"Could you please tell me about my grandfather's health regimen?"
As soon as he finished speaking, Ye Xingchang knew that his argument was unconvincing.
Xie Yuyao was ostensibly just a lowly sanitation worker in Qingshan Village, and even if she had been apprenticed under Master Sun, it hadn't been long enough. With so many renowned doctors in Beijing, he had no reason to seek her advice on treatment methods.
Seeing his conflicted expression, Xie Yuyao guessed what he was thinking and teased, "It's not unreasonable to try anything when you're desperate. Look, you've even gone up the mountain to collect spring water."
After saying that, she burst into laughter.
Ye Xingchang also smiled and shook his head.
Under a blue sky and white clouds, beside a jeep, a man and a woman smiled at each other. In this day and age, their genuine smiles were hard to ignore.
This scene was captured in a photograph.
It turned out that Yao Qian, upon learning that Ye Yinan had gone to "catch the adulterer," followed him out and hid in the shadows to watch the show.
At first, Ye Yinan did cause a ruckus for a while. Just when she was hoping Ye Yinan would unleash a powerful move, Xie Yuyao said something that made Ye Yinan run back to the film set.
Upon seeing Xie Yuyao's glaring smile, she instinctively raised her camera and took a picture.
With this evidence in hand, let's see how arrogant Xie Yuyao can be in the future. If she still doesn't behave, we'll send the photos to her boyfriend and let her use her looks to climb the social ladder!
That's right, Ye Yinan had already found out that Xie Yuyao's boyfriend was someone else. But knowing that it wasn't Ye Xingchang didn't make her feel relieved. Instead, she became even more convinced that Xie Yuyao had a problem with her character, flirting with other men everywhere, and even taking advantage of her boyfriend's absence to try and climb the social ladder by clinging to Ye Sanshao.
On the other side, after taking leave, Ye Yinan went to the hospital with Ye Xingchang.
On the way, she remembered her original intention and asked Ye Xingchang why he had sought out Xie Yuyao.
Just as Xie Yuyao said, Ye Xingchang said that he was reading books on traditional Chinese medicine for conditioning the body, and often encountered things he didn't understand, so he consulted Xie Yuyao, who was an expert in this field.
As for why he didn't ask anyone else, Ye Xingchang said that he had thought about it in his spare time and didn't want to make a big fuss.
The simple-minded Ye Yinan didn't think much of it and quickly believed it.
When she arrived at the hospital, she saw her grandfather practicing Tai Chi with other patients in the courtyard and immediately went up to him, saying, "Grandpa!"
"Hey! Nannan, you're here!" Commander Ye greeted her with a cheerful smile as he saw his beloved granddaughter approaching.
Seeing that her grandfather's health was better than usual, Ye Yinan finally felt a little relieved after being on edge the whole way.
Soon, the group returned to the ward, and Ye Xingchang skillfully poured the "spring water" from the military water bottle into the ward's kettle to boil it.
"Brother, what are you doing?" Ye Yinan asked curiously.
Before Ye Xingchang could answer, Old Master Ye chuckled and said, "Your third brother, for the sake of my old bones, climbs West Mountain every day to fetch spring water, saying that he painstakingly collected it and that no one else should drink it."
Ye Yinan teased, "No way, Third Brother, you believe those rumors about spring water curing all diseases?"
"It can't hurt in the end." Ye Xingchang glanced at her, his expression indifferent.
Ye Yinan turned her head and asked curiously, "Grandpa, you've been drinking it for so many days, how do you feel? Is it really effective?"
"I must say, my health is indeed getting better and better," Old Master Ye said with a smile.
Ye Yinan was stunned upon hearing this. "Is it really that amazing? Grandpa, how about we have someone do an analysis? If it really is beneficial to the human body, then we can make use of it!"
Ye Xingchang's heart tightened, and he quickly said, "I've already had it tested. This spring water is very pure and definitely tastes better than ordinary well water."
Ye Yinan blinked, and seeing that the three remained silent, she asked with a hint of doubt in her eyes, "That's it?"
"Then what else do you want?" Ye Xingchang said irritably.
"You get up early every morning and climb such a high mountain to such a far place, just so the water quality will be a little better?" Ye Yinan's voice couldn't help but rise.
Ye Xingchang put on a shameful expression: "I can't do anything else, I can only make sure Grandpa has some good water."
Ye Yinan was speechless. It was the first time she had ever realized that her third brother was so filial.
"Did you really have someone verify it?" Old Master Ye suddenly asked.
Ye Xingchang nodded: "Yes, the test report is at home now. Would you like to see it?"
As early as when this plan was adopted, Ye Xingchang had made preparations for the situation. He could not stay at the hospital for a long time, so he could only present the prepared materials when his grandfather had doubts, so as to avoid him having to undergo testing.
If the spring water really had miraculous effects, given my grandfather's character, he would definitely spread the word and benefit the people.
But now that things have come to this, we can no longer use the name of mountain spring water to transport Xie Yuyao's magical water.
He glared at his younger sister again, annoyed. If it weren't for her, the old man wouldn't have been able to focus his attention on the mountain spring water for a while.
He can hold on until his grandfather is discharged from the hospital, and then try to treat him through the herbal medicine.
Now, for safety reasons, Xie Yuyao's magical water can no longer be offered under the name of mountain spring water.
Ye Yinan sensed the oppressive atmosphere emanating from the three men and didn't understand why he was suddenly unhappy. Seeing that her grandfather was alright, she greeted him and then returned to the film set.
The old man, holding a bowl of boiling water, blew on it and asked, "Who is the girl you brought last time?"
Ye Xingchang chuckled: "Well, she has quite a few identities."
"Is she the girl you like?" The old man didn't beat around the bush anymore and asked directly.
Ye Xingchang was taken aback. "No, you're overthinking it."
"Then why did you bring her here, especially when I was having an attack?" Without a special reason, Sunzi would never be such a reckless person.
Ye Xingchang had no choice but to tell the old man about Xie Yuyao's medical career, and added at the end: "She can develop highly effective new drugs and make a name for herself by treating patients in a short period of time, which shows that she has real skills. At that time, I was in a hurry and took her over."
"But she didn't see a doctor." Old Master Ye wasn't easily fooled.
Having served in the army for many years, he had met many skilled barefoot doctors and did not look down on Xie Yuyao in any way.
He had previously mistakenly thought that Xie Yuyao was the object of his grandson's affections. Since she wasn't, it was puzzling that she left without going through any of the traditional diagnostic methods of "observation, listening, questioning, and palpation" when his grandson brought her over.
“There were other doctors present, and my mother asked her to leave first, so she left without seeing the doctor.” At that time, Ye’s mother went out to get water, and Ye Xingchang overheard her words, which came in handy now.
"Later, your pain gradually subsided, and since she was on set and it wasn't convenient for her to come out, we stopped contacting her," Ye Xingchang explained before his grandfather could ask.
"Film crew? What film crew?" The old man was bewildered.
