Chapter 59: She is willing to share the arrogance
Although she didn't bring back more herbs this time, Shen Jiang felt quite satisfied. She was concerned about the innocent beasts, orcs, and elves in the otherworldly arena, wondering if they could make it back home safely. But all that would have to wait until she arrived in the otherworld that night.
Thinking of his packed schedule for the day, Shen Jiang took a deep breath and took a shower and changed into clean clothes.
With the arrival of summer, the temperature gradually rises and the daybreaks become earlier and earlier. When Shen Jiang dried his hair and came out, he found that it was already bright outside at around five o'clock. The air was filled with the fragrance of pomegranate flowers coming from afar, which was particularly fresh.
Shen Jiang went to the yard and practiced standing meditation for half an hour, then went to the breakfast shop outside to buy black rice porridge and buns for breakfast.
Porridge, made from grain seeds, has a warming effect, nourishing the spleen and stomach and dispelling cold. Shen Jiang is healthy and can drink anything she likes in the morning, but she simply enjoys it. After downing a bowl of warm porridge, her stomach warms and her mood improves.
Shen Jiang suddenly noticed the empty shop next door had been rented out, its exterior obscured for renovations. This caught her eye, and she wondered what her neighbor was selling. On her street, only the street groceries and hair salons saw decent business. Shops like hers, nestled at the end of the street, were struggling. Without some serious capital, it would be hard to survive more than three months.
When they arrived at the hospital, the nurse's eyes lit up when she saw Shen Jiang.
"Doctor Shen, I'm here to bring your grandma some medicine again. I see your grandma is awake, why does she still need medicine?"
Shen Jiang smiled at her and explained softly, "My grandmother is old, so I prescribed her some warming and nourishing medicine to slowly make up for the loss."
In addition to the care of the nurses in the hospital, grandma was also cared for by these angels in white who visited the ward on time to check on her condition.
"Those of us who study Western medicine have gained a lot of experience. By the way, the director said your grandmother can almost be discharged from the hospital. I'd like to ask where your clinic is located?" She seemed a little embarrassed and added, "I'm asking for my friend."
Shen Jiang understood and gave the nurse a Mingxintang business card with the address and phone number printed on it, which also had a WeChat QR code on it.
In fact, this was not the first medical staff member who asked her for her address. These days, whenever she came to see her grandmother, the families of patients in the neurosurgery ward would come out in droves and take the initiative to find her to treat their family members.
Publicity still relies on real-world cases. Shen Jiang wasn't surprised that the free clinic festival didn't attract much attention, but it did attract a significant amount of attention at the city hospital. The neurosurgery department sees a wide variety of patients, and the families of patients in beds 1 through 48 were even more excited than the doctors themselves to see the patient in bed 17 awaken from a vegetative state.
If the nurses and caregivers hadn't stopped them, people who were curious enough to come and see how bed No. 17 patient Shen Anlian was recovering would have broken down the door of the ward.
However, Shen Jiang is a human being after all, not a god. She was able to cure her grandmother's illness not only because of musk as the main medicine and the Holy Spring of Life, but also because she had read a similar case in a journal many years ago.
So at the strong request of the patients' families, although she examined those patients, because the conditions of the craniocerebral diseases were quite complicated and these patients were all patients of the municipal hospital, she did not dare to prescribe medicine for these patients who were also in a coma.
Only for a few patients she was confident in, and only after their families signed two waivers, would Shen Jiang agree to have their prescriptions filled at Mingxin Hall. She and her grandmother had already stumbled badly over this matter, and there was no way they would allow their patients to get their prescriptions filled outside.
Moreover, apart from Mingxintang, Shen Jiang dared to guarantee that there was no other place that could make the medicine musk.
One only regrets not having learned enough when one needs it. Shen Jiang felt bad when she saw the disappointed looks on the faces of other patients' families. Although she had studied Traditional Chinese Medicine for so many years and was a favorite student of both her grandmother and Dr. Mei, there were still so many illnesses in the world she couldn't treat. Learning was a never-ending journey, and she needed to work even harder.

Zhao Yuyue participated in the free medical consultation festival earlier. At that time, there were so many patients who wanted to see famous doctors. Originally, Zhao Yu came out to avoid the blind date at home, so she didn't take the free medical consultation seriously at all.
With the mentality of simply giving it a try, Zhao Yu found a vacant stall with few patients and picked a beautiful doctor to chat with him.
She hadn't expected to stumble upon a treasure: that young female doctor was truly capable. Although Zhao Yu hadn't mentioned any particular discomfort, the beautiful doctor felt her pulse like a physical exam, revealing her ailments like a tendency to stay up late and get angry easily. Zhao Yu was stunned.
Chinese medicine is really amazing.
Zhao Yu immediately asked her for a prescription, not for any other reason, but because the beautiful doctor said, "Your tendency to get angry isn't a personality issue, but rather a result of liver qi stagnation in your body."
Look at how thoughtful the beautiful doctor's words were. Just because of her eloquence, Zhao Yu also planned to help the beautiful doctor's business. Unfortunately, the beautiful doctor said that she had to go to the store to get the medicine, so Zhao Yu had to give up and planned to go to the clinic to see her when she was free.
Unexpectedly, Zhao Yu was sent on a business trip by his company for more than a week, and then he was busy with various trivial matters. It was not until today that he had time to come and get the medicine.
But she had never expected this clinic to be so popular. Even though it was a quiet street, the clinic with the Mingxintang sign was packed with patients waiting to be seen. Because there was only one bench, many patients had to stand inside.
Zhao Yu felt a little overwhelmed when she saw so many people. She hated queuing the most.

Today is the first day that Mr. Lu takes the time to come to Mingxin Hall to see patients.
Director Chen Ping started seeing patients at Mingxin Hall every Saturday half a month ago. Originally, she used her personal rest time, so she only saw patients for half a day. Unexpectedly, due to the increasing number of patients, she now sees patients all day.
Mingxin Hall was small and understaffed. Shen Jiang had no intention of engaging in any kind of hunger marketing, so he specifically asked Mr. Lu not to schedule a consultation on Saturdays, but to come at any other time.
Both parties were very satisfied with their initial impression of each other. Mr. Lu's skills were genuine, and the medicinal materials in Mingxintang store were real gold that was not afraid of fire.
Moreover, when Mr. Lu came to Mingxin Hall to see patients, he brought two apprentices with him. This way, Shen Jiang could free up to do her own thing and didn't have to be tied to his side to help him operate the computer.
It's no secret that Dr. Lu, a renowned provincial-level expert within the Chinese Medicine Hospital, possesses a remarkable charisma. Shen Jiang simply posted on WeChat Moments that he would be attending Mingxin Hall for half a day, and she was met with numerous lurking clients message her requesting appointments. Furthermore, patients who had learned of the appointments through other channels also made the journey, and Mingxin Hall's appointments quickly surpassed Shen Jiang's expectations.
Today is the first day. Both her cousin and she have no experience. They didn't expect that provincial expert Mr. Lu would be so popular.
Shen Jiang walked to the registration counter and asked, "How many numbers have been registered?"
My cousin's aunt happily made a six gesture and said, "Including the patients who haven't come yet, there are already 45 patients."
Shen Jiang was startled: "If anyone else comes later, we won't be able to give out appointments except for the patients who already have appointments."
My cousin's aunt was a little puzzled: "Why? Why did you turn away the business that was delivered to your door?"
"Mr. Lu only sees patients at Mingxin Hall for half a day. His assistant said he has to rush to another place to see patients in the afternoon. If we take too many appointments, we won't be able to see all of them. We have to be responsible for our patients."
"What if the patient makes a fuss?" My cousin's aunt is not very good at dealing with people and is afraid that she will say something wrong and ruin the business of the store.
"Tell them the truth. But you can give them a priority number for Mr. Lu's next appointment. If their condition is serious, ask them if they want to see me."
When the cousin thought about Shen Jiang still being ignored, how different she was from Dr. Lu, she couldn't help but want to comfort Shen Jiang. No, she had to help Shen Jiang get more attention later, because Shen Jiang was obviously a very good doctor.
One of Master Lu's apprentices had just returned from using the restroom. Upon hearing that the young female owner had openly snatched his master's patients, his expression suddenly changed. Reflecting that this was the other person's clinic, he remained somewhat restrained, only letting out a heavy nasal snort before angrily heading inside to find his master, his chin raised.
Seeing his expression, the aunt knew that he had misunderstood and could not help but become anxious. "Maybe he just heard the second half of the sentence and misunderstood something. Why don't you go and explain it to Mr. Lu?"
Shen Jiang wanted to say no, but seeing her aunt's anxious look, she changed her tone: "Well, I'll go in and take a look."
She went to see how Mr. Lu treated patients so that she could learn from him.
Zhao Yu was hesitating at the door when she saw the beautiful doctor talking to someone at the cashier counter. The young beautiful doctor's gentle voice suddenly appeared in her mind.
Now that I'm here, I might as well take a look. Zhao Yu walked in, intending to see what was going on inside. It wasn't until she entered a consulting room that she realized the people here weren't here to see the beautiful doctor.
It turned out that these people were all here to see an old man. Looking at the old man surrounded by patients in the clinic, Zhao Yu couldn't help but click her tongue. This doctor must be very good. Why not ask him to see her later?
This was the perfect time for Master Lu to test his apprentices. His habit was to teach his apprentices while he was seeing patients, gaining true knowledge through practice so that these young people could better remember the pathology knowledge instead of just talking about it on paper.
"Zhang Le, tell me, this patient has abdominal distension and constipation. How should we treat him?"
Zhang Le is one of Master Lu's disciples. He has been staying in the clinic all the time and has never left. At this moment, facing his teacher's questions and the curious gazes of the patients in the room, he suddenly felt like a thorn in his back, and sweat broke out on his forehead.
Seeing the teacher looking at him kindly, Zhang Le took a deep breath and said, "The patient is suffering from constipation caused by dryness, stagnation and heat. The method of clearing heat and purging should be used..."
Seeing this, Shen Jiang was a little disappointed and shook his head slightly.
Unexpectedly, this scene was seen by another disciple of Master Lu, Wang Gang, who had just snorted at her. He immediately said, "I think Doctor Shen has a different opinion. Master, why don't you ask Doctor Shen if he has any other insights?"
When Mr. Lu saw Shen Jiang coming in, he couldn't help but smile bitterly and said, "I'm sorry to have embarrassed you."
Speaking of which, his two disciples are not much older than Shen Jiang. Look at Shen Jiang's abilities, and then look at these two useless people. It's really infuriating.
Seeing that the master was so polite to the young female shop owner, Wang Gang couldn't help but get even angrier. "Master, just let her talk about it. It's no big deal if she's wrong."
He wanted to see who gave her the courage to make this female doctor, who was about the same age as him, so arrogant as to steal his master's patients.
