Chapter 5: She thrives in Kyoto (V)
"Nuannuan, there's a difference between theory and practice. You've only studied medicine for half a year and you're already treating your dad's leg?
It’s not that I don’t believe you, but treating illnesses is no joke.”
Yan Fang heard her eldest daughter's words and gently advised her, knowing that she meant well but treating her leg was no trivial matter.
"Mom, my sister was so impressive on the street today. She saved an old lady who fainted due to high blood pressure in just a few seconds.
I heard someone in the crowd say that your acupuncture skills are so skillful that you can tell she has at least several years of experience. This shows that she is very talented. After only six months of training, she is already better than those doctors who have trained for several years.
Wenrou now has complete faith in her sister's medical skills and inexplicably believes that she can cure her father's leg injury.
"Afang, it's rare for a child to be so filial, so let Nuannuan be bold and give it a try.
Even if I can't cure it, it doesn't matter. Just consider it as gaining some experience. The profession of doctor requires more hands-on practice."
People who have been on the battlefield are braver than ordinary people. Wen Bin persuaded his wife to let their daughter give acupuncture, and practice makes perfect.
"Dad, don't worry, you are definitely not a guinea pig in my hands."
After Hu Xiaomeng finished speaking, she used a silver needle to prick the acupuncture point on his leg and began to drain the blood clots. Such a direct and bold action scared Wen Bin and the other two.
After draining the blocked blood, he poured some boiling water from the kettle, adjusted the temperature, and applied it to his legs.
"I don't know if it's a psychological effect, but I feel like my legs are much smoother, warmer, and lighter than before."
Wen Bin said to everyone with a smile that he actually knew that such a miraculous thing was impossible.
"Dad, if I repeat this acupuncture three more times, your leg should be back to normal.
Because the blood clots were stuck in your blood vessels and couldn't flow smoothly, they pressed on the nerves in your legs and prevented you from walking normally."
When Hu Xiaomeng was giving acupuncture to Wen Bin, she added medicine for treating injuries like lameness to the silver needles, which is why he recovered so well.
"Sister, from now on you will be the one I admire and my role model."
Hearing her sister's words, Wenrou hugged her happily. Wen Bin and Yan Fang also looked at each other with joy.
No one in the family dislikes Wen Bin's lameness, but who would refuse such a good thing if he could be a normal person?
The family was particularly happy that night because of the good news. In addition to the large and small bags of things bought by Jiang Lei, Wenrou started cracking melon seeds in advance. The atmosphere was even more lively than the Chinese New Year.
All I can say is that this evening saw some happy and some sad. The Wen family was in high spirits with laughter and joy, while the Jiang family in Kyoto was in chaos.
After Jiang Zhen told his second brothers Jiang Xing and Jiang Hua about the matter, the three brothers called Jiang Mei to Jiang Zhen's office together. After questioning, they learned that their younger sister had really given birth to a baby girl in Wenjia Village and abandoned her shortly afterwards.
"Jiang Mei, has your conscience been eaten by a dog? Because Zhou Ye didn't accept your feelings and married the daughter of the Wu family, you left the capital in anger and went to the countryside to work as an educated youth.
We thought it would be good for you to go out and gain some experience. There's no need to cling to a man who has no feelings for you.
But you, after his wife died, you came back eagerly to be his stepmother, and after you gave birth to a daughter, you abandoned your husband and child.
I tell you, you are doomed this time. You will not be able to get past Dad. He will definitely beat you to death."
Among the three brothers, Jiang Hua and Jiang Mei are the closest in age and have the best relationship. He really never thought that his sister would be so selfish.
"Third brother, is someone trying to deal with Brother Ye and dig up this matter?
Those are all old stories. You don’t know how poor Wenjia Village was. I didn’t have enough food to eat or warm clothes to wear there and suffered a lot.
How can I, a young lady from the Jiang family, spend my whole life in that small village?
Back then, it was all your fault. I wrote to you asking you to take me back to the city, but you insisted that I should train there for two years to temper my temper before coming back."
Jiang Mei, with her curly hair, fiddled with her hair and looked at her three brothers with dissatisfaction.
If her family had not been so cruel and she had not been so embarrassed, she would not have agreed to marry Wen Bin in a fit of rage. She really regretted it.
"Jiang Mei, if you were a soldier in my army, I would shoot you to death.
Are you talking like a human being? Back then, you were the one who volunteered to go to the countryside to make contributions, yet you only went there a short time before you started making a fuss about coming back.
Do you think going to the countryside is just playing house? You can go when you say you want to go and come back when you say you want to come back!
No matter what your original intention was for going to the countryside, it is not a reason for you to play with a man's feelings and abandon his husband and daughter.
Even if you don't want to live with the man from Wenjia Village anymore, you should at least discuss the divorce with him and take the responsibilities you should take instead of just walking away.
The Jiang family finally has a daughter among their grandchildren, and you don't want her. We all want her so much.
I often stay in the south, so at least let me go see her and fulfill my responsibilities as her second uncle."
Jiang Xing wished he could grow a pair of wings right now so he could go see his niece.
"Brother, what exactly is your purpose in asking me this today? Could it be that that girl came to visit? She has to bring up my shameful past, right?"
After hearing what her second brother said, Jiang Mei was really panicked.
She previously thought that someone was bringing up old matters to deal with her husband, and she believed that her brothers would help her deal with the matter.
Why did she now sound as if she was trying to get the girl she gave birth to back then to return to her ancestral home? Wouldn't that mean all the noble ladies in the capital knew about her shameful past?
"What? Is Nuannuan still your shame? You've never fulfilled your responsibilities as a mother for a single day. You refuse to repent and are stubbornly incorrigible.
There is no need for Dad to enforce family rules on you today. As the eldest brother, I, on behalf of the Jiang family ancestors, will beat you, the unfilial daughter, to death."
When Jiang Zhen heard what his little sister said, he was so angry that he picked up a stick in the corner and hit her, while his two brothers watched coldly from the side.
"Brother, please spare me, it hurts..."
Jiang Mei cried, hid and ran out the door. People who saw it were very curious about why the minister was so angry today, but no one dared to interfere in this matter. Not everyone can watch the excitement in the Jiang family.
"It's really unfortunate for our family to have someone like Jiang Mei."
Jiang Zhen was so angry that he slammed the coffee table in front of him, and it instantly broke into pieces.
“Second brother, the cost of the coffee table is on you.
Now the three of us should go back and tell Dad about this matter and have the doctor ready to watch over us."
Thinking of what his son had told him last night on the phone about the current situation of Wen Nuan's family, Jiang Zhen felt extremely guilty. The princess who should have been pampered didn't even have a decent piece of clothing.
However, in such a harsh and poor environment, she was still so hardworking and was admitted to Kyoto XX Medical University.
He immediately asked someone to retrieve Wen Nuan's files and some photos of her participating in activities at school from the medical university. She really looked like his mother.
This night is destined to be a sleepless night for the Jiang family!
