Chapter 68 No longer a germaphobe?
After a short rest following the meal, Lin Yi'an and Grandma Lin each examined the two individuals.
The young girl looked somewhat familiar to Lin Yi'an, but considering she was an artist under Quan Zisong's company, it wasn't surprising. She figured she had seen her in videos on her phone before. She said, "Let me take your pulse first."
The girl hesitated for a moment, but with the boss standing to the side, she couldn't do anything else, so she could only extend her hand for him to take her pulse.
After taking her pulse, Lin Yi'an looked at her and said, "Excessive dieting will deplete your vital energy, leading to irregular menstruation and general weakness..."
Her assistant said, "She's still dizzy and gets breathless after walking just a few steps."
Lin Yi-an: "If you don't have enough energy in your body and your qi and blood are weak, you'll get dizzy."
After saying that, she picked up the prescription and asked, "What's your name?"
The girl glanced at her and asked, "Don't you recognize me?"
Quan Zisong said impatiently, "Just tell me your name when I ask. Do you really think that just because you have some online following, everyone knows you?"
The girl pursed her lips: "Cai Zixin, Cai as in Cai Lun, Zi as in purple, and Xin as in flourishing."
Lin Yi'an didn't pay attention and wrote her name on the prescription: "How old are you?"
Cai Zixin: "24 years old."
Lin Yi'an: "I'll prescribe some medicine for you. If you're not feeling well, go lie down on the treatment bed."
Cai Zixin was surprised that she could tell she was not feeling well: "Are you in the treatment room next door?"
The massage therapist we hired was surnamed Qin and named Qin Meiyun. Dr. Qin walked over and said, "Let me help you inside."
After Lin Yi'an wrote out the prescription, she gave it to Ye Lingzhi and asked her to get the medicine.
Quan Zisong looked at Lin Yi'an: "How long will it take for her body to recover?"
Lin Yi-an: "One to three months."
The male celebrity next to him was taken aback and asked, "Will my acne clear up in a week?"
Grandma Lin: "It won't be that fast, it takes time to adjust."
Male celebrity: "Can you hurry up? I still have to go on a show."
Quan Zisong said, "If you want to get it done quickly, go for cosmetic surgery."
Grandma Lin didn't mind and said with a smile, "Now that technology is advanced, you can get rid of acne with cosmetic procedures, but with your constitution, you may still get acne in the future, so you need to regulate your body internally."
Quan Zisong: "When we consider things from their perspective, they become unhappy instead."
The male celebrity kept his head down and didn't speak. The company has many artists, and the competition is fierce. Everyone is vying for resources. If he doesn't get on shows for a while, he might be replaced. Besides, he doesn't have Cai Zixin's popularity or substantial work. His main purpose in coming here was to help Cai Zixin recuperate...
After preparing the medicine, Ye Lingzhi called over their assistant and taught them how to decoct it.
Since there were no other patients today, Grandma Lin asked her son and daughter-in-law to take her granddaughter and grandson-in-law to the mountain to burn incense.
Lin Yi'an: "...Are you really going?"
Grandma Lin said sternly, "Go quickly, have a vegetarian meal at the temple at noon and then come back."
Lin Yi'an looked at Zhou Mingshi and asked, "Are you going?"
Zhou Mingshi: "We'll listen to Grandma."
Lin Yi'an stood up: "Then let's go."
Quan Zisong asked, "Why do you suddenly want to go to the temple?"
Lin Shuhe sighed and said, "Mingshi's car was smashed yesterday. His grandmother said they should go to the mountain temple to burn incense and pray to Buddha to get rid of the bad luck."
Quan Zisong stood up abruptly: "Which stubborn fool dared to smash your car?"
He had just finished speaking when Aunt Lin's husband and son drove up.
As soon as Uncle Lin arrived, he called her "Mother".
Grandma Lin said sternly, "Don't call me 'Mom,' I'm not your mom."
Aunt Lin's son, Zhang Weiping, came over and said, "Grandma, when my mom went back yesterday, I told her off. She's really confused, she can't tell right from wrong, and she meddles in everything."
Grandma Lin's expression softened a bit when she heard his words.
Zhang Weiping added, “Last night, Li Damang’s son, Li Dongsheng, came back from the county town to see us, wanting us to put in a good word for him. My father and I didn’t agree. He looked a little unwell when he left, so I guess he’ll think of another way.”
Grandma Lin snorted: "He's capable and has a lot of connections. Let him figure it out. I'll see if he can get his father and his uncle out of trouble. I don't believe there's no one in the world who can control them."
Uncle Lin and Zhang Weiping came over, said a few words, and then left.
Lin Yi'an stood up: "Let's go too."
Quan Zisong added, "I have nothing to do here, so I'll go with you guys to take a look."
Zhou Mingshi: "Aren't you tired?"
Quan Zisong: "I slept the whole way, so I went out for a walk to loosen up my muscles and bones."
Lin Shuhe smiled and said, "The temple is on the mountain. You can't drive there; you can only walk. If you don't mind the fatigue, you can come with me."
Quan Zisong: "It's just climbing a mountain, what's there to be afraid of?"
A group of people crossed the small bridge behind their house and headed up the mountain.
Lin Yi-an and Zhou Ming-shi were wearing the same style of sportswear and sneakers.
Zhou Mingshi held his wife's hand in one hand and carried her bag in the other, slowly following behind his parents-in-law.
As for Quan Zisong, who was leisurely looking at the scenery, he turned his head and glanced at Zhou Lao Er's actions. He couldn't help but laugh. Getting married really makes a difference. When has Zhou Lao Er ever taken such good care of someone else?
After walking for a while, Quan Zisong couldn't help but ask, "They smashed your car, and you're still so calm?"
Zhou Mingshi: "The perpetrator has been arrested and we are still waiting for notification from the police."
Quan Zisong nodded.
After walking for a while, Quan Zisong asked, "Do you want to take a break?"
Zhou Mingshi looked him up and down and said, "Your physical strength is a bit lacking."
Quan Zisong: "I don't believe you're not tired?"
Zhou Mingshi: "Not tired."
Quan Zisong looked at Lin Yi'an: "Are you tired?"
Lin Yi'an smiled and shook her head: "I'm not tired."
Quan Zisong joked, "It's okay if you're tired, I'll have your son Mingshi carry you."
Lin Yi-an: "I climb this mountain often and I don't feel tired."
Quan Zisong: "...So I'm the only one who's tired?"
Zhou Mingshi laughed and said, "Obviously."
After resting for a while, the group continued climbing the mountain. Lin Yi'an asked Quan Zisong, "There are many good traditional Chinese medicine doctors in the capital, why did you come all this way here to see a doctor?"
Quan Zisong: "Zheng Ruru's husband cheated on her, and she's deteriorated both mentally and physically... I saw her last week and she was like a completely different person, much prettier than before. She was showing off to her friends, saying she got treatment from you..."
Lin Yi'an: "Are you talking about Miss Zheng?"
Quan Zisong: "It's her. She was cured by you and is promoting you in the industry. Just wait, your TCM clinic might see a surge of patients. I've heard that many patients, after being cured, come back to chat and relieve their worries. I think you could totally offer a membership program, charging a certain amount each year for regular checkups and treatments..."
Zhou Mingshi: "How do you know there are no members?"
Quan Zisong looked at Lin Yi'an: "Can I become a member?"
Lin Yi-an: "The health and wellness department offers memberships. Staff will create a form based on each person's health condition and notify them regularly to come for treatments. However, there aren't many members yet..."
"Don't move."
Quan Zisong suddenly called out.
Lin Yi'an was startled by him. There happened to be a stone under her feet, and she tripped over it, stubbing her ankle and hissing.
"Did you hurt your foot?" Zhou Mingshi helped her up, glancing at Quan Zisong: "What are you yelling about?"
Lin Yi-an: "I was wearing sneakers, it's not a big deal."
Quan Zisong: "There is a snake."
Zhou Mingshi looked over and asked, "Where did this snake come from?"
Quan Zisong walked over, dug around on the hillside, and pulled out a stick. He held the stick up and chuckled twice, "Look, I misread it."
Zhou Mingshi coldly tossed him a single word: "Blind!"
He squatted down and held Lin Yi'an's ankle: "Hold on to me, let me take a look."
After saying that, he took off her shoes and socks, looked at her feet, and frowned: "Your toes are red, do they hurt?"
Lin Yi'an: "It hurts a little, but it'll be fine in a bit. It's nothing serious."
Zhou Mingshi rubbed her feet, helped her put on her socks, and then carefully put on her shoes...
Quan Zisong glanced at it, then silently looked away, genuinely surprised. Had Zhou Lao Er stopped being a germaphobe? Otherwise, why would he be rubbing his wife's feet so affectionately without showing any disgust?
