Su Yan didn't think too much about it and said with some worry, "Master, although the weather in Beijing is quite cold, and other people only need one thick coat, why am I still so cold even though I'm wearing cotton-padded clothes and socks? My hands and feet feel icy."
She was wearing a fleece-lined base layer, a vest, and a thick cotton-padded coat on top, but she still felt chilly.
Old Master Jue sighed inwardly, but said aloud, "The weather in Beijing is colder than in Lanzhou. Plus, your body hasn't fully recovered yet, and this is your first time experiencing winter in Beijing, so you must feel quite cold. But you silly girl, I'm giving you acupuncture, and you didn't even hesitate. You can't be so reckless outside."
“What’s there to hesitate about? You are my master. Once a teacher, always a father. Is there anything wrong with you doing acupuncture for me?” Su Yan didn’t care much. “If my third senior brother did the acupuncture for me, then I might feel embarrassed.”
She has a modern mindset, so what's wrong with showing her back?
However, in this era, regardless of age, exposing one's back in front of the opposite sex is considered a very bold and shameful act for any woman.
Old Jue really didn't know what to say.
His youngest disciple was clearly a girl, but she had the personality of a boy.
"By the way, Master, when will Jingxing's injuries be fully healed?" she asked.
Old Jue said irritably, "Why are you so worried about him? He's much healthier than you. You should take better care of yourself. If you feel cold, put on more clothes immediately. I'll give you a prescription before you go to school. You have to boil it and drink it every day, otherwise you won't be able to recover your health."
Su Yan looked embarrassed and stuck out her tongue, saying, "I know, Master."
She hasn't seen Jiang Jingxing since she returned to the courtyard house, but they talk on the phone two or three times a day.
Half an hour later.
After the needles were removed from her back, Su Yan covered herself with a blanket and curled up on the sofa to fall asleep.
The TV was very loud, but it didn't bother her at all.
Just as the old man finished taking her pulse and withdrew his hand, Su Yu appeared at the door.
Su Yu was about to speak when he saw Su Yan asleep, and immediately swallowed his words.
Old Master Jue got up and came out.
Once they reached the pavilion, the two felt comfortable talking to each other.
Su Yu frowned and said, "Grandpa, I remember Ayan slept from 5 pm yesterday until 10 am today. It's only 1 pm now, why is she asleep again?"
Jiang Jingxing was injured and on sick leave, so he had to handle many things in the group. He was extremely busy every day, but he would still take time to come back and see Su Yan every day.
Su Yan is 1.65 meters tall, but she lost weight to 80 pounds after this illness and looked sickly. Li Juan was shocked when she came back. Later, Old Man Jue said that Su Yan ate something wrong and was poisoned, but she could recover. Li Juan then let it go.
But her current situation is really worrying.
"It will be fine in three more days," Elder Jue said calmly. "We are still in the stage of excessive cold. After a week, there will be no major problems. Apart from being prone to illness, we will basically recover to normal."
He had spoken with Xie Jin the day he went to Guangzhou, and he insisted that Su Yan must receive acupuncture every day for at least six months, after which medication would be the only treatment.
Fortunately, Su Yan is still young.
Master Jue took out the acupuncture kit from the previous acupuncture session, spread it out, and pointed to the needle tip. "Half of it is black. Do you think she wouldn't be weak? Sleep is good for her."
Even though Su Yu was worried, he could only choose to trust Elder Jue, and asked again, "Then she should be fine going to school, right?"
He was worried that something might happen to his sister halfway through her class.
Old Jue glared at him. "She's weak, not dying! You'll see in a week."
"I only have one younger sister, how can I not worry?" Su Yu scratched his head. "Also, don't rush to give her so much homework."
"Do you even need to tell me? Mind your own business." Old Jue waved his hand impatiently. "Alright, go back and do your thing. Don't come near me unless it's important."
Su Yu now treats Su Yan like a fragile porcelain doll. She babbles in front of him whenever she eats too much, sleeps too much, or is in a bad mood, which has caused his blood pressure to rise these past few days!
Su Yu wasn't annoyed and said good-naturedly, "Okay, I'll go first then. Call me if you need anything."
He sneaked out; he can't stay away for too long.
He left after saying that.
Not long after, the Tao family's car stopped in front of the courtyard house.
Tao Yue, Tao Jin, Grandma Tao, and Grandma and Grandpa Li have returned.
Su Yan was still asleep, so everyone was talking to Jue Lao in the pavilion.
It was Tao Jin and Grandma Tao's first time visiting the courtyard house. They went in to see Su Yan, and came out a while later looking rather grim.
Grandma Tao was a little reserved in front of Dr. Jue, and said cautiously, "This child seems to be in much more serious condition than I heard. Dr. Jue, you must cure Ayan. She is still so young."
Jue Lao said, "That goes without saying."
"Grandma, Ayan is Dr. Jue's apprentice, so you don't need to worry," Tao Yue whispered.
She didn't know what had happened to Su Yan in the army that made her like this.
However, her older brother had privately and sternly warned her not to reveal Su Yan's affairs in the army, especially not in front of Li Juan and the others.
She wanted to know more, but her older brother refused to tell her, which made her feel bad for several days.
Tao Jin said, "Why not wait until you've fully recovered before going back to school? Or why not skip university and go straight into business? I think Ayan really enjoys doing business."
Although Su Yan doesn't have many connections, each one is a force to be reckoned with.
Her older brother alone is enough to protect her and make her business thrive.
“That won’t do! You can’t give up going to university.” Grandma Li said quickly, “It wasn’t easy for Ayan to get into this university.”
The older generation believes that going to university is much more important than making money or doing business.
A business can start anytime, but once you miss college, it's gone forever.
Tao Jin received a Western-style education and has a more open-minded outlook.
However, given the old man's strong reaction, he did not refute it.
Master Jue laughed and said, "You're right. Ayan is the most talented person I've ever met. I have high expectations for her. I hope that in the future, she will not only inherit my medical skills but also surpass me. Then I will have no regrets."
The glorious deeds of Jue Lao in serving the country are well known. He is a doctor who is difficult to book even if you have money. In addition, due to his advanced age, he now only sees leaders in high positions.
Grandma Tao used to be in poor health, and Tao Jin tried to arrange a meeting with her many times but failed.
I never expected to see him in person today!
I never expected him to have such a high opinion of Su Yan!
Grandma Tao had mixed feelings, but she was also very happy.
It now seems that the Tao family has climbed the social ladder by becoming godparents, and they will inevitably benefit from Su Yan's influence in the future.
Fortunately, her decision to adopt a godparent was a good start.
Otherwise, how could we be talking to Mr. Jue now?
