Chapter 129: What's the use of your agreement?
Lu Ye paced back and forth in the courtyard, feeling as if each day was an eternity.
Bai Zhi and Ye Rufeng were having a very pleasant conversation inside the house.
Just as Bai Zhi had thought, her grandfather, as expected of a knowledgeable and skilled doctor, was quite receptive to her story about rebirth.
After confirming that she was his granddaughter, he naturally accepted and believed everything else.
"Tell me more about your rebirth. You said you married a different man in your previous life?"
Bai Zhi lowered her eyes and recounted in detail how, in her previous life, after getting engaged to Zhao Kai, she went to work in Bincheng and met him at Derentang Hospital while treating his illness.
Then, he recounted Lu Ye's fate in his previous life.
“Grandpa, the death of Lu Ye in our previous life touched us deeply, which is why you took me to Yunwu Mountain to study traditional Chinese medicine detoxification methods.”
Ye Rufeng listened with a solemn expression and a heavy heart.
Ye Rufeng said to Bai Zhi, "Tell me about Lu Ye's current situation."
"He was poisoned by several kinds of drugs, probably injected in combination, and was also shot. His condition was extremely critical. If I hadn't used the traditional Chinese medicine detoxification therapy we developed in our previous life to save him, he probably would have been in grave danger."
Ye Rufeng, a medical enthusiast, was very interested in the traditional Chinese medicine detoxification methods described by Bai Zhi.
He couldn't believe he would actually set out to develop an antidote for hallucinogenic drugs.
After Bai Zhi was reborn, she changed Lu Ye's fate.
Since traditional Chinese medicine detoxification therapies already exist, it's highly unlikely that he will research this topic in the future.
"Grandpa, when are you coming back with me?"
Ye Rufeng shook his head. "I can't go back yet. I have a patient here, and I'm working on a prescription for him. I'll talk about it after I've cured him."
"A prescription for a heart attack? Can I see it?" Bai Zhi looked at him with bright eyes.
Ye Rufeng's lips twitched slightly.
It's a good thing that this girl has memories of her past life, but it's not entirely a good thing either.
From now on, he will have no secrets from her.
She even knew how much money he made.
That's terrifying.
Thinking of this, Ye Rufeng's expression turned resentful. He took out the prescription and slapped it in front of Bai Zhi, "Here you go."
Bai Zhi picked up the prescription and examined it carefully.
"Grandpa, we should replace this medicine with Arisaema, otherwise the patient will easily experience stomach acid after taking it."
"How did you come up with that?" Ye Rufeng asked, his eyes widening in astonishment.
The patient reported experiencing stomach acid and bloating after taking the medication for the past two days.
Bai Zhi shrugged. "It was you who came up with it later. In my previous life, this prescription contained Arisaema."
"Try it on someone else instead."
"Really?" Ye Rufeng looked at her in astonishment to confirm, "It really was what I thought of?"
Bai Zhi nodded firmly, "Really."
Ye Rufeng looked at the prescription that Bai Zhi had modified repeatedly, muttering to himself. After a long while, he sighed, "Wonderful."
Angelica dahurica easily solved the problem that had been troubling Ye for many days.
Ye Rufeng's mood also became unusually relaxed.
"By the way, when are you going to give that soldier acupuncture? I'd like to observe." Even his tone towards Bai Zhi became polite.
Bai Zhi smiled and said, "Grandpa, it should be 'guidance'."
"I'll go get someone; he can receive acupuncture right now."
Bai Zhi happily got up and went out.
Upon opening the door, one could see Lu Ye walking around the yard with his head down, stepping on ants.
But Xie Zheng was nowhere to be seen.
"Lu Ye, get ready, I'm going to give you acupuncture."
Lu Ye heard the girl's voice, and suddenly looked up.
When he met the girl's eyes, which were as bright as stars, his heart skipped a beat.
"Now?" he asked.
Bai Zhi nodded, "Yes, my grandfather will be there to give guidance."
"There's a well over there. Go get a large bucket of water. Is the water on the stove hot enough? Mix some warm water and wash up. Come in."
"Okay, I'll be there soon."
Lu Ye sensed that the girl's attitude towards him had not changed at all; she was still as warm and enthusiastic as usual.
He finally felt relieved and hurried to fetch water.
Bai Zhi washed her hands and began preparing to disinfect the silver needles.
After Lu Ye finished washing up, he came in and sat on Ye Rufeng's bed.
Bai Zhi began to receive acupuncture.
In order not to let Lu Ye see through her act, she humbly asked her grandfather for advice, "Grandpa, look, I'm inserting these acupoints, is that alright?"
"Yes, no problem."
Ye Rufeng stroked his beard, looking completely at ease. "Now I'll test you. What kind of therapeutic effect does needling the calf area have?"
Bai Zhi explained, "This can promote blood circulation and remove blood stasis."
"What about this acupoint?" Ye Rufeng pointed to the acupoint behind the earlobe.
"This has a calming effect."
Bai Zhi explained the principles of acupuncture detoxification therapy to him in detail. After she finished speaking, she looked at Ye Rufeng with bright eyes, seeking praise, "Grandpa, what I said was all correct, right?"
Ye Rufeng coughed lightly and continued stroking his beard. "Not bad."
He asked Bai Zhi, "How long have you been treating him?"
"After more than a month, the condition has stabilized, but it will still take time to completely eliminate the residual drug toxins in the body." Bai Zhi was professional and focused. Her slightly immature face was so confident and charming when she talked about work, especially her eyes, which shone.
"You're staying at their house?" Ye Rufeng asked.
"No, I don't live at the Lu family's house."
"Was your engagement arranged by your elders?"
Ye Rufeng looked at the two of them and asked.
Bai Zhi replied, "Yes, my grandfather and Grandpa Lu were comrades-in-arms, and the engagement was arranged by the two elders."
Upon hearing this, Ye Rufeng seemed to be deep in thought. "So, it turns out that your marriage to him was just an arranged marriage by your parents, nothing more."
Ye Rufeng scoffed at those eight words. He looked at Bai Zhi very seriously and made his stance clear: "Granddaughter, this is a new era. Society has long been liberated. Young people are now in a state of free love. Arranged marriages and childhood betrothals are outdated and feudal products that we must abolish."
I just heard my granddaughter tell me about her treatment experience with Lu Ye. It seems that at first, many people didn't believe in her, this young girl. It was she who earned their trust by pricking them with silver needles one by one.
Standing in the shoes of the patients and their families, Ye Rufeng naturally understood their attitudes very well.
Anyone who isn't a fool, who values their life, and who is responsible for their family's health, wouldn't easily believe a young girl's words and risk letting her treat their illness.
This process of building trust is inevitably a process in which Bai Zhi proves her medical skills.
But as Bai Zhi's maternal grandfather, he felt sorry for her when he thought about how she was all alone in the military hospital, confronting those so-called experts, and having to endure pressure from the Lu family.
I got angry too.
His granddaughter even brought up his name, yet he still doesn't trust her?
snort.
It was all to save that brat Lu Ye's life.
Upon hearing Ye Rufeng's words, Lu Ye trembled slightly in shock.
Bai Zhi frowned and reminded her, "Don't move, you have acupuncture needles in you."
Lu Ye steadied himself, took two deep breaths, and respectfully said, "Grandpa Ye, this marriage arrangement wasn't entirely the old man's idea; I also agreed to it myself."
Ye Rufeng rolled her eyes at him. "What's the use of your agreement?"
Lu Ye, “.......”
"It can only be done with my granddaughter's consent."
Ye Rufeng looked at Bai Zhi with doting eyes, giving her confidence and a sense of security. "Xiao Zhi, now that I'm backing you up, you should boldly ask yourself what your attitude is towards this guy. There are thousands of men in the world, if one doesn't work out, we'll find another. You're only in your early twenties, we have plenty of resources and opportunities, we absolutely cannot settle for someone just because of other objective reasons."
If it doesn't work, we can change it?
Lu Ye's heart skipped a beat, and he looked at Bai Zhi nervously, waiting for her to make a statement.
His eyes were brimming with unspoken words. He even looked at her with pleading eyes and cautiously raised his hand in a gesture of respect.
He gestured for her to be gentle with her words.
Bai Zhi, “…”
