Xu Milu held her forehead:
"I suspect Master drank too much at once, and the medicine was too strong, which is why he's like this. A haircut at a barbershop will fix it, but I can assure you it won't harm his health."
"Why are all the seeds produced by the Red Rice Research Institute so strange? If I hadn't seen them with my own eyes, I really wouldn't have believed it."
Cui Mingjue finally breathed a sigh of relief after Xu Milu confirmed it herself, and looked at Cui Shengguo in a kind and gentle voice:
"Dad, did you hear that? It's really nothing. Senior Brother didn't do it on purpose. Besides, who told you to drink this stuff like it was alcohol, and drink half a bottle at once?"
Cui Shengguo muttered something:
"Your dad is losing all face. If those old fogies in Beijing see this, they'll laugh at me for being an old witch!"
Xu Milu quickly went up to persuade him:
"Master, it's all my fault. I brought this over without testing its medicinal properties. How about we find a barbershop first and I'll cut your hair?"
Cui Shengguo couldn't bear to scold Xu Milu, but he had a bellyful of grievances to vent, so he put on his slippers and insisted on being discharged from the hospital.
"Grandpa, don't worry. Our hospital director is already arranging a consultation with specialists to specifically study your condition. We'll do a few more tests, it'll be quick."
When the doctor saw the patient trying to run away, he quickly stopped him: "Sir, please wait a little longer. Our hospital will give you a free examination, no charge, really!"
At first, they thought the old man was joking with them. No matter how fast human tissue grows, hair can't grow this long overnight.
But just as the nurse was measuring the hair length, a group of people, dozens of pairs of eyes, were watching, and the hair had grown a bit longer.
This case is enough for the entire hospital to write papers for a year!! How can we let it escape?
"Even money won't work. My neck is so heavy with this long hair."
Cui Shengguo didn't want people surrounding him so much that he simply pulled the blanket over his head, slipped on his slippers, and walked out. Several of his disciples and grand-disciples quickly followed, and a circle of doctors and nurses also tried to persuade him to leave, forming a long queue that stretched from the emergency room to the waiting hall.
The scene was so grand that anyone who didn't know better would think something terrible had happened.
"What happened? What's wrong?"
"Wow, so many doctors? How many wounded are there?"
"What's wrong? What happened?"
"Hey, look at that old man, he's hilarious! He's wearing a wig, and he's quite unconventional."
"Wow, it looks quite impressive, a bit like the elegant and unrestrained style of ancient scholars! The old man is really energetic."
"This old man looks really young. He must be over sixty, right? He looks about the same age as his younger brother."
Ning Haiqiao, the "younger brother" he was referring to, looked completely bewildered.
The old man has only grown a little hair, so why is he being demoted in terms of seniority?
