Jiang Nian also took a deep breath.
He walked to the bedside, shook Grandpa Ji's cold hand, rolled up his sleeve, and placed his fingertips on his wrist.
Ji Yanli and Ji Qiyue witnessed Jiang Nian's medical skills on her first day back at the Ji family.
Seeing Jiang Nian taking their pulse, everyone held their breath, afraid of interfering with her diagnosis.
Only the middle-aged man standing to the side looked somewhat incredulous.
He has been the Ji family's doctor for decades.
The old man was already in poor health, but for some reason he suddenly got better. Now his condition has worsened again.
Instead of rushing the person to the hospital for emergency treatment, the Ji family stayed home waiting for someone.
He thought he was waiting for some famous doctor, but it turned out he was just waiting for this high school-aged girl to come back.
This little girl is even taking the old man's pulse?
After a long while, Jiang Nian finally withdrew his hand.
I carefully put my grandfather's hand back under the blanket, looked at his eyes and tongue, and slowly exhaled.
Ji Yanli frowned and quickly asked, "How is it, Niannian? What's wrong with Grandpa?"
“Grandpa must have eaten something that conflicted with my prescription, causing excessive heat in his stomach and loss of control over his blood, which is why he vomited blood again.”
Jiang Nian raised her eyes and looked at the servant standing guard beside her, her expression icy.
"Grandpa suddenly vomited blood after lunch, right? Aunt Li, did Grandpa eat anything outside the menu for lunch?"
To ensure nutritional support and to prevent food clashes, Jiang Nianlian carefully reviewed her grandfather's daily meal plan.
If the food was prepared according to a recipe, it's impossible for it to suddenly cause my grandfather to become like this.
Li Ma had been a maid in the Ji family for over twenty years, and she was extremely nervous. She replied, "Young Miss, the old master ate only the dishes on the menu for lunch."
"But... but when we were making that tofu and pigeon soup, Miss Yuwei came to the kitchen and brought some deer antler, asking us to add some deer antler to the soup and stew it together..."
"What?!"
Ji Qiyue's eyes widened upon hearing this.
Niannian clearly said in front of them yesterday that Grandpa cannot eat deer antler now, because deer antler will cause blood to be generated and worsen Grandpa's symptoms.
Has Ji Yuwei gone mad? I already said it's not edible, but she still used it to make soup for Grandpa!
"Even if it was something Ji Yuwei brought, why didn't you check it before adding it in, Li Ma? Aren't you afraid something might happen?"
Ji Qiyue's chest heaved with anger.
“I…” Li Ma’s face turned even paler.
"Miss Yuwei said that deer antler is a good thing and good for the old man's health. We servants can't refuse Miss Yuwei's kind intentions..."
Not to mention Ji Qiyue was angry.
Ji Yanli's expression also turned ugly.
Jiang Nian clenched her fists.
She managed to pull her grandfather back from the brink of death.
Ji Yuwei, that idiot, is so arrogant that she doesn't believe her at all, pushing her grandfather into another dangerous situation!
"Where is Ji Yuwei?" A cold glint flashed in Jiang Nian's eyes, and her voice was terrifyingly cold.
Li Ma quickly replied, "Miss Yuwei went to an audition at noon and will probably be back later."
"Big brother, fifth brother, I need to give Grandpa acupuncture. You two go outside and wait for him," Jiang Nian said.
"Acupuncture?" Upon hearing this, the doctor could no longer contain himself and immediately tried to stop him.
"Mr. Ji, your younger sister is only in high school, right? I don't know if she's read a few books on traditional Chinese medicine, but what she said just now seemed quite plausible."
"But acupuncture is not something that children can play around with just because they think they know a lot about it. A single needle could cause a stroke and paralysis."
"You can't joke about the old man's safety. We should get him to the ICU as soon as possible, put him on the machines if necessary, and have him operated on if necessary. Maybe the old man can still be saved."
Western medicine treatments for my grandfather's illness not only fail to help, but only make things worse for him.
Before Jiang Nian could explain, Ji Yanli spoke coldly, "Dr. Chen, my sister doesn't think she knows everything. She was the one who saved the old man when he was on the verge of collapse the other day."
"What?" Dr. Chen's eyes widened.
Old Master Ji was previously on the verge of death, and despite seeking treatment from the best doctors in the world, the effects were minimal. His recovery was actually due to this young girl's miraculous healing skills?
Then I looked at the acupuncture kit that Jiang Nian had taken out.
The plain floral cloth bag had been washed until it was almost white, but there was an embroidered "顾" character in clerical script on it.
Gu... This surname is not common, but there is a national treasure-level master of traditional Chinese medicine in China whose surname is Gu.
Could it be that this young girl has some connection with that Master Gu?!
At Ji Yanli's command, everyone in the room withdrew.
Leave the room to Jiang Nian.
Jiang Nian spread out the acupuncture kit, held her breath and concentrated, inserting the needles one by one into Grandpa Ji's acupoints.
About twenty minutes later, all the needles were removed, and a Qi-boosting pill was put into Grandpa's mouth.
Color gradually returned to Old Master Ji's pale face.
Jiang Nian finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Fortunately, she was there, and fortunately, she returned quickly.
Otherwise, Grandpa would be in mortal danger again.
Opening the door, Jiang Nian said to her eldest and fifth brothers outside, "Eldest brother, fifth brother, Grandpa is alright, he just hasn't woken up yet. Let him rest well first."
Are you tired?
Ji Yanli stepped forward and wiped the sweat from Jiang Nian's forehead, his eyes filled with heartache.
"Not tired," Jiang Nian shook her head.
He glanced at Li Ma, who was almost crying with joy, and said with a slightly cold look, "Li Ma, from now on, everything that Grandpa eats must be made according to the recipe."
