Shen Jinan's ears and went straight to her heart. She felt half of her body was numb, her cheeks flushed slightly, and she glared at him shyly.
"The child is still here, why are you getting so close..."
"I understand, husband. We have to clean up the other bedroom as soon as possible." Gu Yanqing suppressed his laughter and coughed lightly.
What? What bedroom? Who's going to live in it?
That's not what she thought!
The child is only about three years old!
This isn't my biological father!
Shen Jinan was too embarrassed to ask, and Gu Yanqing didn't plan to say anything more. Instead, he continued to read stories to the two children.
She sat aside, wondering whether that was what he meant.
The matchmaker who lived next door was elusive and often not in the village.
But she felt relaxed and comfortable when Shen Jinan was not around.
It’s just that she would show up at the dinner table on time every day, even more punctual than Shen Jinan herself.
"I heard that your mother and sister were locked up?"
Putting down the bowl and chopsticks, Hongniang felt satisfied.
The food at the Gu family was better than what she usually ate in the inner city. Since coming to the Gu family, she had never set foot in the Hongfang Pavilion again.
The food that she used to think was delicious now tasted like blandness, which made her even more curious about the creators of these delicacies.
Although she was not in the village, her secret guards would report news about Shen Jinan to Hong Niangzi on time.
"Thank you for your concern, but we have separated a long time ago and have no relationship anymore." Shen Jinan paused while eating, but still answered.
"I don't think so." Hong Niang leaned back on her soft chair, her red lips parted, "Didn't I go to deliver something to them today?"
He also looked at Gu Yanqing meaningfully, as if with some sarcasm.
When these words came out, Shen Jinan was extremely shocked. How could she know?
Then wouldn't she know what I did? Could she have installed a surveillance camera on me?
Even Gu Yanqing's gaze fell on her.
Shen Jinan didn't panic, but just smiled and said naturally: "Then don't you know what I'm going to do?"
