Chapter 299 How could he be so cruel to his own mother?
"I dare not speak nonsense, but I beg you to do justice for the old lady." The nanny kowtowed again, stood up and walked out. "The doctor said that the fastest way to cure the old lady is to bleed her. She asked me to find a wine cup and go in."
Feng Liang supported his shaky brother-in-law, wanting to say something but stopping himself. He couldn't say much about the Liu family. His wife was not actually the biological daughter of the Liu family, but was fostered in name only. However, the couple was honest, and Liu Sanqian always treated them as family members.
The old lady gave birth to only one son and one daughter in her lifetime. The eldest daughter and Liu Sanqian were her biological children, and the others were not.
"My elder sister is so hateful!" Liu Sanqian fell to the ground, covered his face and cried bitterly, "Just because I have no children, my mother did not agree to adopt her grandson back to the Liu family, so she held a grudge and thought of such a vicious way to harm me."
Feng Liang squatted beside him, patted his back and comforted him: "Don't be discouraged, isn't there a good doctor in front of you? Since she can see the problem with your body, I believe she will be able to solve it."
Hearing this, Liu Sanqian forgot to cry. With red eyes, he stood up instantly and grabbed Feng Liang's hand: "Brother-in-law, are you serious? Can this Doctor Du treat my illness?"
"Whether it's true or not, you'll know after you show her." Feng Liang comforted Liu Sanqian, "Don't be discouraged. I think the medical skills of this Doctor Du are unmatched by ordinary people. She is actually a woman who dressed like a man for the convenience of practicing medicine."
Liu Sanqian's jaw almost dropped to the ground in shock: "What? She's a woman? A woman? Can a woman be a doctor?"
"You, isn't your second sister also a woman? Didn't she also help me open a shop?" Feng Liang felt that Liu Sanqian was making a fuss. "What's wrong with women? There are many capable women."
Don't underestimate women. If you anger them, you will suffer. Your eldest sister is also a woman. Look how powerful she is. She even covets her mother's family property.
The nanny brought the wine cup over, and Liu Sanqian followed her into the room, and even Feng Liang followed. When they heard that bloodletting was needed for treatment, they were really a little worried.
The old lady was very old and had been ill for some time. She couldn't eat or sleep and looked very haggard.
What if something goes wrong during the bloodletting process? They have to watch from the side, otherwise they will be worried.
When the nanny went out to get the wine cups, Du Wanwan stuffed a pill into the old lady's mouth. It was a blood-replenishing pill made with spiritual spring water.
It was originally prepared for women giving birth in Liangjun City. It has been kept in the space for fear that someone would suffer a heavy bleeding and use it to resist for a while when their life is hanging by a thread, and it can save the life from the hands of the King of Hell.
I didn't expect that it would be used on the old lady in the Liu Mansion today.
The old man was so frail that only bloodletting could force out the poison that had already entered his blood. Without bloodletting, relying solely on medication, the effect would probably not be as fast and thorough as bloodletting.
The poison in the incense is very strong. Once inhaled, it enters the lungs, causing discomfort to the internal organs and entering the blood. Although the dosage is not large, it is enough for an elderly person.
The old lady held the medicine in her mouth, and soon she felt her drowsy mind became much clearer, and her breathing became stronger, not as uncomfortably breathless as before.
This doctor is really skilled in medicine and his pills are very effective.
"Old lady! Bleeding will make you recover faster. I will use silver needles to protect your heart meridians. It will be a little painful when bleeding. Just bear with the discomfort and you will be well soon."
The old lady nodded slightly: "I'm not afraid of pain."
How could the pain in the body be compared to the pain in the heart? She had raised her eldest daughter with all her love and care, and she had married her off with a grand wedding. Although she married a poor scholar, her son-in-law was quite capable and was now a fourth-rank official.
Everyone in the Liu family put the couple first. They never expected that she would attack her mother just because they did not agree to her request for offspring.
She knows her own body well. She doesn't have any serious illness, at most she has back pain. But since she started using this incense, she has become too lazy to move and has weak limbs.
In the end, I felt so sick that I didn’t want to eat, and even one meal a day was difficult to digest.
The son invited many doctors to see her but none of them could find the problem. The eldest daughter even said she would ask someone to find the imperial physician to see her. After a long search, no one could find the doctor. They kept putting the problem on the table.
If the doctor had not come to see her today, she would never have suspected the incense.
In order to take away the Liu family's property, she wanted her beloved daughter to die immediately. What about the imperial physician who encountered various problems? I'm afraid he didn't even go to ask for it.
The old lady closed her eyes and tears rolled down her cheeks. Liu Sanqian came in and saw her, and knelt down in front of the bed.
"Mom! You must take care of yourself and watch your grandson being born. Doctor Du saw what was wrong with my son at a glance. After she examined you, I begged her to take a look at me. With her medical skills, she will definitely be able to cure my son."
Du Wanwan, who was preparing silver needles, turned her head and glanced at Liu Sanqian: "Your illness is probably caused by a hernia attack when you were a child that was not completely cleared up, and it has accumulated under your lower abdomen. Three acupuncture treatments, combined with medication, will heal quickly. It's not a big problem."
"Really?" The old lady sat up in surprise, looking at Du Wanwan as if she had seen a bodhisattva who saves people from suffering, "Doctor Du! You are amazing.
My son did have a hernia when he was a child. His area was swollen and red like a carrot. Although it recovered later, it left a root of the disease. "
After hearing what his mother said, Liu Sanqian lowered his head to his chest and didn't dare to raise his face.
My mother didn't know that Dr. Du was a woman, and it was really embarrassing for him to talk about his childhood in front of her, especially about that place.
"Don't get excited, old lady. Let's do it one by one. First, let your blood flow, and then we can see what's wrong with Boss Liu."
Du Wanwan asked the nanny to help the old lady lie down, preparing to give her an injection to protect her heart and lungs and to bleed her.
Liu Sanqian stood up and stood aside. The old lady lay down and Du Wanwan started giving her acupuncture.
When it was over, the old lady stretched out her hand, cut a cut on her wrist, and the nanny held the wine cup to catch it.
A stream of black blood spurted out and fell into the wine cup.
Feng Liang's eyes widened when he saw this, but he didn't dare to say anything. Liu Sanqian had the same expression as him, with deep anger in his eyes.
If my mother hadn’t met Dr. Du, perhaps she would never have known who killed her.
Once his mother died, he would be disheartened. His eldest sister said that if she wanted to adopt a child, it would be successful in nine out of ten cases. His mother was a strong-willed person. All the aunts in the family became grandmothers, but she did not. She often complained about this in private.
The reason why he was not given an adoptive son was because he was waiting for his illness to recover so that he could have his own child.
He waited and waited until he was 28 years old. If Dr. Du could cure his illness and give birth to a child, he would be grateful for the rest of his life.
Mammy's eyes were red, and she couldn't help crying. The eldest girl was really too cruel, how could she be so cruel to her own mother?
Is this still a human being?
