Chapter 30 Fighting Infertility
On the one hand, he hoped that outsiders would leave quickly and not delay his family affairs, but on the other hand, he remembered what others said about Chen Yin's excellent medical skills, and he was worried that Chen Yin would see through his physical discomfort at a glance.
I had wanted to come last night, but I didn't expect Chen Yin to close so early.
Helpless, Sun Dawei struggled for the whole morning and had no choice but to take his wife with him.
Firstly, I really hope Chen Yin can cure Feng Ying and help her have a child. If there is no need to save the relationship, then we can divorce.
Secondly, it is...
Thinking of his purpose, Sun Dawei no longer cared about his guilty conscience and timidity. He waved his hand impatiently, asking Li Chunli and the other two who had entered the room to go away.
"Doctor Chen, I remember that outsiders are not allowed to watch when I'm seeing patients, right?"
After saying that, he glanced at where Li Chunli and the others were.
Chen Yin looked up at the concerned eyes across from her, smiled slightly, turned her head to look at her mother, who was alert as if covered in thorns, and said soothingly:
"Mom, it's okay. We shouldn't allow outsiders to observe. The patient's privacy should be protected. Go talk to Aunt Chunli and the others first. I'll be back soon."
Wu Dongmei glanced at her daughter and glared at Sun Dawei with dissatisfaction.
"Then you go ahead and see the doctor. I'll be right next to you."
As she left, she raised the wooden plug in her hand as a warning to Sun Dawei.
But Sun Dawei, who had already received Chen Yin's guarantee, didn't care about that. He smiled triumphantly, sat up on a stool beside him, crossed his legs complacently, and urged in a low voice:
"Doctor Chen, you'd better see the patient quickly. We are both in a hurry to go to work."
When the two entered the clinic, it was already afternoon working time for most units. Chen Yin had no idea how Sun Dawei could lie with his eyes open.
She continued to focus her gaze on Feng Ying and said in a serious tone:
"If you really want to be cured, then tell me everything clearly. If you hide the truth from the doctor, you'll be lucky if you can't be cured. If the wrong medicine is used, you might even die."
Each sentence struck Feng Ying's heart. She subconsciously glanced sideways in the direction of her husband, and only spoke cautiously after realizing that he did not move.
"Besides stomach pain and scanty flow, I also feel cold limbs a few days before my period. Also, I'll have my period for a day, then come back a day or two later, on and off, for half a month."
Because of this, Feng Ying did not resist when her husband and in-laws blamed her for not having children.
After all, if a woman cannot have children in her life, what future can she have?
Thinking of this, Feng Ying was overwhelmed with grief, and a string of tears slid down his sad face.
Chen Yin looked at the sudden scene in front of her at a loss, and she hurriedly handed over the toilet paper on the table.
"Hurry up and wipe it. You come to see a doctor, aren't you hoping that your body will be healed? You should be happy."
Before he finished speaking, Feng Ying seemed to have seen the only ray of light in the darkness. He held on tightly and said excitedly:
"Doctor Chen, you're saying there's still a cure for my condition, right? I've tried countless folk remedies over the years, but my stomach hasn't moved. It was only recently that I heard you could help women recuperate, so I came to see you. You must save me and let me get pregnant, or my husband won't want me anymore."
Chen Yin tried hard to pull back her hand, not understanding why Feng Ying regarded such a simple sentence as a life-saving straw.
"Don't worry, don't worry, you still need to see the doctor first."
"My hand is used to diagnose your pulse. If it's torn, who else can help you with your illness?"
Sure enough, after hearing that it concerned him, Feng Ying quickly withdrew his hand and did not dare to meet Chen Yin's eyes.
"I'm...I'm sorry, I'm just...just too scared. Doctor Chen, please don't give up on me."
"Hold your head high! All you have to do is answer my questions."
Feng Ying hunched her back and slowly raised her head, revealing a blushing face with tears on it.
Chen Yin placed the toilet paper in front of Feng Ying and continued the previous consultation.
"How are your bowel movements and urination? And how are your arms and legs?"
Feng Ying didn't expect that Chen Yin could see through her injuries at a glance. She was frightened and looked at her husband timidly, biting her lip.
"I fell, I fell accidentally."
"How is your injury? Have you applied any medicine? What's the other condition?"
…
Sun Dawei was annoyed by the repeated medical questions.
He didn't expect that seeing a Chinese doctor would be like going to police station. They would want to ask about your ancestors for eighteen generations. What does that have to do with medical treatment?
Just when he couldn't suppress his restlessness, his open mouth was suddenly blocked by Chen Yin's words.
"Please place your wrist on the pulse pillow."
After another long time, Chen Yin's frown slowly relaxed.
Feng Ying, who was always paying attention to the doctor's expression, noticed the change in expression and couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
Before she could calm down, Chen Yin quickly started asking questions.
"Did you catch a cold during your period?"
Feng Ying followed Chen Yin's words and returned to the scene in her memory. She nodded with a confused look in her eyes. "It seems that the first time I came here was in winter. I was washing clothes for my family. I didn't even know I was here. I returned home covered in blood. The water was really cold that winter."
"So your menstrual period is coming, your pores are wide open, the cold air is invading, and your liver qi is blocked, causing the menstrual flow to be tightly blocked."
Hearing the word "closed", Feng Ying's heart suddenly dropped, and he asked anxiously:
"Can I still open it?"
"Since it comes and goes, it proves that your meridians are not completely blocked. You just need to replenish the blood in your liver, relieve stagnation and dissipate wind."
Chen Yin nodded and gave an affirmative answer.
In an instant, Feng Ying's sad face bloomed into a smile of relief, and he couldn't wait to say:
"Doctor Chen, please prescribe some medicine for me quickly. I need to get this disease cured quickly."
"Your illness is simple. All you need is a modified Four Substances Decoction. It will help your body recover, but if you want to have a child, you'll need more nourishment."
Hearing this, Feng Ying's heart became nervous again, "Then is there any better prescription that can help me get pregnant?"
Facing a face that was faintly tinged with madness, Chen Yin calmly shook her head, "This kind of prescription is rare in the world. I can't do anything about it."
But seeing Feng Ying's nervous expression, she took the initiative to bring it up.
"Given your previous physical condition, it's not impossible to get pregnant, it's just a little more difficult."
As soon as these words were spoken, the sad atmosphere around the examination table came to an abrupt end.
Feng Ying's expression of self-blame was frozen on her face. She tried hard to recall what Chen Yin had said before, and vaguely realized a fact.
At that moment, her first reaction was disbelief, and she desperately wanted to get Chen Yin's affirmative answer.
She tried hard to straighten her stiff cheeks and squeezed out a terrifying smile. Her voice seemed to come from hell, so deep that it made people's hair stand on end.
"Doctor Chen, you're just saying this casually, right? You're lying to me!"
Chen Yin looked at the patient in front of her who wanted to continue deceiving himself, and shook her head decisively, puncturing the little hope in the other person's heart.
"We doctors adhere to the spirit of sincerity and dedication and will never deceive patients."
Feng Ying hadn't reacted to hearing this yet, and Sun Dawei, who was sitting next to her, was unhappy.
He suddenly stood up from the stool, trying to hide his inner panic with a ferocious move. He pointed at Chen Yin, his face trembling wildly, and said angrily:
"You, a female doctor, are actually spreading lies here to mislead the public. You say that it's the woman's fault if she can't have a child. If she can't get pregnant, she's letting down our Sun family's ancestors."
When Wu Dongmei and the others saw that something was wrong, they immediately surrounded the three people.
The smell of alcohol was so strong that Li Chunli and the others were overwhelmed. They quickly stood beside Chen Yin to prevent Sun Dawei from attacking them in a fit of rage.
But she never expected that what Chen Yin said next would be like a bolt from the blue.
"Sun Dawei, your complexion is sallow, and your voice may seem loud, but it's actually weak and listless. Plus, you're thirsty and bitter, and you keep licking your lips. A white, sticky substance has formed at the corners of your mouth."
"I can smell the alcohol on you up close. This is what the medical texts describe as a fondness for alcohol and sweet foods. I'm sure you also enjoy sweet foods. Although you're tall, you move with weakness and fatigue."
"That is to say, you have damp heat in your lower abdomen, and your vital energy is not being transformed."
"In short, you suffer from infertility."
As soon as he finished speaking, everyone looked at the tall Sun Dawei, who was 1.8 meters tall, in disbelief, and their eyes quickly focused on Sun Dawei's lower body.
You have to know that in their place, 1.8 meters tall is considered one of the tallest people in town.
This is also one of the reasons why outsiders did not dare to stop Sun Dawei when he beat his wife.
Sun Dawei covered his body parts with his hands in shame and anger, blocking everyone's gaze, and retorted with a forced face:
"Female doctor, not only are you not very skilled in medicine, you even dare to slander others! Just wait, I'll find someone to smash your shop!"
After saying this, Sun Dawei, who appeared to be aggressive but was actually weak, wanted to escape.
Unexpectedly, a figure suddenly jumped out from the crowd and grabbed Sun Dawei's clothes tightly.
"Sun Dawei, right? Ask Chen Yin, who can't have children——"
This roar almost unleashed all the bitter tears Feng Ying had shed over the past ten years.
Exploding under heavy pressure, Sun Dawei had no way to escape. He could only bend over and cover his face with his hands to avoid his wife's crazy attack.
"You know what I've eaten in order to give birth to a child for your family!"
"You want to drink boy's urine too? Go eat shit!"
“Bang!”
A slap passed through Sun Dawei's defense and hit Sun Dawei's face hard, leaving a red palm print.
But even so, Feng Ying still felt that she could not repay her pain.
She moved her mouth directly, biting Sun Dawei's waist hard, and then kicked his lower body hard with her knee.
"You still want to have children, right?! You'll never have children of your own in this lifetime. Your Sun family deserves to be extinct."
"ah--"
With a heavy blow, Sun Dawei turned into a boiled shrimp, letting out a wail that resounded through the sky.
The cry of pain coming from the depths of the soul made the ears of the people present numb.
No one expected that Feng Ying, who had always been oppressed, could burst out with such powerful strength from her small body.
Everyone present could understand this kind of venting of anger after being oppressed for a long time, and for a moment no one stepped forward to stop it.
Chen Yin saw Feng Ying's grief and anger and Sun Dawei's evasion, and continued to express her judgment.
"If I'm not mistaken, Sun Dawei, you should be experiencing dull pain in your lower abdomen and genitals, along with yellow, hot, and difficult-to-exhale urine, and occasional mucus. This is still considered the middle stage. If you wait until you start to urinate with blood, you'll be close to necrospermia. Not only will you be able to have a child, but your own life will be in jeopardy."
These words hit Sun Dawei on the head like a heavy hammer.
He didn't expect that Chen Yin had guessed most of his illness just by meeting him once.
He subconsciously covered his lower body and didn't dare to make any unnecessary movements. The bloodline of their Sun family still depended on him to be passed on, so he couldn't die yet.
Finally, Sun Dawei became so anxious and anxious about his own life that he pushed Feng Ying away from behind him.
“That’s enough!”
The sudden resistance left Feng Ying no time to react, and her body fell to the ground like a nearly broken piece of porcelain.
Wu Dongmei and the others quickly stepped forward to support her and comforted her:
"Now that you know who's at fault, it's good. Hurry up and stand up. Don't stay on the ground. It's cold and it's not good for your health."
"From now on, no one can criticize you for having children. Just put the blame on Sun Dawei."
"They used to be so arrogant and domineering over you, and now it's time for you to enjoy such a good life."
…
Listening to everyone's comfort, Feng Ying couldn't help sobbing softly. Her voice was very low, but anyone could hear the deep sadness contained in it. It was really heartbreaking to hear it.
She did not refuse the support from the crowd. Nothing was more important than her own body now.
Sun Dawei, who was forgotten on the side, had an embarrassed face with a pale complexion. He blocked out the voices from Feng Ying and the others, and with a shameless face, slowly approached where Chen Yin was.
While walking, he subconsciously glanced at his body, not understanding how Chen Yin could see through it at a glance.
Soon, Sun Dawei no longer cared about his face and sat down in the seat his wife had just occupied.
He first glanced outside the door, but didn't see anyone. He then glanced at Chen Yin and tried to lower his voice and said:
"Doctor Chen, how did you know that...that..."
When he was about to speak, Sun Dawei, a grown man, felt a little embarrassed and couldn't help but be a little surprised at Chen Yin's careless behavior before.
"Traditional Chinese medicine diagnoses patients through observation, auscultation, listening, questioning and palpation. Questioning and palpation are important, but simply observing and asking can also give us a good understanding of the patient's condition."
Chen Yin's eyes were calm, and her emotions were not affected by the previous events at all.
"Haha!" Sun Dawei smiled dryly and said flatteringly, "Doctor Chen, you are really amazing."
He had already regarded Chen Yin as the only person who could save his bloodline, and did not dare to show any threat or dissatisfaction.
His already impatient nature made him unable to endure any longer, so he asked tentatively:
"Since you, Doctor Chen, can see what's wrong with me, what medicine can I take to get better?"
Afraid of being heard, he almost pressed his upper body against the examination table.
Chen Yin stepped back unconsciously and reminded him, "Don't come close, sit back."
"Yes, yes, yes." Sun Dawei quickly leaned back and resumed his sitting position.
"Tell me. What caused you to experience the symptoms I described earlier? You must tell me the truth. I think you understand the consequences of deceiving the doctor."
At this moment, Chen Yin's tone became noticeably colder and more intimidating.
Sun Dawei was so frightened that his body shook, and he blurted out all the details like pouring beans.
"That's right. After we did that, about ten years ago in the spring, I started to feel that burning, astringent feeling you described, Doctor Chen."
As soon as these words were spoken, before Chen Yin could say anything, Feng Ying, who was immersed in sorrow, suddenly yelled at the top of her voice.
"Good for you! Sun Dawei, you had problems before you even married me. Your whole family is a marriage fraud, a marriage fraud! I'm going to sue you."
Sun Dawei was angry and annoyed by these words, but facing Chen Yin's calm eyes, he didn't dare to leave, for fear that Chen Yin would refuse to diagnose him.
"What about the others?" Chen Yin continued to ask helplessly.
…
Every time Feng Ying heard Sun Dawei's answer, she would curse.
Wu Dongmei and Li Chunli, who were listening in, also joined in complaining about the Sun family's lack of conscience, for wasting nearly ten years of a little girl's life.
Feng Ying cursed so much that she felt dizzy and lost her voice.
At this time, Chen Yin's diagnosis also came to an end.
After a detailed diagnosis, Sun Dawei's condition was just as she had guessed, he was suffering from infertility.
The reason why we have been married for many years but have no children is all his fault.
"In addition to the symptoms mentioned above, you also have reddened edges of your tongue and a slightly greasy yellow coating. The diagnosis is damp-heat in the lower burner, with stagnant vital energy. You need to use modified Zhibai Dihuang Decoction to nourish the kidneys, relieve heat, and eliminate dampness and heat."
“Okay, okay!”
Hearing that he could still be saved, Sun Dawei nodded excitedly, "Doctor Chen, please prescribe some medicine for me."
Upon hearing this, Chen Yin immediately wrote down the prescription on a piece of paper and instructed:
"I'll prescribe three doses for you, one dose twice a day. Boil three bowls of water into one bowl and drink it. After drinking it, come back for a follow-up visit as soon as possible for further treatment based on your recovery."
"Yes, yes, Doctor Chen, I will definitely come."
Thinking that he had hope of recovery, Sun Dawei no longer cared about whether it was embarrassing or not, and his attitude was extremely respectful.
Then, he tightly grasped the prescription with both hands, quickly stood up, and prepared to get the medicine from the medicine cabinet.
Unexpectedly, Chen Yin suddenly spoke up to stop him.
"Why? Aren't you taking your lover's prescription with you?"
Before he finished speaking, Sun Dawei clearly felt several burning gazes on him. He wiped his forehead guiltily and nodded repeatedly to apologize.
"I'm sorry! I'm sorry! I forgot for a moment. I'll get the prescription and the medicine right away."
After saying that, he walked towards the medicine cabinet in a panic.
Wu Dongmei realized that she should help her daughter now. She silently let go of Feng Ying's hand and slowly walked towards the medicine cabinet.
"Bring it here."
Sun Dawei smiled awkwardly and immediately handed over the two prescriptions.
"Hmph!" Wu Dongmei glanced at Sun Dawei, still unable to suppress her inner dissatisfaction. She snorted coldly, rolled her eyes, and then took the prescription.
She first prepared the modified Siwu Decoction for Feng Ying, and then it was Sun Dawei's turn.
Then he took out the abacus and started calculating the medical expenses.
As the beads clashed with each other, Sun Dawei suddenly felt nervous for some reason. Sweat began to break out on his forehead and he subconsciously licked his chapped lips.
"A total of eighty-five yuan." Wu Dongmei's cold voice sounded.
When Sun Dawei heard this number, his heart felt like it was torn open by something, and he was in so much pain that he couldn't speak.
Many people had said Huimintang's medical expenses were very cheap, so how could he spend half a month's salary on a single visit? It was heartbreaking to think about it.
But thinking of his lower body, Sun Dawei gritted his teeth and took the money out of the inner pocket of his clothes.
After giving him the money, he would still smile and say, "Thank you."
Then, he held three packets of medicine in one hand and said to Feng Ying, who was still immersed in grief:
"The medicine has been prescribed, why don't you go home?"
After resolving his major issue, Sun Dawei's patience with Feng Ying decreased, and he returned to his old ways, his voice filled with impatience and dissatisfaction.
Feng Ying's body trembled subconsciously, but soon, she seemed to realize that her current status was no longer what it used to be. She straightened her back and followed Sun Dawei away.
Seeing that they were not needed in the clinic, Li Chunli and others left.
As the few people left, what happened in the clinic spread.
The thing that Sun Dawei hoped to keep secret spread throughout Tongxi Town at an alarming speed.
Some people had previously suspected that Chen Yin's clinic could provide men's health care in addition to gynecology. With Sun Dawei's confirmation, many people's already restless hearts became even more active.
But after thinking about Sun Dawei's reputation as an impotent person in the town, he began to hesitate again.
In the days that followed, the townspeople looked at the men in confusion as they passed by the entrance of Huimin Hall several times.
At first I was confused, but then I smiled knowingly.
At this moment, Chen Yin, who had sent Sun Dawei away, didn't know what type of patient would greet her next.
She rewrote the pulse record she had just written and recorded it in a book for easy follow-up consultation and future review.
Wu Dongmei stopped what she was doing, walked quickly towards her daughter, and said a little embarrassedly:
"Yinyin, I just prescribed medicine for Sun Dawei and the medical bill was 85 yuan."
Hearing this, Chen Yin raised her head and looked at her mother in confusion.
"Who told Sun Dawei to order you around the moment he walked in? I can't stand him, so I just charged the couple five yuan each for the consultation. Sun Dawei paid for it anyway."
Seeing her mother's dissatisfaction with Sun Dawei and sympathy for Feng Ying, Chen Yin said helplessly: "Mom, don't do this next time."
"Just this once, just once."
Obviously, Wu Dongmei's anger is gradually dissipating, and she also realizes that her previous actions were wrong.
If it is exposed in the future, it will have a significant impact on the reputation of the clinic.
Afterwards, the clinic was empty for two more days.
On the third day, Sun Dawei appeared in the clinic with a bruised face and nose. As for Feng Ying, she was nowhere to be seen.
He raised one hand high, trying to cover the wound on his face, and tried to open his mouth and speak in a normal voice.
"Doctor Chen, I'm here. Can you help me check how I'm recovering?"
Listening to Sun Dawei's obviously changed voice and the injuries on his face, it was obvious that he had been beaten in the past two days, and the people who beat him were none other than those few people.
Wu Dongmei almost laughed out loud when she saw the pig-headed look on his face.
Chen Yin was also a little surprised, but when she thought of Feng Ying's injuries, her face did not show any other emotions.
Although it was a follow-up visit, the whole process was only slightly faster than last time.
After diagnosis, Sun Dawei's condition is much better than before, and his urination has improved significantly, but other symptoms still exist.
Therefore, Chen Yin changed the prescription to Qingxin Lotus Seed Drink with some modifications.
"This is the medicine you need to drink for the next three days. Go and get it."
"Okay, okay! Thank you, Doctor Chen."
Who could know better than the person involved whether his body had recovered? Knowing that his health was beginning to improve, Sun Dawei became even more respectful towards Chen Yin, his mind constantly on the subject as he spoke.
He anxiously took the prescription to get the medicine, and couldn't wait to go home to take the medicine, waiting to give birth to a child for their Sun family.
Unexpectedly, as soon as Sun Dawei walked out of the clinic, he was immediately dragged into an alley by a group of people.
He looked at his former friends with a look of surprise and asked doubtfully:
"Why did you bring me here? What fun things do you have planned to bring me along, Fourth Brother?"
Unexpectedly, the other party did not respond at all. His eyes were fixed on the medicine bag in Sun Dawei's hand, and he asked:
"Viagra, what are you holding in your hand?"
Before he finished speaking, Sun Dawei subconsciously hid the medicine behind his back. Too nervous and flustered, he forced himself to keep a straight face and stammered:
"I feel a little unwell, so I got some medicine."
As soon as these words came out, everyone burst into laughter, "Hahahaha!"
The one standing in the front even showed an "I understand" expression, patted Sun Dawei on the shoulder, and joked:
"Wei Ge, if everyone knows about this, there's no need to hide it from your brothers."
After he finished speaking, his expression began to become a little abnormal. With a stern face, he asked in a low voice, "So, how was the treatment you received?"
