Chapter 160: Developing a Treatment Plan
"She said that at the time she really thought they both had the same idea and that not having children would not affect their relationship."
"As for her husband's family, since they don't live together and rarely interact with each other, she has never had a deep understanding of their views."
"It wasn't until recent years that she realized her husband was under a lot of pressure from his family. He never told her about it, but just bore it all by himself."
"Until last year, she suddenly came to her senses one day. Perhaps it was because she was older, or perhaps her heart had softened. In short, she began to be willing to consider having a child of her own."
"But she tried many methods, took many medicines, and saw many doctors, but still no results."
"She doesn't know what to do now."
Wei Chenglu looked out the window with a dazed look.
The sky is gloomy and it looks like it's going to rain.
"My in-laws are pushing me so hard. They always say that other families' daughters-in-law have grandchildren, but we haven't seen anything yet."
She sighed softly.
"Her husband is also very anxious and irritable because of this. He doesn't say anything, but he tosses and turns at night and can't sleep. How can she not feel it?"
"You say... should my friend get a divorce? But she seems reluctant," she said softly, a sob mingling in her voice. "Her husband is so good to her. He never loses his temper, always goes along with her, and even keeps her from doing chores like washing and cooking."
Ruan Chuxia listened quietly, with Cheng Meifang sitting next to her.
The two looked at each other and knew what was going on.
The so-called friend is none other than Wei Chenglu himself.
They neither exposed nor refuted it.
But the more this happened, the more he realized that Wei Chenglu didn't need an answer at this moment.
She just needs someone to listen to her quietly.
The two remained silent and did not respond.
After a while, Wei Chenglu raised her head and chuckled softly. "Doctor Ruan," she suddenly stretched out her arm, revealing her wrist to Ruan Chuxia. "Touch it again? Can you find anything wrong now?"
Ruan Chuxia walked over as she said, sat down, and put her hand on her slightly cold wrist.
He concentrated for a moment, frowned, and spoke slowly: "Weakness in the body, coldness in the uterus, weak pulse, and especially insufficient Yang Qi, which leads to sluggish meridian circulation..."
Before he could finish his words, Wei Chenglu quickly pulled his arm back.
The expression was familiar and bitter.
Ruan Chuxia raised her head and looked at her with confusion, not understanding why she was so anxious to interrupt.
"there is none left?"
She asked back, her tone tentative and even a little unwilling.
Wei Chenglu looked towards the door with empty eyes.
I don't know how many times I've heard these diagnostic words in the past year.
Cold uterus, blood deficiency, endocrine disorders, and even depression.
The doctors kept repeating these words to her.
I took Chinese medicine for a whole year, but the effect was not very obvious.
It's not that there's no improvement, but the changes are so small that they're barely noticeable.
She originally thought that Ruan Chuxia, as Deng Chengxin's last disciple, might have different opinions from other Chinese medicine practitioners, or come up with some different conclusions.
Even if it's just a little new insight.
But unexpectedly, it was still a few familiar sentences.
Suppressing the disappointment and confusion in her heart, she took a deep breath, looked at Ruan Chuxia as if she had regained her composure, and continued to ask, "So are you going to prescribe me a bunch of Chinese medicine like they did? And tell me to go back and boil that black, sticky, bitter liquid on time?"
Ruan Chuxia shook her head, "No."
"no?"
Wei Chenglu raised his eyebrows in surprise, and his eyes suddenly lit up.
Almost every doctor who has seen the patient, including the specially invited Haicheng expert.
All that was prescribed to her were various nourishing Chinese herbal medicines.
Could it be...
What other tricks does this young Dr. Ruan have?
"You can try acupuncture and moxibustion."
Hearing this, Wei Chenglu felt a sense of loss.
It's not like she hasn't tried these two treatments before.
She had accepted both treatment options with high hopes months earlier.
But as time goes by, the effect becomes less and less ideal.
During those days, she repeatedly asked her attending physician, looked up information, and looked for folk remedies, just hoping that her condition would improve.
But reality always ruthlessly shatters her expectations one by one.
"If you're willing to trust me, I can give it a try."
She lowered her eyes, intending to reject the statement outright.
Because she has said "no" to too many people. It's not that she doesn't want to, but that she doesn't dare to hold on to hope anymore.
"Miss Wei, why not give it a try?"
Seeing Wei Chenglu looking over, Cheng Meifang added, "That little Ruan, his acupuncture skills are well-known in our family compound! Many people have sought his help, and the results are very noticeable!"
She said, gesturing.
"Village Chief Yuan was injured?"
Wei Chenglu raised her eyes slightly, her voice tentative, "Are you talking about the accident last month?"
"yes!"
Cheng Meifang nodded vigorously, with excitement in her eyes.
"Captain Yuan was seriously injured that time. He had several broken ribs and internal bleeding. His condition was extremely critical at one point, and almost everyone thought he was in critical condition."
She spoke a little faster.
"If Xiao Ruan hadn't come to his aid and controlled his condition with acupuncture in time, I don't know how serious the consequences would have been!"
These words left a vague impression in Wei Chenglu's mind.
At that time, this incident caused quite a bit of discussion in the family compound.
But at that time she was immersed in her own illness and didn't pay too much attention to it.
Now that he was mentioned again, she started to look at the man named "Xiao Ruan" with new respect.
Is this woman, who doesn't look very old, really that powerful?
Thinking back on this year.
The bitter medicinal soup that had been drunk almost filled up the entire cabinet, and the Chinese medicine residues filled the kitchen.
I once believed in a folk secret recipe and was almost poisoned and hospitalized.
In order to cooperate with different physical therapy programs, I ran between various hospitals and even took long vacations...
She has suffered a lot along the way.
Since it has come to this, it doesn’t matter if you try one more time.
What if it really works this time?
She finally mustered up the courage to look at Ruan Chuxia and said softly, "If you agree to take over my treatment, could you come to my house and give me acupuncture? I don't really want to go to the hospital."
Because the hospital has always been an oppressive place for her.
As soon as these words were spoken, Ruan Chuxia fell into a brief period of contemplation.
He lowered his head and thought for a moment, then began to weigh the pros and cons.
If she went to Wei Chenglu's house for acupuncture treatment every day, she would have to wait until after get off work.
The medical room where she worked was not far from the family building where Wei Chenglu lived.
It takes about ten minutes to get there by bike.
There really isn't much of a problem with the distance.
But what really made him hesitate was another realistic factor.
The needles should be retained for a certain period of time after each acupuncture treatment to achieve better therapeutic effects.
